ABYSSINIAN PRINCE GETS ROYAL HONORS ON REACHING PARIS Paris. May 16 Ra. Taffari Prince Regent of Abyssinia, was received today with honors equal to those given any visiting European sovereign when he arrived from the south of France for a visit to Paris. President Millerand and Premier Poincaré welcomed him. The Parisian population, which knows no color line gave an enthusiastic greeting to the swarthy potentate, clad in white silk, with head uncovered and wearing the Grand Cordon of the Legion of Honor. The Prince Regent had a triumphal procession from the station to the Quai d'Orssey, then went to the regal apartments in the Foreign Office, occupying the suite recently vacated by King Ferdinand and Queen Marie of Romania. France's guest is a Christian prince, who has just returned from a visit to the Holy Land and has come to thank the French government for its support in obtaining Abyssinia's entry into the League of Nations. He is accompanied by a large entourage Geneva. May 10. It was announced here today that Ray Taffari, the Abby-siman Prince Regent who will attend the Assembly of the League of Nations here in September will receive the same honors as those extended the King and Queen of Roumania on the occasion of their recent visit to Geneva the secretary-tat of the League of Nations and the headquarters of the international labor organization. Col. Hayward Scott Smith and President of Columbia As Answers Butler's Charge That I By Citing Some of the Conv Prominent Men Who Violated Volstead Act. Col. William Hayward, U. through whose office the most done for the curbing of the boot hooch hounds, continues to strike Volstead Law on every possible congregation of the James Methodist Episcopal Church. He also will be key advantage of the opportunities to both Gov. Alfred L. Smith and President Nicholas M. Rouse of Columbia University for the alleged proposition to enforcement of the prohibition on C. Hayward declared the Dr. Butler's speech at Columbia (the) in January 1923 that the prohibition law, was written in secret, and the repeal in New York State, the Muller Gage en for event law under Gov. Smiths administration, were the two hard-boys ever struck at respect for law. C. Hayward said in part, "One of the papers in announcing that I would speak here tonight said I would answer Dr. Butler's en for speech at the Missouri Society. It was not necessary for me to come here to answer him. His main contention at the matter being that the law cannot be enforced my office has been answering his calls and with increasing success."

ATTY LYMAN WARD DRY AGENTS CLOSE AND PADLOCK NINE OF THE BIGGEST CABARETS IN THEATRE AREA New York Coast Guard Is Increasing Size of Water Fleet And Thus Preparing for More Concentrated Effort Towards Curbing Bringing In Of Contraband Liquor From Beyond 12-Mile Limit. Notwithstanding the vehement and strenuous denials made by Robert W. Willis, owner of the property at 2360 Seventh avenue, corner of 138th street, that this property was being occupied by a bootlegger for the illegal sale of hooch, the Federal authorities have, this week, through the U. S. Marshal, issued a restraining order on the premises against the sale of intoxicants, and emptied the place of all its contents. For several weeks The Age published the fact that this property, owned by Willis, who is actively engaged in church work in the community, being president of the J C Price Lyceum at Mother A M E Zion Church, was the headquarters of one of the largest dealers in bench in Harlem. Although it was supposed to be operated as a lunch room, it was pointed out to Willis that one side of the place was fitted up as a regular barroom and that an ample supply of various sorts of bench was kept in an iron safe convenient of access. Hundreds of their and women were daily patrons of the place, and on more than one occasion, individuals who had drank more hooch than they could stand up under had been led out by attendants or some of the hangerson, and placed, none too steeply, or considerably, on the curb around the corner on 18th street. Notwithstanding this visible evidence of the illegal traffic in alcoholic liquors Willis maintained his attitude of ignorance as to the business carried on in his building but at the same time continued to receive and accept the large and lucrative rental accruing from the lease a rental which a legitimate business Scores Gov.

Place Is Now Glosed. The place is now closed against hooch and it depends entirely upon how tight a hold Willis has upon the convicted bootleger as to how much more of the inflated income he will be able to collect. Officers of Mother Zion Church wrote the editor of The Age that they had taken note of the charges with relation to Willis and the renting of his property to hooch sellers, but that no action would be taken by the church until definite proof was offered of the liability. The action how taken by the Federal officials may be considered definite enough to suit the Mother Zion officers, and interested citizens are waiting with healthy curiosity the further developments with regard to Willis being continued as president of the J. C. Price Lyceum, one of the largest and most influential of the several auxiliaries connected with Mother Zion Church. In the meantime although the probation enforcement officers and the Special Service Squad of the Police Department are continuing with unabated energy their efforts to stop the selling of booch in Harlem new places are being opened up. Fifth avenue thought to one time to be practically cleared up is again coming into the boochlegging timelamp. Lunch rooms at 2190 and 2201 Fifth avenue are but camouflages for the operations of boochlegging booch bound.

B. BD to become head of new Junior High School, 139th-140th streets, between Lenox and Seventh Avenues. DR. JACOB ROSS IS TO HEAD NEW JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL, HARLEM To Be P. S. 139, But Suggestions for Distinctive Name, Preferably in Honor of Some Negro, Asked For. According to an official announcement from the Board of Education, Dr Jacob M. Ross, now principal of P. S. 89, has been chosen as the principal of the new junior high school on 139th and 140th streets, between Lenox and Seventh avenues. While the school is now known as P. S. 139, Dr Rose is anxious to have the parents and other residents of this section send in suggestions for parents. He would like to have the school named after some prominent colored educator or a benefactor of the colored race in America. The new school is beautifully designed and is modern in every way. It has a capacity of 42 classes which will accommodate 2,000 boys. The other equipment includes ships for the vocational classes, a modern gymnasium and show baths, an auditorium with a moving picture height and a large play ground in the rear of the school building. As P. S. 189 in the heart of the covered section it should afford every individual to the young boys of the section a stay in the school and continue through the high school at least. The school should now be departments a professional department for those who expect to take up a trade and an academy department for those who are going to the college work. There will be twent six departmental classes and system ower classes. The teachers for the new school are mostly from P. S. and P. S. 89 twenty four are from P. S. 89 and twents three are from P. S. Miss Lena Sobel now assistant to Dr Ross at 89 will be as assistant principal of the new school and Miss Ace Brennan will be clerk to the principal. No date has been set for the opening on the building but schools are that will be in June at time for the summer school classes. For the principal taking the place a public house to keep the school a school as possible so that the land or worked work may meet with success. He also hoping that the land and the pop. will be put at their splendid building and that make at the least kind of farm. Phila.

Robert Miller of 1811 Wolden street is being bird under $9,000 hawk in Moorcocking and on a charge of attempting to poison his entire family by placing poison in the food. It also alleged that his wife detected him in the act of making incestuous meetings to ward his daughter. He was assigned before Magistrate Peter Magistrate Court 20th and What in streets police station and heed for further hearing. His wife was the one affected by the poison. A. M. E. Zion Conference Elects Five New Bishops Indiana's Ind. The A M H Zon General Conference holding its 27th session here in Lincoln Hall has elevated five aspirants to the hustle prize.

