Brown (Special to The New York Age) Abbey Park, N. J.—The Colored Band of Trade assembled in Marrow's Hall on Thursday, March 22, was addressed by E. C. Brown, banker, of the firm of Brown & Stevens, Philadelphia. A large group of citizens was present. The meeting was the culmination of efforts to launch a commercial body that will protect interests of the business community. This body proposes to conduct an advertising campaign that will emphasize Abbey Park's attractions as a colored colony; to induce colored business men and women to open more business places and raise the business standard. Mr. Brown commended the organization and its work. The speaker was the most later at a banquet served at Water's Cafe. Two White Men Use Auto When Stealing Chicken Bronwijk Ga—Willie Jones is in jail and William (Bill) George is being locked for by the police, on a charge of raiding chickens. Both these men are white. Even chickens were taken from the top belonging to S. S. Storey on New-taste street, and Chief Norris and Officer Freeman, on getting word of it, found a clue that led direct to the home of George. The alleged chickens used an automobile from which a tire was missing and the wheel, made a track in the concrete highway that couldn't be missed. One chicken had formed the chief item on the breakfast menu, but its head was found and taken in for evidence. WEE SHOT HUSBAND WHO INSISTED SHE GO TO SUNDAY DANCE George Brooks, 31, a colored man who lived at 130 West 142nd street, with his wife, Evie, penned her to go to a dance on Palos Sunday, but she did not want to go. He insisted, and before the argument ended, Mrs. Brooka, who is 20, had shot and killed her husband. The woman was taken to the 11th street police station after being arrested by Detective Wesley Holding, a colored detective, who traced her to an apartment at 154 West 133rd street, 'and found her under a table.' The landlady, Mrs. Gladys Gray, told the police that Mrs. Brooks had told her, just a few minutes before the shooting: "I don't want to go to the dance, Gee, I will have to jolly him along." The police also arrested Lawrence Smith, in whose apartment Mrs. Brooks was found by Radiating charging him with being an accessory for not telling where the was Elizabeth, N. J.—Declaring that the North Jersey Medical Society violated the ethics of the profession by its action in endorsing a petition for reinstatement in the profession of Dr. I. A. Lawrence, Dr. L. Greeley Brown of 173 Madison avenue, Elizabeth, offers that as a justifiable reason for having resigned from membership in that body. The resignation of Dr. Brown was told in The Aege of March 17, in connection with that of Dr. F. F. Durrah of Plainfield, and it was stated that as these colored physicians were members of the Union County Medical Society, composed of the white physicians of that county, which body had been most active in prosecuting charges against Dr. Lawrence, they feared the action of the North Jersey Medical Association, composed of colored physicians exclusively, in the Lawrence master would jeopardize their membership in the white organization. The colored medical body had endorsed Lawrence's petition to the State Board of Medical Examiners asking for reinstatement. DR. DURRAH DENES HE AGREED TO RACE LIMIT IN PRACTICE Is Physician in Charge of White Day Nursery—On Staff of Plainfield Hospital. CHANGE IN PETITION Charges Alteration of Plea In a statement to The Age, made by Dr. L. Greeky Brown, he declares that his resignation from the society of his race professional brethren was based on principle, not fear. He cites the code of principles adopted by the American Medical Association, and he declares as a fundamental principle that the one code should govern all members of the profession, without regard to race or color. Charging, in effect, that the colored physicians of the North Jersey Medical Society was sidetracking ethics and injecting the color line, Dr. Brown declares that until Negro physicians "accept this code of ethics as a lamp to their feet and light to their pathway, they will always hold an inferior position in the ranks and file of the medical profession." Dr. Brown Explains Dr. Brown's statement is as follows: "The very fact that two men would resign from a medical society because they had reasons to believe that it would affect their standing in another society, would indicate that there is a radical difference between the principles or conduct of the two societies. "We look upon the profession of medicine as one of the noblest of all professions, and there should be but one code of ethics and principle to govern it. Because the constituents of a medical society should happen to be all colored men does not confer upon them any special privileges of side-tracking the ethics of the profession nor injecting color into its clean principles. Onotes Code of Ethics "The following is a verbatim copy of a part of the principles of medical ethics adopted by the American Medical Association: "CHAPTER I. "THE PHYSICIAN'S RESPONSIBILITY. "Section I: A profession has for its prime object the service it can render to humanity, reward or financial gain should be a subordinate consideration. The practice of medicine is a profession. In choosing this profession an individual assumes an obligation to conduct himself in accord with its ideals. "CHAPTER II. "THE DUTIES OF PHYSICIANS TO EACH OTHER AND TO THE PROFESSION AT LARGE. "ARTICLE I—Duties 40 the Profession Uphold Honor of Profession. "Section I.—The obligation on entering the profession requires, the physician to comport himself as a gentleman and demands that he use every honorable means to uphold the dignity and honor of his vocation, to exalt its standards an to extend its sphere of usefulness. A physician should not base his practice on an exclusive dogma or sedarian Rev. T. S. Harten, D. D., pastor of the Holy Trinity Baptist Church, Brooklyn, N. Y., is conducting the most successful revival that was ever conducted In the City of Brooklyn, especially when the pastor is doing his own preaching. Dr. Harten has but few equal when it comes to drawing and holding a crowd. Thousands of people of both races are turning out to hear him. He has been successful in winning over one hundred and fifty such for Churches. On Sunday evening standing room is at a premium. The Holy Trinity Baptist Church is located on Rockefeller Avenue, near Excelsior. DR. DURRAH DENIES HE AGREED TO RACE LIMIT IN PRACTICE Plainfield, N. J.—Dr. Freed F. Durrah of 310 Plainfield avenue, makes strenuous and absolute denial of the charge that he had agreed to limit his practice to the colored race, as was a story printed in The Age of March 17, telling of the resignation of Dr. Durrah and Brown, the later of Elizabeth, from membership in the North Jersey Medical Society. The main reason for the resignations, it appeared, was because the North Jersey Society, composed of colored medical men, had approved the petition for reinstatement in the profession of Dr. I. A. Lawrence of Elizabeth, while Lawrence's disbarment had been brought about through action by the Union County Medical Association, of which Brown and Durrah were the only colored members, save one. Dr. Durrah, in making denial of the charge that he had agreed to limit his practice to his own race, cites as facts that he is the physician in charge of a day nursery handling all white infants, and two baby clinics, treating both white and colored patients, besides being a member of the medical staff of the only hospital in Plainfield. Dr. Dutrah's Statement The text in full of a statement made by Dr. Durrah to The Age is as follows: "Editor of The New York Age: "Editor of The New York Age: "In answer to a recent publication about my 'agreeing to limit my practice to the colored race', I wish to say that I have never been asked to make such agreement and have not made such. I am at present practicing among both the colored and white races, being objectionable to the colorism in Plainfield, all white two baby clines consisting of both colored and white, I am also a member of the medical staff of the only hospital here. This reference about my practice is but a tangent to the real trouble which caused the publication, and it becomes necessary for me, in order to properly defend my actions and conviction about she matter, to disclose the main facts in the case from the beginning. Let me first assure you, that I do this with no intention to injure my accuser or accusers but to vindicate myself." Lawrence Asked Leniency "In May, 1919, in my own home Medical Society, Dr. I. A. Lawrence, while entertaining the North Jersey formerly of Elizabeth, resented a petition asking the State Board of Medical Examiners not to revoke his license but to grant leniency in the charges preferred against him. "Ater a lengthy debate it was signed by all present, including Dr. Brown and myself. This petition was withheld, however, until October, 1922, nearly four years, when Dr. Lawrence, without knowledge of the North Jersey Medical Society, changed the wording of the petition to read re-issue li- (Continued on Second Page) Five Stitches In Youth's Heart and He Is Getting Well Atlanta, Ga.—Glen Freeman, a young Negro with a jagged knife wound in his heart, is well on the road to recovery as a result of a remarkable operation performed by Dr. William R. Smith, a graduate of Cornell Medical School, Ithaca, N. Y., class 1919. The heart was lifted out of its normal position, five stitches taken and the heart replaced in its normal position with the flow of blood stopped. After being wounded, Freeman was rushed to Grady Hospital and placed upon an operating table in the colored ward. Dr. Smith made a triangular incision over the fifth rib, removed three incisions of the rib and made an inch and a half incision in the pericardium, the fibrous sac that surrounds the heart. Then he pushed the heart up through the incision in the pericardium, and sewed up the gash in the right ventricle. After each stitch the heart was replaced in its normal position for a while so that it would continue beating. Atlanta surgeons believe this to be the first suture of the heart attempted since 1695, when an Italian surgeon in Rome opened a man's heart and sewed it up. NEW COLLEGE OF HOSPITAL INTERNATIONAL IS MR. JAMES GATTIN For the first time in its history, Bellavus Hospital will have a young, colored woman doctor as interior, when Dr. James O. Griffin, a graduate in齿齿 1923 from the College of Physicians and Surgical enters upon her duties in that particular on July 1, 1923. Dr. Griffin is a native of High Point, N. C., and holds the degree of bachelor of arts from Hunter College, New York City. She received the internship as a result of her high standing in competitive examination. She will serve for one year. ANTI-LYNCHING BILL NOW ON STATES OF STATE OF NEW JERSEY Gov. Silzer Signed Randolph Measure on March 21, After It Passed Both Houses. $5,000 TO MOB VICTIM City or County Made Liable To Person Injured By Mob. (Special To The New York Age) Trenton, N. J.—On Wednesday, March 21, Governor Silver signed the Randolph Anti-Lynching Bill, introduced in the Senate Assembly on February 6, by Assemblyman Oliver Randolph of Essex County, and passed by that body on March 5. The State Senate also acted favorably on the Bill, and the governor's signature places it upon the statute books of the State. The bill (Assembly, No. 283) is entitled "An act to suppress mob violence" and provides that any group of individuals, five or more in number, assembled "for the unlawful purpose of offering violence" to person or property shall "be regarded and designated as a 'mob.' It makes each city or county in which act of mob violence may occur liable to the person injured by the mob or to surviving heirs, in the sum of $5,000. Sheriff Will Lone Office It provides also that sheriff and their deputy permit sheriff to be taken from their custody and lynched automatically removed from office, following proclamation to that effect by the governor, and these officers are not eligible for either election or appointment to office unless within ten days of the lynching a petition for reinstatement is filed with the governor, and it is found by the executive, upon hearing evidence, that officers did everything possible to protect the life of their prisoner. In such case, the governor may reinstate the sheriff. Text of Randolph Bill The Randolph Bill, said to be patterned upon similar laws already in effect in Ohio and Illinois, is as follows; AN ACT TO SUPPRESS MOR VIOLENCE BE IT ENACTED by the Senate and General Assembly of the State of New Jersey 1. Any collection of individuals, five or more in number, assembled for the unlawful purpose of offering violence to the person or property of any one supposed to have been guilty of a violation of the law, or for purpose of exercising correctional powers or regulative powers over any person or persons by violence, and without lawful authority, shall be regarded and designated as a "mob." 2. The term "serious injury," for the purposes of this act, shall include any injury, to property which shall cause damage to the owner thereof, or any injury to the person which shall temporarily or permanent disable the person injured from earning a livelihood. 3. Any person or persons who shall compose a mob, with the intent to inflict damage or injury to the person or property of any individual-charged with a crime, or, under the pretense of exercising correctional powers over such person or persons by violence, and without authority of law, shall be subject to a fine of not less than one hundred dollars nor more than one thousand dollars, and may be imprisoned in the county jail not less than, thirty days nor to exceed twelve months for each and every offense. 4. Any person or persons composing a mob under the provisions of this act, who shall be violence inflict material damage to the property or serious injury GRADUATING CLASS VALEBICIANIAN IS MOTHER OF TREE.

