Kiely, acting postmaster, to be the postmaster of New York City, succeeding the late Edward E. Morgan. It is generally thought that the nomination will receive favorable action in the Senate as he has been in the postal service since JOHN S. KIELY August, 1895 and has made a splendid record. He was made assistant postmaster in June, 1922 and has been acting postmaster since the death of Postmaster Edward E. Morgan on January 9. The new postmaster began his career as a clerk at Station L, 125th street between Lexington and Park avenues. In February 1905 he was promoted to assistant superintendent of deliveries at the same station but was later transferred to the Grand Central station. In August of the same year he was promoted and made assistant superintendent in charge of the for- station. At the foreign station he was for two years, becoming superintendent of Station A. In May 1913 he became as superintendent of deliveries Grand Central station where he remained until 1917.

Among the twenty-five persons injured, three were sent to hospitals. Included among the injured were the following Harlemites. Nelson Tyzor, 38, of 2368 Seventh avenue, lacerations of face and nose.

"An examination for the purpose of securing an oligible list to fill eight vacancies on the staff of internes at Harlem Hospital was held this month by the board of examiners from the Medical Board of that institution, headed by Dr. Louis K. Neff, president of the Medical Board, and director of Medical Service at Harlem Hospital. Fifty-six aspiring applicants took the examination, among the number being four young colored men, one of whom is taking his medical course at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, the others at New York University, and Bellevue Hospital Medical College. Among the forty-five applicants who failed to attain a ranking among the first eight were the four polored cilio bryo medicos. Fellowing this development, a Harlem paper has come out in a scare-head article, charging that the "Four Brilliant Young Colored Men..." Were "Railroad- (Continued on Second Page) The Rev. Dr. Frank M. Hy As Pastor of St. James A congregational meeting has been called by the Session of St James Pres- bterian Church for February 4 at 9 p.m. at which time it is furnished that the Rev. Fergus M. Hyder, pastor for the past eight years, will tender his resignation and ask the congregation to join with him in requesting the Pres- btery to dissolve his pastoral relations at this church to become effective on March 1. Dr. Mendenhall, clerk of the New York Presbtery, will preside at the meeting. The resignation of the well known divi- come as a result of agitation on the part of a group of elders and more than a hundred members who signed a petition urging the pastor to resign to the good of the work last September. At a mem- berly meeting held in October between three and four hundred of the 1500 mem- bers of the congregation were present and the majority of these voted in favor of the retention of Dr. Hyder. Despite this apparent vindication, the agitation continued and the work is sad to have suffered so much that the running expenses could not be met.

WHEN J' TRAIN SUIP DAYLIGHT BURGLAR RUNS STEEPLECHASE ON BROADWAY ROOFS Caught With The Goods After Eluding Pursuing Crowd Led By School Boy DAYLIGHT BURGLAR RUNS STEEPLECHASE ON BROADWAY ROOFS Caught With The Goods After Eluding Pursuing Crowd Led By School Boy Frank Davis, Abiza Smith, 175 West 132d street, was chased down Broadway, through tellars, over housetops, in and out of buildings, followed by a mob of citizens, led by a 15-year old boy, Newton Patrick, who accused Davis of robbing the Patrick home in 1569 Mayland place. Young Patrick claimed that he went home from school at noon Tuesday to prepare his own lunch his mother was out shopping, and as he was entering he met Davis making a hurried exit with a pair of his pants and other clothing on his arm. Hurrying into the house he discovered the rooms in disorder, showing signs of having been burglared. Immediately the boy set out after the suspected man, who he recognized in company with another man. The two men took to their heels when the boy shouted, "Stop thief!" and a cried of citizens went after them in hot pursuit. One of the men dodged into a hallway, and escaped while Davis held onto the fence and fled down Broadway, taking an apartment, up into hallway, on to the roof, jumping from one houseet to another, and coming down again running into the arms of two policemen in uniform who put him under arrest. Davis was taken to the West 100th street police station, and a charge of burglary was ente d on the blotter against his name. free of all debt. In addition it has a pa sageon in the most fashionable section of Harlem, valued at $15,000. The pastor's salary is $206 per month with free living expenses. A prominent elder in the church stated that the dissatisfaction in the church was not due to any personal feeling against Dr. Hydier, but largely to the fact that the pastor had the power they had hoped. The pre-bysterian membership in Harlem feels keenly the progress made by other denominations in Harlem as compared with St James's growth during the past three years. Some of the members state that the St James's congregation can take over the beautiful Pilgrim Presbyterian Church building on 130th street, near Fifth avenue, as soon as the membership and activities warrant it. When this is done the Rendall Memorial Presbyterian Church can take over the present St James's congregation, and the Presbyterian denomination a better standing among the colored churches of H. Leem. Unable to quet the dissatisfied members, Dr Hydier has found it advisable to resign and permit someone else to carry on the work. ONE PLAYED $1 DAILY FOR TWO YEARS; STILL PLAYING Wife Had To Search For Husband About Your Days; Gave Her $4 Numbers playing the Red Caps at the Pennsylvania Station has apparently assumed the proportions of a part of their daily routine. It is alleged that the runners, collecting for numbers bankers often beat the morning trains by the station and the railroad skies deter these runners who receive the milk money that should be spent on carrying babies, and the fast dime from the widows, the sick or afflicted. It has been estimated that upwards to one hundred red caps play the numbers regularly, despite the fact that it is a dull season, and there are so many red caps working for just what they can pick up in tips, and that few His is a case of a man having played more than $700 in hopes of winning $600 and he is still playing the same number in vain hopes of cashing in on elusive luck. Another "tip collector" at the same station who gave his wife $4 to run the home for the week, was absent from home for four days. His wife, being well aware of his gambling instinct, thought that he had gone to the Stock Exchange to play it there. Eventually the luckless man came up, not smiling but, wearing a long face after having played on an average of $7 a day, and, of course had lost. One discouraged red cap Tuesday but, wearing a long face that trying to hit the lucky number, it like trying to beat the record of the Robert E. Lee he has sworn off—"never again"—having confessed that his wife had been neglected, his family had come to know want, his children had started on the downward road, while he himself was beginning to lose his pride and the respect of his acquaintances. Wives of red caps have told their troubles to friends who are in the same plight, while the game continues to impair the morals of the younger generation and spreads its evil through the community. COPS EXONERATED ON CHARGES MADE BY TAXI DRIVER Case Dismissed In Washington Heights Courts For Lack Of Evidence Three policemen, Harold Peace, Girard Bevalfs, and Leonidas Newcomb all of whom are attached to the Special Service Squad, were excenrated on charges of assault made by Fred Envert, tax driver, on Wednesday January 14, by Judge McKiniry in the 12th District Court, Washington Heights Envert testified that he had narrowly escaped colliding his taxicab with a car in which the three officers were riding and as a result an argument followed in which he was blackened by the car. The officers aware that when Envert was cautioned against his careless driving he became impudent and threatened them with an auto jack. Since there were no scars on Envert the case was dismissed for lack of evidence. The officer's case against Envert was dismissed by Judge McQuade several days ago. Maccoh, Ga—Will Ford, truck driver is being held without bail on a charge of involuntary manslaughter for the death of a 7 year old girl, Margaret Harvey, who was run down by the child. The child died on the way to the hospital. Ford blamed accident on bad brakes which he claims he had not the authority to have repaired. That the men and women who patronize the hooch selling fraternity of this city are practically risking life, health and strength every time they take a drink of the various vile concoctions dispensed under the guise of alcoholic drinks, is shown in the report given out by Dr. Mathias Nicoll, Jr., State Commissioner of Health. Dr. Nicoll's report shows that during the first eleven months of 1924 there were 380 deaths from alcohol in New York City alone. In the whole of New York State, outside of New York City, there were only 181 deaths, the total for the entire State being 501. (Continued on Seventh Page) WILD WEST INDIAN BITES COP'S HAND Puts Up Bloody Fight When Asked To Move A Parcel From "L" Train Seat David Martin, 30, a West Indian of 2061 Madison avenue, is being held for the court of Special Sessions for having bitten the hand of Patrolman Collins of the East 35th street police station. Collins asked Martin to remove a bundle from a seat in a crowded 9th avenue elevated train so that a woman standing with a baby in her arms might sit. Several other passengers claimed that they had asked Martin to move his parcel from the seat and that he had refused Collins, who was off duty and in plain clothing, attempted to induce Martin to give up one of the seats and failing in his efforts, the patrolman put his hand in his pocket to get his shield to show the obstinate man his authority. Then Martin grabbed Collins's hard and hit it in several places. The officer was forced to use his blackhawk on West Indian, head while the women screamed and the men struggled for a chance to get in a blow on Martin. When Martin appeared in the West Side Court on Tuesday he showed signs of rough handling, while Collins was well bandaged up as a result of the bloody battle. Judge Max S. Levine sat on the bench and used Martin's bail at $300 pending trial in Special Sessions. 18-YEAR OLD GIRL FACES GRAND JURY Stolen Clothing Valued At $75 Found In Suit Case 18-YEAR OLD GIRL FACES GRAND JURY Stolen Clothing Valued At $75 Found In Suit Case Mabel Clark, 18, mand. 224 West 140th street was tried before Judge Duras in the West Farm Court Wednesday and found guilty of attempted grand larceny. She was held in $500 bail for the Grand Jury for having stolen articles of clothing from Mrs. Beatrice Branower, 207 Morris avenue. Bronx. Mrs. Clark was a servant girl in the Branower and deceased Mimi and McGrye of the Branower Park station allege that the girl had clothing belonging to the Branowers in her suit case and claimed that she was going to have them laundered. Painted Lips, Silken Gowns, Cigarette Smoke, Droll Music, Round Tables, Ham Sandwiches And Coffee are the Outstanding Features of Newest Dive Opened Up In the Lafayette Bldg. The Colbred Vaudeville Comedy Club, chartered November last, and recently opened at 2237 Seventh avenue, in the cellar under the Lafayette Barber Shop, is the latest joint to shock the modesty of the citizens living in Harlem. It seems to be nothing more than social quarters, having a tendency to breed vice in the heart of the uptown residential section. One enters the new club by way of Seventh avenue, passing down a winding staircase, turning right and left, then facing about he encounters the lounging room, outfitted with upholstered furniture, where brazen women loll about, indifferent as to their posture. Those who were not otherwise engaged prefer to stand around in club rooms and look on. Those that are otherwise engaged are young women hanging on to the arms of careless young men; groups standing up eating sandwiches at the lunch counter; smoking girls sitting in card games with drinking men who buy the stuff they drink for a quarter. In the rear room is the droll music produced by a piano and trap drums, while smokers sit around tables and entertain the opposite sex. There are three other rooms displaying similar appearances minus the piano, one allowing for patrons to dance in the style pecuhar to themselves. Painted lips and silken gowns are continually in evidence and men are in the majority. Many do not care to dance, preferring to drink, smoke and play poker. The club is not that sort of a place where friend meets friend and the companionship seems uncongenial. The environment is commonplace, that element which builds up being wanted. The place is void of divertissement, amusement or contentment. It is no place where the average girl would go for an evening of pleasure. It is not a place where the regular fellow would stop in for refreshments or drink. The lobby has an electric piano which fails to attract while the walls are adorned with photographs of vaudeville performers. The interior decoration is sombre, the back ground dull and the atmosphere a bit boisterous on one hand and thick and heavy on the other. One can spend a year there in half an hour, so to speak, or remain all night and regret it. Officer Reuben Carter Arrests Alleged Automobile Thief مناسبة While entoure home on Thursday night, January 15, Traffic Policeman Renheen Carter noticed a man trying to start a sedan in front of 185 West 131th street. Something about the man's actions aroused the policeman's suspicions, who went up and questioned the man who proved to be Rosi Genario, a laborer, of 310 Fast 121th street. The man admitted that it was not his car and was placed under arrest. The car belonged to Herman Schuhr of Woodhaven avenue, Ramsey, N.J. J. Schuhr defended with attempted robbery.

