Department of Buildings and Offices in the Borough of Manhattan, pre-
Dr. Roberts, in the opening address declared that neither the Republicans nor the Democrats could claim credit for giving the voters of the district this much-needed improvement, as both parties had sided in making the battle house possible. Neverless, Commissioner Healy and Matthews attempted to make political capital out of the fact that it was erected during a Democratic administration.
Borough President Miller, who secured an additional appropriation for the building, drew thunderous applause from the large audience when he declared that the building had been erected because it was needed and because colored voters deserved every right and privilege of any other race in the city of New York.
Commissioner Morton thanked the Borough President for his efforts in behalf of the voters of Harlem and urged the colored people in the audience to make the most of their opportunities, especially admonishing them to register and vote in larger numbers than in the past.
The bath house is located in the most congested section of Harlem and in a section where many of the apartment houses are the old style, without hot and cold water. Residents of the 'neighborhood' are still rejoicing over its completion in time for summer use.
Court Upholds Request Of Wealthy Kentucky To Neuro Mother & Son
Lexington, Ky.—A verdict upon being a bequest of the bulk of his estate to his Negro servants was returned here May 27 when a jury unanimously agreed that John T Hughes, wealthy Kentuckian, made his final will on March 28, 1924. In that paper Hughes left $100,000 to the Kentucky female orphan school at Midway and the remainder, valued at about $200,000, to Ellen Davis, Negro housekeeper, and other servants. An appeal probably will be filed, attorney's for the estate said.
A home in the blue grass farming section, described as a beautiful Colonial residence of twelve rooms, filled with costly antique furniture, china and silver, now goes to the housekeeper and to Robert H Hughes, natural son of Hughes and Ellen Davis, Portraits of the Hughes family hang in the home.
Rose Hughes was outside the court room when the verdict was read but his mother heard the verdict. She did not restrain her joy and rocked back and forth in her chair smiling happily. Dozens of friends, many of them white persons, passed past and congratulated the aged woman.

bia University School of Medicine The purpose of building the Medical Center is to fight disease in the modern way and to make and keep people well without regards to race, creed or color.
Rev. William P. Hoyes, pastor of Mr. Olivet, Baptist Church and Dr. J. Gardner Smith spoke favorably of the new Medical Center and encouraged the cooperation of the race. There will be conducted an intensive campaign among the colored residents of Greater New York during the next two weeks and a mask meeting is called for June 14, in Abyssinian Baptist Church in West 138th street at 3:30 p.m. Prominent speakers are expected to be present and several musical organizations have offered talent for the occasion. Dr. Louis T. Wright, has been an active worker in the interest of the campaign and has raised more than $9,500 for the Medical Center. Dean Sage president of the hospital, spoke on the past work of the hospital and told how the motto "without regards to race, creed or color" came to be inscribed on the corner stone of the institution which has been serving the public and meeting the various ills of mankind for fifty-two years. Among those present were Rev. and Mrs. A. C. Garner and daughter, Rev. G. W. Hinton of Corona, N. Y., Wm. G. White of the Chicago Defender and Fred R. Moore of The New York Age.
Some facts about recent changes in the rent situation was furnished. The Age last week by Judge John U. Da VALENTINE J. WEBB
the rent situation was furnished. The Age last week by Judge Johnson, Davies, of the Seventh District Municipal Court, Judge Davies states that instead, of 12,000 dispossessed cases coming before that court this year as they did last year, about half of the cases between landlord and tenants are for a reduction of rents.
In other words the tenants are taking the offensive and many of them are getting relief from oppressive rents. The present reint. laws give the tenants the right to come into court and demand that their landlord reduce their rent in cases where they have not paid more than three months rent and where they feel they are being charged too much. The erection and the opening up of new houses to colored tenants, has caused the landlord to move to a new location with demands and in a few scattered instances they have voluntarily reduced the rent.
Judge Davies also told of other litigation in which colored citizens engage at the Seventh District Court. He said that he was glad of the tendency of the Negroes to use the courts instead of fighting among themselves over their rent bills, wage disputes, etc.
Some of the colored lawyers practicing in this court have complained lately of alleged discourtesies and discriminations "on the part of some of the court attendance and clerks but according to Chief Clerk Valentine J. Hahn, any known discrimination was not countenanced-by him. Mr. Hahn who is also leader of the 13th Assembly District of the Republic organization, friend regards of race, color or creed, says that this court, is a poor man, has spike the feet of the landlord and is not benefited by the judges. He also expressed the opinion that the next few months would see a marked betterment of the rent situation in Harlem.
Mr. Hahn has been connected with this court ever since it was first started in 1896. He began his career as a court attendant and worked up his skills. He is considered an authority on court procedure by those who know him.
Many colored voters of the district are members of the 13th A. D. Club of which Mr. Hahn is the leader and have always found him willing to cooperate and aid them in securing work, etc.
Cincinnati Cop Shot By Fellow Officer While Chasing Wanted Suspect
Ginninnah, Ohio—Despite the fact that he was suffering from a bullet wound, accidentally inflicted by a fellow officer, Policeman Joseph Ahern continued his pursuit, wounded a fugitive and caused his arrest.
The prisoner registered as George Williams, 23, colored. He was shot in the left leg. The policeman and his prisoner were taken to the General Hospital in the same patrol. After his wound was dressed, Ahern was taken to his home Williams was detained in the strong ward.
Officers Ahern, Holtman and Fisher were walking south when the man ran out of an alley. They called to him to halt but he refused Holtman and Ahern drew their guns and followed Ahern and Holtman were running side by side when the latter aimed at the fugitive and pulled the trigger. Just as he did so, Ahern raised his right arm to fire Holtman's hulle struck him. For second, Ahern faltered. Then realizing that the fugitive was gunning, he raised the injured arm, took perfect aim and fired several shots. The fugitive staggered into a hallway and collapsed.
200 Orange, N. J., Citizens Sign Petition Against Vice
Orange, N. J. The colored group of this city have gone on the war path against wire and immoral practices. The crusade is headed by Dr. W. G. Alexander, who bears the distinction of being the first member of the race in the State of New Jersey to be elected to the Assembly. A petition signed by some two hundred colored citizens, asking for a reform of conditions in first ward was presented to the Orange City Commission. The petition stated that dirty streets, gambling clubs, street loafing, saloons, street profanity, pool room gambling, street drunkenness, houses of prostitution, bootlegging and drinking in saloons by young men and women, were conditions that existed in the city of Orange. Commissioner of Safety William Kearney was surprised to learn that such vice really existed in the first ward and promised an investigation. He stated that such conditions had never before been called to his attention.

NEW YORK JOURNAL IS POTENTIAL BREEDER OF RACE TROUBLE THRO VICIOUS HEADLINES AND STORIES
What is characterized as about the most vicious and dangerous appeal to race prejudice in New York City is embraced in the headlines and opening paragraphs of stories printed in the New York Journal of Monday, June 1, in connection with with the activity of the police department in seeking the killer of Florence Kane, a young white girl of Brooklyn, who was strangled to death just after midnight of Thursday, May 28, in a vacant lot as she was on her way home.
With no direct clue, the officers have been working in various directions, with most of their suspicions directed toward various prescript whites who frequented the neighborhood. But the New York Journal dug up a story to the effect that four or five women had complained about being bothered by a Negro and immediately spread two-inch black gothic letters across the front page, saying
"GIRL'S SLAYER IS BLACK BRUTE"
"APE-LIKE STRANGLER IS SOUGHT"
Not content with these false and vicious screaming headlines, the Journal went further and printed a sub-head to the effect that "Squads of Police Rushed to Negro Colonies of All Boroughs in Roundup of Suspects."
This pernicious and calumunious publication declared that
"Drastic orders direct from Police Commissioner Richard E. Enright sent squads of detectives under capable officers each an expert on Negro crimes and Negro criminal psychology, hastening to the various black belt sections of Greater New York, to-day, with orders to pick up angry Negro answering to the description of the slayer of pretty Florence Kane.
The Negroes of Harlem are as law-abiding as are the people of any section of New York City, and the splendid relations that exist between the people of all races in Harlem furnish the only reason why serious troubles and racial clashes do not follow the printing of such vile and slanderous statements as those quoted above from the New York Journal.
The Journal becomes a riot-inciter and peace-disturber by printing such headlines and statements.

HARLEM HOSPITAL MEDICAL BOARD OPPOSED TO NEGRO PHYSICIANS ON HOSPITAL STAFF
Benj. N. Duke Gives $200,000 To Kittrell
Benj. N. Duke Gives $200,000 To Kittrell
Kittrell, N. C.—The outstanding feature of the commencement season at Kittrell College, this year, was the announcement by Prof John R Hawkins of the gift of $200,000 from Benjamin N. Duke of Durham, N. C., and New York City
That the doctors composing the medical board governing Harlem Hospital are outspoken in their opposition to the admission of colored doctors either as internes or members of the staff at that institution, and that some of them have declared that they will not serve with Negro physicians, is what a committee of Harlemites were told by Dr. John I McGrath, chairman of the Board of Directors of Bellevue and Allied Hospitals during the course of a conference on Thursday of last week. Dr McGrath is further quoted as saying that the Harlem Hospital Medical Board, of which Dr Node Neff, originally from Texas, is chairman, has persistently turned down all suggestions made by the Board of Directors by his George O'Hanley, the superintendent of Bellevue and Allied Hospitals, which looked toward opening the doors of Harlem Hospital to Negro physicians.
The Harlem committee was composed of Dr U. Conrad Vincent, Dr Godfrey Nurse Rev I W Robinson, Res A. G. Gairner, Mrs Augusta Coburn and I. A. Rogers appointed following a conference previously held with Mayor Hylan. The latter's difference was with Dr. Marianiel and Director of the Budget Hylan, and was held in conjunction with a suggestion made by Master Hylan.
Dr McGarth declared himself as being in favor of giving the Negro representation on the Harlem Staff. He gives suggestion made by him to ward that and had been uttered upon by Dr. Neff and the other members of the Medical Board. Several members of the Board are quoted as having declared that they will not continue to serve if colored men are appointed on the hospital staff. It was decided at this conference that the computer with Dr McGarth and Director Buckley appear before the Harlem Medical Board at its regu-
Manhattan Lodge Gives $6,000 To Presb'n Hospital
Elks' Organization Votes Unanimously To Make Splendid Donation
Notice that the Manhattan Lodge No 45 of the Independent, Benevolent and Protective Orders - of Elks of the World, a colored organization, had voted $6,000 for the New Presbyterian Hospital of the Medical Center was received recently at the hospital's Building Fund Headquarters, 17 East 42nd street.
The Lodge did not ask for special favors of free hospital service, the gift coming purely from a desire of its members to share responsibility in a great civic undertaking Dean Sage, president of the hospital, and other lead人员 the fund campaign regard the subservience as an indication of the interest being taken by colored people in the broader phases of philanthropy.
The gift is equivalent to the building cost of a one-bed room in the new hospital now being constructed at 168th and Broadway. The name of the donor will be inscribed upon a suitable tab-
Negro Is Certified For Appointment As Inspector Of Carpentry and Masonry
Jacob Roy Scott of 206 West 1431rd street has been certified for appointment by the Municipal Civil Service Commission to the position of Inspector of Carpentry and Masonry for the Building Department of the City of New York. Mr. Scott was successful in passing the examination several months ago and expects to receive the appointment within the next week. He is the first Negro to take the Civil Service examination for a position of this kind in New York City. He is a native of Virginia and completed the course in carpentry at Hampton Institute. After being discharged from the army in 1919 as a disabled soldier, he was given the vocational course in Building Construction at the College of the City of New York Upon competition of this course he secured work with Coogan and Runkle, builders, assistant superintendent with that firm.
The minimum salary paid inspectors in this department of the city is $2,200 per year
lar meeting on June 5, and take up
the entire matter before Mayor Hylan
It was stated by Dr. McGrath that at the last examination for internes at Harlem Hospital, they were eight colored applicants, and that none of them succeeded in passing the examination. It is suggested by doctors familiar with the conditions that in personality and "genetic factors of personality" are of vital concern, and that it is probable that the examining board gave the colored applicants a zero rating in these qualifications. This marking would achieve the result of non-passing as effectively as though the applicant had missed the most important mental queries. The closing of the doors of Harlem Hospital to colored physicians and depopulants them a opportunity for needed attention and experience, said one prominent Harlem physician. He declared that this created a menace to the health of the people of the community, since the doctors are not able to secure the experience and familiarists with modern methods only to acquire through hospital practice. The white physicians said he who are attached to the hospital staff, are not practicing among the people in Harlem but take their added skill and experience to the people of other communities. It was also noted that the serving at Harlem Hospital are foreigners, some of whom are there solely for the purpose of gaining the experience.
A remedy for this state of affairs, say well-informed men is to be found in the electric of a major who will use the power of his office to make such changes in the hospital personnel as will remove this bar to opening the door to colored physicians and surgeons, suggested that a de-merit badge be given to majorities candidates, and that the power of the ballot will be the most effective means to secure favorable action in this matter.

