Dr. Williams said in part, Dr. Booker I. Washington knew and understood that emancipation gave no property in and by itself. Freeing a man accomplishes nothing unless he himself from sloth and ignorance. The Negro must do better than the white man or he could not. If a white man goes wrong people say every race has its wanderer and wastrels, but if a Negro goes wrong people say you can not do anything with a colored man. Under T. Washington saw before others that liberty did not necessarily bring thrift. Ignorance brings industrial inefficiency and on inefficiency stable economic success can be. The Southern Negro, like the Western farmer, did not increase land ownership in the last ten years as fast as in previous decades. Industrial limitations exist in various trades that have come since the war. This is an economic disadvantage.

REPUBLICAN PARTY
LEADERS IN HARLEM
DISTRICTS RENAMED
Harmony was the keynote of the Republican County Committee held Tuesday night, April 8, in the various districts.
In the 13th A. D., Valentine J. Hahn was reelected leader, with Miss Sarah Schyler Butler as his associate. A committee consisting of Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler, president of Columbia University, Fred R. Moore of The New York Age, and Mrs. Valentine Hahn escorted the leader to his chair.
Harmony was most recently continued as leader in the 19th A. D., and Miss Minnie Mattes of 124 West 122nd street, was elected as associate, filling the place made vacant by death, Miss Cotter, the former committee member, Arthur B. Murtham was elected director of the committee in the 21st A. D., opposition to the leadership of Robert S. Conklin failed to materialize, and he was reelected, with Mrs Margaret Sealy as associate leader. There was, however, some feeling manifested in the election of a colored associate leader, the election resulting in the defeat of Assemblyman John Clifford Hawkins, the former leader being Chuck W. B. Mitchell of 110 West 137th street, who won by a two- to one vote.
John F. Heim of 545 West 142nd street was elected secretary. Miss Lulid M. Fisher, 55 West 139th street, assistant secretary, and George W. Elkins, 32 Hamilton Terrace, treasurer

Flushing Society Club Ends Popular Queen Contest When Leaders Are Not Of Society
But Business Men and Other Citizens Immediately Arrange for Another Popular Queen Contest, and Offer Valuable Prizes—Winner to Be Crowned as "Miss Flushing" in Public Fete.
Flushing, N. Y.—The fashionable Green Twig Society, which was conducting a contest for the naming of a queen in Spanish fiesta for benefit of the Flushing Hospital, brought the contest to a halt and declared the voting at an end when it was discovered that the girls leading in the voting were not members of the Green Twigs, and

making that Mr. Willetts the dormitory manager told him that his teacher would cause friction, but the school authorities absolutely refused to accede to the request.
Then came a demonstration which showed the actual spirit behind the request made by the white students—on Thursday night of last week, a flaming Ku Klux cross was set up on the campus.
Following the burning cross, the afternoon mall brought Mr. Willett's letter, typewritten on a plain sheet of paper, on a card, and pasted on to the letter sheet, a small print of a Knight of the Klan, hooded and masked, and three printed lines—

All sorts of reports and specials were be ascertained by the reason for stopping the contest and it was pretty well understood that the basis of that action lay in the fact that the only guy who might be described as a "secret girl" stood something like No. 11 in the voting. Officers of the Green Twig have been quoted as saying that the contest was cured because of misunderstanding, while the chairman of the contest committee is reported as saying that "It stirred up a great deal of bitterness, discord and trouble."

port in this controversy.
J. B. Rucker, a southerner, is chairman of the hall committee which asked for Well's removal. There are ten members of the committee, and already two of them, B. B. Alderson and B. B. Biddy, the School of Journalism, and Dr. C. M. Mantell, have resigned from the committee. Dr. Mantell voiced disgust and indignation at the action of the committee, affirming, with emphasis, "I don't want anything more to do with it." Dean Herbert E. Hawkes, of Columbia University, to whom the committee presented its petition, declared emphatically that the colored student would not be disturbed.
Many Commendatory Letters.
As against the Ku Klux Klan letter, Mr Wells has received hundreds of letters from prominent individuals of both races and from a number of organizations, expressing sympathy with him in matters of his life and of his work and urging that the rest of the nation be influenced by any antagonism directed toward him because of race or color.
The full text of the letter received by Wells from the alleged Ku Klux Klan is as follows.