GREAT INTEREST SHOWN BY LEADERS IN CLOSE RACE Patrolman Carter Won First Cash Prize; Miss Beatrice Barron, 2nd; C. A. Davis, 3rd; Rev. W. C. Brown, 4th; Mrs. Harper, 5th Its A "Neck and Neck" Race Between Six Leading Candidates For The First Prize—New Candidate From Brooklyn, The Rev. T. S. Harten, Has Entered The Race The first period of The New York Age Circulation Campaign contest-closed Friday night. Tens of thousands of credits were issued and every candidate profited mightily. A large number of votes secured during the final stages of the credits period were polled Friday and appears in county court. It is a strange coincidence something unusual in affairs of this kind—but each of the leading club members benefited so equally during the period just closed, that without hairline figuring it would be impossible to determine the leader today. As was stated in an article last week. It seems that the New York Age Campaign is slated to be an extraordinary close one throughout. This was entirely unlooked-for as usually one or two candidates stand out as having a big lead. Such is possibly not the case in this campaign. Leading Close Together With the six leaders none too strongly entrenched in their respective positions, the competition now resolves itself down to the most resourceful member and surprises may be looked for at any time. The competition therefore, so far as the relative standing of candidates is concerned, is right where it was prior to Friday night. Hence the struggle for supremacy will be fought out during the next three weeks for the entire campaign closes February 7. It depends ENTIRFLY upon the results obtained by the various candidates between now and the finish as to who the ultimate winner will be. Everything is "bustle" from now on and change in the standing is to be expected most any time with only a little over a week before the close of the second (2) period Actual Test Still Ahead And now for a whirlwind finish Now for the sensations and surprises These are the days that test the resourcefulness of candidates Here is where then courage makes them fight or the lack of it takes the stiffness one of their knives and leaves them "almost" Sometimes too supreme courage spurs them on when they tire, and that is the GAMFEST FIGHT OF ALL. If you want to be a winner put a bit more speed into the race and get buzzy Big results are to be expected this week in The New York Age Correlation drive, for after Tuesday night February 3rd, lowest credits of the campaign go into effect. All the wide awake club members a struggling for supremacy, with the realization that the final result depends almost entirely on what is done these next few days. As the last days of this stupendous campaign one in sight the club members are working with might and manne for the highest honors that are to be had. Not only will these luxurious grand prizes be awarded the best luck fers, but the fortunate winner will receive the praise and congratulations of all New York and surrounding territory on such a victory. Before Tuesday night, February 3rd when the lowest credits schedule of the campaign goes into effect you can get the winning credits that will make one of the big prizes yours. Start today with that one thought. It's the final burst of speed that wins nearly every race. If this is foremost in your mind, work with all your might today tomorrow and up to the closest hour of the second period This is the way to make sure of success when you have it within your grasp. This is absolutely your last opportunity to secure big credits After Tuesday. February 3rd, the credits will be reduced on subscription, so that a subscription for one year will be worth 1,000 credits two years 4,000 instead of 6,000 as it is now. It is impossible to over-estimate the importance of these last few days. To some it will mean a glorious victory. To other club members who fail to take advantage of the opportunity it will mean defeat. What are you going to do? You must decide at once and act accordingly. After reading this, there is still time for you to secure several more clubs of subscribers and thus increase your credit totals and your chance for one of the bigger and better prizes that will make you the winner, or send you down in defeat. Now that you have won your first victory, DON'T STOP, the first period was not a goal. It was only a step forward.