Marten "Numbers"Interest Threaten Kidnapping and Death to the Daughter of The Age Editor Sinister and Vicious Attempt at Throttling Exposures of Evils Attendant Upon the Disastrous and Home-Wrecking Gambling in "Clearing House Numbers" Prevalent Among All Classes. WILD AND RECKLESS MANNER CHARACTERIZES WAY IN WHICH DELUDED VICTIMS SEEK TO WIN IN LOTTERY OFFERING ODDS OF 600 TO 1 But Odds Against the Player Is Easily a Million to One, The Exact Ratio Being Impossible to Figure, Since The Daily Totals Always Runs Into Several Million Units. Human vultures in New York City who are fattening themselves financially on the carcasses of their ignorant and blinded victims through the offering of chimerical rewards for picking the winning "Clearing House Numbers" each day, the reward approximating an alleged return of six hundred cents for every one cent invested, have begun to ruffle their feathers and flap their wings in anger, if there is any substance in the anonymous telephone message received in The Age office at 3.47 p. m. on Monday, May 19. When the telephone bell rang, the receiver was lifted off the hook by one of the office girls in the usual prompt manner, but with no thought other than that of taking accurately whatever message the wires might be bringing. But it was not an ordinary message. Instead, a rough voice, sinister and threatening, came to her ears, bearing words of violent import. It said: "If anything else is published in The Age about the 'Numbers,' we will kidnap your daughter AND KILL HER. Old man Moore is a fool." Astounded at the insulting language, hardly realizing its vicious meaning, the young woman hung up the phone. But as soon as she reported what had been said, an effort was made through Central to trace the call. Other than that it was made from a "Worth" station, no information could be gotten. A statement of the threat was made to the police officials at the 38th Precinct station house, but they expressed an inability to be of any service in tracing WILLS ABOUT TO END HIS BOXING CAREER Prediction Is That Dempsey-Wills Fight Will Not Occur, and That Wills Will Quit Ring The last that no date has been set for the proposed Dempsey Wills bout and that the promoter has not done anything about this contest is to be signed Harry Wills has given to the opinion that Rickard is using the colored manpain as a club to force Europe to return to the country and fight a return bout with the champion. It is now freely stated in boxing careers that Rickard never intended to stage a Dempsey Wills bout but hoped that his signing Wills and Dempsey, Lurp would again catch the lure of big money and return to the country as a pugilist. So far this hope has not been fulfilled but neither Dempsey nor the promoter of the bout have begun his preparation for the Wills fight. Unless this contest is staged it is likely that Harry Wills will himself retire from active competition at the close of this year. He will continue in the employ of Paddy Mullins as trainer for other boxers. Wills has found it so difficult in the past few years to get fights with men anywhere near his equal that he can hardly keep in condition. For this reason his bout with Bartley Madison may be his last one. Dr. Reverdy C. Ransom Elected to Bishopric Louisville Ky.-Three new bishops have been elected by the A M E. General Conference. They are The Rev. A. L. Gaines of Baltimore The Rev. Reserdy C. Ransom of Omaha Hart N.J. The Rev. Lance A. Gregg of Walnut Hill University, Ohio Jean L. Bryant was reelected secretary of the Sunday school Union despite the opposition of Bishop L. H. Jones No Abatement of Effort. Of course there is no intention on part of The Age to let up in its effort to curb and abate the evil which beats members of the race here in New York City through the wild and reckless abandon with which they have taken up the "numbers gambling" Every day brings additional evidence of the harmful effects of the practice. In many instances, disaster has come to homes, with want and misery following in its wake as a result of the vain and useless effort made by husband or wife to catch a "number" that will pay off and so strong has the desire become that instead of the few pennies which represented original wager these poor deals are putting up every cent they an raise as much as several dollars in the belief that the goddess of luck is bound to simie on them some day and they want to be in position to seize a huge reward. The adds offered I sent to get $0.10 cents to get $00 or $10 being $0.00 -affords an alluring present that evidence is hard to resist. Many of the men and women have been playing daily for months in the imagining that each coming day would be the day of the big winning for them. They have not been able to realize that every day is a day of big winning for the sharper who is taking the money. And as told in The Age last week in cases where large sums are wagered by the unwary victim and it happens by chance that the number indicated is revealed in the Clearing House statement for that day the runner and "banker alike usually disappear into thin air. Of course where a number coming out has been selected by a small bettor say to the extent of a few out, the "runner" is extremely prompt in bringing the necessary pay off, because in such instances the victim has already lost more than is known or is sure to be so enthused by his seeming good luck as to immediately increase his wagers to an extent that carries back to the "banker" within a short while and that has been gained by the winner. Gambling an Inherent Vine I Many are the expressions that have come to The Age concerning this num- bers gambling ghost of them expressing a hope that the exposure will be effec- tive but many of them are prey to tone and seem to be weighted with the opinion that any such light is hop- eless that it is lost before it is settled. These possesses say that gambling is inherent with the majority of bank- land that any effort to read it is less. The same kind of talk was used years ago, however, it is pointed out. when a crusade was started against the dangerous and palatial gambling bells which were the rendezvous of the wealthiest and most famous men of the country. But the crusaders continued and today the gambling hells are gone. Notwithstanding that such alluring odds are offered by the "numbers" bankers, the odds against the players are infinitely greater. The bankers offer 600 to 1, it is true, but the odds against the victims approximate easily a million to one. In fact, the most expert statistician is unable to figure out just what the percentage is against the player. One particular arrangement of three digits must be selected out of figures that daily total several million. And these several million offer endless numerical changes, changes impossible of advance computation. It is the wild hope that three figures, in proper juxtaposition, may be selected that furnishes the lure to the poor devils who daily offer of their substance to the consciences feeders on human hopes and happiness. Couldn't Pay Rent A casual caller in The Age office told the editor of a young man who occupied a room in her home. He had previously been a good and prompt paying tenant, but recently had begun falling behind. Being dependent on the income from her rooms, and unable to carry delinquents, the landlady after the second week went into the man's room to notify him he must pay up or get out. He happened to be out at the time, but he had left certain ships laying on his table which should that he had listed "numbers" and played the amount of $10.50 that day. His ability to pay room rent was explained. He was playing all of his money on the "numbers". Business houses in Harlem have given information to The Age showing that size of customers, formerly of the best land type, have lately become derelict and neglectful of their obligations. Thus applies not only to the installment plan houses, but to the more conservative houses who only extend credit to wellvouchsed for customers who can establish substantial credit. Many of these customers, with incomes that permitted establishing accounts of considerable size monthly, with prompt liquidation each first of the succeeding month, have fallen into careless ways and are losing their hard won credit reputation in the business world. ... A number of names have been given The Age, purporting to be those of men who are actively engaged in backing the "numbers" balk or backers. One or two of the Harlem bootleggers are named as combining the "numbers" with their booch operations, thus working for enormous profits from two sources. The difficulty of getting evidence acceptable in a court of law affords considerable protection to these cultures. Even though in possession of slips with numbers and other evidence of engaging in the game, the judges have consistently refused to hold the men when arranged in court. The well-to-do woman who lives in her own home in West 137th street, and who owns and is interested in several other Harlem properties continues her daily activities in the matter of playing the "numbers" and permitting her home to be used as a kind of headquarters for the "bankers" and "runners." Most of the names furnished The Age are evidently of Cubans, but others are Hebraic and American. COL. HAYWARD SCORES GOV. SMITH AND PRESIDENT BUTLER OF COLUMBIA AS BEING "WETS" COL. HAYWARD SCORES GOV. SMITH AND PRESIDENT BUTLER OF COLUMBIA AS BEING "WETS" (Continued from First Page) comes practically to the proposition that many of us have stood firm on for several years that the law must ultimately be repealed or obeyed I have often stated and it cannot be denied that no law is too good or too important to be changed or repealed by orderly processes but on the other hand no man or woman is too good or to important to obey the law of the land as long as it is on the statute books "So Dr Butler and I are finally agreed that the law must be ultimately repealed or reasonably obeyed. But here we part company for he puts all the emphasis on repeal and none on obey. He would acknowledge that our mighty nation for the first time in its history must go down in defeat and has met an enemy too strong for it, the army of bootleggers supported by the morons the drunkards the willful and the fashionably lawless I believe that repeal of the 18th Amendment is so contrary to the experience and the settled convictions of the Americans can people as to make repeal out of the question so I put all the emphasis on obey. In other words Dr Butler wants to retreat and I want to advance. "It is often said that prohibition has accomplished no good. I prefer to take the statements of the Salvation Army and other welfare workers that it has been the greatest boon for the betterment of our poor, our unfortunate and our weak that we have ever known. I'll tell you one thing it has done. It has banished the saloon. And city, country state or national prohibition is the only agency that ever permanently closed a saloon in this country."