DRY LAW ENFORCERS IN NEW YORK ARE NOT HONEST OR EFFICIENT
Col. Hayward Says He Can Count on Fingers officials Who Are Sincerely Trying to Enforce Law.
Colonel William Hayward, United States District Attorney, speaking before the Laymen's Association of the Methodist Episcopal Church at St James M. E. Church, 126th street and Madison avenue, Friday, April 4, said that officials in New York who "have honestly and sincerely attempted to enforce prohibition are so few that I could count them on the fingers of my two hands." Conempt for the prohibition law and for all Federal laws had increased ever since this state repealed its enforcement act, said Colonel Hayward, who added that if those who caused its repeal could do so without "losing face" they would put it back on the statute books.
"The public now has about as much respect for a prohibition agent as they have for a constable," said the District Attorney. It is due to wet propaganda. If I had been a fanatic against prohibition before, I would be in favor of it now. The wets have said that prohibition was made a law during the absence of our soldiers in France. I will stake my life that if prohibition had been put to vote it would have been favored overwhelmingly."
Colonel Hayward reported to the church members that "every Congress is growing dryer and that 'prohibition is on the homestretch and is going to win'"
HARRY WILLS SIGNS TO FIGHT BARTLEY MADDEN IN L.I. CITY
Agreement Is Reached On Monday to Stage Bout Planned for Newark at Queensboro Stadium.
On Monday, April 7 Harry Wills and Bartley Madden signed an agreement to go through with their proposed bout at the Queensboro Stadium, Long Island City. The bout is to be promoted by Simon Flaherty and will take place on May 13.
It was twice postponed because of the accident to Wills hands. At first it was planned for Connecticut and later for Newark N J. Madden is a comparatively small heaviest weight, weighing less than 180 pounds and of medium height. He has a reputation for being tough and game and it is thought that he is a good man to help Wills get into condition for more important later in the season. A recent way of Harry Wills hands showed that she has utterly healed and made her oral health good. He has improved his general condition. It is thought that he will make his first work of Madden
One of the most aggravated cases which has come to the attention of those interested concerns the property at northwest corner of 138th street and Seventh avenue, alleged to be owned by Robert W. Willis, a member of Mt. Olivet Baptist Church in West 35rd street. Formerly, Mr. Willis himself conducted an vegetable, fruit and dairy business on this property, but the store has been occupied suitably as a lunch room, the eating table being conducted by colored men, with wearing girls as waitresses. But the same room, at the opposite side, there is conducted also one of the boldest and biggest bootlegging businesses in Harlem Morning, noon and night, the bar over which hooch is served is strung by customers ninety-nine out of every hundred being Negroes. The bootlegger, however, is an Italian.
Disclaims Knowledge of Business.
When questioned as to his attitude toward leasing his property for use in an illegal business, Mr Wilts disclaims any knowledge of the nature of the business, declaring that he had given a lease on the place with the understanding that a legitimate lunch room business was to be conducted at the time it is alleged. Mr Wilts denied that he received notice from any source as to the illegal nature of the business being conducted in his property.
On the other hand, it is asserted by officers of the Police Department, attached to the 38th Precinct in West 133th Street, that not only has notice as to the kind of business being carried on at this location been served upon Mr. Willis as proprietor and landlord but that a similar notice has also been served upon his wife OM M F Zunz Church have expressed surprised at the alleged attitude of Mr. Willis, who is president of the John C Price Lyceum, a largely attended literary auxiliary at that church, which meets each Sunday afternoon and before which many of the most prominent men and women of the grace have appeared from time to time Many of the church folks declare that Willis ought resign as president of the Lyceum Police officials declare that unless Mr. Willis is landlord, wakefulness and effort from the legging tenant he is apt to suffer loss of revenue from the building of an unbounded period following efforts to secure a parceledunction from the Federal Court in case of a conviction against the bench seller.
Place Has Been Ralded.
It is reported that several raids have been made on the place, but with little success as the stock of hooch is kept in an iron safe, and the lack of a warrant has made it impossible to win at the opening of this deposit. Inquiry made among the church folks has elicited the fact that there is a strong current of condemnation against church folks lending themselves to the fatties and illicit business of hooch selling. They declare that it is compatible with Christian association and example that it implies hypocrisy and that it is decidedly an impounder of income getting even more it is conceded that the hooglerger will pay much more as renal than mature businesses can afford to pay. There is a report current, which The Age has not been allied with, the offer that Mr. Wallis has assumed a defiant attitude in the matter, and that instead of being in an anger of the nature of business being natural to the building, he is alleged to have made a remark that he did not are that his tenants did so long as he got the money. It is thought by those who have watched the course of events in con-
Helped with the touch selling in Marina and, the recent activity, shown by two ministers of all denominations, that landlords who are connected with various churches, but who are like their properties for occupancy. By legal businesses, will be called upon to explain for their churches a reason for such course of action.
The Willis building is given both to business and residential occupancy, on the balcony floor in the rear is the office of The Tattler, a weekly publication, while in the front, on the second floor, Dr. Ernest McDonald conducts a dental office. Other floors are given prior to apartments. In case an injunction should obtain against the bootlegging joint on the street floor, it is not apt to inconvenience occupants of the other floors, as their entrance on 1838 street, and can be cut off entirely from the saloon quarters.
Protest Against Conale's Inn
"The expiration on March 31, 1924, of the license which had been granted for the operation of Connell's Inn, the cabaret conducted by Connie Immerman in his basement of the Lafayette-Building 131st street and Seventh avenue, has given an opportunity for concerted action on part of citizens who object to its continuance of this resort.
The Commissioner of Licenses, August W. Glatzmayer, has given a temporary permit to the place, extending the old license for a period of thirty days. In the meantime, a promise has been given that before further permanent action is taken an opportunity will be given for the hearing of objections from those who realize that Connie's Inn is a district detriment to the community. Under this promise, Commissioner Glatzmeyer will give notice of a public hearing in the matter of granting a license to this cabaret at which time church, organizations through their ministers, and other groups, will be able to express in concrete terms the basis for their objections. It is said that a strong delegation of Harlemites will attend the hearing and try to show evidence that Connie's Inn ought not to be allowed to operate in Harlem.
Still Violating the Law.
Notwithstanding the frequent and fruitful raids which have been made by Special Service Squad men of the Police Department during the past two weeks, there remain many hooch-selling joints in Harlem, most of which are operating boldly and aboveboard in the dispensing of socalled alcoholic liquors. Most of the old places, except those affected by the injunction orders secured from Federal Courts, are still doing business, and even in the face of the cruseade which has been inaugurated there are some new places being opened up. A postal list of those places which

LIST OF PADLOCKED PLACES
In the meantime, United States Attorney William Hayward has succeeded in securing from the Federal Court injunction orders to the total of 29, through which the places affected have been closed and padlocked for periods varying from four months to a year. The list of injunctions to date is as follows:

Is Chief Quitting?
Chief. Pomarante, whose places were saved two weeks ago through advance information which enabled him to get all of the hooch cleaned out before the officers could reach Harlem, seems to have been sincere in his alleged determination to quit bootlegging activities giving as a reason the high cost of operating. With two of his places already closed to hooch selling "Chief" gave orders to the men in his other places—at 359 and 565 Lenox avenue to clean out all hooch and discontinue selling. At least, that is the information would be customer, were given during the latter part of the past week by attaches of the two places. One of the employees indicated, however that as "Chief" had made his money in bootlegging and still had a large stock of wet goods on hand, it would not be surprising to learn that he had found some other way of catering to the hooch thrusts of Harlem.

