The corner stone laying services on the site of the New Mother, Zion Church, 140-6 West 137th street across from the Y. W. C. A.. building, began about half past three o'clock in the afternoon, with the band playing "How Firm a Foundation." The pastor, Rev. J. W. Brown officiated and introduced Bishops J. Caldwell as the master of ceremonies. The services proceeded with a hymn by the congregation, a prayer, a scripture reading, an anthem by the Senior Choir followed by a statement of the Building Fund Committee read by its secretary, R. B. Henderson Liberal contributions At this point in the services many donations were received in sums of $10, $25 and $100, the architects being among the donors of the latter sum. A total of $4,005 was collected and $924 was raised through a stone contest conducted by members of the church. Col Arthur Little was introduced and made a few remarks. Ely Rosenberg. Republican candidate for State Senate was also introduced and gave a contribution. After addresses by Bishops Lee and Caldwell the corner, stone was laid by the Prince Hall Masons of New York State, grand master David W Parker, reading the Masonic rite. The new church, which was begun more than a year ago, is being built on a modern institutional plan by Miller-Reed Company of New York City. Lawlor and Haase, the architects, have designed a Gothic interior with steel trusses encused with oak which will resemble a wooden construction and yet be safe and substantial. The church will seat more than two thousand people and when completely fitted and ready for use the totals cost of the magnificent temple may reach the half million dollar mark.

SALEM CHURCH ENTERS INTO NEW BUILDING Last Sunday's Services Were In The Recently Acquired Calvary Edifice, 7th Ave., and 129th St. OPENING OF 60 DAYS CELEBRATION MARKED BY JOY and JUBILATION First Sermon Preached by Dr. Robinson, N. Y. City Society, Who Aided Salem In Getting New Home. What took place at New Salem Sunday was not only the celebration of a great event in church life but the according of signal honors to a distinguished character and religious leader, Dr Frederick A Cullen and the appropriate rewarding of the labours of his faithful congregation. This occasion was to both pastor and congregation the culmination of years of untrying efforts and signified to all the achievement of the hopes and aspirations of, a devout people. The entire day, the first of a series of sixty days of celebration was spent in jubilation. The sunrise prayer meeting opened the services of the day. Here a large crowd collected to honor their Great Benefactor ere the complexities of the day came on. It remained, however for the eleven clock service to draw forth such numbers of worshippers that the church was taxed way beyond seating capacity. The First Sermon The first sermon was delivered by Dr Maillard Robinson of the New York City Society. It was largely through the efforts of this gentleman that the present site was obtained and so Nelson was glad to hear its friend. STEALING RIDE ON AUTO, BOY KILLED William Young 12 years old at 301 West 134th street was knocked down and instantly killed by an automobile truck at 157th street and Edgecombe Avenue Friday afternoon October 3. Witnesses say that Young who had been color skating in the street, attempted to catch hold of the side of the truck and was thrown under the rear wheels. He was dead when Dr Berg arrived from Harlem Hospital. The driver of the truck owned by the National Trucking Co. of 52 East 70th street was arrested and taken to the Job Preemer station but was released after an examination.

SALOTAR, HARLEM'S BOLDEST OPERATOR BOASTS POLICE PULL Ignorees Law With Immunity, Saying He Has Bought Officers—Makes Hooch In New Jersey. Although his activites have been exposed, one of the most permanent and baffling hoooch- ing-operating in Hallowen is Charles Salder, who conducted a camouflage hooch joint at 448 Lenox avenue. This place, ostensibly a cigar store, was futher covered up by being operated in an other man's name. Althouth Federal Court Injunctions have been issued against places owned and operated by Salotar, it is reported that he has so shrewdly manipulated his activites as to not be person-low has had all the burden to bear. Several of his employees have had to go to jail, while a larger number have been arrest- BOASTS OF PULL Salotar openly boasts of his "pull" with prohibition enforcement officials, federal, state and city* He proves his immunity by the boldness of his operations and contemptuous ignoring of the law. It is stated that among his intimates he makes no secret of his alleged control of the offiary, and he is credited with making the claim that he has bought over all of the enforcement officers who are in position to make trouble for him. Members of the Police Department are included in his list of controlled officials, it is reported, and Salotar is holding himself as Harlem's bootlegging king Making Much Money. One thing appears to be certain and that is that the man is making money hand over fist. He is doing a land office business in the selling of his sale hooch conventions, and although he must be paying heavy tribute to officers of the law, he still has sufficient left to buy expensive high-powered cars. It is commonly reported that Salotar manufactures the hooch he sells at some place over in New Jersey, transporting it to this city for sale, and that he supplies many of the hooch points. In the face of Salotar's operations it is up to the Police Department and Federal enforcement officers to get busy and rehearse themselves of the odum (Continued on Third Page) REGISTER AT ONCE!

MILLER IS NOW BEING TRIED BY COURT AND JURY Killer of Barron Wilkins Last May Now Faces Trial For His Life In Special Session Court DIFFICULTY IN JURY PICKING IS FOUND BY ATTORNEYS IN CASE Only Seven Men, All White, Chosen After Two Days of Hard Work By Court And Lawyers. Monday and Tuesday of this week have given two hard day's work to Judge McIntyre of the Court of Special Sessions, and to the District Attorney. On those days they were busy picking a jury to try Julius Miller for a double murder. Miller, who is known in Harlem as "Yellow Charleston," because of his taste for tan shoes, shot and killed John Parker in a street on the night of May 24. He fled from the scene and coming upon Barron D Wilkins standing in front of his cabaret, corner Seventh avenue and 134th street. "Yellow Charleston" asked Wilkins for some money on which to escape. Upon being refused, "Yellow Charleston" alleges he shot Wilkins while in a frenzy. Seven Jurors Picked. Five jurors were picked Monday and two more were added Tuesday. Among those examined were manufacturers, shop keepers, engineers, insurance men and citizens of other vocations. They came from Ft. Washington avenue, Broadway, West End avenue, Twenty-third street, One hundred and Third street and other parts of the city. Some of the questions asked those examined were. Did you ever hear of Baron Wilkins before you read the newspaper account of the shooting? Do you know any prominent colored men? Did you ever have any trouble with any colored people? Do you think the life of a colored man is as precious as the life of a white man? Some of the jurors summoned were excused because they had already formed an opinion of the case. One felt prejudiced to color, another had an unfavorable impression of the business of the deceased, while still others were opposed to capital punishment. Tuesday morning's session closed with only seven white men having been selected for jury duty, with Isaac N Gilbert, 884 West End avenue as foreman The court adjourned until Thursday morning. 124th ST.

WOMAN IN CHARGE QUESTIONED COLORED GIRLS AS TO WHY THEY DID NOT LIMIT THEIR PATRONAGE TO 137th STREET BRANCH Another Case Of Colored Girl Barred From Normal Training School for Teachers of Recreational Activities Indicates Deliberate Policy of Discrimination on Part of Those Running the "Y" City Board. Whatever may be the actual policy of the City Board of the Young Women's Christian Association as to the operation of those activities which have direct connection with the public, it is courting unpleasant notoriety and possible civil rights law actions if such subordinate individual officials as the cafeteria director of the Harlem Branch, 74 West 124th street, are permitted their own sweet way in discriminating against casual colored clients who may chance through/necessity or convenience to seek service in that food emporium. DANCEY OUT AGAIN AND AT OLD TRICKS; GIRLS ARE WARNED Charles Dancey, the notorious police stool pigeon, who has been in jail for several years since the fault of $5,000 bail on a charge of grand larceny, who assigned on Monday morning on an indictment which had previously been handed down by the grand jury on four counts for assault, robbery, grand larceny and criminally receiving, on charges preferred by Mrs. Christine Laurey of 151 West 140th street, and pleaded not guilty. Dancey was under $1,500 bonds in this case and this had been furnished by John McGraw, keeper of a pool room on Lenox avenue, near 132nd street. This bail was continued. In the grand larceny case, in which he had been jailed in default of the $5,000 bail, he was accused by S. Lindo of 206 West 140th street of stealing, taking $362 from the pocket of a coat which was laying on a couch in a room in Lindo's apartment when Dancey accompanied police officers on an alleged search for evidence of policy playing. In this case, when called for a hearing, the presiding judge ordered a postponement of the case to October 14, and granted a reduction of bail to $1,000. John McGraw was the bondsman again and furshed security for Dancey's appearance, and the notorious stool pigeon is again free to pursue his nefarious and obnoxious schemes for the framing up of unsuspecting women and girls.

