Hold Lads In $10,000 Bail For Taking Money Henry Brown, 19 of 34 West 135rd street and Henry Seabrooks, 17, of 70 West 142nd street were arranged in Washington Heights Court, Monday morning charged with robbery. Tracy Stubb, 106 West 134th street said that he was sitting in a table the night of January 14, when Brown and Seabrooks as his down door. He opened the door and put himself on the table, when he had known about him. He then sat down and began counting his money again. Brown walked up behind his chair, he alleged, and said "I want money." Stubb said he told the boys to go away and not bother him, as he was busy. The boy Brown again remarked "I want money, and I am going to get it tonight." Stubb then looked up and saw that Brown was holding a knife over his head. Stubb told the boy to take money, which amounted to $80, because the last three would take from him Brown and Seabrooks took the money and left the house. Stubb said that on February 11, he met Brown in the hallway of his home at 106 West 134th street when Brown held him up again and took 25 cents from him. He gave a police officer and took him to the home of Brown and had him arrested. The boys pleaded not guilty, but the police claimed them in $10,000 bail for Special Session. He then said "These boys should not be allowed to go free, because I believe they are guilty, and if they are given their liberty they will probably commit a more serious crime." caterer who had charge of the service, but was the result of a strike among the waiters who had been engaged for the occasion. However that did not mar to any extent the pleasures and enjoyment of the hotel staff and the affair. The manner in which the hall was decorated, and the pretty picture that the bouquets of roses and carnations made adorning the dining tables elicited complimentary comments from all the guests.

He had arrested Denvey Campbell, 8, Bidulician, 121 West, 132th street, who was charged by William Johnson, 2150 Seventh avenue, by blind musician, with stealing a cornet from him which was valued at 3125. There was entertainment on the final day of the evening on the opening of Fowler's blind musician, was number of the orchestra that formulated the music. After the entertainment, Johnson alleges that he handed the cornet to Campbell, requesting him to turn it over into the hands of the man of the house where the entertainment was given to keep for him until he needed it again, but that Campbell took the instrument on the pawn shop instead. Johnson complains that playing the cornet is his guilty pleasure, and that Campbell, has deprived him of earning his honest living. Principal P. S. 119, Marries Nebraska Man the many friends of Mrs Harriet A. Tupper will be surprised to hear of her marriage to Walkyn Ferris of Lincoln Nebraska, on Wednesday, February 3, 1926. Mrs Tupper has been well known in the educational circles of New York city because of her activities in matters legislative during the past twenty years. She gave great assistance in passing the following measures viz. the present pension law, the Compromise Law of 1919 the salary law of 1920 the Antin law affecting state teachers in 1923, the Dayton five year law and the Dayton five year law 1922. She has also assisted at the objections of many oncologists bills. She did pioneer work in organizing practically all types of special classes and is credited with originating the industrial classes so popular in junior high schools today. For the past eight years she has been principal of P.S. 119 Manhattan. Her work there has done much for the girls of Harlem. She has helped them to continue their studies in high school. she has smoothed their path there and she has provided them with exceptional training in hand work. The fact that the academic course was more cut than any type of pupil in her school thus made her a hard worker by lenthening the school day to six hours, obtained for Mrs Tupper the approbation of the entire community. Mr Ferris is one of the best known and respected merchants of Lincoln. He has completed the largest business in Oriental goods between San Francisco and Chicago for the past nineteen years. He is the finest in Lincoln. He has several children the oldest of whom is a prominent lawyer in New York City. Mrs Ferris is congratulated on her escape from the apartments of New York City, where she lives in a room for trees, flowers, and sunshine. May she be happy in her new home is the wish of the thousands of teachers in New York, who know her and love her. 3 Henrys Figure In $8 Hold-Up In Harlem Street Hold up men are playing safe since Hasten police and detectives have been cleaning up crooks by arresting men caught with concealed weapons and Henry Brown, 19 of 14 West 131st street and Henry Seabrook 70 West 142nd street used a pen knife Saturday in holding up and robbing Henry Stubbs 106 West 131st street. The three Henrys appeared in the Washington Heights court Monday morning for a hearing. Stubbs charged Brown and Seabrook with acting in concert and robbing him of 58 at the point of a sharp knife. The two men were apprehended shortly after the robbery by Detectives Boyden and Winterhalter of the West 135th street Detective Bureau. The Rev. A. Clayton Powell, pastor of Abbyssinian Baptist Church, who has been active since 1812, has returned from California. His weeks ago, he is much improved. Last Sunday he was able to sit up and enjoy this congregation and friends, Dr. E. P. Roberts, attending missionist, and Dr. Walter, G. Crummey, assisted specialists, and Dr. Lintley, L. O'Keech who have been attending Dr. Powell, state that he may be able to take his apartment. Dr. F. F. Foster will be several weeks before he will be able to resume his pastoral duties. Mrs. Mattie Powell, his wife, is the efficient nurse. Standing in the shadow of Henry Ward Becerle is portraying the Rev. Dr. J. Stanley Durkee, teacher to presidents 'apostate on Lancaster' from the pulpit of history, old Plymouth Church, Sunday, February 14. It was his first sermon since the tr捉ees of the church had opened him the permanent pastorate of Plymouth. Dr. Durkee has not decided whether he shall 'accept' the call. Should he do, he will be able to, to Brooklynn, minister to the will conceived by the president of the church. Durkee will carry the Plymouth Church pulpit every Sunday morning. A rainy day did not discourage the Church parishioners yesterday morning from greeting the minister who has been offered their pastorate. The church was well filled with many of Brooklyn's most well-known citizens. Dr. Durkee, a tall imposing looking man, with his college president's robe draped dignified about him, took off for the text of St Peter. "He also as Living Stones Are Built Up Into a Spiritual Temple." "There is personal road to success anywhere," he said. "A student is formed like a stone. Students are made by the process of pressure. Thank you for the pressures that come on you. We stand today between the birthdays of Lincoln and Washington. What made them great? Not easy jobs. Not peanut sending. It was the obstacles they had to overcome." Dr. Durkee described as "Gods man for the emergence." "I living stones tell the process of buding up," Dr. Durkee continued. "That is true about people just the same. If you are going to be a new you'll have to endure pressure." Governor Refused To Grant Clemency To Asheville Mobbists Abshole N. C.-Six thousand names were signed to a petition submitted to Governor McLean asking clemency for the white men convicted of more violence in storming the Buncombe Counts Jail when Mimi Manuel a Negro was held on a charge of assault on a woman. But the petition was turned down. Goo McLean, in retiring clemency said that the men refused clemency because "the prisoners sought to destroy the very processes of government upon which they now rely" and because the crime they committed was one of the most serious known to our law serious because the sovereignty of all the people is insulted by the mob when they tempted to take the law into their hands." Attorney R R Reynolds, counsel for the condemned white men, says he will continue his efforts to win a parole for the men or a leasening of their sentences. A report was circulated that the governor or had asked M. Cathy to investigate as to whether or not the families of the men or the woman were the man or denied that he had received such request and had no knowledge of the families in question. Gets Away From Snow And Ice For 3 Months In the Height Court this week Henry Hugh, the home was sentenced to three months in the work house for vagrancy. Hugh looked very much like a man who had just landed from the mugger. Anybody would declare that he was forty years old. He seemed very much unconcerned about his future, at least for the next three months. Welfare Worker Causes Indictment and Arrest Leaders of Religious Cult For Immorality Through the splendid work of Mrs. Byrd Robinson Harris, colored welfare worker, thirty-four members of the religious sect known as the Ever Living and Never Dying Church are under arrest on the charge of violating the White Slave Act. Indictments were found by a Federal grand jury and the arrests were made in Harlem Tuesday night, Fobert at 2367 Seventh avenue, 261 West 31st street, and 304 West 137th street. A complaint was first made against the practices of this organization three years ago, but no important evidence was discovered until the case was turned over to Mrs. Harris last fall. She visited the farm of the sect at Abecon, N. J., and alleges that there a number of young women have been outraged in pretended religious rites. These young women, it is said, were imported from all sections of the city and were persuaded to participate in the alleged acts by promises of eternal reward. Among, those arrested were Elder A J. Simons, leader of the cult; Hattie Jones and Benjamin Newman, two of his assistants. U. S. Attorney Emory R. Buckner, who is prosecuting the case, states that his agent and Ms. Harris have arrested those arrested. Their conviction will up the organization it is believed. The members arrested are being held without bail and were given a preliminary hearing in the Federal court on Wednesday. White Students In Florida Fight Mobs Tallahassee, Fla. — The student body of Florida State College for Women has entered the fight against lynching in the State by adopting and sending to Governor Martin a resolution protecting against such violations of law and justice, and widening the state's law enforcement and other officials in the effort to end the state's crime. The resolution, formulated by the executive committee of the Student Government Association and the W. W. cabinet, and endorsed by the student body, grew out of the lynching of a Negro near Tallahassee on August 1. "We realize that the resolution that responsibility for such violation of the law of the state and of the principles of Christian civilization rests upon citizens of Florida. As citizens of the state and present or future voters we deplore such violation of law and justice and assure son, the governor of Florida and heart support in the efforts you are making toward ending the state of this crime." Similar resolutions were adopted by the South Florida Dearborn of the Presidential Church. It is stated also that a petition to the governor asks an investigation of the recent actions being prepared by leading citizens of Florida and other sections Nine Pay Fines For Not Removing Snow Nine Pay Fines For Not Removing Snow It was a very well-known fact that when Washington Heights Court Monday morning for nine men who were charged with violation of the corporation law, The had failed to remove the snow from the sidewalk in front of their premises.