Mrs. Kate Rochon Dead.
St. Martinsville, La.—Funeral services were held here on Saturday, April 5. Over the remains of Mrs Kate Rochon, widow of the late Victor Rochon, who was prominent in this state politically in the days of Reconstruction as a member of the State Legislature, and as an active figure in the turnover and strife of that period, and who died in 1897.
Mrs. Rochon died suddenly in the home of her daughter, the wife of Dr R H Brooks, at Rome, Ga. where she had been living for the past seven years, on Wednesday, April 2. in her 66th year. Prior to leaving here, for twenty five years Mrs. Rochon had conducted a private school, which had the distinction of being the first school opened in this parish where all children, without regard to color or condition, were received as punts.
Three daughters survive their mother, Mrs Brooks of Rome Ga., and Mrs Etna Rochon Boutte and Miss Athhea Rochon of New York City. The body was escorted from the Georgia city by two daughters, Mrs Brooks and Miss Rochon, and the son in law, Dr Matthew V. Boutte of New York
Only Insurance Company In North Carolina Owned By Policy Holders Is Colored
Twenty-fifth Anniversary of North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Company Is Marked by Extraordinary Report From Examiners of the National Convention of Insurance Commissioners.
By SADIE MOSSELL ALEXANDER
Assistant Actuary
Durham, N. C.—The North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Company of Durham, North Carolina, which passed its twenty-fifth anniversary on April 1, 1924, has just been examined by the Insurance Departments of three States, North Carolina, South Carolina and Virginia, in order that an official report can be made to the Committee on Examinations of the National Convention
The work of the examination included a test check of the income and disbursements of the company from the original vouchers to the journal cash book, which contains the entire financial transactions of the company. The assets and liabilities were carefully checked. The claim records were investigated as was the manner of settlement with policy-holders. The report of this investigation contains many striking facts to which the attention of the public should be called.
To begin with, the report of the examiners states that "the company is the only mutual life organisation in North Carolina of any size, which is owned and managed exclusively for its policy-holders. It is owned by the faithful policy-holders of the company, and the examiners state, managed exclusively for their benefit. These are indeed facts worth knowing. Think of the ONLY mutual life organization of any size in the state of North Carolina being owned by Negroes and managed exclusively for their well being
Only Mutual Company In State.
Yes, the examiners say that this is the only "mutual company" in North Carolina of any size. What is the size of the North Carolina Mutual? Let us find what they have to report concerning this question. After a careful examination of the books of the company the examiners state that the North Carolina Mutual had on December 31, 1923, over forty million dollars worth of insurance in force, to be exact, $41,148,747. For the protection of the policy-holders, on whose lives this insurance is placed, it maintains a reserve fund of over one million and a half dollars ($1,835,119,54). Its premium income during 1923 was nearly two million dollars ($1710,091,11). It paid to policy-holders during 1923 over a half million dollars in death and sick claims, ($63,380,97). Its total admitted assets are close to two million dollars, $1 945,521,95) lacking two million dollars by only $64,478,97). These are figures to stupendous that they almost never awe us. Forty one millions of insurance in force" one million seven hundred thousand and dollars of premium income." One million nine hundred thousand dollars or assets. And the examiners found every cent of it in place. This is not what the officers of the company report but what the Examiners found to be true. In addition the Examiners state that they found the "books and records very accurately kept." This is indeed an annual recommendation for the conduct of a million dollar business in these days of Teapot Home Supply. It must take such an institution as the
South Carolina Mutual to prove what can be done and what Negroes can do and are doing. Yes, in Durham they are handling nearly two million dollars a year and putting every penny, tuckel and dime in its place. This is not what we say but what the examiners of the insurance commissioners of three states working for the commissioners of all the states found and reported to these commissioners.
How Assets are Invoked.
How did the examiners find the North Carolina Mutual was investing its assets amounting to nearly two million dollars?
Here is what the examiners have to say on that subject "These items," referring to the bonds and stocks, were verified by actual inspection of the bonds and stocks in the possession of the company and by certificates from the States of North Carolina, South Carolina and Virginia Departments, and found to connect of Government, State and Municipal Bonds and Bank and Utilities stocks. There are no bonds in default and interest is collected promptly." In reference to the mortgage loans on real estate amounting to $665,804.90, the examiners state, "This item was verified by actual inspection of the loan notes and found to be as reported. All papers in connection with these loans were inspected and it was found that this item represents first mortgage loans on real estate."
This is what the examiners had to say. Not what the officials of the North Carolina Mutual reported. Their assets of nearly two million dollars were found intact and invested in first mortgage loans on real estate, government, state county and municipal bonds, bank and utilities stocks. Every cent was in its place! The books and record of the company were very accurately kept. And the company itself, the ONLY mutual life organization in North Carolina of any size. These are facts that should be heralded from coast to coast, from land to land. Truly, they are invincible arguments for the possibilities and success of Negro financiers. The North Carolina Mutual did not attain this position like Topsy. It did not just amassly grow. It has taken exactly twenty five years of unselfish labor to make this institution. April first, 1924, marked its first milestone.
Men Behind The Guns.
We are pleased to note in the report of the examiners that they did not overlook the man who has been behind the helm for every year and day of these twenty five years and his faithful colleague who shouldered the burden with him for twenty-one years.

of the North Carolina Mullah, and J. M. Avery, vice-president and secretary. Of these two men, the examiners say We refer to C. C. Spaulding, president in their written report, "These men, especially the president, who was with the company from the beginning, are the active officials, who should be given credit for the efficient management."
What more crowning success could come to an institution and its officers than on its twenty-fifth anniversary day to be presented with such a report, as the official examination of the National Convention of Insurance Commissioners. This is a summary of their estimate of the company: "A company efficiently managed whose books and records are very accurately kept, which is the only mutual life organization in North Carolina of any sense that is owned and managed for its policy-holder." Negro men and women of America, take courage when you see with your own eyes an institution owned and managed by Negroes for whom such praises are song, after twenty-five years of existence, by the official examiners of the National Convention of Insurance Commissioners.

Republican Officer Charged With Attempt to Bar Worker From Election Board in 21st A. D.
NEGRO INSPECTOR FOR PRIMARY ELECTION IS HEROINE IN EPISODE
Refused to Be Stampeded By Prejudiced White Republican — Won Respect From Fellow Workers.
A raw and rank attempt at discrimination is charged up against one of the Republican leaders of the 21st Assembly Districa in a story told by Mrs. Vivian Snowden of 26 West 186th street, in connection, with her assignment by the Board of Elections as an inspector in the 12 Election District of the 21st A. D. for the Primaries held on April 1.
In accordance with the assigning order given her by the Board of Elections, Mrs. Snowden repaired to the polling place at. 1641 Amsterdam avenue, at 141st street, for duty during the Primaries. She was met by a man who was alligned to be the Republican representative, one A. Rupp Jr. When in reply to his query as to her business there, Mrs. Snowden told him she held appointment as an election inspector, assigned to the 12th E. D. Mr Rupp declared there was some mistake and that her services were not needed.
Mrs. Snowden declares that Rupp tried every means in his power to get her to leave the polling place, finally coming out in plain words and telling her that the presence of a colored officer was not desired, that there was no place on the Board for her; that other members would not work with her and that even the voters would object to exercising their franchise if a colored person was on the Board
Refused To Be Stampeded
Mrs Snowiden, however, refused to be stamped and firmly but quietly insisted that having been duly appointed and qualified there was nothing for her to do save remain there and perform her duties. It is alleged that Rupp, sold her there was no Negro voter in that district and this added to the objectionable character of her assignment. In this attitude, it is charged that only one member of the Board supported Rupp, a woman Democratic worker named Mrs. Stokes. Finding it impossible to change the colored woman's determination either by threats, cajolery or argument, Bump threw up his hands and left the polling place Mrs Stokes, despite the advice of the Democratic leader, one Mr. Healy, also quit and left the place
The vacancy created by the leaving of the Stokes woman was filled by the:

After describing the efforts put by Rupp in his vain attempt to of her, and realizing that if she polling place in accordance with suggestions it would be possible to take advantage of the opportunity to put, someone, else in her place. Snowden declares that Rupp the to bluff her into going to the Man Club to see a Mr. Heins I working. Rupp finally called Heins the phone. Mrs. Snowden also to Heins on phone, and when he that her authority was complete to said over the phone that there was ing for her to do except work
Continuing, Mrs. Snowden said "I told Mr. Rupp jr., what Mr. said, he told me that I did not have work, that the paper I held meaning, but I could suit myself, as we not want you here, and we do not have colored and white together here." Rupp declared to me that we were no colored voters in the district they did not want a colored insurer taking a job that a white person fill; and that the others did not work with me, or the voters we not care to vote, seeing a colored specter in the polls
"However, I remained and then then refused to serve on the Board, leaving the polls and remaining away the entire day, returning just before closing time. The resignation of Mrs. Stokes a Democrat, was also due to my presence, I think, as she left as soon as I found I was to remain. I had no trouble with anyone, and it was the Democrat, captain, Healy, who replied to some one inquiry as to Rupp's whereabouts, the Rupp was foolish and quit. Mr. Healy was courteous and considerate me, as were all the others who woke during the day." Mrs. Snowden's certificate of service was signed by Nathan Samuel as a man of the election board.

He should be reappointed to the place he has
filled so well as the best means of keeping

fulness. The Board of Education will make
no mistake in retaining Dr. Ettinger.
VAGARIES OF PREJUDICE.
The many curious phases assumed 6;
prejudice, whether it is based on caste, o
social, or racia? lines, was aptly illustrate:
by two. happenings in the metropolitan dis
triet, reported in the daily papers of las’
week.
One of these incidents was caused by the
action of a few students of Columbia Uni:
versity, headed by 2 Virgina fireeater, tc
provoke a ferment over the fact that a Negrc
student had been assigned a room in one o!
the halls attached to the University. A pro:
test was finaly lodged in the hands of Dean
Hawkes, as qhairman of the committee on
residence halls.” The building in question is
occupied only by graduate students, includ-
ing Japanese, Chinese and Hindus, against
whom no protest has ever been rarsed.
The Negro student who comes from Ten-
hessee, moved in early in March. It was
reported that he was “reasonably clean in
his persona! habits and did nothing that
would annoy neighbors.”
Dean Hawkes, in a statement made upon
the first hint of objection, was sufficiently
explicit to settle the question of the position
of the University authorities. He said:
“The residence halls of the University are for
the benefit of all the students If a man finds his
surroundings uncongenial there is no need for him
to stay. There are waiting lists of bundseds, and
any, vacaocies cas be Billed at once:
“It has not been the usage to exclude men from
the residenual halls on the ground of their parent-
age At the trme application is made for a foom,
there is no inquity inte the race of the applicant
“There have always Leen Negroes at Columbia,
as well as students of other nationalities, and no
rerimination is countenanced against any”
The other incident grew out of a news-
paper popularity contest, conduéted by a
Flushing newspaper, under the auspices of
a local social organization. A ballot was
printed in each issue of the paper and the
gitl receiving the most votes was to be queen
of a costume dance, to be held April 27 in
the State armory at Flushing. To the em-
barrassment of the society people who ex-
pected to keep the contest among their own
set, a young colored girl. a freshman at
Hunter College and a distant connection of
the late Bishop Derrick, sobn assumed the
lead in the number of votes cast. Then a
white girl employed in a clothing concern
drew ahead, which was equally distasteful
to the society leaders. A Jewish girl ran
third The highest name of any of those
who contd be classed as ‘a society girl”
ranked eighth.
This combination of social and racial em-
barrassments was ton much for the exclusive
social organization. which had made the
blunder of opening its popularity contest to
the public So two of its officers wrote to
the local paper printing the ballots stating
hat “due to the many misunderstandings
the contest would not be held.” The lead-
ng contestants were reported as taking this
jecrsion philosophically enough. the only

LILYWHITEISM AGAIN RAMPANT
An important issue for the Republican
party to decide 1s again brought to the fare
in the letter written by Dr George E Can
non and addressed to the chairman of the
National Republican Committee The isene
plainly stated is Whether the party in the
South is to he reduced to the status of ‘a
white man’s party in which it would differ
in no respect from the Democratic party
The mneidents which gave rise to the let
ter in question relate ta the chooaing af dele

done in South Carclina Arkansas and other
parte of the South vet to be heard from In

the colored representatives were excladed
{tani the batlding where the convention wag
held: in Little Rock, Following this action
the colored Republicans efféeted a temporary
organization of thelr own and proceeded to
elect ddlegates and alternates to the State
and Congressional conventions. This calling
of the convention at a place where it was
known that the colored electors would be
excluded is directly opposed to the resolu-
o adopted by the National convention in,
1920.
. If the action taken in both these cases was
taken at the instigation and with the appro
al of the national committeemen, Mr. Tol-
bert of South Carolina and Mr. Remmel of
Arkansas, there would appear to be a lack of
good faith on the part of these two Republi-
can leaders. The whole question of South-
ern representation in National conventions
appears to be beset with difficulties, because
of the lack of any proper system of represen-
tation of the voters, who form the basis upon
which said representation is based. But de-
spite this drawback there should be no such
diserimination on racial lines in the selection,
of delegates,
Asa matter of pure politics the “lilywhite”
policy doss not make any votes for the Re-
publican party im the South. On the con-
trary, it loses votes for the party not only
in the South, but in the North also, where
the voters of the race resent such discrim-
ination in party politics. It is well that this
matter should be brought ,to the attention
of the party managers thus early in the cam-
paign, so that the question shall be finally
settled 28 to whether equal rights for all
classes of Republicans shall obtain in the
South. In the North it has been decided in
many States, including New York, that if a’
member of the party can get the necessary
votes at the primaries, he or she can serve
as & representative of the party to any con-
vention, regardless of such minor considera-
tions as race or color.
In the meantime the Negro Republicans
n the South should put their strongest and|'
most outstanding representatives forward as}
delegates to the National convention No
man should be selected for delegate who 18!

self free from the suspicion of nfercenary|
motives and entangling alliances.

presentation 1s uncertain and the method]!
f their selection ts left to the arbitrary ac-}
1on of national committeemen There 1s]
ieed for reform in this particular and es-],
ecially for a fair deal that should embrace
1 classes. No vestige of “lilywhiteism”|!
hould be permitted in the party policy, if the]
arty expects to survive. !