It is reported on good authority that two of the young colored women connected with the West 135th street branch of the New York Public Library, who chanced to find themselves in the neighborhood of the Harlem Branch Y. W. C. A. cafeteria at lunch time and went in there for service, were subjected to a discourse that was most embarrassing. They were served, it is true, but as they were leaving there, it has it that they were approached by the woman cafeteria director, who inquired, in tones that recked with contemptuous and meaness, if they did not know that their is a colored cafeteria on 137th street, and if MARTIN C. AMSORGE Our Candidate for Judge of the Court of General Sessions. You will make no mistake in supporting him. so, why they did not go there to eat. The director, at that time, was said to be a Mrs. Keats. There have been two other since, it is said. Inquiry among workers connected with the Y. W. C. A., brings the information that this action on part of the cafeteria director in question probably represented her individual point of view, rather than the policy of the City Board. But this generous and liberal view is not borne out by the utterances, spoken and written, of some of the higher-ups in the Y. W. C. A. work. Assistants Lunch Together. In the case of the library workers, it frequently happens that white and colored assistants go out to lunch together, and it is not unusual for them to patronize the West 137th street branch Y. W. C. A cafeteria, and there has never been a lack in any particular of the courtesy which patrons of that place are accustomed to. The visits to the Harlem Branch were made under similar circumstances, the young ladies going to that place because it was convenient for them at the time. The matter of their treatment in the 124th street "Y" cafeteria has been called to the attention of the executive secretary, Miss Myra Vance, and the branch chairman, Mrs. Ray Clark Tillingham but from all accounts little has been accomplished by this method of procedure. Misa Rose, librarian in charge of the West 135th street branch of the New York Library, sought an explanation of the treatment recorded her assistants, making a personal call upon the Harlem Branch officials; and finally taking the matter up by correspondence. Do Not "Cater" to Colored. The net result of Miss Rose's action in the matter is embodied in a letter written her by Mrs. Tillinghast chairman of the Harlem Branch board of management, carrying the positive information that while the Harlem Branch cafeteria does not care to serve members of the colored group, yet if they do come in, accompanied by whites, they will be taken care of. But even this carrier a suggestion that the white hostess should identify herself to the cafeteria director on entering to guard against discriminatory service. The actual letter to Miss Rose is not available for publication, but the paragraph in which the cafeteria policy is outlined is quoted by one who read he original as being about as follows: "We do not 'cater' to the colored group, but will serve them in the event of their coming in as guests of others. When you bring your friends, I wonder if you would be willing to ask for our cafeteria director, and she will see that you are well cared for in every way." Violating the Law. In commenting on the above statement, it was pointed out by one familiar with the provisions of the civil rights law in New York that the declaration, "We do not 'cater to the colored group' constitutes a direct and inexcessible violation of that law, and makes the City Board of the Y W. C. A. responsible for the discrimination on account of color practiced in the cafeteria of the Harlem Branch. Disclosures in this case direct attention to another recent case of color discrimination practiced by one of the New York City Y. W. C. A. branches. In this case, it was the Central Branch located at 610 Lexington avenue, at 53rd street, next door to the National Y. W. C. A. headquarters, and one of its affiliated activities, the School of Hygiene and Physical Education; operated in the same building. In this instance, a young colored woman from East Orange, N. J. Miss Lydia Gardine was refused admission to the school after her eligibility blank had been filled out and favorably passed upon. When the application blank and registration card were filled out and sent in, with the $10 registration fee required the director of the school wrote Miss Gardine follows: "I am extremely sorry to be obliged to tell you that we are, by terms of arrangement with Central Branch, not allowed to admit colored girls to the school" Only Y. W. C. A. School. As This is the only normal training school for teachers in recreational activities conducted by the Y. W. C. A., it is the only place offering such a course to the colored Y. W. C. A. girl. The matter contained in the letter received by Miss Gardine is declared by legal authorities to be another direct violation of the state's civil rights law. Subordinate officers of the Y. W. C. A. connected with other branches are reported to be making an effort to get in touch with members of the City Board and have them take up this matter at its next meeting and make such regulations as may be found necessary to eliminate this impleasant attitude of color discrimination. And there is also a well-defined fear that unless something of this sort is quickly done the City Y W. C A. will find itself facing costly and disagreeable court suits for violation of the civil rights law. Later information received indicates that the cafeteria director or now in charge at the Harlem Branch is pursuing a different policy, but with the same discriminatory end in view. Col- served patrons of the eating room are served by the girls without question, but the portions given them of the various foods are said to be measurably smaller than the quantity served other patrons. The girls working behind the serving counter have never been charged with showing prejudice and it is said they have always been pleasant to the colored girls dropping in. But recently, with colored patrons they exhibit signs of perturbation and nervousness and from their attitude indicate that they are acting under orders from superior officials to stunt the service given the patrons who are not wanted Extortion Practiced By Holders Of Mortgages On Property In Harlem District Large Sums Demanded For Renewal of Mortgages When Original Period Expires; or Obligation Is Transferred To New Holder In Conspiracy With Old, Who Also Demands High Payment For Accommodation.

OCCUPIED BY WHITES, BUT NEW OWNERS WILL PUT COLORED TENANTS New Owners Have Formed the "660 St. Nicholas Ave. Corporation, Inc.-Sketches of the Agents. One of the recent noteworthy realty transactions in Harlem was the taking over of the 6-story apartment building, housing thirty families, at 660 St. Nicholas avenue, by the "660 St. Nicholas Ave. Corporation, Inc." The deal was handled by the real estate firm of Anderson & Saunders of 412 Lenox avenue. The transaction ran well above the 100,000 mark, Anderson & Saunders negotiating the sale from Meyer Fliegel for two of their clients, and the same firm will have sole and complete charge of rental of the property for the newly organized corporation. It is a new law apartment, in splendid condition, offering prospective tenants the unusual opportunity of securing small-sized suites at a reasonable rental. The apartments are of three, four and five rooms, containing all improvements. For Colored Tenants This apartment house is being opened to colored tenants for the first time, the present occupants being white. In announcing the transaction, Mr. Saunders makes the declaration that his firm's policy will be to keep the building in A-No 1 condition, and to assure the tenants of a square deal at all times. The oppressive bonus system is to be eliminated, the suites being leased on a Extortion Practice Holders Of More Property In H Large Sums Demanded For Ree Original Period Expires; or To New Holder In Conspl Demands High Payment F Financial pitfalls and traps those who would become owner Harlem, or who seek to invest property with a view to obtain return on the investment. What may be a new scheme but which is more generally practiced than is suspected, has been uncovered through the revelation that holders of mortgages frequently refuse to renew the obligation at expiration of its original period, thus forcing a foreclosure, which can only be averted through the transferring of the mortgage to new mortgagors on the payment of an exorbitant fee for the new instrument A Faavorite Scheme. Many of the holders of first and second mortgages on Jamaican property are said to be Jewish investors. And it is explained that a favorite scheme among them is for the one holding the mortgage to refuse renewal while his associate nearly always a relative, will be ready to offer to take it over upon the payment of a fee that represents from 20 to 50 per cent of the amount involved. Of course of the mortgagee can pay off the obligation when it is due, the scheme is dead. But seldom does it happen that this 1. straight rental basis, and every effort will be made to secure only high-class and desirable tenants As an example of the improvement of rental properties of which they have charge, Anderson & Saunders point to the apartment building at 203 West 131st street, which came under their management last November. At that time the house was in wretched condition but it has been so improved and conditioned that now it is pointed out as one of the best kept and cleanest residential properties in Harlem, and tenants are always waiting for a chance to secure rooms in that building. It is pointed out by the agents that the opening of this building will afford an opportunity to the seeker after small apartments, and they declare also that it will help to solve the living problem for many now occupying furnished rooms at the high rentals which must be paid for desirable quarters. These tenants can take a small apartment at the same or less rental than they are paying for furnished rooms and make a comfortable home for themselves, and at the same time help to reduce the congested condition now obtaining in various quarters. Firm Organized In 1922. Firm Organized in 1922. The firm of Anderson & Saunders. engaged in the real estate business only since 1922, has made rapid strides. The senior member of the firm, Alexander T. Anderson, is the pioneer Negro furniture dealer in New York City, having been engaged in that business since 1906. His present store is located at 412 Lenoxav enne, in the same building occupied by the realty firm, and he has built up a thriving and prosperous concern, doing both cash and credit business. He is married, his wife having been Miss Anna L. Minor of near Staunton, Va., and Mrs Anderson is conducting a large and successful hair dressing parlor at 2157 Seventh avenue Mr Anderson is a native of Philadelphia. John D.

