For Investors, But Justice Baum Dismissed Case, Upholding Present Tenants at 133 West 138th Street. What is alleged to have been an attempt to increase the rent in the five-story apartment house at 133 West 138th street was frustrated when Justice Baum dismissed the action of the 133 West 138th Street Cooperative Realty Company, Inc., to dispossess the occupants of that house. The action was brought in the Seventh District Court on May 7 and the plaintiffs claimed that the house had been sold on the cooperative plan. Nail & Parker, agents for the premises, organized the corporation and is said to have guaranteed possession of an apartment to those who bought stock. The price of each apartment (which was six rooms) is $3,000, and eight people sums ranging from $50 to $90 as first rent. Those who took stock in the corporation were Henry McClendon, president; Mrs. Pamille Collins, Mrs. Will Tyers, Alberta Hunter, Dr. Anderson, the druggist; Dr Ray B. Waller, Walter Wilson and William C. Anderson jr. The tenants claimed in their answer that they could not find any place to move, and also alleged that only three out of forty were given opportunity to buy apartments. Although all of them were years—some but all—alleged there twelve years. The defendants also alleged the purpose of the action was to get an increased rent. For a long time the house was owned by a German named Friere, who acted as his own agent Mr. Frieze died in 1922 and Mrs. Josephine Brokaw became the new owner. She turned the property over to Nail & Parker, who it is alleged, attempted to raise the rent immediately from $40 to $50. The rent laws prevented this raise, but the tenants consented to a five dollar raise, providing the new landlord would clean the apartments and put in electricity. This offer was refused and the rent continued at $40. It was further alleged in court that no transfer of the property had been made and that many who put up money for an apartment had said they were not going to occupy them, but were going to subtle them at an increased rental.

When he was released on Tuesday charges were immediately) preferred against the officers. Witnesses of the affair will be interviewed by the captain of the detective division of the 15th Precinct at 653 East 67th street, on Thursday morning, May 15. --- As a matter of fact, the casual stroller along Harlem thoroughfares can heat, without conscious effort at eavesdropping, comment from almost every group of two or more which he might pass concerning some phase of the "Numbers" playing game. All sorts of schemes are resorted to for the getting of what it is hoped might be a "lucky combination", and any kind of figure group is asked to be selected upon and as a kind of prize. The favorite plant is to get everything her containing three digits and then to so transpose and rearrange these digits as to make a series of six numbers, and whatever sum is being played is divided upon these numbers. A "Number" is gotten from almost any source, some of the sources being of the most unexpected and unusual sort. Two men standing on Lenox avenue were overheard talking, and one of them told of having been worried by the constant recurrence of some kind of a vision to the extent that he finally reported to a dream book for a solution. Whatever the dream book told him, it took the form of a reference to figures that resolved itself into a Number which he had been playing but without result. 137th St. Headquartera Information which has all the earmarks of authenticity has come to The Age office concerning the activities of a certain clique of men and women who make their headquarters in the handsome home of a well to do resident on 137th street, between Seventh and Eighth avenues. Every morning these young people assemble in this home and gather around or to be acting as agent for the banker. At any rate according to The Age's information each morning there is gathered together a large bundle of ships containing "Numbers which have been collected by the various numbers." According to records which have been furnished this paper, this woman is either owner or has a large interest in some valuable Harlem properties, consisting of private houses on the block in which she is on 137th street and on 18th street. The alleged facts in this case show that although this woman already financially independent, or nearly so, and formerly enjoying a credit with commercial houses and tradesmen to the extent of four figures is deserving much of her time to the "Numbers" gambling that of recent months she has hardly been able to meet even her current bills. One statement is to the effect that where former paid such bills in one jump up to $10,000 will not be paid for several months and will payments when made were in drubbles, $17, $12, $10, and even as low as $8 being paid at various times. Children Endangered There are two children in the home one a fine, upstanding boy just passing into manhood, and a beautiful girl of about 16, and these children it is reported, all subjected daily to the influence of this various environment with its risk of sitting and destroying the fibre of their clothing in rails and intellectually prominent business man in recent avenue tells a story of growing among entrant, on one occasion from a woman who has supported a proper take customer. He was requested to come without delay later than a quarter to ten of a certain time to a number in the 2250's on avenue, where he was to ring a airtent top floor bell Impressed by the urgency the man went to the designated number and rang the bell. Ascending the status he was met by a woman, who recognized him, although he did not know he, and she led him up to her apartment. Arrived there she piloted him in Arrived there the piloted him a narrow passageway, his bulk making the parents rather difficult to a person in the front. Here she left for a new sentence, and in her absence there came into the room a young woman who was partly disrobed. Visions of a black suit scheme began to simmer and take shape in his mind, and these were further developed when a surreplious trying of the door showed it to be locked and bolted. However, the woman soon came back and immediately proceeded to inform him of the nature of the business, which lay behind her summons. She had been informed by some one she said, that this business, man could give her a "good money", and she wanted him to give her money. The nature of the request was a distinct shock to the man, and for a request he was speechless with surprise. When finally, he regained his breath, he was with hardly repressed indignation that he repudiated connection with the Numbers, propotion in any way, there are form, and he also read the woman's lecture on the folly of wasting her money in such a hopeless pursuit of a chance to get a large return for a small investment. They Won. But Lost. There is another pitfall for the unvarying grubbles who play the "Numbers" in the unreliability of the men with whom they play their money. The runners who collect, as told in a previous lure, are paid twenty per cent. of the amounts collected as wagers, and in the remote instance of a player having acted a number that "pays off," the runners also collects an additional ten per cent from the player. A story is told of an instance in which a number, which happened to have been played by some of the Red Caps employed at one of the large railroad terminals came out. The capitals played by the men meant the payment, at the tremendous odds offered, at some $12,000 or more, from one barber. But then men not only have not gotten the $2,000, they have lost the original bill which was their stake, as well. For the man to whom they had entrusted their wagers simply did not come back to pay off. Another banker, it is said, who was hit the same day by the same man with the same number to the extent of some $600, came up and paid off, and this alleviated their distress to some extent. But they have not ceased exorcizing the banker who went away with their $12,000. And of course there is no recourse, even if they could put their hands on him. They are outside of the law and the illegal nature of their transactions affords them no legal protection. One man who hangs out around Seventh avenue works only to get sufficient money to play the "Numbers" and buy loose. His failure to select a winning number he uses as an excuse for further drinking, and if he should happen to win a few dollars on the "Numbers" that furnishes a reason for celebrating his success by way of further increased loose absorption. NASSAU CO. KU KLUX DEFEAT COLORED MAN FOR SCHOOL BOARD NASSAU CO. KU KLUX DEFEAT COLORED MAN FOR SCHOOL BOARD Freeport, N. Y.-In the recent election for members of the Freeport School Board, there were nine candidates for three vacancies, and the Ku Klux Klan succeeded in electing its candidates on the second ballot. The Knights of Columbus had nominated a ticket and an independent ticket included a colored candidate, John E. Robinson, editor of the Citizen, formerly connected with the New York Amsterdam News. He was nominated for the 3-year term by Mrs John A. Robinson of 29 Lillian avenue. By a ruse, the Klan gained control of the meeting. The election was held in the Grove Street High School building, and it was inadequate by half to hold the qualified voters. The Klan supporters got in early and preempted the seats, so that when the opposition put in an appearance more than fifty per cent of them were unable to gain admission The spirit of the Klan was evidenced when Mr Robinson's name was put in nomination, the motion being greeted by an outburst of hissing coming from the Kluxers. But applause from fair-minded persons present put the .lan element to shame The situation now is a probability of a fusion between the coloured and anti-Klan factoils for next year, and this will crystallize and concentrate heat strength Mr Robinson's name was only taken into consideration some lodge or five days prior to election, and sweetings of the Odd Fellows and Household of Ruth lodges, in Hempstead on the same night, took away many voters who would probably supported the Negro candidate. It was the first time in the history of Nassau County that a coloured candidate had been nominated for the School Board VIRGIN ISLANDERS SEND DELEGATION TO UNITED STATES St Thomas, Virgin Islands—At a conference held here in April a delegation consisting of Arthur Bryan, Halvor Berg, Ralph Rough and C. C. Granady, was named to go to Washington. District of Columbia U.S., and appear before Congress in behalf of the McClean Bill, intended to grant the Virgin Islands a permanent form of civil government. This action was taken to counteract the effect of a resolution passed by the Joint Colonial Councils in opposition to the McClean Bill. The Joint Councils is referred to represent only a small minority of the population, since only 85 of 200 inhabitants of the Virgin Islands have the right to vote. Meetings in favor of the McClean Bill have been held in St. Thomas, Frederick and Christiana. The bill provides civil rights similar to those enjoyed by Port Rica and grants American citizenship to native islanders here and in the United States. The civil form of government recommended by ex Secretary of the Navy Daniels is embodied in the measure, giving the President similar powers to those exercised over the Philippines. Mrs. George E.