One has only to walk through the
various Harlem thoroughfares to become:
convinced of the large number of new
faces seen—some from Virginia, South
Carolina, North Carolina, Georgia, Floz-|
ida, ‘Alabama. Louisiana, Mississipps,
and even Texas Some came because
they were here seeking improved condi-
tions, better schoo! facilities for their}
children, protection under the law and
an improvement of their economic cone,
ditions A large number of these have
purchased homes and have worked
right into the life of the community and
are proving themselves to be most useful
and helpful citizens. 3
Many are coming from the wlands of
the West Indies who recognize that the
United States offer opportunities not to
be had im their former homes—others
from the South are of the shiftless
class. who if they remain have got to be
shown what citizenship means, what
work means, and what respectability 1s

Mother Zion Church
Although the weather was quite threatening, the morning services at Mother Zion Church were well attended. Rev. A. N Watkins preached to the junior congregation in the lecture room. As it was the first Sunday in the month, baptism and holy communion were administered. Five children were baptized and eight persons communed. The Junior Church, during the lent season, is conducting the prayer and praise service each Friday evening, between six and eight o'clock.
Dr Brown preached in the main auditorium. He, spoke from Revelation 2...7. "He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; to him that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the Paradise of God." His subject was "Seven Promises to the Overcomer"
The speaker said in part. The first seven verses of this chapter are addressed to the Angel of the Church at Ephesus. It was a great city in the days of St. John. Ephesus and Corinth were twin cities, situated on either side of the Aegean Sea, something like I everpool and New York, between whale, there was regular traffic. The city was large and wealthy, the capital of the province, the center of religious worship. Here was the Temple of Diana, one of the seven wonders of the world. It was not only notable in secular history, but in sacred. St Paul, Timothy and Apollus were associated with this place. It was the chief of the seven churches of Asia Minor. The church had been faithful, but in one thing it had failed. "Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left the first love." We observe here that it is impossible for all of the machinery of a church to be in full working order and at the same time her spiritual fires may be burning low. No part of the work of the church should detract our love from Christ. No difficulty or temptation should deter us, for He has warned us of them all. No emergents can come upon us, but that His grace is all sufficient. Christ is jealous of our love. Nothing outside should claim it. His love for us is a constant flame, while ours is hardly a spark. Our interest lags and work ceases when love grows cold. The engine will not run long when the fire has gone out.
At the close of the sermon five persons were received into the church Sunday-school convened at 2 oclock. There was a goodly number present At the close of the school Dr P. F. Anderson delivered a very interesting and instructive talk on Health Dr Anderson is being sent to the various churches in the city to the Society for the Presence of Tuberculosis Following the address Dr Brown made a presentation to Miss Alberta Thomas from her class which completed their course and received certificates on Friday evening April 4 Address to the graduates was made by Rev W.

First Emmanuel Church
At the 11 o'clock services on Sunday morning Pastor Bolden preached a very inspiring sermon to the many gatethed. This text was "And was transgured before them and his face unto anne as the sun, and his raiment was white as the night. St Matthew be to me the transguration of Jesus signifying or embodying the kingdom of immortal beings
A master Bolden said: There was not an act, word or movement of the prophets that did not have in it symbolism Isaiah, Abraman and Jon good for certain outstanding symbols. The person Jesus had been symbolized in various ways and periods in human development. His learnings and His Life may be viewed in the light of symbol and significations of immortality. The Transguration may never have impressed you as being something that had a greater significance than just the illuminating change that took place in the person of our Lord Jesus Christ the Emmanuel. A close study of Jesus movements on His way to the Mount or Transguration reveals a definite purpose was in His hand. He selected, to accompany Him, three witnesses, namely Peter, James and John. What took place up in the mountain, between Jesus and the two heavenly visitors, shows that He was conscious of a heavenly confluence relative to Him Person and Place in the plan of salvation. We believe that we are warranted in saying the Holy, representing the spirit of prophecy and Mary, representing the spirit of legalism, in obedience to a command come upon the Mount, conterning with our Lord about the redemption plan which invoked His Physical Deity. We believe that the Transguration
or Jesus and the brilliance that His Body took on came about because He had the power and knew how to will and assume an immortal body. And this luminous body was made suitable for the pace, the time and meeting of the immortal heavenly beings Moses and Eliah. We may be able to see what might have been the spirit of the conference from a study of the sayings of our Lord when he was His Divine Purpose. He said I came to break the law but I failed to Jesus said I did always the way my father. This was made when He wah serving the people. I was a expression with the idea that in the cross was. Not my will but those he dined Jesus was the sum total of the moral essence and the highest thought of legalism and the truth of the prophecies and Messiah prophecies the world. He was and is. The name apa in human history. He did not take a crowd not all the disciples with him but He took three sacred wives which showed He knew the law that where three wives were a truth shall be established. He seems from the record that he said to Him when He got up from the house he came in morta. He saw out from the shiny and radiant as our sun knocked and dazzled them. And here there appeared unto them Jesus and Jesus talking with Him. He said we are saved. He and all unto us are here with us make here three take nails on three and we make Jesus and

Union Baptist Church.
During the past week our services were well attended, Mrs. E. Beecham, the singing evangelist, rendered selections during each evening.
The inclement weather did not affect our morning service, which was largely attended. The choir, under the leadership of Prof. W A. Calhoun, rendered suitable selections for the occasion, after which our pastor preached an excellent sermon on the three beacon lights, Moses, Elias and Jesus. The sermon was well prepared and delivered and was heartily received by those present.
The B. L. P. U. W H Lloyd, president, and somewhat of a small audience owing to the continual downpour of rain but the program was interesting.
At the evening service the rain had not ceased and the congregation was cut to between four and five hundred, this being the smallest audience we have had in many a Sunday evening. Our pastor used as a topic, "A man as a hiding place from the wind (offering for the day), $373.05
Rush Memorial Church.
Dr. G. M Oliver, pastor, preached a practical sermon at the eleven o'clock service, from text found in Matthew 13.52. The preacher dealt principally with the last clause of that verse, which speaks of things old and new. A relative comparison was made between these two adjectives, old and new, and points were given on which of the old things are good to hold on to, and what there is to gain by reaching out for the proper new things. It is good to hope for new and righteous things, said the speaker with sufficient faith that these things will help us on to bigger and better achievements, and in the end will have been the instruments by which we have overcome and attained the crown of everlasting life. At 5 p.m. communion services were held. Rev S N Dunbar of Westbury Church preached the sermon. Although the weather was very inclement, a good number attended
In the evening Dr Oliver preached on "And they sung a new song."