It was charged further that oral private examinations were given the applicants as a "safe and sure fire method to flunk colored applicants, the colored students being "asked inxed and dishabitable questions, while the young white physicians seeking to be internes "were asked simpler and easier questions and were marked on the favored instances accordingly. Age Makes Investigation 47th Age, realizing the greatness of the accusation contained in three published statements, called on the hospital authorities for an explanation of the circumstances surrounding the re REV. W. C. BROWN, BROOKLYN, N. Y. STILL HOLDS THE LEAD IN CONTEST HE IS BEING PRESSED HARD BY OFFICER CAR TER AND C. W. DAVIS FOR FIRST PLACE Second Period Closes Tuesday Night, February 3. All Club Members Not Qualifying According To Rules Are Being Dropped From The List Here's How They Stand Tuesday, Jan. 20, 10 P.M. cent examinations for internes Dr. M. L. Fleming, the superintendent at Harlem Hospital, declared that the matter was entirely outside of his province and lay altogether with the Medical Board and the Board of Trustees. However, Dr. Fleming declared that through a misunderstanding or part of two colored applicants they had sent their applications for admissions to the interne examinations direct to him instead of to Dr. Neff president of the Board. On turning these applications over to Dr. Neff Dr. Fleming quoted the board president as saying positively and detemtely that the young colored physicians would be given the same consent and be as they were successful in the examination, they would certainly be appointed. It had been charged that one of the objections to colorful待客 at Harden Hospital was based on the fact that the rooming facility would make it necessary that a colored interior would have to room with a white interior and that the letter would not be sent in arrangement. In fact, some time ago when this question was agitated, one of the statements currently at hand to what intereses at Harden was that any more intereses we appeal to the whites would have Dr Neef Talks to The Age Commenting on this Dr. Leininger candidly said that it is probable such a statement might have been made as there is no way to such individual expression but that Harlem Hospital, or any similar institution, would not be controlled or operated on the basis indicated by such an expression. Such statements have been made before, but Dr Neff thought that effects in the past to secure representation for the rate on the hospital staff had been ill advised. He cited his own case, saying staff was hinted at by D Neff, but it that he has been connected with the ser vice for more than a quarter century he given definiess as yet. He return beginning on Randall's Island, thence to the work of the colored nurses 120th street when the present site of the as being of the most satisfactory hospital was vacant expanse. He stat nature and he declared that the relations as a matter of fact that he served between this group and members of twenty five years before receiving his other races in the various departments first promoter and that there were of the institution to be of the most on the present staff of Harlem pleasant and agreeable character Hospital who had worked for years Great pride was expressed in the without even a promotion phase of the hospital work and Dr Neff Together with many of his co-workers said the doctor many years of ef bide of as high a cabbage as that at fort had been given to the building up of the hospital; and was hardly tea white nurses, but that the training suitable to expect men who had devoted given in the Harlem Training School when the test came the author was usually found to be bluffing. Through Dr. D. Mung, an appointment was made to see Dr. Neff who as president of the Medical Board, and director of Medical Service at Harrien Hospital is directly in charge of the competitive examination in which are based the appointments to the staff of interne When seen, Dr. Noff talked freely of his situation. He characterized the chirurg and structures contained in the art referred to as appearing in the Harlem paper as unjust and insecure. He had down as a first principle the thought that those seeking justice must be put themselves. The situation attention and most serious thought for at Harlem he said had his close many years. And this was particularly true with regard to the giving of representation. Neptune physicians, surgeons and nurses. many of the best years of their professional life to an institution to step down and out simply because somebody else wanted to get in. The hospital staff appeared to be unusually healthy, for there have been few deaths and most of them seem to be satisfied, for there are no resignations. So, with reference to the regular staff, if the colored physician are to be given representation, there must be some reconstruction or rearrangement which would make that possible without a sacrifice of self-respect on either the part of these now in or those who he believed it would be possible for he believed it would be possible for right-thinking men to get together on this phase of the problem and find a satisfactory solution. But, said Joe, this solution will hardly be brought about by men who go around all the time with "chips on their shoulders," seeking by antagonistic methods to secure results that can only be secured through mutual conciliation and mutual consideration. As to the Examination Dr Neff said, with reference to the recent intrue's examination, that he could hardly, with dignity, notice the implied charge that the examining board was dishonest and prejudiced. It would be a sore burden, said he, for any man to carry around such action on his conscience. The examination, he said, was rigid and difficult, for only the best equipped and prepared men were wanted, but the members of the board had to be scrupulously just and fair, or their work would be of no lasting value. The four colored men who applied were given the same tests as the others. Three of them were from the New York University and Bellevue Hospital Medical College, New York City, with which Dr Neff is connected as a member of the clinic staff. These men were Merville Whiteman, Arthur M. and V. Leonard Williams. The fourth man, Chester W Chinn, came from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. That one applicant, a young white man, complying in all other respects with the requirements of the board, was not permitted to take the examination because of a failure to file either his diploma or a certificate from the dean of his school showing him to be a qualified medical students, was a bit of incidental information given by Dr Neff. Continuing he said that he was not willing to asccribe responsibility for the unwarranted attacked upon the examining board of these young men, as they impressed him as being of a type of manhood not given to crying in the face of defeat and attempting to throw the blame upon some other cause than their own lack. There were 50 who took the examination, but there were only eight places to be filled, which meant that 48 men had to "take the gate." There was no complaint from the 44 men of other races who were not successful, and Dr Neff believed that the four colored applicants were as "game" in their failure as they would have been competent in case of success.

SATURDAY, JANUARY 24, 1924 MENTIONED FOR OFFICE With the approach of a new political administration, there is a preliminary game indulged in by anxious office seekers, which might be called "mentioning for office". A staff representative of the Pittsburg Courier gave an amusing example of how this game is played in a letter from Washington, D. C., dated January 12. This was displayed under headlines running across six columns, headed "Interest Centers on G. O. P. Appointments".

Kiely as postmaster of New York is another victory for the principle of civil service reform, which shibboleth is sometimes used in a way to bring discredit on the cause. In this case it would appear that the principle was well served by giving the postal service of this great city an experienced and competent head. Too often this position has been made the spoil of politicians and a mere figurehead placed in the office who know nothing of the needs and responsibilities of the service. Mr Kiely entered the service as a clerk in 1885. After serving in various positions and in many of the sub stations he was appointed superintendent of mail in 1922. He has also acted as assistant postmaster and upon the death of the late Postmaster Morgan, he was immediately named as acting postmaster. He is the second occupant of the office, who has seen from the ranks, the late postmaster having begun his service as a letter carrier. While The Age last week referred to the claims of Mr. Lalom, the present superintendent of delivery as among those standing in line for succession, the appointment of Postmaster Kiely presents equal merits. We understand that the new appointment has a record for fairness and constant attribution to his dealings with the co-workers of the office and is absolutely free to base on account of race or color. The good treat to find in the head of any public office, especially the postal service where so many of the clerks and carriers are colored. The appointment shows that President Coolidge is in favor of the principle behind the civil service reform movement, namely the recognition of merit in appointments and promotions. That principle, unsurviving carried out would do away with much of the discrimination now encountered in the government service. The nomination of John I.

WISDOM OF A CHANGE The top of the 135th Street Branch of the Society of New Christian Association for the Year 1924 together with the financial statement of receipts and expenditures, shows that this institution finds its chief usefulness The trustee of the 135th Street Branch of the Southern New Christian Association for the 1924 together with the financial statement of receipts and expenditures, shows that this institution finds its chief usefulness THE NEW YORK AGE in the capacity of a rooming house. The receipts from the dormitory constitute the largest item of its income. The religious and educational activities form but a smaller part of the work when compared with the recreational and physical departments The receipts from contributions are entered at $2,749.50, while it is stated that $5,000 is needed for the year of 1925. Under normal conditions this sum could be easily raised in the Harlem community without any trouble. But the conditions under which this institution has labored during the past few years have been far from normal. Interest has been lacking in the activities of the organization and the confidence and support of the community have been alienated. The majority of the local ministers have felt that the management.forfeited their support, by its failure to insist upon the maintenance of proper moral standards. All this was due to the insistence of the central board of directors in keeping at the head of the branch as executive secretary an official whose usefulness had been ended by his own perverse conduct in running counter to the moral sentiment of the community. It is time that the central board and the local board of management should recognize the wisdom of a change, that would be helpful to the growth of the work and the restoration of its morale. No feeling of pride of opinion should be allowed to stand in the way of the development of this work, which with restored confidence would figure largely in the upbuilding of the Harlem community. Under present conditions it cannot be expected that this work can be accomplished. The wisdom of a change in the situation should be apparent to all concerned. URBAN LEAGUE PROGRAM the annual meeting of the New York Urban League, held January 14, a decree was given of the various accomplishments of the organization during the meeting. It was stated that the convocation is to be more than doubled, and it is the first of April two buildings in the street are to be remodeled as a city league and its coordinating agent, the treasurer's report showed $37,000 during the year. This was point of indication of the interest shown by the city of Harlem and other friends in joining the league's program.