Harlem Hospital Will Give Representation In Full Degree to Race Dr. George O'Hanlon, General Medical Superintendent of Bellevue and Allied Hospitals, in Charge of Harlem Institution, Tells The Age. NEITHER INTENTION OR DESIRE TO OPERATE A "JIM CROW" NURSE SCHOOL Nine Colored Physicians Now On Out-Patient Clinic Staff Are in Line for Promotion to Regular Attending Staff, Declared Superintendent. Seeking information as to the policy adopted by the controlling authorities for the conduct of the nurse training classes recently instituted at Harlem Hospital, and which is composed at present of approximately twenty probationers, all of whom are colored, an interview was had with Dr. George O'Hanlon, General Superintendent of Bellevue and Allied Hospitals, including the Harlem, Fordham, Gouverneur, and Willard Parker Hospitals. Dr. Hanlon's attention was called to charges that had been made in articles published in a Harlem newspaper to the effect that the nurses' school at Harlem-Hospital was being conducted as a "Jim crow" affair with race segregation and separation along color lines, and he was asked for a frank and candid statement as to whether there is any basis in fact for the accusations made against the institution. "There is no desire or intention," said Dr. O'Hanlon, "to put into effect as Harlem Hospital any such policies as have been described. The institution belongs to the public, without regard to race or color, and there cannot be anything in its conduct that will operate to the disadvantage in any particular of any specific unit of the population. In this particular, the institution is open to the most rigid investigation. At the same time, it must be borne in mind that the changes being put into effect at Harlem Hospital, whereby it is intended that the race making up the larger proportion of its patients will have substantial representation in its operation, are bringing new conditions into existence. As a result, there is now in process a transitional condition which cannot be worked out in a day. The people most vitally concerned must exercise a certain amount of patience, until the process of change has been carried forward to a comparative degree of permanency. First Colored Nurse. "As a matter of fact," said the superintendent, "the question of putting in colored nurses and physician at Harlem Hospital has long been under consideration by the authorities. It only remained to work out a feasible and practical plan by which this could be done. And a beginning was made some time ago, when the first coolled nurse, a graduate from the Lincoln Hospital Nurse Training School, was added to the Harlem Hospital nursing personnel. In this connection," remarked Dr. O'Hanlon, referring to the ANSORGE GAINS 60 VOTES IN 22ND A.D. Congressman Martin C. Ansorge made his largest gains so far, in the recount that is being conducted for the congressional seat from the 21st New York District, on Tuesday, March 27, when he gained 60 votes in the 15th election district of the 22nd Assembly District. Since the recount started several weeks ago he has gained a total of 470 votes. As Royal H. Weller received a plurality of only 329 votes it seems certain that the recount will prove Ansorge the winner. There are yet 78 boxes to be opened, mostly in the colored districts, and when these are opened, Congressman Ansorge is sure that he will have an overwhelming majority. INCOME TAX PERJURY IS CHARGED AGAINST PRES. MARCUS CARVEY U.N.I.A Head Arrested Tuesday and Held in $500 Bonds. The United States authorities are again on the trail of the president-general of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, the Hon. Marcus Garvey, who is also, by self-naming, the Provisional President of the great continent of Africa. This time, Uncle Sam has an idea that Marcus did not treat him fairly in the matter of telling him just how much money came into his private exchanger during last year, and the warlords who represent the good old man have been so rude as to accuse Marcus of perjury, and they have arrested him, taken him before the stern judge, or commissioner, maybe, who was just as stern as any judge could be, who mid that His Majesty, the President-General must put in excrow sufficient valuables to equal the sum of $500 as a warranty that Uncle Sam's interests will be protected. Technically Speaking, or in words which mean the same thing, officers of the Department of Internal Revenue swore out a warrant against Garvey, charging him with perjury in the matter of filling out his income tax returns. The U. N. I. A. head was arrested on Tuesday, March 27, taken before the U. S. Commissioner and held in $600 bonds, after he had worked commission. Dr. George O'Hanlon, General Medical Superintendent of Bellevue and Allied Hospitals, when asked as to why no colored physicians wer or had been on the staff at Harlem Hospital' as internes, declared that few have attempted to take the examination for an internship, and none has been successful. He compared the situation at Bellevue, where several colored men have served as internes, and where one served as a resident surgeon, and declared that the same principle controlled at Harlem as at Bellevue, but that many more tried for the latter than for the former. Any colored physician, said Dr. O'Hanlon, who successfully took the examination for duty at Harlem Hospital would certainly be assigned to duty, with all the privileges, duties and consideration attached to the position. charge that colored nurses had never been placed over while nurses of any class, "this colored nurse was frequently in charge of wards, with white nurses under her supervision and taking orders from her." Asked as to the present status of colored graduate nurses who are attached to the hospital. Dr. O'Hanlon said that the statement that no subordinate white nurses were in charge of graduate colored nurses, as made by officials at the hospital, was correct, and that no such relation existed. It was true, he said, that a new nurse would occasionally find it necessary to seek information from one of a lower grade who was more familiar with the hospital routine, but in such cases the contact was purely advisory and in sense supervisory. Dr. O'Hanlon's attention was called to certain statements made in a letter to the newspaper making the charges, the letter being written by Mrs. Ada A. Joiner of Washington, a graduate of Provident Nurse Training School, Chicago, who had entered the Harlem Hospital School as a postgraduate for further work along certain definite lines. Mrs. Joiner was taken with diphtheria a few days after entering the school and was removed to Willard Parker Hospital for treatment. She was brought back to Harlem Hospital, but was not able physically to resume DR. BROOKS NAMES HIS SUCCESSOR IN ST. MARK'S PULPIT Congregation Told Dr. Robinson of Chicago Will Probably Be the Man. STIR PEOPLE DEEPLY Venerable Pastor, Weak From Illness, Given Loving Greeting. An audience that filled the auditorium of St. Mark's M. T. Church, West 3rd street, was stirred and thrilled by the unexpected appearance of the venerable and beloved pastor, the Rev. Dr. Wm. H. Brooks, pastor of St. Mark's for more than a quarter century, who has been absent for several weeks by reason of a severe attack of illness. Additional interest was lent to Dr. Brook's appearance by his announcement to the congregation that his successor in the pulpit there would probably be the Rev. Dr. John W. Robinson, present pastor of St. Mark's Church in Chicago. Dr. Brooks was brought in a galler walk and was not permitted to do any walking. She was assisted to the channel and made his brief address from that point. The people present could not restrain their feelings and gave evidence of the loving esteem in which Dr. Brooks is held by his large membership. As he pleas to retire from active service at chase of 'present conference year, Dr. Brooks has been named post-quarters by the St. Mark's board of trustees, and placed on a salary of $728 the amount. WALTERS REPOSED AS COMMANDER OF CHAS. YOUNG POST, 398, A.L. Alleged to Have Demanded Payment From Benefi- sion of State Vet- ef. WILL NAME SUCCESSOR Executive Committee Given Power to Fill the Vacancy. At a meeting of the Charles Young Post, No. 398, American Legion, held in the post headquarters at 2350 Seventh avenue, on Wednesday evening, March 21, the office of Post Commander, held by Thomas H. Walters, was declared vacant and the executive committed given authority to name a successor. Walters had held this position since the Charles Young Post was first organized. He was elected commander in the spring of 1922, serving until end of the year, and at, the annual meeting, in December, 1922, he was reelected for the full year's term, expiring December, 1923. According to best information obtainable, his despoal comes as the result of dissatisfaction which has existed during at least the past three months, but the action was taken only after Walters had put up a strong fight against his op-posers. The sentiment which had grown up against him was based on certain acts charged against the commander which were considered to be injurious to the Post and a reflection on the members. The first evidence of this condition, it is said, came to the surface when it was alleged that Walters was coercing veterans who were receiving aid from the state into becoming members of the Post. Beginning of Opposition In signing the papers which made it possible for these men to collect the compensation awarded by 'New York State,' it is alleged that, Commanded Walters insisted that unless they joined the Charles' Young Post he would refuse to sign any more of their claims. While other officers of the Post objected, to this method of securing members, no definite or general objection was made to Walters' action. But opposition crystallized and focused when it was alleged that, unemployed and dislabled veterans, drawing compensation from the New York State Veterans' Relief Commission, were being forced to pay a good portion of the money received from the Post for the signing of their claims. One of the charges against Commanded Walters was alleged to have drawn from $15 to $20 from each check received by disabled veterans whose vouchers he had signed or witnessed. Just how much money was involved in these transactions, it has not been possible to approximate, as officers of the Post declare that the commanded kept the only record of disabled or unemployed veterans, and no other officer had definite knowledge concerning the matter. In this connection, it is alleged that the deak used at Chas. Young Post headquarters, property of the Post, was disposed of by Commanded Walters, some two months ago, without having been authorized to do so, and that the papers and documents of the Post-containing in this deak were taken possession of by Walters and Have not been available to other officers since that time. With the impeachment and deposit of Walters, the temporary commender fell to William Service/Fell, first commander, who held over until the executive committee took action. One-Deputy-Commissioner Indicted Some disaffection is current for the Charles Young. Post because the man recommended by the Post for appointment as deputy commissioner of the New York State Veteran's Society Association, which handles the latter, has succeed Commissioner Felbridge, was not named. The Post recommended Attorney T. B. Dyatt for the position, but it is charged that Tammany influences prevailed, and John S. Brown, Jr. of 205 West 193rd street, in teacher's P. S. 147, was named, Dyatt being named down, even though he is an active Democrat. It is alleged that *Wetterworked* the homework with *Windows*. harmony with Fenburg. On Thursday, March 22, the grand jury handed down indictments against a former deputy commissioner of the State Veteran's Relief Commission, Jacob M. Schiff, said to have been a coworker with Pfeilberg, the indictments charging the filing of false vouchers as a public official and post bureau. Thirteen wounded war veterans complained to Assistant District Attorney Wilson that Schiff had withheld substantial sums from their payments each month. According to reports, however, the sum taken by Schiff was not as large as those alleged to have been demanded by Walters. One veteran complained that he had received only $22 while Schiff certified a receipt that the man had gotten $30. It is alleged by Charles Young Post man that as much as $20 was demanded from veterans getting only $40 or $45 each month. (Sponsor to The New York Age) Newark, N. J—Miss Geraldine L.