Chamber of Commerce, through its general secretary, F. Roger Miller, to the effect that one Louise M Brexton, in New York two years ago, going around to the various churches and other places, with a group of singers raising money for an alleged school which she claims to conduct at Macon, Ga., has no school in that city. She is now working out in Minnesota, according to a letter received by The Age. Mr Miller writes. "She has made several efforts to promote schools here and elsewhere, but none have ever been established and her activities have been devoted chiefly to collecting money. The colored people in this section of the South have on several occasions expressed through their various organizations their unfavorable opinion of Louise Braxton and her methods."

Additional raids since the closing of these establishments have resulted in proceedings for the closing of at least three more of these brilliant establishments in the theatrical district, and it is thought that this action is the prelude to similar activities against the law-violating cabaret operating in Harlem, of which Connie's Inn at 131st street and Seventh avenue is the most noforour example. Maj. John Holley Clark and Lyman Ward, Assistant United States Attorneys in Col Wm. Hayward's office, are in charge of this work and they have personally supervised many of the raids and the subsequent padlocking of these resorts R. Q. Merrick, divisional prohibition chief, with headquarters in New York City, states that through the increased efficiency of his forces, both on land and water, the influx of liquor from vessels stationed in Rum Row, out beyond the 12-mile limit, has been greatly curtailed. In the same connection he thinks the bootleg liquor prices will increase greatly within the next few weeks. Some 100,000 cases of whisky, now on vessels out beyond the 12-mile limit, were held on board because of heavy fogs which enveloped the coast and made it too dangerous for small boats which transport the stuff to shore to venture out. Rum Runners Curbed The New York Coast Guard, under Commander E. V. Jacobs, is to be augmented by twenty destroyers and two mine sweepers, under authorization of the Navy Department and a Congressional appropriation of $18,000,000 will provide for the building of 223 25-foot motor boats of the cabin type and 100 36-foot motor speed boats capable of dongy thirty-five miles an hour. When the government warehouse at 141 Seventh avenue was the scene Sunday of an attempt to rifle the $250,000 stock of whiskey stored there, a revenue agent, Frank Galanty, who was in charge of the warehouse, was later arrested charged with having conspired with the four men who were surprised by officers before their attempt could be made successful. Three of the men escaped but the fourth, Matthew Corcoran of 305 West 170th street, was arrested Galanty the revenue agent, is suspected of having admitted the men to the warehouse as a woman living across the street from the place told officers that she saw Galanty admit four men to the building Detectives Stapleton and Behan, who made the arrest, were summoned by an anonymous telephone call to the warehouse on Sunday while the four men were attempting to make their haul Hooch Heunde BUILT IN BUSINESS FIFTH AVENUE 2188 2190 2201 2212 LENOX AVENUE 384 404 414 419 434 448 454 456 461 476 477 484 488 504 511 519 527 536 537 543 557 571 573 577 582 605 653 654 SEVENTH AVENUE 2140 2200 2212 2217 2230 2245 2256 2275 2280 2281 2319 2320 2360 2365 2420 2431 2454 2461 2467 2474 2501 2522 2529 2558 EIGHTH AVENUE 2508 2438 2583 2593 2630 2641 2645 2654 2637 Downington Commencement Downington Pa.

Seeking to arouse public opinion concerning the lives lost yearly through mob violence and lynching, the National Board of the Young Women's Christian Association announced Sunday that they are urging their entire Association body to seek to create public opinion against them. The action was taken in resolution form, approved and passed by the National Board, the executive body of the Associations in the United States. On the Committee on Colored Work of the National organization which first passed the resolution, colored women base equal representation. Following their acceptance, the resolution was brought before the National Board and approved as a policy for all Associations. The text of the resolution as given out yesterday was as follows "While a growing interpretation of brotherhood has reduced the toll of life through lynching during the last year some fifty per cent there is still imperative need for a national wide campaign in education which will result not only in the enactment of laws, but the enforcement of such laws. As law enforcement depends upon right attitudes of mind we the Council on Colored Work of the National Board of the Young Women's Christian Association would urge upon our entire Association body a new and earnest effort to create right public opinion toward the complete eradication of mob violence and lynching in this country.

Dr Morgan was called into the case of the 13-year-old daughter of one of his patients, Mrs Hature Cook, who had made serious charges against Fred Miles, the husband of another of Mrs Cook's daughters. The young girl was being held by the Society and Mrs Cook called on Dr Morgan to go to the Shelter and examine the child. But when the doctor entered the office of Superintendent Chatman, that official abruptly and in a most discourous manner refused to grant the doctor even an audience and would not permit him to see the child at all. In fact, the girl was in the office when Dr Morgan entered but Chatman immediately had her taken out by an attendant.

WILLIAM HAYWARD "No law however is too good or too important not to be changed if it is changed by orderly processes of a free people, operating under their own Constitution. And no man or woman is too good not to obey that law as long as it is on the statute books" -WILLIAM HAYJARD U. S. Attorney, Southern District of New York ENFORCING PROHIBITION Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler president of Columbia University voiced the opinion of many citizens when he pointed out the inconsistencies and failures of the enforcement of the prohibition amendment as it obtains in New York and other places. He is to be commended for possessing the courage of his convictions and showing up the hypocrisy of the measure. Nevertheless, if Dr. Butler would study the hooch situation as it has prevailed in Harlem for the past year or two, he would realize that any sort of enforcement would be a change for the better. Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler president of Columbia University voiced the opinion of many citizens when he pointed out the inconsistencies and failures of the enforcement of the prohibition amendment as obtains in New York and other places. He is to be commended for possessing the courage of his convictions and showing up the hypocrisy of the measure. Nevertheless, Dr. Butler would study the hooch situation as it has prevailed in Harlem for the past year or two, he would realize that any sort of enforcement would be a change for the better. The recent cooperation of the city police and the Federal authorities in making a concerted drive against the vendors of hooch has resulted in abating the evil, for a time at least. It has also demonstrated that a certain degree of enforcement is possible in closing up the places where this poison is sold to the unwary. Enforcement of the present law should therefore be backed up by all well thinking people as a preventive measure. While the drastic features of the Volstead act may be inconsistent with the best interests of the community because they encourage bootlegging and the manufacture of poisonous substitutes for real liquor, the only feasible way to right these evils is by enforcing the act until better means are provided. In the meantime a referendum should be submitted to the people in order to get a popular expression on the subject of prohibition and the best way to enforce it. Any return of the saloon as it previously existed, and as it still exists under cover today, should not be countenanced. Col Hayward, through the United States Attorney's office, has shown what can be done in the way of honest enforcement without persecution of individuals. He has proceeded against the rich and the poor alike and has made the padlock policy mean something by closing the places where hooch has been sold in defiance of law. The profitable trade of poisoning the people made possible by the prohibition amendment should be fought in every possible way. Dr Butler should recognize that prohibition was one of those things put over the North by the South which never intended to obey the eighteenth amendment any more than it observed the fourteenth and fifteenth amendment. The white South intended prohibition to apply only to the Negroes. The North allowed the South to put this fraud over in the same way it has permitted the South to put over its frauds against the suffrage because it lacked the courage to fight against it.