HARLEM HOSPITAL DOCTOR IS CHARGED WITH NEGLIGENCE IN HANDLING CHILD-BIRTH CASE Charges of gross negligence have been lodged against the staff of Harlem Hospital by Mrs. S. Fields of 217 West 142nd street. Mrs. Fields is mourning the death of a daughter, Mrs. Ruth Bell, which occurred Saturday, February 13, as a result of septic poisoning, following confinement at Harlem Hospital. Before her death the late Mrs. Bell suffered as probably few people have suffered. According to her mother's story, she was taken to the hospital about midnight on January 14. A doctor, said, to have been Dr. Lyons a resident physician, examined the prospective mother in one of the reception rooms after she arrived, then told Mrs. Hicks that she could take her daughter back home for a few days the late being home with the WEEKEND. Please do not call the hallway. Mrs. Fields insisted that her daughter remain in the hospital and a nurse gave her a cot in the back hallway. In less than an hour after the woman was placed ed on the cot, the baby was born. The nurse buriedied resummed the doctor, who it is charged operated without the use of gloves. The mother and her baby were placed in the maternity ward, but a few days later were removed to the ward for septic patients. There she remained until the mother's 31 when she was discharged Mrs. Hicks and a friend took Mrs. Bell the collipped after walking up the stairs. From that day until the day of her death, Mrs. Bell was confined to her bed with her condition growing steadily worse. During the last week, she had convulsions every hour. On Thurs- Watchman Turns Burglar; Steals From His Employer Watchman Turns Burglar; Steals From His Employer Charles Brown, 31, British West Indian 8 West 137th street, formerly a laborer and lately employed as night watchman at the Associated Laundry, 431 East Lighteenth street, was arranged in the Washington Heights court Thursday, February 11 and held in $1,000 bail on a charge of grand larceny. He is alleged to have stolen coats aprons, towels and other garments from the laundry where he was employed.

Hood stated to a representative of the Age him in an attestation that he was not the best health of that he was receiving health care.

The nurse buriedly resuscitated the doctor, who it is charged operated without the use of gloves. The mother and her baby were placed in the maternity ward, but a few days later were removed to the ward for septic patients. Three she remained until January 31 when she was discharged. Mrs. Hicks and a friend took Mrs. Bell home and resuscitated her week after collapsed after walking up the stairs. From that day until the day of her death, Mrs Bell was confined to her bed with her condition growing steadily worse. During the last week, she had convulsions every hour. On Thursday, a report came from the Age visited the dying woman. The convulsions she was breathing with great difficulty, getting her breath in gasses after the manner of a completely exhausted runner. The trained nurse, Mrs. Austin, (who gave her services free), explained that the poison was being circulated throughout her body. It was quite evident that the end was near. Baby In Serious Condition. The young baby is also in a serious condition and is likely to die also, due to infection received from its mother. The late Mrs Bell was about thirty years old and was the mother of the children she the child about ten. Her husband it is alleged, a nineteen and never supported his family. His wife for this reason was compelled to work at times when she should not have done so. Because of her economic circumstances, it is probable that she was in very poor physical condition when taken to the hospital. The widest colored doctors who had been physician for the family for years, is authority for the statement that the poisoning was directly traceable to neglect in the hospital. He refused, however, to permit his name to be used in the charges which Mrs Fildes is making against the hospital. He was called into the case a few days before that there was nothing the staff said. that there was nothing the staff said. and it was a waste of money to have him some. I remind of the family are urging that actual suit be instituted to recover damages for the hospital's alleged neglect. Dr M. J. Thornton superintendent stated to a representative of the Age that he did not think the hospital had been engaged thus case. The baby, he said, had been kept in the hospital to do tasks. The usual time is 8 to 10 days he completed. Wanted Rabbits, But Didn't Want To Pay From Metomb of 2247 Seventh avenue, had an appetite for the rabbit. That was the cause of all the trouble. He went Grasshandler peddler of East 11th street said that he was driving Seventh avenue with a load of rabbits. Metomb came out to the wagon and asked the price of the rabbit. Grasshandler paid $150 for the rabbits from the hands of the rabbits from the hands of the peddler and told him to one inside of the store at 2247 Seventh avenue and he would pay him for the same Grasshandler and that he refused because he did not like the hands of the place. He said that Metomb snatched the rabbits and ran into the store. Patrician Boyden who arrested Metomb said that when he went to store and seventh avenue Metomb met the rabbits when he paid $150 to the station house he said that he paid $150 for the rabbits. Metomb was charged with grand larceny and held in $1,000 bail for Special Session. --- Youths Trained In The Vocational School For Boys Face An Economical Problem Colored Boys Take Advantage of Learning Various Trades And Are Graduated Yearly With Sufficient Training To Enter Directly into The Big Shops Every summer, a number of colored youths are graduated fro mthe Vocational School for boys, 138th street and Fifth avenue, Charles I. Pleckest, principal, and sent out to the industrial world properly, trained to enter directly into the shops of the various trades, but unfortunately they soon learn that getting a job is a hard thing to do. tance working in a small shop of his own but the chances are that he may never be granted a master plumber's license. The class in sheet metal work—all branches—is trained in cornice- and skylight work, metal wnidow and door work, ventilation and exhaust work, auto-body work, marine sheet metal work, hotel restaurant and kit- In the classes of the Vocational School every boy enjoys equal opportunities in acquiring an education that prepares him for industrial work, distinguished from office work, but in the industrial centers the colored youth after having completed the courses faces business people who show special privileges to practically every other group but his own. There are more colored pouths in the class its automobile work than any of the others at the Vocational School. The course in automobile work covers maintenance, operating and repairing. All courses cover two years of ten months each, and the school hours are from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Jobs available for the boys who finish the automobile course are for the most part in garages or as chauffeurs; and there are limitations in those lines. Few enter into business for themselves and seldom is one employed in full capacity to work at his trade in the large scale automobile industry. Many Take Printing In the printing department of the Vocational School there are quite a few members of our group taking advantage of the courses which cover bookbinding, composition, estimation, imposition, linotype machine assembling, linotype operating, monotype operating, monotype casting, presswork and proof reading. Most of the boys that complete this course have local job plants on weekly race papers. They are capable of filling jobs in the printing department of the big dailies but let them try and get a job in one of them. There are a few isolated plants that give colored pressmen and linotype operators a chance but those jobs constitute but a small unit in one of the big wheels of industry. The wood work class trains the youth in cabinetry and bench woodworking and construction, use of wood milling machinery and wood turning. Work in this field is for adults. Colored boys are trained in this department of the Vocational School and there is a large number of cokies employed in the limitations of the colored man in the building trades. Nexroes In Unions Charles S Johnson, research director of the Urban League recently made a survey of the industrial and social life of Negro workers He submitted a report at the recent National Urban League Conference which contained a statement that out of 34,217 Negro carpenters there were 592 belonging to the union. He also reported that the Carpenters Union was one of the unions that admitted colored workers but did not encourage their membership. Social and welfare workers encourage colored youths to prepare to use the Vocational School in which one of its main objects is to accustom the boy to the realities of the business world. They do not acquaint him with conditions of commercial and social exploitation. There are organizations that have the interest of the race at heart and are spreading knowledge, broadening the visions and awakening the human impulses of the wage earners the wage program of their social system is insecure, and defends the great work that is accomplished by them yearly. Small Protection For Negroes Many graduates from the Vocational School who have tried to solve the economic problem confronting them after entering into the commercial and industrial fields express their feeling that standards are set by every community and laws give but little protection to the colored working justice and equality in job-getting. They have demanded a square deal from employers, and have come to realize that the white employers hold the economic power. They know that he controls the machinery of production, the railway system, financial institutions, manufacturing enterprises and other resources. The theoretically the Negro is a potent factor by means of the ballot, as a tax payer and the other raw material, practically the other race controls franchises, land values and the social institutions. It is true that the Negro has passed through a number of stages of advancement in trades and skilled work but it appears that he must develop his own fields of commerce and industry since the whites are organized to protect the jobs that they have made for themselves. Colored boys take the course in plumbing at the Vocational School and also the course in forging and blacksmithing. Mr. Johnson in his report to the Urban League conference stated that "Blacksmiths permit Negro helpers auxiliaries but prevent promotion and do not admit Negro helpers in shops where white men are employed." The Plumber's Union His report stated that the Plumbers and Steamfitters Union discouraged Negro members but did not have constitutional hars. His report further stated that Chicago Negro plumbers had tried six years to enter the union. A colored boy trained in the plumbing class may go out into the business world and eke out an exit. colored the Vocab in street Pickets, the工业 enter various soon a hard educational operational education work but colored the life who technically tance work in a small shop of his own but the classes that he may never be granted a master plumber's license. The class in sheet metal work—all branches—is trained in cornece and skight work, metal window and door work, ventilation and exhaust work, auto-body work, marine sheet metal work, hotel restaurant and kitchen work. The course in electrical wiring and installing trains the youth in amusement wiring, automobile wiring, bell wiring, that wiring, electrical light and power wiring, motor and dynamo work, storage battery work, telephone work, use of measuring instruments, and wireless telegraphy. Mr. Johnson's report states that the Electrical Workers, Union and the Sheet Metal Workers' Union discourage Negro members. He lists eleven unions of the American Federation of Railwomen, among them being railway telegraphers, commercial telegraphers and railway mail association. No Chance As Pattern Makers Pattern making and foundry practice is another course at the Vocational School but it is practically out of the question to discuss the colored man's chances as a pattern maker. Besides, there are few people in that particular trade and it has not known a more important aspect of years. Machine shop practice is taught. That is a trade of a great industry but unlimited number of restrictions keep the colored man out of machine shops as a regular machinist or skilled workman. Architectural drawing and mechanical drawing are other courses taught there. It is well known that colored men earning a living as architects few years ahead to find a colored man draughting the mechanical rooms of the well established firms. Commercial and industrial design trains young men for a wide field. In that line is employment for artists who draw posters as are seen in subway advertising, on "L." stations and in magazine advertising. Also designs for shoes, dresses, furniture and display advertising requiring both line cuts and color plates. One suggestion for the colored youth who is not admitted to either the quarters of the big advertising agencies or the manufacturing plants is the practice of "peddling" his drawings to manufacturers. There are chances of selling a good design to cigar and cigaret manufacturers, and perhaps to the manufacturers of patient medicines, as well as numerous other enterprises. Course In Die Making Modelling in clay, plaster, wax, etc, trains the boy in die making, ornamental metal work, stonecutters' models, terra cotta work, etc. It is pretty certain that if a colored boy trained in the Vocational School was put to work among stone cutters the white workers would fail to report for work the next morning. There is a general restriction against mixed shops and certain unions exclude colored members while others admit them in separate locals or admit them to membership and then disavage white members and then discourage them. It is the opinion of tradesmen who are suffering from the effects of these limitations in job-getting that ministers, educators, business men and others who advise vocational training for the colored youth ought suggest what steps should be taken to make a place for the skilled worker so that he may earn equal pay, and enjoy working conditions as good as are provided for other workers. Demands, resolutions and numerous complaints have failed to place the trained colored craftsman on a path with this white fellow workman. The United States exceeds $250,000,000,000 in the white exercise arbitrary control in commerce, industries and business. Kind hearted white friends contribute millions to provide the race with colleges, churches, and various institutions but none of our group has induced the white philanthropists to finance or foundry, factory, machine or any other big business where large amounts of trademen and skilled workers can find employment without limitations. Women Show Way In Business Certain colored women have shown the world how it was possible to build up a profitable business in manufacturing beauty preparations and toilet articles. Their plants have established jobs for our women where there are no union barriers. The girls who dress hair and practice facial treatment suffer no restriction of rules and regulation foisted by prejudiced whites who want jobs for themselves. Another statement in the report that Mr. Johnson submitted to the Urban League precedence lists unnone admitting Negroes solely in separate locals only as musicians with 3,000 Negroes; hotel and restaurant workers with 1,000 Negroes; nurses, men barbers, laundry workers, tobacco workers, United Textile Workers, cooks and waiters, and American Federation of Teachers. The vocational school for boys supplies everything necessary for the work and there is no charge of any kind. There are no home lessons. Boys are not admitted unless their records show them to be of good moral character, worthy of commendation in effort and intelligence. One student is obligent to become efficient in anything. Boys are admitted only after they have completed one of the elementary schools in New York and they are sent to the vocational school from all sections of the city. Forced IntA Business The colored youth trained in this Vocational School of New York and industrial schools, in other parts of this country, even were and the large number ofcolored students in the country have developed a situation in which the supply of trained Negro workers is much greater than the demand. On that account many of them are forced to enter into business for themselves despite the fact that they do not receive patronage from the general public. Since their work comes from one particular group in many instances and is often restricted to the immediate community, which the shop-owner lives, the shop-man lives, the shop-helper lives, the shop-hop has been unable to build a big business for 'such' big jobs or large contracts from the great business enterprises that build up the white industries. It appears that until Negroes have developed, a field of industry for themselves and until they are properly organized in the various trades, the skilled workers, more so than our own, have come to suffer endless limitation in the industrial centers and become discouraged in their social life. N. J. Colored Women's Republican Club Holds Quarterly Conference Princeton, N. J.