It usually means that to protect his equity in the property, the mortgagee must agree to whatever terms the new mortgager proposes. Must Pay Bonus In some cases, the holder of the mortgage does not even pretend to pass it over to some one else, he simply states that he will not renew the mortgage unless paid a substantial bonus. It is given as an authoritative statement that the Jewish mortgage holders charge at the rate of $300 for a mortgage of $1,500 to $2,000, $500 for a $2,500 mortgage, and as much as $1,500 for $3,000 mortgage. It should be stated, however, in all fairness that the Jewish mortgage holders are not enjoying a monopoly of these extortionate rates, even though the practice might have originated with them. Others are taking advantage of the situation, and it is said that even some of the Negro realtors are not above squeezing the last drop from their race brethren and sisters when it comes to the matter of extending or transferring a mortgage' obligation of members of a wealthy family, and under their patrols, he was given a splendid education at northern institutions of learning. Prior to entering the real estate field, Mr. Saunders served with effectiveness as a field secretary of the Jong Brothers' Movement, and as executive secretary of the Boys' Welfare Association which was opened at 4-6 West 131st street. In these positions he displayed, great, executive ability. It was largely through his efforts that the 131st street building was secured as a club home for boys. Mr. Saunders is active in the field work of the company, most of his energies being exerted outside of the office. The building up of th large clientele and the rapid expansion of the business may be attributed to his energy and initiative in this department. He is married, his wife being Mrs. Cedella Cabaniss Saunders executive secretary of the West 137th Street Branch of the W. W. C. A., a native of Charleston, S. C. At the time of her marriage to Mr. Saunders, she was the widow of the late Dr. James Cabanias, who in his lifetime was one of New York's most prominent dentists.

New York City with its unpassed educational facilities has no section which offers greater opportunity to all classes of citizens for education than History. In this section is located Columbia University, the lege of the City of New York, and many of the leading institutions of the public school system. One of the most interesting but least known, of these public schools is the vocational school for boys at 138th street and Fifth avenue. Although the school has been established since 1909, less than 25 percent of its 1,300 students are colored The school is intended for those boys who desire an education that will prepare them for a dustrial work as distinguished from office or professional work. Two years are required to complete any of the thirteen courses which are open free to boys who have completed the primary school and are of good moral character. The boys are taught academic subjects for half a day, and a trade for the other half. Among the trades taught are architectural drawing, automobile work, commercial designing, electric and industrial designing, electric wiring and installation, forging and blacksmithing, mechanical drawing, machine shop practice, modeling in clay, master and wax pattern making and squidify practice, plumbing and gas fitting printing, including linotype operating, composition and bookbinding, sheet metal work and woodwork including carpentry, cabinet making, and the use of wood-milling machinery. Upon completion of a course a job as secured for the student through its placement department. Or if he cares to go on he may enter upon an engineering course in some college with a decided advantage over his fellow students who have had no previous experience. Most of the colored students of the school go in for the automobile operating and repairing course or the electric wiring and installation course. The strenuous season calls Charles J. Pickett, pointed out a representative of The Age that while this school is not for any paricular race or class of people it should be more largely atten- ed by boys from this locality. He will be glad to confer with par- ents of boys who contemplate entering this school. REGISTER AT ONCE!

Are worth of any job? there are other cardinal questions to be Do the job pay an economic re- sult sufficient for the maintenance of the work. Do the work physically harmful to workers. Do the job furnish an opportunity for the intellectual growth of the work. For the reason that too few jobs two and the test of even two questions, dying the past one hundred years, workers found it necessary to band together into a business by their solidarity first a better economic, return, and second better working conditions. The history of organized labor has followed steep steps. Only recently having succeeded in some degree in engineering and better standards of pay, the unions have been consciously turning their attention to the second proposition. the third question, however, has so seen loft entirely to the judgment of the individual worker. His 'igno- tance has been his handcap. Almost untilwards he has failed to realize specificity for his own intellectual graph. Workers hawk however, be- tween almost blindly to demand, a relief from the drudgery of the repeated tax, but the argu not yet, cognizant the direction in which the impulse of them the 4e c of the Pillman posters has wished us usual lines.

He paid wage remains low, partly because of the stipency system and pain because there is no demand for a high degree of skill. Honesty, ra- ter than ability is required. The quotation for sterling integrity, which of Pillman parlor has, is all the more remarkable because of his race's quoted tradition of moral laxness. The dirt of the group is rein- forced by consciousness of racial pretence and a centitiveness to pre- Writing inductives to say the least are peculiar. The hours vary with the time. The work itself is not difficult, though especially in night runs, it is greatly concentrated. There is little time available on the trains and stations away from home. For most part the human contacts are the most useful to do whites. Except for the regular stealing and ammunition there is nothing unimportant about the work. The appointment of the service is reifiable to the number of men whose salaries on above that which is compulsory thought necessary in an occupation of this character. This has been brought about in part by the virtualual of society to admit Negroes to high grade intellectual emment. This well educated and ingenuous Negro finds that the desirable lete to go to the man of induction and intelligence pro white. On the other hand, he grade, occupations, which men captured" by Negroes are often sought by whites. The most resistance has been away from segregation especially in industrial trades, but the color and rigidity drawn with the effervescence educated. Negroes find it best for them to go "tremen" into Fullman, service "until men find something better." The immediate question is whether a condition is a source, for request for impulse, of course, is hard and better positions for the man in an attempt to get them. Pullman service.

In such a step can be made a career, it will mark an advance in advance of the writings more lasting and an era than what John Ruskin did. He attempted to educated men who had no reason at all except their own choices to labor all the good things a special emperor or the value of labor. However, they are not doubt about it, however, that all through the age of labor, labor has not been considered honorable. Those who have read the first hall of Veblen's book, The Theory of the Leisure Class, have received an amusing sidelight on this. Down from the earliest injustice, through the agility, to the modern speculator sometimes called captain in industry, species has been rewarded its honors on those who took things with Jesus labs. In other words all honor to the strong, Leisure has been the reward, and the leisure class has been the honour of games and sports had not all sorts of games and sports been invented to keep healthy, body and mind. Three games keep alive, inspire spirit and conquest. They enable the leisure class to keep occupied without including in the ordinary, supposedly dishonorable tasks and they allow a lot of money to be wasted in "consequences"迪拜邮, which is, another number of honor. Already the pendulum has begun, to swing the other way. Men, are getting to be more scrupulous, about living upon incomes which they do not earn. 'Rid men's sons make a great show of putting on overalls to start their careers and want it to be known that they themselves have the wits and society beginning to put a value on progress. Society is still hampered by old fashioned prejudices, and mistaken values. "What I ask is are 'colored social leaders' high enqnue to see the 'opportunity' for an advanced step in race preng- nence." In the "Pulman service the Negro, is in undisputed possession of one of the lower occupational groups. Does' there exist the leadership capable of insisting this group to get as a group for its' own intellectual capacity for will, discouraging work as first and it will not be evident at the start whither the leader lead, but, intellectual power will count and will in time produce its own salivation. There is every reason why the Nergos should take this's short cut to race progress rather than follow white leadership and intellectual power, and tie it attendant misunderstandings between the leisured intellectual and theigrant toilers. Through circumstances forced upon him, the Nergos himself in a position to make a bishopship of the white man. Let the intellectual "King" in Philman service not be denied his fate but awake to his opportunity. Let him help his brothers in the service. Let him beware of dilettanteism and a cheap venger of culture. Let him take the lead in thinking for his rate. Dr. J. Triscott Tucker. 35 years old. of 212 West 138th street, was struck by an automobile at 132nd street and Lenox avenue about 1:30 o'clock on Thursday night and died from his injuries early Friday morning at Harlem Hospital. Dr. Tucker, who was associated with Dr. J. T. W. Granady in the Female Clinic at Harlem Hospital, was one of the most promising young physicians in Harlem. He graduated from Howard University Medical School three or four years ago and had been practicing in New York for only two years. During this time he made a host of friends, who keenly feel the loss the community has suffered in his death. Funeral services were held from St. James Presbyterian Church, the Rev. F. M. Hyder officiating, on Monday evening, October 6, and the body was shipped to his former home in Bermuda on Tuesday. The local medical fraternity was well represented and the floral tributes were 'numerous and beautiful. The deceased was unmarried and lived with his sisters at the 136th street address. His brother from Bermuda was just completing a two weeks' vacation in New York. He had planned to sail home on Friday, but was compelled to enlist over and accompany the body of his brother on a latter The driver of the car, John L. Aventzell of 990 Tinton avenue, the Bronx, was not held by the police, the claim being made by him that Dr. Tueker stepped from the sidewalk in the middle of the block and was not watching where he was going.