Dining Car Employes Win Third Victory In Year From R. R. Heads Conference In N. Y. Brings Satisfactory Adjustment Of Disputed Policies
A precedent was established in the relationship, of railroad management and dining car employees when for the first time a high executive officer received representatives of Negro employees who were protesting a decision by the head of the department in which they serve.
they serve
This occurred May 22 and 23, when John G. Walber, vice president, in charge of Personnel, New York Central Lines, received in conference the representatives of the Brotherhood of Dining Car Employees on appeal from a ruling by John R. Smart, manager of Dining Car Service on that property.
Since the days of the Railroad Administration, dining car cooks-watters of the eastern railroad—territory of the Brotherhood—hag worked for rates of pay and in accordance with rules embodied in contracts negotiated and signed by their organization and the railroad companies. The New York Central contract has been in effect since 1921.
Policy Changed in 1923
In 1923, the manager of Dining Service changed his policy in a manner which involved an alleged breach of the contract, and when the local adjustment committee wrote him seeking a conference to adjust the matter, he not only ignored the communication, but let be known that he would not even consider the committee; that as far as he was concerned the incident was automatically closed when he directed the change in policy. The Grand Council was given jurisdiction and held three conferences, without result, whereupon the grand president appealed the case to the vice president of Personnel.
The meetings were held in the spacious "counsel room" of the railroad company's new office building, 466 Lexington avenue Seated on either side of the magnificent "reason table" were for the company-John G. Walmer, Personnel vice president, in whose province rests responsibility for adjusting all matters in dispute between the company and its 90,000 employees, and his assistants, "Messrs. Mac Laury and Abell, John R. Smart, manager of Dining Service, and Dining Service Superintendent H W Taylor For the empbytees—Rienai B Lemus, grand president, and S. A. Tureheart, vice grand president, of the Brotherhood; J. R. Bitting, president, local 3, "New York; Lambert Ewing, local 10. Buffalo, W M Walthour, chairman, adjustment committee council 3; committeemen P A. Potter and Frank Lauston.
The railroad officials extend every courtesy and consideration to the employees' representatives and the vice president learned more about the practical side of dining car operation in ten minutes than he ever knew before. This was only natural when it is recalled that ninety-five per cent of practical operation lies in the cookwafter province.
Employes Win Victory
The result was a complete victory for the employees, who got just what the manager of Dining Service said in the beginning they should not have, and which if they did not want to do without they could get out, viz a $25 per month increase in pay for waiters while rendering service not contemplated in the contract—cause of the dispute; and inclusion of the seniority and grievance clauses—which the manager of Dining Service bitterly opposed. The incidental questions of slight wage increases for cooks and waiters involved in establishing of differential and progressive-wage-scale rates, which the vice president flatly disapproved, are now under reconsideration by him because of the representatives' reasonable and vigorous protests against his rulings—due to the unreasonable and arrogant position taken by dining car management.
As chronicle by The Age, this is the third victory of the Brotherhood against the prejudices of oldtime dining car management within in a year, the other two being, respectively, on the Atlantic Coast Line and Southern railroads. The solving of their own problems by Negro dining car employees is of much significance at this time when intensive drives are being made upon the American Federation of Labor in the interests of open door for the Negro

Parnes declared that he was winner of the contest at stake because the team that he was betting in was ahead at the time that the game was called. Pullen did agree with Parnes, then Barnes pulled a revolver pointed the muscle at Pullen's stomach and pulled the trigger twice, but the gun failed to fire.

Tenants In 141st Street Apts. Appeal Judge's Rent Case Decision Landlord Gets Complaints On Number Playing and Gin Parties
The 141st Street Corporation has won a temporary victory over, the tenants who refuse to vacate their four apartments at 103, 105, 107 and 109 West 141st street. The verdict of the jury has been set aside. The case was fought in the Seventh District Court in Ward 125th street for four days. After counsel James B. Ifil had well established the fact that the forty two shape holders who bought apartments really intended to make use of them for their personal, exclusive and permanent occupacy, the judge in charging the jury, instructed them that the fact for them to decided was whether or not the members of the "Tenants Corporation" who had bought up all of the apartments on ten cooperative ownership plan actually intended to occupy the premises themselves.
When the jury brought in a verdict in favor of the tenants, Attorney Kill promptly made a motion to have the jury verdict set aside which was later judged by Justice Abram Ellenbogen. His decision was as follows: The 109 West 141st St. Corporation Vs. Tenants. "There is no question in this case of the perfection of the general scheme of co-operative organization as acquired by the statute.
tion "a requisite." The only question submitted to the jury was whether the co-operative owners intended in good faith to occupy personally the respective apartments purchased by them. Direct testimony was given in behalf of each of the forty two co-operative purchasers which clearly established such intention. There was no contradiction or impeachment of this testimony. Yet the jurors disregarded and by their verdict indicated they disbelieved the uncontradicted testimony of the forty two co-operative owners, among whom were teachers, lawyers, business men, doctors, students and a teacher.
preacher.
"My firm opinion is that the jury's verdict was based solely on sympathy for the tenants and was not the result of deliberation with respect to the testimony."
"Since the only question of fact the jury had to determine was whether or not the co-operative owners intended to occupy personally their respective apartments, the verdict of the jury was contrary to the weight of the evidence and must therefore be set aside." Signed, Abraham Ellenbogen Dated May 17, 1922.
The tenants have now appealed the decision of the judge and the case is now pending. If the tenants lose in their appeal the case will have to be tried all over again or the judge siting at the time the case is called for a new hearing has power to decide in favor of the landlord and the obstinate tenants will then be ejected after a futile effort to stay.
The landlord has made the tenants fair offers, one of which was a five months stay with two months free rent which they spurned. The landlord has received complaint that some of the present tenants are undesirable and it is alleged, that immoral conduct in the day and drinking parties at night have been witnessed by other tenants who are opposed to such customs. Also it is reported that numbers players in the house have worked out a new scheme of building their numbers slips with the money in crevices in the walls, under stairs, in corners and any secret place where the collectors can come and get them unserved. The early morning hunt for hidden number slips and money by different runners for numbers bankers has developed into a howling farce in the building every morning

gathered at the A J Neely registrar of Tuskegee Institute, and executive secretary of the Alumni Association, spoke on the subject, "How the Alumni Association might encourage Students in Scholarship Attainment and Mechanical Efficiency" He urged the delegates and the various local associations to discover talented students and those who sow potential athletic ability and communicate same to the director of the Athletic Department at Tuskegee Institute.
The evening session was held in the Avery Chapel M. M. E. Church and was addressed by B. M. Reddy, St. John Waddell, private secretary to Mayor Payne, Rev. A. L. D. pastor, leader of the Second Congregational Church, who gave welcome addresses on behalf of the Negro business and professional men the citizens of Memphis, and the Negro churches of Memphis respectively. Response to the welcome addresses was made by Dr. Isaac Fisher, editor of The Fish News Nashville Te.
Dr Fisher said in part, "The Tuskegee graduates in whose name I accept these kindly words of welcome may fairly claim for themselves certain traits of character by which they are gingerly known. First, they are men and women of modest hearing who make almost no claims of leadership, they have been trained to do their work without noise and without seeking for very much praise. They have sought our service to those who need it most. In the age, once the Tuskegee graduates have been souls who have willingly served in the quiet hamlet and towns and rural places of the South, even when the cities locked in with all their pleasures and apparent ease of every business and industry or trade and profession.
Dr G. Lake Imes, dean of the Phelps Hall Bible Training School who came as a special representative of Dr Morton, who was invasively detained, spoke for his chief. He said among other things "The foundation of Tuskegee Institute as laid by Booker Washington was unique among educational institutions in America. There are three distinct elements that make Tuskegee unique. First, the distinguishing characteristics of Booker Washington were action, belief in white men—southern white men at that—and belief in Negroes. Where others thought of new things and dreamed new dreams. Booker Washington was the one man in a million to put them into action. His belief in Negroes as evidenced in the fact that he chose
members of his own group as teachers and officers to occupy every position in connection with the administration of affairs at Tuskegee; Dr. Moton's coming to Tuskegee as its principal further services to tomman Booker Washington's prophecy concerning the executive ability and integrity of the members of his own race.
The Thursday morning and afternoon sessions were addressed by J. H McGrew, regional secretary of the Y. M. C. A., John L, Webb, custodian for the Woodmen of Union, Hot Springs, Ark, and treasurer of the Alumni Association; Mrs. Helen Casey, James Supervisor, and others: The delegates in attendance represented fourteen states and eighteen cities from as far north as Detroit, far east as Winston-Salem, N. C., as far west as Chicago, as far South as New Orleans, La., as well as many other cities in between.
President Jesse O. Thomas, in his annual address, sang among other things, "In 1921 when it was first suggested that the local Tuskegee Alumni Association in different parts of the country federate themselves into one nation-wide organization in such a fashion as to require representation by accredited delegates from each local to an annual convention, grave doubt akin to suspicion relative to the positive necessity or feasibility of such an undertaking round definite expression in the attitude of a great many people. That we were wise in changing the character of the organization I believe now there is no one who could be found to question. We are perhaps the first group of Negro men an dwomen, graduates of an institution, to attempt such an enterprise.
President Thomas made soup definite recommendations that were referred to a special committee. Greetings were received from R. S. Abbott, editor of The Theologo Defender, and acting President of the Hampton Alumni Association, as well as a communication directly from the association itself.
The next session of the convention will convene in Chicago June 10, 11, 1920. All of the day sessions of the convention were confined to the delegates, the evening sessions took on the form of inspirational mass meetings, both at the Avery Chapel A M E, and the Metropolitan Baptist Church.
The Alumna Association passed resolutions expressing its endorsement of Dr Moton as head of Tuskegee Institute and pledging its support to his administration
Fortune Telling Employment Agent Fleeces Many Harlem Women of From $5 to $50
---
According to several reports to The Age, a new kind of a "con" game is being practiced on Harlem, on working women. These rep's have it that the game is being played by a short dark man with a green hair that gives his name as Harriam Smith of 200 West 190th street. He says he is an employment agent with the gift of fecelling the future. "Because of this gift, he is able to tell just what kind of work a person is best fitted to, and can make the most money doing."
His splendid equipment has been recognized by employers, according to his history and he has a list of jobs paying $25 to $50 per week. During the time he is taking he does several sleight-of-hand tricks and thus impresses his victim with his cleverness. He then requests that a stipulated amount of money he paid him for securing the position on upper Broadway or in some other section of the city. The money is paid and the address is given, which in nine case out of ten is a vacant lot or an unoccupied house.
Realizing that he has been stung the victim then goes to the 19th street address and asks to see Mr. Smith Mr. Smith comes down but he is not the right one. He is S. A. Smith, the owner of the house, and according to him and his wife there have been at least a dozen people coming to his home looking for a Mr. Harry Smith and told them that he owns the house and Ivy these. Several complaints have been made to the Police Department, but so far no one has been made.
arrests have been made. The opinion is expressed that if legitimate employment agent would go around to people's apartments offering them work especially attractive work at a good salary.