Intelligence of Africans On Level With Any People Missionaries Foom, Central Africa Declare They Have Found That the Natives Have Exceptional Learning Capacity-Lack of Home Training Is Great Handicap. The learning capacity of Negroes native to Central Africa is on a level with the average to be found among any other race including white, under the same conditions. In fact, if there is any difference it is in favor of the Central African folk, who, in many instances equal American Negroes and whites in natural capacity in spite of the woeful lack of background. These are the conclusions of Rev. Coleman C. Hartlerter and Rev. W. A. Miller, missionaries under the Board of Foreign Missiones of the Methodist Episcopal Church to the Congo Belge, and colleagues at the mission station at Kabongo in the heart of the Luba cannibal country. "It is a mistaken idea to think that these people lack the capacity of learning, or are inferior in this respect," said Mr. Hartuller, who sailed soon for Capetown dor another five years, service as missionary. "Considering the lack of background, the almost blank environment of the black children in our schools, they are surprisingly apt. I must be remembered that these little boys and girls have had absolutely no training, even of the crudest kind, to train their minds or control their attention. No home training, no example of their elders worth imitating in any intellectual way. "If any other race of people were placed in this same position for the same length of time it is very doubtful if their children would be any brighter than the pupils in our mission school in the heart of darkest Africa. Our task with them is to begin at the very bottom and build up all the fundamentals of civilization in their minds which children in America get at home and from merely living in the community." "We are teaching them practical things as well as the elements of education; continued. Mr. Hartzler. The living carvers do work any American school-boy, could well be proud of mat-making, basket-weaving, pottery and scientific gardening are taught so well that young women will be able to produce something of value and earn a better living than has been the lot of their people for generations. Natives have been developed to teach classes in these subjects, save the gardening which Mr. Hartzler personally handles. Carpentry and other forms of manual training as classified in this country, are taught by Mr. Miller." Mr. Miller, commenting on their manual instruction, said: "The task of impressing the need of exactness in fitting things together is a difficult one, the making of their axes, hoops, instruments, the building of their sample bars of poles and mud, the nature has felt the necessity of experience. In progressing beyond their present stage, it must be shown them the opportunity." After this point is passed they seem to go much faster in their development in trades. "The big point which we are demonstrating there is that these folk are undoubtedly capable of high grade work as craftsmen and of a high state of civilization, provided they have the opportunity." Mr. Heller has been in this country for the past year studying scientific play as a means of further teaching his school boys and girls in the Congo. Both he and Mr. Miller declares they have devoted their lives to the education of the Negroes of the remote African interior and are enthusiastic about the work and its rewards.

"Section 7—Physicians should expose without fear or favor, before the proper medical or legal tribunals, corrupt or dishonest conduct of members of the profession. Every physician should aid in safeguarding the profession against the admission to the ranks of those who are unfit or unqualified because deficient either in moral character or education." "When one is elevated to the rank of this noble profession, it is naturally assumed that he will be governed by the ethexis of the profession, but the action taken by the North Jersey Medical Society violated these principles. Thus I resigned. "I wish to say in conclusion—until Negro physicians accept this code of ethics as a lamp to their feet, and light to their pathway, they will always hold an inferior position in the ranks and file of the medical profession at large." DR. DURRAH DENIES HE AGREED TO RACE LIMIT IN PRACTICE cerise," instead of not to revoke jicense. "As president of the Society, I appointed a committee to find out from the State Board of Medical Examiners if the petition was the same as the first one signed by the Society, and we found it had been changed. Dr. Lawrence admitted this. "I ordered a call meeting of the Society to discuss the matter and the motion was passed to inform the secretary of the State Board of Medical Examiners, by letter, that the petition had been altered, and asked that it be not used in considering the re-issuing of Dr. Lawrence's license. "After this, a motion was made and carried that a second petition be drawn up by the Society asking that it be reissued. As a result of this action, Dr. Brown and I resigned our membership in the Society." "A₃ stated in the publication, Dr. Brown and I are members of the Union County Medical Society, being the only colored members with one exception. Our records will prove our steadfast loyalty and support to both Societies, believing that both maintained a high standard of medical ethics. Dr. Lawrence was also a member of this Society until he pleaded non velt and paid a fine which resulted in his dismissal. Upon investigation, it was proved that the Society was lenient in its dealing with the case, withholding some charges which it could have pressed to his detriment. "As long as I am accorded the privilege of membership in its body I shall remain in it, willing to abide by the right as I see it and receiving all the benefits it offers for advancement in the profession of medicine. "I should like to ask the North Jersey Medical Society if they adhered to their rules when they retained as a member of their Society one who did sifition states that a member must have a license, and be of good standing in the medical profession.