Over 3,000 delegates, of whom 126 were colored, representing Associations from every section of the country, and visiting foreign representatives meet at the Hotel Commodore. Questions of vital issue were passed such as an alternate basis of membership which does not restrict its voting membership to Protestant-Evangelical churches. The final vote on this must be taken at the 1926 convention. If will be even then entirely optional with local Associations as to whether they will use it or retain their present membership basis. In every phase of the convention business the colored woman took her part in a natural way. They were members of important committees and participated freely in discussion on all subjects. The crowning event of the convention for the race was the election of Mrs. George E. Haynes as a resident member of the National Board. Besides the convention, there were student, industrial and business women's assemblies in which there were colored representatives. The Employed Officers' Association, which met immediately after the convention passed a recommendation which is significant for our colored leadership, with reference to difference in salaries paid workers of various races. Mrs. Charlotte Wallace Murray in her charming manner won the big convention with her singing of the Spirituals on Peace Night. Miss Crystal Bird and Miss Frances Williams led the whole conference in Spirituals There were two meetings of white and colored women to discuss Branch relationship and in these meetings there was value in the contacts and discussion of a subject of interest to each group and the fact to of the growing understandings is proving that the movement is indeed interracial. The hospitality of the city was open and free from prejudice. A spirit of understanding seemed to pervade the whole convention and we can with sincerity and truth agree with Miss Ada Baytop who in a few well chosen words ended by proclaiming to the Convention that perhaps the Young Women's Christian Association had come, into the kingdom for such a time as this. One of the most influential of the colored women taking part in the convention was Mrs. Ruth Logan Roberts, wife of Dr. Eugene P. Roberts, who is a member of the National City Committee and the National Council on Colored Work. She is also a member of the committee of management of the West 137th street branch for colored women, and chairman of the building committee which has in charge the erection of the new Association Residence on the site adjoining the present "Y" building. Mrs Elizabeth Ross Haynes, the first colored woman elected to the National Board, was discovered and recommended to the Y W C A work by Mrs Addie W Hunton Floyd, whose husband, the late W A Hunton, was one of the national secretaries; at the time Mrs Haynes was named as the first colored national secretary of the Y W C A. She is a graduate of Fisk and has been awarded a master's degree by Columbia University. She is at present a member of the National Council on Colored Work, and is connected with the 137th street branch. She is the wife of Dr George E Haynes of the Federal Council of Churches and is the mother of one son, George F.