Pullman Porters' Forum Hears Addreses By Two Editors Of Race Papers
Declaring that there were, discounting the smaller ones, no fewer than three large drygoods establishments on 125th street, in which the bulk of the business done was that supplied by Negro customers, living in Harlem one store crediting the Negroes with 83% of its patronage Fred R. Moore, editor of The New York Age told members of the Pullman Porters' Athletic, and Social Club, on Sunday afternoon, May 31, that, it was time that the Negroes of this community awakened to the fact that they were daily enriching merchants and members of other races, who, after they had accumulated enough money to invest elsewhere, usually opened business in some other part of the city and frowned upon, at least, if not actually discouraged, Negro patronage.
This, he said, was a condition which reflected upon the intelligence, pride and foresight of every Negro in the community, irrespective of the position or standing which he occupies in the neighborhood.
In the course of his address, Mr Moore laid stress upon the fact that if members of the race should devote as much of their time and money to the substantial and careful pooling of their resources for business purposes as they do to that expended in the speculative game of playing numbers, and drinking poisonous concoctions sold in the name of whiskey, they would considerably improve their economic condition.
The other speakers at the meeting were A. Philip Randolph, editor of the Messenger magazine, and Counsellor D. C. Outlear.
Mr Randolph declared in his remarks that education and union in in their industrial activities were the only factors by which the Negro race could hope to achieve the protection, security and respect that are accorded the working man of other races. As a case in point, he mentioned the difference in the attitude of the traveling public toward the Pullman porter as compared with the railroad traman, although as far as their status of employment and degree of intelligence were concerned, both these railroad workers-were on a corresponding level, with intelligence veering to the side of the Pullman porter, yet, the traman received a certain semblance of respect which the porter is denied
This be claimed was not due so much to the fact that the porter was a black employee, and rendered personal service, but must be attributed to his weakness in industrial relations. The trainman stood for something in the industrial world, and the fact that if one or two of their num-

Mr. Randolph declared that the Negroes of the professional class, figuratively speaking, were parasitical group; but that the laborer was the man of production, and that as long as our Negro workers remained a poor fourth in the industrial race of life, just so long would those of the professional class remain in the position which they now occupy in the professional world
Counsellor D. C. Outlear spoke on the subject of money.
The musical program was under the direction of Miss Sadie Williams, assisted by Alfred Bryan, Mrs May Williams, Miss Grace Connolly and Miss Estelle Dyson.
The recitation of Paul Lawrence Dunbar's "Encouragement" by Miss Purnell, and the final musical numbers by the female trio. Mrs Williams, Miss Connolly and Miss Purnell, were two of the features on the program which elicited prolonged anglase from the gathering
The meeting, which is the final one until next fall, was largely attended by men of prominence in the business and professional world.

mentable lack of confidence in prior interprises caused by the Brown and Stevens-failure, but which in final interpretation has already wronged justice in the public mind by the false impression conveyed by this technical interpretation.
Court Records Need Legal Interpretation.
Coure records are but dead ineless things, until interpreted by trained in the law. We empire, these very men to go into court and explain the facts and the meaning of the records, to the judge and jury so that they are helped in arriving at a just verdict. For instance, when we say that R. E. C. Brown "Transferred valuable estate to his wife," the public immediately gets the impression that the transaction took pace recently and engenders a spirit of bitterness toward W. E. C. Brown and his wife, on the part of those who lost their money in the Brown and Stevens Bank.
Np Record In 4 Years
Investigation shows that there is no record of a transfer of property to Brown to his wife in the last four years (1921) at which time the bank was absent. It was said that one property was sold. Upon the witness stand, Mrs Brown admits the recent sale of one her properties at 1618 Christian street. This transaction is a fit illustration for the rank injustice done Mrs Brown to a too literal interpretation of the Court Record. Instead of being a first or recent sale, negotiations had been pending for some time between Mrs. Brown and the City fir the sale of this property which the city wished for a house. If this property was not sold to the city, the authorities would have brought condemnation proceedings taken it over anyhow and so it was decided to dispose of it to the city at her price.
Pierce-Arrow Not a New Car
Much was said of the purchase of a Pierce-Arrow sedan Here, too, a feature to go behind the Court Records had resulted in a great injustice to the patrons concerned, giving the impression that a new car had been purchased. Now these are the facts as ascertained after careful investigation.
This Pierce-Arrow had been bought some time ago on a lease, calling for payments at stated times. The Receiver for Pierce-Arrow Sevens returned the car to the Pierce-Arrow, saying they would not keep up with The Pierce Arrow Company, realizing the circumstances under which the car had been turned in and out of recall for past patronage, turned the car to Mrs Brown at her own price, saying she could now for it at her convene
No Hidden Asserta
The writer also went into the question of hidden asserts, set up in this petition by disaffirmed creditors through the case of Brown and Stevens into bankruptcy thereby dissipating its assets and further prolonging winding up of affairs over a period probably exceeding one or two years. We found that most of hiding his asserts as charged by Brown turned over $800,000 of his personal asserts to the bank, including the following $300,000 Stock Peyton Apartments New York, $18,000 Stock Lincoln Trees, Newport News, $25,900 Metropolitan Bank, Norlok; $250,534 of Brown's own money which was posited at Brown and Stevens bank.

During the years 1919-22 F.C. Row total earnings in New York Realty $400,000, which he turned over to and Stevens Bank

the passing sentence. Judge Shepard said to the convicted man that Some States have attempted to make laws seeking to offset the pronounce statutes, by coonage and slavery have, been abolished, and it is idle for any State to attempt to account a desire to return to old conditions. The law is constitutional. It will be held constitutional forever, not matter how often the States may differ with the Government. Slavery for debt, or any other cause, will not be tolerated.
Three Men Sentenced
Charles Land, one of the operators of the Naval Stores Co., was given a sentence of one year in the Atlanta Federal Penitentiary, and Carey Whitefield went to jail in default of paying a $200 fine. Alfred Land, a brother to Charles, was on the eye of going to trial on the peonage charge, having pleaded not guilty. At the last minute he changed his plea to guilty and Judge Sheppard fined him $500.
Alfred Land was charged with obtaining a warrant for Henry Sanders, a Negro laborer at a turpentine camp and bringing him back from Liberty county; where Sanders had sought sanctuary. The expense of bringing the man back totalled $113, and this was paid to 16 Land by Moon Davis, one of the operators of the Naval Stores Co., convicted a week earlier of peonage, and with other indictments pending. The paying by Davis of the $113 constituted actually the buying of Sanders and placing him in

It is usual for life insurance companies in process of organization to take a period of at least five years to raise their capital in order to become a company. One of the largest companies of the country after two years of steady and strenuous effort, could not get their hundred thousand dollars together and so had to operate under special permission with $91,000 nine thousand dollars short. These are different days. Companies are conceived and perfected in a year, that used to require years of preparation, and one among the colored group, at least, has broken the record for organization and development.
The Victory Life, a colored mourn-
ance company organized in the state of
Illinois with its head office at Chicago,
has cut down their time requirement
from two years in which to raise their
capital to four months, in which it was
actually deposited along with a surplus
of fifty thousand dollars. The pet-
allowed for organization was not co-
pure until next October, but the com-
pany already has cover a mult of days
of written business. Their balance-
sheet of December 31 contained a siflong financial statement at the end of
nine months of activity
Besides, the company is now operating in eight states, these being Maryland, West Virginia, Texas, District of Columbia, Ohio Missouri, Illinois, and New Jersey.

Judge Scores Peonage
Judge Sheppard, in passing sentence on Alfred Land, lectured him severely. "There may have been some provocation," said he, "to seek and bring back to work a man who quit his job while giving you money. There is a marked inhibition in the law, however, against a man being brought back against his will to work out of debt. This law was not made particularly to protect the Negro, for all are included in its protection, and I know that in some sections white persons are in sore need of its aid. The Judge cited prognose cases which had come under his observation.
"There was a case in Georgia," he said, "where women were herded in a swamp and gave themselves up only after the swamp had actually been shot up by the slave drivers. There are similar instances of cruelty to peons along the Mexican border, where white men, rather than Negroes are driven to the will of their employers.
"Men have come forward to testify to awful conditions in the turpentine swamps. And others have attempted to prove those witnesses had not visited the scenes
"These last may or may not have been guilty of perjury, but if they were it is a far more reprehensible offense than that of peonage, which all evidence tends to show has actually been, practiced in this State."

Asbury T. Jones, convicted of con-

imprisonment each, with a fine of

Missouri Sheriff Is Killed, and Mob Shoots Alleged Killer In Swamp
Springfield, Mo.—One of the two colored men for whom a search has been made for the killing of Deputy Sheriff Kinser, of Springfield and the wounding of Deputy O. Crosswhite, was shot and instantly killed by a large posse in a timber belt half a mile northwest of Marshfield.
It was not until the posse was making its second trip through the timber that the body of the fugitive was discovered. The colored man had been shot at once in the head and seared times in the body the second fugitive is being extensively sought by residents of Greene and Webster Counties in conjunction with the posse.
lager, who are in New York in the interest of the company, declare that the company "does not have to sell race," as the policies written by the Victory Life compare favorably with those on any other company, both in the benefits to be derived from those policies, and in the low cost of obtaining them. Such a company has long been needed in this section of the country. Negrems must have something else besides race to offer when they expect to get money from our people. We need to sob less and roll up our sleeves more, we must erase selling any old thing "because it is colored," and learn to offer things that have real value in them. On this count above the Victory Life does success.
The balance sheet of the company at the end of December 21 showed ten capital to be $100,000 and a net surplus, after a deduction, of $57,378.21, more than seven thousand dollars over the New York legal requirements. Assets admitted, $167,200.85 and Palatine's holding reserve on policies, excepting capital, $9,622.94, insurance in force for nine months business $642,112.50.
The examiner for the Insurance Department of the State of Illinois made a very commendable report on the affairs of the company its investment policy, and the economy with which the affairs of the company have been managed, adding, "the claims were promptly settled in full, and in accordance with the terms of the respective policies.
The company issues ordinary life policies, and a wide range of endowment policies in amount varying from $100 to $10,000 including ages from 1 year to sixty years.

Women's Auxiliary Active For Race Good Mrs. Bessie Oliver Miller Urges United Effort Against Scourge of Prejudice
There are many suggestions for lessening the scourge of race prejudice. Any group of Negroes, from two up, can find perpetual interest, in telling the other fellow what should be done about it. This pleasant pastime is remindful of a cat chasing its own tail. Nothing comes of the wasted energy except a self satisfied feeling from berating the whites and airing one's pet theory on the subject.
One Hundred Women Organize
According to Mrs. Bessie Oliver Miller, wife of the well known actress, Flournoy Miller of the famous "Shuffle Along Company," and also the popular president of the Women's Auxiliary to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, "he who would be free must strike the first blow," and that slogan means work as well as talk.
Says Mrs. Miller, "In May, 1924 some one hundred colored women, previously brought together in arranging a benefit to raise funds for the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, decided to permanently organize for radical betterment. The "Committee of One Hundred" was the outcome it later changed its name name, however, to "The Women's Auditory to the N. A. C. P" and set out to raise funds to assist the national association in waging warfare on lynching radical discrimination and other outrages perpetrated on Negroes "If Negroes themselves rest content under injustices put on them," said Mrs. Miller, "how can they expect others to take up the cudgels in their defense?"
The auxiliary investigates case of alleged discrimination and the denial of civil rights and reports on the same with recommendations to the national office. It also functions in other directions by aiming to stimulate attendance on the part of colored children through high school, college and university, and it further works for neighborhood improvement. The membership is not limited to one hundred, but new members are being constantly added.
During its short existence it has turned over to the National Association nearly two thousand dollars from benefits it has given in which have appeared such famous artists as Miller and Lyle Sisle and Blake, the "Runnin Wild Company," and others. Mrs. Miller has been head of the group since its inception and is a firm believer that if we are to stop outrages against us, every Negro-man, women and child—should each do a bit in helping towards that end.
Delegates To N A A. C P.
Convention
On Sunday afternoon, June 15th the Auxiliary will have a musical featuring such stars as Mrs Charlotte Wallace Murry, Miss Beatrice Lewis of Washington, D.C., Felix Weir, violinist, Tenord letter, cellist, and it is hoped Juus Bledsoe, baritone. It will be given at the home of Mrs Miller 252 West 139th street, for the purpose of raising funds to assist in defragging these expenses of two delegates to the National Convention of the N.A.A.C. P which meets in Denver, Colorado, June 24-30. Mrs Rosalie McCleandon and Mrs Edgar N Parks have been elected delegates. The officers of the Auxiliary, in addition to Mrs Miller, are Mrs William Piekens, 1st vice president, Mrs Rosalie McCleandon, 2nd vice, Mrs B Tompkins, recording secretary, Mrs R. R. Randolph, executive secretary, and Mrs Grave Naal, treasurer.

