Former Bootlegger, Moe Immerman, Is Allied To Be At Head of Combination Of White Bankers Who Have Extraordinary "Influence" With Certain Officers Of The Police Department.
According to what appears to be reliable reports, there is a concerted effort being made to put Negro numbers' bankers out of business that the enormous profits may be monopolized by a group alleged to be headed by Moe Immerman, formerly one of the most notorious of the Jewish bootleggers operating in Harlem.

U. S. Senator Walter E. Edge was renominated in Tuesday's Primary, beating his opponent, National Committeeman Hamilton F. Kean, by a majority of 55,000.
Evidence of Moe Immerman's connection with this phase of the "numbers" gambling, and of his receiving the assistance of certain of the men connected with the police department is declared to be seen in several incidents occurring within the past few days. Those in touch with the situation say that raids on the rooms of colored men suspected of being engaged in this business have been made by officers who received their information from Immerman or some of his tours, and that these same officers are careful not to interfere with Moe or any of his employees.

Seven. of Nine Raters Composing the Session Unite Int Request to Rev. Frank M. Hyder That He Relinquish Pastorate. But Minister Declines to Agree to Suggestion That He Give Up The Pulpit.
FINAL AGREEMENT IS REACHED TO SUBMIT ENTIRE QUESTION TO CONGREGATION BODY IN A MEETING CALLED FOR OCTOBER FIRST
The membership of St. James Presbyterian Church, 59-61 West 137th street, the Rev. Frank M. Hyder, pastor, is in considerable of a turmoil; following the action of a group of seven of the nine elders constituting the Session of the church in presenting a petition to the pastor asking him to resign from the pastorate of the church.
This the pastor refused to do, but expressed a willingness to submit the matter to the consideration of a congregational meeting, with the action of that body to be accepted as decisive. The seven elders are reported to have refused to agree to this position.
Withhold Statements.
Dr. Hyder, when seen by an Age reporter, declined to make a formal statement for publication, saying that, he was resting the matter entirely on his ecclesiastical and constitutional right to
Petition Read Sunday.
The petition was first presented to Dr Hyder by a group of his opponents, led by Dr. H. C. Blue, assistant secretary of the Sesson, on Saturday evening, September 6, but it was not made public until Sunday, the 21st, when it was read to the congregation at the morning service. It will be read again on Sunday, September 28, according to requirement of the church law. One of the largest congregations seen in St James for some time was at this service, as rumors had been flying for two weeks through the church membership, and all were expectant of executing revelations. Three principal reasons were given in the petition" as a basis for the asking of Dr Hyder's resignation, each reason attributing some lack to the pastor.
Charges Against Pastor.
It was charged that the growth of the church has been retarded; that the financial strength has been weakened, and that there have been serious reflections up on the minister's moral integrity. The latter evidently refers to disclosures of alleged acts by the pastor which were investigated by the New York Presbytery. Dr Hyder being completely and absolutely exonerated. The pastor demes that either membership or finances are retragrading. Following the refusal of the seven members of the Session to submit the matter to a congregational meeting, Dr Hyder caused the circulation of a petition for signature by members of the church, asking for a congregational meeting, in accordance with the church law. It is stated that when some 300 members had signed this call, the Session agreed to make the call itself, which was done, and the meeting, to be held Wednesday evening, October 1, at 9:30 o'clock.
Withhold Statements.
Dr. Hyder, when seen by an Age reporter, declined to make a formal statement for publication, saying that, he was resting the matter entirely on his ecclesiastical and constitutional right to have the matter considered by the entire membership and not by a group of seven For the seven elders, Dr. Blue also refrained from making a statement for publication, saying that it was a church matter and it was to be considered and settled within the walls of the church and not through the columns of newspapers

Minister's Marriage To YoungWoman Of His Church Stirs Members and Friends
Dr. Thornton of Bethel Weds Alma Douglass Brown, the Ceremony Occurring in Philadelphia and Now John Urquhart Claims She Had Married Him and He Starts Legal Action to Establish Status.
Another Report Is That Thornton Had Led Parishoners To Believe He Intended To Marry Another Girl, Friend of Bride, and That This Girl Finally Changed Her Mind and Married Another.
The recent marriage of the Rev. Dr. Montrose W. Thornton pastor of Bethel A. M. E. Church, West 132nd street, to Miss Alma Douglass Brown, a beautiful young woman member of that church, has been followed by an aftermath that is stirring the congregation of that church and the hosts of friends of the popular minister.

Whether or not the marital tie was actually consumed is not brought out, but the marriage was duly announced it is said, and the young couple were felicitated by their many friends. Incidentally, it is asserted that Alma's mother, a Mrs. Douglass, was decidedly opposed to her association with Urquhart and was not reconciled to the subsequent marriage.
Was Cooper's Successor.
In assuming the presidency of the usher board, Urquhart succeeded young Cooper, son of the pastor who preceded Dr. Thornton at Bethel, the Rev. John Cooper, whose friends at Bethel made a determined effort to keep him as pastor in defiance of Bishop Heard'sukase. And the story that is told indicates that he also succeeded young Cooper in the affection of the charming Alma. For Alma was desperately in love with young Cooper, it is alleged, and the report has it that she tried to end her life by the poison route when Cooper's mother turned down the request of Mrs. Douglas that the young couple he allowed to get married. Mrs. Cooper is repitted to have replied to the girl's mother, when the marriage was suggested, that the boy was too young to think of marriage and that anyway he must complete his studies before taking any such step.
Girl Attempted Suicide.
Alma was in despair and made a determined effort to "shuffle off this mortal cell." Only that immediate medical aid was green saved her life, it is said. The Cooper family finally, after litigation over the pulpit at Bethel had ended in Thornton's favor, went on to Boston to Dr. Cooper's new charge. Then Alma and Urquhart began their romance. Although the opposition of her mother was unavailing to stop Alma's association with Urquhart, and the marriage which followed it seemed to come into play with sufficient energy to present Alma from finally joining her husband in the cosy little nest when he had finished "building" it at 182 West 135th street. Although the groom spent
goodly sum of money in fixing
u. the home, the bride never
came to it, it is reported.
Mother Took Her Away.
The next development was that
Alma and her mother had shaken
the dust of New York from their
flapper skirts and departed for
the flower decked and fruit laden
vistas of California. And al-
though many of their friends re-