Boston, Mass.—What might be taken as evidence of a defection of Negro voters from their well-established devotion to the Republican party was seen in the large attendance of men and women upon the meeting held recently at the Elk's Auditorium, when William H. Lewis, former Assistant, U. S. Attorney, Ferdinand Q. Morton, Civil Service Commissioner of New York City, and Mrs. Alice Dunbars Nelson of Wilmington, Del., spoke in favor of the Democratic candidate for President, John W. Davis. The half was filled to overflowing; at least three hundred being turned away, for lack of rooms Mrs. Nelson's appeal was directly to the women, the speaker asserting that they should support Davis because of his attitude on questions directly affecting women. Mr. Morton cited patronage extended the Negro Democrats in New York City as argument for division of the colored vote, and he was followed by Attorney Julian D. Rainey. The ovation of the evening was accorded Mr. Lewis, who was making his first public address since announcing his intention to support Davis. The outburst of applause lasted several minutes. The speaker then reviewed the accomplishments of the Republican party, during the past twenty years, giving particular attention to the last Administration. Lewis Makes His Choice. Declaring that the Negro voter has been tossed for fifty years upon a raging political ocean, with the Republican ship delaying his rescue, Mr. Lewis said the Democratic ship had radiod its willingness to take off the shipwrecked voters. Continuing, Mr. Lewis declared: "For me, I have made my choice. I am going to step aboard the good ship Democracy. If she brings me safe into the harbor-of political rights, there will dawn a new day for my race and country. If we do not make the port, we are, no worse off, and it is worth the chance. The step is not such a long one, or rash as one might think. You have voted for years in your local state elections for Democratic candidates, for mayor, even governor, with political and personal advantage. You are going to vote this year for David I. Walsh for Senator, and you are but doing your duty in return for his vote, for the confirmation of Cohen. The next logical step is to vote for Mr. Davis for President of the United States. You are to me, You of all men, have no right to leave the Republican ship. You have been the favorite passenger for years' Granted. And if I consulted my own selfish interests, if I thought of today only, and not of tomorrow and those who are to come after me, I could probably get more out of the Republican organization than any colored man in America. But what is the Republican party doing for the rest of you? What reason is there that you should stay? Colorad Voters' Pate "The action of the colored voter this year holds the fate of himself and his race for the coming years. I am prepared to accept criticism of the present day, as I am confident of the verdict of postivity. I stand before you upon my record of thirty years in your midst. "For fifty years we have been following slavily the Republican party for purely historical and hysterical reasons, upon the checkerboard of pellets, to be used, sacrificed, and laid aside, as the exigencies of the game required. Are we men or pawns? Citizens or slaves?" "We owe the Republican party nothing. We have long since paid our debt of gratitude. If not when what time, and in the course of how many years will it be we have paid our debt?" Was it for a change of matters that the Republican party freed us? Or was it that we might take on a place of citizens in the great American Republic with all the rights, duties and privileges of American citizenship. The ballot was given to us for our protection and we have the right and duty to vote in the general election into office, or out of office, just as the men or the parties serve our highest and best interests. The time has come for us to divide our votes like other men, so that which party is in power our race will have some representation Political History of Race "I look back over the history of the Negro in American politics. I am impressed in 1863 taftafried in 1868 the reconstruction period ended in 1870, then a few brief years of glor and triumph, and then the Republican party tweaked the Negro overhaul for the electoral vote, that put Hare in the White House. "Four years ago I was the spokesman of the colored people at a pilgrimage made to Marion, Ohio when I said to Mr. Harding, that of all the pilgrims who should come to his door during the campaign, our group has a more vital interest than any more to gain by his election and more to lose by his failure. I told him that while the others might complain of taxation and the war we had been eliminated from representation in the Federal government and aggregated in civil service. Mr. Harding was elected became President on the 4th of March, 1923 What happened? Immediately, representation of the colored men in the National Convention was cut down. A lily white movement was started in Virginia. Colonel Anderson ran for governor upon a lily white ticket. Mr. Stemp led the party. Colored men in Virginia who voted, the only thing that they could do, voted for the Democratic candidate for governor, who was overwhelmingly elected, and Anderson has never been heard of since The only answer to a lily white Republicanism, is a black Democrat. Harding and Coolidge President Harding made only one Presidential appointment in Washington,—the Recorder of Deeds. He reduced to appoint Charles Cottrill—the colored man closest to him, his most devoted and loyal friend, who now lies upon a bed of illness awaiting his last hour—Register of the Treasury, soled upon a protest based upon color. During the incumbency of President Herding, I pressed upon the Republican organization the claim of the colored voter for representation in the Federal government I recall talking with John T. Adams, chairman of the National Committee I pressured our claim based simply upon the meagre representation which we had herefore enjoyed. His answer was, "You boys look good to me. The President is thinking the matter over" In the Providence of God, Mr. Coolidge became President of the United States. I had the highest hopes that at last justice would be done to the colored voters. But up to now the plan, and policy of the late President Harding has been "faithfully carried out by President Coolidge. The first step in that direction was the appointment of C. Bascom Slemp as Secretary to the President. I protested against that appointment with all the power and strength that I had to Mr. Butler, and Mr. Stearns, a friend of the President, and to Speaker Gillette, now candidate for Senator. Mr Gillette stoutly defended the appointment Mr. Stearns said he had nothing to do with it. Mr Butler regretted the appointment, and said he would see what he could do in the matter which turned out to be nothing. Talked With Slemp Early in Mr. Cochidge's administration I called at the White House I saw Mr.-Slemp. I told him that I had viewed his appointment with alarm, not pointed to it with pride but since he was an accomplished task I would work with him as far as I could. I called upon the President to pay my respects. The President asked me if he could do anything for me said no. I wanted nothing. I would say no. I wanted the President to significant When I need you I will ring the bell" I know what the President meant I again called at the White House, pressed our claims informing the President that while under Taft and Roosevelt we had five Presidential appointments in Washington numerous, Presidential appointments, outside of Washington, including Minister to Haiti, that we had now simplified Presidential appointment in Washington. Not once but many times. I presented your claims, as citizen in the federal Republic because in the federal Republic parts, was then as it is now in power. My last stint to the White House was in April of the present year. Slemp's Friendly Gesture I laid to Mr. Slemp. The time he had you have done nothing. I laid to me. We have appointed a diplomatic commission to the Argentine island, a thing that has never been done before. I laid to Mr. Slemp. He has a sake and besides it is not a lie. President Tafi appointed a minister to Liberia sent them upon an American vessel and paid them well." He urged again that they intended to turn over the Veteran. Hospital at Tuskegee to the colored people I told him that the Veterans Hospital has no more political than any other hospital, that Senator Underwood of Alabama when the white people asked him to intercede to obtain control of our staff positions told them that they used a segregated hospital and they. He laid to me. Now am aware that a cadre of people may appreciate an entirely feature from the white people. I laid to Mr. Slemp. I am not looking for a figure. I am looking for what we are entitled to. Slemp Didn't Understand He said, "I come from a part of the country where a few Negro ministers and barbers vote, and I don't understand you." I said, "I understand you perfectly, but you can never get my point at now." I told him that they had the organization and they could get the nomination, but that when it came to the election it was on the matter. I pointed out what had been done to the colored people in Northern cities. Dr. Roberts And Attorney Billups Honored With A Dinner By Citizen's Club Dr. Charles H. Roberts, candidate for Congress, and Attorney Pope B. Hillings, candidate for the State Assembly. From the 21st district, were signally honored at a banquet on Thursday evening, October 2, given by the Citizens' Club of Harlem at Craig's dining room. A large number of distinguisher guests, turned out to play homage to the gentlemen of the church. Much oratory was engaged in, and it was 2 a.m. when the last speaker took his seat. Hamilton J Travis, manager of Dr. Roberts' campaign, was toastmaster, and called upon George F Wibecan of Brooklyn as the first speaker. The other speakers were. Ex-Congressman Martin C Ansorge, Judge Ely Rosenberg, Dr George E. Cannon of New Jersey, Dr R Moore, editor of The Age, Leader David B Costume of the 19th A. D., Associate Leader Charles W.