Bethany Baptist Church
Dr. Kimball L. Warren delivered another great sermon last Sunday. It was really its anniversary sermon, because nine years ago Dr. Warren delivered his introductory sermon as pastor of the Bethany Baptist Church. It has been a custom of the church to give Dr. and Mrs. Warren an elaborate and public anniversary, but owing to the fact that the church is worshiping in the basement of the old church preparatory to entering the new church, the conditions would not allow the proper demonstration. But a committee headed by sister Alice Jones last Thursday gave Dr. and Mrs. Warren a private anniversary. Dr. Warren received a purse of more than $200 Rev Timothy White of Brooklyn and Rev J B Robinson of New York spoke highly of Dr Warren's achievements and his christian principles.
Three new members united with the church Miss Ema Ramsey, Mrs. Evelyn M. and George Mudon. Holy Communion was admin stered. High School convened at 1:30. Preparations are under way for the Easter exercises. The Young People's Organization met at 10 with Stanley M. Douglas Special subject are discussed and all current events which prove beneficial to the young people. All are welcome. Meeting are held in the Parish House. At the evening service the pastor preached on "The Seeker after Christ." The young man in Mark 10 moral in every way is yet in need of Fieral Life, but not willing to make the sacrifice required, good seeing this, looked in three different attitudes, upon him. First in love then in sorrow and then to His followers. He gave the look of

In The Realm of Music
By Lucien H. White
The extremely inclement weather on Sunday afternoon, April 6, probably accounted for a falling off in the number of folks who went to the Martin-Smith Music School, 139 West 136th street, to hear W. Rudolph Dunbar play a program of interesting music on that unusual concert instrument, the clarinet. But at that the music room was well filled, and the audience assembled was both discriminating and abbreviative.
According to comment made by the composite, outstanding features of the afternoon included the arrangement for clarinet and piano of Newina "The Rosary," which arrangement had been made by Mr. Dunbar, the playing by the artist of Weber's Concertino (adagio, anfante, allegro), and the splendidly sympathetic and capable work of Miss Hazel Thomas, who was at the piano. Mr. Dunbar is a student at the Damrosch institute of Musical Art and is one of the very few artists who are making the clarinet a classic recital instrument. Too, too often is this instrument, possessing considerable capacity in the hands of a sincere artist, diverted entirely to the rank of an ensemble instrument in jazz and dance aggregations. Of course, it has always held an enviable position as a symphony orchestra instrument, and the players of the instrument, with more devotion to their art, could easily do as Mr Dunbar is doing and give their work a dignity it is fully entitled to.
Compositions by Mozart, Elgar, Schreiner, Chopin and Kroesspach completed the program.

JULIUS BLEDSOE TO SING AT AEOLIAN ON EASTER SUNDAY EV'G
Johus Bledsoe, baritone, makes his debut in classical recital on the evening of Easter Sunday, April 20, at Aeolian Hall, under the management of S. Hurok, Inc. This young man, in past informal appearances, has given indication of an unusual talent, to which has been added serious and sincere study, with a fidelity to purpose and faithfulness to ideals which indicate worthwhile possibilities for the future.
In this Acobian Hall recital he is presenting a program calculated to task every resource of the most finished singer, and certainly Mr. Bledsoe is not indicating any lack of self-confidence by taking upon himself so huge a task. Opening with numbers by Caceini and Handel, following on through the French and German classics, he adds a group of English art songs and conclude with Negro Spirituals which have not, I believe, been heard here before. Certainly the arrangements are by newcomers in the field, for there are two by Emil J. Polak, a Bohemian pianist, who is to be Mr. Bledsoe's accompanist, one by Gaul, a Novello publication, but with nothing indicating as to whether or not the arranger is an Englishman or an African, and another by Mitchell, also heretofore unheard of so far as I am concerned.
The program offers the most interesting possibilities, and will be listened to with great interest.
Frank Harrison, Baritone, In First New York Recital
Frank G Harrison, baritone, made his New York debut at Grace Congregational Church, West 139th street, near 8th avenue, on Sunday, April 6, at 4:30 o'clock, under the management of Robert Hernandez of 230 West 138th street. Mr. Harrison came heralded as a singer of fine quality, and those who were present Sunday afternoon seemed willing to confirm this reputation. His program included German, Italian, French and English songs, with of course, Negro Spirituals. His closing number, not heard of as often as its beauty and power would warrant, was Hiawatha's aria from "Hiawatha's Departure," the third of Coleridge-Taylor's great "Hiawatha" trilogy, "True is all Iago tells us." The pianoforte accompaniments were played by Miss Beatrice C. Lewis, who came to New York from Washington, and who has proved to be one of the most capable of the younger school of musicians
Bordentown Musicians End Annual Tour Through N. J.
Bordentown, N. J. Over forty have hundred persons attended the annual concerts in North Jersey which the Bordentown Manual Framing School brought to a close in Newark on briday evening. A record throng of fifteen hundred broke all concert attendance figures for the colored people of that city, and served a fitting finish to the most successful concert tour in the history of the school. These concerts are planned by Principal W R Valentine each year to bring the work of the school before the people of the state, as well as to keep alive in this section of the country the tradition of purely Negro music. This year marks the fifth annual program under the direction of Fred J Work, teacher of vocal music at the school. That the concerts have be come intensely popular among the colored people of the state is shown by the fact that nearly four hundred of the faithful in Orange braved Tuesday night's blizzard to get out to the High School and hear the students program Montclair and Jersey City both ran their attendance figures well over the thous and mark, while Plainfield totalled an audience of six hundred
This year's program makes a radical departure from those offered in previous years in that several operatic pieces compete with spiritual for public favor. Without doubt the number that pleased North Jersey audiences most was the "Quartette" from Rigolotto, rendered by seven students Chinetta Hunt, a young miss from Trenton, stored densely in this and other numbers when she exhibited a lyric soprano of remarkable range and sweetness. The Male Quartette lost none of its popularity through the loss of last year's bass singer, George Dosher but was called back again and again for encore songs by the girls' and boys' glee clubs and numbers by the boys' band completed the program