WILLIAM HAYWARD "We law however is too good or, too impertinent not to be changed if it is changed by better processes of a free people, operating better their own Constitution. And po man or woman is too good not to obey that law as long as it is on the statute books." WILLIAM HAYWARD. RACE BENEFACTORS INCREASING. The announcement that Mr. and Mrs. A. D. Malone have given twenty-five thousand dollars to the building campaign of the Young Men's Christian Association in St. Louis created a high water mark in the scale of gift made by members of the Negro race. This gift is not only a demonstration of racial development along business lines, but it indicates a high sense of responsibility for the uplift of the race through its own efforts, along the lines of welfare work and social improvement. This sense of responsibility has been of long standing, but its early manifestations were largely through the securing of contributions from others for the carrying on of charitable and welfare work. With the increasing earning capacity of the Negro he was brought to realize the necessity for giving, from his own pocket for the cause of education and charity. The charitable work accomplished by the race out of its own resources has been much greater than was commonly realized, because of the fact that it formerly lacked organization and was done through the churches and their auxiliary societies. With the extension of the "Y" work among Negroes, the National Association for Advancement of Negroes, the Urban League movement, and the many local associations for needed welfare purposes, the demand for contributions became greater. The Age has frequently dwelt upon the duty of the race to increase its support of all these institutions, and the response has shown a growing sentiment in favor of such a practice. It is only when a donation of the amount of this St. Louis gift is announced, that the growth of this sentiment can be measured by the general public. Most of the welfare and charitable institutions conducted for the good of the race owe much to the number of benefactors of the white race, who have cooperated in the work. It is a source of encouragement and pride when their gifts of thousands of dollars are supplemented by similar sums from members of the race. It shows that the Negro is not content to be merely the recipient of the help of others, but that as his means will permit he is eager to do his part in helping upbuild the race of which he is part. The influence of this St. Louis gift should reach far over the country as a stimulant to race pride and race effort in the building up of institutions working for racial uplift. It should stimulate the race to a more general and more liberal support of race institutions. RACE BENEFACTORS INCREASING. The announcement that Mr. and Mrs. A. B.

We reproduce it, as follows.

We reproduce it, as follows. Washington May 8—Representative Hammer (D. N.) objected to being called a garulous old grandmother by Representative Blanton (D. Tex.) at today's meeting of the House District of Columbia Committee and it took a good deal of effort by other committee members to keep them apart. Mr. Hammer first let fly a folding chair at his antagonist. When that did not hit the mark he grappled the bulky District of Columbia Appropriation Bill. Thereafter the two members made several lunches at each other across the table but the meeting ended with handshakes. A disagreement over the calling of the meeting caused the outbreak. While the gentleman from North Carolina was made to appear as the aggressor in this spirited exchange of compliments it must not be overlooked that the original offence was the epithet applied by the gentleman from Texas who presides in a court has attacked and mortified the whole Congress by the wagging of his unruly tongue. In fact when Representative Blanton has let himself house he has evoked the condemnation of the whole house by the cowardness of his vultuperation. While the gentleman from North Carolina was made to appear as the aggressor in this spirited exchange of compliments it must not be overlooked that the original offence was the epithet applied by the gentleman from Texas who previews occasions has attacked and mortified the whole Congress by the wagging of his humiliating tongue. In fact when Representative Blanton has let himself house he has cooked the condemnation of the whole house by the corroseness of his stupuration. The point of this incident as the light which It throws upon the style of argument that might be expected to obtain in a cabinet composed of Southern statesmen of the Blanton type. When the Secretary of Agriculture offered a plea for free seed distribution, he might expect a difference of opinion on the part of the Attorney General to be emphasised by receiving a chair or some other substantial piece of furniture on his head. Lunges across the cabinet table would take the place of merely verbal retorts, and the meeting would close with a general handshaking, and a possible trip to the hospital for the sufferers in the debate. A good deal has been said and printed about the superiority of the Nordic races in the scale of American civilization. Such demonstrations as that described in the news dispatch quoted above are commonly relaigned to the more exotic Latin temperament. The truth would appear to be that loss of self-control and unrestrained indulgence in violent outbreaks are not confined to any one race or people. They are the index of ignorance and lack of common amenities that are necessary to preserve the peace in civilized communities. The lack of such restraints among the lawmakers of the nation is indicative of the grade of the representatives that are sent to Congress under the rotten system of suffrage that prevails in the South. Let the heathen rage, so that the need for missionary effort may be more fully shown and appreciated. A NEW CRIME DEFINED. Alabama has added a new crime to the unwritten code, that is enforced by the courts of Judge Lynch or the brutal methods of the mob, against the members of the darker race. A reputable Negro physician of Talladega, Dr. W. H. Brummitt, president of the Alabama Medical Association, was taken by force from his home one night, tied and blindfolded, and thrown into the bottom of a waiting auto car. Reaching a dense piece of woods he was taken out and severely flogged, after which he was left to find his way home as best he could. For hours he wandered until he came upon a cottage, where his wounds were dressed and he was assisted to get home. Alabama has added a new crime to the unwritten code, that is enforced by the courts of Judge Lynch or the brutal methods of the mob, against the members of the darker race. A reputable Nagro physician of Talladega, Dr. W. H. Brummitt, president of the Alabama Medical Association, was taken by force from his home one night, tied and blindfolded, and thrown into the bottom of a waiting auto car. Reaching a dense piece of woods he was taken out and severely flogged, after which he was left to find his way home as best he could. For hours he wandered until he came upon a cottage, where his wounds were dressed and he was assisted to get home. The alleged crime which occasioned this brutal assault, as stated by the unmasked assailants of this physician, was the fact that he practiced his profession on white patients, and especially white women. That these white people came to him of their own accord and because of their confidence in his ability to help them, was entirely beside the question. His sole offence was in accepting these white people as patients and exercising his professional skill in their behalf. In addition to having been beaten almost senseless, Dr. Brummitt was given ninety days by his assailants in which to close his business and leave the city. Although the outrage was reported to the police, according to the news report published in a Western paper, no steps were taken to apprehend the members of the mob. This would seem to confirm the belief that they consisted of a number of the "respectable white citizens" of Talladega, who pose as "the best friends of the Negro." It has long been known that in the "Black Code" prevailing in certain sections of the South it is a crime for black men exhibit too open signs of material prosperity, to talk back to whites, to wear white collars, or even to seek to collect wages due them for their labor. But that a reputable physician in such a considerable town as Talladega should be brutally beaten and driven into exile for following out the ethics of his profession is a sad commentary on the degree of civilization common to that section.

