The club is also planning an entertainment in the near future, the proceeds of which will be to aid the work at the Katy Ferguson Home Special Service Officer Is Wounded By Pistol Shot Joseph, Anselina, 1904 Second avenue, of the Special Service Division, was shot in the left side of his neck by a man said to be named 'King', in the billiard parlor of John D'Powell at 2493 Seventh avenue. Tuesday morning about nine o'clock, after an altercation that ensued when the Special Service men entered the place looking for policy players Officer Angliss was with his partner, Patrolman Wordan, at the time of the shooting, at an apartment where the gunman and the wounded policeman was attended by Dr Sherman of the Harlem Hospital, who stated that the wound was serious. Officer Anselina has a wife and six months old baby Colored Women Serving On National Board, Y. W. C. A. Colored Women Serving On National Board, Y. W. C. A. The City Department of the National Board of the Young Women's Christian Association for the past two years has had serving on its committee Mrs E P Roberts as a resident member of the committee who choares not only in the church and planning for the churched women and girls but for all we men and girls in the cities through the country. Mrs Emma Ranson, wife of Bishop Reverdy Ramson, who for many years was chairman of the 187th Street Branch for colored women and girls in New York City, and who served as a member of the board of directors of New York City, has can become a prominent member of the National Board. As soon as he can be relieved from obligation in the accounting for military property, in his possession, Col. Arthur Little will give up the command of the 69th Infantry, New York National Guard, having already sent in his resignation, to the State Headquarters. Col. Little saw service in France as a major in the -Old- 15th (69th A. F.) and succeeded to command-of the present military force following the resignation of William Wilkinson, first commander. The present 69th was formed during the war to take the place left vacant by the centering of the Old 15th N. Y. into the United States Army for foreign service. The development of the '690th to its present stage of efficiency, is due entirely to the splendid ability of Col. Little, whose fecile brain was continually devising plans for building, up interest in the colored degiment. It was during his regency that the present artery on 143rd street, between Fifth and Lenox avenues was provided and erected. At present it provides only drilling facilities, but the ultimate plan is to have a magnificent library for education and libraries for administration purposes, and providing a number of community and welfare service outlets. It is the opinion of many of Hartem's leading citizens that Col. Little's resignation at this time is on a calamitous naure, and Gov. Smith is to be petitioned not to permit the 360th commander, to request that there be those who are abetting for a naure, to replace him for the reiment, but there is another element which believes that the regiment is not ready for such a change to be made, citing to the fact that so many plants vital to the organization's success are still in process of being built, Col. Little has given largely of himself to the building up of the regiment, and if he does finally go, his leaving will be the cause of deep and sincere regret on part of both the military organization and the citizen body. Freeport Ku Klux Make Gift To Negro Church Despite Strong Protest Freeport, I. I—The Klu Klus Khan of Freeport on Sunday night presented two silk flags, an American flag, and a church flag, together with $400 in gold, to the Bethel African M. F. Church here. The presentation was made after half of the church membership yesterday afternoon, having learned of the Klan's intention toward them had written a letter to bishop W. H. Heart of the Eastern Church in the K. K. villages and asking that the pastor be instructed to decline them as well as the interference of their "Protestant white gentile" neighbors. The Klan-men, 500 strong and in full regalia, filled to outflowing the little wooden church in Beington Park. Other white men and women, not members of the Klan, also attended the services, so that the white visitors far outnumbered the Negroes. Dr W. H. Kingston of Farming-dale made the presentation. The flags and the money were accepted by the members, councillor Camille and the Rev. Robert Stiles, the pastor Mr Stiles after proper thanks for the white folks' reprimanded those members of his congregation who had written to the bishop in criticism of the Klan 4 Trips Around World Given by Mme.

The churches and streets were filled all day and until late at night. People on every hand were Sunday morning carrying pieces of palm, either in the hand, or in the hat band, or pinned to the lapel of hat in the church. Churches were crowded with worshipers, some of whom probably had not attended religious services since New Year's Eve or even as long age as last Easter Sunday. The overflow at Mother Zion Church was half as great as the regular attendance while Abyssinian Church was packed to its capacity. Music was rendered by a full choir of sixty five singers, with two violinists, organist and choir master. There were many that attended the Christian Endeavor at Salem Methuselah Church Sunday evening and the choir rendered The Palms as one of their selections. The Girl's Quartet sang and there was a Violin solo by Miss Alamina Allen and a vocal solo by Miss Ruth Green. St. Philips Church was crowded at its night services at which the choir sang an oratory, "Calvary" by Louis Spohr and the services were for the first day of the Holy Week. The Tabernacle held dedicatory services and the second anniversary of the pastor. Rey, John Joseph. The Hastings Tabernacle is holding service temporarily at 232 West 134th street and the trustees hope to build a new church in the near future.

The widely heralded protest meeting of Negro Democrats against the leadership of Commissioner Ferdinand Q. Morton, which was held at the John H. Neil Association building, 112 West 180th street, Thursday evening April 2, jailed to develop any strong opposition. About 75 people were present and those who spoke appeared disgruntled because they had not received the patronage as individuals which they thought was their due Oscar Waters delivered the invocation—and to have been his first prayer in six years, and also acted as the presiding officer. He called Cratelius Hughes editor of the Federal Review who made a white stock on Hervet T. Chapelle, a white stock with T. Chapelle and of the organization turned over to the creature. He also arranged Mr Morton for appointing young men to political jobs in reference to the older members of the party. Mr Waters then made a speech himself and urged the speakers to refrain from making personal attacks. Mr Waters told of some of his experiences, especially of the term he spent in jail. He said that all of his make mistakes and no man had the right to condemn another. The speech took all the time out of the meeting, so much so that when a set of regulations were read by Henry Seaton, which also was to be presented to Judge Olivany, leader of Tammany Hall, they were hitherto accepted by the members who remained to hear them. The other speakers were Mrs. Trane Morrison *Black-touche*, John Bell and Attorney Louis V. Leavelle. They all took of personal dissatisfaction but didn't have any suggestions to offer. They were accusing the opinion is expressed that the opposition against Mr. Morton was inspired by white leaders and that the ultimate effects will be to strengthen the leadership of the Commissioner. TELLS JUDGE EVIL SPIRITS MADE HIM JOSTLE THE WOMEN David Myles, when brought before Magistrate Marsh in the West Side Court Monday, charged with posting women in the subway shuttle operation between Times square and Grand Central stations, told in a humorous way that he was full of devilment. Defectives Barry and Finken apprehended Myles and brought him mannequin. He was planned that he was possessed of his clothes and told the judge of his crimes to resist the incinations of his 13 doorgs. "Foul sports were a ralm meudge but I didn't make up to 'em I'm a God-fearing man I wanted to show them spirits that I could beat 'em by not do what they wanted me to do. They told me to rob women but I rode back and forth in the shuttle resisting temptations, showing them even the 'em he kicked." "Did you probe women sitting on or off trains?" Magistrate Marsh asked. Jud Myles, admitted that he had done so. For three months, Goldgraben, the bootlegger, will find his Lenox avenue operations curtailed to the extent of three hooch joints less than usual, that number having been ordered padlocked by Federal Judge William Bondy of the Southern District, New York. His pocket will also be lightened to the extent of $3,000, Judge Bondy also fining Goldgraben $1,000 for each place. These joints were camouflaged as cigar stores, and are located at 503 and 573 Lenox avenue and 200% Madison avenue. All of these places have been listed by The New York Age as hooch joints, and Assiststadt United States Attorney John M. Cashin states that Goldgraben has been operating them for more than three years. Realizing that the evidence was incontrovertible, Nathan R. Goldgraben, to use his full name, pleaded guilty to violation of the prohibition law rather than stand trial. was on. Finally during the intermission, wilgen the club orchestra was dispensing alluring and enticing dance music one of the ladies in the party expressed a desire to trip the light fantastic toe with the young colored man in the party, and they proceeded to do so. Barred Mixed Couple With modest circumspection, the couple were soon gliding across the floor, but Manager Griffin soined Addresses Are Noted This made the first serious mea-sure to the university since the beginning of the year, since United States University Embryo Buckington took charge, March 1, succeeding GEL William Seward Mr. Caskin, his assistant, in direct charge of these rum prosecutions, declares that it is the beginning of the end. It is to be noted in this connection that the various publications made by The Age, concerning hooch selling in Harlem, with the publication of the hooch journal, hooch joints, have been carefully noted by the prosecuting agencies and much information gained therefrom. At the same time, some of the hooch hounds are extending their activities. Well authenticated reports are to the effect that Mason Sternberg, who runs the Ells' Smoke Shop at 202 Fifth avenue, is enlarging the space of his immunity from being interfered with by the police or federal agents. He declares that he "sees the proper people and no one can close him up. Whatever may be the basis for his alleged boasts, Sternberg, who lives on East 72nd street, is still doing business among the Harlem people to time there appear evidences of the fact that the men of other races who come into Harlem seeking financial profit are actuated solely by ayarice and are not concerned in either moral or physical well being of the people. One instance of this is seen in the institution of the Cotton Club, located on second floor of the New Donkglass Theatre building at 142nd street and Lenox avenue. This club is owned and run by a bunch of white individuals, who have no thought of defency, but its entertainers are all young colored girls, selected primarily for their pulvinar and ability. Its manager is also concerned, the well known Kid Gritsch A Typical Club The Cotton Club is typical of the many resorts of this type which have come into existence since the Volstead law went into effect. A high-class orchestra is employed, and a hey of pretty girls engaged and incorporated into a dashing resue, with plenty of dancing and dancing with the general public is supposed to be admitted at any time, up to the limit of the accommodation provided, the only requisite being a purse of ample size filled with Uncle Sam's legal tender. But—when a party of colored pleasure seekers drop in the place the first shock the uncle is a neglected man, or charged water ordinarily 10 or 15 cents will cost 50 to 75 cents which that price is also on bottles of the ordinary ginger ale that the corner store sells for a mere $15. This might be termed drawing an imaginary color but. But there is a more definite distinction. A few weeks ago a collar was worn on company with a party of friends, all of whom were white and they called in at the Cotton Club for a few minutes of recreation. The party was given seats at tables, and the jerry wheel. If you have anything to sell of if there is anything you want to buy, you'll get quick results from The Age Classified Ad—page 10.