Miller Urges United Ef- courge of Prejudice
The Reason
By Cora M. W. Greenleaf
I often wonder why the love Lord made
Us women folks to love the way we can
Neglecting to create, I am afraid,
An object worthy of our love—just gave us man
And called it square Ah me! a poor excuse
We have to love "not wisely, but too well"
Look at him, dear!-your eyes were made for use-
There's not a single reason you can tell
Why you should lavish adoration there.
And worship him as though he were a god.
While all the time you know he doesn't care
Particularly to be loved It's odd
But true, the more a man is loved
The less he gives a women in exchange-
A wretched fact experience has prov ed
But each must prove it for herself,
it's strange.
And yet we love him, aye and always
shall.
Not for the worth nor beauty of
the lad.
But there's nothing else to love him—
truth to tell—
And oh, my dear, he needs it
mighty bad
its anxieties and disappointments
causes most of us to forget our
mouths and we allow them to droop
when it is really a duty to ourselves
to keep them full and rosy
Often when we are nervous or worried we catch ourselves chewing our lips and twisting them into almost impossible contortions. When women do this it would be a great help if some friend would remind them that it is a mouth running practice to chew the ips
Dry and cracked lips may be treated with a little vaseline or camphorice, which will heal them and help keep them soft and rosy, but what if mor is disappointing than a beautiful mouth marred by a colored teeth? Surely if there is anything which is entirely under our own control it is the condition of our teeth. One may have good teeth to the last day of one's life if they are just well cared for. That's the secret.
If your teeth are perfect be thankful and keep them so. If not, go to a competent dentist and have them put in good condition, then brush and keep them white as pearls.
Hot Weather Beverages
The "Housewife" says Iced tea is probably the favorite home beverage for hot weather, but children should never be allowed to drink this tempting, wee-drinking, refreshing juice says the doctors and food specialists who all agree that tea makes children nervous, and retards rather than aids healthy development.
A potter of orangeade or lemonade should be prepared for the children on hot moons and nights when grown people are enjoying their tea. Oranges are especially good for children, furnishing a high percentage of vitamins so necessary for growth. In addition, orange and lemon juice supply valuable mineral salts and healthful mild acids to the system and act as a gentle laxative. Best of all, nearly everybody, juvenile or adult, really likes drinks made of these fruit juices, which are obtainable the year round.

DUTIES OF THE STATE
In his Memorial Day address, delivered at Washington, President Coolidge made some pertinent statements relating to law enforcement and the duties of the various state governments. He differed with some observers as to the conditions of lawlessness that obtain in many sections, and insisted that the people of this country are not as a whole a lawless people, but too frequently a careless one. The multiplicity of laws, the possibility of appeals, technicalities in procedure, delays and expense of litigation, those were all admitted as causes of reproach for the administration of the law.

The multiplicity of laws, the possibility of appeals, technicalities in procedure, delays and expense of litigation, those were all admitted as causes of reproach for the administration of the law.
Emphasis was laid on the necessity for better local government in the various states, rather than depending upon more Federal government. The tendency of local government to evade its responsibilities and to cast them upon some other agency is at the bottom of much of the lack of law enforcement so prevalent in certain communities. The trend of such a movement is to increase the duties and responsibilities of the Federal government and to weaken the sovereignty of the state. This centralization of power in the general government has been encouraged by the system of doles or grants of financial aid to the states, in matters from the building of roads to the betterment of babies.
All this is due to the disposition of many of the states to dodge the responsibilities of law enforcement and the maintenance of their own roads and maternity clinics. As the President truly said, "when the local government unit evades its responsibilities in one direction it is started in the vicious way of disregard of law and laxity of living. The way to avoid this is to maintain a union of indestructible states, based on the policy of individual observance of the laws. I must be strongly supplemented by a vigorous enforcement of the law. And this does not mean only certain laws, but all laws granting the protection of life and property for every class of citizens.
The President failed to take into account the practice of many states, the authority of which fail to enforce the laws, merely because of differences or race or color in those affected by them. Until the states reach the high plane of law enforcement demanded by President Coolidge, the people will have to look to the Federal power for relief in such matters as lynching and peonage and mob violence.

The effort to secure racial representation in Harlem Hospital, in other departments besides the nurses division has been put squarely up to Mayor Hylan and Dr. McGorath, chairman of the board of trustees of Bellevue and Allied Hospitals. The desire for representation was voiced by Dr. Vincent, who told the mayor that the Negroes of New York wanted an opportunity given them at Harlem Hospital as resident and visiting physicians and surgeons, as internes, and in every department of the hospital functioning including clerical and manual labor, skilled and semi-skilled vocations. He asked for the appointment of ambulance chauffeurs, orderlies, clerks, stenographers, bookkeepers and laborers.
At the audience granted by the mayor, he promised sympathetic consideration of the plea presented by the committee and expressed ignorance of the conditions referred to as existing at the hospital. A sub-committee of seven was appointed to hold another conference with the mayor and hospital authorities. The chief stumbling block to the grating of the medical representation asked for is said to be the attitude of the white internes at this hospital, who resent the presence and active participation of colored medical men as students or practitioners. Some of these internes are said to be Southerners and others of foreign birth, but in either case this attitude is equally absurd and unworthy of any consideration by the hospital authorities.
There is no valid reason why the mayor or Dr McGrath should hesitate in granting the representation requested on account of the abjections raised by such rank outsiders. The petitioners in this case are themselves and representative residents of Harlem taxpayers and voters. They are the people who help to support the hospital by their money and who resort to it in time of sickness or acci-
dent. Their claims to consideration are certainly greater than the handful of Internet gathered from all corners of the country, who ply their profession there largely for the purpose of getting experience that may help them along in life. Let the Mayor and the hospital authorities serve the interests of the citizens of Harlem by giving all races a fair deal in Harlem Hospital. Colored patients constitute a large proportion of the cases treated there, so it is appropriate that representation should be given to the race in the medical and nursing staff, as well as in other departments.
PUNISHMENT FOR PEONAGE
Considering the fact that peonage has become an established institution in many of the Southern States, replacing the ante-bellum state of chattel slavery, it is interesting to observe the result of the efforts of the Federal government to stamp it out or at least to make it unpopular. In the Federal court at Pensacola, during the past few weeks, several white Floridians, including county officials were indicted and found guilty of peonage. A special despatch to the New York World told of the sentences passed upon some of these slave drivers who were convicted.

In the Federal court of Pensacola, during the past few weeks, several white Floridians, including county officials were indicted and found guilty of peonage. A special despatch to the New York World told of the sentences passed upon some of these slave drivers who were convicted.
A fine of five hundred dollars was imposed upon one of the indicted men, who had pleaded guilty on the eve of trial. Another who was convicted after pleading not guilty, was sentenced to one year in Atlanta penitentiary. The third offender went to jail in default of the payment of a fine of two hundred dollars. While these sentences of fine and imprisonment seem wholly inadequate to the enormity of the crime charged against these offenders, may be that they were as heavy as the judge felt that he could impose in view of the prevailing state of public sentiment in Florida concerning the subject of peonage, the sentences were made to fit the crime, might follow that it would be impossible to obtain further convictions.
It does not appear that Judge Sheppard who heard these cases, was in any way inimited to minimize the crime committed, although in lecturing the offender who pleaded guilty, he praised mfor making that plea. In citing peonage cases that had come under his observation, Judge Sheppard said:

"There was a case in Georgia where women were hearded in a swamp and gave themselves up only after the swamp had actually been shot up by the slave drivers. There are similar instances of cruelty to peons along the Mexican border, where white men rather than Negroes are driven to the will of their employees.
"Some States have attempted to make laws seeking to offset the peonage statutes, but peonage and slavery have been abolished forever, and it is idle for any State to attempt to flaunt a desire to return to old conditions. The law is constitutional. It will be held constitutional forever, no matter how often the States may differ with the Government Slavery for debts, or any other cause, will not be tolerated
"Men have come forward to testify to awful conditions in the turpentine swamps. And others have attempted to prove those witnesses had not visited the scenes "These last may or may not have been guilty of perjury, but if they were it is a far more reprehensible offense than that of peonage, which all evidences tends to show has actually been practiced in this State."
Another Federal judge at Anderson, S. C., made a show of imposing somewhat heavier sentences for peonage in the cases of four offenders brought before him, as if to indicate that public sentiment in South Carolina was more strongly opposed to this system of slavery. The owner of the farm where a Negro had been held in peonage, was sentenced to five years imprisonment at Atlanta and one thousand dollars fine for peonage and two years imprisonment and five hundred dollars fine for conspiracy. Three others were sentenced to two years each, with fines of five hundred dollars for one and two hundred and fifty dollars each for the others on the charge of conspiracy. But these sentences wer all modified by the stipulation that they should be suspended after the serving of one year and the payment of fines. One year in Atlanta penitentiary was the outmost penalty imposed for this outrageous crime of peonage, which is part of the industrial and social system of the South, and which entails brutal torture and murder in its operation. Peonage is on a par with lynching and mob violence, all of which are sustained by popular sentiment and the convince of local and state officials.
Public opinion needs to be educated to condemn all three of these forms of savagry so that both Federal and State courts may not hesitate to impose adequate sentence upon the modern slave drivers and their confederates.