As a proof of the sincerity of this sentiment Attorneys D. D. McGill of Jacksonville was chosen as one of the delegates at large to the National Convention, being the first Negro so honored since the days of Joseph E. Lee who for many years was collector of Internal Revenue. Another notable feature was a speech made by Mrs Blanche Armwood a colored woman delegate to the convention. Another incident calculated to discourage the Lillywhite element was reported from the Virginia State convention held at Roanoke. Some Lillywhite delegates were on hand with credentials given them by the chairman and secretary of a primary convention held in the rooms of a hotel in Petersburg where Negro was admitted unless as a servant. The Negro contestants protested in account of such treatment and won their fight the "Lillywhites" being un seated and their places given to the Negroes. Our informant added limblessly, "Bacom Blimp was there to see that it was done. Blimp's association with Coolidge has converted and made him another man." Without placing too much confidence in Secretary Blimp's sudden conversion, it may be considered that he has seen the necessity for the party leaders keeping faith in record-ance with the resolution adopted four years ago. As reproduced in The Age last week, it forbade meetings of Republicans being called in "places where it was the custom and practice to deny access to colored people." As a simple matter of fair play and good politics this pernicious practice was banned. It made no votes for the party ticket, but on the contrary lost it votes. Both North and South. No one knows this better than the Secretary to the President. Rebuffs to the "Lilywhites". should be repeated until they are forced off the Republican map or until they change their apois. HOWARD UNIVERSITY ON TRIAL. HOWARD UNIVERSITY ON TRIAL. Candidates for election as a member of the Board of Trustees of Howard University have narrowed down to three persons—two men and one woman. Each has loyal supporters and each is fully justified in waging a vigorous fight to win. The character and ability of none can be questioned. But a big issue is involved in the selection. Howard University itself is on trial. Whether this institution of learning is to courageously take a broad and liberal stand on the question of giving fitting, recognition to sex is the transcending question. All of the members of Howard's Board of Trustees are men. The University is coeducational. It is not operated for males only. Merely electing another man to the board, no matter how distinguished, would not raise the university in the esteem of the public half as much as if a woman were chosen. As the women are greatly desirous that one of their number be made a trustee, also forward-thinking men, why should not their wishes be gratified? It is inconceivable to think that Negro members of the board who constantly write talk and orate against "moss-eaten tradition." against "worn-out custom." against "the pathetic backwardness of some who fall to get in step with the times." would oppose the election of Dr. Sara W Brown. They have been afforded a golden opportunity to go on record as showing to the world that they practice what they preach. Will they embrace it or will they prove themselves inconsistent as those who preach democracy and a square deal, but whose actions brand them as "hot-air" merchants, not doers? A BROADER "Y" POLICY The election of Mrs George E. Haynes as a member of the national board of the Young Women's Christian Association is indicative of the broader policy that has obtained among the members of this ultra conservative welfare organization. Another phase of this policy was the relaxing of the qualifications for membership by vote of the convention, which no longer requires the applicants to be affiliated with one of the evangelical churches. The fact that Mrs Haynes is a member of the New York branch of the organization and of the council on colored work, with many years experience in such work, amply qualifies her for the honor of being the first woman of the race to become a member of the national governing body. This national body comprises some twenty New York women as resident board members, besides a number of non-resident members from other sections of the country divided into the Eastern, Southern, Central, Southwestern, Pacific Coast and Rocky Mountain regions Women from Alabama and Texas are gathered in conference with those from Massachusetts and Connecticut in working for the uplift of womanhood all over the country. It is eminently fit and proper that the women of the race should be represented in all phases of this work. With this broadening policy growing in the field of "Y" work among women, the need for a similar growth in the direction of the work among men is naturally suggested. While some of the Negro organizations formed for work among men and boys have prospered under intelligent and tactful leadership on the part of the local management others have been hampered by the lack of such qualities. In the absence of racial representation on the central boards, which override the decisions of the local boards, there has been a failure to establish a sympathetic understanding of the needs and relations of these branches. Proper representation on the central board might have prevented such a serious situation as has curtailed the usefulness of the Harlem branch for men The action of the women is therefore to be commended as a progressive step tending to further the progress of the work among the race and to remove many of the causes for friction that attend such a process. Much of the credit for this broader policy adopted in the "Y" work among women is to be attributed to Miss Eva D. Bowles, whose helpful influence has made her an important factor in association matters. The Nashville Globe noted the broadcasting of juilies music for radio folks on a shortage of one hundred voles trained for that purpose. It sold: One hundred voices singing juilies and glationation melodies were broadcasted from the First Baptist Church (white) on Tuesday night. These songs of old glationation days represent the South and producing the only real American music of today that have attracted the attention of hundreds of thousands to be the first attraction for the radio fans over the United States this week. These one hundred students who had been trained especially for this occasion were led by Prof. John W. Work, who is well known as a singer and an interpreter of juilies music. Arrangements for this broadcasting was made by Dr. W. Y. Powell of the First Baptist Church, who has shown much interest in Jubilee music. It was estimated here this week that the people were listening-in as far East as New York and Boston, and as far West as Kansas City, South to Florida and Southwest to Texas. This broadcasting refreshed the memory of Nashville people of the publication of the National Jubilee Melody Song Book that the late Dr. R. H. Boyd placed upon the market years ago obtaining a large number of these songs. The arrangement and the publication of this book of Jubilee Melodies enabled more than 100,000 people last year to have it in the homes, churches and schools, and to be able to make a study of the songs that were sung in the early days just prior to and following the emancipation This illustrates the lasting qualities inherent in the jubilee and plantation melodies. The Seattle Enterprise, referring to a disguised emigration activity manifested under the socialized "Back to Africa" movement, said. We would like to ask the exponents of this project a few questions: (1) Since a large part of Africa is owned and controlled by European nations, how it is proposed to acquire government and habitat sites for six million Negroes? (2) What capital is to be used in the "floating" of the project? (3) What is meant by a "Back-to-Africa" designation? (4) How many Negroes are in the capital from Africa? (5) How can one go "back to a place from which he never came" We would add, however, that there is hardly any objection or difficulty