was pre-knowledge of expected developments from the California trip, and that he had kept in constant touch with movements of Miss Brown and her mother, and that his association with the Murray girl was a sort of camouflage. In this connection it is pointed out that the girl and her mother were not known to have returned to New York until Alma came as Mrs. Thornton. The outcome of John Urquhart's legal suit as awaited with curious anxiety
And when direct word did come to him, it was in the shape of a newspaper announcement that on Monday, July 7, 1924, Alma Douglass Brown Urquhart had become the wife of the Rev. Dr. Montrose W. Thornton, her pastor, the ceremony being performed at the residence of Mrs. C. F. Boggs. 30 South Ruby street, Philadelphia, with the Rev. Dr. Watkins as the officiating minister.
Now there is a further complication through the launching of a legal action by the aggrieved husband or ex-husband, John Urquhart, who had papers served on the new Mrs Thornton some two weeks ago. Dr. Thornton disclaimed all knowledge of the affair until publication of the story concerning the beginning of an action in the courts.
Thornton's Mother Surprised.
The marriage of Dr. Thornton came as a surprise to the members of his congregation, and even to his mother, who kept house for him at Bethel's parsonage, 52 West 132nd street, adjoining the church. The first intimation, according to reports, which came to Dr. Thornton's mother was a telegram received on Thursday, July 10, telling her of the marriage and instructing her to have dinner prepared for a party of three on the next evening. Friday, when the bridal bridal couple would arrive from Atlantic City, where they had spent a few days honeymooning.
The pastor's mother, after much cogitating over the words, "Dinner for three," finally concluded that her son meant to include her in the wedding dinner celebration as a delicate compliment, or as a sueing for forgiveness for not having taken her into his confidence as to the projected marriage, but this pleasing thought was changed on Friday when the bride's mother, Mrs. Douglass, put in her appearance and let it be known that she was to be the third dinner guest in her daughter's new home.
Another Girl in Case.
The credulity of members of the congregation was strained to the utmost, for most of them were of the opinion that Dr Thornton was planning to marry another young girl of the congregation, Miss Ella Murray, a high school student and a friend of Miss Brown, with whom she was associated in church auxiliary organizations. This girl, during the absence of Miss Brown in California, was frequently seen in company with Dr Thornton, and it was alleged that her parents. Mr and Mrs. Joseph Murray, who lived at 110 West 134th street, were in entire accord with their daughter in her liking for the minister Mr Murray was one of the officers of Bethel, and it is suggested that Mrs Murray had visions of seeing her daughter erested in the dignified robes of a ministers wife.
Some comment was occasioned in this connection when Dr Thornton attended a district conference of his church some months ago, and had Miss Murray in attendance as his personal guest, with the full knowledge and consent of her parents. This action, it was thought, was the procurer of their impending marriage, to be followed by a trip to the general conference. This did not eventuate, however, and there is a rumor to the effect that young Miss Murray, who is still a school girl, has become enamoured of a youth of her own age, and there is an unconfirmed report to the effect that she is all ready married.
Did Ella Turn Him Down?
The Murray's are now living at Huntington, Long Island, on some of the friends of both suits intimate a belief that Miss Murray finally rejected the preacher and that he then turned for consultation to her friend. Alma who had in the meantime obtained what she claims is an annulment of the ceremony which made her Mrs Urquhart. But the minister's enemies are suggesting a more sinister phase. They are suggesting that there
369th Infantry Completes Two Weeks' Tour of Duty At State Camp, Peekskill
Under Col. Arthur Little, Regimental Commandant, the Colored Soldiers Made a Splendid Record of Efficient Service and Development—The Wartime Commander, Col. Hayward, Visited Camp.
The 369th Infantry, N. Y. N. G. Col. Arthur Little commanding, broke camp at Peekskill, N. Y., on Sunday, September 21, and returned to the city after a most successful two weeks' stay.
The vast majority of the 900 men who entrained with the regiment were new in the army, but after the period of intensive training they returned to the city much better soldiers and greatly improved in their physical condition.
Their training included daily drills, hikes, target practice and the use and care of army equipment. In their off hours they enjoyed athletic contests and other games, formed a glee club and singing chorus, which, with band, under command of Lieut. Eugene Mikell, entertained the regiment with music.
Men Made Fine Record:
At the request of their commanding officer, the Volstead Law was rigidly observed and in every respect the morale of the regiment was unusually high, and only two men were put in the guard house during the two weeks. They were confined for only a few hours for minor offenses. When the Old Fifteenth Regiment went to Peekskill in 1917 they found the camp practically a wilderness, and had to do lots of work in laying out company streets and in building the barracks and mess halls. But this year the regiment found the camp equipped with the best of every

trustees declined to comment on the statements made by the various speakers, but Mr. Wood spoke briefly, without commuting himself in any way other than to say that the trustees must in honor support the administration they had put in charge of affairs at Fisk until it was shown incontrovertibly that the school was being harmed by such a policy
Dr H. H Proctor, president of the Fisk Club was unavoidably prevented from being present at the opening, but came in during the meeting and spoke briefly or conditions at Fisk as he found them on a recent visit. He referred to the fact that as an alumnus of Yale University he had a voice in the affairs of that great institution, but that no such privilege was accorded him at Fisk.
Dr. W. E. B DuBois presided at the meeting, and at conclusion of the speeches, exhibited copies of the "Fisk Herald," an alumnu publication, which he said was being resurrected and would be circulated among the alumni and friends of the school. The need of funds for financing of the movement to bring about better conditions at Fisk was spoken of, and more than $1,000 was pledged by a few of those present, eight subscribing $100 each.
The meeting closed with the singing of "The Fisk Song," led by Dr. Ernest R. Alexander, the last verse and chorus of which are as follows
"To Heaven to Country and to Thee.
Our hearts shall first and last be true."
We even shall die with loyalty