LEADERSHIP IN AFRICA
A new phase of the African situation or at least one that has had but scant recognition in the past has been revealed in the report of the Phelpe-Stokes Educational commission on East Africa. This report emphasized the fact that the millions of native peoples against the mere tens and hundreds of Europeans established the inevitable importance of the Africans in all forms of occupation. They comprise the masses of the population and they need the element of African leadership. As the report goes on to say "Native masses and native leadership are the essential complements of African society
A new phase of the African situation or a least one that has had but seant recognition in the past has been revealed in the report of the Phelps-Stokes Educational commission on East Africa. This report emphasized the fact that the millions of native peoples as against the mere tens and hundreds of Europeans established the inevitable importance of the Africans in all forms of occupation. They comprise the masses of the population and they need the element of African leadership. As the report goes on to say "Native masses and native leadership are the essential complements of African society. White leadership is a help, but it can never take the place of native leadership."
This is advanced ground to be taken by the members of this commission, who included Dr. Thomas Jesse Jones, educational director of the Phelpa-Stokes Fund; Dr. James H. Dillard, Dr. Homier L. Shantz, Dr. J. E. Kweggir Aggrey and several colonial authorities. Seven months were spent in 1924 making an intensive survey of East Africa, along the lines pursued in making the original survey covering West, South and Equatorial Africa. The territory included in this last survey included French Somaliland, Abyssinia, Kenya Colony, Uganda Protectorate, Tanganyika, Zanzibar, Portugese East Africa, Nyasaland, Southern Rhodesia and the Union of South Africa.
The notable feature of the report is the calling for the inclusion of the natives in a plan of cooperation, which will include government officials, missionaries, European settlers and trades organizations. Dr. Jones looks to the European nations which control all of Africa, but Liberia and Abyssinia, to work out a definite plan for native education and training and not to leave it to the individual and uncoordinated efforts of the governors of the various colonies. The kind of education that would prove a solution of the problem must be one intelligently adapted to the needs of native life. Simplicity rather than complexity is urged and Dr. Jones gives as his basic principles:
1 Health and sanitation for a land where the infant death rate ranges from 300 to upwards of 600 per thousand:
2. Training in crop production, animal husbandry, food preservation and the farm trades for a people who are often decimated by famine in a land of plenty;
3. Proper understanding of the "decencies and safeties of the home," including preparation of food, provision of proper clothing and care of the ill;
4. Healthful recreation and amusements.
While paying high tribute to the character building influences of the Christian religion, Dr. Jones emphasized the expediency of preserving as much as possible of native tradition and customs, modifying them and directing them into the proper channels. The great power that the African woman wields over the health and home life of her family is cited as showing that education is just as important for the girls as for the boys. Finally, it is laid down that hand in hand with such development of education for the masses, should go adequate provision for the training of a native leadership. This is essential to a peaceful working out of the question of European responsibilities for the development of Africa along industrial and commercial lines.
The recognition of the necessity of educating for native leadership is the most significant feature of the report of the commission in that it opens up a new program for the development of Africa along more progressive lines.
POLICE EFFICIENCY DISCOURAGED
The severe sentence meted out to Officer Green last week on a charge of interfering with two patrolmen in a prohibition case, last July, has aroused considerable discussion as to the existence of a settled policy to discourage efficient colored officers and to force them to resign. The evidence presented showed that Officer Green, who was at the time doing detective duty, had reasonable cause to interfere and arest a notorious stool pigeon, on the charge of having alleged whisky in his possession. The attempt of the two white officers involved to protect Dancey, the prisoner, was a doubtful feature of the case, as his record is too well known to inspire the belief that he was engaged in any legitimate transaction.
The additional charges that Officer Green "conducted himself in a disorderly manner and did by his interference cause a crowd to collect; failed to be respectful and failed to give name and shield number when requested to do so" seem to have been thrown in to give weight to a pretty weak case. Under all these conditions the sentence of a fine of twenty days pay, amounting to about one hundred and forty dollars, with a transfer to uniform duty and assignment to the remote precinct of Brownsville, in Brooklyn, seemed greater than the cause warranted. In fact, the officer's alertness in detecting the possession of unlawful liquor on his prisoner would have counted to his credit under any genuine effort to enforce the prohibition law.
The testimony given by the white officers in favor of the stool pigeon whom they seemed bound to protect despite his despicable record as a betrayer of innocent women, was not of a sort to inspire confidence. Their claim that they were frightened at the demonstration made by an excited "mob of more than 5,000" gathered at 135th street and Lenox avenue, that they, would not have been frightened in Brooklyn, as they lived in the Mayor's neighborhood, sounded incoherent or puerile to those knowing the facts. Those in the neighborhood, at the time of the arrest, said that there was only the usual crowd at that corner
The treatment given to Officer Green for his alertness and efficiency in making an arrest of this kind suggests that there is a disposition to discourage such initiative on the part of colored officers. How far up
Comments By The Age Editors On Sayings of Other Editors
this policy extends in the official heads of the department we do not know but it is time that it was brought to light and those responsible for it brought to book. It does not seem possible, that the acute and experienced deputy commissioner who heard the charges, could have been fooled by the character of the evidence presented, especially in view of the fine record of nine years service presented by the accused officer's attorney. Nor do we believe that Commissioner Enright issued the order, confirming this sentence with a full knowledge of the facts of the case.
The Gary Commonwealth insists that Indiana politics are still permeated by the rotten influence of the Ku Klux Klan. It said:
The Ku Klux Klan sticks out in Indiana politics because this State has become known as "a hotbed of hoodliness." Its propaganda and expressed purposes regarding Jews, Negroes and foreigners compel these people to become sensitive regarding any candidate for office, known as a klansman or having suspicion of Klan endorsement attached to his ambition.
Voters in the Republican Primary of May 5th wamessed the pitifully silly efforts of some Negroes pretending to have proof that Floyd E. Williams is not a Klansman. The candidate himself never said a word about the Klan that the Commonwealth can remember. He is therefore to be credited with the superior sense sadly needed by the Negroes who foolishly pretended to know that Floyd Williams is not a Klansman.
The Klan is in politics—bent upon extending its power and stamping its racial ideals upon every American community within its realm. If those white people who know most about the Klan its laws, methods of operation and membership are to be believed, some Negroes have lied.
Few Negroes have been so dead to any sense of decency as to figure as apologists for the klan. Among this number the most conspirous offender who remains in public life is Perry Howard, an assistant in the Department of Justice, and he seems to have learned enough discretion to cease his mouthings on the subject.
The editor of the Nashville Clarion delights to deal in aphorisms, whether they are original or not. The editorial column of a recent issue was decorated with the following chunks of wisdom
Just as men are pleased at finding fault, they are displeased at finding perfection
When a true genius appears in the world you may know him by this sign, that the dunes are all in confederacy against him.
A great many people delight more in giving presents than in paying their debts. Evidently they have not learned that duty demands that one should be just before he is generous.
Temperate speech is a debt that man will always owe to society. A man has no more right to say n uncivil thing, than to act one; no more right to say a rude thing to another, than to knock him down.
The man who delights to be humorous and jocular should avoid himself when he is stelling funny tales. Such tales are always to his own advantage. People may be amused and laugh at the time, but they will be remembered, and brought up against him on some subsequent occasion.
The homespun philosopher of the Richmond Planet will have to look to his laurels, if this Tennessee mine continues to yield such nuggets of prose if they are not original, we would think they were adapted from the Chinese.
The American Baptist of Louisville, Ky has joined the advocates of the "back to the farm movement, saying
There was a time that the bulk of the people lived in the country districts, but there has been a gradual change in that condition and there is only 48 percent of the population of this country that now reside in the rural districts. What is worse this condition is not improving but more of the people are moving into the cities. Reasons such as better wages, better schools and more recreation are offered for the change, but better living conditions, better food and better health are left behind. Then there is the question of birth rate that enters into these changes. While the population of the cities continue to increase, the birthrate of the cities does not increase with it. In many of the cities the matter of building up additions adjacent to the cities is growing and many of the people are moving out of the congested districts and in this way are improving living conditions. But the adage "back to the farm" is not finding as many adherents as it ought and there should be more attention paid to the effort to induce our people who reside in the country and have nice farms, good hemes, good churches and good schools, and remain under those influences which mean better health more comforts and longer life.
It should be much easier to induce those who enjoy the advantages of country living described above to cling to them if they were apposed of the disadvantages encountered in large cities. But such advantages are not common to all country districts.

It would be a good thing if the Mayor would call the attention of his Police Commissioner to the suspicious circumstances surrounding this case and put a quietus upon an policy designed to cripple the usefulness of colored officers and discourage them from performing their duty. The fact that the police witnesses sought to bolster up their case by using the Mayor's name to fix their home neighborhood, would warrant his intervention on that special ground, although the general principle of a square real and municipal fair play demand it.
exceedingly well since the riot. They have rebuilt on Greenwood and other streets where much property was destroyed. They have three or four hotels, lunch houses, theatres and drug stores. They are making great preparations to entertain the Business League. Every effort is being put forth to do so and there will be no doubt that those who attend the League will say that they have had one of the finest sessions in the history of the Business League, and that Tulsa did all in her power to make it pleasant for the visitors. Our friend, Mr. Theodore Baughan, Editor of the Oklahoma Eagle, and who for many years was traveling Manager of the Topeka Plaindealer, is doing much for the upbuilding of the race. His wife is post-mustress of the local post office located in that building.
The fact that the members of the group in Tulsa have succeeded in restoring the material losses suffered in the riot of a few years ago, is a convincing proof of Negro grit and moral stamina. A race that could recover from such a staggering loss of life and
Farm Ideals And How To Achieve Them
By Benjamin P. Hubert
Tuskegee Institute, Alabama.
Every rural community and, every farm family should have certain fundamental ideals around which the life of the family and the life of the community should revolve. There should be certain outstanding things that the older and mature folks point with pride, and to which the younger people aspire. There are many families and communities all over America that stand out in our national life by reason of the fact that they have adopted some definite standards or ideals in their economic and social life, and have not wavered in their adherence to the same.
With concrete definite approachable ideals there cannot fail to be progress in every phase of our community life. Without these vision or guide posts, our economic and social life is purposeless, and the real community finally perishes.
Home Ownership Ideal
Under our present system of American Agriculture, it is difficult to see how there can ever be any permanently satisfying life on the farm without the ownership of the farm home. The very word home gives us the "feel" of an abiding place—a place which we can call our own—a place that we can beautify knowing that every added beautification will remain for us and our children to have and to enjoy. A farm feels the presence of an owner. A tenant can never hope under our present system of farming to increase soil fertility, beautify the houses, plant hedges and shrubs, and start a peach and pear orchard, because he will by these same efforts increase his rents or have his farm rented by another who would willingly possess the farm he has beautified and increased in value. Home ownership makes it possible for him to have an interest in our neighbors in our church, and in our schools that is more stable, because in these the farm owner sees people and institutions, that will, for all time help to make or mar his prosperity and happiness. The tenant cares little for community social institutions, since in many instances, he did not assist in building the same, and cannot definitively plan to remain under their neighboring influence.
The census of 1920 shows that there are 925,708 Negro farm operators. In this number 202,000 are farm owners. This is a splendid mark of progress, but we must not stop here. Every Negro farm operator should be a farm owner. When white farmers are leaving the land and prepared to sell on most any term is the time to buy. Get hold of some land. There can be no permanent civilization without good fertile land, and ownership by the operator is essential to permanent fertility.
Getting a vision of home ownership and its many potentialities is the first step. Some one must make the first move in the community. When a start has been made others will follow. Owning a farm will call for economy, self-demal, and hard work. There is no royal road. Quit share cropping and renting. Let the payments now made as rent go as payments on the farm that we to become the home. Let the family worked up over this ideal. More work will be done. Wife and children will economize willingly because the "Home Ownership Ideal" makes one of the strongest appeals that a family can have.
Know Something
Following closely on the heels of the ownship ideal or preceding it, should

Referring to the rapid spread of the virus of Southern race prosecute in Cleveland, once famous for its like a ray, the Cleveland Herald said:
Recently two young men entered a downtown restaurant. The management refused to serve them, where upon they swore out a warrants, for the arrest of the manager for violation of the State Civil Rights statue. The case was tried and the manager was fined. The step taken by these young men was the most effective thing to be done. Vindicated them in the right to enjoy full privileges at a public service place. It warned the management that such practices are illegal. I used an example for like-minded managers of public service establishments. I demonstrated the method of redress that others similarly discriminated against must follow.
There seems to be a growing tendency among our group to accept with only vocal protest whatever discrimination is heaped upon us. In the end the pursuit of such a policy can prove nothing short of suicidal to our civil rights. Only ceaseless insistence upon enforcement of the law will prevent the Civil Rights statute from becoming a dead letter as it is already in many sections of the state. It is equally essential that we avail ourselves of opportunity to use public service institutions wherever the need arises. "Thin skinned" the characterization which John Hope president of Morehouse college, gives to the policy of avoiding place where we fear we will meet with hurling denial of rights.
Discrimination works like a deadly opiate. The more accustomed we become to it, the less one resents it. When a group of people get to the place where they feel no sting in being discriminated against, where they accept unprotested the "place," designated for them an arrogant group, they are hopeless. To guard against this we must be eternally vigilant.
The fight against discrimination in public places is one that should be maintained without intermission. By continued protest and invoking the powers of the law, such discriminations will be abolished and the public become educated to the idea of equal accommodations without distinction of race or color.
come the desire and determination to educate the family and the entire community. Every community is poor no matter how much land and houses are owned, if there is not the burning zeal to know about the things around them that affect their daily life and the lives of other people in all parts of the world. Educational standards should be high and no child should be left out. We should talk, preach, and act education in season and out of season. Get in the children and old folks the thirst to know because of the power and satia faction that comes from lives that are in tune with life around them.
This teaching should be practical. It should be in the hands of broad, sympathetic, understanding teachers, who are not afraid to learn new things themselves. All teaching in the country should have the vocational slant. By this it is not meant that English, History, and Mathematics should be about farming only; but that the teacher should be so full of the life about him that he can weave the lesson into the every day work of the children who surround him and leave them with a clearer and fuller appreciation of country life.
This calls for better paid teachers, good, thoroughly modern school houses, and united support of the community. It may look hard to start off, but in the longest of long runs communities with fine upstanding, educated boys and girls discover the undiscovered resources in soil and climate that provide for still greater progress for community betterment.
Farm With Common Sense
For many years my father has a that the most uncommon thing in the world is "common sense." I have come to think that this is exceptionally true when we consider the farmers in every community whom we find beginning their yearly farm operations with no plan (2) no inventory of what they have on hand and what will be needed during the cropping season (3) no finite idea of what they should plant a little knowledge of what can be grown most economically on their grades of soil (5) and little if any knowledge of soil and fertilizer requirements of the crops they are to plant
The poorest of business men would not attempt to start out on a large venture with so little information. What is needed now more than at any other time is for farmers to use some of the good common horse sense which we are all endowed. First decide what crops should be grown. This can be decided best by finding out the things that will be needed, as food, clothing, etc. for operating expenses during the first year. Then settle how much of this we can reason expect to grow or raise on our farm such as, vegetables, chickens, eggs, cows and milk, deduct this amount from the total needed and we will then know how much we must bring in from goods sold on the market. Now settle several market crops. It is better to have a little money from several products sold at various times of the year than to come to the end of the year depending upon one crop—cotton—and find no money at all.
We should continue to grow cotton but grow it with "Common sense. Make it a small crop—a surplus crop. Fertilize highly. Work fast. At the same time make all other crops bring forth the very best results. If we do this success cannot fail to crown our efforts. Stop, think, plan, then work in accord with the plant. Success awaits the thinking man with the yearning to know something about everything it importance that affects his life. But this can must have a home if he would make this success fasting.