connected with emigration to Africa by any who may be moved by such a desire. Let those "prospects" who want to go "back" go right along unless their own Government objects. And by the way of encouragement, we might say, along the line of thought of the late Bret Williams' famous "Maybe" When the Indians have gone "back" to their native country, then MAYBE we'll go "back" to Africa. Most of these emigration schemes are planned for the exploitation of the credulous people, who have a little capital to reward the promoters. Six million Negroes might be induced to sign a petition for government aid to such a scheme, as announced in some white newspapers, but their interest would hardly go further The editor of the Oklahoma City Black Dispatch recently took issue with the editor of the Chicago Whip on the subject of the "Good Will Tour" of the Eastern group of business men to the South It said. But a trip down South by the Negroes in the North, who think they understand business methods well, can certainly be sight to cure the blind the Good Will Tour" will open the eyes of many a Negro who lives North of the Mason and Dixon line Atlanta, Savannah Macon, Memphis, Little Rock Durham Richmond and many sections of the South will furnish plenty of food for thought. It will give the Northern Negro an insight into what is possible under difficulties and open his eyes to the facts that he is sleeping on his rights. The money in this trip will be well spent. The tourists would do well to extend their trip to Oklahoma, the virgin field of opportunity. We have not done much in a cooperative way, but we can show individual ventures that shine the Negroes of the North Muskegee Tulsa and Oklahoma City stand out favorably along this line. But most of all the trip will furnish an opportunity for the Negroes with dollars to invest to find a field for business exploitation. In this respect and looking at the question from such an angle would do no harm to Southern Negroes who can make the North. There are new and wonderful opportunities for nice dollars up there. New ideas to be assimilated. We of the South have no patience on common sense no more than our brothers in the North. We learn much from them and their wealth of experience. Despite Editor Duncan's sweeping assertion that Northern Negroes think they know it all, he has the right idea in suggesting that the two sections should become better acquainted in the matters of business progress and opportunities. The Houston Informer opposed a promoted bond issue for that city on the following grounds. Millions of dollars have been used for bonds in Houston during the last two decades and millions of dollars have been spent for civic improvements but precious little of these millions has been expended for improving the conditions of the sections of the city where the vast majority of the colored citizens live. Just stop and count the number of paved streets in colored residential sections in this city and then count the number of streets in these same districts that are even sheltered or enclosed. Now, this time the city fathers cannot even make the citizens even the Committee on Inter Racial Operation one solicitor promises to regard what consideration it has given each taxpayer and citizens out of this proposed bond issue for civil improvement, which the local electorate will The Age Readers' Forum either approve or defeat at Saturday's election. Indifference, lethargy and moral cowardice never did, get any people anything, any time, anywhere, and state. It is a apparent that the enforced citizens of Houston will get absolutely nothing out of this proposal, and that its opposition to all the issues excepting the one for the library. Especially does this paper oppose all the submitted, bond issues for "clive improvements" for this paper is tired, seen colored tajgars and clitizens burdened with additional taxes because of their use of the land. I get about as much out of them as the necessary material to make a tajgars for a mosquito. Colored ciliates—in Houston do not get anything for not out of their taxes but a tax receipt, and it appears to The Informer that we should call a half somewhere down the road, and think and set like other sensible and sane people. Later advices showed that the bond issue was defeated, but the city council will reimbark the question in June. The Informer calls for some definite assurance that the colored voters will benefit from the improvements, in default of which it proposes to "swat the issues again." Editor of THE NEW YORK AGE Editor of THE NEW YORK AGE The death of Henry Allen Rucker, May 11, 1924, at his late home, 152 Piedmont avenue, Atlanta. Georgia, removes from among us a man who for quite half a century was a real and vital force for good and progress in the history of the race. His mental and usual He seemed to have been born usual He seemed to have been born with the capacity to sit down and think things through without admixture of emotion or personal feeling It would be hard to find anywhere a man freer from the influence of the passions and excitements of the moment than he was. If he had chosen the field of intellectual adventor as the theatre of his activities there are indications that his faculties would have earned him a high place among those who followed the life of thinking, and influence the course of events as thinker He was educated at Atlanta University. He became active in Republican politics at an early age. In 1850, he was a delegate to the Republican, National Convention of that year at Chicago. He has been a delegate to a number of National Conventions since then. From 1880 to 1885, and from 1889 to 1894 he was a clerk in the office of the Collector of Internal Revenue for the district of Georgia. In 1897 he was appointed by President McKinley to the position of Collector of Internal Revenue for that district, holding the position during the administrations of McKinley and Roosevelt and for a few months during Taft's administration. During the more than twenty years of his career the office was first class" and be at the rules of efficiency, and even of partisanship, as they then existed, he should have had a reappointment from President Taft, but for the policy adopted by Mr Taft, the practical effect of which was that a Negro regardless of blameless life and approved efficiency, should not hold an office of presidential grade if his white neighbors objected to him on the grounds of race. Mr Rucker was honorable on all his political activities. His name and memory are free from all accusations of taint and crookedness. No single political act of his has brought shame, or dishonor, or odium upon his race. None of the reputation for bribery, corruption and grafting for southern delegates to national conventions, has been assigned to him. Here is a public life that we may safely commend to youth of the race of a limitation. He was a tireless worker for the advancement of is race. His interest in the education of his people was tireless and sincere. The improved educational situation in Atlanta is due in no small measure to his long, continued and indefatigable labors. Soon after the passage of the first interstate commerce law in 1887 he was among the first, if not the very first, to make representations to, the Commission on regard to the unfair and unjust conditions as to travel on railroads which colored people suffered. Repeatedly he has remonstrated with the Railroad Commission at the State of Georgia with regard to had treatment colored people travelling between points in the State received at the hands of the roads. In 1880 Mr. Rucker married Jess Anne Long a daughter of the late Hon Jefferson Long the only colored man who ever represented Georgia as a congressman on the United States House of Representatives. From this union came eight children all of whom survive their father as does the wife. In addition to his other amenable and good friend, Rucker is a good and prudent business man and accumulated during his life considerable property, within a few block of Atlanta's commercial center.