New Cottage For School Head's 40th Anniversary Sparta, Ga.—As a fitting celebration on their fiftyth anniversary, a campaign is projected to build a cottage for *Principal* Linton S. Ingraham and Mrs. Ingraham, of the Sparta Agricultural and Industrial Institute, that they may in their later years enjoy some measure of quietness and restfulness which they have sacrificed during the past fifteen years of effort and sacrifice toward the building and strengthening of the school which they founded. In their devotion to the work of providing educational facilities for the children of the race in this locality, Mr. and Mrs. Ingraham gave up their own home and for fifteen years made their home in the school dormitory, thus every energy to the uphift of the race. The work of the school has won commendation and support from friends of both races, North and South, and the movement to provide a separate home for the principal and his wife is being cordially supported. It is hoped that the work will be completed during this year. College Deans-Registrars To Confer at Greensboro By N. C. WEBSTER Greensboro, N.

Chicago, Ill.—It is apparent that the International SUNY School Convention to be held in Birmingham, Ala., April 2015, will be Negregte Negrete Negeldele, if any attends. The International Sunday School Convention is the quadrennial convention of the International Council of Religious Education with headquarters in Chicago Ill. Dr. W. O. Thompson of Columbia Ohio president of Ohio State University is president of the convention; Dr. Hugh S. Magill of Chicago, Ill., formerly secretary of the National Education Association is the general secretary; and Dr. Robert M. Hopkins of St. Louis, Mo., is the chairman of the International Council. This will be the first great religious education convention held in America, officially participated in by thirty-five cooperating committees represented in the International Council. The conventions of the past have been largely composed of delegates from state and provincial associations. The program of the Convention will include addresses by leading statesmen of the United States and Canada who recognize the supreme importance of the religious training of childhood and youth and addresses by the greatest leaders in religious education representing the Protestant forces of the continent. The theme of the convention is "Building together a Christian Citizenship." The significance of this Convention is evident by the fact that President Calvin Coolidge has accepted an invitation to attend and deliver an address. Negroes Given Gallery The Birmingham committee arraigned for all Negro delegates to sit in the gallery. Upon receipt of that information, Negro subcommittees (Birmingham) in a formal statement, under date of December 16, 1925 "withdrew from all cooperation with the convention." The letter was addressed to the local committee and signed for the Negro organization by Bishop B G. Shaw of the A. M E. Z. Eton Church, the Rev. E C. Laurence, pastor of the Congregational Church the Rev. C. L. Fisher pastor of the Sixteenth Street Baptist Church; and the Rev P W Walls, pastor of the A M E. E. Church. Negroes have a threefold connection with the International Council of Religious Education. They hold membership in twelve or more State Councils of Religion in each of which they are represented on the State Executive or Education Committee and are therefore eligible to represent their state in the quadrennial convention. Five distinct Negro denominations hold membership in the International Council of the Episcopal Church, the National Baptist (incorporated). National Baptist (incorporated). The Negro is also eligible to membership in the quota from each denomination having white and Negro members, such as Methodist Episcopal, Congregational Presbyterian, Disciples, and others. Negro Leaders Gutraged An attempt was made to segregate Negroes in the Kansas City Mo. Convention in 1926 where the International Council was formed by a merger of the International Sunday School Association and the Standard School Council of Evangelical Denominations. The Negro delegates presented a memorial to the executive committee who immediately voted to instruct the local committee to countermand the order Negro representatives have participated in all the meetings of the International Council since without any restrictions whatever. The majority of Negro leaders in the religious education of Kansas State University shouted at the Protestant leaders for any arbitrary reason attempt to segregate any cooperating state or denomination's representatives because of their race or color. It is probable that several denominations and State Councils will not certify delegates to the Birmingham convention if segregation obtains A. M. E. Church Issues Statement "The African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church is one of the thirty-five cooperating denominations of the Internationale Council of Religious Education and has been allotted a quota of fifty delegates. Unless its representatives are assured the rights and privileges of representatve test Colored Leader Stirs Atlanta With Message Atlanta Ga — Appearing here with Sherwood Eddy, Dr Alva Taylor, J Stut Wilson, and other nationally known figures, in a series of meetings constituting "Religious Emphasis Week Dr Mordreau Johnson, of Charleston, W Va., spoke to thousands of people in leading white and colored churches, and made a tremendous impression by his plea for the establishment of Christian principles to race relations. Dr Johnson expressed the opinion that the South is in position to make a contribution of the greatest importance to the nation and to the world through the solution of its race problem "This is no longer a southern problem," he said, but is found throughout the nation and around the world. What we do here toward the solution therefore, and what now seems to us a heavy burden and responsibility may become our crown of fame and usefulness. "Jesus, during His life time faced a problem very similar to our own, he continued, "Living as He did among a people seething with racial antagonism and revolutionary sentiment. In this situation, Jesus held violence to be utterly futile and admonished His followers that they could win only by the use of spiritual weapons and only after they had first won themselves to Christ like attitudes. The same thing is equally true today. The race problem can be solved only by applying these basic principles, which Jesus preached and taught. (1) The presence for human life, for its own sake which will make us unwilling to harm or humiliate or hinder the development of any human being. (2) The obligation to help every human being in need, irrespective of race or class. (3) A spirit that does not harbor hate or retaliation, but returns good for evil and wins its enemies by the compelling power of one. of other cooperating denominations in the convention, it will have no official representation in the Birmingham convention. "This statement is made in fairness to our constituents, a number of whom are making inquiries, and preparing to attend the Birmingham convention. "We have waited more than one year for officers of the International Council of Religious Education to assure that the position taken by the executive committee in the Kansas City, Mo. convention in 1922 would be followed in the Brigham convention in 1923, and in conference with the chairman of the Birmingham convention in Nebraska, Tenn., January 7, where the question of seating Negro delegates was discussed. Our representative, with those of four other Negro demographics, referred from issuing any statement before now, awaiting a meeting with the Birmingham committee on January 25. Having received a notice of our meeting on February 8, we obviously unfair to our progressive delegates and their trustees who are asking them to wooilid a statement of our position longer. "We are informed by the International officers that: Birmingham has an ordinance prescribing, seats for Negroes in the city's auditorium where the International convention will be held. The committee in Birmingham (white) arranging for the convention notified the Negro section of the committee, that the gallery has been designated for all Negro delegates, whereupon the Negro section of the committee withdrew from further cooperation. This statement is issued by the Religious Education Department of the A.M. E. Zich Church with headquarters at 438 East 46th street, Chicago, Ill. in order to warn any prospective delegates that segregation of seams is probable in Birmingham and also that in the event it obtains, it will certify no delegates."

Smithy who live at 200 West 139th street. The business of the mythical agent is a very prosperous one, judging from the scores of women who claim that they have been swindled by him. This man goes to the homes of women in Harlem who are in need of work, and his first step is to find out whether or not they are willing to deposit a sum of money for a position. When the money is paid, the victim is given the name and the person with whom they do their business, and in search of the places, sometimes they find a vacant lot, and sometimes the address is in the North River. After these women fail to find the address given them by this employment agent, they come to the home of Mrs. S. A. Smith, at 209 West 193rd street, the address given by the pseudo agent, and ask to speak to Mrs. Smith's husband, but as soon as Mr. Smith is seen, they know that he is not the man who swindled them. Then the same story is told that twenty or thirty women have told during the past few months. They say that a short dark man, with mixed grey hair has collected money from them for a promised position which would pay them four or five times more than they had earned before. This man uses the name and address of Mr. Smith to carry on his fake game. Mr. and Mrs. S. A. Smith of 209 West 193rd street, owners of the house are unable to locate the man who is using their name and address to fake the women of Harlem out of hundreds of dollars.

Fifth, Lenox, Seventh and Eighth avenues are said to be thick with "numbers" bankers and runners, and the harm accruing from the prevalence of the game is in the fact that many of the addicts are not able to afford to put their money into it.