(Continued from Pied Page) Was Lowal to Both Sides HARLEN BROWN, WILL GIVE REPRESENTATION IN FULL DEGREE TO RACE (Continued from First Page) work, and later returned to her home in Washington. Charged by Mrs. Johnst. Mrs. Joelner's letter contained charges to the effect that colored nurses of the various classes were assigned to undifferent tasks with white student nurses in supervisory positions over them; that colored nurses were ignored by house physicians; distinctions in grade among colored nurses are ignored by hospital authorities, in that seats in dining room were assigned on basis of race instead of rank; that colored nurses were assigned to similar ward duty without regard to difference in their ranks; that white supervillains were more occupied in seperate subordinate than that patients secured proper attention; and that though the nurses seemed willing enough to mingle with each other without regard to race, the authorities had assigned separate reception rooms, white and colored nurses, respectively. Dr. O'Hanlon said that these charges had been refuted in replies made by Harlem Hospital officials, as published in last week's Age. Continuing, he said: "But it seems to me that the length of time—four days—that Mrs. Joiner was on duty in Harlem Hospital was hardly sufficient for her to learn much of the working of the institution. It was not probable that even though she possessed the most exceptional equipment she would acquire in four days a knowledge of conditions that would enable her to intelligently criticise or make pertinent suggestions." Service by Colored Doctors In reply to a question as to the colored physician who are giving service in connection with the out-patient clinic, and their admission to the wards of the hospital, Dr. O'Hanlon said that these physicians were in line for promotion to the attending staff as vacancies might occur. As to the possibility of these promotions eventuating, Dr. O'Hanlon, said, in reply to a question, that this depended entirely on the occurring of a vacancy on the attending staff. "It is true," said he, "that on the Harlem Hospital staff vacancies are not of frequent occurrence. The staff is comparatively small and the physicians who are attending staff have given, as a male, long periods of this connection it might be of interest to note that one of the colored physicians formerly on the out-patient clinic staff was Dr. U. C. Vincent, formerly an intern at Bellevue Hospital, and the only colored physician who has served on the Bellevue staff as a resident surgeon. Dr. Vincent recently resigned from this Harlem Hospital connection, due to the pressure of his private practice, said Dr. O'Hanlon, "but it is practically certain that if he had retained his connection with Harlem Hospital he would by this time have been appointed to the attending staff" Dr. Vincenzo's Hibernia Record Incidentally Dr. O'Hanlon spoke of the splendid service rendered at Bellevue by Dr. Vincent and said that the record of service at Bellevue Hospital of this young colored physician would go a long way toward dissipating the charge of color prejudice lodged against these city institutions. "As a matter of fact," said the Superintendent, "I have frequently seen Dr. Vincent standing in a group of internes or surgeons, he being the only colored member of the group, and some other of the crowd would have his arm thrown across the colored man's shoulder in the most friendly and companionable manner. And in a relative degree, there was the same freedom of action in his relations with the white nurses and other women attaches of the hospital." Out-Patient Clinic Staff Returning to the question of the out-patient clinic at Harlem Hospital, and the colored physicians, attached to it, the Superintendent said that Dr. Connell and other physicians on the attending staff, had extended to the colored physicians in the most cordial manner the privilege of making the rounds through the wards in association with the attending physicians, but, said Dr. O'Hanlon, "I have no record as to what advantage they have taken of this opportunity." The roster of these physicians is as follows: W. Ernest R. Alexander, Dr. Jones, W. Gretzky, Dr. D. B. Johnson, Dr. G. Alonzo Smith, Dr. P.唐树ker, Dr. William Merloi Wilkson Louis T. Wright, and Dr. Ralph Young. On the dispensary staff, classed as a part of the out-patient clinic, Dr. Arthur Pye, dentist another race representative, is on duty. Mrs. Joiner Writes Mrs. Ada A. Joiner has written The Age from Washington, asking to correct certain references made concerning her in these columns last week Mrs. Joiner was removed from the Harlem institution to the Willard Parker Hospital, suffering from dipthera, after four days of duty. Mrs. Joiner reiterates the charge that she was compelled to walk a long distance, "improperly clad, scantily protected, and with a temperature of 104, and being sent out described as suffering from diptheria," alleging that the distance by actual measurement, was "about ninety-six feet," but to a sick, shivering woman it seemed twice that distance. With reference to ranking of nurses on duty, Mrs Jointer says "the rank and grade problem has been solved by placing all colored nurses on night duty and all white nurses on day duty" and "every nurse dislikes night duty" and "the sitting room sitting, she declares that she is not a table, unless suddenly applied only to whites, as colored nurse aide and post graduates are assigned together; the newcomers, whites, are assigned to proper group, tables". Mrs. Joiner writes further as follows: "Any statements made by me concerning the work or management there were not included to discredit the work but rather to help it reach its highest possible limit by growing it from those downstreaming beneficiaries that prevent any group of young people from entering whole-heartedly into their trade and developing the best Dare is in them. Mrs. Jones, did return to Harlem Hospital, as the records will doublesle show, in the Harlem Hospital ambulance, from Willard Parker Hospital March seventh, 11:45 a. m. Remained till Friday, March ninth, 1:30 p. m. Did not go back on duty. "Mrs. Joiner made application for post-graduate medical, which in printed application blank announced two months of dispensary work. She was told on her second day by Superintendent of Nurses, that I would not be possible to give her two months in dispensary, because of rash conditions in wards. This same statement was later repeated to Mr. Joiner when he went to the hospital to make inquiry. Later Superintendent indicated there might be possibility of giving applicant some social work as that was later asked for. The first complaint arose when told that she could not get the specific post-graduate work applied for and set up in the circular sent out for publication." FREEPORT COLORED VOTERS POLL FULL VOTE IN DISTRICT (Continued from First Page) Mr. Cruickshank, getting a majority vote in the other three districts, won out by a plurality of 90; but Mr. Maxson had a clear lead in all districts except the colored district and defeated Goetschiu by a plurality of 254. The same can be said of the vote cast for police justice. Albert N. Johnson, on Citizens Ticket, who was re-elected by a plurality of 180, received District, No. I, 374 votes, against 219 on his opponent, Clinton M. Flint, on the People's Ticket, against Johnson, who is a brother of President Hilbert R. Johnson, led his opponent in the other three districts. Other candidates voted for, Treasurer S. Dimion Smith and Tax Collector D. Frank Seaman, were unopposed. Colored Voters Were Organized Several reasons may be pointed to for the vote of confidence given the Citizens' Party candidates by the people, especially the colored residents. The Get-Tongather Movement, started in Nassau County more than two months ago with Freegret as its centre, had thoroughly aroused the colored people to the point of organization and of casting their ballots for what they were worth. Their organized work fully manifested itself by the interest shown in the elections an interest never before so fully manifested. Unfortunately, too, for Mr. Christie, the impression prevailed that if he was not a member of the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan, he was being supported by members of the organization. It is alleged that a prominent lawyer in Freeport told a number of men, supporters of the Johnson ticket, at a meeting in the Southshore Hotel just prior to the election, that when Mechanics Hall on Railroad avenue was hired a short while ago, it was hired by the son of Breesport's chief of police, John N. Hartman. This meeting it is alleged proved to be a Ku Klux meeting. It was further alleged that Chief Hartman and his son was supporting Mr. Christie. The Citizens' Party nominee publicly announced that they were not, and never had been, connected with the Klan, but the colored voters saw no such announcement coming from the candidates on the People's Party ticket. It was brought out, too, in meetings held by the colored voters, that Mr. Christie's failure to appear at the dinner and celebration in the Freeport Auditorium the evening of February 12, after accepting the invitation to do so, was significant. The Village president made a contribution to this event, but wrote a letter saying he could not be present owing to a previous engagement. Mr. Johnson is a favorite son of the Village, and to some extent he benefitted by the fact that his opponent was seeking a third term. John E. Robinson, who directed the campaign, is now the Nassau County leader. He is president of the Long Island Colored Citizen' Union, which has headquarters in Freeport. Branches will be established in all villages. (Program to The New York Age) Denver, Col.-Colored citizens of Denver went "over the top" in a manner and to an extent suspasing any previous effort in any community in the country, in proportion to population, for a five days drive for a new Y. M. C. a building, conducted by R. B. DeFrance of New York, one of the international secretaries, assisted by the local executive secretary. Thomas J. Bell, resulted in more than $12,000 being raised, instead of the $5,000 which had set as the colored people's allotments. $4,000 of this sum is in cash. There was an unusually fine spirit of cooperation shown in the drive by white citizens of Denver, but most of the money and subscriptions came from the colored folks themselves. All Members of Denomination Called to Assemble at Memphis, Tenn. (Special to The New York Age) Sela, Ala.—A conference of members of the National Baptist Convention, Rev. L. K. Williams; president, to be held with Beale Avenue Baptist Church Memphis, Tenn., on Tuesday, April 3 gives promise of being one of the most important gatherings of that body yet held, according to announcement from R.