At the 11 o'clock service. Sunday, Pastor Bolden preached from the text: "And when they were, come in, they went up into an upper room, where abode both Peter, and James, and John, and Andrew, Philip, and Thomas Bartholomew, and Matthew, James the Spa of Alphens, and Simon Zelejos, and Judas, the brother of James. These all continued with one accord in prayer and supplication, with the woman, and Mary the Mother of Jesus, and with his brethren. "Acts, 1:13, 14. Subject." The promised Holy Spirit came upon the obedient Anointed Unity Church.
Pastor Bolden said: 'The apostles who returned to Jerusalem after their Lord and Master—had ascribed up into heaven from the mount, followed one his instructions, and went to the upper room and he said unto them, "It is not for you to know the times or the seasons which she Father hath put in his own power." But 'you shall' receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you; and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem and in all Judaea and in Samarita, and unto the uttermost parts of the earth." While they were in the upper room continuing with one accord in prayer and supplication, with the women and Mary the Mother of Jesus and his brethren, Peter the chief of the Apostolic group delivered a very illuminating sermon; he also convened the college of apostles and went about to elect a member in the traitor's, (Judas) place; following this election and confirmation, while they were all in one accord in one place, on the day of Pentecost suddenly the crowd of mushing wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting, and there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire. And it sat upon each o'f them and they were filled with the Holy Ghost and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance. There were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men out of every nation under heaven."
This miraculous manifestation of power may be interpreted as not only the promise of our Lord being fulfilled, but as being the Father and His Spiritual Presence in the mind of the Holy spirit, who as a spiritual person came into the life and mind of the church group, the apologies and disciples, and cook up his residence in their human minds and bodies.
Since this is Memorial Day in our nation, I shall leave off discussing the Pentecostal Day, in a large way, for I shall endeavor to follow up this great work of the Holy Spirit in this wonderful age in my later discourse. May I now call your attention to the glorified Lord our enamuel, whose presence and power is among us, with some reference to a few distinguished persons, that make the history of the nations stand out. I believe the Body that Jesus had after His resurrection was a Body devoid of chemical elements. That Body walked with them to Olivet. That Body had no heart valves working, no blood, Jesus revealed His Cosmo Self then and He is still here today. Your relatives may die and each day they live only in your memory, but no so with Jesus. He lives in all peoples Lincoln and all outstanding characters in this world, have had great influence in the world, but none of these can be compared with Jesus, His Life and Influence.
"Jesus shall reign where'er the sun Doth his successive journeys run:
His kingdoms spread from shore to shore.
Till moon shall wane and wax no more. The princes of the world shall meet, And lay their, homage at his feet. And western empires own their Lord. And savage tribes proclaim his word." Paul's name is one of the outstanding one's in the Roman Empire, because he saw the light, he followed, and was illuminated by that light which was Jesus. Jesus is our Friend. He will not owe you any body. "O for a closer walk with God, A calm and heavenly frame, "A light to shine upon the road That leads me to the lamb."
Go in your upper room, and there Jesus our Emmanuel will fill you with the Holy spirit. Have you ever felt Gods nearness, all though He was whispering to you, as though he was lifting you in his arms at night? If you have you would want to make Jesus alive to all people who do not know Him. I went to Notre Dame Cathedral, where lays the body of the distinguished warrior and conquer Napoleon, also Westminster Abbey, where lie the skeletons of the fallen soldiers. And in our own country, the great St. Jonh the divine Cathedral, where lie Bishop Burke and Bishop Potter; these people die and the dust worms think no more of their body than it does of yours and mine. These people pass on and in years to come they are soon forgotten, but not so with Jesus body. It ever lives daily, hourly and every minute in the lives of His believers and followers. All honor to the heroes and the unknown thousands who gave their lives that this unborn may be preserved and that we might have a free country. We thank God for their services, we thank our enemies and we perseguil their influence. But that which motivated them and the principle for which they died and for which we stand are only of value and real because of the presence of our Lord Jesus Christ the Emmanuel and the power of the Holy Spirit."
At 2 p. m., the Sunday school was opened by the superintendent, Rev. William H. Hogans. At the close of the lesson study, the children rehearsed the carols for children day. At 4 p. m., the Literary Society convened in Milmont Crescent of Brooklyn having charge of the program. In the evening Pastor Bolden continued his discourse of the morning service. The church was well attended. The dinner was served during the day by the members of the Widing Workers Society. Special services at the church Sunday at both the morning and evening service.

Where To Go To Church
Rush Memorial Church
On Sunday, May 11, Rev. G. M. Oliver and his choir performed a moat in spring, service, Ft. St. Mary, M. E. Zion Church, Brooklyn, Rev. Olly spoke more spiritually and encouragingly than ever and his sermon will be remembered by those who heard it for a long time.
Miss Hische Benson, Boursie, organist and directress of the choir, deserves a great deal of praise for her splendid work. A few of the selections the choir sang were "Halleluja Chorus," "Aladda, Fourth" and "Teach Me, Miss Hammonds did well, in the absence of the leading alto. The leading soprano, Miss Mabel L. Andersen, deserves special congratulations. She sang over the radio recently from station WHN. She lives at Williambridge, Mr. Presley and Mr. Willis, both noted for their vocal ability, also did unusually well.
Rev. A.-R. Cooper, member of New York Conference, A. M. E. Church, delivered a masterful scholarly sermon at the morning services last Sunday, Dr. Cooper chose as a subject, "The Marvellous works of God," based on text Rev. 153, "Great. and Marvellous are thy works, Lord God. Almighty." The works of God were beautifully and carefully described by the preacher who seemed to have taken the whole world in his hands and as he revolved it mentioned the works of the glorified one as they appeared on the scene, beginning with the turning of night into day, illustrating this marvellous performance God by the effect which a match lighted the dark room would have on the airborne room. And then God's work is marvellous because an start with nothing and make something stares the sea and all of the works of Nature represent God's wooled performance.
At 8 p'clock, Dr. Oliver preached the second annual sermon to the Twilight Reapers Benevolent Society. The basic principle of this society "Love"—was the theme of the sermon—The efforts put forth by the members of this organization are highly commendable. Miss Olive P, Hopkins was soloist for the society. Dr. Oliver will preach his farewell sermon next Sunday night. The regular communion service will be held at 3

St. James Pres. Church
In a striking and matter plausible way the Rev. G. F. McKee Miller of Stratford, Mo. presided at St. James Church last Sunday from the altar. The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree; he shall grow like the cedar of Lebanon. *Psalms 92:12*
"In the first part of his sermon he compared Christians to the palm tree straight, erect and fruitful. Emphasis was laid on the fact that a good Christian, like the palm tree, will bear Jesus laid on the ground discussed the second part of his sermon which will like the Cedars of Lebanon. The cedar tree is everfreen, said the speaker, and to be a true and stunch Christian we must be e-v-e-r-g-r-e-e-n. He ridiculed persons who support one minister and become dilatory on the ground.

Last Sunday night at the Harlem Second-Seventh Day Adventist Church, 106-108 West 127th street. Pastor Strachan took for his theme, "Hell And Its Torments." This was one of a series of Sunday night sermons the pastor is preaching on the fate of the wicked.
The pastor told his shearers that he read many writers who dealt with the subject of hell and its torments, and from among these he was ready to quote at the beginning of his discourse. The pastor started out by saying, "One author says: "The torments of hell will have the same degree in every part of the requiem the damned. The wicked shall always sink, but never die; always sinking, but never reaching the bottom; always burning, but never consumed."
"Allow me to quote another writer" said the pastor, the sinner must live, in torturing despair as many years as atoms in the air. When these are past, as many millions more, as grains of sand that bound the ebbing sore."
"I quote another writer: Mr. Deunkard, you have taken many a glass of red wine; but in hell, red hot lead will be poured down your throat in a neverending stream, day and night?" And I quote another: "His dancing臂 have spent many a night in a ballroom, a ballroom cast you upon a red hot floor, where you must lie motionless for millions of years, frying out your flesh to grease the dungeons of hell." "And lastly I quote;" "God, Himself is present in hell with you, Mr. Sinner, to feed the flame of your torment, and to give the keenest eye to your pain, that it might cut most intolerably deep. Now dear healer!" said Pastor Strachan. "If these are your vows of hell and its punishment, I advise you to change them tonight, because they are God-dishonoring, and out of harmony with the Bible."
Salem M. E. Church
Salem Church celebrated one of its great festivities last Sunday when the congregation assembled to felicitate Rev. Frederick A. Cullen upon the completion of twenty-four years as pastor of that church. The entire affair was a just recognition of the services of Dr Cullen's nearly a quarter century of leadership bringing Salem Church from a membership of three persons to its present position of affluence in Methodism and church life in general. The anniversary sermon was delivered by the Rev. William H. Dean, pastor of Sharp Street Methodist Church, Baltimore Md, who occupied the pulpit at both services. Rev Dean himself a man of action and accomplishments along the Eastern Shore, gave an appreciation of Dr. Cullen as gained by one engaged in similar activities. The anniversary celebration was marked for its simplicity, there being none of the pretentious formalities of other occasions, yet there was the unmistakable evidence of sincerity and genuine feeling as when humble hearts honor a great leader.
Immediately behind the choir there was a uniformed procession of all the organizations of the church, each headed by its president. These clubs sat together occupying the greater part of the main floor. Dr. Dean then spoke on "The Value of Prayer and Its Power To Overcome Temptation." He're repeatedly, referred to Rev.Cullen as an exponent of the efficacy of prayer. "Often God suffers man to he tempted that he may get spiritual discipline," said he. "Virtue untried is no virtue, valor untested is no valor. Our life is a growth_founded union on activity." He further described Salem's pastor as a fitting example of his text being of his having carried on an in-depth struggle toward success maintained by an unconquerable determination to win. Each organization in making its contribution to a general purse had its president or some spokesman express its feeling toward the pastor. It was these expressions coming from those who knew him best that gave an estimate of the love and esteem in which Dr. Cullen is held.
Mrs. Mary Payne Holder, one of the original three members, was on hand to tell of having counted off the twenty-four anniversaryes and of having shared in the rejoicing and sorrows of that period.
Ms. Collen was inipy the palpit at her husband's death in his honors. Rev. Collen was visibly affected but he graciously thanked the church and expressed that his greatest pride was that he is pastor of Salem, a grateful and loving people.
The purse tendered him was $775. Prof Rudolph Grant had the choir arrange 'special music for this occasion.
Mrs. Jennie Gowings was soloist and George Simmons and William Scantlebury participated in the celebration. was thoughtfully planned and executed by the Ladies Aid Society, headed by Mrs. Florence Sprey and the Steward Board with Levi Brown as head steward.
St. Mark's M. E. Church
The morning and evening services of St Mark's M. E. Church were attended by good sided congregations.
The pastor, Dr. John W. Robinson was the speaker at the morning service and the assistant pastor, Rev. R. A. Bolden, delivered the message at the hour of the service, Dr. Robinson preached a special memorial sermon to John A. Andrews Post, G. A. R., who were the guesses of the church. There were only three members of the Fost in attendance, they being the survivors of the once numerically strong Post which has visited St. Mark's on Memorial Sunday for several years. Dr. Robinson paid a glowing and fitting tribute to the venerable and hoary haired veterans who won imperishable fame on the battle fields of the Great Civil War and who were the first to claim "Old Glory," the greatest flag that ever kissed the brecure. The text of Dr Robinson's masterly sermon was Thus 1st chapter, 1st and 2nd verses. Rev J. E. Harper was a pulpit guest at the morning service.
The Sunday school was well attended. There was a good attendance at the services of the Epworth League. the program was in charge of L. A. Grace, who would be the subject was "Getting and spending my money"