It was stated that the convalescent work is to be more than doubled, and on or about the first of April two buildings in West 136th street are to be remodeled as a center for the league and its coordinating agencies. The treasurer's report showed $37,640.38 raised during the year. This was pointed to as an indication of the interest shown by the people of Harlem and other friends in supporting the league's program. While this is a very gratifying showing of the work of the league in ameliorating the hardships of urban conditions, it would have made a stronger appeal to the people interested if more attention had been given to the opening of industrial opportunities for the race and the increase of avenues of employment for our educated youth. The object of the Urban League as expressed in its motto, adopted some fifteen years ago, was defined as follows: "Not alms but opportunity." This was precisely the need of the times in those large cities., where the younger generation coming out of the schools and the migrants from the country districts entered upon the quest for employment at a living wage. The primal purpose of the Urban League was to find opportunities for these willing workers to enter into the industrial field in occupations suited to their various capacities. It is not enough that the organization in such cities as New York can place a few workers of the race in the ordinary pursuits that were always open to them such as messengers and porters and janitors. With the prestige and influence acquired by the league during its existence of fifteen years and the moral and material influence of its backers, greater opportunities than these should be open to the ambitious and trained youth of the race. The public utilities of the city, which are used by people of all races and classes of society, should furnish places for many of these applicants. The transportation companies require motormen, guards, ticket choppers and change agents, as well as porters and cleaners. If the porter is competent to take the place of the chopper and change agent temporarily, as is often seen on the elevated roads and the subway, it would seem that he could make good at the higher jobs as a permanent fixture. In the telephone exchanges a colored girl operator could give a wrong number, or say that the line was busy, in as dulce tones as any other operator. In the novelty of the job she might even get the right number the first time. Even the department stores, if properly approached might be convinced that the employment of suitable colored men and women might be advantageous in other capacities than porters, elevator operators or attendants. The Urban League is the best qualified agency to endeavor to break down this deadline in the industrial world. With its force of trained social workers it should institute an intensive survey of the situation—and not stop at that, but push the matter with all the power and influence that it can command. NEW POLICE IDEAS e Commissioner Enright returne from a trip to South America wiid new idea to increase the efficien police force in this city. This is Police Commissioner Enright returned last week from a trip to South America with a brand new idea to increase the efficiency of the police force in this city. This idea worked like a charm in the city of Buenos Aires, in the Argentine Republic, according to the enthusiastic account of the commissioner. Briefly stated, this plan provided for the furnishing of every one of the six million residents of New York City with an identification card at the cost of one dollar each. Each card would bear the finger prints and photograph of the owner, so as to render his identification easy, in case he should be wanted at police headquarters, where duplicates would be kept. The advocacy of this plan by Commissioner Enright stamps him as a man of remarkable originality of thought and courage of conviction. Few Americans from the North would have the moral courage to endorse any practice or custom found below the Equator as meritorious and worthy of imitation. The attitude of most Northkorn visitors to South America has been one of mental and moral superiority, which has helped to keep the relations of the Latin-American republics with this country on such gelid terms. Mr. Enright, in urging the adoption of this plan, declared that it would keep many undesirable aliens out of the city, prevent Chinese tong wars and similar disturbances and make policing more effective While searching for methods to fight the increase of crime in this city and increase the efficiency of police work, we would call Commissioner Enright's attention to one detail in which New York is behind many of the larger cities in this country. This is the absence of colored men on the detective force or in any position on the uniformed force above the rank of patrolman. The selection of five or six of these men on the force who have proved their efficiency, to take the required examinations for detective and the higher grade positions such as lieutenant, would soon remedy this deficiency While such a step as this would not arouse the opposition already expressed against the identification card system it would tend to increase the efficiency of the force in way of preventing crime and catching criminals. And after all this is the chief end aimed at in the maintenance of a trained police force. Prevent as much crime as possible and pursue and catch the habitual criminals and put them behind the bars. The rest of the six millions may then be trusted to work out their salvation with or without the aid of identification cards, especially as the commissioner does not seek to make their use compulsory. WEAK POINTS IN THE CHURCH Last week we referred to one of the pressing needs of the times as a real constructive program for the Negro church. The potency of the church as a factor in forming public opinion was admitted, together with its powerful influence when properly exerted. The question of how this influence could best be utilized as a stimulus to racial development was offered for discussion by the religious and secular press. As a corollary to this discussion, we have had our attention called to one or two weaknesses, which if allowed to go without notice, would tend to detract from the strength of the position which the church should take in this plan of development. For instance, one objector criticizes what he styles the unjust and arbitrary attitude adopted by certain bishops toward the preachers of their districts. The preachers are dependent upon their bishops for assignment to their charges every year, therefore an unjust and arbitrary bishop can institute a reign of terror among the preachers under him by sending them, to undesirable charges, if they fail to fall in with his desires. Then there is the business side of church affairs such as the publishing houses and the details of church extension work, which demand men of business ability and practical training to obtain the best results. Lot of these matters are entrusted to untrained preachers without a charge and as a consequence the real business of publication on building churches is batched at the beginning. Religious zeal and protuse piety will not suffice to publish church literature or to erect new churches unless accompanied by some business tact and experience. Then there is the matter of financing church debts and helping weak churches from perishing because of a burden or debt too great for them to carry. Too many churches headed by ambitions pastors launch forth upon a plan of building far beyond the means of the congregation. Excessive bonuses are paid for loans to purchase or build, and the interest charges become too enormous to bear. More closure follows and the building is lost to the denomination, as well as to the congregation that ventured beyond it upwards. Through the church extension department of each denomination there should be means provided through a general tax to finance a project of this kind, that has grown too heavy for its sponsors, provided that it is worth saving. We command the consideration of those weak points in church policy to the thoughtful clergy and laymen of all denominations, who have the welfare of the church at heart. There should be a curb upon the power of those high in the church who oppress and dominate over those under them. Tyranny of all sort is to be resisted, whether the source Comments By The Age Editors On Sayings of Other Editors of it be ecclesiastical or secular. The temporaries of the church should be administered in such manner as to secure the best result, which can only be done through trained management. The relief of weak churches through a tax on the general Defining politics in its relation to the race, the Chicago Whip and Regardless of what we may consider our purpose in politics, they mean something different and something more than politics mean to other people. With other people politics means power patronage, privilege and wealth. With us politics means human liberty. While others are making alliances, allegiances, bartering and trades, mergers and deals whereby they will be entrenched in the control of civic and national machinery we are seeking to gain recognition, respect, justice fair play and the common liberties of life. While we may find it necessary to adopt some of the prevailing methods, it ought to be clearly understood that we are seeking a different result. We must first be factors in politics before we can seek to solve political equations. We cannot become factors until we have realized human liberty. We are not set freed in mind and our politics should be played at this time in the effort of securing liberty and freedom. The importance of politics as an instrument of racial development cannot be too highly emphasized. Through the wise use of the ballot will come many of the rights and privileges now withheld. The right to vote is essential to the constitutional guarantees of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Declaring that there is room for improvement in the mental attitude of the Negro toward this government and its tree institutions, the Ilianapolis Free man said. The worst curve of American racial prejudice so far as the Negro is concerned is the enforced situation which almost complex him to think constantly about himself giving him little time to think and live for the glory of the nation. He is always on the deterent. In spite of all, however, the Negro must manage to keep the welfare of the nation and its needs in first place. The task of adding to the economic and industrial growth of the entire community is his. He must see that it is increasingly clean, healthful and beautiful. He has a citizen's responsibility with respect to government which is vast more than political parties, jobs and interest to the designs of politicians. Good Law and their enforcement, guaranteeing order, peace and the safe pursuit of happiness, should be a part of Negro thought and life. He too should get on in the job of maintaining a worthy intellectual, cultural and moral standard for the entire community. At all events, he should be an asset and not a debt. Of course he will go on in his fight for social justice for himself. He can not do otherwise and keep his own self-respect or go forward. This improvement of self and citizenship should be his major aim. That the necessity for such an attitude is being recognized is shown by the increasing number of thinkers members of the race who have associated themselves with general movement for the betterment of citizenship and the welfare of humanity. Humanity improves so well the condition of all its constituent parts share that general improvement. 一 The Director and not under the heading 'On Making Record' suggested a New Year resolution to that effect. It said: The business of making records extends for beyond record to the king machines at a business that will engage the earnest attention of every young man and woman in station. The words are all of men and women who have the records some good some bad but the records some refer to atrecords that you and your parents and friends will depend on. Make a record it pay to make a record whether you are an employee or a manager or even a student. Make a record of some kind. You must make a record by sticking to your rules by sticking your work better than the best bet. The coming month will make a new order for you to work in public rather than light and he will be in the world. It will be a great day. Do not wear anything into it, keep away as you stand from it, and in good Dont be purchased. Remember the words of Andrew wings. Don't be so smart with doing anything else. Don't be so smart that were the first. Time is great. Good day of wishing. Do not be so smart with anything else. Do not be so smart that were the first. In an edited article that is the New Year the Nashville Closure presented the news that the city will may not be able to do the The people of our country are several large masses of men in homes, schools, and business enterprises, throughout the South. In fact, about eight tenths of the wealth of the colored people is invested in the services of the natives. These people are not in our country invested in a separate advantage, but in any other part of the country. The investment in our country is primarily in the large number of people who live in the property and land, and they are to plant living in this section in peace and happiness. It is essential to the prosperity of this section that they do not leave home, in the particular respect. The South is a great industrial section. membership should be an essential part of the work of church extension. With the correction of such weaknesses as may be found in the present policy of the church, its power to help the cause of racial development will be greatly augmented. with marvelous resources which cannot be properly developed without the cooperation of our people. They are the tellers and plodders who never tire at their tasks, who never cease to struggle until they have reached their goal. When they show signs of prosperity the country prospers in like manner. It is therefore a splendid business investment when the people who make and execute the laws are to it that these people are given the proper encouragement and adequate protection in the exercise of those God-given rights defined by the Declaration of Independence as "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness." We admonish our people to continue to be industrious; save money; to invest it wisely and prepare themselves for the larger cooperation which the economical condition of the South will demand. If we are to pass through seasons of tribulation let us remember that they are blessings in disguise. If we are grone to seek relief let us remember that rolling stones do not gather moss. The injunction, "keep the race contented," which preceded this summary, is a significant foreword to be taken as a necessary adjustment to the continuance of the conditions depicted in such glowing colors. There is another side to the picture, shown in such works as Walter White's "The Fire in the Flint" and Stribling's story of "Birthright." --- "I talked with one of the most prominent colored men of Nashville," said Walter I. White, in his report on the Nashville lynching for the New York World. "It's mighty fine for them to offer a reward, don't you think?" I asked him. "They might as easily have offered a million." he returned cynically. "They know they'll never have to pay any of it." Further comment is unnecessary.