HARDING'S HAT IN THE RING HARDING'S HAT IN THE RING It required the positive action of Attorney General Daugherty to toss Mr. Harding's hat in the ring as an avowed candidate for a second term, if such an unconventional metaphor may be used to in describing the Presidential situation. Of course, if Mr. Harding desires a second nomination, the honor is his without dispute, as the influence at the command of the administration is sufficient to bring about such a result if used for that purpose. It is also true that the present administration deserves another term, if only to perform the things that have so far been left undone in the first term. The mission of the Republican administration when it regained the control of the government was to bring the country back to normalcy. Considerable has been accomplished in this direction, despite the shortcomings of the last Congress, but many pre-election promises remain to be fulfilled. So far as the Negro voters are concerned, they have received but slight consideration, either in the matter of legislation or in the appointment of the offices. Such matters are the anti-lynching measure, the restoration of sovereignty to Haiti and the Liberian than appropriation bill failed or accomplishment, despite the plight of party support made before election. The sort offices of the many filled by colored appointees under the Roosevelt and Taft administrations that have been awarded to appointees of the race are the position of Recorder of Deeds of the District of Columbia and the Minister to Liberia. After two years, delay a Collector of Internal Revenue was named for a New York district and a prominent Lousianian named for a post in the Customs service at New Orleans, but rejected by the Senate. According to the promises held out before the last elgition, the Negro voters were to regain under the Republicans all the Federal offices held under former administrations, with the addition of new places to be named. Nothing of the sort has been done. No appointments have been made outside the Liberian mission, in the diplomatic or consular service, nor any of importance in the Federal service outside of Washington. Conditions in the departments have not been improved to any degree in the matter of discrimination and segregation on account of color. The heads of the various departments have had their minds and energies so bent to the task of improving conditions along other lines, that they have failed to rectify normality in this particular. The voters of the race who contributed to the vast majority that helped put President Harding in office are restive under these conditions. It would be well for Mr. Daugherty and the other political managers of the party to give heed to this growing dissatisfaction and make good the promises held out before election. It may not be so easy to roll up the majorities of the last election for a second time. A great deal will depend on the performance of the present administration during the time allotted to it. As an amenable and well meaning Chief Executive, with the well and the courage to carry out his policies, Mr. Harding may well count upon a second term of office. But it is time that consideration should be given to those policies and promises so far overlooked or deferred by the pressure of general interests. Let us have a square deal for the Negro. SHYING BRICKS FROM AFAR Every now and then some Northern or Western critic of the race takes occasion to shy a verbal brick from a safe distance on the relations of the races in the South and the efforts made to put them on a better footing. Dr. Robert R. Moton of Tuskegee is a favorite target for this kind of sharpshooter, who takes a mischievous delight in misrepresenting his public utterances. One of these critics recently accused Dr. Moton of having "the unfortunate knack of invariably and proverbially saying the wrong thing at the wrong place and the wrong time." This makes a good many wrongs of which Dr. Moton is accused. The ground for this wholesale charge of wrong saying is given as a reported utterance made by Dr. Moton at Springfield, Ill. that move before "did the black people in America have such confidence in their white neighbors as they have now." This Western critic also as a unification of this statement "the decision of the Republican party, the plan of the Ku Klux Klan, the defeat of the Dyer bill, and the onward march of teaching plus the spread of discrimination and proscription and harrow man of Harvard." This is a glossy example picture, to be sure, and the crisis would have unbelieve that the effect of Dr. Moton's utterance is to make whom people believe that we are satisfied with these conditions. He ignores entirely the fact that Dr. Moton in all of his public addresses, in the South as well as in the North, is outspoken and consistent, in his appeal for equal justice and fair treatment of the race. In his campaign for the establishment of better relations between the races, he has aroused and received a ready response from many of the best white people of the South, whose cooperation has been one of the most promising and hopeful features of the situation. Denunciation of the wrongs and oppression inflicted upon the Negro in the South is always in order, but more than mere denunciation is needed to effect a radical change in conditions. It takes the efforts of men like Dr. Motton to meet this condition where it exists and to collect the efforts of the better thinking white people of the South in seeking a remedy. The methods and plans best adapted to bring about the results aimed at must be left to them. If they can create a friendly sentiment among their white neighbors, which will bring about better results, well and good. No same person believes that these men who are striving to bring about better relations are satisfied with present conditions. Their every utterance tells that in unmistakable terms. It may be a safe and profitable occupation to shy verbal bricks from a long distance at the oppressors of the Negro in the South, but it is neither fair nor honest to misrepresent the efforts of those who are in the thick of the fight endeavoring to secure allies in the cause of justice. If the situation is cleared to such an extent that the black people can repose confidence in their white neighbors, an appreciable gain has been scored for the cause which Dr. Moton represents. THE CHOOSING OF BISHOPS When the erudite editor of the Christian Recorder, the official organ of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, recently admitted that "it has been unfortunate that during the past twenty years, the Negro bishopric has not put forward any great race or church program," he voiced a growing dissatisfaction with the failure of the church to meet the emergencies of the times. Not only have the bishops as a body failed to formulate any great policies, but they have failed to vindicate their high office by meeting the charges of wrongdoing brought against individual bishops. This shirking of a serious duty has not tended to elevate the church in public esteem. The need of spiritual power in the Bishopric can only be met by reinforcing the ranks of the religious leadership with outstanding men of high character and breadth of vision. To accomplish this end, parochial politics and local pride or prejudice should have no part in the selection of candidates. Delegates to the general convention charged with the duty of electing new bishops should be fully imbued with the responsibility of their task. Their votes should be cast on the basis of fitness for the office and not because the candidate comes from one state or another. Let the church choose the proper kind of men for bishops, who will keep their high office free from charges of graft and oppression, scandal and other unbecoming conduct. With this basis to build upon, the spiritual power of leadership should be added, as the culmination of the need of the church and the people in these days of dwindling faith. The Star of Zion, after asking if the broadcasting of radio stermos will hurt the church, answered in this wise: A wide-awake ministry and membership actively paying and translating the vision and a gospel that puts the fire of life under the ribs of death will compete with any discovery or invention in the realm of radiation, whether that is graphophone, radiophone, moving pictures, electric vehicles or any other facility. The church must make its hindrances its own Giarots, mount them and ride them to victory. This is the spirit of the church militant, which overcomes all obstacles to its progress. In emphasizing the fact that health conditions among Negroes affect the white people of the same community through the spreading of contagious diseases, the Savannah Journal said: White men all over the nation are beginning to realize these troubles. Not long ago the building code adopted by the city council of Savannah laid stress upon the class of tenement houses that should be built. There were some objections to the adoption of the code, but those favored, it were right so far as the building of houses was concerned. The fact cannot much longer be gotten around. For "no man liveth to himself" is a pretty good building code itself. The sentiment of enlightened self-hiness and self-protection must be relied upon to help improve the housing and sanitary conditions in many Southern communities. The race must also do its part in creating and sustaining this senti- THE NEW YORK AGE THE SUPREME COURT REVERSES ITSELF. The far-reaching importance of the decision by the United States Supreme Court in the Arkansas cases has not been fully realized, we fear. Indeed, when the decision was first rendered it was taken only as another victory in the fight to save the lives of the Arkansas peonage victims. But the comments of various prominent lawyers are now making it plain that the Supreme Court not only reversed the lower court in these cases but even reversed itself. Mr. Louis Marshall, the eminent lawyer who was counsel for Leo Frank, has come out in a letter in which he says that the Supreme Court in the Arkansas cases has adopted a principle which he contended for and which the Court refused to adopt in the Leo Frank case. The principle for which Mr. Marshall contended was that a man did not have a trial by due process of law, in accordance with his constitutional guarantees, merely because he was tried in a duly constituted court if that court was not free to function. The Supreme Court refused to subscribe to that principle in the Frank case; but in the Arkansas cases Mr. Moorfield Storey, who argued the cases, won a decision which is based upon this principle: Mr. Marshall, in the statement he has made, says: "Thestone that the builders rejected has now become the chief of the corner. . . . Due process of law now means not merely a right to be heard before a court but it must be before a court that is not paralyzed by mob domination." So it can be this decision reaches far beyond the impending facts of the Arkansas peons. It extends not only to colored but to white men. However, it is especially important for Negroes because it makes possible a contest in any case in which it can be shown that the decision of a court was influenced by a mob. BRYAN ON THE NEGRO QUESTION. Some weeks ago William Jennings Bryan made a speech in Washington at a dinner of the Southern Society. He spoke on the political policy practiced in the South regarding the Negro and the franchise, and he made the declaration that the South was handling this whole question in the wiseat and in the only practical way. In a recent issue of the New York "Times" Mr. Bryan, whose statements had been commented upon and criticised very widely throughout the northern part of the country, published a statement in which he amplified the views he had expressed at the dinner of the Southern Society. The article in the "Times," from every point of view, is unworthy of the reputation which Mr. Bryan has as a statesman and a man of brains. Mr. Bryan dismisses the Declaration of Independence with a gesture that places it among matters purely academic and declares that the question in the South is, which race shall control the government and make the laws under which both shall live. In making such a statement arguing from it, Mr. Bryan does nothing more than set up a straw man. The question as to which race shall control the government is not the question, and probably never will be the question, in the South. Even if every Negro in the South were indiscriminately and in a wholesale manner given the right to vote and exercised the right, it would not be a question of which race would control the government. The Negroes are only one-third the population of the South and one-tenth the population of the United States, and with less wealth, less training, and less organization, how would the question of their controlling either the South or the nation ever arise? Mr. Bryan continues further with a wholly specious argument. He says: "Suppose, for the sake of argument, that no limitations were placed upon suffrage and that the blacks, voting in masse for officials of their own color, took charge of the Government and made laws for both blacks and whites; is there any white man who believes that the laws made under these circumstances would be better for both, or administered with more fairness than now?" But why suppose such a thing? There is not the slightest reason to believe that if Negroes were given the right to vote in the South the blacks would vote en masse for officials of their own color. Negroes in New York are given the unlimited right to vote and they vote not only for white as well as black candidates but vote very largely for Democratic as well as Republican candidates. Such statements by Mr. Bryan merely beg the question and make it difficult to believe that he is sincere. In the matter of equality of suffrage in the South, what is it that the Negro demands? Is he demanding that he be given the unlimited right to vote and that he be sustained in the exercise of that right, regardless of other considerations? Not at all. All that the Negro demands is that he be given the right as an American citizen to vote under the identical qualifications required of other citizens. He cares not how high those qualifications are made—whether they include the ability to read and write, or the possession of five-hundred dollars, or a knowledge of the Einstein Theory—just so long as those requirements are impartially demanded of white men and black men. Mr. Bryan's assumption that if the Negroes in the South voted the laws of the South would not be so good as they are and that this civilization would suffer, is one that is more than open to question. The policy which Mr. Bryan stands for, that is, for the so-called purity of the ballot in the South and the reservation of it to white men only, has been tried for the past forty years; and what are the results? Does the South stand above any other section in the country, where all men who meet the qualifications are allowed to vote? Not at all. Of all the sections of the country the South stands at the bottom intellectually, morally, and politically. Intellectually it is a desert, morally and socially it bears the distinction of being the only part of the civilized, nay, even the uncivilized world, where a human being may be burned alive at the stake. Politically it is rotten, and that goes for white men as well as black, for not only are black men disfranchised but white men dare not express their honest political opinions or act in accordance with them. Let Mr. Bryan meet the issue squarely. He says in his statement that he does not believe it is right for ignorant, unqualified black men to make laws for white men. Does he believe it is right for ignorant, unqualified white men to make laws for black men. Let him answer this question: Does he believe that the black man in the South who meets all of the requirements of citizenship should be denied the vote, and the white man who cannot measure up to such requirements be allowed the vote? We will then know just where Mr. Bryan stands. From the sophistries in his statement in the "Times" we cannot tell. It is never a very nice thing to impugn any man's motives, but, interpreting Mr. Bryan's remarks on the subject of Negro suffrage in the light of his career as a politician, we are led to believe that he is simply issuing another "Bryan policy" which he hopes will attract votes that will give him the nomination for the presidency if not the office.

Russia is again to the forefront in the political news of the world, but she is there very much in the capacity of a football. A group of women went before Secretary Hughes a few days ago to plead for the recognition of Russia. Mr. Hughes mere restated his well known position on Russia. He expressed great sympathy and concern and solicitude for the Russian people and a deep longing to see their government reconstructed and prosperous, but he expressed the conviction that this reconstruction and prosperity could come only from within Russia and not from without. Mr. Hughes also made a still more significant statement to the effect that we could not recognize Russia so long as she did not recognize her debts. He was referring to the one hundred and eighty seven million dollars which the United States loaned to the Kerensky government. It appears that one of the things Mr. Hughes cannot avoid is cant. What is the use of making sanctimonious protections of sympathy and love and interest in the welfare of Russia and at the same time refusing to allow her to help herself and better, her condition because she will not pay us some money which we claim she owes us? Russia has repudiated the money which was loaned to the Kerensky government and it appears to us that if there ever was a justification for repudiation the Russians were right in this case. The money was loaned under the following conditions: When the Russian people had grown tired of the Great War and decided they were not going to saerifice themselves any longer in the fruitless struggle which, so far as they are concerned, was instigated by the Czar, the United States sent over a commission to bolster up Kerensky who had taken over the Russian government and was making Herculean efforts to have the Russians continue fighting. At this time the Russians were throwing down their guns and walking off the battlefields. The United States commission arrived in Russia and placed these millions of dollars in Kerensky's hands in order to enable him to continue to keep soldiers on the Russian front. The money was evidently used towards that purpose, but it had very little effect. Then there finally came the revolution which overthrew Kerensky and led to the present government of Russia. The Russian people, with very good reasons, refuse to feel that they owe the United States this money. In fact, the expenditure of this money was in no respect for the best interests of Russia, but it was expended in the interest of the Allies. Mr. Hughes holds up repudiation as the cardinal of international sins. All else may be forgiven or overlooked except the non payment of a debt, just or unjust. Suppose the European states that hold unredeemed bonds of the states of the old Confederacy were to present the same sort of view about repudiation: Along with Mr. Hughes on Russia came Hamilton Holt, editor of the "Independent." Mr. Holt is touring the country in interest of American participation in the League of Nations and he is relating stories of the terrible economic conditions in Russia. In his speech at Denver Mr. Holt said: "Dr. Nansen Norwegian explorer, who knows more of the Russian situation than any other man, told me personally and repeated by statement on the floor of the League of Nations, that salted human flesh is being sold as food in the markets of Russia. "Austria is following Russia over the brink of catastrophe; Germany is following Austria. Then come Italy and France, and England is not so far behind. The most portbound thinkers in every country united in the statement that the situation in Europe is worse today than at any time since the armistice. Civilization virtually is at stake." In the first place, without any reflection upon the veracity of Dr. Nansen or Mr. Holt, we do not believe that salted human flesh is being sold in the markets of Russia. We have gotten to the place in modern propaganda where magnified and exaggerated stories are depended upon to arouse or create public sentiment. But it appears to us that Mr. Holt's illustration defeats his argument. If, with the membership of all the European powers in the League of Nations, such a condition exists in Russia as depicted in Mr. Holt's appeal, we do not see how the mere entrance of the United States into membership will alter this unspeakable condition. If Russia is reduced to the selling of salted human flesh in the public markets and if Austria is following Russia and Germany following Austria, and it is expected that Italy, France and England are not far behind, then it will take a great deal more than the membership of the United States in the League, or the League of Nations itself, to save the world. RECruITING A REGIMENT The visible progress already made in constructing the armory of the 369th Infantry is assurance that a suitable home will soon be provided for New York's crack Negro regiment of the National Guard. The building that is fast going up on the site located between Fifth and Lenox avenues, running from 142nd to 143rd streets, promises to be under roof by the middle of April, and by August 1 the regiment is expected to take possession. This is said to break all records in the work of army construction, as the building will probably be completed in a little over two years from the date it was first considered by the Armory Board. The appropriation secured for this purpose was $750,000. With the approaching completion of its military home the regiment is conducting a drive for new recruits, in order that it may take possession as a body will up to its maximum peace strength. A rigorous weeding out process has given it as a healthy nucleus for expansion a picked corps of some 250 men, fit exponents of the glorious traditions of the "Fighting Fifteenth," to which the organization has succeeded. This drive for new members offers an exegrational opportunity to the young men of the race in New York to secure the benefits of military training, and the metal forefront in the political news of the much in the capacity of a football.