Distinguished Visitors.
More than 4,500 visitors, most of whom went on Sunday, September 14, visited the regiment during its stay at Peekskill, Col William Hayward, former commander of the regiment, was among the guests and was given a royal welcome by his former comrades. General Geo. L. Rickards, in command of all militia forces of the country, paid a two-day visit to the regiment, and after inspecting the men declared that they were the equal of any similar regiment he had ever seen. State Senator Duncan T O'Brien, who secured favorable legislation for the regiment, was also among the guests.
Colonel Arthur Little, Lieut Col. Seth B. McClirton, the regimental adjutant, Captain Otto Steadman, and all the other officers, are proud of the showing the men made while in camp, and feel that the 369th has entered upon a new period of development and service to New York City and the country. The men are now in their new armory and announcement will be made at an early date of the fall and winter activities the regiment will undertake.
Fred R. Moore, with John Connors, Jerry Preston and Mr Washington, were guests of Col Little and the officers of the regiment at the camp on Friday, September 19. The trip was made by motor in Mr. Connor's car and a most enjoyable day was spent

The Rev. CHARLES H. TRUSTY.
ELECTION OF NEGRO MODERATOR STIRS CHURCH PRESBYTERY
Pittsburgh Presbyterians Are Divided On Question of Honor Paid Dr. Charles H. Trusty.
Pittsburgh, Pa—The elevation of the Rev. Dr Charles H. Trusty to the office of moderator of the Pittsburgh Presbytery of the Presbyterian Church—the largest Presbytery in the United States—has injected the race question! into a situation which already was so delicate that it required all the coolness and caution of church leaders to present
Dr Trusty, pastor of the Grave Memorial Church, north side, and freely admitted to be an exceptionally able representative of his race, was raised to the moderatorship last Tuesday over Rev. Dr. Frank J. Bryson, pastor of the fashionable First Church, in an election-marked by much confusion. Heated comment has followed this action. There are predictions that the hostility aroused is so deep that a movement designed to dethrone Dr. Trusty may looked for
Through inquiry has established that Dr. Lurysty's elevation was not the result of any preconceived plan. There has been no scheming, no were pulling, no political maneuvering of any kind. The Res. O Newton Verner, who nominated Dr. Trusty in the Presbytery meeting, asserts that nobody else in the auditorium knew of his intended action.
Dr Vernér Upholda Move
"I had not talked with anybody else about it," said Dr. Verner, and I had no motive other than to give deserve recognition to a man and to a race. Far as I know, the election of a Negro has stirred to unfriendly feeling. No expressions of disapproval have come to me and I have received commendation from many. Dr. Trust's church was the first Negro congregation organized in the Pittsburgh Presbytery. Two other congregations, Bethesda and Bedwell Street have been organized under Dr. Trust's supervision. If the hour of the moderationship was to go to a Negro it seemed logical and fair that Dr. Trust's as pastor of the mother church should be the man selected. Months ago I talked informally with the pastors of these two other Negro churches, Dr. Benjamin F. Glasco and Dr. C. B. Allen and both of them expressed the view that Dr. Trusty was the man to receive any preferment. For a long time I had it in mind to nominate Dr. Trusty for moderator and I acted on this intention last Tuesday. That's all there is to it, just bestowing recognition where recognition is richly due.
Dr. L. M. Gasson, for many years
Secretary of the Board of Freedmen to
the Presbyterian Church, with offices
in this city, said Dr. Trusty's election
was the logical result of education along
broad lines.
There is a must kindly feeling they
ward the Negro in this district said
Dr. Gasson and this feeling is due
in great measure to the efforts of the
Freedmen. Bound to graduate social
hatred I don't believe there was anything
at a political nature back of Dr.
Trusty's election at all. It was
naturally spontaneous. Dr. Trusty is
a thoughtful man and he is a leader among
his own people. Like virtually all the
more intelligent and educated Negroes,
he never has manifested any spirit
ward his white associates that he is
regarded as in the smallest degree
of tenure. I feel sure that in the admin
stitution of his important office he
will give any of his supporters reason
for regret.
Protests Are Heard
The appointm of Dr. Trusty + friends howevef no token among those outside their circle. The quarters from which expression of protest and revolt are raised make it clear they are not
the result of momentary ill-feeling None of those leaders in the Presbyterian Church here who deplore Dr Trusty's election will permit the use of their names While few, if any, of them have aught to say against Dr Trusty individually, they deprecate the election of a Negro to preside over the Presbytery as extremely unwise impolite and ful of embarrassing possibilities
"As in every large group, there are men and women in the Pittsburgh Press burytion with strong aversion toward the Negro when he appears as an asspirant for social equality. There are some who have come from the South and who are saturated with the traditions and the prejudices of the South. There are others, Northerners, in all their outlook, who have become alarmed by manifestations of forwardness on the part of Southern Negroes coming to this city of steel mills in droves, and who are acquiring an emphatic opposition to anything that suggests Negro ascendency. What will happen, it is said, if students in the Theological Seminary object to ordination under a Negro? And what about the ceremonials attendant upon the installation of ministers into new pastorates? Will all such ministers take kindly to the idea of receiving ministration at the hands of a Negro officer?
Withdrawal Statement.
Possibly Dr. Trenty himself senses something in this critical situation that has developed after once authorizing a statement for publication, ex-publication, expressing his feeling over the election and his views on the racial problem as it affects the Church, he forbade use of the statement and declined to make any statement whatsoever on the plea that he "would be in danger of being misunderstood."
Dr Glasco pastor of the Bidwell Street Church established under Dr Trusty's guidance expresses gratification over the elevation of his associate Dr Trusty's elevation to the Moderatorship is both a tribute to him individually and the other members of his race" he said. When a man measures up to the standards of the Presbyterian ministry he is necessarily not a man of low intellectual and moral level to say the least, and Dr Trusty measures up to that standard. For myself, I believe the Presbyterian Church in requiring high standards of its ministers is doing much to eradicate the race question for the more Negroes we have who are willing to give the time and work and sacrifice myself in entering the Presbyterian ministry the less our white brothers will show a disposition to maintain racial lines as illustrated by Dr Trusty's elevation. And there is a growing number of Negro boys who are ready to meet the requirements with all they entail."