Finally during the intermission, when the club orchestra was dispensing alluring and enticing dance music one of the ladies in the party expressed a desire to trip the light fantastic toe with the young colored man in the party, and they proceeded to do so. Barred Mixed Couple With modest circumspection, the couple were soon gliding across the floor, but Manager Griffin soons piled them, and the report is that, he reached them as quickly as possible and politely requested that they stay explaining that mixed cuddling that was white women and colored men were not permitted to dance. Much chagiried, the young woman expressed her opinion of the rule, but the management was adamant. Just a few minutes later, though without being bothered or interfered with in the slightest degree by anyone, another mixed couple was seen in the floor but it was a white man and a colored girl. Similar occurrences have been reported before and at any time the girls who entertain can be seen drinking and dancing with the white patrons. The Notorious Connie's Inn Objectionable conditions in connection with the operation of Connie's Inn, the notorious cabaret resort operated by Connie Immerman and his brothers. Residents in the neighborhood have been constantly complaining of disgraceful actions and the place, but the latest complaint is since this place reopened this present season, it is a common occurrence for young white women to come out from the place on to the street, in all stages of intoxication, and to indulge in such actions as would put to shame the most hardened libertine And the language uttered by these, young women the same time is certainly the kind usually heard in Sunday school. Just why the neighborhood is not afforded proper police protection is not clear, as it said that "policemen are almost always in evidence in the neighborhood. The insinination has been made that possibly there is too much intimacy between the cops," the cabaret proprietor of the patrons on nightly notwithstanding the place was refused a dance license.

Miss Lockett charges that her landlord had her framed up by two detectives when she sued him for a reduction in her rent. She also charges that Charles Marks, a local attorney, accepted money from her to defend her interest and then failed to pay. Friends who know the young woman declare that she is of excellent moral character and express the belief that she has been unjustly prosecuted. Her lotta to Mr. Moore is in part as follows: In July, 1924 I took a three room apartment at 236 West 146th street from Leopold Weiss of 231 West 145th street. The apartment was in a house recently turned over to colorado tenants and was located on the ground floor. The rent was $85 per month and there were no improvements. "I joined 'the Colored Tenants' League, of which a M. D. L. Marlow is president, and which had headquarters at the public school on West 119th street. Charles Marks, legal adviser to the tenants, told me that I was paying too much rent, and since I had paid only one month's rent and a month's security, he ordered me to pay the second month but make the landlord takes me to court. He said that he was sure my rent could be reduced to at least $29 as the whites who moved out-paid only $17. Detectives Faked Her With I did as he told me and Mr. Wren took me to court. I paid Mr. Marks $25 to appear for me, a receipt for which I am now holding. The came up on August 29 and was appointed until October 6. Then on October 6 I went to my apartment, pretending to be selling electric heaters. When I allowed them to come in, I was placed under arrest and charged with being a prostitute. I had at that time $76 in my pocket, two weeks before I told me to keep on hand, to pay to the court when called upon. ... "The detectives opened my pocket book and took the money. They left me with about $12 which I had in another part of my bag. All the time they were searching me one of them bad his gun stuck in my side. I was taken as Jefferson Mall, but did not know what the charge against me was. After being detained a few days, a motherly matron took a liking to me and I told her my story. She advised me to send a message to the lawyer whom she thought had advised me into this trouble. I wrote a message to Mr. Marks. The matron took it and his wife answered by phone. She said to expect him the next morning. But he never came. Is A British Subject "In the meantime, it was found that I was a British subject and was brought out to Ella Island to be deported. My trial came up here on January 6. I told the Inspector of my case before the trial and she told me to try and get a lawyer. She was sure that she would get a lawyer with letters. Mr Marks but he never as much as sent me an answer." . "When the trial came off the two detectives who arrested me did not appear but another man, a Peter Smith, came and testified that he had seen the other men taking money put in his pockets. He said his full testimony, I must have gone insane with rage for when I found myself I was slapping his face as fast as my hands could move. "The news went through the building and Mr. Landis, who was at that time Assistant Commissioner, was highly indignant because a colored woman had slapped a white man in "A few days later I wrote Commissioner Curran asking permission to go to New York to get my things—a favor which was granted the other girls in the room with me. Assistant Commissioner Landis answered, this letter, saying that he would not allow me to go to New York, but that I should write a friend and have my things sent to me." Appealed To Consul "I then wrote my whole case to the British Consul and he immediately took it up with the authorities here to find what they intended to do. The Police Headquarters could not tell what had become of my clothes and furniture, and I was taken to the jail, and she learned from the janitor that my things had been put on the sidewalk five days after I was arrested, which was before I was tried. . The janitor also said the police had watched over them for a day and night and then a police wagon drove them away. After the court up the case I received word from the authorities that my personal effects and household be longings were sold at public auction and that I should apply to the Department of Finance for the any difference above the cost of the I received a letter from the British Consul Monday in which he stated that the Department of Finance had turned my communication over to the Commissioner of Public Works and I would receive a reply in a day or two. My passport was lost with my other things and another passport will not be issued unlucky. I can produce the other one on my money to pay for it and get my British passport and I would rather go to the public chair (I can have my mother know what has happened to me. Therefore I must be obtained here until such papers can be gotten for me. Record For Fve Years "I came to America about five years ago, and can give a record of the places I have worked from three weeks after landing until the time of my arrival. Before getting an apartment of my own, I lived wired at S.F. West 120th street, Mrs. Sobers 33 West 140th street, and Mrs. Arnold at 153 West 142nd street. All these families know me and will testify to my character. I was an operator and draper on dresses and had joined the Drasmaker's Union. "Although I am relegated tag to my old home, Trinidad.

Charles D. Douglass, who denied the truth of certain joins published in the newspaper disagreed to a trial in the 21st District Court in which a wom- nage member used and waged a judgment for the return of $160 which she allegedly loaned to the militant and which she declared she had been unable to get back. The statement is as follows: "This committee, of member of the Baptist Temple Church, via H. Emma Holmes, imammaw W. H. Dekaune Dora Harria, Sarah Dixon and Goble Hornt, with Chase M. Taylor, church trust, received from their pastor Dr. Boulasse, the following statement, with references to the newspaper articles published in the Home Msg and the New York, Age some weeks ago, regarding a trial of March 13 held in the West 152th court chambers. The statement of 'Dr. Boulasse' is as follows: "I fatharre, I owe an explanation, to the public, in liaison to my family, the Baptist Temple Church, of which I have the honor of being a pastor, the Baptist Minister's Conference of New York City, of which I am vice president and for the protection of myself as a law abiding citizen. I wish to say first of all that I have never, at any time, borrowed one penny, merely I have borrowed one hundred and fifty dollars, ($150.00) from the one whose name is mentioned in articles. "It is very unwise any man to owe this amount to any one, and allow it to go to you with making any one effort to settle in some way. What would I do as a minister, and poor aspect to gain, by allowing such condition to obtain." There is no 'truth whatever' in the statement that I owe the name mentioned in the papers, $150.00. If I had borrowed it, I would have arranged in some way to have paid it, as know me it in a business will agree with me, and give me business with some of the larger firms of N. Y., and on some very important notes. It is simply taking advantage of the position of a Christian minister who is not displeased to slinging; mad, as men in other walks of life can do. This whole matter was thoroughly investigated by the deacons of Baptist Temple Church. The woman in the case said to them she had nothing in writing, not even a receipt, to show that she had loaned the money, and that was a writings to the commission but the two old ladies and L.