The completion of the armory building will give the regiment an ample and modern drill hall, with commodious company rooms and the proper equipment for their diversified uses. All the facilities of an up-to-date club or community house will be afforded its members, with adequate facilities for work and play. This opportunity should have a special significance to young men of high school and college training, who are anxious to further the development of their mental and physical faculties by proper exercise. Col. Little is anxious to maintain the record of the 360th as a crack military unit and it only requires the proper kind of recruiting material to bring about that result. When the armory is opened, it is expected that the regiment will make a strong impression by a showing in its ranks that will fulfill all National Guard requirements. Now is the time to enlist as a member of the "Old Fifteens." KU KLUX LEGISLATORS A few weeks ago the lower house of the South Carolina legislature recorded its sympathy with the Ku Klux Klan by killing a bill to limit the activities of the order. This measure, known as the Bellamy bill, forbidding March 81, 1923. appearance on public highways or on in disguise by mask or other device and making the riot act applicable three or more appear disguised, was foisted by a vote of 83 to 24, after a bitter debate. Representative Bellamy, in opening the debate, spoke in favor of the bill, reported by a Columbia news daily. "There was a time when an invisible empire was organized and needed, but when the right of Southern people were returned to them and there was no longer a need of an invisible empire, its great leader emerged and the mask was removed and the empire dissolved. Then came others that gave it a black eye. Now, in 1923, a World War and we have agreed under the same name an organization whose published beliefs are as the Christian religion, but the undcurrent of which is stirring the religious hatred and strife." Mr. Bellamy declared that the Klan Klux Klan is "owned and operated by people that, to say the best man are not the best class of citizen." "If this bill is passed," he asserted in conclusion, "it will put South Carolina on the map, regardless of the past history." It will put South Carolina on the map as a state that relieves in law and order." Representative Holland who argued in favor of killing the bill, referring to the statement that the Klan membership is not of the best element, said: "I believe that if Mr. Bellamy were not an officer I would call him a liar." This brought out a number of protests from the floor. The speaker continued: "If I did not know this organization as I have occasion to know I would not stand here tonight and ask you to kill this bill. The idea of this organization with the high ideals of the organization that is attacked here cannot help but stand out from the rank and file. Even the advocates of the bill who denounced the revived Klan as dangerous, qualified their opposition by avowing, "I am a son of a Klanman of the old school." The great majority recorded in favor of killing the bill showed that the Klan sentiment controlled the house by a vote of over three to one. The Klan evidently has the South Carolina legislators buffaloed. So the time for putting the State on the map as believing in law and order, is necessarily peponed. --- The Nashville Globe is evidently looking ahead to a fruitful season, as it dealt out this editorial advice to eager readers: "Don't pluck the apple until it is ripe." How about the watermelon? The Spartanburg, S. C. Advertiser is a recent addition to the Negro press which makes the beast that it is read every week by 2,000 industrious people. That is something to boast of, as well as the fact that the contributing editor is entitled Prof. Ace Thompson. The Florida Sentinal, published at Jacksonville, extolled Sheriff P. M. Hagan of Putnam county as "the man of metal," for successfully resisting a mob that sought to take from his custody a prisoner. It said: Whether or not Johnson, the prisoner whom the mob were after and whom no doubt they purported to lynch, is actually guilty of the murder of Ross when someone killed in Gainville, is not the question so far as giving him protection until legally punished. Sheriff Hagan recognized that it was his sworn duty to protect him while he remained in charge for that is why persons are incarcerated in a jail before trial. Justice demands that all persons accused of crime, shall be tried by a competent court before a jury of peers and not the mob. All praise is due Sheriff Hagan for his fearlessness and bravery. The great state of Florida stands much higher in the scale of justice than before by this brave act of Sheriff Hagan. Other sheriffs should follow his example and lynchings will thereby be greatly reduced. Lynching mobs will stay clear of such sheriffs as Mr. Hagan. All of this is very true and good to show that mob law and lynching by tolerance of the local and state authorities. Until public opinion South stands back of sheriffs who force the law, there will be no continued campaign against lynching. According to the St. Louis Argus Director of Public Welfare of that has appointed a committee of civil citizens to act with him in an effort capacity. The Argus said. From the very nature of things, the aftermath of the bond issue will less occupy some serious attention of this committee. That is housing situations, parks, swimming pools, playgrounds, golf links, etc. will be questions which this committee will be asked upon to help adjust. The decisions reached will test strength and loyalty of the community. Here too, is a great temptation to low the lines of the least resistance. If there is such a man on this community who is so weak that he will fail to cert himself, he is merely a drone a felling the place of some other good and should be removed forthwith. If on the other hand, there are those who find it quite unpleasant to take man's stand for right and justice would be better for them to resign that to surrender a righteous cause, if it better to be right than to be President. The public will be interested in the personnel of this committee. They are Prof. L. J. Williams, Hutchins Lee, David D. Jones, E. L. Harris, J. Usher, J. H. Bradbury, A. E. Mather, N. Hairson, W. R. Hill and R. F. Abbott. This is an experiment in local self-government, which is fraught with possibilities for good, if carried out good faith by all parties to the traction. The responsibility for actual results remains with the city official holding the power. POR Y PARA LA COLONIA HISPANO AMERICANA QUE RESIDE EN LOS ESTADOS UNIDOS DE NORTE AMERICA (Por El Prof. LUIS TORRES COLON). EN PUERTO RICO SE ESTABAN COMETIENDO INJUSTICIAS CON LOS CAMPESINOS. El juez de la Corte Federal se va obligado a adoptar una actitud energica para subsanar las injusticias cometidas contra infelices campesinos que eran detenidos el las carceles por ofensas triviales. Ayer por la mañana comparación ante el Juez Odlin de la Corte Federal el decreto Martin Márquez, de Santureus, acusado de habrerse ocupado encima una habitación de son. El pobre hombre al serle leida la acuación dijo que era joven pero que se iba a declarar culpable a fin de que su asunto se decidiera pronto toda vez que ya hacía setenta días que estaba encarcelado y todavía no ha já celebrado juicio. El decreto Federal Hon. Mr. Odlin al oir estas declaraciones, se indignó por haber habría cometido con el acuador teniéndole preso por un período que habráse celebrado juicio, por un delito trivial como el que se le impidió. El decreto Juez Odlin le dió una serie de explicaciones al acusado y le pediría en nombre de los Estados Unidos, declarandoolo absuelto inmediatamente. Luego se dirigió al Comisionado Federal Mr. \Falbe, ante quien se habría celebrado la vista preliminar del caso y le inculpó de negligencia por haber perjudicado tales cosas ocurrieran. El Sr. Falbe se defendió la inculpación que se ha hacia y dijo que el solo habla cumplido con su deber explicado que una vez el acusado ha aido enviado adonde el fiscal corre por cuenta de responsabilidad y ya el Comisionado queda descargado de toda responsabilidad. El decreto Odlin entonces dirigió su reprimenda al Fiscal federal Mr. Wells, recommandando que en lo sucesivo tomara buena nota de que no se repitiieran esos casos. Mike Odlin, después del incidente y de las advertencias que hiciera al Fuevillo y al Comisionado Federal Mr. Falbe, dictó la siguiente orden para pedir a comisionados de la Corte Federal en la isla de Pugto Rico: "Me enterado con profundo pesar que infecciones campesinos y obreros de cáncerados de ofensas triviales han permanecido encarcelados por períodos de dreta a setenta días, sin que yo tuviera conocimiento de ello, y siendo la corte de la jurisdicción de esta Corte. He aquí en adelante, cuando usted envle un hombre a la carcel, el mismo dia con haga tal, se servirá escribirmo una carta dándome el nombre del amigo de la offensa que se le impulta, y la carcel en que ha sido confinado. Si usted de cumplir estas instrucciones, se solicitará pronunciada por comisionado de lo Excedido Unido.