Harlem can boast of one of the most interesting businesses in Greater New York. Not simply because the hat factory at 117 West 135th street is the smallest in the city, but because it is operated by Frank Yancy, a colored man, who spent several thousand dollars and overcame mountains of obstacles and discouragement in his effort to learn the business.
As definitely as most men are called to preach or to enter other professions, Mr. Yancy feels that he was called to be a hatter, and not a small hatter at that for he has visions of making his business one of the most successful of its kind. These visions are becoming realities too, for since the establishment of the business on August 15, 1921, the annual gross receipts have steadily increased. It was incorporated in June of this year as Yancy and Son Hat Manufacturing Corp. and has already entered upon a period of expansion
Frank Yaney was born in Augusta, Ga., about 38 years ago but was taken to Cordele, Ga., while an infant. While in public school his whole ambition was to become a lawyer. But financial necessities forced him to quit school after completing the fifth grade and for a while he worked as an apprentice to a tailor. After a year out of school he returned and completed the seventh grade. He then went to work again as a dishwasher in a hotel. From dishwasher he was raised to fry cook, and later became a waiter.
Overheard Hat Talk.
As a waiter he began traveling working in the North in summer and in Florida in the winter While in Daytona. Fla, he overheard a conservation between a retail hat store proprietor and a jobber, relative to the enormous profits to be made in hat manufacturing. This conversation was so interesting to him that he later went back to the store and talked with the dealer about the same subject. From the time of this conversation on, he knew that he wanted to learn the hat trade and began planning ways and means of doing so.
He commuted his work at the hotel in the day but paid $50 to a hat cleaner to teach him all he could about the business in the evenings. Mr Yancy says that although his hours were supposed to be from 8 to 10 p.m. he oftimes worked until after midnight. He continued this for nine

Founder and President of Frank Yancy and Son, Hat Mige one branch of the business he had not learned about and that was the chemicals that went into the manufacturing process
He applied at several chemical factories but could not get work but finally, by giving his labor free, he did get an opening in one of these plants and in this way learned of the chemist is used. He experimented and experimented until he was able to take the wool, fur and chemist's and complete the making of a hat even to putting in the band. During the war he was in Davenport, O., and in the evenings took a business course in one of the high schools there. His plan was to return to New York and settle down, and this he did in 1913.
Since establishing this facto he has built hats for prompt colored people in many sections of the country. Jobbers and retail stores in other sections of the city, knowing of his abilities have recently shown an indication to give him orders for work and he now has all he can do. He is teaching his son the trade, and is willing to help other colored boys to learn. Although the trade is seasonally expert hatters get from $36 to $50 per day while the average workman, called in trade parlance, "local hatters" are paid $10 to $20 per day. Mr. Yantey has a number of salesmen on the road and soon to be able to move to large quarters.

dightest sign of a lisp. This report was submitted to Miss O'Connell, but that lady, stubbornly refused to reconsider her previous decision that Miss Arline did have a lisp and so was unable to take the teachers' training course.
On September 12, Mrs. Davis brought the matter to the attention of Alderman: Smith, who questioned mother and daughter closely as to the facts in the case convinced as to the girl's eligibility and satisfied that if it was not really a case of attempted race discrimination, it at least had all the earmarks of such a condition. Mr. Smith immediately wrote a letter to Dr. M. Samuel Stern, vice-president of the Board of Education of New York County, calling his attention to the alleged discrimination.
Dr. Stern referred the case to the district superintendent, John S. Roberts who wrote Mr. Smith, on September 16, that the matter would be inquired into, adding, however, "that it is not fair to believe that she was rejected because of 'deliberate race prejudice' because we are very anxious to have colored young, men and women of good character, and education become teachers in our schools
Girl Finally Admitted.
As a result of the prompt acco
of Alderman Smith, Miss
Davis was admitted to the.Train-

One week after the matter
was brought to his attention.

is follows.

"Mama Lizzie" Thanks The Age For Consideration In Her Case Against "Papa Fat"
Writes Letter Declaring That She Is Only Looking For Real Justice and To Protect Her Good Name—Asserts That Hers Had Been Good, Moral Life, Esteem and Good Will of Neighbors.
The stage is set for the schoolational East Side Drama in which Sidney Vogel, in the role of "Papa Fat," is playing opposite Mrs. Elizabeth, William, the woman in the case, known as "Manuna Lizzie."
As a prologue, before the curtain rises on the court room scene, characterizing the Jew and Gentile of today, Mrs. Vogel in a letter to The New York Age says:
hard on me for many reasons that perhaps may be brought out later. I am looking only for real justice, and that I believe I will get through my attorney, Mr. Louis, A. Layelle, although I do feel that my many friends have somewhat forsaken me.
"It is only most natural. Our friends all in a way love Papa Fat and although just common law wed, we loved a good moral life. None can say otherwise. He always acknowledged me every and anywhere. And for this trouble to come as it has although I am a good woman, they
I want to thank you very much for the kind consideration shown me through your paper. The New York Age. My case. I feel, has been rather of the Beard of Education: in reference to the admission of Miss Carrie Arlyns Davls to the New York Training School for Teachers, at 119th street, between St. Nicholas and Seventh avenues, has been referred to me.
I shall make inquiries as to the reasons why this young lady has been rejected, but I feel, however, that it is not fair to believe that she was rejected because of deliberate race prejudice because we are very anxious to have colored young men, and women of good character and education become teachers in our schools. Very truly yours.