"The deacons at the business, meeting recommended to, the church that, she be excluded from, the fellowship of the church for bringing a false charge against the pastor. After the church had excluded her, she came to the next regular meeting of the Deacon's Board, companyed by a man, whose claim to a mime was one of the oldest out stand. Baptist churches of Harlem. When asked by the chairman of the Deacon Board, what she desired, she said this man was her witness, although she had said in the meeting that was called for the purpose of, investigating this matter, that she had no witness to the transaction, no receipt to show she loaned money, and that no one had the and myself, and that such conditions the board would not enter again into the church had decided as 'being final. "She then went to a colored lawyer, and he would not take the case; she then went to a white lawyer, and he would not take the case; she then went to the West 125th Street Court, and this same Christian man swore with uplifted hand to the Almighty God that he heard me say one day on the street that he night at church, pay her the money that he night at church, and he knew that there was not a word or run himself this statement. How a man can run himself a Christian, and go before the Almighty God, with such a false statement on his lips, I can not understand."

B. DUDLEY. PRES. A. & T. COL. GREENSBORO, DEAD Well Known North Carolina Educator Is Victim Of Paralytic Stroke Greensboro, N. C.—Following a stroke of paralysis which prostrated him on Thursday, April 2, Dr. James B. Dudley, president of the Agricultural and Technical College, here died, at his home, 207 Dudley street, on Saturday night April 4, at 9:45 o'clock. The stroke to be of a mild nature, and no serious apprehension was left as to Dr. Dudley's condition until Saturday. The fatal result was a terrible shock to his friends of both races in the entire state. He recently attended a meeting in Washington, called by Commissioner of Education J. T. Jigert, at which time he was named chairman of the Election Negro Junior hand team of the Election, this latter group was to have, held in April 20, and 21. Dr. Dudley, was born in Wilmington, N. C. on November 2, 1859, receiving his first educational training through private instruction there being no public instruction for Negroes in North Carolina at that time. Later he entered the Philadelphia Institute for Colored Youths, Pennsylvania, where he gave lessons of arts degree. He showed University Raleigh, N.

College, Greensboro, sustained serious injuries when a machine in which he was riding, with four others, turned turtle twice on the road between Wilminton and Greensboro, nine miles from Durhain. The injured man was brought to the Lincoln Hospital, Durhain, for treatment. He austained a severe cut in the arm, closing great quantity of arterial blood, but his life was saved by the promptness with which he was rushed to the hospital. The other occupants of the car escaped with slight sprains and scratches. St. Paul Bricklayers Admit Race Boys To Trade School St. Paul, Minn.-Jt is reported by Fred D. McCracken, of St. Paul, that continued cold weather in Minnesota has prevented the commencement of construction work in the larger cities of the State. Norwelltheless, construction companies have begun to organize their crews for the seismic work, which, it will employ, will be the number of Nero-work jobs. In the meantime, a slight increase in the demand for Nero labor is noticeable in the Twin Cities. Through the efforts of E. A. Carter, executive secretary of the St. Paul Branch of the National Urban League, colored boys are new affiliated to the brisklaying school or trained and maintained by the St. Paul Builders' Exchange. Employers in various capacities, both domestic and industrial, are just discovering that one of the sources of present-day lack of dependability on part of their hired help is found in the prevalent gambling plague, the "numbers" game. This is due to the fact that machines give so much thought and time to schemes whereby they try to make a "hit" that they become careless and neglectful of ordinary duties. A player who does make a "hit" is even less to be depended upon, because the sudden secretion of a sum of money larger than is usually in the player's possession seems to have the effect of causing an immediate spend of money which does not permit the money is gone through a more or less direct sporting spree or through being played-back the coffers of the "numbers" banker from whom the money was gotten. In either case, the player is away from work until the money is gone. Stated that he collected $3,000 before he had to pay out a dime to a plumber, those seeking a remedy for the harmful condition of affairs suggest that ministers of the gospel, teaching churches in the community, help break up the "numbers" banker habit by public utterance by the minister and damaging effect, and certain advantage which the banker over the deluded, unwary player is being lured by the prospect of big winning under the enormous odds offered. Another suggestion on bodies making an appeal to police - The insidious urge of the same fastens itself upon the player to the degree that his mind is never satisfactorily upon his work. The result is that the employee is the officer Domestic takes, highly done by the chambermaid, the nurse or the laundrywoman, and industrial endeavors are slackened and held up by the same condition among the men. Don't Pay Their Bills Another development which gives rise to serious compliance is told of by merchants and business houses in the community, especially those purveying household necessities. The grocer, vegetable man, hatcher, dealer, and others in similar lines, declare that they are frequently besought for credit accommodation by women of the neighborhood who explain their need-for the help by saying that their husbands are playing the "numbers" and that this makes their short of ready cash. They are then referred to as "shoes merchants," by a frequent failure on part of these people to treat their obligations with anything like satisfactory regularity. In other cases, it is said, even the husbands appeal for credit accommodation and their action is based on the allegation that their wives use all of their household allowance in playing the "numbers" and so the kitchen larder is empty. The same condition, as has been told before in these columns, is responsible for a falling off of collections on furniture and their accounts calling for deferred payment. The accounts are deposited by collectors for these establishments that many of their best customers, those who were most prompt in meeting their payment have become "numbers" players and are filling further and further behind in their obligations. Banker. Always·Has Edge These players win sometimes, it is said, but their infrequent winning only serves to 'te them' the more tightly to the game. 'And in the long run all of the winning are returned to the banker’s pile to keep company with what has been given him before and what is being given him after, week by week, is paving a player $2700 on an unusually large winning, the player having put up a $5 stake, smiled pleasantly as he paid and told the player: "The only thing I ask is that you KEEP ON PLAYING." This emphasizes the fact- which should be recognized by every player—the banker always has the edge on the player. According to one source, the average win is 10 against the player. 'The really means that out of every $100 he collects he averages $0 absolutely clear. The winnings of the players, in the long run, average only $10 of each $100.

Those seeking a remedy for the harmful condition of affairs suggest that ministers of the gospel, teaching churches in the community, help break up the "numbers" taking habit by pulpit utterance, denouncing the game for its arrest and damaging effect, extinguishing the flame over the deluded, unway player who is being lured by the prospect of big winning under the enormous odds offered. Another suggestion emodies making an appeal to pulp of the municipal and other court holding jurisdiction for the infliction of severe fail sentences. Instead, nominal fines, when collectors, bargains or players are convicted. Selling "Tips".as "Numbers" It has long been a common practice to print and self advance on horse races, the tips being held on allied inside information as the condition and records of thearious horses entered in part, are racing events. Nowadays, the new tips are companioned by slips a cards containing rows of number- various combinations to be sold- players at 5 cents each for their pair, slipping the pair in the cards are on sale at the corner in stands, and displayed as conspicu- as the most recent issue of the daily, weekly or monthly reading journals. Many of the police officers are scientific in performance of the duty and do not hesitate to make rests whenever there is any indication of law violation in "number playing of any, other form of illegal activity, but the charge is made that the bankers and runners and so do take proper action to prevent law violation. In fact, say some familiar with conditions, some of the others themselves are red-hot "number-players, and sometimes they put their own money, but at other times they simply give in a number and force the runner to play it with the runner's own money. Of the other cases, the bankers may "come out" the banker may pass even though the original bet was never paid in. This action the baker, as a nice submits to philosophically, but with reluctance. The tremendous product actually accruing him to stand that sort occasionally, so the sticks to it. The peole will play, and if he does take their money somebody else else will "So what's the use of, letting it go away," said he; "I'm as much entitled to get the benefit of the bob-money as anybody else and so when they stop paying guess I still buy the money, and paying out only about $30 out of every $600, and that stilkes me as being pretty soft.

A Negro Poet and the White North Carolinians A Negro Poet and the White North Carolinians Editor of The New York Age: Editor of the The enclosed communication is a duplicate of the one sent to the Daily News (Cincinnati, N. C.) in regard to Contee Cullen My reason for writing and sending the information to the News was to let its white readers know that they sometime feast intellectually upon the products of the mind and genius of the Negro, unknowingly. CHAS H MOORE Greensboro, N.C. Editor The Daily News. Editor When Professor Geo. W. Carver, the noted scientist of Tuskegee Institute, was in North Carolina, during the latter part of January, lecturing on the peanut, potato and Alabama clay, before the faculty and student bodies of some of the leading schools for the whites in the State, of his lecture at Guilford College it was said in a dispatch to the Daily News that, "the. (Dr. Carver) gave the students of Guilford College ample proof that the Negro when educated is a highly capable race." Such an acknowledgement and appreciation is very great joy to some of us, who have been accustomed to hear, not infrequently, in the recent past the uncharitable indictment that "education not only makes the Negro lazy, but vicious." February 15th there was printed in the Daily News the following lines: as a tribute to the famous English short story writer, who lately died, Joseph Conrad: Epitaph for Joseph Conrad Not of the dust, but of the wave His final couch should be: They lie not easy in a grave Who once knew the sea How earth's meester bed onthrall The hardest steaman of them all P. Cullen in Harper's When we saw it, we wondered to ourselves how many of the readers of the News know that the author of the above epitaph is a Negro Counter Cullen is not only a Negro, but he was the only colored contestant in a poetry contest conducted among the undergraduate students in some of the best colleges, in the country Cullen won the second prize in this contest, $200, two years in succession. He is now in the senior class, New York University. All of which (the above) go to prove that, when given a chance there are no limits to the possibilities of the grey matter in a Negro's cranium anymore than there is in any other human being.