Half of the people usually take the advice of the agent, who will say anything to get his commission; and the people do not pay any attention to these contracts until the hour of death, then it is too late. The majority of these concerns offer "the world fenced in" while you live, and when you die the contract does not pay for the disease which caused death. Every person must die with some sort of affliction, unless it is accidental death. Many will say that the Insurance Department will not allow illegitimate concerns to operate. You are far from being correct. The Insurance Department compells all insurance companies to have on deposit a specific amount as security to force these concerns to live up to the contract they make with you. My point is, that the contract they make with you is not worth the paper it is made on, and is always a money making scheme for the fraudulent company. I mean fraudulent in this manner: invariably, you will find printed in small letters, somewhere in these contracts, "The company will not pay for any of the following diseases, which are of a chronic nature," such as pneumonia, diabetes, and many others, which they know every individual is susceptible of. having. And one-half of those people taking these contracts never read them until something happens. — I contend just the same as the Supreme Court of our state; and that is, death is but death. It matters not how it comes. Life in extinction and if a company says they pay for death, they should pay for it, regardless as to how a person dies. There are many reliable concerns, and every one seeking protection should make it their business to see that they get in the right one. I am compelled to say for the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company of 1 Madison avenue, New York City, that if it was not for this particular company, many undertakers would have to go out of business. They not only pay their claims, but they do not give you a barrel of trouble before they do pay; and there is never any question as to the cause of death. Submit proper proofs of death and your check will always be found waiting. We have one or two other companies worthy of consideration, such as the Golden Eagle of Brooklyn, New York, and the Working Men's Cooperative Insurance Company, World Building, Park Row. I have never heard of anything wrong about these concerns. There are many more good and reliable concerns which are too numerous to mention. I am not being paid by any concern to give them a boost, only my dealings have been so extended I deem it wise to say something to the public regarding them, and it might prove of some benefit to some one. No longer than last week, I was a witness in the First District Court, Grand and Lafayette streets, against the National Accident Insurance Company, of 320 Broadway. Last June one of their policyholders died who was nine days in arrears in paying premiums, and the company refused to pay the claim. The court gave judgment against them with costs, compelling them to pay in full. I had an occasion to deal with this company in another case, wheer the policyholder died and everything was up-to-date. The manager tried to squirm out by injecting some technicality which was unknown or unboard of. The beneficiary was a woman of large physique, and the noise she made in the office with the statement that she would break up the office if they did not pay her, brought instap result—they came across." I might name two or three others which I would not accept as good security for the burial of any one. The Columbia Protective Association, the Safety Reserve, and several others, need the strictest kind of scrutiny. Now a word about our secret societies. We have many in New York. Sometimes I think too many. All of them make laws to care for their sick and assist towards funeral expenses in the time of death. These laws are made, but sometimes it takes a Philadelphia lawyer to collect the sick benefit as promised. As for the death benefit, if the poor undertaker had to depend upon it, you would not find him, because he would have gone out of business so long you would only know from where he started. The unnecessary red tape injected is unfair to the laws and constitutions and should be done away with. We never know the circumstances of a family in their hour of distress. We should speedily come to their rescue: that is the intent of the various obligations. Not to cut and carve and make obstacles so as to withhold their claims. The words so often used, "a friend in need is a friend indeed," means the same as the Golden Rule. I have on my books more than a half dozen claims, standing from thirty days to almost two years. Some of these societies have not the money, some have no interest, and some do not care. I can speak better for some of the out of town concerns than I can for some of the organizations right here in New York. I refer to a claim that I had with the Standard Life Insurance Company of Atlanta, Ga. One of their policyholders died. The policy and beneficiary were in Brinkley, Ark. The party who was to submit the proofs of death resided in Washington, D.C. Within fifteen days the claim was completed and settlement made for $1,000. I can speak well for the United Aid Benevolent Society and Insurance Company of Jersey City. Their claims are small, but they are reliable. I hope in this article I may have said something that will do some one, some good, some how. New York City. PULLMAN PORTER NEWS BY JAMES H. MOGANS A while back we wrote that the alliances of our occupation were apt to enlist the ambitions young man to the extent that he very often remained a porter. We did not mean to imply that this was the rule with our young men. We know of many cases in oppression. Some exceptionally so. One case we have particularly in mind is that of a young man from Texas. It was in the summer of 1910 or thereabouts that we first met him. He was assigned to a buffet run known as a water car which ran between Classon and Serrance, and he presented a seedy and woe-hogged figure that other porters of affluent runs were inclined to ignore observations that most all serious minded students are more or less insignificant, but the one seem to pass the first marriage on poverty. I have seen a season advanced we became better acquainted with "Doc"; that's what we called him after learning he was a medical student at Meharry College in Tennessee. To make the story short we will simply mention that "Doc" came and went every season. He did this for five or six years; during that time he pushed, pulled and hustled to get his tuition fee together by serving as a writer at one of the local hotels during his off hours. In the meanwhile, not only did he win his respect and admiration but all the natives of the village knew and admired him for his plucky struggle. It was his last season to be with us the prohibition began to assert itself, and "Doc" couldn't even get the "stick" necessary for the sale of his ginger ally and white rock on flat "water wagon" yet by a never-die-die effort he managed to get hold of enough money to finish his course and receive that coveted diploma. The next three or four years he drifted; first to Kansas, then to Missouri, finally he landed in Ohio. Today in the city of Cleveland he is one of the best, as well as one of the wealthiest medical practitioners of flat place. "Doc" struggle and rise to affluence have caused us more than any other single instance to depreciate the tendency on the part of these "fashion advisers" to attribute all four failure to the color line. It isn't the color line which throws us—it's the line of least resistance—a shortage of backbone and grit. WITH OUR GIRLS THE NEW YORK AGE DEAR GIRLS: (Including "Brownie"). As the column is no place to air grievances or to continue bickerings back and forth. I'll attend the next annual meeting of the "Mystery Girls" and then we can talk matters over. Yours are they, DEAR GIRLS: I feel as though I owe the entire column an apology, which I hope will be accepted. "Atalanta." I'm sorry for what I said. "I'll admit saying every word of it. I'm glad you "exposed" me, for it taught me a lesson about "talking" and repeating what I hear. Whether you will or not, I can only ask you to forgive me, and be the same "Atalanta" again, as it shall never happen again. "Brownnii" "Smiles" and all the rest. I'm sorry for every word of it and I hope you will forget the past and be the same jolly set. I am sure the past remarks have been very discouraging for the founder and editor. Just to think I "exclusively" was the cause of it all. Although not entirely guilty of all the gossip, I'll take the entire blame, asking the column to forgive me as the like shall never happen again BY ME. "Brownic."

"ALIAS) KID PALMER" East Orange, N. J. DEAR GIRLS: I am a little late in writing but I know you will forgive me when I say that it will not happen again. "Marshmallow," I answered your letter as soon as I got it, but you will not answer mine. Remember that "I am my friend, and a jealous friend, and thou shouldst not put another friend before me: Now I shall expect a letter soon. "Pit-a-Pat," you said that you were going to write me but you haven't yet. Please do not make it an late. Those are wonderful sermons of Mrs. Booker's that you give us. Mind that you do not become another Mrs. Booker. "Sydney," won't you please write? I have something to tell you. "Rosebud," why don't you write to the column? Have you deserted it? Well, dear girls, I won't give up hoping that every one of you will write to me. Shall I hope in vain? SPRINGTIME Springtime is here. The sun shines as bright as new gold. The children laugh. The birds sing. The flowers bloom. The trees are beautifully green. Everywhere a little bit of green is peeping out of the ground. All these things tell us that spring is here. But, not only these, but the straw hat, white yellow, blue, red, green, pink, purple and orange dresses of the girls looking like moving flowers tell us. Eager young flowers, beautiful children darting here and there with laughter and smiles tell us. Soiling is in the air, in our hearts, and in our limbs. Everything is perfect. Springtime is the most beautiful time of the year in Florida, so in the words of that famous preacher I say: Won't you come, O, won't you come? Now "Kindness," when you read this don't criticize for I already know it is not a good description of the spring in Florida, but it is the best that I can do "Atalanta," if I had your genius I could describe Florida so that you could see the trees and smell the flowers. But all the same Spring here is so beautiful that I must attempt to describe it. DEAREST SISTERS: Spring is here, the world repines, earth puts on her fields to greet her happy spring, blossome spring, winters, rain has passed away. This is Rev. H. H. Thomas' sermon. He is pastor of St. Paul's Church. Orange. His test was: "Christ Died For Our Sins" Those of us who are biblical students knows that Jesus was to come to redeem man from the curse of the broken law. Redemption was impossible without the shedding of human blood; the men who offered doses, bullocks, and many other sacrifices were made. God knew that none of these things would bring man back into proper relationship with God. It was announced that the seed of a woman shall breeze the serpent head. In time He came. We behold Him made: the rugged cross bleeding and dying not for His sins but for yours. Let us summarize His death: 1st it was an unjust death; 2nd He died a voluntary death; 3rd He died a painful and disgraceful death; 4th He died a predicted death; 5th it was a tender and pahestic death; 6th He died a purposely death; 7th He died a victorious death. Christ died for our sins. Crucifixion, greatest in history, it brought salvation to all races. He is not dead. He will live forever. What will he live for? He said that I could hear some summers say this Palm Sunday. Hosanna to the son of David, blessed he that commen in the name of the Lord. The city of Jerusalem has gone to ruin but we have the privilege of walking into the city of God and living with Him for evermore. Welcome new members. "Alpha." I would love to correspond with you. Send me your address girlle. You and other new members are welcome. "Ethel." you old dear. I sent you a letter and it can't back again. I had the wrong address. Do you know I lost that Age in which you sent: your number. Won't you forgive me this time? Girls, try and be more lovable. For many months I've been planning to write a letter to you, but I've kept putting it off until now. I thought "Pis-a-ma-ma!" Now, girl, what do you think of the frivolous, loud laughing, grim chewing, chalk painting girls; are we in that number, or are we in that model, reded, so beautiful, so good, so wonderful, so the world are up and we, the colored girls of America should be modest, and good ones. We should care for our students, good teachers, high girls, a good girl, everything around us beautiful, so how many lives we can brighten and how much good we can reden. First, we should know our responsibility in the world that we are to find the places of redemption." In my last letter I promised to send a bit of poetry. I thought the following lines might be of interest: If we have nothing else to do But talk of those who sin. It's better that we start at home And from that point begin. We all have faults; and who has not The old as well as young. Perhaps for all you know, You have fifty to their not DEAR SISTERS: Spring is here at last, and Myl, what lovely weaver we are having, I wish all my sisters from the Northland were here with me. What interesting letters the girls are writing, I enjoy them very much. "Pit-a-Pat, you dear girl, I wish that I could find words to tell you how much I enjoyed reading your letters in the column. If you continue I am sure we will have to name you "So-journer Truth," won't you girls? I had the pleasure a few weeks ago of hearing Miss Hallie Q. Brown, and she is a wonderful speaker. Now, for a word to the new members, "Sheba," "Innocent," "Alpha and," "Lill," you dear girls. How happy we are to have you among us. I am sure all the girls extend a great big welcome to you all.