hard on me for many reasons that perhaps he brought out later. I am looking only for real justice, and that I believe I will get through my attorney, Mr Louis A. Layelle, although I do feel that my many friends have somewhat forsaken me. "It is only most natural. Our friends all in a way love "Papa Fat," and although just common law wed, we lived a good moral life. None can say otherwise. He always acknowledged me every and anywhere. And for this trouble to come as it has, although I am a good woman, they know that, but who can understand? They seem to feel, as people, change so these days, that their "Mama Lizzi" must have also changed, and got reckless, otherwise "Papa Fat" could never have done as he did because he was so good of me. You see he evidently talked a lot he didn't mean. I have done nothing to hum or anybody.
I don't want so much notoriously but how am I able to show my friends otherwise that I am guilty of no wrong? All of our friends know that I was respected among the family of "Papa Fat's", brothers as his wife. Nobody understands their indifference now, and none of them would want to frelieve that "Papa Fat" signed an affadavit to the effect that he never lived with me and never furnished food or clothing. I am very broad
minder, and had anyone of his brothers
talked the matter over, and would
inform a proper agreement, with which
would have been better by the
the method that was taken.
True enough I lived as his common law wife, but we lived as good—and true—a life as though we had been married at the church.
I am somewhat annoyed regarding a statement made regarding the visit made at Belleville Hospital. It is a positive fact that he was permitted to see me when the two ladies had been denied a visit. don't want his or my friends to feel that I said, he called as my my husband. I know he got in, but how, that I can't say, and tell the truth and I won't tell a lie, on the fellow. The truth being so plain in our case not the slightest lie as needed. (Truth speaks for itself.
"Just why should "Papa Fat" sign an affavit to the effect that he never lived with me, never found food or clothes? Our friends on the East Side know better and his brothers also know that its downright lie.
"I will greatly appreciate the good feeling of all of our friends who feel to stick by me for I have done nothing wrong. I also ask them not to feel real bitter against "Papa Fat" although he has done me a great wrong. I am almost sure there are some very important things he does not understand. One can't blame me for I am only trying, as said before, for justice. I want to show my or our good friends that I am still the "Mama Lifetime. I have been for these many years."
"I am almost sorry you brought Rev. Garner and Alderman Hurrels in my case. I did tell you of them allowing how all around. I had done with my case, but not to publish. I knew I was telling the truth about my case and that something must be wrong somewhere, and such a case should the lobbied into. I had no money to fight them with, but God has been good to me. I thank you and trust that God be with you and bless you ELIZABETH WILLIAMS VOGEL

Thomas Henry Wright, one of the best-known citizens of New York, and a Mason noted throughout the United States and Canada, died at this late residence, 710 Hancock street, Brooklyn. Wednesday, September 17, 1921, at 1 a.m. as the direct result of a paralytic stroke. At his bedside were his wife, Elizabeth L. Wright, and their adopted niece, Miss Alice Smith, of Stockbridge. Mass
J. H. H. H.
Private funeral services were held from his late home Saturday evening, September 20, with Dr. H. H. Prostor of Nazarene, Congregational Church, Brooklyn, in charge. Mrs. Stephen A Brooks sang "Abide With Me." The house was crowded with friends of the late Mr Wright and Mrs Wright. The floral tributes filled two rooms. Church services were held from St. David's Chapel, in East 157th street, Sunday, September 21, Dr. E G. Clifton officiating Interment was at Woodlawn Cemetery.
Mr. Wright was born in Jamaica, I. J., in 1849, the son of Thomas and Martha Wright. He was educated in the public schools of Jamaica. When still a boy, he went to Port Chester. N. Y., where he secured work with the family of Mr. E. L. Davidson. He remained in that position for 19 years, leaving to take a better one at Morris Park, which he retained for eighteen years. From Morris Park, he went to the Bankers' Trust Company of New York City, where he served faithfully for twenty years.
On March 27, 1879, Mr Wright married Miss Elizabeth L. Jackson of New York City, who survives him. Forty five years ago he joined the Masonic fraternity and was up to the time of his death, a member of St John's Lodge. No. 29. F & A M. He was also a member of the Royal Arch Masons Rising Sun Chapter, having risen to the high position of Most Excellent Grand High Priest of the Jurisdiction of New York and Connecticut In the Knights Templar he was exalted to the post of Right Eminent Grand Master of the Jurisdiction of New York and Connecticut At the time of his death, Mr Wright was a Noble in good standing of the Ancient Egyptian Arabic Order of the Mystic Shrine, and a Sovereign Inspector General (M) of the Ancient Accepted Scottish Rite of Free Masonry King David's Consistory, and active in the Supreme Council of the Northern Jurisdiction and Canada For a number of years he was Right Worthy Grand Treasurer of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of the State of New York.
At the request of Mr. Wright, there were no Masterson services held either at the house or at the church. Mr. Wright was confirmed to his bed only thirteen days, although he had been in failing health for several months. He was considered the finest
milestone of progress in the history of race relations—the first cruise with equal treatment for all citizens of good repute. You will be proud as long as you live to have had a part in this great event which opens another door of equal rights.

National Baptists Hear Dr. G. E. Haynes Tell Of Interracial Cooperation
Nashville, Tenn.-Speaking Here before, the National Baptist Convention, Inc. Dr George E Hawnes secretary of the Commission on the Church and Race Relations Federal Council of churches, said in part, "The practice of the principles of Christian brotherhood between the races comes as a special challenge to the churches. The Federal Council from the time of its organization has recognized the force of this challenge and Negro churchmen have had a share in its organization and work of evangelism, of social service and of other phases of applied brotherhood. Specially was the work of the Commission on the Church and Race Relations appealed to the churches.
"During the past three years, the campaign to areas the churches against the lynching evil has been one of several important forces in reducing the number of such attrocities last year to 28 the lowest in the records of evils and during the first six months of 1924 there were only five cases recorded. There are other evils which have long challenged the Christianity we profess which the organized forces of the Church must also attack and abolish. The Christian conscience of the land will no longer tolerate these evils when the Church attacks them with conviction and power."
The speaker described interracial conference which have been held in northern and southern cities with the assistance of under the auspices of the Race Relations Commission of the Federal Council and the interracial committees that have been started by this means in such Northern cities as Toledo Ohio Wichita Kan and Chicago.