RUNNING FOR CONGRESS The flippant manner in which colored candidates for Congress can be conjured out of the unknown by some of our weekly publications is suggestive of the slight regard felt for the power and dignity of that office at the present time. It is true that the proceedings of the last two sessions of the national legislature have not been such a character as to raise the members of either house in public esteem, and it must be remembered that a representative in Congress should be a man qualified by public training and experience like the place to which he may be chosen. The Constitution requires a member of the House of Representatives shall have attained the age of five years and been seven years a citizen of the United States and who is entitled to inhabit of the State with the right to vote. Previous membership is limited to a certain number of constituencies. Secure more members will be probably be the certificate of election. But he will be required to get a secure a regiment of winning New York The flippant manner in which colored candidates for Congress can be conjured out of the unknown by some of our weekly publications is suggestive of the slight regard felt for the power and dignity of that office at the present time.

The Constitution requires that a member of the House of Representatives shall have attained the age of fifty-five years and been seven years a citizen of the United States and who is a resident of the State in which the intention is based on a previous stituency secure to the certificate of winning the election. But he may be granted a temporary security of winning the election. New York The experiment of running a colored can didate for Congress purely on the color issue was tried in Chièsgo at the last election, with disastrous results. A comparatively unknown candidate, with no constructive record or experience, was put in the field, with the use of sensational appeals and fake methods to elect him. The attempt failed, as many voters of his own race refused to support him. The putting up of weak or unknown candidates on the sole ground of their color is a primary error. The colored candidate for Congress who fills the bill should appeal to the voters of his district on the score of general fitness. First, he must be known to the voters, not only of his own race and party, but throughout his district. To bring about this condition, he must have taken part in public affairs to such an extent as to make himself known and his character and ability recognized. There are many legitimate ways in which this may be done, but it should be a previous performance of record. The raising up of weak candidates without a record merely for mercenary motives, that they may be bled to the utmost degree and then knocked down as unavailable, for real campaign purposes, is highly reprehensible and should be discountenanced. It is not only unfair to the ambitious aspirant, who is encouraged to enter on a hopeless quest for political honors, but it is harmful in discouraging a genuine movement to elect a fit candidate, when one possessing the needed requisites should loom above the horizon. Fake booms for colored candidates for Congress should be banned as unfair practice and detrimental to the real game of politics. KLAN ISSUE IN CAMPAIGN Despite all efforts on the part of both the publicans and Democrats, the Ku Klux Klan bids fair to become a lively issue in the coming presidential campaign. Surprising as may appear, it is one of the Democratic candidates for the presidential nomination, who has taken the initiative in opposing the Klan as a political factor, Senator Oscar W. Underwood of Alabama. When Senator Underwood first announced his candidacy, in an address before the Alabama legislature, nearly a year ago, The A's suggested at the time that he missed a golden opportunity by failing to denounce the Klan spirit in his own State, then manifest in a demonstration against Tuskegee Institute over the question of the Veterans Hospital personnel. Exactly what prompted Senator Underwood's subsequent defiance of the Klan does not appear, but it has been announced by his supporters, that they will endeavor to secure the adoption of an anti-Klan plan as part of the Democratic platform to be adopted at the National Convention which will meet in New York in June. The practices of the Klan as a political factor in Texas have been aired before a committee of the United States Senate in the hearing of the Mayfield contest for a seat in that body. A former officer of this hooded order detailed the wholesale system of espionage maintained and the violence and cruelties carried out by the members with the full knowledge of its higher officials. The counsel for Mr. Peddy who is contesting Mayfield's claim to election introduced testimony to prove the Klan an unlawful criminal organization in which should disqualify Mayfield for a seat in the Senate. It might have been shown that a Texas judge once held that the taking on the path of Klan membership disqualified the person taking any such obligation from holding office under the State of Texas. The action of the Klan in Georgia in supporting the candidacy of Mr. M. Adon and trying to make the Georgia delegation "an militant Klan organization" has further intensified the opposition of the Underwood forces. Representative Carlin outargue a speaking for Senator Underwood out the issue as follows.

Former Representative Carlin of Virginia speaking for Senator Underwood put the issue as follows. Senator Underwood has piedged himself and his friends in the convention will lead the fight against the machinations of the Klan. It is hoped that the other aspirants for the nomination will join hands with him in this movement. The Klan itself places the same square before the Democratic invention. It is not met with a plank similar to the one of 1850 when know nothingism was rampant but not enacted into the Democratic platform. It will be and rightly so headed as a Klan victory. We meet a surender of the most previous principles of democracy to the Dragons the beages and the tyrants in the empire. Contrasted with the Southern Democrat Senators unflinching opposition to Klan activities we find a Northern Republican Senator James F. Watson of Indiana pledging his support to the Klan candidate for error of that State. He is as reported as having the conferences in Washington with such Klan leaders as Dr. W. H.

It should have no part in American politics whether used by Democrats or Republicans. The slogan of every true American should be, smite the Klan wherever it raises its deadly head to stultify the teachings of the Constitution. A PRECEDENT FOR HOWARD As Howard University at Washington is a co-educational institution, the demand for feminine representation on its board of trustees appears to rest on a sound and rational basis. That such representation is not without precedent is shown in the case of Tuskegee Institute, the living monument to Dr. Booker T Washington's work, where Mrs. Willcox was chosen as a trustee, to take the place left vacant by the death of her husband, the late William G Willcox of New York As Howard University at Washington, a co-educational institution, the demand for feminine representation on its board oftees appears to rest on a sound and rational basis. That such representation is not without precedent is shown in the case of T. kegee Institute, the living monument to Booker T Washington's work, where M. Willecox was chosen as a trustee, to the place left vacant by the death of his husband, the late William G. Willecox, New York. This action on the part of the Tuskegee institution should encourage the doubtful, timorous conservatives, who question the expediency of choosing a woman as one of the trustees of Howard. The character a experience of the candidate proposed for a place, Dr Sara W Brown, leave no doubt as to her value as an addition to the board. The fact that Howard University undertakes the training of both sexes for professional careers indicates the advisability of the female viewpoint having expression on a governing board. As a progressive step in educational matters the choice of a woman trustee would Howard in the front rank of institution of its class. The opportunity to do this the present time in filling the existing vacancy should not be allowed to pass unproved.