Siloam Presbyterian Church
Tilm service at the morning hour of worship at-Siloom was in the nature of Memorial Day services Rev. George Shippen Stark, pastor, preached from the text: What I say unto all, I say unto you, Watch. Just as we think duty watching to save our guard in military watching to save our guard watching in our religious lives. We must guard our homes and the Sabbath, the bulwarks of the nation. In his sermon the pastor brought out many practical and helpful suggestions as to how we may preserve these bulwarks of the nation.
The junior choir of the church rendered assistance to this praise and commentation of all. It was the first appearance of the choir.
The Bible school held its session at 1:15 Much time was devoted to the last rehearsal for the Anniversary Day hymn. 'Plans are nearly completed for this day which comes on Thursday of this week. In spite of the rain on last Friday night the popular Baby contest held was a success. The prize was the Todd baby. K. J. D. I. Todd, Jr. The expression of the popularity of the Todd baby was evidenced by the large number of votes which the baby brought in.
The vesper service was held in the morning from five to six. The church choir, together with the junior choir, rendered several Spiritualists under the direction of Lucien H. White, organist, director; Solos were rendered by A. Jerome Loring and Mrs. Effe Stanard Smith, the church soloist. There was much feeling and depth of soul in the singing, both by the chirr and the solemn. Hevald was a visitor at this service and rendered a piano solo in her usual excellent manner and which was greatly enjoyed by the congregation. Miss Thelma E. Berlack, a student majoring in journalism in City College. New York City, spoke on the "Constitution and Citizenship." Miss Berlack made an impression on all, both as to her subject and her personality.
Next Sunday the sacrament of the holy communion will be observed at the morning hour of worship.
The last of the series of the vesper service will be held in the easterday from five to six. An interesting musical program has been arranged and the speaker will be Eugene F. Cobble.

Some years ago Connie Mack built up such a strong team in Philadelphia that the other teams in the American League couldn't beat it, and the public knew it. Because of this fact the attendance at the games fell off and there was a general attitude of discouragement among other teams in the League. To reawaken competition, the astute manager of the Athletics sold his best players to the weaker teams of the league—a personal sacrifice but one which materially strengthened the League.
A similar situation has arisen within the ranks of the Eastern Colored League. For seven years Edward Bolden has been building up a team which is without doubt the best colored aggregation in the East and probably the best in the country. For two years straight this team has won the championship of their league and are on the road to another victory and pennant.
With the possible exception of the Baltimore Black Sox and the Bacharach Guants, the other teams in the League have a poor chance of winning a game against Hilldale. The result is that there is a lack of the competitive spirit among the other teams and this is lessening public interest in the league.
It seems that the only possible way for this interest to be reawakened is for Manager Bolden to sell off a few of his star players to the weaker clubs and thereby restore competition. Winters and Cockrell would bring big money in a sale to the New York representatives of the League.

In the first series with their local rivals, the Lincoln Giants were badly beaten in a double header on Sunday, May 31, at the Catholic Protectorial Oval. The Royal Giants won the first game by a score of 12-6 and the other 10-4. Manager Gans has been unable to strengthen his pitching staff and the morale of the Lincolnis is very low. Both games against the Royal's were played in a listless fashion. Roberts started in the opening contest on the mound for the Lincolnis, but he was wild and allowed six runs, in the first inning. He was succeeded by Johnson, who fared very little better and who was followed by Luther. The former Hilldale south-now pitched well until the last inning when four more runs were made off him Holland, a former Lincolnite, pitched for the Royals.
In the second game, the Royals
again got off at a good start by mak-
ing five runs in the first inning off
Evans. He was taken out and
"Stringbeans" Wilkens took his
place. Six home runs, two each by
Johnson Hill and Spearman, were
the features of this game.

Hildale Breaks Even With Balto. Black Sox
Philadelphia, Pa.—Before a holiday throng that jammed every nook and cranny of Hilldale Park on May 30 the league leaders split a twin bill with the Baltimore Sox. Hilldale won the first game 5 to 3, while the Marylanders copped the afternoon game, 7 to 3. In the morning setto, Reuben "Sprout's" Currie baffled the dark horsed crew, holding them to 6 hits and 3 tails. Only in one inning did the Baltimore clubbers threaten. This was a fourth, when John Beckwith "and Heavy" Johnson clouted out consecutive home run drives, Beckwith's clout came with one on the paths.
Hildale started after Britt right off the jump and scored three runs in the first frame, one counter in the third and one in the sixth decided the contest.
In the afternoon game the Black Sox clubbers knocked out 14 hits including five-doubles in the overflow; The Sox caused Nip Winters' retirement from the hill in the fifth inning after the Sox had chased over their fifth tally. Cockrell finished the game and the Sox put over two more runs in the ninth.
A couple of outstanding features of the games were that the win for the Black Sox in the afternoon marked the first win that the Black Sox have ever scored on the Hilladle fired. Pitcher Strong gained the honor of chasing the jinx. Out o f the four games that the clubs have played to date they have split even. George Britt has lost both of his starts to the Hilladle team, while Strong has gained both victories.

By DAROLD LEWIS (One Of The Boys)
It has been our estimate that if the ladies were admitted free to our ovales, it would greatly increase the patronage of the males. Where women congregate, men follow. That is an irrevocable rule of nature. The present attendance at our games in mostly limited to men. Ladies are in the minority. By establishing a free scale, for women, it goes without saying: the patronage will be trebled. Aside from this aspect, it instils a fighting spirit in the opposing teams, raising them from their fehargy to heights never before attained.
Every player excels himself before the opposite sex. That is the vanity of the male. This physiological side; of it also enhances the interest of the game, making it very satisfactory from a spectators standpoint. It is our aim that all games played hencefoward, will be open, free of admission, to the fair sex.
All together, Clubs, Sportsmen, such as you are, fill up those empty bewakes. Set a high attendance rate for the coming season. It is known that a few narrow, bigoted individuals, will be opposed to such, but they can easily be weeded out by those who have the welfare of the game at heart. Don't forget, Ladies bring the crowd...
At Pelham Bay, Oval the strong Surrey C, C, defeated Columbia Oval in a game featured by the fielding of Sears and the batting of R. Stout and J. Brathwaite, Gleditsa Star, making 16 and 18 respectively.
All-Barbados Have Mercy On New York Cricket League And Calls In For 200
Before an appreciative crowd numbering some 300, the All-Barbados dreamdought sailed over the N, Y, Cricket 1-league for the time of 200 for 3 wickets, to their opponents 98 for all. Enlivened by the boisterous applause and encouragement of Tucker, star comedian, the N, Y, C, League was unable to cope with the impregnable All-Barbados.
Barbados opened with Ll Alleyne and R. Hope facing the turns of Hunt, and the lobs of J. Robinson. Alyne was soon caught by Hunt, bowled by Crawford for 7. R. Hope was bowled by Bastian for 29. Edmund Hoyder, after sending showers of shots-flying over the fence, gave three chances, finally despatched the ball enough, and permitted himself to be caught, after accumulating a brilliant 78. Bacom bowled by Robinson, Reggie Allder following. Barbados was enjoying a carnival, nearly every ball seeming to have an unseen sceneous, in the sky. Dash in slashing style, putting his strength behind his immense shoulders, sending the ball repeatedly over the fence to join its predecessors. Failing to displace Dash and Allder, who was batting in exceptional style, 200 being on the boards, Capt. F. Hinds had pity on his opponents, their futility being apparent called in his tuns from their rough shot methods. Score, 200, including 5 extras
After a short intermission, Shoy and Martillh was sent to regain the host prestige of their team. I was not, to be one after another following the line of least resistance back to the showers. Martillh bowled for O by bid Holder J. Bassomh bowled by Holder for I. J Robinson bowled by Dash for I R Yearwood bowled by Holder for O. Allen Mayers related Holder on the feather, and turned in a great performance, gaining the convert price a gold mounted fountain pen donated by Hope T. Margetson, captain, confronted by the herculean task of stopping the All Barbados powerful machine made a splendid stand, and in his cool, smooth confident manner, did much to restore the game from the aspects of a slaughter. He contributed I1 before he was deprived of his wicket by Mayers, who was trending great gall
Barbados was airight on the field, George Hinds capering "rounding like a youngster, making all kinds of spectacular plays" George must have seen a monkey gland specialist He sure was rejuvenated Shoyo who was starring for his side as usual, was caught for 27 after playing a nicely balanced game. A Hunt following made a heroic effort, finally welding to sweet batter tossed by Mayer's Reggie Allder at this junction relieved Dash on the ball Fitzire Hinds, still a power to be reckoned with as among the greatest all around player of all June, playing a skip field second to none, picked up Bastian who followed Hunt in line style Holding on like grim death flat on the ground it is a joy to behold butz, back in form. More power to the old guard, that illustratus foods of old tuners Years of triumphs behind and still going strong The eyes of the world is on you lads Carry On Riley was caught by Allen bowled by Allder for 2 Classford bowled by Allder Henry stumped by Hope for 2 I McRay out for a run

Gleaners' Second Eleven Smothers the Defenders
Last Sunday, on Van Cortland Park, Gleaners second eleven, with the bulwark of its strength on the sidelines, defeated Defenders best almost doubling their score. The final reading was Gleaners 80 for 8 W. Defender 46 for all.
Capt. D. Bennett sent Defender to bat, and they were helpless before the trundling of himself and H. Donald. The first two batsmen were C. Perkins and C. Sears. Park. Was dismissed by the first ball bowled by Bennett. C. Sears following was caught, Donald bowling, after a fise stand for 17 runs. R. Stout, bowled by Donald for I run. Nightingale, caught by Crawford, bowled by Donald, for 12 R. Small bowled by Donald for O. H. Hunt, bowled by Donald for 4. J Devonish bowled for 3 by the first ball delivered by Donald. Donald was twirling in great style. A Lewis was run out for O.
After the usual respite, Archie Gittens and R. Miller was selected to begin the Gleaner offense, R. Miller after a cool, deliberate game that helped to break down the power of the bowling, was called out, L. B for 11, C. Perkins bowling, R. C. Ford bowled by Perkins for 5 G. Crawford bowled by Perkins for O. B. Wells bowled by Perkins for 2 Archie Gittens meanwhile batting a brilliant innings, making all manner of shots in his imitative style, was relieved of his wicket by a beauty of a ballet, delivered by H. Hunt. He really worked for it. No doubt Mr. Hunts arm will be in sling for the next few days (Gitts, is cruel on a bowler, Capt Bennett (the old master) after collecting 8, was caught by a sensational one hand catch in long off by Nightingale J. Brathwaite, after a prolonged stand, increasing his teams to total 18, was finally bowled by Sears, Sealey not out for 1 H. H. Donald, not out, for 1 completed the innings, L. McBayne was not played

Bledsoe Opens Studio
Julius Bledsoe, baritone, who has won high rank as a concert artist by the artistry of his singing and the charm of his voice, will accept a few talented pupils for instruction during the summer months. Mr. Bledsoe is in college, and can devote only the vacation period to this work.
His studio is at 80 Edgecombe avenue, apartment 45, and already he has several promising pupils under his tutelage. During the past season, Mr. Bledsoe appeared in recital in a downtown concert hall with splendid success. All of the metropolitan critics gave him high ranking, as a singer, with special regard given to the excellence of his vocal method.
This young singer has been an earnest, consistent student of singing for a number of years, and the thorough preparation he has received qualifies him to an exceptional degree as a teacher. His rates will be as reasonable as possible, and he will give each student an intensive course of personal instruction.
Besides' singing in New York, Mr. Bledsoe made a western tour, and dilicated the success attained locally. Reviewers of 'murial events in the cities where he appeared were unanimous in praise of his work. In Chicago, Devries, Moore, Dunn, and other of the critics were enthusiastic in commending his work. Glenn Dillard Dunn, for instance, in the Chicago Herald and Examiner, said that "His is the finest Negro voice yet heard in the concert halls of America." He is under the management of the S. Hurock Inc., agency, now occupying offices in the Manhattan Opera, House, and this office lists the young colored singer on its official stationery 'along' with Schumann-Heink, Chalipa, Mischa Elman, and the other great artists who are under its direction.