Judge Strong Says North Needs Negroes Supreme Court Justice Strong speaking Sunday afternoon before 400 white and colored persons at a "race relations meeting" of the Carlton Avenue Branch, Y. M., C. A Brooklyn, declared that in contrast with the South, the North offers the greater opportunity for the colored man and in consideration of this fact an effort should be made to shift the colored population northward. "Since the Civil War the intellectual and economic progress of the Negroes in the north has been remarkable," Justice Strong told his audience. "In the South progress has been slower. "It would be a simple thing to bring the colored people up north and let them take advantage of the opportunities offered to colored people here." Economic Questions Involved In addition to the human interest there is an economic question involved, Justice Strong continued. The effect of the proposed transportation upon labor would in no way be undesirable, he added. "It is said that labor is scarce because of the immigration laws," Justies, Strong said. "The Negroes, all first class Americans, would easily be able to fill all the openings if they were brought north where the demand is greatest." Rabbie Alexander Lyons, of the Eighth Avenue Temple, and the Rev. Dr. E. E. Tyler, pastor of the Bridge Street A. M. E. Church, were the other speakers on "The Fundamental Feelings and Attitude of White and Colored People in Relations to the Race Question." Dr Lyons urged co-operation between the white and colored peoples in the interest of both races. He said too much has been said and too little done toward bringing about a better understanding between the two races. Dr Tyler stressed the importance of the economic question. He said the Negro is justified in demanding equality and thus he is gradually achieving. Dr Jesse F. Moorland, chairman of the board of managers of the "Y", was chairman A L. Comither, executive secretary of the branch, spoke on the work of the branch and announced that one of the biggest events planned by the "Y" will be the chorus recital to be given April 8 at the Academy of Music.

Children That Play In Streets To See Movies After School Historical Films Will Be Furnished By Board Of Education Acting upon the suggestion in an editorial appearing in The New York Age, issue of February 13, under the head of "The Little Girl With. The Key" accommitee from the North Harlem Community Council called on the Board of Education and won their approval of the plan to look after the welfare of school children whose mothers are away at work when their children come home from school. The Board of Education suggests that the North Harlem Community Council, which meets every Tuesday evening in P. S. 89, inaugurate their plans by beginning with the child durschool hours and later extending the program to look after his interest after school hours. The manager of the Roorevelt, New Douglas' and Odeon Theatres has agreed to the use of his theatre beginning Friday, February 26, and every Friday thereafter to exhibit films for school children at 10 cents admission. The films are to be furnished by the Board of Education, and the Community Council, with headquarters in the City Hall, will send them up to the local play house. The picture will be "The Chronicles of America," (a series of historical films), an industrial film and a good comedy. Half of the proceeds of the show each week will be donated to the school to provide hot lunches for children at the lowest possible cost. Preparations have been made to seat 600 children and they will buy tickets from their teachers and be chaperoned to and from the theatre by teachers. If the furnishing of hot lunches at a low cost to children can be successfully carried out by means of raising funds at a movie show given once a week upon the approval of the Board of Education it has been promised appropriations for establishing permanently the lunch system will be included in the school budget in April. The new Junior High School, St. Nicholas avenue and 135th street has a cafeteria operating now that is financed by the Board of Education, and P. S. 90 has a lunch system by which it is feeding under nourished small children, finance coming from a private fund. Until the lunch plan during school hours has been successfully carried out children can not be provided for when they are dismissed for the day because it would cost $6 a day to open the school after closing-hours. The Community Council reports that it has been promised four teachers to supervise children's play and help them prepare their lesson in the school house after they have been dismissed, when provision for taking care of the children of working parents after school hours has been made.

If You Want Your Hair to be Long, Straight, Silky and Look Its Best, Use Pluko If You Want Your Hair to be Long, Straight. Silky and Look Its Best, Use Pluko "Better Babies" By Dr. Alonzo deG. Smith Those whose specialty it is to study the mind we call psychologists. One of these, John B. Watson, in his book on "Behavior" tells us that there are just three middles of instinctive reactions indicating the expressions of the emotions. These are rage, love and fear. You are familiar with the case with which one may excite the infant to cry. Even the restraining clothes will provoke a loud wail. The child is constantly met with rebuffs in his daily life. His diaper is wet and he wighes to be dry. The milk does not flow freely from the bottle, or the breast. He is hungry and cannot get the food himself. He is thirsty and cannot drink. He is in pain and cannot help himself. He wants to be fondled and no one pays attention to him. He is sleepy but the laughter and noise of his olders disturb him. He is tired of lying in one position but is unable to turn over. He is frightened and cannot rid himself of the offending stimulus. He is angry about something and cannot "have his way." All these things result in crying which is an expression of baffled helplessness and inefficient self-pity. When he gets older there are other restraining forces—his parents. He must subject his will to threes. May he be is constantly teased. So is anger born and developed. We must strive to check this provided in so doing we do not "spoil the child." A cooling bath and clean comfortable clothing and food regularly, with undisturbed sleep, will assist in the case of the infant. In older children the impulse to anger may be turned aside by the soothing voice or laughter, seeing and making the older child see if possible the funny side of the baffling situation. Still older children may have such misdirected energy led into channels of physical exercise. A child's mind is easily diverted from one thing to another so it is not difficult to redirect his emotions. Perhaps no phase of human life is so full of opportunity for the experiencing of heaven or hell here on earth than that of the phenomenon which we call Love, but which for the purpose of this article we shall call Sex. Perhaps, too, there is no adult who are some time or other has not had to wrestle with himself or herself against instinctive sex impulses. We often ignore the fact that such tendencies manifest themselves very early in childhood and that the future life of the child may be marred or benefitted by proper instruction and knowledge concerning these outbursts. Many parents are lead by false modesty to neglect the very important parental duty of giving such instruction. Many parents are not themselves capable to give such in the manner least likely to do harm. What would you do in a case like this that was presented to me. And what do you think the probable cause of such early sex-interest? A little girl of five years was found in questionable relationship with a boy of seven. It was revealed that the girl had instructed the boy what to do. Where in the world did these kids get their information? Children have eyes and alert ears—they are "all eyes and ears.

What can we suspect when the whole family lives in one room? What can you expect when children are forced to sleep with their parents. What can you expect when parents are not mindful of their duties in such matters? What can you expect when parents themselves are misinformed. That is why we are writing these articles. There are two phases to sex-expression. One has to do with the physical reactions such as certain sensations, muscular responses and glandular activity. The other is non-physical and embraces the imagination, thoughts of romance, the whole complex mental condition which you as an adult know in the sense that you too have experienced such (maybe) At least we hope you have. It is said that a person changes every seven years thus being in some way different at seven, fourteen and twenty-one. There is a physiological truth in this. The sex-life is for convenience of study, divided into three periods. The first, the neutral period extending from birth to three, or five and sometimes seven years. The second period, the undifferentiated stage, from the end of the first to the onset of puberty, that is up to about fourteen years. The third or developmental period begins from eleven or fourteen and extends to the time of full maturity. We will attempt next week to explain these periods and their manifestations to you.