We believe singers and players are now realizing that things worth while cost, and that the cost must be borne in large measure by those who are beneficiaries. Therefore, we wish to keep opinion moving in the right direction by telling the truth about what is happening, and we are disposed to be immediately effective rather than consistent.
The following facts we offer as further clarifying a needlessly befuddled existence:
On Friday evening, March 21, 1924, a five-piece combination of the Buckeye Syncopators, a unit from the Singers and Players Exchange, played an engagement under our contract
Our contract specified
Ready to hit at 8.30 p.m. and remain until 12.30, midnight price. $75
The leader, by request of the party, further contracted to play until 1.30 a.m. made the charge of and received $15 for the hour or fraction thereof
The Exchange paid each individual $12, and the leader paid $3 each for the overtime, making a total of $15 each
For your further consideration, here are a few inside facts.
The place of operation of this particular contract was at Hunt's Point Palace, and the union price per man at that place is $8 and $16 (or double for the leader) Time we hours or less from time ordered, $2 per hour or fraction thereof, for overtime.
It certainly does not take much worry to find out who are beneficiaries under such contracts—thirty dollars above union scale with one hour less work made possible by the original contractor. We understand through rumor there is a team who charges and receives $50 per hour for their musical entertainment for the first three hours and $75 per hour for overtime. Of course, this is an unverified report. However, it is possible
Because on last December 31, one of our contracts was made for $50 per man (December 31 of each year is our one big night). This is a true demonstration that if the occasion can cause big prices, the services can do the same. And it is perfectly plausible that this extraordinary team in question can get any price their services demand.
Taking for granted that the team runs true to rumor—it is but more than reason for heavy investment of talent and money to perpetuate our line of musical entertainment
There is no reason why we should be musical derelicts who are penniless and dependent, and seem to be proud

Runnin Wild Benefit For Tuskegee Inst. on Apr. 30

The big benefit performance scheduled for Wednesday afternoon, April 30, by the Runnin' Wild Company, through the courtesy of Miller and Lyles, heading the company at the Colonial Theatre, Broadway and Gind street, which has been donated for this occasion by Selwyn & White, the lessees for benefit of Tuskegee Institute, is attracting much attention
Charles Winter Wood of the Tuskegee staff is in New York and in active charge of the affair.

Among the members of this committee are Miss Helen Goodwin, Colonel William Hayward, Mr and Mrs Otto Kahn, Colonel Arthur Little, Dr and Mrs Anson Phelps, Stokes and, Mr and Mrs Paul M. Warburg
Cooperating to the tallest extent to make this benefit a huge success are the members of the New York Tuskegee Association. The entire Runnin' Wild Co will present the new Spring Edition of the show.

Alabama State Normal Nine Divides Two Game Series With Tuskegee
Montgomery, Ala.—Playing before big crowds on both days during the meeting of the Alabama Teachers' Association, the Alabama State Normal Tigers, split the first series of the season with Coach Abbott's Tuskegee machine. The first game was an onslaught which Alabama State won by the decisive score of 12-4, while the second game was won by Tuskegee, 7-6, after the count had stood 6-3 at the beginning of the ninth inning in favor of State Normal.
With Captain Boss, the veteran Tuskegee first, baseman, bearing the brunt of the visitor's defense and contributing two hits, the Tuskegee machine was well-balanced but could not stand the onslaught of the State Normal batters who garnered twelve opportune hits off the offerings of Smith.
William Anderson was the hero again and held the Tuskegeeans to six scattered hits while lacing out two good bingles himself.
Too much confidence as the result of a three run lead, plus a bunching of hits by the visitors, spelled the defeat of the State Normal Tigers Thursday afternoon. Tuskegee Institute taking the long end of a 7-6 score. The ninth inning rally on the part of the invaders was one of the most thrilling and spectacular ever witnessed on Paterson Field. With the score standing 6-3 for State Normal. Tuskegee used her last chance and made four runs, then protected this unexpectedly acquired one-run lead by an unassisted double play in the last half of the ninth inning.
Penny for Tuskegee and Kindred for State Normal engaged in a pitcher's battle for six innings with Kindred having the edge. Ashley relieved Penny in the sixth and Lewis came to the rescue of Kindred in the ninth when the Tuskegans had tied the score.
Lincoln Resumes Football Relations With Va. Union
Lincoln University, Pa -- Graduate Manager Dr W G Alexander has announced that football relations have been resumed between Virginia Union University and Lincoln.
At a meeting held at Lynchburg, Va., H D Martin, representing Union, and Dr Alexander, representing Lincoln, made a tentative agreement, which was later ratified by the Athletic Councils of the two schools. This agreement settles the difference which arose as the result of the game played in Richmond several seasons ago. October 25 is the date selected for the game to be played this year either in Richmond or Norfolk, with Union acting as host.
Lincoln will not play West Virginia College Institute this year, as the date formerly given to Lincoln by Institute has been given to Howard. According to Lincoln authorities the relations between the two schools are harmonious and the change came as a surprise to the Pennsylvanians. It is said that the change was made by Institute without giving Lincoln notice Lincoln was given the choice of two other dates, but as these dates are already filled on Lincoln schedule, it was impossible for her to accept. Among the new teams on the Lincoln schedule this year are Virginia Semin and unibling and Shaw University at Lin

The much talked about and much expected conference which was to take place in Chicago between the head officials of the Pullman Company and the elected representatives of the porters and maids in its employ, on rules and regulations affecting their working conditions, has been held. Judging from reports brought back, it was one successful conference held with the management of the company, so far as the interests of the employees was conceived ...
Among the things which have been granted the ports are the些们: Wage increase to 12 per cent, instead of 8 per cent, as announced some time ago; mileage Bills of long runs to be reduced; 100 per cent, added to "deadheading" pay; one and one-half hour when called up to "double" 25 per cent, added to the prevailing rate of pay for those doing the rules affecting the functioning. Committee "C of the plan employee representation. These are substantial gains and adjustments over the present order of compensation and industrial relations, and we have no doubt but that the company as well as its employees will profit by the advancements and changes. In summing up the net results of the conference, it is not too much to say that what these representatives accomplished in the way of better pay and better working conditions far surpassed the most optimistic tations of those who be benefited. Too much credit cannot be given to them who sacrificed their time and devoted themselves to a cause equally beneficial to all of their fellow workers. By what they have accomplished they have proved that they knew what they wanted how best to get it.
The conference further demonstrated that the porters of the various districts are awakening to the fact that in selecting men to represent them they must choose those who, by reason of economic intelligence and other corresponding attributes, are best fitted to participate in negotiations which have to do with their betterment. The old way of selecting men merely because they are popular won't do in this modern age. It would be well for us to let this conference be a lesson on how to choose representatives who are honest and capable of hindling the matter in hand, whether it is for our working conditions or beneficial associations, or our recreational activities.
activities.
And now something should be said about the management's behaviour at the conference. In giving the porters and maids more money and other things conducive to the betterment of their economic welfare, the head officials of the Puffman Company proved that they are not "hard boiled" as some would have us believe. They showed that they are endeavoring to meet their employees halfway, and, considering the fact that no pressure other than that of moral justification was brought to bear upon them, as a matter of justice we are forced to say that they have been most generen in some of their concessions. In view of the foregoing, it is our prophecy that they are going to expect us to be on the job" at all times, which after all is nothing more than right.