Some one must be writing you up. I'll watch from now on. Ha! ha! With lots of love to all. "WILLIE MINA." DEAREST GIRLS: Seemingly ages have passed, since I last wrote you, but I haven't forgotten you for one moment. The weather in my beautiful city is just grand. I say grand with the greatest emphasis, since the trees are all covered with tiny buds and pretty green leaves, and the sun is either playing hide-and-go-seek with the clouds or just seeing how uncomfortable it can make one feel. Although occasionally one raises about six o'clock and the sun is just peeping from behind the clouds. Surely we will have a beautiful day some one remarks; perhaps I may go kelaking. About eleven o'clock it is so very warm that here and there you can hear persons remarking "Gracious me, how warm!" "Gee, but isn't it hot?" "Hey! let me out of this coat" (from folks about 200 pounds especially). And then about 2 p.m. the rain comes down in torrents, and the whole day is ruined. (Remember; just one Hal Halt.)

"Brownie," I agree with you that we should hold meetings, although it may not be convenient for us all to attend the meetings on Saturday.

The flowers are all of transparent colored cut glass and the leaves are of pure gold.

Including War Tax . 75 CENTS PAGE SIX RACE SCREEN STAR REGONES POPULAR NEW YORK FAVORITE Shingale Howard, With Beauty and Charm, Makes Appearance. Capacity audiences at the New Douglas Theatre, 142nd street and Lenox avenue, gave a spontaneously enthusiastic reception to Shingie Howard, the dainty little star of Michaux's vital drama of Michaux's original comedy with Michaux Howard the teacher, each afternoon and night for three days this week. ..... Shingie, the girl with an unusual name, is as unusual in her personality as in her name. An alluring charm exercises its influence from the moment of first contact and continuance of the association only serves to increase and ingest the feeling. Winning her way into the motion picture field was a matter of little moment to Miss Howard. In fact, it might be said that she was drawn into it almost without volition of her own. Oscar Michaux, promoting the organization of his film company, was on a stock-selling visit to a home where he saw the picture of a young girl, whose screen possibilities struck hine at once as being far above the average. Inquiry and persistence discovered the original to be Shingiey Howard, daughter of Charles F. Howard, of the Hygienic Building, Steelton, Pa., and his wife, Elcora Davis Howard, herself an educator of considerable achievement, whose charming house is at 221 North 2nd street, Steelton. It soon came about that Miss Howard was added to the Michaux forces as a leading woman. She has been with that company a comparatively Sport while, yet there has been allied already four pictures in which Shingiey has the leading role. The "The Virgin of Spindle" shows the New Douglas for the first time Sunday, Monday and Tuesday just past; "The Dungon"; "Jasper Landry's Will"; and "The House Behind the Cedars" filmed from Chestnut's story, and just completed. The young screen star is a graduate of the Steelton high school, and the tool an extension course at the University of Pennsylvania branch at Harrisburg. She is an accomplished little body, for addition to a competent scenographer, she is a musician of parts, having graduated in piano from the Pennsylvania Conservatory of Music at Harrisburg, and the speak French and Spanish with considerable facility. She is working in between whites of the picture making, in developing her ability on the speaking stage, being connected with a stock company that engages the tung not devoted to the Michaux Film Co. After the New Donga Insurance, Miss Howard returned to Steelton, but Michaux, who engaged in a new film, the scene, is engaged in being shot now at Rokoke and Norfolk, Va., and Shingye will join the company in three weeks time for the scenes in which she is to appear. The new film is "The Food's Record." The little girl is not the only one in the family deserving notice, it appears as her mother is said to be one of the race's most capable readers. A brother, Lowe, is a practicing attorney at Canton, Ohio, having graduated from Howard University, where he was a leading figure in drama presently at Durham Divinity School. A sister has graduated in music from the Pennsylvania Conservatory, and another is a graduate nurse from Lincoln Hospital, New York City. AT THE LINCOLN THEATRE Can a big thrilling episode in a picture "make" the picture? Persons who may have seen "Hearts Alfame," Reginald Baker's production, now at the Lincoln Theatre, state most emphatically that if there were not another foot of film in the picture except that used in depicting the fire scene, this scene alone would be well worth the price of admission. Twenty acres of burning pine are shown consumed by roaring, hissing flames, through which a decorative dishes, driven by Anna Q. Nilsson. Trees crash on every side the flames lick at the windows of the cab, as she clings to the throttle and piles the cab through a quarter of a mile of seething, roaring fire. Foxes and wolves, panic-stricken by the thunder of the falling trees, and the flames which leap out at them with their own cunning, rush blindly out of the forest, and two tiny bears, bears whimpering down the trunk of a tree, just as it starts to topple. A lake, mirrored in the depths of the forest like a diamond in a ruby setting, offers a refuge to a frightened doe. "Hearts Affair," a Metro picture, was produced for Louis B. Mayer. It is based on the novel, "Timber," by Harold Titus. The Chauffeurs League of Westchester Co., Inc. will hold their It is with regret we could not secure our usual trust and belief.

Clark Two Harlem theatres within ten blocks of each other are featuring musical programs this week. The Alhambra is featuring Vincent Lopez and his Hotel Pennsylvania, Orchestra, and the Lafayette is featuring Will Marion Cook directing the Clet Club Orchestra and a group of singers. Although the Hotel Pennsylvania Orchestra is one of the best of the city, the work of the orchestra under Cook is its equal, if not superior in many respects. The orchestral program ranges from jazz to high class numbers, some of which were: "Swing Along" with octet, Hungarian dance, "Beautiful Spring," and "Brazilian Butterfly," composed and directed by Will Tyers. The vocal numbers included "Swing Along" and "Oh Mayy" by the octet; "Lil Gal", PauJ Robeson; "Any old Port", "Bass" Foster; and several selections including "Eli-Eli", Georgette Harvey. Others on the program included Harry Saparo, Hartwell Cook and Bessie Arthur in dance numbers; Richard Harrison, one of the leading eclecticians of the race, in recitations from Dunbar; and Tom Fletcher as the "Sheik." At the opening performance on Monday night, the dressing Room Club was represented by a group of its members in a box and several of the best known musicians and theatrical people of the race were present to greet their old friend, Will Marion Cook. Among the number of guests is Rosemary Alex Roger, C. Luckeyh Roberts, Charles Gilin, who had just arrived in the city after a six months' tour of the West and Soutwest; William C. Elkins and others, all of whom were loud in their praise of the performance. The attraction at the Lafayette for the week of April 2 is a second edition of "Plantation at aDys," which was booked to play at this theatre several weeks ago. The cast includes Eddie Green, Adams and Tunstal, Julian Mitchel, Smith and DeForest, and a chorus of forty. An extra added attraction to this show will be Wooding's Syncopated Orchestra. NEW DOUGLASS TO SHOW FIRPO-BRENNAN FIGHT The first Harlem showing of Tex Kickarra's official pictures of the recent Firpo-Brennen fight at Madison Square Garden will be at the Langley Theater Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, April 1, 2 and 3. Louis Firpo is the heavyweight champion of South America, and since his sensational knockout of Bill Brennen, he is being groomed for a fight with Jack Dempsey for the world's heavyweight title. For this reason this picture will be of unusual interest to followers of the prize ring. Morehouse Wins Double Header From Tuskegee Atlanta, Ga.—Before the largest crowd of the season, the Morehouse Tigers won a twin bill from the Tuskegee Bears by the count of 8-3 and 3-1 respectively here on March 21. The first game started slowly, but later proved to be interesting. Madlin, the veteran right-hander of the Tiger squad, pitched a wonderful game until the ninth inning. In this inning, the Tuskegee lads pounded out 3 hits, making a total of 3 runs. Fourteen of the Tuskegee batters were turned back via the strike out route. The second game was featured by a pitching duel between Starr of Morehouse and Smith, a southpaw of Tuskegee. Heard, playing his last year with the Tiger outfield, played a great game at the keystone sack, while Williams of the Bears led his teammates in fielding and hating.

Except for the first and third rounds, Norfolk was the winner all the way. In the fifth round he had Taylor bleeding from the mouth and nose and on the verge of a knockout. For the next two rounds it appeared that Taylor would be knocked out any season. They are now undisputed champions in basketball of the South. The team besides winning from other school, has won from the South Carolina State College, which team had the championship of South Carolina State College; also from the strong Americus team of Georgia and the State Normal School of Montgomery.

ADMISSION minute, but he rallied after the seventh and lasted the fight out. Several weeks ago, Taylor knocked out two men on the same night, each in one round. For this feat his reputation as a hitter grew fast, but against Norfolk he showed no unusual power as a hitter, and when he did try to put over a hard blow he usually missed. His weight was announced as 180 and that of Norfolk 175. Joe Jeanette, the only licensed colored referee in the state, refereed the bout. however, the Commonwealth team took the lead early and outplayed their opponents throughout the game. "Streets" Grant played as a forward, in George Fial's place, and did better in that position than he usually does at center.