That was a remarkable tribute that Mayor Walker took occasion to pay Commissioner Ferdinand Q Morton, when he spoke at one of the sessions of the National Urban League, held in Harlem. The Mayor not only referred in high terms to the ability of Mr. Morton as a lawyer, but praised his work as a member of the Municipal Civil Service Commission. Mayor Walker further emphasized the statement that so long as he occupied the mayoralty Mr. Morton would be retained as a member of his cabinet That is the reward of a successful administrator so to conduct the affairs of the office in which he is placed, as to merit retention or promotion under a new chief executive. The Civil Service Commission of the City of New York is charged with great responsibilities in the selection of the thousands of employees to conduct the affairs of the greatest corporation of its kind. The Commission must arrange for the tests to determine the mental and physical capacity of all applicants to fill the positions for which they may apply. The perceptible improvement in the grade and quality of municipal service marked at late years is lauded. The work of this commission. reform was that by public tests and examinations the appointments to public service should be taken out of politics so as to keep unfit appointees out of office and to appoint only those capable of rendering adequate service. This has been accomplished to a certain extent hence the improvement in the quality of the service rendered to the city and the taxpayers. At the same time it has been found not inconsistent with the public interest that political workers who contribute to the party at the polls, may qualify as candidates for places in the public service. The same qualities that make a man a good political worker, often render him useful in position of public service for which he is otherwise qualified. To recognize the times conflicting demands of parts of a state and public service requires a high degree of trust and diplomacy on the part of those charged with the administration of civil service affairs. That Commission has met the requirements of the law in these respects is quite evident from the encounters passed upon by Mayor Walker. THE WAY TO STOP LYNCHING. Oil theft lessons in the way of how to stop or prevent it have been presented in several states during the past week or so. Ken tue the out that the same soldiers to get the thief during the trial had been charged with murder. Also the State multia, an allow trade and goods were added to the decree and the equipment to prevent threatened action by the mob in an attempt to the person. It also only over the state the person was sentenced to the state. Laws are in effect the next example of law enforcement which is the first time since the end of the war of match said a court in which a white man escaped legal charge and being Bavonets in the hands of state troopers and the determination of a few officers saved the prisoner from the captors who had tried to take him prisoner before trial. He was convicted of degree murder and sentenced to life imprisonment which in I am sure can take years. The prisoner was accused of meeting his employer and having a defense. In Florida, where the first lynching of 1926 was held at Ocala, January 11, the student body at the Florida State College for Wo- men, a white institution, entered the fight against lynching by sending to Governor Martin a resolution protesting against "such violations of law and" Justice." Responsibility for such violation of law and of the principles of Christian civilization was stated to rest upon the citizens of Florida, and the Governor was assured of hearty support in his efforts toward ridding the State of this crime. Similar resolutions were adopted by the South Florida Diocese of the Episcopal Church. Resolutions are all very well in their way, but the Governor of Florida will have to use soldiers and guns, artillery and tanks, tear bombs and all the other offensive and defensive devices of war, to convince the Florida mobblists that he is really opposed to lynching. The only argument that a mob understands or reacts is the argument of force, fearlessly and relentlessly applied. Let the Florida authorities profit by the example of Kentucky, Louisiana and Delaware. SENATOR PAT HARRISON A special dispatch to the New York World stated that an effort to induce Senator Pat Harrison to manifest an interest in the reports that Negro politicians in Mississippi are selling jobs has failed. It resulted in a controversy between him and former Representative Jamieson of Iowa, at one time connected with the Democratic National Committee, and in a recent news letter, Mr. Jamieson said that Senator Harrison had made no attempt to correct the situation. This is strange, as Senator Pat Harrison rarely misses any chance to excoriate Republican rule or to point out the failings of Negroes, whether in politics or in any other relation except as peoec and stool pigeons for their white taskmasters. The dispatch further stated that Senator Harrison has taken the position that the troubles among the Republican groups in his State grew out of bitter controversies and he has not seen fit to become involved in them. This is suspiciously high ground for a Southern statesman of Pat Harrison's calibre to be guilty of assuming. What is the real reason for this "high-hat attitude? WEAK DISTRICT ORGANIZATIONS. One of the reasons for the decline of the Republican vote in New York City is the weakness of many of the district organizations. The desire of the average district leader is for political power, rather than for an active and live membership in the association. It is too generally overlooked or forgotten that the power wielded through a small and exclusive membership, while easy to control and manipulate, falls short of electing candidates at the polls. With a small membership, the district leader finds its easier to parcel out the available patronage among his political favorites, regardless of the future prospects of the party. If the Republican party is to survive as an active organization in this city, it must have more district leaders with broader vision, bent on building up the party into a solid phalanx of voters. They must be prepared to tackle the job in real earnest and on every day of the year. They must be ready to welcome into the party ranks all conditions and classes of voters, regardless of race, color or condition, so long as they are earnest in support of the party principles and its candidates. The leaders cannot afford to treat these voters to a welcome of three fingers during the campaign, and then ignore them totally after the election is over. The secret of Democratic success in New York City politics has been the establishment and the keeping up of human contacts between the mass of the common people and the district leaders. These leaders from the highest to the least of them, are never too busy to see a voter, or a possible voter and to display a human interest in his concerns. Republicans should take a leaf from this book of political management and learn how to build up a real living political machine, that would be ready to function for the good of the party In this program of aggressive party building they should take into account the districts in which the Negro voters form an element necessary to party success. This group should be accorded the same treatment due any other class of voters on the basis of their numbents. They should be given the same representation in party councils and party leadership, and the same proportion of political patronage as any other group of voters. They ask for no more and they should accept no less. The first step in party success is to strengthen the weak points of district or organization RACE ILLS ARE ECONOMIC That many of the oils that beset the Negro in the struggle for existence are largely economic in their nature has been admitted by thoughtful students of both races, and especially by those who view the question from an impartial viewpoint. Even the action of the City Council of Atlanta, in prohibiting Negro barbers from shaving white customers, is now conceded to be in the interest of the white barbers, who are envious of the financial rewards reaped by the Negro owners of the large barber shops in that city. The excuse for such an ordinance was that of sanitation, but it was entirely too gauzy. loss An ammoni men vanta A more serious case of this kind is the report prepared by a committee of the Cleveland Chamber of Commerce, taking an adverse stand against the migration of workers from the South to be used in the industries of the North, and recommending the relaxing of the laws restricting foreign immigration, on the ground that the Nordic workers of Europe are to be preferred to the Negroes of the South. While this report had not yet been acted upon by the Cleveland Chamber, its intent is clearly to deprive the Negro of the economic advantages resulting upon his entrance into Northern industry. Another phase of this industrial question is the complaints arising in certain factories that the Negroes employed too often turn out to be careless and inefficient workers. A certain percentage of carelessness and inefficiency is to be expected in any class of labor taken as a group, without selective examination. But too great a proportion of this sort of workers renders the turn-over of labor too large and too costly to suit good business management. It is up to our workers to acquire the necessary training to fit them for their jobs as quickly as possible and to exercise care and become proficient at the tasks assigned them, if they expect to make sure their places in any industry that affords them an opening. It is never too early for the youth of the race to take advantage of every possible opening to enter the industrial field. There is need of our boys in Harlem grasping the opportunities afforded them at the Trade School in 138th street. Here they may acquire the foundation for the mastery of a trade, that will give them the means of earning a livelihood and ensure them a sure and solid economic standing in the community. The training of the hand and brain is equivalent to so much capital invested. Such training will pay dividends to its possessor, so long as he chooses to exercise it. Most of the ills of the race are economic. They can be dispelled by facing the facts with determination to win, regardless of all obstacles. But to win needs persistent effort in the right direction. DOCTORS AND DISEASE. The oldtime notion that the only time when the doctor's services were needed was when the grip of disease had firmly fastened upon the patient, is fast being exploded. The function of the modern physician is gradually being recognized as including the prevention of disease, as well as its treatment and cure. The Chinese are said to have originated this theory centuries ago by their practice of paying the doctor while the patient retained his health and stopping payment when disease obtained a foothold. The value of preventive measures has been settled beyond dispute by the establishment of public health service by the national, state and municipal authorities to war against disease. Notwithstanding the preventive measures instituted through public authority and by such private institutions as the Rockefeller Foundation, there is still room for the private practitioner to aid in fighting the inroads of disease. The congestion of population on large cities has augmented the prevalence of many communicable diseases and there is grave need of exercising every precaution to avoid spreading them through the community. As a demonstration of what could be accomplished along these lines of prevention Dr. Louis I. Harris Health Commissioner of the City of New York, made some valuable suggestions before a session of the National Urban League at its recent conference in this city. He told how a few years ago the rate of mortality among the Jews in congested districts on the East Side was 54 in every 1000. Improved conditions, housing and sanitation reduced this death rate to 40 in every 1000. According to the vital statistics including the congested section of Harlem the death rate is 165 in each 1000 of population. Housing conditions including overcrowded rooms and lack of sanitary precautions are among the reasons assigned to this excessive mortality. Harlem doctors could do much to alleviate the conditions which lead to the spread of disease and premature deaths. While they cannot remedy the congestion of housing conditions which can only be relieved by additional building and distributing the population above could be given how to make present conditions more healthful. There are some eighty physicians of the race located in New York who should be able to make in harmonious cooperation for improvement of the living conditions of the people. With the aid of the nurses and doctors the benefits of fresh air and cleanliness could be emphasized in such manner as to conduce to better health and less liability to disease. With better living conditions would come increased earning power and improved economic conditions without the drain of expenses caused by sickness and Another matter that a harmonious combination of medical men might regulate, to the advantage of their patients and the community in general, would be the practice of having prescriptions filled by certain druggists on a percentage basis. There are only two drug stores operated by colored druggists in Harlem. Under present conditions they do not receive a fair proportion of the prescription trade. A larger share of this trade should be directed to their establishments to the end that more openings might thereby be created for colored pharmacists. Instead of splitting hairs over moot questions of ethics, our physicians should tackle the vital questions of decreasing the death rate and improving the economic condition of the race from all angles. According to the Washington Eagle a new substitute for local self government is to be tried out for the benefit of the residents of the District of Columbia. It was explained as follows The House District Committee has decided to submit all bills concerning welfare of the local government to the legislative advisory council, on which two colored members see as full fledged representatives of the people. It has been decided by a group of legislators on April 11 that the Commissioners of the District do not represent the masses of the people and that the legislative advisory council more nearly does To this end all measures herefore referred to the Commissioners all of whom are white will now be referred as multaneously to the legislative advisory council, for submission to the people in their civic associations before a final report is made to Congress. In every case then, through the Federation of Civic Associations, the Negro will have a chance to study, as best possible for such study to be made, all legislation to affect him as a citizen here. This is regarded as an advanced step intrench its representations on the legislative adversary committee. Asserting that not all the white folks are bad nor all the Negroes good the Star of Lion official organ of the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church, said There is a growing group of outstanding southern white men who are disposed to give to the Negro the privileges to which he is entitled as a human being and an American citizen. Mr. R. B. Fleazar, the educational director of the Commission on Titer-Racial co-operation with headquarters in Atlanta, Georgia, together with other white men, are sincere in their efforts toward better racial relations, the suppression of lynching and mob violence. Following closely upon the lynching in Florida the Commission on Inter-racial Co-operation started to mobilize the public sentiment in the State and to take action in connection with the lynching near Oca on January 11. The prompt action of this Commission is heartening and should be sustained by the losses of law are order throughout the Republic. The trouble is that public opinion is slow to action against lynching and mass violence. The process of mounting popular sentiment in favor of law enforcement demands persistence in educating the masses. Commenting on the show made by the Community Chorus in Minneapolis, the St Paul Echo noted that not the least interesting thing about it was the audience's response. It said The work of the chorus as a whole is to be highly praised. Without a doubt the group singing made more an impression than the work of any individualizers with the pro-execution leader. There were so many songs and were good and so were great as to the case with so many.

Lenore Ulric in the title role is destined to enhance her reputation as a character delineator of exceptional versatility. I am happy in the thought that "Lulu Belle" provides employment for a greatly number of colored actors. At times the stage must be cent of a colored musical comedy. Whether Mr. Belasco gives a realistic picture of what critics refer to as "Negro life in Harlem" does not concern so much as what will be the reactions of white theatregoers to "Lulu Belle." Will it be to them a "rhapsody in brown," as the plan is characterized by Mr. Woollcott, or a "horrible nightmare" is what manner will this dramatic morsel so intriguingly prepared for consumption be mentally digested? Will it help to make white Americans understand colored Americans better or make fusing what is already a lamentable situation? If most white people were not prone to generalization, matters directly affecting the Negro, "Lulu Belle" would not be viewed with misgivings. But already white writers in commenting on the play unwittingly refer to it as reflecting a true picture of Harlem life. They do not say, as they should, that it represents the phase of it. One of the few not guilty of committing this great error was Burns Mantle of "The Daily News," who said, "Its first two acts are duplicates of popular conceptions of life in 135th street. I am not certain, but I feel sure, it is as unfair to the every day life of the colored citizenry as the operat: 'Carmen' is untrue to the every day life of the gypsies and soldiery of Spain." It Mr. Mantle wants undisputed proof that 90 per cent of the 200,000 Negroes in Harlem are unfamiliar with the cabaret life Mr. Belasco so vividly depicts it will be gladly furnished. That he has seen enough of Negroes to know they are not all alike evidenced by his statement that "Lulu Belle" represents the colored riff-raff." But it cannot be said only the "riff-raff" pattern cabarets. Harlem is becoming a centre of interest to white writers and dramatists, but as a rule in the wrong way. In search of "coolful material," (not a pith) they make nocturnal excursions to the large Negro community when most of its residents are in bed. Aside from Negroid background what they find is no different from cabaret life in other sections of New York. But in drawing a picture of Harlem night life they give an unfaithful and unian evaluation of an entire community In Harper's Magazine for January was published a story by Lee Fister Hartman entitled "Veneer". It was a subtle and various piece of propaganda. Harlem was advertised in this overdrawn fashion: "It was one of those Negro cabarets in the heart of the black blocks of Harlem—lawless, flamboyant, sordid. Here and there were white faces—women sheathed in silk, with gleaming necks and arms, men in dinner coats—Nordic faces in this roomful wide eyed and expectants blacks." Are, "white faces—women sheathed in silk, with gleaming necks and arms, men in dinner coats" only to be seen in Harlem cabarets. and arms, men in dinner coats" only to be seen in Harlem calabar "There, is some fair filthy stuff in "Lulu Belle." Most of vulgar enough to pass for realism of our San Juan Hill section, significantly remarks Gilbert W Gabriel of "The Evening Star." And he adds "See for yourself how huge the cast. It is an interval one most of its members Negroes. Which may explain the castinal complaint that the accents were not sufficiently Negro. What a false assumption? Picture Edna Lewis Thomas a member of the cast, reared in Boston, conforming with Mr Gabre's conception of what "Negro accents" ought to be? Such a play of ignorance must bring a smile to the Brouns and Mencken. Down South the white and colored people of a community take very much alike. Put them behind closed doors and it is cult to tell which is which. There can be no denying that Negroes talk with a Southern accent, but so do white people. Expect twelve million Negroes to speak in this manner is as too much. It is not incumbent on members of the race stress themselves in language peculiar to themselves. The story of "Lulu Belle" deals with a Negro vamp who, not nothing to acquire a bank roll and life of ease. She is first as a disky Carmen in Harlem and later on in Paris where strangled to death by a former lover. Nothing wholly or racial about that. Aside from giving Miss Ulric an opportunity to display her histrionic talents it is puzzling why Mr. took such kindly interest in the play. Certainly it is not a contribution to dramatist art? It must infiltrate the Negro woman is eterated with sex questions. Usually as in the case of Lulu Belle, a woman on the subway and I trains during rush observes the respectable hard working Negro women, whose clothes draw lines in their faces and wistful look in the bespoke the tone of their struggle for existence, the thought that when will the type be generally appreciated—who world pay her just beige? The Negro woman is never glorified by stage or beauty that she is unworthy of this consideration. America has made more heroic sacrifices.