At that time the Negro race was assured of a restoration of the status it had held under former Republican administrations and the sweeping out of all discriminations and abuses engendered by eight years of Democracy The bishops of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, in the general conference at Louisville, Ky., are to be commended for refraining from a too hasty indorsement of president Coolidge for re-election. This in How far these assurances have lacked fulfillment has been shown in the failure to remove the color lines that have been established in the making of appointments and promotions in the departments. The Presidential appointments accorded to the race have been fewer in number than under any previous Republican administration Since the Grant administration every Republican President has appointed a member of the Negro race as minister to Haiti while at present the white appointee of Mr. Wilson has been allowed to hold over. The Negro voters believe in the principles of the Republican party but they do not believe in its present program. They believe that their past support at the polls has entitled them to a larger recognition in the holding of public offices. They feel that their promotion from one grade to another in the public service should not be barred on account of color, if they meet the requirements of fitness and capacity. An inspector of customs should not be barred from inspecting the baggage of cabin passengers because of any tainted objection to his complexion. Segregation of employees in a department of bureau on the same pretest should not be permitted. These petty insults and discriminations are not conductive to building up party loyalty. Republican administration which permits the withholding of proper recognition to a group of party members on the ground of prejudice is not keeping faith with its own membership. The time has passed when the question of color should play an part in political recognition. INCREASE FOR POSTAL EMPLOYEES time of the branches of the Federal service which employees as a rule have received inadequate compensation for their services has been the post office. Despite the increased cost of living due to the war the Democrat Postmaster General Mr. Burleson obstinately opposed any increase in salary for the hardest worked members of the force. The result was that many these employees especially in great cities like New York were obliged to take over work after hours in order to meet their expenses. This message has been generally supported by the Republican members of both houses, as well as by many Democrats. There is every reason, to believe that the measure will be favorably reported and enacted into law before the close of the session. In a letter sent to the secretary of a Republican club in this city, Congressman Prall stated that every Democratic member of the New York State delegation in Congress is in favor of legislation giving proper compensation to all post office employees, but the Republican majority in committee refused to grant the request The latter part of this statement was refuted by those in charge of the measures which were introduced by Senator Edge and Representatives Paige and Kelly, all Republicans There should be no question of politics in the payment of adequate compensation to all classes of government employees, commensurate with the service that they are rendering the public. While the post office force in the lower grades is notoriously underpaid, there are other branches of the service where the compensation fixed a half a century ago is just as inadequate in view of the service exacted and the responsibility involved. Uncle Sam is not noted as a generous paymaster but at least he should be just in paying a living wage to all classes of his employees. Comments By The Age Editors On Sayings Of Other Editors Mr Frank Munsey emasculated edition of the Evening Sun tried to be facetious last week in printing a news article, headed Negro pickpockets flock here for convention. The convention referred to was the Democratic gathering to be held at Madison Square Garden, and the detectives told the magistrate that there had been an influx of Negro pickpockets during the last few weeks. The magistrate was quoted as saying that "there was considerable room left on the island for any who intended to pick on the Democratic party." Of course these Negro pickpockets would have no difficulty in securing platform tickets to the national convention by posing as alternates from Texas or Georgia. The Sun reporter forgot to add a warning about the members of the Ku K'ux Klan who are expected to come as delegates from these two States. Between pickpockets and Klansmen Democracy appears to be in peril. The long announced first performance of Eugene G. Neel's much discussed play, Al God's Chillun Got Wings, was finally put over as week without bloodshed or interference. The first scene in which on children were to appear was cut out owing to the refusal of Mason Huan to grant a license for the child actors. The drama is a critique of the Hera Ternum summed up in the play as presented a better than is reading indicates. A utter overdone and breathless play is a sincere exposition of a marriage between a stupid Negro and a stupid white woman. It is possible for you to get an emotion out of that situation here, your opportunity. As a tract against mis-matched marriages, Mr. O'Neil's play may have its own showing of the danger of an unright and stupid youth marrying a girl. Seated noone of these girls on the race has the right to chieve a presentation would seem to be the Negro a big ammo prows that a man can not protect him from saving The Age Readers' Forum the propriety of a strictly colored congregation in Boston. But, today we have far more colored communicants in the three colored congregations of Greater Boston than we have in the cities of Richmond, Va., Charleston, S. C., Louisville, Ky., and New Orleans, La., combined. In the three congregations referred to there are approximately fifteen hundred communicants. The colored population North is constantly augmented by colored people from the South. The colored people from the South, in the main, will have none other than separate congregations, whorem they may govern themselves. We must work along the line of least resistance. If the Church reaches them it must be in the way, most acceptable to the people themselves. The editor recommends that the missionary district plan and the suffragan plan should both be used in the North as well as in the South and insists that continued migration from the South will assist in realizing these plans. In denying the statement that colored miners were held in peonage in West Virginia Director T Edward Hill of the State Bureau of Negro Welfare and Statistics was quoted in the Norfolk Journal and Guide as follows Peonage has not existed at any time in the coal fields of West Virginia and it does not exist here now. There would be no occasion for peonage in any coal camp at this time, because for more than two years there have been several thousand and miners constantly out of work. Convict labor is not employed in the mines of this State nor are prisoners sold to industries or contractors for the payment of fines. In the largest coal producing counties in the State there are five Negro justices of the peace, elected by the people, and in each district in which they are elected white people outnumber Negroes more than two to one. There are many Negro deputy sheriffs and constables in the coal fields of the State and the surest prevention of lynching and peonage is Negro officers armed with authority of the law and one or two six guns There is no State in the Union where more friendly relations exist between the races than here in the mountains of West Virginia where members of different races work side by side receiving the same wage. Living side by side serving as election officers in the same booth—men and women of both races—voting together for and against the same candidates riding in the same cars side by side on trains, trottles buses and taxis, serving on the same juries in several counties aiding each other in civic welfare and religious activities and mutually cooperating for the advancement of all the people and the development of the greatest, fairest and best State in the United States. This recital of facts would seem to warrant the enthusiastic verdict pronounced by Director Hill. An incident that was referred to as taking the mock out of democracy was thus noted by the Houston Texas Freemen One of several advantages young co- nferred men and women who are bore and treated in the South and who receive their grammar and high school training in the South have in attending mixed schools north of Mason and Dixon line and especially in the East and Midde West is reflected as what has happened at Oberlin University, Oberlin, Ohio, where two native Texas young women, be the way one white and the other co- nferred names, Miss Florence Woodward and Miss Jessie Camington.

Discussing the Klan as a po- issue, the Kansas City Colla Republican leaders will be worse foolish if they discount the effect of Negro vote of the invasion of the Klan by the Klan. The name regalia by the principles of the Klan of the Reconstruction days were such a terror that nothing which is associated with can be welcome. Its opposition to olics and to Jews does not soften feelings any, because we have no peace with either of these. Outstanding anthropy for Negroes has character many Jews. The Catholic Church of all religious bodies cares for Negro members in spite of race prejudice. The Klan cannot win our love because of its enemies. In Ohio, Illinois, Indiana, Missouri, Kansas and other states where Klan membership is large the organization will be an issue. And in no case will make votes for Republicans in connection with the party come to be accepted by us as a fact. Democracy and this and while the Klan is southerner and therefore of Democratic origin political strategy will be to conquer with Republicans now. The selection of a well and democratic nominee, speaks trouble, fails愈 The fact that the leading candidate for the governorship in Indiana was credited with having the support of the Klan, gives point to the above editorial Ku Kluxism should have no part in Northern elections The Jacksonville Florida Seminole thinks that it was unwise for the Nationa Negro Press Association to pass a resolution condemning radicalism among Negroes. It said We are at a loss to know what meant by radicalism among Negroes as we decry any statement that Negroes are radical or inclined to be reds holieshivers. The Negro is and has been the easiest victim of persons and would exploit him and he will continue to be so until some definite programparticipated in by a majority is adopted for his protection The resolution passed by this assembly ten saviors of the same old hat that spirit of the Negro who fifty year ago had not half the opportunity to be a man that we have today. It is the same spirit which motivates the white man's Negro in to his boss and apologize for the action of somebody else when he was not connected with it in any way. And this is the method of a number of Negroes today when their tactics should be those of red-blooded men and not spineless menias. The demand for justice and the rights of citizenship is too often stigmatized as radicalism by those who withhold them from the race.