MISSON VENEREAL DISEASES: Destroyers Of Health and Wealth The Cost In Money By the United States Public Health Service "Stand and deliver" has been the common phrase of travellers and highwaymen, since the days of Robin Hood and his daring band. There are thieves, however, who dare not come out into the open, but who steal the property of others through trickery, misrepresentation and fraud. In this class belong the two age-old diseases of syphilis and hernia. Named by indulgent society, by ignorance, and by suppression of the facts through false prudery, wongreal diseases have been binged men, women and children of health and wealth from the days of earliest history, down-to, the present time. Right now the situation and saying in effect "stand and deliver." Just how much do venereal diseases cost the country and the individual? It is, of course, impossible to give an exact answer or, even an accurate estimate, but the bill is known to be enormous. In the six years mentioned above that venereal diseases have caused an economic loss to the United States of $-280,000,000; and this total completely ignores many of the losses caused by syphilis and gonorrhea. This represents a drain of $25 upon every man, woman and child in the country—a drain that is felt by the healthy and the unhealthy, and it has been established that paresis and other forms of mental disorders brought on by syphilis have been responsible for many accidents in the commercial and industrial world. The case is told of a taxi-cab, driver who had figured in many collisions sometimes injuring his victims, very severely. On examination a physician used a fluid tincture to and be suffering from general paralysis of the insane. Partly because of this drain upon the resources of the country—a burden that falls upon the shoulders of all alike—the United States Public Health Service is conducting a campaign of education against veneral diseases. Through the Division of general Diseases the Public Health Service is conducting a dead truths that syphilis and gonorrhea are unnecessary afflictions which may be both prevented and cured. Already employers and employees are realizing the loss caused by veneral diseases in all walks of life, and are exuding a desire to join forces against the common enemy. The money cost of veneral diseases is 'staggering', but it is not the only cost. Every year syphilis and gonorrhea infect the mother and the health worker often take life itself. In a following article of this series, a glimpse will be given of the physical effects of veneral disease.

Tobacco Growing Urged On Maryland Colored Farmers Tobacco Growing Urged On Maryland Colored Farmers Ridge, Md.-Education for black and white alike which would show farmers how to improve the soil instead of bleeding it to death, how to work with and for each other in order that all might have a comfortable income and better living conditions, was emphasized by officers of the Tobacco Growers' Association of Southern Maryland at a meeting held at the Cardinal Gibbons Institute, here, a Catholic school for colored youth, of which Victor Daniel is principal. Joseph Mattingly, president, Dr. Burch, vice president; and G. Gardner, secretary and manager, were the speakers. The meeting was prominent to interest colored farmers in tobacco growing and cooperative marketing. Principal Daniel welcomed the visitors and irls of the institute served dinner to fifteen officers of the association. A pre-Health Week Campaign conducted through the English and science classes was effective and won response from the community Dr. Aaron 'Russel of Washington will conduct dental clinics and Principal Daniel has offered a silver cup for the cleanest and the most attractive backswells and outside lavatories. Posters at the church, parochial school, stores postoffice and institute have attracted much attention. An increase in the number of white children attending neighboring school has been attributed to the influence of the Cardinal Gibbons Institute. Do you want to rent your room?

Tuskegee Association Observes Founders' Day The Tukkegee Association of New York observed Founders Day in memory of the late Booker T. Washington at Meditropolitan Baptist Church at 4 o'clock Palm Sunday afternoon. Dr. Henry Hugh Prector, pastor of the Nazarete Congregational Church, Brooklyn, was the original speaker. Dr. Procter said in substances: "Booker T. Washington was a greater man than George, Washington or Abraham Lincoln because Booker T. Washington arose to a greater height from a lower stage either of the former or the latter. Washington felt to the uplift of the negro—his body, mind, heart, intelligence, all that he had for his race. "His aim to solve the race problem was tiy interracial cooperation. He was great as a leader. I know of a man who aspires to be a great leader but this man finds fault with the religion of the Negro. The chief element of Booker T. Washington was his religion. While I was the late Dr. Washington, I walked into his private office and there I saw his Bible on the table, I picked it up and opened it. On the fly leaf I read, "Thy Word have I hid in my heart that I might not sin against thee." They were in Dr. Washington's hand writing and it was his motto. "The best way to judge men is by the depth from whence they came, the heights to which they ascend, and the service that they render mankind, and the manhood of manhood. Brilliance may get a man up but only character can keep him up. "Almost any Negro leader can make a big speech but not every one of them can cash in on his talk. Dr. Washington turned his addresses into addresses, and erected a great indoors hall in which is made a streak of lighting. It is a city to which people come from all parts of the world to study its ideals, and educators, members of the press and business men visit the institution almost every day to study the idea of former founder of Tuskegee and make use of them in the way under whatever name that they choose to call Robert Fansy president of the Tuskegee Association, was the master of ceremonies. Opening remarks were made by Mrs W. J. Matthews, who is a volunteer worker with the committee to drive raise New York's $50,000 for the $50,000 Harrison-Tuskegee Fund with headquarters in the West Yard of W. W. C. building Mrs Nellie G.

WOMAN'S REALM IN CURRENT TOPICS Edited By MAYBELLE McADOO According to Judge Jean Norris, presiding in the Women's Day-Court, contained in that draughtile of red brick buildings at Teenth street and Sixth avenue, Harlem is fiddling while the young-colored girl goes to perdition. Those are not the Judge's explicit words, but the substance of them, in an interview granted the writer by Judge-Norris in her Chambers at the Woman's Day-Court on Friday, after an introduction by Miss Smith, Probation Officer in that court. The Judge indicated that the colored race is asleep at the switch while danger signals flash all around its girl child. "Handicapped at the start," was the way she referred to the colored delinquent. But let's go back a bit. First, you will want to know something of a woman who holds in her keeping the fate of thousands of women of all nationalities. Women judges are such a recent acquisition to the courts that they are still interesting. Men are time worn. Judge Norris immediately impresses you as knowing her business and helping at it. She is every inch "The Judge." That she is entirely feminine was evidenced by a clue grey ensemble with matching suede pumps and stockings. On the bench, over her grey frock, she wore the regulation judges' gown. Her brown half is unbound and worn under a net. Her voice is soft and pleasant in conversation, but I imagine she can send a guilty offender to jail without the quiver of an eyelash. Eyes that are large and blue look at you steadily through a pair of nose glasses. They do not emit sparks, and girls, white or colored, would feel encouraged to give her their confidence. There is nothing hard boiled or masculine about Judge Norris, and her manner and tone were sympathetic to a large degree when speaking of the young colored girl, in whose welfare she shows a deep concern. In reply to my question as to causes bringing the colored girl into court, the Judge said she would prefer to answer direct questions rather than generalize. Finally we hit a stride when I stated that Miss Smith, the Probation Officer, and by way, a member of the Board of Katy Ferguson Home—had already told me that in her judgment one frequent cause for the young colored girl finding herself in trouble was the lack of proper housing facilities, homes or shelters, affording the girl a wholesome environment with good food, the privilege of doing small things for herself such as pressing, etc., at a moderate cost. Rooming houses or often furnish the wrong environment; they are now about the only shelter offered the working color girl coming into New York (I couldn't contradict Miss Smith as even the "Y" hasn't a dormitory at present). Judge Norris then took up the thread with vigor by saying, "You have rich colored people; they should establish homes and respectable houses where a girl may get wholesome food without a large amount of money. You should have here a colored social worker who would take an active interest in the welfare of your girl; visit in her home, and take her out o. her environment if it is a wrong one. There should be a well authenticated list of exceedingly respectable homes which would give her board, lodging, and a chance for recreation at a moderate charge. The social worker should have the interest of the girl at heart. "The colored girl lacks the right interest from her people both in and out of court." The Judge said with a snap, "YOUR CARARETS AND DANCE HAILS SHOULD BL SUPERVISLD "Your little colored girl likes to dance, she wants recreation. For some reason it seems she is not judged by the same standard of morals as others. She is taken advantage of. "The number of colored girls brought before me is growing larger "Your churches could do an enormous amount of good" She further stated that there are white social workers, Protestant, Catholic and Hebrew, supplementing the efforts of the probation officers in behalf of white girls, but the colored girl is devoid of this interest. (Mrs. Deaver, employed by the Church Mission of Help, was formerly the colored worker in this court but is now elsewhere. These workers are maintained by private contribution and not by the city) I asked the Judge if the white homes providing for the delinquent would take the colored girl. She replied that these places are very limited in accommodation; that they are maintained by individual contributions; that the girls shared rooms and a common table for meals, and as a rule the colored girl was not sent to them. The Katy, Ferguson functions solely for the colored girl, but Judge Norris said she understood it was more for the young unmarried mother. Its accommodation is also quite limited. Judge Norris said she had an intense sympathy for the young colored girl, and proved her sincerity by saying she would appear in person before any representative group of colored people selected by the Editor of The Age, and talk on the lines suggested by this interview Build a bridge at the top of the precipice and you won't need an ambulance at the bottom for the battered soul of your girl, is the way I would sum up "Nero fiddled while Rome floridated."