First Emmanuel Church At the 11 o'clock services Sunday Pastor, Bolder preached from the following text "Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall be God. Blessed are the peacemakers for they shall be called the children of God." St Math. 5, 8, 9 Theme "Boldel the face of God, in a pure heart." Pastor Holden said, Again I desire you to note two other verses of the gospel of blessings as delivered by our Lord the Laminuel to his Apostles and Desciples. The first one, "blessed are the pure in heart for they shall see God" embodies a truth that answers the question of the ages. Where may we find or see God. Among the Jewish people God was seen through signs symbols, tales and the prophets water. Among the other nations of the earth the priests and prophets made use of similar observations, details of the presence and knowledge of the idea of God. Moses the prophet of great leader of the children of Israel gave to the world the most interesting and vanguard experience of compassion, creation and demonstration of faith. He is the most aerial and great man that requested to take the name of God and in accordance with the God's command made an effort by going up into the mountain where he stood, that he must himself in the rock upon the day and at the time when God would come down and pass where he was. He promised that he would not hurt but he dearest. YONKERS E Z I O N Z CHURCH Rev R S (O)N N pastor 1 b p m preaching lating Tuesday evening lating evening.

C. STRACHAH AFRICAN OTHURDON CHURCH OF NEW YORK CITY BROOKLYN have supp and charmed the world, with their thought on the glorious revelations of God, but none of them have ever been to comfort and inspire, people with a thought of the personal residence of God, and the personal privilege of seeing Him. Our Lord Jesus the Emmanuel declared to his apostles and disciples, and through them to the world of humanity, that the "Pure in heart shall see God" White this word "shall" seems to carry with it the idea of futurity, I feel that it is rather a condition, than a state of time and place. This idea makes it possible for any one here and now, if they will have pure hearts see God. A pure heart is a changed life, surrendered will, with a desire for constant communion with God, and fellowship with our Lord Jesus the Emmanuel, through the power of the Holy Spirit. It makes one manifest the deep passion of love, for mankind. And it causes one to have a sympathetic and tender interest in all forms and manifestations of life. It gives creative powers to the human imagination. Holiness radiates through the unpulses and shines out in the passions. Indeed God the Father himself becomes resident in the pure heart. Therefore when we know that our hearts are pure, we see God. And when we contact other personalities who have pure hearts we see God in them. So since our Lord Jesus Christ spoke these words, if people will earnestly desire to see God all they need to do is to meet the condition that is have a pure heart. The pure heart people, are peacemakers on the worlds of humanity. Hence they are children of the divine and eternal Father-Mother God. Therefore our Lord calls them the children of God. I appeal to you, to put forth the effort to become the children of God, in the world of humanity, by being peace makers, and through prayer and meditation keep the heart pure, so that you may not only have communion with our Lord the Emmanuel but through Him, so that his presence in my mind through his power in the Holy Spirit you may always see God. The Sunday school was opened at 6pm by the assistant superintendent Win Cloeman. 18 Sep on the Rev Williard Almon preached to the many assembled His text was: That the trial of your faith being much more precious than it had that persecution, though it be tried with fire might be found upon praise and honor and glory at the appearing of Jean Christ 1 Peter 17 This servant was very inspiring and uplifting The dinner was served during the day by the members of the Social Centre Harlem Second Seventh Day Adventist Church "No one thing arouses the wonder of the angels more than the manifest goodness of God to men," declared Pastor Strachan last Saturday as he opened his morning message to the Second Church on 12th street. The pastor's theme was "God's Loving Kindness." Many visitors occupied seats in the congregation, and among them were two members of the Gordon family. Brother Gordon who two weeks ago died in one of the pews of this church, was the first local elder known to the Greater New York believers. Old and feeble and fearing that he would not live much longer, he attended the church to greet his many friends. At the close of the sermon, he arose and testified that slowly dropped back into his seat cold in the embrace of death. In the course of his sermon this Sabbath morning the pastor said During the sun-increased cycles of eternity dwelling with their Maker, the angels have never witnessed such a manifestation of Divine time as has been shown to fallen men. The Psalm David once cried out "How great is His goodness! Saint Augustine once begged to be silent! Heaven where he could be beaten by the expression of that goodness upon the face of Jehovah. Are you wears worn and helpless in body? The Lord will revive you. Have not the way of life? The Lord will not. Are you unworthy and sinful? The Lord will remove every stain and guilt. How tender His love? How intimate His compassion? Not a year at a time in a care. He meets with the exalted resources of His grace. His brings us into the seed for the power. Need for the care. The bees give water, and the birds and touches written the air. He paints a morning glove in the sky and allows the sunset glove. He gives to the baby a mother love and to each of a friend. and love of serving men as express of the Bible, to uncomprehens- ness and unreliable Jesus. Say Hither leaves the enduring world He does.

In clothing, the speaker said, "It is what we say and do that determine our character. And character alone, is to stand the test of the final judgement. If our Hearts condemn us, God is greater than our hearts." St. Benedict The Moor On Sunday, February 21, at the eleven o'clock mass, a mission will begin in St. Benedict's Church, 342 West 33rd street, and will close at the evening service of Sunday, March 7. The exercises will be conducted by two monks of the Capucinus Order, Father Thomas and Father Bertrand, and will be held at t. 7, 8 and 9 o'clock a. m., and at 8 o'clock p. m. every day. The great service and most important feature of the mission will be every night at 8 o'clock and will consist of prayers and congregational singing and instruction on Catholic doctrine, with a sermon on a moral topic and close with the Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament The Capucinus Order is a branch of the Franciscans and therefore the Fathers of the mission will wear the halter as that worn by St. Benedict the Mount patron of the Church in West 33rd street. Siloam Presbyterian At the morning hour of worship at St. Claim, Rev George Shippen Stark, pastor, took his text from 1 Corinthians 4.1, the subject of his discourse being "Stewards of the Mysteries of God." In the course of his sermon the pastor brought out that a steward is one who must be trained for his business in order to prevent waste and overlapping. As Christians we are stewards and must know our business. We must know it from the point of the gospel: the gospel makes appeal to the inner conscience It is absolutely spiritual! It is spirit, appeal to spirit. He pointedly brought out that we cannot hate and be of God. Our heart of Christ is a heart of love In addition to knowing the gospel we must know men. Then one must use their own personal gifts and graces We must touch all sides of human life there can be we servants of God. It is through Him that we can serve all sides of life. Everything both in our private and public life should be done through the manifestation of the will of God. We should use whatever talents and graces we have for the service of man and the glory of God. The appeal to man should be made by reciving the heart of Christ to the heart of man, then man is revealed to himself. Christ says, "If I be lifted up I will draw all men to me." This service marked the beginning of the 8-weeks Come to Church Campaign. The antipollution choral in the balcony on the church pewed with the regular church choral and the congregation in the singing of Gospel Hymns. During this campaign here is to be a singing service on these Gospel Hymns at the morning hour of worship. The Bible School meet in general assembly at 1:15 p.m. Weather conditions had an effect upon the attendance of the school. The school is looking forward to the Easter period and will soon start on its program, for service on that day. At four o'clock the Pew Raly Service of Mrs King was held. An interesting program had been prepared and was presented at this time with such distinguished speaker as General George A. Wimote and Louise Dankin.

His purpose was to radiate from a center like Tuskegee the light of the homely but ever living truths which must form the basis of real advance for his race, or for any race —WILLIAM HOWARD TAFT, Chief Justice United States Supreme Court.

Flynn's great heavyweight prospect from Wisconsin, who went through the entire year of 1925 without sustaining a solitary defeat, will make his first appearance at the Commonwealth Sporting Club in Harlem on Saturday night, when he goes against Carl Carter, the Cuban champion, in the main attraction of ten rounds. Among Gorman's victims are Jack Sharkey, the Boston Strong Boy, over whom he scored a decision in the latter's home town last Augusta. Bud also engaged in a sensational ten round bout with Young Stribling in Detroit last June, which was a no-decision affair it is said that Gorman had Stribling in distress on several occasions. In his other nights in 1925, German won decisions over Jack DeMave and Ld Keeley and knocked out Bob Lawson in two rounds, Clintenfrey Savaardo in same distance, Dan Bright and Jack Reiner. That is only Gorman's record for 1925. He has beaten numerous other stars, having met practically all of the big fellows. On the other hand, Carter has been dispaying wonderful form in all his recent fights. He put up three great combats with Jack DeMave and never yet has failed to put up a satisfactory performance. The Cuban champion is expected to make Gorman extend himself to the very limit from the start. Another fastic treat on the big carnival is the ten round skirmish between Black Bull picturesque little Cuban fly and bantamweight champion, who will hook up with Fiddie Zieger, the dynamic little warrior of Washington Heights. There is no more colorful fighter in the game to day than Black Bull. In the remaining ten Bruce Lowers, of New Rochelle, who has been creating a lot of excitement among the lightweights, will have his mettle tested again when he hooks up with the Canadian crack, Sid Conn. The latter is a pretty nifty performer himself and will make the best of them go some.