My Dear Mrs. Lampkin 'My heartiest thanks for your invitation to attend the dinner which the Citizens' Club is giving on Thursday evening. I regret that it is not possible to accept, but I do wish to add my commendation of the Club's purpose to insure that the fullest possible vote shall be cast at the coming election. There is no higher civic William Holland, M12 Lydia Mason and Otto, Bohanan Service followed upon service, each in itself a glorious testimony, yet all a part of an enthusiastic celebration of a jubilant people. The Epworth League followed immediately after the Lyceum. Here the adolescent voices took up the strains that had been reverberating all day and in their childlike simplicity they poured their hearts forth in songs of joy. Dr Wallace McMullen preached the closing sermon. This eminent dine prefaced his discourse by reminding Salem that she had inherited an institution of great tradition. A better approach of your own temple can be gotten by a faithful study of the Temple of Solomon, Solomon's Temple was catholic, and he went on to describe its repledent beauty. But this pale, into insignificance when compared with the beams of the human soul which Gods Temple was meant to guard against, not to let anything dwell in, always guarding against unclean thoughts and low ideals. As the Temple was God's house dedicated to His use we might ever be mindful that on entering this magnificent edifice we do so as God's guest This being communion Sunday with Salem it was indeed nitting that this moment occasion should be celebrated with the Holy Sacrament. Will all it was a strenuous day for Salem people and after the service was over and as they would their way to their several homes all feelings of fatigue was dispelled by the satisfaction or knowing God had once more wrought what they had not sought.

I said, "Yes, that just what they will do." And furthermore, I say, that unless something is done for the colored Republican voter by this administration they ought to." Upon the oth of August last, I made my last appeal to the President. And now the issue, is up to you. You are to decide whether the Republican Party owns you body and soul, or whether you are free men, thinking for yourselves, acting for yourselves, and for your children. The great migration during the last ten years to the North, East and West, have given you the balance of power in twenty American Commonwealths. What will you do with it? It is for you to say. I am opposing the Republican administration not only because of broken promises, and political cowardice. I am opposing it because of reversal of its whole attitude to hard people of color. You point me to the fine words of President Coolidge I tell you that fine words butter no paraphrms. What we need is more patronage, and less patronizing during the campaign season. I see no hope in Coolidge and Slemp I prefer to take my chance with Davis and Bryan. If the Democratate party should not be elected, and four years from now they shall not have made-good to the colored vote which put them into power I shall vote and work, God sparing my life to help me. You are looking backward - I mean you colored Republicans in gratitude to the party of Lincoln, but the party of Lincoln has long since passed away. The party of Slemp is here Both Lincoln and Slemp, could not belong to the same political fiddle. You have no right to sacrifice your children up on the altar of a dead past. Salem Church Enters Into New Building (Continued from First Page) and benfactor Dr Robinson said he had come to offer a slogan for this new effort of Salem Church and from the eighth verse of the fourteenth chapter of John he selected an appropriate text "Philip, a very practical man with whom seeing was believing, typified those who will come to you today," said this great churchman, "and then by the grace of God you can show them the healthy good.

SATURDAY, OCTOBER, 11, 1924. THE REPUBLICAN DEFAULT. The dissatisfaction prevalent among the Negro voters of the country, especially in the North and West, is due primarily to the default of the Republican administration in keeping faith with this class of voters. During the last presidential campaign, four years ago, Chairman Will H. Hays of the Republican National Committee specifically pledged the editor of The Age that he would give his earnest support in helping the Negro Republicans to regain the political status and recognition that they had been deprived of under eight years of Democratic misrule. This pledge was given in return for the loyal support of the Republican ticket of Harding and Coolidge, which was carried out to the letter on the part of The Age; and the voters whom it represented.

During the last presidential campaign, four years ago, Chairman Will Hays of the Republican National Committee specifically pledged the editor of The Age that he would give his earnest support in helping the Negro Republicans to regain the political status and recognizer that they had been deprived of under eight years of Democratic misrule. This pledge was given in return for the loyal support of the Republican ticket of Harding and Coolidge, which was carried out to the letter on the part of The Age; and the voters whom it represented. The failure of the party managers and the administration swept into office to fully carry out their parts of this agreement is part of recent political history. The early resignation of Chairman Hays and his vacating of the post that he held in President Harding's cabinet was a severe blow to the group of Negro voters, but this did not invalidate the pledges made nor release the party from its moral obligation to keep the faith. The subsequent failure of the administration to restore to the race the official recognition that it had justly earned and held before the advent of Wilsonism to power was a failure to keep these pledges, which has been bitterly resented. One evidence of this resentment was seen in the reluctant support, given with many reservations, at the conference called by Chairman Butler of the Negro editors of the East held in New York a few weeks ago. A few of these editors felt that they could not with any degree of self-respect allow their expense to be paid to a meeting called by the Republican chairman, until some assurance had been given them that the party was willing to do the right thing in making good its outstanding default. They therefore refused to attend the meeting. A similar meeting called in Chicago brought out an equally disastrous result, according to an account published in the Baltimore Afro-American.

It said Chicago, Ill., Oct. 1—(By Telegram)-J. E. Mitchell, editor of the St Louis Argus, largest paper in the Middlewest, argued for a condemnation of the Ku Klux Klan by President Coolidge for two hours at the Western Negro Newspaper Publishers' banquet called by Chairman Frank Butler and William Matthews. Ben. Davis, Atlanta Independent, and five other Southerners, voted against the West in a blanket endorsement of the Republican party, with one proviso, that segregation be abolished at Washington in the government departments but continued silent on Klan issue after the debate Joe Bibb, editor of the Whip and representative of California papers, wished from the meeting Geo. L. Knox, 80-year old dean of Negro publishers and owner of the Indianapolls' Freeman since 1880, that has led the fight in Indiana against the hooded order, refused for the first time in 40 years to attend a Republican newspaper rally.

ROOSEVELT AND PROHIBITION Efforts are being made by Senator Seymour Lowman the candidate for heutenant governor on the Republican ticket, to pro Efforts are being made Lowman the governor on the Rep Efforts are being made by Senator Seymour Lowman the candidate for heutenant governor on the Republican ticket, to prove that the candidate for governor is in favor of prohibition enforcement. Senator Lowman said: "If Thodore Roosevelt is elected Governor and we elect a Republican legislature, we will have another enforcement code, and citizens of New York will no longer have to hold their heads in shame as multificationists. We have Colonel Roosevelt's promise at Oyster Bay. But this is no new idea with him. Assemblyman Davison of Nassau county, from Colonel Roosevelt's district, voted against the repeal of the Mullan-Gage act. He was criticized for it. On June 8, 1923, Roosevelt in a letter to Davison said: "Dead Trubee--Since th the Mullan-Gage bill was repealed in the assembly quite a number of people from Nassay have spoken to me criticizing your vote. I thought, therefore, I would take this opportunity of telling you that I feel you did absolutely right in voting against the repeat." "That is the way he felt in 1923. He feels the same now." The Mullan-Gage act was repealed by the Legislature of New York for what appeared as the time to be good and sufficient reasons. It had not aided in the enforcement of prohibition and its existence on the statute books had only added to the demoralization incident to the adoption of a prohibition amendment, without popular sentiment behind it. The most effective measures taken in this State to enforce prohibition were through the medium of the United States Attorney's office under the administration of Col. Hayward. It was one in pursuance of the principle that all laws should be enforced until they are reealed or modified to suit the popular sentiment which must be behind all laws to take them effective. The Rochester plank which Senator Lowan quotes in favor "of the enforcement of the constitution and the laws" does not mean much, so long as it is only made to apply to the Eighteenth amendment and not to include the Fourteenth and Fifteenth amendments. Col. Roosevelt should not take the attempt to tie him up to the passage of another Mullan-Gage act too seriously. It might hamper him in his appeal to theaters of New York State. It will be sufficient if he will pledge himself to the enforcement of all laws now on the statute books.

HARLEM TRADE SCHOOL Attention is called to a news article in this week's issue relating to the vocational school for boys located at 138th street and 9th avenue. This school is intended to train boys for trades and is one of the many educational facilities provided under the public school system of New York to train youth for future usefulness. A striking it in connection with this institution is that despite its location in a thickly settled oared district, less than one-fourth of its 1000 students are colored. The failure of the parents and the youth the race to avail themselves of the advantages of such an institution as this to greater extent may be due to various uses. One reason that has been suggested is that the small number of such students is feeling that there was a lack of encouragement to secure their attendance. Even this was true, so long as no obstacles are put in the way of their entrance and training, they should have persevered in trying to fit themselves for industrial vocations, in which the rewards are greater this time than ever before. We are glad to be able to assure the parents and pupils of the race that under present principal the attendance of boys in this locality is welcomed. While many of the colored students in the past have been courses in automobile operating and wiring or electric wiring and installation, we are other courses that will repay their intention. Many other trades are taught, specified in the article referred to, and student desirous of acquiring practical can be assured of finding it. The work of the school does not end in the training of the student, but efforts made to fit him with a job through the cement department.