The position taken by President Coolidge was briefly defined in a Washington dispatch to the Baltimore Sun. as follows: How far, the practice of Federal enforcement should go in the effort to make the prohibition amendment a matter of fact as well as of law formed the subject of an article in the Literary Digest of last week. The position taken by President Coolidge was briefly defined in a Washington dispatch to the Baltimore Sun, as follows: Federal Prohibition enforcement should be directed primarily toward damming the numerous sources of liquor supply. Municipal and State authorities, given joint authority with the United States government, under the Eighteenth Amendment, in making the country dry, should look after the individual bootleger and those engaged in the distribution of alcoholic beverages within city and State lines. Sitch a division of authority, in the opinion of President Coolidge, is necessary to make Prohibition effective. The only governor of a Southern State who is quoted as opposed to the extension of the Federal power in the attempt to enforce prohibition within the States is Governor Ritchie of Maryland, who is quoted as follows: The only governor of a Southern State who is quoted as opposed to the extension of the Federal power in the attempt to enforce prohibition within the States is Governor Ritchie of Maryland, who is quoted as follows: "My own opinion has always been that the Volstead law constitutes a departure from the American principle that Federal invasion of the rights of the States is destructive of our form of government and I think that Congress should turn the subject back to the States, that each State, within constitutional limitations, may be given the opportunity of settling it in accordance with the wants and needs of its own people." This is sound and logical ground for an exponent of the time honored Southern doctrine of State rights to take, but all the Southern governors were not so consistent. Governor McLeod of South Carolina did not agree with the opinion that local prohibition enforcement is entirely the responsibility of State and city authorities. He believed that "the Federal force should be increased rather than diminished." Governor Fields of Kentucky declared that "the people of each community are entitled to the services of both State of Federal officers in the enforcement of the prohibition laws." Mayor Sims of Atlanta reported that the city of Atlanta and the State of Georgia "need the aid of Federal government authorities to cope with the situation." From Alabama, Governor Brandon wired that his State is cooperating with the Federal authorities and enforcing the dry laws, but he added, "it will require, in my opinion, all agencies, cooperating to enforce these laws." Other officials of Southern States and cities appear to have preserved a discreet silence on the matter of Federal intervention in the enforcement of the Eighteenth amendment. Enough have been quoted, however, to show that there exists a considerable sentiment in favor of shifting the burden of enforcement upon the national government. If the State and municipal authorities of the South believe that it is the duty and responsibility of the Federal government to enforce the Eighteenth amendment, it would be equally logical for them to admit and consent to a similar responsibility in the enforcement of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth amendments. But consistency is too much to expect from Southern officials of any degree, when the rights of the Negro are concerned. If the Federal government is bound to enforce the Eighteenth amendment to the Federal constitution, it is equally obligated to enforce the Fourteenth and Fifteenth amendments.

DISCRIMINATION IN DEPOSITS The United Electro Light and Power Company, having its principal office at 130 East 16th street, is engaged in the supply of electro current to consumers in the Harlem district. It has a branch office at 14th street and Broadway, where applicants for its service are required to file their applications and a point to secure the payment of their bill is requested. In the matter of deposits, there appears to be a peculiar kind of discrimination, not based on the financial responsibility of the applicant but rather, on the ground of race or color. The United Electric Light and Power Company, having its principal office at 130 East 16th street, is engaged in the supply of electric current to consumers in the Harlem district. It has a branch office at 140th street and Broadway, where applicants for its service are required to file their applications and are poised to secure the payment of their bill as requested. In the matter of deposits, there appears to be a peculiar kind of discrimination, not based on the financial responsibility of the applicant but rather, on the ground of race or color. An example of the working of this discrimination was afforded in the case of an applicant whose complexion was so fair, that he was evidently classed as white. His reference was pronounced satisfactory and when he offered to make a deposit he was assured that it was necessary. When it was later ascertained that the premiss that he proposed to occupy were rented to colored tenants, the connection of his meter was le- ferred and he was notified that a deposit of ten dollars was required. He went again to the branch office and offered ten dollars as deposit, but the clerk in making out his receipt wrote it for five again being misled by his fair complexion, as a darker applicant who followed him was required to put up ten dollars. The company still delayed turning on the current, and upon inquiry by telephone, he was notified that he should have made a deposit of ten dollars, despite the fact that he held a receipt for five. The practice of the company appears to be to require the larger sum from applicants occupying apartments rented to colored tenants, whereas white tenants are only required to deposit half the amount or relieved from making any deposit at all. It may be accepted as legitimate financial policy that the company is justified in requiring a deposit from applicants, sufficient to cover cost of current that might, be supplied until the bill was rendered and paid. But the amount of this deposit should be regulated by the capacity of the meter and the financial standing of the customer. Economic conditions such as these should not be gauged by the color or race of the customer. The United Electric Light and Power Company is working on a wrong principle, if it authorizes any such discrimination as that practiced at its 146th street branch. It should promptly put an end to such a vicious practice and base its deposit system solely on economic grounds. COL. LITTLE'S RESIGNATION It is with regret that we have learned upon good authority that Col. Arthur Little has forwarded, through the proper military channels, his resignation as colonel of the 369th Regiment of the New York National Guard. There is necessity for the most serious consideration of this matter before this resignation is finally accepted. Col. Little has given largely of his time and strength to the building up of the regiment and in placing it in a permanent home of its own. It will be hard to get another man of his broadness of character and fairness of views to carry out the plans for the future growth of the organization, which he has outlined. It is within the power of Governor Smith and the Adjutant General of the State to refuse to accept this resignation for the good of the service, if the welfare of the regiment seems likely to suffer from such a severance of relations. It would be well for our citizens who have the good of the regiment at heart to make themselves heard in this emergency. The best interest of the regiment demand the retention of its present commander. It is with regret that we have learned upon good authority that Col.

EDITOR DAVIS TAKES TO HUMOR Editor Benjamin Jefferson Davis of the Atlanta Independent has taken to humor, if we may credit his own confession, which appeared in the last March issue of his paper.

He thought that The Age misSED the point of an introduction of crossword puzzles for its readers, which was done in this fashion: In instituting the cross word puzzles in the Independent, the management does so with the view of helping readers educationally, and if they prove harmful or if anyone goes insane attempting to solve them, the management will be only too glad to recommend a first-class insane asylum to prospects upon request. Realizing the danger that such a serious member of the Negro press as Editor Davis incurred; if this little indiscretion were to be treated as delivered in a jocose spirit, The Age affected to regard it as uttered in deadly earnest, as all previous deliverances of the Georgia editor have been received. Editor Davis must realize the penalty of greatness is always to be serious. Homer must not hod, no matter how sleepy There have been certain public men like the late "Sunset" Cox of New York and the later John Sharp Williams of Mississippi, who achieved reputations as wits and humorists in Congress, but they were not taken seriously when important legislation was involved, although they possessed real ability as statesmen. It was the reputation of Editor Davis as a serious writer, dealing with such weighty subjects as "Negroes and Greeks." "The Christian Ministry," the various intricacies of Georgia politics and the relations of Henry Lincoln Johnson thereto, that we had in mind. We could not afford to accept any utterance of Editor Davis as humorous, with such issues at stake. But he would not have it so.