There are places in town where that line of type may not mean anything—but over the National Press Club and along what used to be Newspaper Row it will bring sights and memories of the old Washington in which Uncle Tom' had his part. Tom Carter was an aged colored man He claimed to be "just about seventy" but when he hobbled into the Press Club from his last visit a day or so he seemed eighty-five. He was so weak then that his white friends sent him some a tax cash, giving him a little purse as he left. That's how they left toward him. "Uncle Tom" came here from Fred ericksonburg in 1885 just after the war clouds lifted. For a while he was a porter in a hardware store. Then he acquired a here and what the fellows doing Newspaper Row called a might encounter a going back For almost half a century he sat on the box of a back and waited for the fairs that came at midnight, or maybe never drawn. He made in ground around the new-paper offices and the old Press Club because the fellows there seemed to stay up later. Sometimes they were generals with their tips. Sometimes they could pay at all "Uncle Tom" never kept back against them. As age crept upon him he began to call them "my boy," or my white gentlemen friends. They called his "Uncle Tom" not probably not a man but of known his last name. Characters like this weathered nightmask are institutions last names and matted much in memory in the automobile and taxis began to close upon the old taxis might have. "Uncle Tom" all of the same old stand, but the fairs were fewer and many of the midnight crow passed by his shaky back and climbed into a faster vehicle. One day the horse just stopped, and Tom couldn't lay another. It was no easy way with taxicabs and motor cars starting about him and getting all the time. He said the horse for eight dollars and two long time friends, dumb animal and human, slowly patched and gave way to no more day. Most of the night lights of a few years ago are now off the Washington street pier. Once he turned naturally to in newspaper trial. New paper Row had about paid out the National Press Club was a bigger institution.

Down South where this writer once in life finds many odd-shaped statues like Uncle Tom. They are of white stone where funerals are at tended to by neighbors and friends. They never miss the race problems they don't know that it exists. Some think that these patrons are the real philosophers of their people and every kind over there. phila asserts that this is to a large extent an age of "fault finding" which finds not allogethers bad. It asserts that the Negro Church example of service for our men and politicians to follow has continued: So I say to the Negro man study the church's method to tract the people to your service them. Negro business have not studied their customs fully enough. In their anxieties of fine business, many times people have given our people thought they needed, but not want, and have failed as in the beautiful Dale Hotel at most gigantic failure Phila is known. They should have been at the church does, what they people need with what they such a perfectly desirable passage to the people would have taken. The same is true of the politician. We had an ambitious scheme to give out by Mr. W. C. Martin after the election. If we should ask the Negroes won't get these offices, might be put down as a pessimist. But we will say that if the politician does not get these offices it will be easier to Mr. Copolidge and the politician to control the Negroes politically. Now, the Negro politician does not cater to the Negro in the sense much does. He does not look for flowers and butter from Negroes, and he does not adjust his thinking for Negroes. That's his weak spot. Editor Wright's philosophy well worth study by the business men and politicians, whom he addressed. The Old Dominion philosopher Richmond Planet opened the New Year with this bit of pessimism. "AUTOMOBILE TRAVEL and gratifying, but the expense and disappointing." This sounds as if the editor had invest in a new set of tires for or else had been fined for speeding The Blue Grass Torchlight, p ed at Dantville, Ky., voiced a plant on lack of real leadership. It said "We boast of more than for- san school teachers and pastors many o f that number make a real rattle to lift the race up to plan of real usefulness and respectability." We venture to say that the number of these teachers and preachers are making a real sacrifice in doing their duty to the best of their ability. What needed is a greater number of well-trained teachers and preachers in the first earlier training will serve to make the efforts more fruitful of results. Along with newspaper men there are statesmen on Capitol Hill who will remember the "Uncle Tom" of the verse of the cabbies and night liners they were his "fares," too, but somehow almost seemed to like best the men who worked late in the newspaper offices and hurtsus, so regret today is rather peculiar to the men who write This tribute to "Uneue Tom" is written because he deserved it.