Not infrequently complaints are heard among the residents of Harlem of incivility and a lack of courtesy on the part of the trades people, with whom they do business. Sometimes the absence of politeness is manifested in curt and abrupt answers to necessary inquiries and an aggressive tone that forbids further inquiry. Then again the response may be flippaht or unpleasantly jocular so as to repel the serious minded customer. The only alternative in some cases is to go further and run the risk of faring as badly. Another side to the situation was presented by a tradesman who had occasion to visit an apartment house with supplies for one of the tenants. He was abruptly told by the youth running the elevator that he had no right to ride in the car and must carry his burden up the stairway. Doing so he told his troubles to the customer, who interviewed the superintendent of the building in his behalf, but without success as the latter unheld the refusal of the vator conductor, who happened to be her son. Naturally, this tradesman felt hurt at the treatment he had received, especially as he had tried to be courteous and accommodating to all his customers, regardless of color. It would not be unprecedented if his resentment would affect his manner toward future customers. Courtesy should be an article of reciprocity under a treaty of good feeling and consideration for others, on both sides of the counter. An elevator conductor should not insult a tradesman or mechanic because he happens to be white, nor should a tradesman or shopkeeper be rude and gruff to a woman customer because she is colored. Reciprocal courtesy on both sides will do more to preserve friendly relations and avert racial friction. A little consideration for the rights and feelings of others will do away with the curtitess of manner and gruffness of tone too often encountered. Trades people and those giving personal service should bear in mind the policy of the telephone corporation and cultivate "the voice with a smile." A CONFEDERATE MEMORIAL Considerable newspaper publicity has been given to the project undertaken by a well known New York sculptor, Gutzon Borglum, to construct a massive monument to the defunct Southern Confederacy by carving immense figures on Stone Mountain, near. Atlanta. A feature of the project which is not so well known to the public is that, at the last session of the United States Congress, a law was enacted to give substantial aid to this project to honor the men who tried to disarm the government Considerable newspaper publicity has been given to the project undertaken by well known New York sculptor, Gustave Borglum, to construct a massive monument to the defunct Southern Confederacy carving immense figures on Stone Mountain near, Atlanta. A feature of the project which is not so well known to the public is that, at the last session of the United States Congress, a law was enacted to give substantial aid to this project to honor a men who tried to disrupt the government. It is charged that this law was sneak through Congress, that is passed without roll call and without its full purport becoming known. It was approved by the President, although he was asked to veto it. The title of the bill reads: "An Act to authorize the coinage of 50 cent pieces in commemoration of the commencement on June 1, 1923, of the work of carving on Stone Mountain, in the State of Georgia, a moment to the valor of the soldiers of the South, which was the inspiration of the sons and daughters and grandsons as granddaughters in the Spanish America and World Wars, and in memory of Warren G. Harding, President of, the United States of America, in whose administration the work was begun." By the terms of this act, silver 50 cent pieces are to be coined to the number not more than five million and issued one to the executive committee of the Stone Mountain Confederate Monumental Association upon payment of the par value. The coins are to be sold at one dollar each and the profits go to pay for the memorial. More than this, the design to be placed on one side of the coin will be a "memorial to the Confederacy," containing figures of Jesse Davis, Robert E. Lee and Stonewall Jackson. The other side will have President Harding's figure on it. No wonder the Union veterans of the Grand Army of the Republic have started a movement to repeal the law before these coins are issued. No one could begrudge the descendants of the Confederates honoring their dead leaders, but to devise a scheme to make the government they sought to destroy finance the scheme, is little too much for the most tolerant Unionist. As the representative of an Illinois Post wrote to his Congressman, "The law insults Union veterans of the civil war." The whole thing illustrates the dominating force of Southern Democrats exercised over weakkneed Republicans, both in Congress and in executive office.

REGISTRATION WEEK This week is the time set apart for the personal registration of voters in the City of New York. If you have not already registered, you should do so without further delay as the books will close Saturday night. Those who have failed to register cannot vote. The places for registration are conveniently located in every district and the books are open every day this week from 5 to 10 30 P.M. and on Saturday from 7 A.M. A half hour or less time will serve to enter your name on the list, according to the number waiting in line. There is every reason why the colored voters of Harlem should register and vote in this election. Beyond the issues presented by the various national and State tickets the issue of direct representation in Congress has been brought forward by the nomination of one of their group as the regular Republican candidate in the twenty-first district. This nomination was made by the Republican leaders in response to the demand for recognition voiced by these voters. They must now back up their claim for representation by their votes. To fail to do this now would be political suicide, which would lose all the ground so ardouly gained. This week is the time set apart for the personal registration of voters in the City of New York.

All those entitled to a vote should use it to vindicate the Under the heading of "Policemen Who Break the Law," the Pittsburg American said: There must be an unwritten law in the Public Safety Department of Pittsburgh which sanctions the shooting of Negroes. It is a common occurrence for an officer to shoot a Colored man while making an arrest in the "hill district." As late as this week, patrolman Edward Fallon shot Cecil Fisher, a Colored man of "Bedford avenue. It was alleged by the officer that Fisher started to flee after he had been put under arrest. It was further alleged that Fisher carried a satched containing forty-seven bottles of moonshine whiskey. With this excessive luggage as a handicap the officer was unable to apprehend his prisoner without firing a shot which may prove fatal to the victim. After all has been said to the contrary, it must be conceded that the most congested center of the "hill district" known as Fullerton and Wythe avenues, has a reputation for peace and order. It is a rare occasion when a Negro is arrested for a crime greater than a misdemeanor. Most of the offenders are arrested for drunkenness, vagrancy, or petty larceny Resisting arrest constitutes the exception rather than the rule. The American suggested that the thousands of Negroes who vote in Pittsburgh demand that a Negro lieutenant be stationed in the hill district, as the white lieutenant protects only the officers. The suggestion seems worth trying. The Southern Register, published at Jackson. Miss, celebrated the coming of harvest time by enjoining its readers as follows: Rejoice with the farmer if he succeeds in making a few shillings this year. He has it coming. The bounty of natural resources spread before the farmers of Mississippi has so often been offset by economic evils as to render their best labors fruitless. If this season brought a better reward rejoicing is in order. One hundred thousand dollars are needed to complete the new publishing house of the National Baptist Convention at Nashville according to the National Baptist Voice. The twenty thousand pastors of the denomination are called upon to raise this amount, which would appear to be an easy task. In discussing the final decision of the school board in closing the colored normal school, the Lousville Leader said: Louisville is one of the four cities in the country that has maintained a city Normal for the training of colored The Defection of Lewis And Cobb and Its Effect. Editor of THE NEW YORK AGE I regret very much to learn from your valued paper that our good and erselfish strong Republican friends the Honorable William H Lewis and James A Cobb, have abandoned the old camp in which they have so long trained. It is greatly to be deplored that hereafter we shall be obliged to look for them in the field which by their great eloquence and logic they have so long advised all of us to turn our backs on and avoid. Doubtless we shall miss them but their sudden turn and recent reunification of the old faith will invest them with no power to benefit the new found cause and will strip them of all capacity to harm or damage the deserted camp. It is to be hoped that these gentlemen may yet see the error of their way and return to the fold from which they and all of us as a race have acquired all that has come to us from a state of serfdom to independence and citizenship But a reminiscence a look backward will cause some of us to ask why there should be surprise at this sudden change on the part of air friends. This is not their first flop. While a constituent part of his administration, while a recipient of his favors, while basking in the sunshine of his smiles both of them stealthily and many times openly opposed the fortunes of Mr Taft. So that having deserted once they find no difficulty in deserting again. This latter movement however shows that they are making progress in the art of flopping. In the first most tries did not get quite out of the parts but this time they have left, taking bag and baggage I wonder whether it would be out on place to ask these gentlemen this question. If you filled the places of Assistant Attorney General of the United States, and Recorder of Deeds of the District of Columbia and all other colored people occupied the same positions they do at present in that event, would you have changed your allegiance from Calvin Coolidge to John W. Davis? But after all these brothers will carry with them an aversion of only one half site each that not a great deal of harm will be done the Republican party, and little or no good will come to the Democratic party. With the hope that before this reaches the public face, I should reasease at all those gentlemen will have covered the error of their way and will have returned to the fold of those principle involved in the nomination of Dr. Roberts for Congress and Pope Billups for the State Assembly. These nominations embody the right to be votead for, as well as the right to vote. But the first step is to register before 10 o'clock Saturday night. The Age Editors ings of Other Editors teachers. It has an honorable and useful career for nearly thirty years. Eighty-five per cent of our city teachers now employed, together with several principals, are graduates from this city Normal, and now without any warning like a clap of lightning from a clear sky, the Board of Education announces that for the time being the school is closed and gives as the reason for this drastic action that the Board has not been able to place in positions all of the graduates from year to year. Whitt will happen to the Normal for Negro voters in Louisville' and that many of them are likely to remember the closing of this school when the election of new members to the Board comes around. The weakness of this excuse for the closing of this school is evident, when the cost of its maintenance is stated to be less than three thousand dollars yearly. Its value in training the pupils for citizenship fully justified this expense, whether they become teachers or not. The editor of the Pittsburgh American in a recent issue made amends for an omission to give credit to a fellow editor, in the following fashion We desire to apologize to the Washington Tribune for our unadvertent omission of credit line from their very excellent and timely editor under the caption, "National Meetings A Menace," which we copied in our issue of last week, Beg pardon, Mr Editor. We recom mend thisex cell ente ple to the editor of the Detroit Independent, as we found that an item reproduced from its editorial columns as original had appeared originally in a special article in a New York daily "Under the indefinite heading of "Communications," the Urbana Watchman published an article on Social Religion in which the writer stated his purpose as follows: In our short pursuit of this article, we desire chiefly to eradicate from the intellects of the people some poisonous pseudoblepses and deceptive visions. "Pseudolepses" sounds good. A handbook of psychoanalysis should go with every copy. Despite the fact that its managing editor attended the political conference of colored editors held a few weeks ago in New York, the Washington Tribune still finds fault with the working of the Republican machine.