Reproducing the clipping from The Age, he said The above clipping taken from the editorial columns of The New York Age proves conclusively that the Age misses the point of humor injected into our little news story. The Independent extremely regrets that it did not parenthetically write "humor" into its news story for the benefit of the Age. The Independent does not believe that any of its readers, with the exception of the Age editor, missed the point of humor so plainly injected. For the benefit of the Age, in the future we will be glad to send him explanations of humorous points injected in our news stories. The Independent has no fear of any of its readers, the point of humor as an unfavorable reflection of them, the Age to the contrary notwithstanding. As to any other additions to the Trade, indent that the Age may not feel to be worth while, we would say that they are working mighty not for the Independent, and if the Age editor were good enough to see a point of humor he might be good enough to adopt some. We have to mourn the crashing of another ideal. If Editor Davis is bent on injecting humourous points into the variegated emanations of his weighty intellect. We have no choice but to acquiesce in his determination and to accept his humor as intentional, elephantine though it may be. EXALTED RULER OF THE ELKS. The amicable settlement of the recent differences between a local lodge of Elks and the head of the national organization has directed considerable attention to the marvelous development of its order during the past few years. Although the Independent Benevolent Protective Order of Elks of the World is of comparatively recent establishment, its growth, has been rapid as well as substantial. The increase of membership this year is announced as reaching seven hundred members. The development of the order has not been confined to the Northern States, but it has spread largely in the South and even extended its branches into South America. The character of the membership has been kept at a high level, the local lodges adding to their membership from the more intelligent and educated classes of the community. Even members of the ministry have been attracted to the order, bishop and pastors being included among those enrolled. Much of the credit for this improvement in the standing of the order is to be given to the present head of the organization, J. Finley Wilson, who wears the title of Grand Exalted Ruler. During the two terms that he has been chosen in that capacity, he has demonstrated his ability as an organizer, the order having grown steadily stronger, financially and numerically. As a competent administrator of the affairs of the order Mr. Wilson has met the expectations of his supporters and refuted the fears of his opponents. A further revelation of his ability is looked for in the development of certain plans looking toward the expansion of some business in connection with the organization. As Mr. Wilson is a veteran newspaper man, it is a source of gratification to his fellow members of the press to testify to his success as the administrator of a great and growing fraternal order. HAPPENINGS OF SIXTY YEARS AGO An old friend and reader of The Age, who is a living mine of information on historical and other subjects, writes to call our attention to some pertinent facts associated with the month of April some sixty years ago. Among other things he said: On April 12, 1865, the Confederate General, Robert E. Lee, and his army of twenty eight thousand men, having been surrounded by Grant, surrendered to the Union commander, thus ending the War of the Rebellion. Page, in his life of Lee, mentions Steadman's Negro troops as a part of the force that helped to corner the Confederate army. There were one hundred and seventy-eight thousand colored troops in the Federal army in the Civil War who fought for their country. The Civil War was changed the status of the Negro, as a race, from that of chattel property to a person with individuality, and marked the beginning of the upward struggle toward a firm standing, morally, educationally and economically. Tending to refute the misconception of some ill informed writers, who affect to regard the Negro in this country as a foreign element, our correspondent asked the questions, "Who introduced slavery into the Western Hemisphere?" "How long have we been here? before or after the F. F. V. S?" He answered these questions by quoting John Boyd Thatcher's "History of Christopher Columbus", from which he concluded that the Roman Catholic Church introduced Negro slavery into the Western Hemisphere in 1501, when there were Negro slaves in Hispaniola. He further said that, in "Old Virginia and Her Neighbors," by John Fiske, we are told that the Spanish settled at Jamestown, Va., in the year 1526, over ninety years before the date given in most histories, 1620, as marking the first landing of blacks. The name of the settlement was then San Miguel. It was Pope Alexander VI who gave Cardinal Ximenes and Archbishop Lastas their authority to bring over the slaves. The other important happening referred to by our correspondent was the Massacre of Fort Pillow, which took place a year previous to Lee's surrender, on April 12, 1864. General-Nathan B. Forrest attacked the fort with a Confederate force of five thousand men. Fort Pillow was located seventy miles above Memphis and was garrisoned by five hundred, Union troops, half of whom were white and half colored. After their surrender these troops, both black and white, were indiscriminately massacred by Forrest's attacking forces. For a graphic description of this massacre, we are referred to Greeley's "American Conflict." Forest after the war became the organizer and head of the original Ku Klux Klan. A former member of the Harding cabinet landed him as the greatest military leader of the Civil War. The point of reviving these events of sixty years ago, according to our correspondent, is because the copperhead snake that gave so much trouble at that time, is still alive today. Although its head was badly crushed in tail still wiggles, and it is now better known as the "Nordic" reptile. Its latest manifestations have taken the form of an unwary ranted attack on Hampton Institute by a Virginia editor and a relapse into barbarianism in the same State. In the form of a mob outbreak, which transformed the county of Sussex into the abiding place of two thousand murderers. The happenings of sixty years ago are not without their hearing on the conditions of today. It would be well for the race to stop a while and study the history of the past in order to solve the lesson of the present. Comments By The Age Editors On Sayings of Other Editors As a striking instance of the truth of the old adage that "chickens come home to roast," the Indianapolis Freeman cited the case of the law against the transportation of fight films from one State into another. It said; This law against the transporting of fight films from one state to another was of popular favor among fight promotors, and law enforcing officials as long as John Arthur Johnson occupied the heavyweight throne, but the moment Johnson handed the crown to big Jess Willard, the dumb cowboy from Kansas, things became a matter of whether he would be eliminated from the fight game the populace evinced a desire to see their favorites in action via the motion picture course. There now was, money to be made and the fight promoters saw no good reason why it should not be harvested while the crop was good. A few days ago George (Tex) Rickard, premier fight promoter, whose protecting arm is keeping Jack Dempsey from the churches of the Brown Panther, Harry Wilks, and four of his codefendants in Federal court in New York, charged with conspiracy to violate the law to transport prize fight films illegally were found guilty. The salient feature of the whole proceedings is the race who sought to rob another of a little petty honor was forced to swallow a dose of its own medicine; Johnson is almost forgotten by the public, but law to keep his fight precess from being shown to members of his own group is still operating to send its enactors to prison or heavy fines. The film law violators were heavily fined in this case, which was the logical penalty for their offense. This is only one of the instances where a law conceived in prejudice has worked to plague its promoters. The editor of the Richmond Puncher having read of the students' strike at Fisk University, coupled it with another strike at a small college in Florida and after asking "what is the trouble?" sapently answered his own question as follows. The causes of these strikes hark back to the method of discipline required of the student body Is the present growth of free expression and democracy too early to be assimilated by the student body in an orderly manner or is this the work of a few smart ones who desire to have things their own way. We ponder to question. But whatever it is, we feel that this is a dangerous showing for college students to make. You men and women who cannot adjust themselves to the moral and social requirements of college life cannot hope to adjust themselves to every day life in a world where certain things are required. Each school has its catalog containing the requirements of that institution. Parents and students read them without any serious thought and then, the applicant enters the institution breaks the written law and when he is brought to question the institution and student to up the antepost. This You ladies but the loss and effect is irreparable. Evidently the Richmond editor has not been able to appreciate the issues at stake in the students strike at Fisk University. He should inform himself more fully in the matter and "ponder to question" further Referring to the increase of pay for postal employees granted by the last Congress, the Savannah Journal noted the consequence to the public as more postage. It said Congress, as last has recognized the underpaid postal employee, and the President approves. Thousands of persons on Uncle Sams mail service are receiving Better pay makes higher hearts and greater efficiency. At least it is to be hoped that such results will follow. If so, we all may benefit, for nearly every person uses every class of mail service either directly or indirectly. Apparently the distribution of the increased rates is fairly well made among the four general classes of mail, including parcel post, escaping order on the best class which are not affected. But any scale of rates that goes upward in afflicts all of the people should be cautiously imputed with and carefully adjusted for once up at hand to bring down. The increase of postage rates is only in line with the increased cost of nearly all modern utilities. The only thing about it that justifies the increase is that it will help to lighten the burden of a depreciating group of government employees, which includes many of our race. The Nadside College published a letter written by W. H. Perry, S. of Louisville, Ky., in a letter to McKenzie of Fish University, who showed what one undignified part of all of the latter's conduct Mr. Perry said. The outrage perpetrated by you upon Victor Kent Pers and the other young men jailed by you under the charge of accusing you to rob process your unworthyest to remain as the head of your institution to Fisk University, dedicated to the surface property training, and guidance of the south of the race for love of service and usefulness to their followers. Your subsequent action of endeavouring to heal and the healing by including you in the community of the south of the race for love of service and usefulness to your shoulders and desiring to matters of people, truth and justice, is unlawful and unacceptable. You are guilty of the crime in shoulders. It is my sincere hope and taint The Age Readers' Forum of many well informed, self-respecting parents and friends of Fisk University, that your successor may be specially selected, and a president for Fisk obtained who will restore Fisk University to an honored and honorable place in the heart of my people. No parent can feel safe with his boy or girl on Fisk while you are president. Therefore I have obtained honorable dismissal for my two children, Victor Kent and Sasa Augusta, all who were planning upon a happy celebration of an end; graduate from Fisk, Victor Kent. I am into that many other parents have done. I wise. The situation is deplorable, and I cannot—a great wrong has been done, we should be promptly and properly rectified. This presentation of the view-point of the parents of the Fisk students is another reason why the institution should have a new president. The Norfolk Journal and Guide made not of a "new wrinkle in mobbery" in the recent relapse into barbarism at Waverley, Va. It said: The Sussex county delegation furnished adherents of lynch law something new in the technique of evading apprehension by removing the scant remains of its victim into another county, beyond the jurisdiction of its own coroner, legally blocking even the possibility of any effective grand jury action; and the neighboring county, not only properly obliged, aided in betrayal by the lynchmen, but byurying the remains as soon as they were found, after the usual formality of pronouncing that the man who was hanged, shot and burned came to his death at the hands of parties unknown. All of which was unnecessary. The Sussex county coroner would have done same thing to the other plus plainly visible text can attribute to him citizens for the removal of the remains to Objectionable Propaganda Should Be Eliminated Objectionable Propaganda Should Be Eliminated Editor of The New York Age: Let us eliminate this northern and southern question—the prejudice of one section against another—from public meetings and national organizations, if we do not want to impair their usefulness. Recently, through the courtesy of the president of the Trenton Branch of the N A A C P I was appointed chairman of one of the several committees of that branch, the entertainment committee. The meeting in question was held on Friday evening, April 3, at a small church called John Wesley, whose minister in charge is a Rev. Wendler. Wendler was a former member of the more recent 125. After preliminaries, prior to the address of the principal speaker of the evening Rev. Mr Wendler was called upon to make a brief talk in which he declared that the attitude of the northern Negro and those of fair complexion was to feel themselves superior to others of their race. Now, as I interpret the objects of the N A A C P I, their meetings are community meetings. The people are gathered together for a common purpose. First, to suppress lynching and lawlessness throughout the country and, secondly to see that the different groups throughout the country get justice in the courts of the land. Strongs to such cities such as Rev. Wendler found disclaiming the place of their birth and in some cases female members of their families powder to a thick reputation. In my organization, the voting of people to one's home or a public meeting and then insulting them should be condemned. He wrote of this article was born in Trenton and her late father and mother Mr. and Mrs. Mansfield Herbert, lived in Trenton for over 75 years. Her sisters were graduated from Trenton school. I am conjuncting the Trenton School on Designing and Dressmaking for our purpose as a model where any girl from either the North or South may feel she is the best model in designing and designing. Thus I am doing not just the development of the long form of selections and I would suggest to the good of all concerned that reflectons upon the northern Negro and that of fair complexion be eliminated for the good of all concerned. At the conclusion of Rev. Wendler's talk it developed that he had not paid a membership in the Trenton Branch of the N A A C P, nor had he attended the general meetings since he became a resident of Trenton. Where it is the first time talk of this subject I would cheerfully let it pass. But at a church in Lampton street this subject was a plastic for demonstration that it was imbued for some of those present. This kind of thing is creating more prepare within the time. (Mrs. A. M. N. S. L. K. M. P. Trenton, N. J.) "The Son of Satan Should Be Suppressed "The Son of Satan Should Be Suppressed I do not like New York. There are some things that should be impressed by S. E. Grant. I once I was born, or shortly after, I have been travelling in this country. I have been impressed by the things I had never seen. I have been impressed by the things that I have seen, not the particular one heard of the I have seen that I have seen at the Rose Garden. I have seen in the Son of Satan in the Negroes of New York or preclitatively is that they heard Governor Trinkle was on his way to Waverly to make an inspection and they wanted to clean up the public square before they were there. The responsibility for creating two thousand first degree murders now large in Sussex county is placed on "the growing intolerance, formed by various societies and groups trying to be operating in the name of emergency." This points toward the Klan and the Anglo-Saxon Cult. A probable exodus from Ipswich is the signs of the times in the Florida Sentinel of Jacksonville. It said: There is much talk of an exodus from this City and State during the summer. If as many people leave expressed their intentions of doing Jacksonville and Florida will now be desirable citizens. This desire is part of the part of many people by the wave of crime which swept our city and by the creeping threads of trouble between the regions which occur often and for anything groves in Jacksonville have recently experienced a very trying time. This item was placed the responsibility for the crimes of individuals who may not have been Negroes, and crimes which they had nothing to do with. These frequent threats of trouble and the continued placing of the blame on one man's orme upon the whole race in this city have so thoroughly degraded so many of our people their morale and desire to live in the city have weakened. This is natural. Men and women to the city feel that they have no place where they feel that they have no protection before the law and where punishment is ever done to make the city worsening in. Here is a big fault of Jacksonville; very little effort is made to make this a decent place for Negroes to live in. The City government is constantly making improvements, but in their program of improvement they seldom or never include the Negro citizens who form at least forty per cent of the population here and pay, directly or indirectly a proportionate amount of taxes. This gives in brief but clear language easily understood reasons why Negroes continue to leave the South. Think of two-fifths of the population of a city like Jacksonville who are completely ignored in the program of city improvements, besides being denied protection before the law. any other place in the country we stand for and appreciate a picture of that kind then I must say that they are not progressing, they are going backward instead of forward. In the first place it is degrading all the way through. They show the white man the Negro shooter deep into show the white man what the white man womankind; they carry the Color Queue to the limit. They have no hooks and no apples. In my mind, not being a professional critic, it is a good deal worse than "The Birth of a Nation." They have supposedly white men blacking their faces appearing as Negroes, going out holding up and insulting white women, making it appear as they they are Negroes. They imitate race riots; they create bitter feeling; and bring on a new thought to the white man which is hurtful where it wouldn't have entered by mind. This picture brings in the black Klux Klan to frighten and degrade the Negro, notwithstanding these approbate with Negroes who are of all color with the faces in this picture. In the Negroes of New York, another part of the country where the picture may eventually be shown can appreciate such a picture, then I am sure that we are going backward instead of forward. There are thousands of intelligent colored men throughout the country; clergymen, doctors and lawyers, and other professional and non-professional as they must at times cater to the present class of people, but I would not to the extent that they must dunn their souls to the white man. The Negroes of New York are I know, intelligent, and believe in you. This picture is just a verse. I see many things to be produced that a degrading to our own people and make us just what the white man thinks we are? Because "The Birth of a Nation" tended to show up the Negro's degraded race it was opposed as festually banned. It was pro- by white men. This play, "The of Satan," written and produc- colled men, is just as degraded objectionable as "The Birth of nation," and should be just as condemned. Commends A Brave Officer Editor of the New York Age In your issue of March 28, 1911 of the cool-headed and courage- tion of a colored traffic officer not to be bullied by white faces forming his duty This officer deerves much credit is only one of the few colored who know their duty and do not its performance, regardless of position. The sentence is only one of the everyday happenings between a pedestrians and men who are pa- see that the laws are enforced, and themselves, instead of showing aliched and violate them beac- t their power.