No clank of military accoutrements will attend, but many of his people will greet as passing, and so will many of "my wife's" And, after all, that is after everything that counts when the event comes—whether to a cabman or a kine Crux Of The Negro Problem Editor of The New York Age of the New York Age The so-called Negro problem is of the so-called this problem, but the common duty of securing from those in a possession of power the justice to those so situated that they can entforce their just claims. This is the same difficulty that curses the problem between labor capital, between the small met- and powerful trust, between the sea- nations and the world powers. There is still enough decency to people to make them, no matter how strong, try to find a cover for injustices, and so it would seem publicity would offer a check that be at least partly effective. It therefore, be important to make agencies to watch for movement in legislation that will give cover for pression, agencies that will pull lift the cover from such purposes. However, the only real cure will be affected in the conscience of individual who makes up the people as the individuals so will be the reason, the race, the group.

There have been cases where drinkers have fallen in the saloon immediately after taking a drink, and the only action taken by the bootlegging proprietor or his employees has been to drank the poor victim out and pop him up against a convenient curb, or, in some rare instances, in some some convenient doorway or vestibule. In most cases, the poor devil never regained consciousness, to the extent of being able to tell even where he got the stuff. The investigation has disclosed the fact that there are a few places in Harlem where the bootlegging proprietors exercise some degree of caution in securing the alcohol liquors they sell, and in even fewer cases do the proprietors themselves drink the hoon they sell. In most cases, if a positional customer calls the proprietor or an employee to have a drink, there is an excuse ready on the tongue, glibly and plausibly evading and denying the invitation, but without disclosing the real reason—that the bootleger knows too well the danger that lurks in drinking the stuff he is selling his customers. Pastors Should Warn People With 561 deaths in eleven months, 52 occurring in one month, it is time the Harlem hooch drinker sat up and took notice Commenting on this terrible condition one of Harlem's busiest dwellers offered the suggestion that pastors of churches in this city are neglecting the opportunity to be of vital care to their people by failing to advise them of the dangerous effects liable to allow from disliking the hooch communities, which are generally on sale in the dives and speak cases of the community. Frequent additions and warnings from the police, backed up by the citation of such authoritative data as in contained in the report of the State Commissioner of Health would eventually be of effective service in making the people be cared for as their intelligence in hooch said the physician.

Dr. Lassiter and 8 Others Pledge $1,000—Request $3,000 From Citizens B) CHARLES H. WJLIAMS Hampton, Va.—After hearing the plans of the Hampton and Tuskegee alumni to raise $00,000 toward the $5,000,000 endowment which must be raised by December 31, 1925, in order to get the additional $2,000,000 promised by George Eastman of Rochester, N. Y. Dr. Norman Lassiter, a public-spirited man on the peninsula, asked for Newport News citizens an opportunity to help toward the movement for Negro education Dr Lassiter called together in his office a number of successful professional and business men and presented the proposition to them. There were nine men present who pledged $1000 toward the fund they were Dr W P Dickinson, Dr C A. Eaton, Dr E. E Smith, J H Ridley, Col M. N Lewis, Col R T Stewart, Lawyer W C Brown, William Jordan, and Dr Norman Lassiter To Raise $3,000 They also formed a special committee to work in the interest of the Hampton Tuskegee Endowment Fund among the Newport News citizens who have not been students at college Hampton or Tuskegee. They set up their objective the securing of $3000 in reliable pledges which will be presented as the Newport News contribution toward this fund. The officers of the committee are W H C Brown chairman, J H Ridley, secretary, and Dr Norman Lassiter, treasurer. Newport News is the first city in Virginia where efforts have been made to interest the alumni of the two institutions and citizens in contributing to the Hampton-Tuskegee Endowment Fund. The interest and support given by the Negro citizens of Newport News is most significant and encouraging. The men who are leading the movement and are interesting the citizens to give to this fund have never enjoyed the advantages of Hampton and Tuskegee. This is not obligated to the institutions to help but they are doing so because they feel the movement for greater educational advantages for Negro youth is worth while and should have the encouragement and support of every Negro citizens Asbury Park Friends Give Party In Honor of Robert Proctor, Junior Ashbury Park N J On Tuesday evening Jamestown sets a group of admiring friends and makers motivated to sawwow one of the most private estates of Spring Lake N J and pat homes to Robert Poe; it is his twenty-first birthday.

J.—Sixty-eight percent of the graduates of the Bordentown Manual Training and Industrial School are actively engaged in the trades for which the State trained them, or in closely related ones, accustomed to a report made to the Department of Public Instruction by the extension department of the school. 166 boys and girls have received diplomas from the school since 1915, the beginning of the present administration, with 628 slightly in the majority. These graduates have gone into apprentices trades as auto mechanics, printing carpentry, plumbing, and electrical work for boys and dressmaking, plain sewing, and domestic science for girls. Most of these are following their trades in New Jersey, although better openings have driven many into New York or Philadelphia. Nineteen percent of the graduates have gone on with their schooling to complete high school and to enter normal school or college. Twelve percent have not followed the trades learned, but have turned aside into business or other work for a living. The remainder have not been traced by the extension department. With the opening of the new boys' dormitory this month, the school is on a position now to accommodate an increased numbers of boys and to offer the opportunity of its courses to more of New Jersey's colored youth than ever. Mrs. Bethune's Message To National Federation Of Colored Women's Clubs My dear Co-Workers and Friensl: Greetings and a hearty "God-bless you to every one.

I seemed to hear you thing of your faithful congenious efforts to help those in tired and to develop your own words and souls that you might the better serve God and you fellow-man It is to me a source of gratification and pride that the Kindergarten, Day Nurseries, Homes for Belinquent, the Working Girls and Old Folks which you have established and are maintaining, represent, the writing of checks drawn on apple bank accounts—they repre-nt increasing tool and the sacriber of time and money on the part of you, noble women most of whom must labor for your daily bread. Truth, life is giving on the highest, noblest way, for it is giving yourself, to this great task of lifting those who need your loving ministrations. The splendid results shown in our great National Scholarship campaign led by our dauntless and efficient chairman, Miss Hallie Q. Brown, and your continued interest in the Douglass Memorial, sacred to the memory of Mrs. Mary I. Talbert, reveal the breadth of your vision and the measure of your sympathetic under tandm and love. During the New Year I can only imagine the year you continue your unselfish devotion to the cause and that every club do that man has done, strive to enlarge and interest work among, the junior that we may have a group of trained Negro women to whom we may pass the torch when our days work is ended. This is truend, I consider an apperance needed. I encourage our women on the interest in art and the art work in the next political paragraph. We can only measure up our responsibilities to the welfare of our race by sharing our have opportunities and ability to deal that cerns the progress and well being of the entire group. A Democrat can hold said recent. The race conti nents the problem of creating.