The Negro's Franchise. Editor of the New York Age. I am speaking in behalf of one—am considering this plan of franchisement concerning the Negro. I believe that all men are created in or about the same way. Those who are cultured are made so by education. If a man is colored or white and cannot read nor write, but is a citizen of the United States, should that man be deprived of his voting power? am in favor that the polls throughout the country should designate a man of a woman in every polling place to mark such an individual that cannot read ballots. I am sure if this is done, the Southland of our Fathers would have Negro representatives and more Negro voters. If the Republican party is governed by the Democrats then naturally, they would not tolerate such a procedure. Each party should maintain instinctive polls throughout the land. It this suggestion is not good then erect or have a place in each voting ward solely for those that cannot read nor write. Why should so many colored and white illiterates be left if they were good for ward purposes they ought to be good enough to tell whom they will be to be the Senators or Representatives. The Negro must get the things that are legally his No legislation for the Negro because he was a slave. The slave trader is dead. The Negro is freed and under these conditions. I am as big a factor as Jefferson Davis or Pat Harrison. The power of the Negro is sure to show itself in the South only when the Republicans will condemn to have polling places for the Negro. If the Negro is 1200000 strong then we must have more power at the polls. Why should I submit my power and in dependence for a mere pattition? What we the Negroes of these United States should have is a better league. Compel your demands not by force, might power and violence but by associating yourself with common judgment. No Senators, Representatives will ever force the success of the Negro. Your destiny is yours—other individual will ever promote the national dignity that is yours but yourselves in our districts where the Negro element is great we should bring nothing for it to employ or use.

This warning is timely and should be heeded by the managers of the Republican campaign. William Pickens in the Savannah Journal had an interesting story of the evolution of "A Gentleman Farmer" from a former educator and school official. He said in part: A season or two ago Roscoe Corkling Bruce bought, just outside or the city of Washington where he used to superintend the colored schools, about twenty-seven acres of woods. It was only dense woods with a stream of water on it, and a river ruffing base of it. This he has transformed into an estate with twelve cleared acres a beautiful modern residence, a great barn, a water system, a fifty-seven battery Delco electric plant, and a great hollow-tile hennery where nearly two thousand leghorn yearlings busy themselves with the production of the lest grade of chalk white eggs. These he sells as far east as Boston with demands as far west as Cleveland, Ohio. All this has been carved in a season or so out of the absolute wilderness, by a colored man who had been academically trained all of his life, and who was conventionally supposed to know "chicken" only on the dinner table This might be used as an argument to show that the higher education does not unfair its possessor for practical pursuits, as so many people ignorant or perversely claim. The term of "gentleman farmer" is misleading, however, as it recalls that famous lawyer and statesman who claimed that the milk produced on his farm cost more than the wine stored in his cellar. chen clean or to keep the floor clean. What we want in conjunction with the polls, good leaders, men who wish for equal show in trades and opportunities men who will accept positions for their services instead of a few hundred dollars. Give me the true voters in every city and the status of the Negro will forever be good. We must learn to honor our laders and forever to respect our women.

And I can tell that you are in the same position of King Agrippa when he earnestly persuaded by the Paul to believe in the Lord Christ. So effective was Paul's suasion that Agrippa told him this way. Paul, I'll see you at a convenient time, for almost the persuaded me to be a Christa I wish I had space to comment on your splendidly worded editor as you speak as one who is almost suaded to join with Mr William Lewis of Boston and others in a neither afraid nor ashamed up and be counted in condemnation present treatment of the race in closing paragraph you state that the administration should denounce Ku Klux Klan and free the Klan domination in department and head off the holsters and it possible for self-respecting you to support the ticket etc. There you are Mr. Editor for administration cut out the segregation and discrimination against race and make it possible for specting colored voters to support ticket.

E D W Jones of Florida Bishop Jones announced his text from Matthew 10:10 "Whom do man say that I am?" The theme of his discourse was "The Establishment of the Christian Church" Long before the words of the text were spoken Bishop Jones stated, the church had been founded. He mentioned, Abraham, Jacob, Moses, Eliah, Elisha, and numerous other noble characters of Bible history, who had been shining lights in the worship of Jehovah in their day as evidence of the operation of the church prior to the advent of Christ. The divine plan and purpose of Christ's mission in the world was the refounding of the church Bishop Joules delivered an animated sermon in his illustrations of the incidents that transported which demonstrated the Messiahship of Jesus. In view of the fact that the refounding of the church was done by Christ, it is therefore evident that the name of the institution founded anew is the Christian Church.

On next Sunday the subject will be "The Book of Revelation." First Eminentel Church A glorious day was enjoyed by all who attended the services at the church Sunday. In the morning Pafort Bolden preached from the following text: "He is desplied, and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief; and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was desplied, and we esteemed him not." Isaiah 53.3. Pastor Bolden said: The mysterious quality that constitutes what is termed the prophetic vision is a wonderful thing. Perhaps all mankind have the basis of this, quality within them. The prophets of the old Testament reveal this power to a larger degree than any other historical group. We stand in awe as we read and think about how definitely Isaiah could delineate and define the character of our Lord Jesus, the Emmanuel, many centuries before He made His physical appearance in the world of humanity. His mind reflected a mould in which our Lord was to be politically and socially cast. Our Lord's human career, social opposition, godly demonstrations, physical affliction, physicalotion was described, almost to detail by the prophet. The quality of projective mentality and the ability to perceive and make plain future events shows that there is a universal consciousness, which has everpresent in it the purpose and plan of all life, of all time and human activity. This mind that I refer to is God. And as He will He manifests to individuals His purpose and they are urged by an impulse to tell what they see and know. Here is a man that Isaiah describes in the language of our text, as a suffering, rejected, despised, distinguished man but who was also possessed with a divine personality as would reveal the following attributes For He says, "Unto us a child is born, a Son is given, and the government shall be upon his shoulder His name shall be called wonderful counsellor the mighty God, the everlasting Father, the Prince of Peace Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end Upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth ever forever. The zeal of the Lord of Hosts will perform this" "Since this prophecy came true, we believe that the promised glorious, eternal life, and kingdom will be made manifest. Those who belong to our Lord and have partaken of His spirit must expect from the world opposition and for themselves much sorrow, but we are to be faithful until death, and we will, like Him, receive the crown of eternal life. p. m. the Sunday school was opened by Rev. Bolden. At the close of the loom the Rev. Hogans gave a short review of the lesson. At 4 p. m. Rev. Bolden spoke at the platform meeting at the new Salem church, 129th street and 27th avenue. church, 129th street and 7th avenue. At 8 p.m, the Rev William H. Hogans preached to the many gathered. His text was "Blessed for the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ. Having made known unto us the mystery of his will according to his good pleasure which he hath purposed in himself. That in the dispensation of the fulness of times he might gather together in one all things in Christ. Both which are in heaven and which are on earth, even in him." Ephesians 1 19 10. and "And he that sat upon the throne said Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write. For these words are true and faithful." Revelations 21 5.

E Tyle, pastor delivered a stirring message His text was taken from the 10th Psalm and eighth verse, "Oh that men would praise the Lord for His Goodness, and for His wonderful work to the children of men!" If the world would heed this message, men and women instead of thinking of life as an economic struggle for existence, would regard their lives as a stewardships here and attribute every material as well as spiritual gam to the goodness of God.