First Emmanuel Church At both the morning and evening services on Sunday Pastor Bolden preached impressive sermons in the morning Pastor Bolden preached from the text. But when the morning was come Jesus stood on the shore but the disciples knew not that it was Jesus. At John 9:14 a subject on the shore of time watching humans Paskar Bolden said, "More attention should be given to day to post resurrection. Too little stress is laid on the little things in the life of Christ, and arose from the grave. John plainly tells us in his epistle of the chief occupation of some of the people in the days of Christ, that they naturally after Christ death the disciples, though they had been told by Him that he would arise on the third day would doubt that such a thing could be possible. He said that they would go to some people to day. When they fail in one thing they quickly go back to their old jobs their old thoughts their old ideas. But in the case with the disciples they caught nothing. So it is with Christians, when they go back to their old jobs and leave Christ out they can be found in the sea. We saw a man standing on the shore, who asked them if they had caught anything. They answered, No. Then he said unto them God, How many of every Christian believer of to day they are out all night fishing for souls, men and women to bring to Christ, but on the song of the morning of their life Jesus standing on the shore of time and obeying its command. Cast your nets on the other side, put your nets on the right side, and give a great reward for our labors. We shall hear these words, "Well done thou good and faithful servant, thou hast been faithful in a few things. I will make you into the city of the Lord."

Philadelphia continues to draw crowded houses and receive most favorable comment from the Philadelphia daily papers. It is only in recent years that a large colored offering, such as 'Runnin Wild' could play longer than the usual two weeks run. We cannot stop to consider the reasons for the change other than to mention the important fact that the daily papers have done much to bring about a change of opinion. I never press agents who have not actively worked on the closed duration of a theater, and it has been all a chance in this particular case it has given the Philadelphia theatre public a chance to judge some of the best talent the race has to offer, and it gives to the younger generation,剧院ally inclined, a little better possibility for a theatrical career. While the management of the show may not be able to get the prices in Philadelphia that obtained in New York, still he has lost nothing and played at a profit. After all that is what he is in the game for. There is little doubling that the show will continue to meet with success during the entire run, here. Sidelights on "Runnln" Wild" in Philadelphia On course any one concedes the fact that F. E. M. is a very good Child. The Quaker City crowd have all joined in song that old favorite song, "You Wouldn't Know the Old Town Now." We are about wondering if our work the friend A. L.

I may be unusually slow at times in the Old Quaker City, but we don't think that the ladies of the Runnin Wild" she have a sick kink coming. There will always be a few who have to miss something.

On Saturday at Orange N.J., the Orange A A was defeated by a score of 6-4 and on Sunday the strong Washington Potomacs were defeated in a double header. Ben Tastor's team started the opening game by scoring four runs in the first frame off Starks, who was taken out in the next inning when he allowed another run. John Taylor, a new pitcher from the West took the place and held the visitors scoreless for the remainder of the game. Three pitches were used by the visitors. "Strongbeans" Williams started the game and pitched well for three innings. But when Lee scored a home run on him in the next inning he weakened and Newsome took his place. Newsome only lasted a little more than an innning and Smith finished the game. The lucky seventh was the big injury for the home team. Burnett was given his base on balls Holland who batted for kemp (who had been hit on the head by a pitched ball in the previous inning) made a safe hunt and see it flowed with a three bagger Tayler. Williams and heyden hit angles which netted four runs making the final score 9-3. Gee's batting and the heading of kemp along with the work of Leedsah at third for the visitors were features of the game. The Second Game Starks took the mound again in the second game. He was opposed by Hampton. The local team again got a bad start when four men were given their base on balls. In the second innning Hampton hit a home run scoring two men and in the fifth Starks allowed three more runs and was taken out Dave Brown missed the game and allowed only one hit. An eight innings rally by the Lincoln gave them three runs and the game. In the ninth Williams hit a three bagger Marcel a two bagger and Kenyon and Seales also got hits. By taking the double header from the Washington team the Lincoln have won seven out of nine games they played in the Eastern League the season and are likely to take the lead in the League race next Sunday when they meet the Bacharach Giants.

Harry Kenyon, star outfielder with the local team pitched and shut the visitors out, while his teammates scored three runs. Newsome was the opposing pitcher. The game was played at Recreation Park, Woodside, I. I. and was the first of a series of twilight games to be played at this park throughout the summer. Threatening weather, which caused it to get dark by eight o'clock prevented the contest from going the full nine innings. By winning the contest the Lincolnis have eight out of ten League games to their credit and are now tied with the Hildale team for second place. HILLDALE TAKES TWO GAMES FROM CUBANS Philadelphia. Pa A big second inning that netted the Hollidale team five runs was responsible for 74 victories over the Cuban Stars here on May 15.

On Saturday afternoon, May 17 the Hilldale team again stored a victory over the Cuban States the score was 87 and the game was filled with all kinds of baseball.

He outpointed Flowers in the first round, but in the second, third and fourth, Flowers put the local fighter on the defensive Willie rallied in the ninth and managed to hold the Tiger to even terms.

Daugherty dramatist editor of the Amsterdam Venus, at his home out in Jamaica, Long Island Mr. Adams enjoys the unusual honor of being the only colored man holding a handmaster's rank in the United States Navy. The St. Thomas organization, numbering approximately fifty men, is one of the outstanding musical groups of the U.S. Navy and it was organized and drilled to its present stage of perfection entirely by the youthful Bandmaster Adams. For some time there has been a desire to have this new body of men visit the United States and it is in connection with this projected trip that Mr. Adams is in the States. I understand that the Navy Department at Washington has O.K. of the concert tour and that the band will reach this country sometime during June A note received from Mr. Adams about the middle March said that the band would probably be assisted on the American tour by Pho Gomer tenor of St. Dennis and Joseph H Douglas tenor of Washington D.C. The literary probity be arranged to include most of the large titles of the country, and most of there are being forward with greatest interest in hearing the Virgin Islanders under Handmaster Adams.

"The picture was called 'The Song in the Dark,' and I guess I was pretty much in the dark all right. I only had a small part, which accounted for my short stay on the screen The only thing I could recognize about myself was the clothes I was wearing. I looked almost black on the screen because I didn't know how to put on make up. Only a flash was shown of me, and that was enough.