A., 108 Bassett place, with a chorus of 150 voices made up of singers from Minneapolis and St. Paul. The concert was given in the Lyceum, and it was the first time that Negro music has been heard here sung as is should be by Negroes themselves The audience of 2,500 was made up of the best people of the Twin Cities of both races, and the list of sponsors included many of the wealthiest and most influential people of this section. It was said by one of the interested auditors that, "the hearers were stunned and electrified with the beauty and spiritual significance of the message of the Negro music." The program included a long list of compositions and arrangements by Negro musicians, with part songs for the choruses and art songs for soloists by composers of both vaces. The Community Chorus embraced within its personnel the Roland Hayes Glee Club, the Phyllis Wheatley Glee Club and the Bletso Glee Club. Besides directing the choruses, Mr. Johnson sang two solo groups the final one being made up of his own arrangements of "I'm so glad trouble don't las always" and "Rocky Road." The accompaniers were Mrs. Melvina Glenn and Mrs. Catherine Mandeville. The music reviewer on the Minneapolis Star, Southworth, Alden, declared the close singing to be the best he had ever heard in Minneapolis, saying that the volume of tone and quality of it was remarkable. "There was precision, sharpness of attack and release," said he, "and shining through it all was the utter joy of singing. With representatives of no other race could such results have been obtained in so short a time." Mr. Johnson lives in New York town, owning a home on West 139th street, but during his absence, his wife Mrs. Marie Peake Johnson, herself an accomplished and delightful singer, maintains an apartment at 574 St. Nicholas avenue, the home being rented.

NOW TIMES DEMAND NEW MEASURES AND NEW MEN (Lowell) THEY ARE SLAVES WHO DARE NOT BE IN THE RIGHT WITH TWO OR THREE—(Lowell.) Standards Change I have been asked to discuss briefly the matter of the musicians' and entertainers' standard of practice. The subject appeals not only to the preceptor who 'dets on' in the world by its attraction to him for his 'sticking the stories' or for his skill at buffling a fascinating howl from the saxophone, for it seems to exude a deeper interest for the musical producer For sake of the reader who is not conversant with the old time custom of composition, we'll relate the days when musicians and entertainers of accomplishment, as "well as the average rated jobbers, played for "tips", and the leader of the combination divided equally the hand out. There was little difference between the musicians' schedule of pay and the child's game of grab. Yet seldom was there compliant or discontent, as long as each performer received an equal share. In fact there was no problem, for problems came by reason of perplexity in the complexities of SYSTEM. But trouble came as soon as combination leaders began to see ahead and feel the need of a STANDARD and the lone of its BENEFITS To-day producers, as well as the open-minded practitioner face the problem of standardization. There is one kind of standardization that deserves special comment, and that is the kind that hinders progress. Its source is not managerial but financial. Standardization in musical management, like in any other field of service, means the application of the test we know to the thing we are doing. If a better method appears tomorrow today's method goes with the straps and tomorrow's standardization shows an improvement. In the world of industry we find this the exacting procedure for true industrialists and engineers. This progressive form of standardization is the only kind that satisfies the engineering conscience. Where a business is under financial instead of administrative control, standardization too often means holding to old methods and resisting new methods by every possible means. If the control of the business is chiefly financial and the principal product of the business is dividends, then old methods will ever be in vogue. But where a business is engineered by promoters and leaders who regard capital as the public money to be used in serving the public best, by the best methods and at the more economical charge, time worn practices go and new ones in anably take their place. The trouble is that most music leaders who have ability or personality enough are promoted and manage are out to promoters and managers themselves. The Deacon Johnson Mastans and Entertainer's Exchange calls the practitioners' attention to this evolution as "The Modern Opportunity."

Gordon have returned from home, Greensboro, N. C. after a visit Additional Church News "Otherwise Engaged" was the subject of the pastor's fifth pre-Easter message, of a series that will be continued until Easter. The text was late Kings 20 40. In an eloquent and logical manner Dr. Tyler traced the history of the text. He then stressed the view that we should not be so otherwise engaged that we should not have time for food. Dr. Boyer outlined several facts in presenting this discourse to the wartime pilots who present. The first fact was God has given to each of us the making of ourselves. We are only sketched out, or are just outlining, the masters of our own fate. When vividly contrasted the growing of free which follows nature's process to the growing or development of meth. We are given an embryonic self by God and we do the rest. We must have intention and purpose, and no man is properly organized it he does not have intention and purpose. We are not complete, but are on the way to completion. When we face God in the final day, we will be what we have made ourselves. The second fact was Men and women are to a large degree suffering from an definiensiveness and distraction, and love themselves greater than they do God or their fellow-man. This is because we have lost our spiritual balance which is one of the saddest things in the world. We should not be glued when it comes to spirituals. The mere holding of membership in fraterpittes, and even churches, and doing charitable acts will not suffice. We must give real service to God and man. Another fact is this. We must not place God on the perimeter of our lives but in the center. Dr. Tyler further stated that we should not only fit ourselves to live in heaven but we should fit ourselves to live on earth. The last and most glorious fact is the fact of redemption. The pastor closed with a strong appeal for the congregation to not be otherwise engaged that they will neglect the soil and make them selves worthy for the redemption which was made possible by the oblation of Christ. The following persons joined the church Bertha Smith 295 Thadford avenue Clarissa Johnson 1047 Herkimer street, James O. Brecken 200 Adeph street, and William Bonaparte, 640 Class son avenue.

They get the impression that one is sure of from the start at these Sunday morning services. "Well Doing" came at the morning service. It was rare occasions that the person at text is so fittingly put as was the one. Perhaps those who would be the weary and taint with life's problem and the perplexities caused by the language condition of time were the bride, a certainly the gamer when they were kept leged to listen to that scene, a straight with logic and concluding in its earnestness of deliveries. It was a treat rare in its force of delivery coming in its treatise, sound in its spiritual and ethical teaching stripped entirely of dogmas or denominational glamour. It was not for all people for all times and should mean a new structure for it, building of better Christians. Several young persons united with the church at the church in the sermon.