If he is not one of that bunch, my name he is more in action. What has he done for the colored Republicans in South Carolina? When he took hold we had 10,000 votes. Now we have less than 2,000. We had men in all departments, Internal Revenue Office as clerks. Now, we can't get a decent janitor's job. We had deputy officers, now we have none. In my dislike we have a Rev McFarland, one who does Tolbert's bidding, attached to the United States Court, looking after the Marshall's baggage and doing other menal tasks at a mere $1.50 or $2 per derm It is the chief duty of Tolbert and a few henchman who run to his aid to quelching the life of any man who shows signs of independence. This is the trouble with Dr Hardy. He opposed the plans of this Political Car at the State Convention, and now Tolbert is determined to crush Hardy in the assistance of a bunch of cheap Negroes.

In the morning Pastor Bolden's text was "But Mary kept all these things and pondered them in her heart. St Luke 2 19 the heart of Pastor Bolden read the following his historical data concerning Mother's Day. So far as it is known the thought of Mother's Day originated in the loyal heart of Miss Anne Jarvis of Philadelphia in connection with the desire to commemorate the anniversary of her own mother home-going. This was in 1906 it occurred to her that in this connection it would be lovely toribute to motherhood of all persons upon a certain day would wear a white flower, preferably a carnation and thus make the recognition universal. In two years the idea spread over North America and through other lands. The second Sunday in May was proposed as Mother's Day when universal motherhood should be humored everywhere and the wearing of the white carnation to be a token of love and loyalty to the living and of perpetual remembrance of those called higher. At the close of this reading Pastor Bolden proceeded to speak from the following theme. The Holy Mother's concentration upon her Holy Child. Though it appeared that the mod- environment of our children is the impulse to give attention should be called to the spirit of motherhood. There are sacred motherhoods in the child whose life, would be an imitation of motherhood, such as Hannah, the mother of Hannah, Kikirah, the mother of Jade the Magiary and Mary the mother of Jesus Christ, or Lorea the Kemmali. Each of these mothers in their day gave their native nation, and to this day the mark of distinction, the final one being the only beaten. Gen. of God. Among these nations there may have been thousand of women bringing forth worthy sons and daughters, but I call attention to these three because of their unique place in human history. These women, each of them, represented a clean, moral, praying, spiritual type of womanhood. They were both physically and mentally well polished. They were devoted to the truth of God and were constant in their attendance in the tentals for worship. They might be termed plus and holy women. As then, in it is now, the most useful men and women spring from the looms of godly parents, especially a righteous mother. The need today is for true mothers, so that we may have a more worthy civilization. The real mother is a national and world blessing to humanity. She is self-sacrificing, industrious and in the commitment of a good man. Their children are their precious jewels. As the children of good mothers, we rise up and call them blessed. Mary, the mother of our Lord the Emmanuel, ought to be the pattern and example for mothers of today. They will not be given a similar privilege or opportunity such as was hers, but it is within the power of young womanhood to so think, live and act that she shall mold prenatal influences in the nature of her being for the benefit of her offspring. Regardless to wealth or social standing, the environment and training into motherhood and the child should be healthy, clean and holy. The mind should be concentrated upon this thought, 'My soul doth magnify the Lord, and my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour. For He hath regarded the low estate of his handmaid, for, behold, from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed. For He that is mighty hath done to me great things, and Holy is His Name. And His mercy is on all them that fear Him from generation to generation. He hath showed strength with his arm; He hath scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts; He hath put down the mighty from their, seats, and exalted them of low degree. He hath filled the hungry with good things, and the rich He hath sent away empty. He hath holpen His savent Israel, in remembrance of His Mercy. As He spake to our fathers, to Abraham, and to his seed forever." The Sunday-school lesson was conducted by Superintendent Hogans and at the close of the lesson study Miss Maggie Johnson had a program with the children about "Mother" Miss Katherine Varona had charge of the literary program and a splendid program was rendeted. At 8 p.m. the evening service was well attended. Pastor Bolden continued his discourse of the morning sermon Splendid selections were rendered by the choir at both the morning and evening service.

Just where Mary the mother of Jesus stood, so we find today mothers waiting at the side of their children ever ready to share and bear the burdens of their offspring. Jesus in the midst of burden hearing of the world turned aside and showed that social consciousness and fulfilled the Fifth Commandment with His last expiration breath and commended His mother to the care of his bosom discipline.

Colored Women Republicans Plan Active Part in This Years' Presidential Race Washington, D. C.-The Republican women of the Atlantic seaboard and New England states are actively making plans for the campaign, according to Mrs. M. Mossell Griffin of Philadelphia, president of the North East Republican Women's Alliance, which takes in the races from Maine to the district of Columbia, who was a recent visitor at Republican National headquarters Mrs. Griffin is urging that the Federation of Women's Clubs have a political as well as a legislative department. "Many of our women have shown great interest in politics, while others are on playing but little interest and enthusiasm," she said. The latter are becoming a menace to the great political program being launched by the various political organizations. They run wild on the least suggestion made by intruder. They are also willing to be led by unqualified leadership." NEGRO INDEPENDENT BIBLE Upholsters G. appl. of the 20th Century The Negro Independent Bible entitled "The Holy Poly," speaks of Man.