One Form of Heart Trouble Today we will take up, in a brief way, the heart disease which has to do with the change of the muscle fiber itself. Very often this muscle change is due to infection and comes in the course of some acute infectious disease. Acute rheumatism (and this is a frequent cause of this disease in children), diptheria, influenza, chorea (commonly known as St Vitus dance), blood poisoning and syphilis are the diseases which are most frequently the origin of heart trouble of this sort. Sometimes the patient has no sign of what is going on and the doctor discovers the condition when he makes the physical examination in the course of his treatment of the "flut" or whatever it is that the patient has. In some cases the victim is restless, weak and nervous, may look very pale and complain of pain in the region near the heart. When the pallor is extreme and the patient vomits or has spells of dizziness" and fainting, the chances are rather against him and death may be sudden or gradual. Mild cases may recover and, depending on the severity of the case, the muscle may have received permanent damage and the patient may have, or may never have, any need for anxiety from it. A chronic form of this disease is very common and is most frequently found in people over forty. It is caused by any of the above-mentioned infections or may be started by gout, or gall bladder disease diseased TONSILS or TEETH, diabetes, or anemia and by severe cases of malnutrition. This form of heart trouble may be discovered after a sudden attack of dizziness and fainting in a person who has been apparently in good health. The "heart attack" may follow some slight exertion or a mental shock. Breathlessness on exertion is one of the early signs of the hidden trouble. Breathlessness may come on in the night. INDIGESTION is one of the early important and common symptoms of heart disease. Very often the person thinks he has stomach trouble when in reality he has heart trouble. The menace to life is not easy to forecast as it depends largely on the amount of harm already done the age and habits of the patient the number of worries he has to carry, etc. The treatment will depend upon the nature of the case and should be outlined by a doctor who knows all the conditions. Careful treatment will often prolong life. If you have any of the infectious diseases mentioned above, have yourself watched, and if you have any of the symptoms named, see a doctor. Get an examination regularly at least once a year and by doing so prevent the starting of such heart troubles Leaking Valves. You have all seen leaking valves and you all know how the stream of water or oil or whatever is passing through the tube or pipe, cannot flow ahead as it should. It stays behind and if the pipe is made of soft elastic material the part back of the valve stretches to hold the excessive then the pipe usually bursts. In the human heart we find that the wall is very strong muscular tissue and if the valves do not close properly and the blood is allowed to flow backward into the chamber which was just trying to get rid of it, the muscle does not function. Instead of doing this terrible thing the muscle gets stronger and tries to force more blood through the leaky valve so that the leak may not be noticed by the system. In other words the heart muscle compensates for the leak by getting bigger and stronger and working harder. In some cases the heart muscle grows very strong indeed and the organ increases greatly in size. So as this is the case, there is no need for anxiety. If by reason of unwise and strenuous activity or overwork prolonged over a long period of time, the muscle has no endure added strain, it will finally begin to weaken and when such a thing happens we say that the heart is no longer compensating. This usually is noted by the patient because he cannot do the things he has been accustomed to do without suffering pain or dizziness, shortness of breath, etc. The cause of the inflammation which has made the valves fail to close tightly has a good deal to do with the menace of the condition. If rheumatism has caused it, the patient has a better chance of escaping from the fatal consequences and of living fifty years or so. Cabot says that if a child is suffering from this form of heart disease and you can bring him safely up to the age of twenty or twenty-one without another dose of rheumatism, he will probably live a fairly normal life and reach a goodly age. Correct teeth and remove tonsils if they are diseased and remove these sources of heart trouble. If you or a member of your family has heart disease follow the doctor's instructions and don't worry about it. PULLMAN PORTER NEWS By JAMES H. HOBANS Under date of May 10, the New York News published an article, entitled "The Pullman Company's Insult." The article, written by Logan, the New York Pullman office, having in the number of Negro applicants who applied for positions, that "those having colored men as references would have to get white men as references," was not in a position to state our opinion on the matter, for if, as it is alleged, Clerk Logan made this statement, he was not, as the writer rightly says, representing the true attitude of the Pullman company towards applicants who are vouched for by colored men of reputable standing. However, in fairness to the official named, who, after all, is an employee and subject to orders, there are certain rules by which his department is governed in order to ensure that no applicant on the rules is that no applicant is to be considered whose voucher or vouchers may be connected in any way with saloons, gambling houses, pool rooms, or other places of questionable character, and it matters not if such references come from the other hand, any applicant having recommendations from a bona fide business or professional man in his community, who states that he has known the applicant for over three years or more, is insured the same consideration as recommendations from the established banker, widening he measures up to the standard requirements. Years ago, the Pullman Company was not quite so careful who recommended its employees, it gave most of its attention to the statement made in his letters when the applicants presented. Recently, the company has issued the policy of promoting deserving porters to official positions, it not only investigates the applicant, but also the person who vouches for him. This puts a responsibility on both parties. This system of handling recruit porters is approved by the vet department, and provides protection to them as well as to the company. Furthermore the management has learned that frequenters of pool rooms, gambling houses and hooch parlors are not the class of men which they want to serve their patrons. How can any of them be the white or black, blame the company? The trouble with many of our business men is that they do not attach importance or responsibility to the giving of references the war that the union has undertaken and to work in sufficient proof to them of his capability and honesty to fill any job where colored men are employed. It never occurs to them that the individual may have just come out of prison. For the union, the union has the right way in the matter of giving references to members of our race irrespective of who they are or from whence they come, allow us to say. Carelessness on the part of the company in need of employees is a thing the union has, and this has been created through the suggestion of the Board. The bulk of this corporation. They have assisted the white officials of the company just which class of people are to be hired and they have not taken black references either. With the respect to the news story we believe that the affair of the firm in company will be after the firm and explain that the firm is the best team and selection of the best service. We lean the affair need not have been employed in the New York court trial for the past fifteen years and that the present position has contributed with the rank and file of the men has been of a courageous and affable nature. Also, the has saved many a man from being a slave from the service during the fifteen years. Inquiring of Mr. Ivan as I waiter or not the company was drawing the color line the answer came emptily at. No. He then look from his a number of applications that he applied and filled when he applied and our four colored men when asked if he knew what must be the News Article he replied it was the application of a former employee who was re-committed to a company that generally known in the industry as a plant had charged on account of failure and profanity which he had to higher officials. He added known if I felt inclined to accept him I would not because on the top of his former service card was plainly written. "Not to be re-employed," that in lieu of my hands. We treat we have made clear the question accepting men as such for appraisal applying for position in the fullman service.

(By JESSE O. THOMAS) Atlanta, Ga. The Georgia State Teachers and Educational Association held its annual convention May 1 2 3 at St Philip's A M E Church, Savannah, Georgia State of Georgia, only ten of them are for Negroes and of the ten only five have adequate teaching staff and laboratory library equipment to entitle them to group one. It is significant to ob From a point of view of real genuine hospitality and cordial social courtesies no city in the nation can surpass Savannah. The entire citizenship of Savannah seems to have recognized itself as a committee of one whose duty it was to see to it that every stranger "Within our gates" during the convention should have every reasonable courtesy and consideration that his social station and educational status would entitle him to. The public support given the convention was equally as praiseworthy. At every evening meeting the convention including the gallery was occupied by enthusiastic citizens of Savannah leading their whole hearted support for the success of the convention, as well as taking advantage of the occasion to hear new word spoken or point of view established looking toward an aggressive and progressive step in the education of their children. In these two respects the convention was an outstanding, overwhelming success. The teachers of Savannah and those interested in the conduct of the convention owe the generous public of that hospitable domain a debt of gratitude for the generous and unselfish support they so cheerfully gave that the convention might be a success and that every visitor might feel the heart strungs of the people of Savannah pulsating every avenue of human endeavor. From a point of view of real educational help growing out of departmental discussion the convention was almost a failure. The program of the convention was poorly arranged. For example, Friday morning from 9 to 10 o'clock was given over to an automobile ride and sight seeing discussion. In the first place this was wellough impossible. I question at any one has ever known a sight seeing discussion in any large city to be conducted in one hour time. In the second place there was nobody in charge no one knew what places of interest was supposed to be covered. As a consequence they did the normal thing each automobile took us to the places that seemed of interest to the person in charge of the car. And some of the cards did not return until around 13 o'clock. The program was made up by placing the names of persons on without their consent or knowledge. The writer did not talk to a single individual who was on program who knew that he was to appear on program until he reached the city of Savannah and got hired of an official program. A former teacher of Atlanta University, for example, who has been at Columbia University for the entire school year, was on program. The difficulty seemed to have been that the executive officers of the association had no part in making up the program. Some of the cabiners members living in Savannah stated that they did not know what the program was until they saw it in print. Friday afternoon was given over to a boat ride which was enclosed by all who had the good fortune to be on board. The hat returned to Savannah about eight inches. Teachers were tired and were directly at the room. Not more than per cent of the teachers attended the evening session which was an national meeting. The first evening was given over to welcome addresses and requests at an address by Paul W. Chapman superintendent of national agriculture state office. Ms. W. M. Brehme president of the National Association of Teachers and Mrs. W. give the principal dress in that evening. We have already said that the evening meetings were successful so far as the attendance was concerned. Outside of the evening meetings about one hour and forty-five minutes was spent in discussion with peers pertaining to education including departmental and general topics. Seventy people scheduled for an program only twenty did a near automobile excursion and that rule had been planned for Natlays of all advantages.