THOMPSON Philadelphia, Pa. After two years of driving to deviate from the old system of each club employing their own empires, which naturally existed when the club was operating within the Commissio, the Commission of the Eastern Colored League passed a ruling that all materially effect the umpire situation in the fast appaching season, taking their cue from the world's series played last October, between the Kansas City Monarchs and Hilldale, when a corps of effluent, neutral, even anti-communist, officials from the Eastern officials to work the games in Philadelphia and Baltimore. Not one of the club owners knew how the umpires would be stationed until a list was handed the announcer just prior to the start of each game. Being experienced and working on their own record, the umpires ran the games with the assurance of dissatisfaction from other side. The plan to be put into effect for the season will follow along those lines, except for the fact that a neutral Supervisor of Umpires is essential to rotate and handle the umpires. For this position the Commissioners have secured Bill Dallas one of Philadelphia's most experienced men in this particular line with ballroom, but all lines of sport, Dallas has served in this capacity for a score of baseball and basketball leagues. During the 1924 baseball season, Dallas handled the "umph's" for the Pennersey League and has just wound up the affairs for the whistle towers in the Philadelphia Basketball League. A frequent change of umpires at the respective parks should act as a one-time switch, especially with the system to be put into effect that will prevent the club owners from knowing the identity of the umpires prior to game time. Of course the Commissioners will formulate rules governing the relations of umpires and players, will impose fines, and if found necessary will make changes in the personnel of the umpire force. Col. Strothers to Improve Giants Up Harrisonburg way things will be different, so comes a red hot tip from Col. Strothers. The colonel is a big man in baseball and for that matter the corpulent one would still be a big man, even if he started a budget circuit. However, the fact remains that things didn't go to suit the colonel during his initial year in organized ball and the Harrisonburg lead is bent on having his Capitol City crew make the grade during his tenure. Newly faced faces will grace the roster of the Giants and some old one will have to look for the fortnightly "stipend" outside the Strawberry street temporary Edgar Wesley, Hen Jordan, Rodgers and Russell have been informed that relations are fins between them and the Harrisonburg clan, Wesley, an experienced first baseman, who came to Harrisonburg from Detroit. He is expected of him. Hen Jordan, the local boy, is rated as one of the best backstops in the Eastern circuit, and his release comes as quite a surprise. However the colonel advanced the information that Jordan repeatedly infiltrated on training rules and was included to be very obsolute. There is little likelihood of Jordan leaving his home town are the season rolls pass in would have been a lot easier to live in, act and buckle the harness on Jordan's sturdy frame Rogers and Russell, both infiltrers, were round wanting in ability. To fill Jordan's shoes, the colonel has secured "Texas" Burnett from the Lincoln Gate, and Charlie Thomas, one of the original Baltimore Black Sox will help share the catching birdman of the 11-missed Grays will guard the initial stack. This boy should be an improvement over Wesley, who health has been a problem again when he last season. Dick Jackson, who finished, the season as second base will be back, and George Fail will again fill in the short field. At third base, which was a constant problem last season, the colonel has attempted to put his mind at ease by grabbing Bobby Dean from Scheretzady, N. Y., Bobby grabbed many a tractor drive Chippee Johnson, last season and in the air. Reprint Chippee die in the air. The colony may be better at tackling the hot corner is concerned. A hit improvement could be made in the flyers who form the second defense for tow, Harrison Town, if he held and throw are better. That is what that to make up a reason to tender, and the colony配合 on "Tack Jews," Rap Dixn and Manager Charlton can do these things and do them well, hence Harryburg men's stand. The men of the colony that is not getting the colder much concern and the same array of box talent will do them stuff Daly Cooper, Charlie Coucht "Pung" Gardner, Charlie Henry and "Nick" Carter will measure up well with any staff in the circuit. However, since one of the men mentioned are starved fingers, Bill Constantine, who serves them up from the left side, has been added to give the staff a greater variety. With the Hildale Club chalking up two straight wins the Colonel is perfectly satisfied for Pennsylvania to show the way, but feels that it is time far the other Keystone State. entry to born-in for the premier historians. PHILADELPHIA PROFESSIONALS NOSE OUT LINCOLN GIANTS IN 10th INNING WHILE THE CAMDEN NINE BLANKED THE GIANTS Some mid-season baseball was witted by about 4000 fans at Protectory Oval on Sunday afternoon, April 5, when the Philadelphia Professionals nosed out the Lincoln Giants, 7-6 in a ten mining contest. The local team started off with a three run lead and it looked as though the Philadelphia team was winning until the eighth innight when Philadelphia tied the score at 4-4. Curry bot the Detroit Tigers who was formed out last season to the Bangtonham, N. Y. team took the mound at this time for the visitors and held the Lincolcs scoreless through the ninth innings. Dace Brown pitched the extra innings for the home team, relieving Wekwang, but the team was unable to win. Two uen were allowed to walk; then Hefner came up and made a two bagger, which was followed by a single by the pitcher. These two hits resulted in three runs being made. Singles by Pryor, Marcel and Williams in their half of the tenth innings resulted in two runs being made. With two clear outs, the team's contribution was used by the coach which resulted if a double play being made. A feature of the game was the season's first home run, made by "Rich" Gee in the fifth inning. In the other contest the Camden, N. J., nine shut the Lincolns out to the tune of 5-0. Greshader and Seibold, formerly of the Philadelphia Athletics, did not lower only five hits in seven innings. Manager Gaus and Hodges, a recruit, pitched for the Lincoln, and Tom Gee was the catcher. The umpires were Walsh and Warren. Ed Pryor Is Best Of Lincoln Giants' Newly Acquired Ball Tossers Ed Pryor Is Best Of Lincoln Giants' Newly Acquired Ball Tossers Of the eight nepwaliers on the squad of the Lincoln Giants this season, Ed Pryor of Texas and Massachusetts is by long odds the best. He comes from a semi-pro team in Boston and his ability was so well known by Manager Gains that he made the team. As a second baseman, the other Texas men in the lineup of the Lincoln Giants believe that he will excel Awarfield of Hildale as the best second baseman in the East. Although the cold weather has caused the Lincoln to get off at a bad start their first three games, Pryor has shown well in all three games and looks to be a all-time addition to the team. Gerard Williams Signs Contract and Gets Busy Gerard Williams, who was reported last week as seeking his release from the Lincoln Giants, has settled all differences with the manager of that team and was aggran in his old position at shortest last Sunday. He told a friend that he had abandoned his plan of going to Pittsburgh this year. According to an announcement sent out last week by J Mercer Burrell, secretary of the American Tennis Association, Edgar C. Brown, former champion, has been recruited in good standing with that organization. Brown was suspended two years ago during the government in Chicago for an insulting remark followed by defaulting Black Bill Wins His First Bout In U. S.