PAGE FIVE in The of Realm Music By Lucien H. White 7th Annual Martin Recital Featured By Three Unusual And Interesting Incidents Extremely inclement weather might have kept some of the more timorous souls at home on Friday evening, May 9, but the New Star Casino was generously peopled for the seventeenth annual Martin Rental, an affair which has become one of New York's musical institutions. It was established by the late David Irwin Martin, founder of the Martin-Smith Music School, now located at 139 West 130th street, and whatever may be the artistic excellence of the program there is always an element of unusual interest. On this occasion there were at least three features that demanded attention and repaid the auditors for their braving the cold, wintry rain which made the May night have the atmosphere of March. The outstanding feature was the violin playing of little Miss Gertrude E. Martin. Some years ago her oldest brother, Eugene, Mars, was failed as a youthful violin prodigy and he well deserved the title. But little Gertrude, in her playing on this occasion, gave evidence of a talent and a virtuosity that captures, if it does not surpass, that formerly exhibited by Eugene. She played the Violin Concerto No. 22, the number which she had played in the District and Borough contests which had been held in connection with the annual Music Week Celebration of the New York Music Week Association Inc. She wore, pinned to the front of her damy white dress, the bronze and silver medals which represented her success in winning the honors in both the District and Borough competitions on Saturday the 10th, Miss Gertrude competed in the final Inter-borough contests, and after long deliberation by the judges, she was given "Honorable Menton," the gold medal going to a 16-year-old boy competitor. The judges paid her a special compliment and acknowledged that their decision was a difficult task. The second interesting discovery was the work of Eugene Mars Martin, oldest son of the school's founder and Mrs Gertrude A. Martin, as conductor of the Symphony Orchestra. Eugene has succeeded his father as director of the school, and young as he is is displaying commendable ability in that direction. His interpretations of the Overture from "Iphigemia in Adulis" by Gluck, and The Deluge—Prelude by Saint Saens gave evidence of well-defined ideas of interpretation, with the ability to impart his readings to the instrumentalists under his baton. His conducting is virtile, intelligent and interesting, though somewhat imprecature. This, of course, is not surprising when the youthfulness of the conductor is considered. With continued serious study, and with a corresponding devotion to intellectual development, Eugene ought occupy a distinctive place in the musical world. The third feature, and it is third only in the order of its mention, not in its importance, was the pianoforte playing of Tourier-DeBose, who gave the Rubinstein Concerto for piano and orchestra. Mr DeBose, comparatively a new comer to New York, has easily won for himself recognition as a well-equipped musician. He possesses an exceptional technique, thorough musical comprehension, and a colorful temperament. The Rubinstein number is full of pianistic protectrices, admirably taken care of by the pianist's ample technical equipment, and his cultured intellectuality gave a dignity to the performance that stayed it from the basality which it might so easily have attained. A chorus of young girls, with Isabelle Rogers and Addie Davis, both of New Rochelle, appeared in two numbers, the first, Handel's Largo, with full orchestral accompaniment, being sung as a memorial to the late founder. The second number was a group of Burleigh's arrangements of Negro Spirituals—"Nobody knows the trouble I've seen" "Go down, Moses," and "There's a meeting here tonight." The first part of the program was devoted to an exhibition of the brass and wood wind departments of the school by a group of male and female pupils under direction of Robert F. Douge. The soloists were Mrs. Blackman, tombonist, Fred Jarvis and Andrew Jenkins clarinetists. During the third part of the program, three students, two of the violin and one of the piano, gave exhibitions which illustrated the excellent instruction imparted in these departments of the school. Each of them gave commendable and interesting renditions. They were John Russell and Winston Collymore, violinists, and William Weston pianist, with Plsie Gordon, Bernice Porter and Viola Scrudder as accompanist. A guest artist Mme Gilda Cardin harpist graduate of the Royal Conservatory of Music at Milan, Italy played several harp solos besides assisting the orchestra in the Large number. Mme Cardin is an interested friend of the school, and her numbers are given in the hope that they might serve as an inspiration to students of the harp. The present director, Eugene Mars Martin spoke briefly of the desire and need of the school for a larger home and urged friends to support and as the trustees in the effort to save the necessary funds through the membership campaign now under way. Subscriptions blacks had been distributed with the programs and the school hopes for satisfactory response. The ushers were F. N. Parks, James N. Anderson, James Harris, I. H. Howard Bowen Herbert Harris Clarence Mark A T Striickland A B Hikington Thomas Crump Dr. Floyd W. Werry and George A Thompson. Following the musical program, which covered a full three hours, the floor was cleared of chairs and dancing was enjoyed music being furnished by John C. Smiths orchestra with Frank W. Stewart as floor manager --- MME. CHATMAN SINGS WELL AT RECITAL IN WALLACE HALL, NEWARK Music lovers from the environs of Newark and The Oranges were afforded an opportunity to hear Mme Lourita Chatman, coloratura soprano, at Wallace Hall, Newark, on Thursday evening. ```markdown ``` May R. and they took advantage of it in considerable numbers.

Ross Hankins, flutist assisted, playing obligatoris in several numbers, and a solo group besides. The latter comprised a Romance and Scherzo, Opus 34. By Widor, and Mr Hankins responded to an appreciative reception by generously giving an encore Mrs. Chaitman was in good voice and responsive mood, and sang delightfully. Whether, the high pitched piano caused it or not, there was at times lack of clear enunciation that detracted somewhat from the excellence of her work. But in the brazura passages of her coloratura numbers, the voice was scintillatingly brilliant, and there was sweetness and mellow color in the cantabile. The first group was made up of Russian numbers by Moussorgsky, Rubinstein and Korsakow, Massenet and Dell'Acqua compositions, the latter being the Chanson Provençale composed the second group, the third group was entirely of Negro Spirituals, three by Burgeil and one by Reddick, with the final group bringing Beneficent's Carnival of Venice and Weber's "Ocean" area from Oberon. The recital was under the business management of Mrs. Nana B Lewis of East Orange.