_ A LILYWHITE VIEW OF IT. ]
ae SE AVES OF last week we publisned §
letter sent by three representative -colores
Republicans to the: ehairman of tha Nort}
Carolina Republican State Committee, ,t
which no answer had ‘been vouchsafed, no!
‘was it likely to be. In this letter Chalemay
Bramham was anked if it would be “agree
able for the Republican State Comaittes
to meet & committee of colored Republican
fer the purpose of bringing out every pos
sible Republican vote in the coming elec:
tion," :
In default of any reply to this letter from
the Republican chairman, the Greensboro
Daily News, a purely Democratic organ,
undertook to set forth the reasons why the
communication remained ynanswered. 11
styled the letter as an intrusion and con-
tended that the writers pf it knew that the
State Republican organization would make
ne bid for the Negro vote, which it styled
as a “millstone about ite neck,” It set forth
the ajtuation from the Lilywhite standpoint
in the following brutal manner:
The Republicans need_a white party and donot
needa bate party “They ted the “second “at
thete 40 years and have wandered m a wilder.
fess ever since. If Charles H. Maore and SH.
Vick ever got anything {rom their politics but a
Neaacy of averlatting race rancor and hatred,
temporary tenure of a Wilson postofiice and the
kiling of 4 lot of blacks by redshirts. we reca}i
none of it now
After this candid exposition of the Lilye
white position. as expounded by a Deme
neratic advocate, we are not surprised to fing
the editor of the News telling these colored
Republicans that if they wish to vote the
Republican ticket, all that they have to do
is to go to the polls and vote. It declared
derisiwely that they have been doing this
inany years and doybtless know that noth-
ing is easier, “even when Demoerftie regis
ters record the electors’ names an the books!
and set up a regime that means death to
mental weaklings * That 1s, we suppose, «f
the “‘menta] weaklings” betray the fact by
their complexion
This remarkable editorial closed hs say-
ing that if there was any single sentiment
en which “we thaught all North Carolina’
iS agreed, it 1s that no man can do the Negro
sny kindness by dragging him to the polls.”
But enough has been quoted to show that
the Lilywhste Republicans and the Redshyrt,
Democrats agree in their determination to
seep the Negroes of North Carolina from
oting or exercising any infience at all in:
iolitics. They agree in the policy of keeping
he race defenceless against injustice of all
sinds by depriving it of the ballot
As Mr. Moore said im his letter to The}
Age last week, the managers of the Repubhi-
an mFganization. seemingly, have determined
o ignore absolutely the rights of from 50,
00 te 75,000 colored Repubbeans who could

It is no wonder that a Demoeratic paper],

Saturday, September 27, 1924 Church Acti In Greater New
Church Activities In Greater New York
The 11th verse of the 21th chapter of St. Matthew was the portion of the Bible that afforded the theme for the morning session. After explaining the symbolic significance of the principal characters, of the parable, of the unhidden guest at the marriage feast, the pastor went on to stress the unlon that Christ desires between Himself and his fellow angel, to argue that in keeping with the thoughest parable we put on the wedding garment, as no excuse will be accepted when Christ has made it so easily done.
A special service was held at the Lyceum hour. The Ladies' Aid Society arranged a pew rally and raised quite a sum. The Rev. R. G. Waters of Orange was to have preached, but because of illness was prevented and Rev. Joseph Philips served in his stead. W. Woods, a gospel singer, rendered some touching selections.
At the Epworth League the junior choir took charge of the topic discussion and also presented a fine musical program. The children are being trained by Mrs. Jennie Meyers, their new superintendent, and are making fine progress.
Rudolph Grant, choirmaster left suddenly for his home in Jacksonville, Fla., to attend the funeral of his brother. Interest is manifested in the services and entertainments marking the last two weeks of abode in the present building. All are waiting with keen concern the approach of the first Sunday in October which will mark the triumphant entry into the new edifice.
The congregations at St James Presbyterian Church were large and enthusiastic all day last Sunday One new member joined the church at the close of the morning sermon The Sunday school, Christian Endeavor and Brotherhood all held interesting services. The usual interest in the hall program is evident throughout the church Dr. Hyder occupied the pulpit at both services preaching at 11 o'clock from 1st Timothy, 16th verse; there "The mysterious element in religion."
A beautiful wedding was solemnized at the manne Saturday evening at 8 o'clock, the contracting parties were Miss Essie Jones and William Toatley

It would have been well if every Christian man and woman and those who are trying to find Christ could have listened to theuspring message delivered by Re: E. E Tyler the pastor at the morning service. He clearly outlined the effect of conversion on one's mode of life. It makes a complete change in our temperament and daily habits. A truly conceived Christian is radiant of face, scale of foot liberal in mind and possessing enlarged sympathies. When the world has learned the doctrines of true Christianity and the necessity of applying them in their national development the kingdoms of this world shall become the Kingdom of Heaven and its Christ
Forty seven persons were received into full membership at the morning service. Just forty seven more souls added to Christ's vineyard to do their duty in the Church Militant until they are called to the Church. Trumpet which is without fault before the death of God.

The Rev. G. M. Oliver, pastor delivered an inspiring and helpful message to his people, last Sunday morning, directed primarily to the Christians. The text is found in St. John 717. If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God or the speech of God or Oliver's subject "Experimental Christianity." The death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ were very important features in the affairs of our Saviour. As a monument to the experimental Christians, we have the church. There is a vast difference between religion and Christianity. Any man might have religion, but he would not necessarily be a Christian. Man's possession of the Christian religion is often tainted and if he is a true follower of Christ, he will be able to stand the examination. To live an exemplary Christian life is to be an experimental Christian. We must times stand to the same test as the true test for evil, visit the slick, lend to the poor-provining that Christ is in us and we in Him. So that in the end, we like Christ, will leave a monument for our experimental Christianity.
At 8 o'clock Rev. F. H. Butler, of Chicago, assistant secretary of the Epworth League, M. E. Church preached from the 19th Psalm, 14th verse, "Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in thy sight, O. Lord, my strength and my Redeemer."
Next Sunday is Woman's Day. Special program is being arranged for the entire day. The women of the museum show their colors. Albert Pressley, tenor, rendered in pleasing manner, "Outside the Heavenly Gates." Mr. Pressley is leader of the tenor section of the choir.

Kingdom and live with Him happily forever. The blessed of the Holy Spirit dwelling in us makes the incarnate God a reality. In us. Hence the grass will wither, the flowers will fall, but God with and in us, makes us with Him, live forever.
At 2 p. m., the Sunday school was opened by the superintendent, Rev. William H. Hogans; At the close of the lesson study, Rev. Hogans aoke a few words about two deceased teachers and workers in the church and Sunday school, Mrs. Medora E. Bolden and Mrs. Sarah C. Jackson.