CARPENTER If seems as though business intelligence and musical intelligence do not combine in the musicians of our group and the business musician be业余而难以与“urgence at being able to secure a position” or a contract for an orchestra, that he will not condescend to the great or musical brains of one of the associated members of the orchestra, with whom he is fortunate enough to come in contact, who, if placed in authority to develop the artiste side, could only insure the success of the orchestra. To be a successful conductor it is not enough only to have the technical equipment, but one must devote time research, if he would compete with the present day orchestra. There are many novelties that can be presented by the development and establishment of some other air. What was considered the “What is the arrangement of the Russian air given as an English title, "Songs India"? The setting of this air, produced a fox trot, became one of the most pular of his repertoire. As this is done by Mr. Whiteman, so can be done by the conductors of our group. The orchestrations as they are written and presented today are the words in efficiency, but the conductor knows his orchestra and there can be some special development that might be more suitable to the musicians in general, and the effect of this special development might come nevertheless. Nobody objections to always be on the alert for new things. With sluracy and forethought there can be, nothing for the orchestra but success, and irrespective of the height of the pinnacle or the obstructions placed in their path, the goal is theirs. Some might say that after being properly snapped, you still have prejudice to intend with. Allow me to add that extraordinary ability knows no prejudice. A written part of prejudice, Jackson fought them down.

Height There are some people who feel that they are not able to command attention, respect and obedience because they happen to be "cursed with short stature". There are others too who seem to believe that simply because they are tall and big that they can impose their wills upon everyone who is "beneath them". Both are somewhat mistaken. Dignity of carriage, of action, of mental attitude need have nothing whatever to do with the size of the body. There is but an insignificant influence exercised by mere bulk. Personality is the important factor. Heredity, training and habits of mind and body may give all that the hearts of approval-seeking men and women desire without a thought being taken. There is those whom humanity has not been kind and to whom parents were too indulgent, there remains the possibility of of developing the enviro characteristics of an ideal person. When people are young, while there is no special method of increasing the weight, there are chances to make them taller. These chances lie in correct living, eating and exercising. Food is necessary to growth. Without it the children can be stunted. It must be adequate in amount and must contain all the varieties that is fruits, vegetables, both cooked and green, milk, eggs, butter, cereals, given regularly, foods. Food must be given regularly, not just whenever someone happens to think about. If people are foolish and try to "diet" without knowing how to do it, and by fearing to be fat deny themselves food, the chances are that they will get barely enough material to supply energy for the days motions and emotions and not a bit left over for growth.

In the first place there are more distant situations than there were, thus reducing the distance that the receiving sets will have. PULLMAN PORTER NEWS By JAMES H. HOGANB In their efforts to, maintain the class and standard of service for which the company is noted, the local management of the Pullman Company is exerting every effort toward securing the best type of colored men for Pullman service in this district. A conception of this effort came to our attention on Sunday last at one of our Metropolitan schools along with other notices, made the announcement that application for work in the Pullman service might he had by applying to Room 2726 in the Grand Central Terminal Building. This particular intelligence was interesting as well as surprising to us for we have never before heard of our employers advertising for porters through this avenue of employment. So, on Monday morning we got in communication with Welfare Worker S. J. Freeman, of the New York district, and elicited from him the information that this policy of recruiting porters through the medium of the churches was not of recent origin, and that it had no significance other than the fact that the Pullman Company is determined that its personnel of porters shall consist of a high type of working and those officials who have charged of the hiring of porters believed that the churches are a dependable medium through which they may secure the kind of men wanted for the service. Although, we were told, an applicant has to have more references than being meet) a churchgoer before his application is considered and approved. In the first instance, he must produce references from the pastor of his church vouching for his character, honest and sobriety, which as a responsibility that the conscientious minister will not assume unless he knows the person recommended. The next thing required is investigation by one of the company's representatives as to the destibility and fitness of the applicant for employment in the Pullman service, for while the seeker after work may be most sincere in his desire to find employment, and might be recommended with the best of intention by responsible person, one so willing and suited fitted to this class of service. The company's investigator, to a large extent, determines that. Lastly, and after favorable consideration of his application by the investigator and the employment department the prospective porter has to undergo a rigid medical examination to tell if he is physically fit for the service. The necessity of all these requirements being filled before an applicant can enter the Pullman service as a porter is proof enough that the best type of unskilled colored workers are wanted and needed by the company. Calling for them in religious circles is an idea which is both commendable and novel.

Sets are more compact this year than they formerly were, so that practically all sets now built are more or less portable. Most out-of-town places now have storage battery repair kits, and most up-to-date using storage batteries can have them recharged where they formerly had to use dry cells for lack of facilities. Where people formerly carried away one tube sets for the vacation, they will now be taking away multi-tube sets. A few years ago, no one thought of taking away a set for the summer unless it was what was called a 'portable set'. This usually meant a set which was small and crowded into a small cabinet. The set could be in a instance pose for client and limited use. There has been a marked improvement this year over last year. The tendency in building sets has been to make them small and compact, although not too; small, as to thinder them from operating efficiently. Just what circuit will be used for the vacation set is hard to say. There are many circuit which will produce sets of the portable type. Among these are sets using the reflex principle, the tuned radio frequency or the ordinary regeneration principle. The reflex set would be good, but for the fact that many of the users do not always get the expected results and often experience a lot a trouble. The tuned radio frequency set might be satisfactory, but where it is used there is a large drainage of current due to the extra tubes required by the radio frequency unit. With 119 type tubes the space of the sets will be reduced considerably as will the battery consumption. All in all, the ordinary regenerative set is most likely to be used by the vacationer. The usual warning must now be given. Fix your set before taking it away so that you will not have trouble while enjoying your vacation. Everyone knows that experiencing trouble while on a vacation is not the most pleasing happening. Be wise and overhaul your set before taking it away. You might avoid a lot of worry and trouble Run over your connections to make sure that they are all well soldered. A broken connection when you are in the country and out of the reach of a radio store is not exactly the most pleasing experience. So one more repair your set before it is too late.