MUTUAL INS. CO. SHOWS STEADY HEALTHFUL GROWTH Insurance Examiners From 3 States Give Company Splendid Rating Durham, N. C.-At the annual meeting of the board of directors of the North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Company held at the home office in Durham, January 12, a preliminary report taken from the books as of December 31, 1924, was considered in detail. Two items stand out prominently in the report. The assets were beyond two million dollars, while over two million dollars were collected in income during the year. Two and a Quarter Million Assets. The assets exceed two and a quarter million, diligently including over $300,000 in real estate purchase price $100,000 in mortgages on real estate considerably appraised; over $200,000 in loans, the policies themselves beingIdentity over $50,000 in approved stocks and bonds, and over $33,000 cash in bank. The company has done remarkably well in spite of one of the heaviest mortality years in its history. Over $40,000 were paid in death claims and over $14,000 in sick claims. The directors pledged themselves to maintain their policy of safe and same management. The officers were again reminded of the grave responsibility resting upon them in the handling and safeguarding of the trust funds under their control. The company enjoys the confidence of the pulge and is determined to conduct its affairs in such a manner as to continually warrant such esteem. C. C. Spaulding. President C. Spalding, the present on the company, is nationally known because of his close association with the successful operation of the company, and because of his general interest in the progress of the Negro. During his many others were elected at the annual meeting of C. Spalding, president J. M. Avery, vice-president and secretary E. R. Metcalf, treasurer E. L. McDougall second vice-president W. J. Kennedy, Jr. assistant secretary Dr. Clyde Donnell medical director. These gentlemen together with J. Wheeler of Atlanta Ga. and M. Clement of Charleston, S. C. all whom were present continue the board of directors. Approved By Examiners The reputation of the Company further strengthened the induction of the examiners of insurance departments of three states: North Carolina, South Carolina and Virginia. In examination it was made clear that an official report could be made to the Company on examination of the National of the Convent of Insurance Commissioners. Among the features in their report appear the following. The Company is the only mutual life organization in North Carolina, of any size, which is owned and managed exclusively for its philharmoners, the examiners found the books and records accurately bent. Stocks and Bonds Verified As to stock and bonds the report says "these items were warranted and traded in position of the bonds and stocks in the treasury of the Commonwealth of North Carolina State and Virginia Department and in position of the bonds and stocks in the State and Virginia Department and Bank and Utility Trusts. There are bonds in detail and interest is warranted present. I return to mortgage and loan and interest in the loan and bonds to be a report. All transactions with the loan were completed and was with the treasury treasurer first in regard to real estate. As further evidence of the company's growth and development, the payment for the tender for the merger was paid. That amount the company tendered was the amount of years it was with the printers at the time the Company was paid. The value of the payment was the value of the printers at the time the payment was made. The amount of the proposed payment was the amount of the payment due. Wm. W. Todd of Cleveland Asst. Vault Custodian In Registry of Treasury Crapshooter Shoots Wrong Man In Private Home Game killing of Mackenzie he was shooting at another man Young Mackenzie is in the East end of L The Carolina Jeffersonian And Prof. Charles H. Moore The Carolina Jeffersonian, the Klein Organ of Raleigh, N. C., in a recent issue said this: "Charles H. Moore is seven-eighths white and he is angry at God because he did not make him eight-eighths white," or words to the same effect. Such a charge against Professor Moore is ridiculously untrue. It is true that he is seven-eighths white and one-eighth Negro in race blood, a circumstance, however, over which he has no control. Professor Moore is a native of North Carolina by birth and rearing. He went from this state as a student to Howard University at Washington, D. C. From that school he went to Antherst college. From there he was graduated, being in the class with Mr. Frank Sterns, of Boston, who is nationally known because of Mr. Sterns' sincere friendship for President Coolidge Mr. Coolidge, too, being a graduate from Amherst college. When Professor Moore was graduated from Amherst college, in a class with a large number of young, white men, he been ashamed of his Negro blood and wanted to be a white man he could have gone away and passed for one, never to return again to North Carolina. But no, he came back to his native state and gave the best of his years in service for its honor and glory. Not so with thousands of North Carolina's half whites who have left here and gone into the north, east and west where they went into the white race forever turning their backs upon their people in the south. For fifty years this has been going on today, their children are scattered in the country, many of them ignorant of the fact that they are Negroes, whose ancestry, both black and white, sleep beneath southern soil. Coming back to Professor Moore His life has been of a faithfulness unmeasured in service to humanity, at a salary quite inadequate to meet the demands of ordinary comforts. He taught us an a b c's and was the first to inflict corporal punishment upon us as a child in his school. Today there are thousands of men and women in many parts of the world, from Manila to Mirao and the Antilles where we work and service to teachers as the results in part of Professor Moore's tutelage; they are dedicated teachers, preachers, bishops, parinthers, mechanic, mechanics and servants. And of North Carolina has a spark of pride for the Negroes from the state, who rank at the top all over the world where they are, then Professor Moore serves as one of their teachers deserves a better reference than the Jeffersonians accusation in the premises. Lored by the weight of years againsted by the many unkindness that have been impaired upon him with his hair a silvery gray, he is retired to private life, but anxious at all times for the desertion of education throughout the world. His love for mark and knots no color bea The greatest glory to Professor Mr. Woods is the fact that he has never betrayed a trust. He has always been of our face with a soul he can call his own. He has never faced to champion the cause of the board. At the same time he has never been near to the whites. And whatever incident as he may have committed it was because he thought it was right. Dear as he is in money, yet he is in the confidence of those who know him best. And although by no means a beginner he is in respects reminds me a trump who is history we know since the trump of whom we are now speaking was bidding over in a new speech on the side walks of New York to his breakfast. What he has done during who he read to his passing tapped the rest of the back. He raised to the can and looked the rest in the face. The rest of the trump Shannon in the can, the food tree, the can. When the preacher had bled the trump said, Why should I be a haunted. No poor I am sure my own and I am hoping to see that a more than the old home in Walden. Atarin whose will knows no rest on account of the wrongs committed against the world in quest of good. Now with the Moore, he can now rest right after that a millionaires upon the trump his soul is his own. He has now to pay a consecuse knowing well that he has made the seventy years of unselfish life. North America. GILMER DRUG COMPANY C. BURG, N. C. D. G.

"But if the offer of 'our services in the premises' was a 'venture' on the part of Charles H. Moore, A. M. Rivera, and S. H.

O. P. in North Carolina. We seem not to now into which shee' in the premises' Servant Rivera fits, but 'Servant' Moore has been an agitator from his youth. He has appeared to kyave a grouch toward God for making him seven-eights white instead of eight-eighths, and when he sees the slight streak of black in him he calls Macbethlike, 'out, damned spot'. But it won't out. 'The leopard still has his spots and the African his skin.' America Must Christianize Herself First, Said Bishop McConnell of M. E. Church Atlantic City, N. J.—The Home Meeting Council and the Council of Women for Home Missions, held their annual meetings here, and Miss Narnie H Buroughs, founder and president of the National Training School for Negro Girls at Lincoln Heights, Washington, D.

In an address to the Home Mission Council of which the Rev. Charles J. White of New York executive secretary of the Baptist Home Mission Society is president, Bishop Francis J. McCouncil of the Methodist Episcopal Church asserted that if America was not the nation the world, she must first chanize herself. America is as paran as any other country in the world," the Bishop said, and the other countries are booking to us to set an example. Missionaries going into other countries are respected as individuals, but they are not considered as representative of the American nation. We must Christianize institutions and organizations. Too many people are incompletely redeemed. Commenting on modern youth, he said that if did older people good to be rebuked by their children.

Howard's withdrawal from membership in the Colored Intercollegiate Athletic Association. The Lincoln University Athletic Association does meet this week, but Dean John Johnson said that to the best of his knowledge the conference entered into before trouble arose in the C. I. A. A. would stand. Dean Johnson's reply and Dr. Scott's rejoinder were as follows: "My dear Dr. Scott: In answer to your letter of January 27, as to whether the contract for the football game between Lincoln and Howard next Thanksgiving Day is to stand, I would reply that to the best of my knowledge it will stand, since it is not our policy to repudiate contracts outwardly considered value. At the same time, the Howard has withdrawn from the C I A A, and since the contract contains a clause that the game is to be played under the eligibility code of the C I A A. I, should like to inquire whether Howard repudiates this code and if so, what code the game is to played under? It would be very helpful to me personally in answering the many inquiries concerning the matter, if you would give me a direct categorical reply to this question." Very truly yours, (Signed) "GEORGE JOHNSON" "Dean of the College" Dr. Scott's Letter Dean George Johnson, Lincoln University, Athletic Association, Lincoln University, Pa "My dear Dean Johnson I have your letter of January 8th. It is pleasing to all of us here that Howard's and Lincoln's athletic relations are to continue. We particularly appreciate the fine spirit you have shown in this whole matter. Please permit me to say that it is the sense of our Board of Athletic Control that Howard's withdrawal from the C I A A. does not alter our committal to the observance of the highest ethical principles of intercollegiate competition, or of both the law and spirit of her contractual agreements.