Newman Mem. Church.
The two weeks' revival being conducted by Mrs. James, the evangelist, is ending this week. It has been successful and beneficial. Mrs. James has preached splendid sermons. At the service on Sunday night, one united with the church.
The Sunday morning, the pastor, Rev Thomas W. Cooper, preached, taking as his text Isaiah 54:17, the subject being "Preservation of the Church."
At 1 o'clock, Sunday school was well attended, and one new scholar joined. The school is rehearsing for tally day service on September 28 under direction of John H. Williams. At 3 p. m., the Rev. J. H. McMullen, pastor of Ralph Avenue A. M. E. Zion Church preached a special mon for the Red Army for the Ralph Avenue Church and a number of the members were present. The Rev. D cummings, with members of his congregaiton at St. John's A. M. E. Church, Howard avenue, also worelifted with the Reds. Epworth League was in session at 7 p. m. under Mrs Carrie Harrison, president Mrs. Lula Hodge was at the organ doing the day.
Fleet St. Church; Brooklyn
The congregation at Fleet Street Church was undoubtedly led to an understanding of the new meaning of "Service", and helped to believe that one prospers best and longest who is concerned as to the welfare of the people, as with dynamic force. Rev. Brown presented his iteme, "Salvaging Humanity". There is no wonder, when a large number of persons declared themselves at the altar, who had previously believed themselves secure in a one time confession and profession, but found in the presentation of the sermon that they were not giving their best to the serving of humanity. At 3 p.m. holy communion was administered. Rev. H. W. Morrison, pastor of the Cosmopolitan Zionist Church, took the speaker. His visit, from Paul's letter to the Galatians 3.3, furnished a spiritual treat to an appreciative audience.
At 7:45 The Pharisee and the Publican" was the theme presented by the pastor Special music was rendered during the day. The choir from Kosmopolitan Church rendered very excellent service during the communion. Among the out of town visitors during the day, were Dr. L. G. Mason, presiding elder, Mrs. J. E. C. Boyd and friends of Mount Vernon, N. Y., Mrs Brooks of Washington, D. C, and Mr Hathway of Mother Zoon Church. Manhattan The Sunday school was the recipient of the guest of the church. Sixteen persons joined the school. Tuesday evening the first quarterly conference for the church year was held. Notable progress was evidenced throughout the various reports. A class leader's rally is on Every class leader and their members are happy as they look forward with anticipations for the final results.
Missionary Day* will be observed Sunday, September 28. A special program has been arranged for 3 oclock p. in, at which time the Rev C. P. Matthews, his church chair and ushers, will serve the Missionary forces at Fleet Street
A phase of the church and its duty has received impetus, perhaps merited, in that the aged members are receiving consideration that was herefore overlooked in the onward rush of things material. Members that are not able through illness or age to attend the communion service are brought to the church in automobiles and cared for and returned to their homes and places of abode in season. The pastor and board of stewards have worked this cut to the satisfaction of the church, and it is regarded by those benefited as a very happy fulfillment of the duty of the church towards their helpless members
Miss Marian T. Hooks and Mrs M A Moore were the members from the Fleet Street Sunday school that attended the Regional Religious Education. Sunday school Convention held in Philadelphia last week.

First Emmanuel Church.
At the eleven o'clock services as the church Sunday, Pastor Bolden preached from the following text: "The grass witheth the flower sedeth; but the word of our God shall stand for ever." Isaiah 40:8. Pastor Bolden said: The idea of the word of God standing forever was put in contrast by the prophet with withering grass and fading flower. The prophet, was intending to visualize the thought of change and decay in nature, and the fact that this permanent action changed God; the Word, is Eternal. In the natural world we behold the seasons come and go, and the hills and valleys show effects of the changing order. So it is, in the world of humanity. Society with its various groups and organizations, as well as the individual, show the effects, time and seasons. By social disintegration by migration and death, the personnel of institutions, social groups, and communities, show the effects of the word of God, that element of divinity beneath and running through the mind of man expressing itself for good in his visible world, stands forever.
The gratey impulses and thoughts of individuals, luxurious and rich as they may appear; as well as the finest fragrant thoughtful ideas of the intellect, each and all withereth and fadeth, but the Word of God, that is embodied in our Lord Jesus the Emmanuel, standeth and declares that the word is our Creator, personal Lord and Saviour, for he says: "In the beginning was the word, and the word was with God and the word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by Him; and without Him was not anything made that was made. In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. And the light thineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended not." The light of loving person, this eternal life given, is shining to-day in the darkness of ignorance and superstition, of selfishness and hate, of black egotism, inviting through His apostles and through His disciples and believers, people to believe in Him, enter His

THE material contrast between the structures with which he (Booker T. Washington) began and the present great, simple and commensurable plant is surprisingly being the same. It is but an imperfect measure of Washington's work and achievement. The equation and annual burning out of some hundred thousand plants will determine the existence and families of so many commodities and natural wonders but that was only one part of what he did and sought to do. His purpose was to reduce the burden of real diseases for his life, but ever living trunk which must form the basis of real diseases for his life any race—WILLIAM HOWARD TAFT, Chief Justice United States supreme Court.

Nazareth Cong. Church.
In his service on Tuesday the world night side up. De H. H. Proctor paid tribute to the power of the pen of Lincoln on the eve of the Gend, anniversary of the issuance of the Emancipation Proclamation, September 22, 1863. He was traced on storming the gates of Hell, in which he held that the church should attack, the powers of evil rather than resist merely. He made a plea for clemency for Louis Thompson, the 19-year old colored girl, sentenced to the death chair by Governor Pinchot of Pennsylvania.
This plea was eloquently reinforced by Congressman Emanuel Cellar who was present. The whole audience endorsed a letter addressed to the Governor of Pennsylvania prepared by a committee of which James Williams was chairman.
Among the visitors present during the day were F. F. F. Gowen, F. F. F. Gowen, Brooklyn; Miss Amnerstine Wattking, Clerkburg, W. Va.; Miss Mary King, hattanooga, Tenn.; oCongressman Cellar.
S. J. Mayfield, social worker, reported his visit South at the morning service Sunday; in addition to his visit at Chattanooga, he visited his old home near Atlanta.

Dr. Proctor preached Friday evening at the Mt. Calvary Independent Church on "The Foundation, Function and Future of the Christian Church." The Pastor will fill his pulpit at both services Sunday, speaking at the morning hour on "The Genius of Christianity," and at the evening time on "The Cross and the Crown."
Bethany Baptist Church
The members and friends of Bethany Baptist Church turned out in large numbers last Sunday to greet the pastor, Rev. Kimball L. Warren, on his return from his vacation. He brought to us a burdring message Sunday morning, which he delivered in such a forcible and impressive way that all who were present must have been touched, for the Holy Spirit moved among the congregation with such awake until men and women were forced to respond. The theme for the morning sermon was recorded in the 5th chapter of John.
For the evening program, Dr. Warren gave us a general report of his vacation, the principal feature of which was a report from the National Baptist Convention which he attended at Nashville, Tenn.
Bethany is still on the upward march, and the united forces are harmoniously working to make this, in all respects, the crowning of all previous years.