Franklin Dyer is organist and choirmaster, radioed a sparse program tor the studio Corporation of America, operating Stations WJZ and WJY, and as consequence Mt. Olivet has received several letters commen- ding in highest terms the work of his choir. One letter, written by Chas. R. Foose, one of the officers of the Radio Corporation, declared that the chore furnished one of the finest vocal concerts ever broadcasted and expressed a willingness to broadcast a similar program at any time that Mr. Dyer was willing. Another letter from Charles S. Skinner, a prominent attorney, with offices at 30 West 44th street, said that singing was so good he felt that Mr. Dyer and his singers should know that their work deserved great credit. He emphasized the fact that his opinion of the merit of the singing was formed before he had learned anything as to the identity of the singers, and was based upon the fact that their singing was most excellent. Soprano Debutante to Appear in 1st Recital Mrs. Gertrude Henry, soprano, a pupil of the Wilson Lamb Studio, Orange, will make her debut on Tuesday evening, May 20, at Wallace Hall, Newark. She is being presented by her teacher, and will be supported by Frederick Moss, tenor, an artist pupil of t. same studio. Mrs. Cora Wymn Alexander will be at the piano.

"Y" Glee Club, Augusta, In Second Annual Recital Augusta Ga.-The second annual spring musicale of the Blue Triangle Glee Club of the Y W C. A., was presented at McGregor Hall, Haines Institute. The large audience present seemed to feel that it was the best of the three programs rendered by the club. Miss Rebecca Best, a young 20-year old soprano sang Batten's "April Morr" in a delightful style, and Manie Michelerich Daniels sustained her well-deserved reputation in her numbers. "The South Winds are Blowing," by Densmore, and as first soprano in the trio, there's a lark in my heart" or Spress. The entire program was givelt splendid interpretation.

A DEACON JOHNSON'S MUSICAL COLUMN Singers and Players Everywhere And To Help Those Who Help Themselves A very practical RULE on VALUES in the SINGERS and PLAYERS EXCHANGE lays emphasis upon the DUTY of the COMBINATION LEADER to cultivate in MUSICAL UNITS standards of fair JUDGEMENT. SINGERS and PLAYERS should be TAUGHT the difference between HERESAY and PROOF. MUSICIANS should KNOW the MORAL value in reserving JUDGMENT until the necessary FACTS are KNOWN. SINGERS and PLAYERS should be TRAINED to look for the distorting effect of PARTISAN BIAS. ANALYSE the record of our TWO major MEMBERSHIP CORPORATIONS. Have you been interested? LEADERS, our direct concrete PLEA MUST be for MORAL CONDUCT HABIT which is not BASED upon ethical INTELLIGENCE cannot be RELIED upon for CONDUCT. EXPERIENCE has shown the writer that it has been CUSTOMARY for PROMOTER and MANAGER first, to buy contracts and then to LOOK for COMBINATIONS The SINGERS and PLAYERS EXCHANGE reverse the process by showing UNITS how to prepare before they SELL. WE ARE REDUCING to a MINIMUM the GAMBLING element which has always been a part of the MUSICIAN SERVICE SYSTEM JAMES REESE EUROPE pointed out the way back in 1910 THIS writer shall always HAMMER away at what he believed was the MASTERS vision of a SUCCESSFUL UNIT SERVICE SYSTEM SUCCESS is a line thing, and brilliant UNIT COMBINATIONS are ADMIRABLE to BUSINESS ORGANIZATIONacked by CHARACTER and HIGH STANDARD SERVICE is the LOWER that keeps ENTERPRISES going after the MAN that ORIGINALLY set them going is no longer with them. In the DR BOIS GARVEY contrive we wi find a line that should give MOST of the so called BIG MUSICAL ORGANIZATIONS much concern and a RIGHT beginning for FUTURE operations, and that line reads "CAN ORGANIZATION STAND INVESTIGATION?" RUMOR has it that a MUSICAL ORGANIZATION did $77,000.00 in 1923. Wha the SECRECY? SHOW o the COMMUNITY the GOOD that you are IDING for the MEMBERS of your CORPORATION. The FACT that you did $77,000.00 in 1923, SHOULD be in cursive to go after $100,000.00 in A D 1924. HOW- EVER gentlemen do not forget the STATEMENT of DISBURSEMENT, and of course a balance, if any, will naturally be the conclusion HISTORI will repeat itself and the HISTORY will repeat itself and the case this time is IMPERIAL HALL 164 West 129th Street Monday Eve'g, May 26 at 6:30 HARVEY BAKER The Noted Negro Operatic Tenor Will Appear In SONG RECITAL Tourgee DoBose at the Piano (Reception and Dance Follows) Tickets $1.00 Box Seats $1.50 Now on Sale at the DONALD MUSICAL BUREAU 2805 Seventh Avenue (All Seats Reserved) Management Donald Musical Burra NEW TROUSERS TO MATCH ANY COAT.

Now, this fact was published in this COLUMN last FEBUARY, and where we are now positioned in the fact that about that time JAMES REESE EUROPES (1917-1918) book showed about over $0,000.00 worth of BUSINESS. As we said before the MASTER pointed the way, and we are just beginning to see the light of day as he printed it to us, because, if RUMOR runs true, to form, and the ORGANIZATION is correctly quoted, we are TRAILING. However, we can be of GOOD COURAGE, our worse TROUBLE is in the HEAD. THE HEART IS RIGHT, and the HEAD CANNOT STAY WRONG—WITH APOLLOY TO MY TEACHERS, the writer hands the above to you.