It was estimated that this was one of the largest crowds that ever witnessed a game here. Wild cheering held was from the moment the teams appeared on the court until the last basket was scored in the hard-fought contest. Hampton, used to her spacious court, was at a disadvantage in playing on the small court, the sideline of which was composed of spectators' seats. The promoters of the Hampton Lincoln annual game have decided to stage the game next year at the Broad Street Armory. The present place is too small to accustom the ever-increasing basketball game. Retreating this class, the basketball game is explained to spectators that the game was a big step in making amateur athletes. He is satisfied that the spectators get trapped from jeering the players of the officiating team. Both teams seemed to be in perfect physical condition and bubbling over with enthusiasm Lincoln, however, as soon as in shooting, the teams played for about three minutes before any scout was made. Nothing could secure a score until Hargrove sank a field goal from a foul shot Iambright followed with a foul shot to put the score in Hampton's favor. Iambright was now in full swing. In the first half every member of the Hampton quintet had succeeded in doing his share in mounting up the score just as each had promised to do. I even a Captain Langston uprated the Lincoln by byron in a field goal. He also scored a tree throw. He positioned at stationary guard cedron gives him an opportunity to shoot, but when he took it he made good. The Lincoln quintet used something new to get through Hampton's five man defense. It took five times. In Bird, Lom colin was a fast player who is fast and who still uses his football 'tech' on the basketball court in cluding players. Once he broke through for a basket. Lincoln's Massie Woods and Day were well guarded and held almost scoreless. The first half ended with the score at 15 to 9 in favor of Hampton. Between the Hampton sharpshooters were told something and began to sweep in closer under the basket. Each time they did this the referee would signal the scorer that 2 points had been made. Hampton made six times as many points as Lincoln in the last half. 'The he injured with a 40 to 15 score. He was out of the game in beating Lincoln in last year after the Lions had a 19-point lead, was an unscoring star. He took scoring honors with 14 points. This midget-like player from Kansas City won his way to the hearts of the Quaker City folks. Hargrove, a New York City boy, was second highest scorer with 11 points. He was slowed up by an injury received in the Shaw game. McNichols was a close third with 10 points. He also New York City captain Justin Langston contributed to another every threatening fully made by opponents.

STATE PRISON Was Hotel Waiter and Shot Son of Owner Who Had Attacked Him Easton, P.-Adébics have been received here by Mrs. Mary M. Lovings of 336 Spruce street, that her husband, Alexander L. Lovings, formerly of Port Antonio, West Indies, had died in the Eastern Penitentiary, Philadelphia, on Wednesday January 4, at 1:30 a.m., of tubercular mungitis. Mr Lovings, while employed in the dining room of the Hotel Kardilion Here in Easton, shot and killed a young white man, the son of one of the preachers of Brooklyn, who had been killed him. His plea of self-defense was strongly urged by two of the rest attonants in the country, Rufus I. Perry of Brooklyn, N. Y. and Joshua R. Bennett of Philadelphia. The defense was only conducted and the lawyers, by their skillful "taking of the case, won the admiration and respect of the court officials and the public at large both for themselves and for the race. Public sentiment was strongly antitoward of Lovings who had only lived in Easton eight months, but had both in a reputation as a law-binding citizen. He was convicted on a second degree verdict and sentenced to 9 to 12 years at hard labor, with solitary confinement and a $1,000 fine. The severity of this sentence was more than the man's physical strength could bear, and his health failed, with death following. He is survived by the widow, who has maintained her home here, and a number of relatives in the West Indies. Mrs Lovings expresses grateful thanks to the people who helped during this trying period with their love, sympathy and money. Virgin Islanders Charge American Official With Persecuting R. Francis Virgin Islanders Charge American Official With Persecuting R. Francis St Thomas, Virgin Islands, U.S. The trial and conviction of Rothschild Francis, editor of The Emancipator, without being given the privilege of a trial by jury, is characterized by the people of these islands as an unwarrantable piece of prejudicial persecution. The judge of the District Court George W. Williams, a white native of the State of Maryland, writer of a surrivial article published in Current History for February, 1924, under the caption, Misrepresentations Concerning the Virgin Islands, presided at the trial and pronounced the death of the author, whom thirty days imprisonment for publishing an article in The Emancipator, headed "A Native Bateski" in which the local police force was secretly cultured for imprisonment of a private citizen The prosecuting attorney was Charles H. Gibson, also a native of Maryland, who is in St. Thomas as police judge, government attorney and chairman of the Electoral Board Judge. He attorney for Frances, established all the facts alleged in the article which caused the trial but Williams, convicted Frances, and then allowed five draws in which to appeal by a vote on the sentence. The people look upon the situation with indignation, declaring that racial and personal prejudice from the basis of Williams attitude but they realize at the same time that they are important. The lack of a jury is the principal ground for complaint that action in this case has taken at attorney of the District Court Judge, who is appointed by the Electoral Governor, an officer in the U.S. Navy.

One one. "What's the use of our living if we can go to some guy who will hand out some sort of bed stuff and let us go back to work when getting us, well in double quick time! Get! Not that. I want to go to work. I never found anybody who was so crazy about that, but I like to heat at down the get-well quick road" "So you all have got that bug, have you?" asked his neighbor, with a dry laugh. "You will give up your room milk and fresh clean bed and the milk and fresh clean food. We good nursing care and the daily 'watchfulness' of these physicians who are authorities on this particular 'bug business?' "Sure I would, if I can get well quickly and save money! You bet your last dollar I would!" Save money is good! You aren't sure how to do it. I notice and that goes for things you just want and don't have to have." "Well—but don't you want to get well quicker than what you are doing here?" "Sure! but it isn't possible. This here disease takes about so long anyway, depending on your own particular case, and let me tell you that I've seen a lot of fellows get bats in their belly about goin' off to try to catch someone, and one day of someone who has a good publicity agent I've seen a lot of 'em! Believe me. When they try to come back in here they certainly look as though they had been speeding—but down the wrong road. And goodness knows how many kinds have been downed by 'em while they were speeding. These here sure cure's are fine for the ones who aren't sick—or the guy who has who aren't sick, little trouble anyway, and for the one, and the friend, who goes to improv! But just let the fellow who starts to go bad try to stay, in on the show! Say! He gets the merry good-bye and don't come-around here-anymore" "Oh, go on!Those guys who start to go bad are the ones who don't play the game honest!" Don't for yourself! They play the game hard, but there is a certain type of patient who goes bad once in a while, no matter what he does, and just like I say, when he shows a sign of going bad, he gets kicked out of the get-well-uqick factors. That's so as they can claim a high batting average of cures "because you knitnin where they stand by you no matter what happens to you—right here.

Athletic Conference Considers Problems That Concern School Athletics Sallibury, N. C.-About twenty o' the larger colored schools were represented in the meeting of the North Carolina Athletic Conference held at Livingstone College. Saturday, January 10, where the many problems concerning fair and sportmanlike conduct of inter-school athletic contests were considered and serious efforts made to solve them. In the period of about a dozen years that the Association has been functioning the situations surrounding inter-school athletics have become more and more complex and difficult to handle. The imperative need is for enough flexibility in the regulations of the Conference to accommodate it to the needs, both of the larger schools that are outgrowing their sister institutions in strength and prowess especially in football, and also of the higher high schools that are beginning to ask admission to the Conference. For that reason a division of the schools for 1925 was made at this meeting. The sport that most emphasizes the inequality in the strength of the contesting schools is football. For that reason the schools in the league were arbitrarily divided into two groups for football contests and cups are to be awarded in each group. The division is based somewhat upon the strength of the football team produced by the school last season. Group A includes, Shaw University, Durham State Normal, A and T. College, J. C Smith University, Livingstone College and Bennett College All other schools of the league make up group B. In the meantime, a committee is at work upon some, plan of grouping that will satisfy all the schools. Most of the ills of the Association are traceable to this need of proper grouping and to the athletic weakness of some of the schools who place the winning of games above true sportsmanship. It was apparent that the Conference is determined to foster clean and fairly contested games among the school. Until, however, the individual schools of the State led by the principals put aside their fear of losing games and enact scholarship rules with teeth in them governing the personnel of teams and Athletics as a factor in character and physical development becomes more important, the laws of the Conference will be ineffective to cure the ills at present so apparent in inter-school contests IF U DON'T C COMPUTE DR.