At the evening service a class reunion was held. All the classes assembled in their respective places under the supervision of their respective leaders. Dr Tyler delivered the evening sermon to this group of enthusiastic church workers.

Church A remarkably, large audience heard Dr. Brown Sunday morning, "Go to Church ally", on the theme, "Earth's Fire Company". This was a challenge to Christian people and the Christian church; in it, the doubter, the scoffter, the unbeliever and the sinless, had their place. It was among the most pointed, yet persuasive sermons the pastor has delivered. As usual, infant baptism on the first Sunday morning was observed, seven children being baptised. Dr. Brown preached again, at 7.45 to a large and responsive audience. The reopening of the Christian Endeavor Society for their fall activities opened with a large attendance and a full directed program, J. E.

MUSIC AT THE LINCOLN THEATRE Norma Talmadge, in her latest First National picture, "Secrets," now showing at the Lincoln Theatre, plays four different roles in four different periods and in gowns of four different fashion cycles It is a picture of modern romance with glimpses into three other periods of American home life. Starting out in 1923, the picture later shows Norma first as a young wife of the early days in Wyoming and the tar West. Then the action switches, in the year 1870 Norma has become the mother or a growing family. The passing years of the photoplay's story next saw her in the gowns of the late RCs of the last century. Her hair has greyed and the children have grown but it is the same Norma of the early sequences of the story. Last of all Norma is shown again in modern costumes in 1923 settings. "Secrets" is an unusual picture. It has an unusual story which is developed in a novel fashion. And in it Norma has a splendid opportunity, in which she assails herself to the culp to display a remarkable range of characterization. One is hardly able to believe that the Norma seen in the early sequence as a young wife and as a mother is Beginning October 19th SAT.

Bach, Beethoven and Liszt were reverently allotted the throne seats as 'their works' deserved, with Chopin hearing them company.

Do they want business reasonably free from strife and misunderstanding? Do singers and players want a higher level of general business health, long life, better standing in the community and reasonable ecodomile security? Do leader and combinations really want and hope for a better understanding for all concerned in making and completing engagements, as the common quality of their daily transactions? The stock answer to these questions, especially if you put them to an organization or combination meeting, is "CERTAINLY, POSITIVELY WE DO." But the true answer is, "NOTHING DOING." We may do so when we wish to make an impression that we get big money for engagements, or to keep up the bluff that we are "BIG TIME SPORTS," but we do not do so every day, or at any time when there is any possibility of helping to realize such conditions. And we are all pulling oars in the same boat; the FIELD MARSHAL and FIELD MOUSE of music wants the highest prices or, all that they can get, for as little effort as possible. We are all but very little above self-opinion. Very few, if any, musicians and entertainers have lived steadfastly, continuously and completely in pursuit of really great musicianship. We are all vain, amenable to flattery, stirred by physical impulses, by the competitive instinct and jealousy, by anger at opposition, and quite unaccountable flusterations of motive Singers' and players' motives serve to keep them together with a sort of mutual restraint, help, tolerance, but supply no real dynamic force for progressive business relations, or DRIVING POWER to attain HIGHER MUSICIANSHIP. When the contract is made for $10, $12.50, $15, $20, or $25, per man, for an evening's engagement, musicians and entertainers must face the fact that overhead must be paid out of the gross receipts and a profit realized, or there is no reason for remaining in business.

New Orleans, La.—The latest evidence of race prejudice and color bigotry is displayed by Edwin H. Bolte of Washington, and Carl E. McHenry of Lynchburg, Va., who have filed, in name of Bolte, a suit to declare the 14th Amendment null and as not having been properly ratified by the states of the Union The primary object of the suit is to get rid of Walter L. Cohen as Collector of Customs, and the attack is made on the 14th Amendment in the effort to take citizenship away from the Negro. The suit charges that Cohen "fraudently obtained appointment by subscribing to an oath that he was a citizen of the United States, when as a matter of fact the said Cohen is of African descent, and therefore incapable of becoming a citizen of the United States." Bolte declared that the 14th Amendment is "not a part of the Constitution is invalid, void and of no effect, for that reason. The said Article 14 was never legally proposed by two-thirds of both houses of onCgress It never was legally or constitutionally ratified by three-fourths of the states of the United States." Expect Attack To Fail Washington, Oct 5.—The suit reported to have been prepared for filing in New Orleans against Collector of Customs Cohen in which it is alleged the Fourteenth Amendment was not properly ratified, is viewed by the best authorities here as certain to fail. Not the slightest idea is entertained that the courts, and especially the Supreme Court, will disturb the amendment. Because of the troubled conditions that prevailed in the South at the time this amendment, as well as the Thirteenth and Fifteenth, was adopted there have been complaints as to the regularity of ratification. Nevertheless, it was formally declared ratified, and the Supreme Court has time and time again accepted it as a part of the Constitution and upheld it by implication at least Under the circumstances, the court would not for a moment think of disturbing it. It is deemed doubtful, in fact, if the court would seriously consider a challenge of the invalidity of the amendment Wayne B. Wheeler, general counsel for the Anti-Saloon League, who in the course of the fight over ratification of the Eighteenth Amendment made a study into the proceedings with respect to all the amendments to the Constitution, said tonight that the Supreme Court had, at least indirectly, upheld the Fourteenth Amendment as a valid part of the Constitution a great many times "There is not the slightest chance the court will now take an opposite attitude and hold the amendment is not a part of the Constitution," said Mr. Wheeler A similar view is expressed by other authorities While members of the House and Senate Judiciary committees are absent it is well known the validity of the different constitutional amendments is not challenged in those committees The Fourteenth Amendment was submitted to the legislatures of the several states, the number then being thirty-seven, by resolution of Congress passed June 10, 1860. It was ratified, according to proclamation of the Secretary of State, dated July 28, 1868, by the legislatures of the following states Connecticut New Hampshire. Tennessee. New Jersey, Oregon Vermont. New York, Ohio. Illinois West Virginia. Kansas, Maine. Nevada Missouri. Indiana. Minnesota Rhode Island. Wisconsin. Pennsylvania. Michigan. Massachusetts Nebraska Iowa Arkansas Florida North Carolina Louisiana South Carolina Alabama and Georgia Virginia ratified subsequent to the date of proclamation. On the other hand New Jersey Oregon and Ohio withdrew consent to the ratification. This would leave a net total of twenty eight states ratifying the amendment, or slightly more than three-fourths. W.

D'ONOERIO Surgeon Dentist Northeast Corner 125th Street and Lenox Avenue Nothing responds to loving, careful building up of beauty so quickly as a woman's face and hair, when treated the right way and with correct, scientific materials that feed the tissues and create a healthful, peachy skin glow and give new life and elegance to a beautiful woman's hair. Eva Summers proves this by the loviplast that distinguishes her from a roomful of fine appearing women. "Any woman can have supreme beauty of face, and hair that will give her the proudest delight," she says, "for the simple investment of a very small sum of money in Exelento Skin Beautifier, Exelento Quinine Pomade and Exelento Skin Soap, and a small amount of time each day applying these wonderful preparations as directed on the package." "These are all I have used and all any woman needs; these and the determination to put her beauty first and to let nothing interfere with her daily applications of Exelento Skin Beautifier, Exelento Skin Soap and Exelento Quinine Pomade." This writer highly appreciates the compliments of the official staff of The Age, and his patrons. He asks their continued support. **Princeton, N. J.** Princeton, N. J.-The Rev. Rey. Walter F.

The Age is informed by her father, Joseph Murray, who is an officer in Bethel, is named Florence and not "Ella," and it not married, nor is she engaged to any young man. Mr. Murray, was impelled to make this statement, he said, by reason of the fact that many of his friends seemed to have gotten the impression that it was his daughter who had married.

Hoffman, as related in your issue of the 4th instant, has affected me very keenly and stirred my sympathies to the depths. I had never before heard of this young man; but it is sufficient to know a youth of worth has been so villainously abused to abuse in me the feeling of resentment and a strong desire to rectify the wrong. It is a relief to know that kindly hearts have to some degree, come to the rescue, and I sincerely trust that more may be done. The young man is indifferent; she had saved his money, and that with the purpose of acquiring an education. Those are distinct markets of worthiness, and grounds of commendation. Further, I take it, your publication of the story evidences and interest in the case, and is not infended solely as a bit of news. Let me make these before that you begin a transcription whereby this aspiring youth may be fully reimbursed his loss; I gladly send $3,000 to advance this cause.