COLORED REVUE MAKES BEGT IN BERLIN
From The New York Sun
Berlin, May 28—The "Creole belles," as the dusky enryphess from New York's Plantation whose opening-performances in the "Chocolate Kiddles" serve on Monday night which scored a momentous success, are called, have been invited to compete in a beauty contest as Luna Park. Berlin's biggest amusement center.
This is characteristic of the amazing sensation created by the dusky entertaits off as well as in the stage here. The newspapers are lyric in their praise of the physical perfections of the plantation lassies, whose slim shapes are extolled as infinitely superior to the more beedy charms of the German chorus girls.
The members of the company are taking this audition calmly. They are much amused at the crowds waiting outside the stage door to graze enraptured upon the Afra-American artists. Last night the whole troupe were guests of honor at the Barbarina, a fashionable dance club. Gilded Berlin youths fought for the privilege of dancing with the musetto maids who seemed however to prefer partners of their own complexion. "They'll have us in society next," Margret Sims, the Revue's premiere danseuse observed with a dazzling grin.

"It was the philanthropic nature of the Medical Center and the part it will play in advancing medical science, rather than any prospect of direct return; that in
terested our members," he said.
"We are expanding our charity program and did not see any finer institution to aid than the Presbyterian Hospital which has always done so much for our people." The gift was made in spite of large expenditures which the lodge plans to make shortly in the erection of a combined club-house and apartments building. Exalted Ruler Steele is exceedingly popular in Harlem. He has held that office for four years and is being groomed for the office of Grand Exalted Ruler of the order at the national convention which will be held in Richmond, Va., on August 25th.
Rev. Bolden Secured Gift.
Rev. Richard Manuel Bolden of 103 West 130th street, a member of the Church Gifts Committee for Harlem in the Presbyterian Hospital campaign, received the subscription from the lodge. He said it was the first large gift to be made by a Harlem colored organization to a hospital for purely philanthropic purposes.
Rev. Richard Manuel Bolden of 105 West 130th street, a member of the Church Gifts Committee for Harlem in the Presbyterian Hospital campaign. received the subscription from the lodge. He said it was the first large gift to be made by a Harlem colored organization to a hospital for purely philanthropic purposes. "The colored people of Harlem feel grateful for the opportunity offered them to help in the building of this great Medical Center," he said. "We are happy to share the responsibility."
Interest Is Significant
The interest of Harlem Negroes in the new Presbyterian Hospital is significant since it was the illness of an aged colored woman more than fifty years ago that brought about the founding of the hospital at 70th and Madison avenue. The woman, a servant in the home of a prominent New York family, was taken ill and was in urgent need of hospital care. When the family doctor tried to place her in the institution he considered best suited for her case she was denied admission because of her color. He was so stirred by the discrimination that he reported it to James Lenox, one of the greatest philanthropists the city ever had. Mr Lenox called a meeting of several prominent men and they decided to build the Presbyterian Hospital "for the poor of New York without regard to race, creed or color." So outstanding was this policy it was inscribed on the cornerstone where it, may be seen by all today

Social Work Conference Discusses Negro In N. Y.
The New York Conference of Social Work, held at the Aldermastic Chambers, City Hall, devoted the entire session to a discussions of the Negro in New York City. The first speaker, Mrs. Gentrude McDougald, stressed the need for larger recognition of the colored industrial worker and advocated for the Negro woman and girl, a place in industry based on merit rather than color. James H. Hurbert, executive secretary, New York Urban League, declared that housing conditions in certain sections of Harlem and other parts of New York City are disgraceful; that the city should start condemnation proceedings compelling the owners either to remodel or demolish. Mr. Hubert declared that in the face of the present high rents and inadequate housing space in Harlem, there is a concerted effort on the part of property owners in the vicinity of 125th street to further restrict Negroes to a definite territory, establishing what he termed "the Negro Dead Line."
Dr. Kelly Miller, Dean of Howard University, asserted that the economic and social status of the Negro in this country is America's most perplexing question. He believed the Negro was better off in the country than in the city, but that the race as a whole could not be persuaded of that Mrs. Willard Parker of the eKaty Ferguson Board of Directors, presided.

The occasion was the fourteenth anniversary which was held in St. John's Parish Hall in Hudson street. Another feature of the program was a two-act playlet, "Flowers in the Palace Garden," rendered by the junior choir. Both plays were well rendered, and afforded an evening of pleasant entertainment. The unaccompanied adoring of "The Life of a Rose" by Geyer between Pat and Bridget in the operetta were exceptionally well done. A contest for the most popular lady present was conducted under the direction of W. Carter and L. Thigpqn. Mrs. V. Hill received the highest number of votes and was crowned the Queen of May. Miss Hilda Folkes, who came out second in the contest, was the recipient of a bouquet of flowers. The number was 1129. The general committee for the May festival was: Mrs. J. Parham, president; Mrs. B. Carter, secretary; W. Doswell treasurer; P. W. Mott, ticket committee; Rev. W. O. Hill, program committee; and Mrs. E. Mott, refreshment committee.

Although legal measures for the
orientation and control of venereal
care are established and enforced
by the unity authority and the State, each
should contribute its share of
matter and influence in order
to the opinion may secure des-
signation and its effectiveness.
The protection and maintenance of the public health make necessary certain laws for the sanitary control, infection affected persons, and treatment of certain diseases practically the states have laws restricting physicians to report to the local or State health departments, which they diagnose or treat. Such reports must include the name and address of patients with the name and address of patients When the patient fails to continue treatment he is reported to name and address. When so reported the health officer is required such reports control as the warrants. The State and local health officers are now quite generally empowered by law to make examination of persons reasonably suspected of being infected with such diseases, and the results of such examinations are known, to require persons infected with venereal disease to report for treatment to a *reputable person* and continue treatment uninterrupted. The patient is required at public expense until curled and, when in their judgment it necessary to protect the public health to insulate or quarantine persons infected with venereal disease and to protect of health regulations declare prostates to be protective carriers of venereal diseases and as such subject to examination and if necessary, quarantine. He constitutionality of these laws is not questioned by the laws of last resort in a number of states.
Also of importance in weneural disease control are effective laws for the such law prostitution in its various such law prostitution in its various particulars for which it falls not only upon the immediate participants in such practices but more particularly upon the business of prostitution to make the enforcement of such law usually supplementable to possible to close building which the business for purposes to public and public dance should be granted to taxation for "for hire" automobiles careful investigation and revoked on proof that have in any way added in investigation
have also been enacted in a number of the States prohibiting the employment of venetally diseased trainees in trades or occupations in the public health Legislation prohibiting the advertising and sale of venetally diseased or nostrums for the general diseases has been enacted by the courts as a proper police power on the behalf of the careful and continued care and reputable medical advisors concerned to the welfare of society in the infected individual States already have laws on advertising or sale of the child to be well cared for in legislation on the behalf of the States have such certification; States have laws aliming to the general infection, without a marriage license can be all male candidate.

Fowls of the Air
Beasts of the field and fowls of the air have tuberculosis.
It is strange that cattle and birds should have the very disease which claims so many humane victims. It is strange when we look upon this fact in the light of other facts such as the one which about us that tuberculosis is in many animals. It is strange in the crowded cliché of the world. People who live in the country are not so prone to contract the disease.
It might be said that the greater the congregation of human beings in a locality, the greater the changes for infection with the tubercle belliis, whenever there are alarms of falling more cases than outlying country, area, and in large corners. Children will find that the thinly populated districts have very few cases compared to the congested treatment sections.
If children are brought up in the crowds of a metropolis more than usual, precaution must be taken regarding their 'homes', that they may be sculpturiously clean, light and alrgy; regarding their food that it may be, always, abundant, regularly prepared, their step is taken, and that when health, remedial steps shall be taken at once.
When school duties seem too heavy, they must be cut down. When the children grow to college age and business is prevented from over-dressing, both in work and in social' consideration Health should be the primary consideration for without the education may be futile and the losses to families and communities and greatest forms of happiness.
If you have just moved from "the open spaces" into the city, then you must be more alert than ever against the danger of lowering resistance to tuberculosis. It is the virgin soil which contributes the largest crops. It is the uninfected youth which is the easiest victim for the germ of tuberculosis.

How the evangelical missionary, in Africa, untrained in medical or surreal knowledge, is often called upon to govern certain regions requiring expert skill made by the Rev. Kenneth M. Harkness of Macmillan, Sak Dak, missionary of the Missions, Episcopal Church in Manacas, Portuguese East Africa, regarding the treatment of a Negro girl attacked by an tyranna.
Mr. Harkness says: "It was three o'clock in the morning when they brought her to, our Methodist Episcopal Mission. For two hours they met him. He strengthened made of rough saplings labeled together with bark peeled from the trees.
She had been sleeping in a hut with some other small children. Like most native huts, it was a dainy affair made of needs laced together, supported on poles and plastered, over with mud. Above midnight a hyena, on the hunt for a meal, entered the hut to catch the scent of the sleeping children. It made quick work of the plastered barrier, and grabbing this little girl by the head tried to drag her from the hut. She tried to fight it off but only succeeded, in foosening its first hold on her scalp to have it set its foot on her. Then half dragging, half carrying her, the hyena started off through the brust.
"But by this time the other children had spread the alarm. The young men of the village...anched up...bringing brands from the smoldering fire and, guided by the screams of the child, follwed them up. The handcapped by the load which it was dragging and after a few minutes was overtaken by the men and had to abandon its prey in order to make good its own escape.
Mrs. Harkness and I could not do much in the night, so after analing the door, I could, we waited for daylight. I say we waited for daylight, but we had no idea what we could do when daylight did come. Our dispensary was only a native-built hut and the windstorm was sending a stream of sand and leaves through it. continually, we entered into a temporary hospital. The dining room table was dragged into the office out. This, when covered with a clean sheet, made our operating table. We had practically nothing in the line of instruments. But fortunately had we come on silk and sweeping from Johannesburg, a few months before.
"When we got the little girl on the table and washed the wounds by daylight we saw for the first time how bad they really were. A closer examination showed an ear norm near the ears and a nose norm couple of inches in the back of the shoulder and a set of teeth marks in the hand. It is useless for me to try to tell you how we sweed the wounds; but with a prayer for guidance, we set to work and with our crude instruments, (we had to pull the ear norm out of the toilever mobile pillars), we cleaned and sewed the lacerations. In ten days time most of the bandages were off and in a month the little girl had returned to her home. I am not doing justice to my story, however, unless I tell you how brave that little girl was, and how she was sewed her wounds—and she was not a day over ten years of age."

American Legionnaires In Memorial Day Parade
Co. William Hayward, who commanded the famous "Hellfighters" old 15th New York, in France was in the reviewing stand, for the Memorial Day parade and he is quoted as saying that the Col. Charles Young Post, No. 398, American Legion, commanded by Dr. M. V. Boutte, was the cleanest and snappiest group taking part In the commemorative function.
More than fifty per cent of the Post membership took part in the parade
The Chas, Young Post is retaining its position at top of the list for percentage of gains in paidub memberships. If the interest and results continue there is no doubt but that the Post will lead the parade during the State Convention to be held in New York City in September.
The Poppy Drive, conducted by the Post under the chairmanship of Wm. C. Anderson, assisted by the pretty girls of the Debutantes and Pierrettes Cubs was quite successful.
The Charles Young Post, with services at Grace Congregational Church, of which the Rev. A. C. Garner, chaplain of the 360th Infantry, N, Y, N, G, is pastor. Distinguisher speakers will take part in the service.
The next regular meeting of the Post will be held Tuesday, June 9, at headquarters. 2376 Seventh avenue.