Banner, chairman of the board. At this meeting the chairman was announced that the Matthewquan Will real estate company (white) had given to the board of directors a block of property, containing four and one-half acres on East Washington street, valued at over $20,000 for the hospital site. During the meeting, it was also announced, that other, white friends have come forward and ledered assistance of a very material character. It is the earnest hope of the board of directors, composed of some of our leading white and colored citizens, to make this institution one of the greatest in the city of Greensboro. The Greensboro Negro Hospital Association was formed a little over one year ago with Charles H. Moore as its president. The board of directors consist of six prominent white, and six prominent colored citizens, with Dr. C. W. Banner (white) chairman of the obard.

Business men, artists and educators are showing interest and co-operation with the program of the Aladdin Cruise which sails January 15 for tropical waters, according to developments within the last week.
At a conference in the Hotel Martique a few days ago business interests represented by the members of the National Association of Manufacturers received news of this inter-racial enterprise with enthusiasm. It was freely discussed, that the cruise would 'bring about' the opportunity for round table talks between both groups of business men with the idea that some national institute looking after the needs of the Negro business communities would be evolved.
At another conference, the cooperation of B. C. Whitney the theatrical man who is backing Styla & Lake was obtained and Mr. Whitney indicated his desire to be among the passengers. Capt. Schmid Abdullah international writer and author of the "Hour of Bigdad" has expressed a desire to go to His Royal Highness Prince of Dahome a graduate of the University of Paris, has through his secretary, appointed the New York office that he would like to be a passenger.

Institution at 38 W. 138rd St. Furnishes Moat Modern Facilities For Care Of Tots, Two to Six Years Old.
A new born king would not likely receive more tender care than the happy little youngsters that frolic and play at the Hope Day Nursery, 33 West 133rd street, New York City.
This institution for colored children was chartered by the State Board of Charities at the Capitol, Albany, N. Y.; October 11, 1911, and is now being conducted by Mrs. Odelia Jackson, a capable and suitable woman for the position of matron-in-charge.
In the basement of the building is the recreation room for three dozen or more children, furnished with small tables, chairs, playthings and folding wall beds, in which each child is strictly required to rest at least two hours each day, according to the law. A cemented back yard gives the children a safe place to play in the open air where it is dry and clean. Visitors are received in the drawing room on the first floor, at being fitted with a piano, book cases, drawing table, chairs and other furnishings, and decorations.
One flight up is the nursery proper. Miss Melena C. Lee is the head nurse with two assistants. On this floor is the rest rooms in which small iron beds are fitted with blankets, sheets and spreads that are kept sanitary, clean and neat. The ventilation is adequate and the interior is spotless white—soap and water being used freely.
"On the same floor is the toilet and wash room and one of the cutest little dining rooms ever dreamed of by a writer of fairy stories. A small table, not as high as a foot stool, accompanies little tots from two to six. They use individual dishes and the kitchen where the taste, wholesome food is prepared is so unique that it does not look like a kitchen at all.
On the top floor is the dormitory where the matron, the nurse and their assistants live and it has all the comforts of a model home. On the same floor is the Isolation Room. It is for children who show some signs of ill-
to adjust the dramatic affairs of Paul Robeson to have him go on the cruise representing the Negro in drama.
It is planned to have Miss Abbie Mitchell not only sing in the beautiful concert hall on the ship, but to arrange a recital for her in the Opera House at Havana. This is being done through the help and co-operation of the Cuban Consul.
Overtures are being made to the officials of the New York Public Library to establish a circulating library on board the steamship Mount Clay under the supervision of Miss Ernestine Rost of the West 135th Street Branch, including books on the history of the West Indies and South America.
Philanthropists have indicated their desire to give a travel scholarship to persons who are particularly worthy and who would be interested in recording the reactions of this interracial enterprise. William F. Homan of Brooklyn, a broker, has offered such a scholarship
ness, for they are confined in this room as sooth as the symptoms appear and the physician in charge, Dr. Leo Kirk Nearon, is immediately summoned: It has been customary for the clients to remember the Hope Day Nursery every Thanksgiving Day; also friends in and out of town bring in send donations at Christmastime, New Years and Easter. Among those who have supported the nursery. In the past may be mentioned Mrs Francis Cameron, Philip A Payton, D. H. West, Edmond Penfold and daughter, Mia Augusta, Polhemus, Miss Helen Emerson, and Attorney L. Hollinsworth, Wood. Some of the organizations that have contributed nice things are the School Girls' Club, Hearts and Flowers Guild, Knights Templars, Pastor's Aid Society, The Needle-Work Guild, Mate Kemp Dancink Dolls, The Walton Parent's Club and others.
Service is rendered dependent mothers who work out and their little ones are cared for.
A word of praise, as well as many thanks, is due to the loyal ones who have treated the children to toys, flowers, pop-corn, ice cream, candy, oranges, turkeys, Christmas trees, new and useful garments, musical entertainments, and many other things that gladden the hearts of childhood.
The entire building, which is devoted solely to the nursery is planned, arranged and conducted on an up-to-date basis. It is steam heated, sanitary, airy, roomy, cheery, electric lighted, with modern conveniences.
The officers, managers and advisory board are reputable men and women.
Mrs. Jackson the matron, herself being a mo ther, is a devoted lover of children. Her pleasant disposition, tenderness and kindness, has won the heart of every child, for she has made a sweet pet of each one of them

MEMORIAM
In sad and loving memory of our dear beloved brother, W. David Brown, who departed this life September 25, 1921.
His cheery smile and kindness are pleasant to recall.
He had a smile for everyone, and died beloved by all.
Atho' we cannot clasp your hand. Your face we cannot see;
But let this little token show. We still remember thee.
Oh' how we miss you. God only knows.
Your sisters