We want a religion that will serve our purpose here, that will serve the economical and social purpose. My faith leads me out yonder, I do know that this old world needs the gospel of Jesus Christ; and this world needs better young men and women here. The people should consult His mouth. The priest knew the law, and would read it at certain times to the people. It was a glorious day. I believe we can have the same attitude today. Just as people gather to hear the minister who knows their needs. Forge is the messenger from the Lord of Hoste. A messenger is one who is sent, and he usually has something to say. When a messenger of God stands to the pulpit, he should bring a message with him. He has a message from the King. He is an ambassador who touches all cases, and conditions of mankind. His message should reach the intelligent, the uningelligent, youth, middle age, old age and childhood all must be inspired. This is a purely psychological sermon. Rev. Henderson is a very young man, he is not only a credit to himself but the race as well. He not only knows the truth but dares to preach it. We pray God's blessing upon him "PIT-A-PAT" which the truth begets; the spirit of conference—nothing is more wholesome in the South today than the interracial committees; than above all and thorough all, the attitude of the white race must be Christian. "Any race that tries to save its own soul and at the same time tramples on the soul of a weaker people, shall lose it, and the only race that shall save its soul into the glory of an expanding life is that race which reaches out its hands to lead another, up and on." "Finally," Dr. Bowie said, "There is one high challenge to which I would lead out thought. Men sometimes are heard to say that race adjustment in this country is impossible." Mount Everest was a challenge to George Mallory, the intrepid climber who lost his life in the last attempt to scale it. The "frill of wanting to do something that no mortal man ever did before" spurred him on. "By the light of Hampton, by the torches of the souls of Armstrong and Frissell, by the glory of Virginia that out of her life could produce a Robert E. Lee, can we not also, in the matter of this Christian adjustment between the rates, aspire to do achieve, something which no people something inedible difficult and to achieve something which no people has offered, allied before. The existence of the problem is a challenge. Who shall say we cannot meet it with a conquering will?" Brooklyn Minister Stirs Syracuse Church Syracuse, N Y—One of the sensational events of the work of Bethany Baptist Church, 610 East Washington street, the Rev Herbert M Smith, pastor was the visit recently of the Rev. Thomas S Harten, pastor of Holy Trinity Baptist Church, Brooklyn, N Y, who conducted a special meeting for thirteen days, with the church crowded to capacity every night A chorus of fifty voices, directed by Helen Butler, the church organist, led the singing and the meetings were attended by a number of the white ministers and their members Dr Harten's sermons stirred the city as it has never been stirred, with people from every walk of life—black and white, rich and poor, cultured and unlettered good and bad—were profoundly influenced by his messages. More than one hundred souls were added to Bethany's membership, with many going to other churches in the city At close of the meetings, Dr. and Mrs. Harten were entertained by the church in the gymnasium, and lunch was served to all who attended. A purse of $200, in addition to all expenses, was handed the visiting minister. On February 22, Dr Harten will lecture in Syracuse on "The Negro's Place in the Community," and Dr Smith is planning a 30-day campaign in July with Dr Harten preaching Of Independence BY WILLIAM PICKENS Philadelphia, which celebrated a century of American Independence in 1876, is now (1926) planning to celebrate the century-and-a-half. We hear a rumor, which it is not, hard to believe, we are sorry to confess; namely, that the white management of the Philadelphia Exposition are doing their bit to ignore or to suppress any adequate participation by the Negro-American or any honorable representation of colored Americans in this celebration of Independence. In 1924 Baltimore, Md., celebrated the 100th anniversary, of the Battle of Fort McHenry, and although the Negro was in the battle all right, 100 years before, Baltimore left him out of the celebration. In 1814 hundreds of blacks helped to defend the fort and to drive the British back down the Chesapeake—so that 100 years after (1914) white people could, march and drag and beat drums and blow hoops while the Baltimore blacks stood on the corners and looked at the procession. There were thousands of Negroes in the war for American independence. They followed George Washington to Yorktown. A Negro named Crispus Attucks helped start the fight on Boston Common, and Negro troops helped to end it at Yorktown. The "Quaker, City" ought to be more wide-minded than Baltimore, Md. It was Baltimore that attacked the Union troops as they marched through from Massachusetts, on their way to Washington, at Lincoln's call, to defend the Union in 1861. It was Baltimore that started the Twentieth Century drive to try to segregate colored Americans in our cities. Baltimore was one of the pre-war centers of the slave-holding aristocracy. Baltimore lied, in effect, when it let white people do all the marching and horn-blowing in 1914, thus pretending that Negroes had not shared the battle in 1814. Will Philadelphia now try to forward this dastardly lie by pretending that the Negro was not in the war of independence? The colored people of Pennsylvania should "get busy" and go and "see 'em", from Governor Pinchot down. The Amazing Truth By WILLIAM PICKENS The Pullman Company has somehow been abe to influence more colored men to fight against the Pullman Porters than we ever thought could be done. We knew that many colored men, like many white men, can be influenced to adopt an attitude—some can be bribed or bought. But we are amused, at both the number and the supposed standing of the "leaders" who, somehow, have let this great corporation "get" them. Not one of them has yet produced an argument against the porters' organization that even a 16-year-old school boy might not answer—and yet, somehow, these men are "again it." O. Godl it is a great weakness to be poor the money of the mighty is likely to get you, even when you don't get the money. If we were weak-hearted, we would lose hope and faith in the future, by seeing this exhibition of how your own people can be thrown against you in a crisis by the dirty, devilish power of some millionaires. It is a revelation. But on the other hand, it is encouraging that in spite of this corrupting power and this corruptible weakness, there are those among our men and our newspapers who have stood above it The "Afro American," with Carl Murphy as editor, is always clean on such matters "The New York Age" and Fred Moore show the same sort of commonsense And the "Pittsburgh Courier" was not bought up by this evil influence These are three of the big papers that seemed to be free on this matter, the Just time we noticed them—and there are others But on the whole, this matter has shown us how those with a lot of money may hire us to cut each other's throats. There are some of us who would go to hell first, but most of us are not made that way Economic weakness is a great weakness. If the Pullman porters win out against this opposition, they will not only help themselves immediately, but will help the cause of their race forever. Editor of The New York Age: When that section of Harlem populated by Negroes is being referred to in the daily press, the underworld without qualification, don't you think it time to call a halt on those guilty of such an unwarranted offense? In the Daily News of Sunday February 12, writing on "The Dramatic 'Underworld'" Burns Manble dramatic crítica said: "There is one thing to be said for the underworld drama that has taken a fresh hold upon the theatres of the town. It is at least informative Mr. Belfaso is impressively colorful 'Lulu Belle' brings the so-called black belt downtown to 43rd street. And those who have the slightest learning to know the life and activities of a Chinese bagnon may see it hand somely and in a measure at least truthfully pictured in 'The Shanghai Gesture.' "Whether first honors for massive and striking scenic display should go to Mr. Belasio for his towering street scenes and intimate interiors in 'Lulu Belle' or to Mr. Woods for his gorgeous Oriental display of gold leaf and elaborate fretwork scenes of colorful Shanghai you are privileged to judge for yourself. "The Belascon settings undoubtedly present the truer picture of the two Here is a cross section of 'San Juan Hill' literally reproduced with its frowny, young old middleaged, tattered, swell, degenerate, recklessable. plain and perminous colored types awarming over fire escapes, and through pools of light thrown by the street lamps. "Here is the night-life over which my more inquisitive and better informed friends tell me, darkrown aristocratic Barron Wilkins presides" "Barron Wilkins has been dead going on two years. But what have factions and accuracy got to do with it when 'the black belt' I sexploit for the "education" and entertainment of the white public? Yonkers Democrats Are Firing Negro Republicans Editor of The New York Age: The P. W. D. of Yonkers, N. Y. is ridding itself of all the colored help who voted the Republican ticket. It seems to be about time for the Negroes to investigate and find out whether or not this is to be a fixed rule when the Democrats assume control: That they are to kick out all the colored appointees who voted the Republican ticket and keep white Republicans in it. So, the Negro ought to remember his brother Democrat at the polls. It is a shame to throw men with large families out of work in the dead of winter, with snow banked up to their doors, without any notice, and with the landlords threatening to put them out of their homes, especially when these men are paying taxes and paying the salaries of those who are kicking them out. The Rev Sidney W. Smith wrote a letter to the Mayor about this situation and Mayor Win Walsh replied, assuring him no man would be discharged because of race, creed or color, and yet the axe is still falling on the necks of the poor helpless colored men. When will our people get together and help keep out of City Hall such men? A YONKERS VOTER Yonkers, N. Y. Measuring Up-To A Responsibility From the Greenboro Daily News Governor McLean has stated the case admirably. The issue in the petition for executive clemency for the Ashville mob men was no ordinary issue. The pressure brought upon the governor was not ordinary pressure. The decision he was forced to make because in justice he could make no other, was not easy for any man. The appeal was directed with a strength and insistence that would place upon his head the responsibility for the families of the converted men that is not a pleasant experience for any man to stand up to. He has stated the case adamably because in its essence "the prisoners sought to destroy the very processes of government upon which they now rely," because "the crime they committed was one of the most serious known to our law—serious because the sovereignty of all the people of the state was trampled under foot and insulted by the men their hands," because "no man can calculate the damage that may be done to the good name and fame of North Carolina by even one lynching," and because "the only way to suppress lynching it to let those who engage in it understand that they will be punished and punished severely, just as has been done in the Asheville and Martin county cases." If the governor had yielded to the pressure brought to hear upon him, he would have set back measurably the cause of reliance on law in North Carolina. He would have given encouragement to all who take the law in their own hands. He would have asked and abetted in the fostering of the lending spirit. He has stood firm for the new spirit of respect for law and certain punishment for mills and North Carolina can thank him for enabling state to continue to hold its head high.

LLEY'S MERCHANDISING VICE York Phone Morningside 0542 THINGS SEED, BEARD AND DONE AMONG PULLMAN EMPLOYEES BY JAMES H. HOUANS THE 1920 General Conference between representatives of the Pullman company and representatives of the 10,000 and more Pullman port- ers, representatives have returned to their respective homes, and Pullman workers and marts have been granted an 8 per cent wage increase which will go into effect beginning February 15. An eight cent increase in the pay of those employees whose wages are only $67.50 a month if not a unimilicent wage. Especially does this appear not so when it is considered that the additional pay means only a fraction over five dollars to the shirt which they are paid at present. Then, too the meagerness of that amount is accentuated by the fact that the men were led to believe not by the company representative, of course--that they would increase at least 20 per cent increase. The life of the white collar worker, and turned out to be simply a case of hypothesis on the nature who indulged in that hope, doesn't help to alleviate the feeling of disappointment that are generally felt among the men. Still, it may be taken into consideration that an increase of 8. per cent in a given wage scale is about the average increase for any corporation to grant its employees at one time. And while this amount is not satisfactory in this instance, it is not to be despised. Furthermore, it has been obtained without any serious effort or loss of time on the part of the employees affected. It is well enough, for illustration, to point to other workers who have been granted a 20 per cent, and in some cases, a 40 per cent, raise by their employers. In most of these instances, the employees had to resort to military efforts, to obtain it. Moreover, these workers have been mostly of the skilled labor class. While there is no disposition here to defend and make excuses for the amount of the raise, it might not be smiles to offer some hypotheses in connection with the subject. Although the hypotheses are the writer's own, he has no evidence of facts to substantiate them. Suppositions, as a rule, are very poor premises on which to build. And when they present, a condition, which is entirely at variance with the commonly accepted belief, they are well night useless in an argument. Nevertheless, people will make use of them. In trying to arrive at a concession as to why the porters were unable to geta bigger raise than that which was granted them, the supposition here is that other factors besides the porters' entered the cast. And those were these: First, the Pullman Company has in its employ an army of workers. The porters comprise only a fraction of this army. To raise the wages of one group of employees 20 per cent, and ignore the others, would have caused dissatisfaction all along the line. The theoretical group, which includes conductors and office forces; the manufacturing group, which takes in the skilled mechanics and others engaged in the building and repairing of Pullman carls the laundry group, which is maintained in every large district; and the yard and car-cleaning group, which is indispensable in all terminal points all would have thought that they were entitled to the same raise as the porters. And while the porters were not concerned with what other employees might want, the company was. Doubtless, it was fear of that probability that they perceived the minds of the management's representatives in their consideration of the porters' increase. The statement issued to the press by the chairman and secretary of the conference, as well as those may not have had any reference to that eventuality, but it is worth repeating here, the statement in part said: "Alter, lengthy discussion in joint conference, in which both sides laid their cards on the table face up, and after a frank and dispassionate consideration of all angles of the requests for revision of working conditions and wages, the management presented certain statements as to its economic problems, and supported those statements with indisputable facts, which representatives of the porters and maids had to consider in entering into a final agreement." This phase of economics, however, will go over the head of the porter who was expecting twice as much as he was granted. No matter if we are a little disappointed in our expectations, there is no need to be pessimistic about it, for the conference was by no means a failure. Our working conditions, so it is reported, will be greatly improved, that means something, anyway Negro Industrial Exposition Planned By Harlem Council Dr. George Frazier Miller Addresses Citizens It was announced at the Citizens' Welfare Council, Dr Charles Butler, president, at the regular meeting, Sunday, an P. S. 136, that plans were being made by the Forum to hold in City some time in 1927 an International Negro Industrial Exposition. The Rev Dr George Frazier Miller spoke on the subject "Why We Should Marry," and was presented to the audience as the principal speaker for the afternoon by Myles Page. Dr Miller said "There is only one foundation for marriage. It should be the genuine, sympathetic companionship between man and woman. Each one should bear a sincere feeling to advance the well being and promote the happiness of the other. "Unless the man feels the man of her choice is the only one that will fit into her life she is not ready for marriage. The man should feel the same toward the woman. "The reason of so many divorces that mans people do not want to ife if their lives have been welded to together in love.

The topic for open discussion was "How can we make our race better liked?" A number of those present expressed opinions.