New Rockella, N. Y.-J. Howard Harper of 112 Chancey avenue was awarded a verdict of $200 damage from Culdaa, a Rye Beach hotel keeper, by a jury in White Plains. Supreme Court, Dairy J., Judge Morcheau predding, as a consequence of the refusal of Culdaa's匀uiers to serve Mr. Harper and party with lunchmen and cool drinks.
Testimony showed that Mr. Harper and wife, Mme. M. Patillo Harper, with their guests, Professor and Mrs. Smith of Detroit, Mich., and Mr. and Mrs. Motley and daughter of New Rochelle, motored to Rye Beach in the Smith's automobile. After parking, the ladies were shown to seats at a table on the veranda, while the men went inside to purchase lunch and soft drinks. But the waiter dimly and discontinuously refused to fill their orders, even to be taken out of the veranda, telling Mr. Harper that the proprietor had issued orders that no Negroes were to be served. Mr. Harper responded the waiter that his wife was not asking to be served but simply to be supplied with refreshments ordered. The waiter declared that it made no difference. Said he, "You can't get service of any kind here, matters not who you are, colored or Negroes."
Attorney Symile of New Rochelle was retained and suit entered. In his charge to the jury, Judge Morchurte, told that body that they must not judge a man's rights by the color of his skin. "Under the Civil Rights Law," said he, "all men have a right to be served in any hotel, theatre or public place so long as he was sane, respectable and law-abiding. The some red blood flowed through his veins, the same heart could feel the sting of an insult, aggrandishment if Mr. Harrington good enough to serve here in this Court from time to time as a juror he is worthy a fair and indiscriminating侵入."
The jury was out only fifteen minutes before finding a verdict for $200 in favor of Mr. Harper.

The association under the presidency of Prof. W. R. Wood (Ensley) held all of its meetings at the Alabama State Normal School, Dr. G. W. Trenholm, president, and was royally entertained by the State Normal School and the Montgomery city teachers.
The feature of the meeting was the adoption of a new constitution which makes possible a much more expansive program on the part of the organization President W. R. Wood in his annual address on Wednesday night, sounded the keynote for the fostering of a bigger school organ under the provisions of the proposed constitution. "The Educator" had been operating for one year already.

Blegen of the Birmingham Schools. Superintendent A F Harmon of the Montgomery County Schools. President G W Trenholm of the State Normal School (Montgomery).

Woman Alumni a Leading Candidate for Trustee Board. Howard University
Washington D.C. When the committee in charge of tabulating the alumni nominations for a representative on the Howard University Board of Trustees had completed our work, we found that a large number of lessees P. Sara Brown of Washington in W. Sara W. Brown of Washington in W. Justin Larter of Hartnsgurp Pa. Rev George Framer Miller of Brooklyn Dr. Peter M. Murray of New York Rev Scott Wood of Downtown Pa. and George H. Woodson of De M. Emory B. Smith alumni are field secretary was one of the few who declined to receive the award.
Considerable comment has been given by the alleged attitude of some of those interested in the matter who process to see danger in the possible naming of Dr. Sara Brown the argument being advanced that a woman is not retractable to develop trustship calibre. Friends of Dr Brown ridicule the idea declaring that women of today have put themselves on a plane equal to that occupied by most men. And especially do they contend that a woman should be on the board of trustees of Howard, which is a educational institute, and a woman must be able to engage which concern the interests of girl students.
Newark, N. J. - A third attempt to secure relief from a decree for separate maintenance secured by his wife, Mrs Christie Scotland, of 123 Bank street, made by Judge J. H. R. Scotland of 456 South 21st street, Irvington, N. J., failed on Monday, April 7, when Vice Chancellor Baxles denied an appeal by Judge Scotland to have the decree given his wife in July, 1920, when the husband failed to content at the time. Scotland is a jujuritor of the peace and has been document clerk in the County Gler's office for the past twenty years. Two previous efforts to divorce for the husband were dismissed; in this third petition Attorney George A. Dougfaus, for the husband, was not permitted to introduce a defense against the abandonment charge which was not defended in 1920, but testimony was given showing that Mrs Scotland had selected all overtures for a reconciliation.
Vice Chancellor Baccala declared that as Judge Scotland was accompanied by a white friend on a visit to his wife, and not by one of his own race, Mrs. Scotland was justified in remaining in an objective mood when, race friends later approached her on the occasion. In denying the court to set aside the existing decree, the court stated that a motion to review the case would be encouraged.
Judge and Mrs. Scotland were married in 1888, and came to Newark the following year. Five children, all grown, were born to the couple.
Spanish Clgar Maker
Found Dead in S
J. Valdez, 59 years old, a Cuban craftmaker, was found dead in his tote at 2083 West 135th street about noon on Wednesday, April 9. Friends and neighbors said that Mr. Valdez had been complaining of feeling badly for several days but they did not think it was anything serious. A customer came and found him lying on the floor behind the counter. He rushed to the 38th Precinct Station a few doors away and notified the police. The police had the body removed to the morgue and it was later turned over to a Spanish burial society.
Mr. Valdes had been living in New York for several years, but did not have any relatives here. He formerly conducted a cigar store at 646 Lenox avenue.

Philadelphia, Pa.—A movement has been started in Philadelphia to foster colored citizens of the city into an organization, for the purpose of promoting political recognition, and demanding consideration for their political representation. An preliminary meeting has already been held which was attended largely by representative citizens from Philadelphia of the city. Several speakers expressed satisfaction with the proposed agreement and pledged themselves to support their support, stipting that such organization was needed in a city like Philadelphia, where the so-called citizens had failed to receive just recognition from the party which they had formerly supported.
A few letters of regret were read from leading citizens who were unable to be present, but who were in hearty agreement with the proposed movement. A temporary chairman and secretary were telefed.
A constitution is being drafted by a special committee of which E. Washington Rhodes of the Philadelphia Tribune is chairman. Charles Fred White was elected temporary chairman, Miss Mahel Fusheburn, secretary.