It is significant to observe that four of these five represent private institutions where financial support is secured for the most part of the State of Georgia. In the State of Georgia there are 745,435 children in public schools 275,195 are Negroes 17,684 teachers 12,532 are white 5,155 are colored. The racial population of Georgia is 1958,617 white and 1,206,655 colored. Of the white population 272,859 are urban and 12,230 are rural. Of the Negro population 271,050 are urban and 933,329 are rural. Of the 1958,617 white population 265 accredited high schools are provided for them and in the same state there is provided for the 1,206,655 Negroes ten accredited high schools for Negro children and four of these are private institutions. It is fair to the Negro children that our educational conventions should fail to recognize the need for formulating a State wide educational program to cover the period of years calculated to change the unfortunate situation. Senate Bill No. 1337 originally the Smith Tower and later the Sterling Tower at present House Bill No. 1923 known as the Reed Sterling have for its purpose the cooperation of the Federal Government in the educational work of the various states. It is of sufficient importance to have engaged the attention of any group of Negro educators in session. 5th Annual Observance Of Educational Week The fifth annual observance of Educational Week under the auspices of the Delta Delta Society was marked in New York by activities much more interest directed by the Rhio and Alpha Beta Chapters. These events included a musical program on the W. W. A. and its aim and a gathering together of the younger Negro students in a dinner at the West 12th street. In their meetings, they addressed Mrs. Alice Durie Nelson at W. W. W. A. Del direction of the program department of the Society which this drive was one of the most important and esteemed events.

How interesting this article would be if I could tell you about some of the latest articles that have been written by people that have been interested by people that have been the sporting settlers. But as this book was finished last year, some of the pictures were made last year, two years ago and even as far back as three years. Anyway I am going to discuss what I have. The picture found is 'New York a Dancing Hall' a group of small girls and their teacher Miss Amanda Kemp. This group the pride of New York, have their annual show and dance each year. One of the great photograph stars is the one of the teenage who was featuring when this picture was taken. Come on follow me. We also find Tim Drummon former leader of the Black Belt band who won fame on the battle field of Europe, and later as director of the orchestra. The next interesting picture in the Whitman Sisters and their Gang. As I have them I will join in with the rest and see they are wonderful. There are three artists that New York went to over this picture of Margaret Stums Thadius Deaton and Gertrude Lundgren was taken with they were feal. They both built Luna. Parton on one of their talented dancers Nina Leroy Nirel. At last we meet the two Charles face to face. Two great artists one of the stage and the other of the screen Charles and the pin who has brought fame and honor to the cinema and the monologue of fear to the Imperial Jones and Charles Day who is known around the world and loved by millions especially for his portraits of ambitions youth. The most interesting picture is a group of six stuff girls called Debutantes for 1923. In this group girls one we see are of and looking for success. This girl Miss Marion Moore is the daughter of our editor Fred B. Moore.

There were 347 graduates and I think about 80 of them were colored. It certainly was very glad to see as many as that because when I graduated five years ago from there, there were not too many girls that go there, and many of the girls that go there, are from Brooklyn and Long Island. I have often wondered why more girls from New York don't attend the school, because they will teach you any trade that you could possibly do. I have always been in a length of time. Then they will give you a position and will keep in touch with you and keep you in a job as long as you do what is right. I have been working five years and in that time I have had two jobs; both the school gave me, and I have been working there. I have to leave this, my second job, they would give me another. I have heard once or twice that the colored girls were not encouraged to go to that school, but if anyone were to ask any colored girl that has graduated from there, I am sure they would need to have someone else they would need. Sometimes age now where there might be built another trade school up town. It would be wonderful if it would happen and I hope they will I suppose a lot of you will wonder why I have write about this, it because I have been interested in this school and how well I was getting along I received two or three personal letters from girls who were very much interested in the school. So I hope my letter will interest more girls, especially those who will graduate from public school, and then they can write to me. Also in my next letter I will write more about the school which should interest any girl who soon expects to make her own living, goodbye until next week. Audrey Pollen 313 Last 54th street New York DEAR GIRLS Tonights the "Wonder Girls" are at Fuster's house. As you know, we are all preparing for her wedding in June. As time is limited we are not only working our mouths but our hands as well. Thus we face the fact that we have been busy, nevertheless we always read the column and discuss the various articles in it. We certainly were sorry that our negligence in writing necessitated the editor putting in the recent notetone so often that we were forced to show that our interest has not waned. Mr. Kumins states that she is still practicing basketball and is getting acquainted to handling a bat in playing baseball and advise one not to be in it while playing the ball is in a gas it might accidently go in the wrong direction. Moonhearts expects to compete in the Olympic games next season. Theel wishes to know why she nor ever expected that she would write again. Her address is 437 33rd street Toastie has nothing to say other than that she hopes she will be successful in getting "Buster S" bouquet Teddy the artist she is a perfect 86. Who knows? "Bubbles" must be reforming as she wishes to announce that she will not at tend any dance this coming week. Buster's mouth is full of pins and therefore she will have to write her message herself. As for myself I have nothing to say other than to promise to write again soon. Superlvy "BILLY BOY" New York City The Editor of The New York Age asks the girls who are members of the With Our Girls' column to inform him of their interest has abated to the extent that they do not care for the continuance of the column.

Impromptu Musicales In Cafeteria and Lobby Were Features of Music Week Thursday evening, May 22, closes the Spring Carnival given by the Calendar Clubs of this Branch. This year the clubs are assisted by the Girl Reserves and Beaux-Arts clubs, the Physical and the Educational Departments, and the carnival was a splendid example of cooperative effort. We are grateful indeed to our members for the enthusiasm and faithful service which they have given. The regular Members Business Meeting will be held on Monday May 20 and carnival reports will be given. On Sunday May 18 the delegates to the eighth National Convention of the YWCA gave interesting reports to the session. Our Music Week celebration in the Branch was delightful. It consisted of music at the cafeteria every night during dinner time except on Friday night when I had a Smith Society Orchestra and a Holly. Those who part in succession of the efforts were Mr. C. Hirst first pianist, Rudolph Dunlark composer, Mrs. Hazel Thomas, Val of impatient Miss Virginia Shirland pianist, C.
