Tells How Mrs. Bishop Was Placed As Substitute In Junior High School
Then Suggested That A Personal Call By Wife Would Make Better Impression
Some curiosity has been excited through the belated activity of certain Harlemites who are seemingly anxious to justify the attitude of Miss Ellie Kormmann, principal of Junior High School 130, located at St. Nicholas avenue and 15th street, who has been charged with wanting to have all the colored girls attending that school take industrial and commercial courses, instead of a general course which leads to high school and college eligibility
One or the most active is the Rev. Shelton Hale Bishop, son of the Rev. Dr. Hutchens C. Bishop, rector of St. Paul's P. E. Church, and an assistant vice to his father. The wife of the younger clerk is a recently appointed teacher in Miss Kormmann's school, serving as substitute, filling the place made vacant by death of a regular teacher
An interesting account of the basis of his friendly attitude towards Miss Kormmann was given by the yuggeran Bishop in talking with a group, which included a reporter for The New York Age. He asserted with emphasis that Miss Kormmann was without racial or color prejudice, and that her attitude in the "Go to High School, Go to College" movement inferred by the Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity was not due to personal feeling.
Wife Teaches at P S 136
The Rev Shelton Bishop told the group that several months ago he called on Miss Kornmann and asked for the placing of Mrs. Bishop as a substitute teacher in the junior high school, but was told that there was no vacancies. Reaching home he told his wife of the interview and then suggested that of Mrs. Bishop, who is comely and very fair, paid a personal visit to Miss Kornmann, a more favorable impression might be created. Continuing Mr Bishop said his wife did make the call, and although she was told the same thing—that there was no vacancy—it was only a few days later one of the regular teachers being ill, that Mrs. Bishop was sent for and put to work.
The subsequent death of this teacher led to the retention of Mrs. Bishop, who is still on the substitute list, it is reported. According to a statement attributed to Miss Kornmann, said to have been made to the committee appointed by Mr Bishop to hold a conference with the school principal on May 27, told of in another column, the young minister is a frequent caller at Junior High School 130
Carlton Ave. Branch Goes Over The Top In Its Drive For $5,000
Workers in the Carlton YY Campaign for $5,000 from May 19 to 24 found the Brooklyn public greatly interested and willing to shoulder with others their part in the responsibilities of maintenance of the Carlton Avenue Branch. About fifty men were actively engaged in seeing the people. They met each evening at the Branch for appraisal at 6:30, and following their reports were out making calls at 7:45, of the 450 or more people seen or refused to contribute and many made been sacrifices in order that they might do their part. Members of the Board of Managers who have unsealed their render response when needed, either manually or otherwise contributed nearly $1,000 or 20 per cent of the branch amount to balance the budget for ending March 31, 1977 while 400 other persons made up the remainder in a total of $5,314.
The Board of Managers of the Carlton Avenue Branch wishes to thank the people of Brooklyn for their keen interest and generous support.

On Friday evening May 28 Plain Clothes Officer Emmaa Khine of the 3rd Division arrested Hman Goldberg, a pharmacist in the drug store at 2512 Eighth avenue on a charge of practicing medicine without a license. The arrest came after several month's investigation by the New York Medical Society and members of the police force. On the evidence secured through these investigations a bench warrant was issued by the Magistrate McDon. According to the police Dr. Goldberg had boasted he made 20,000 during the last twelve months as a job seeker although it is alleged he is not licensed. His method is said to have been to offer patient medicines and toilet articles for sale below cost in order to get a large number of people to come into the store. When they came in he inquired how they were feeling and whenever he found someone complaining of feeling ill he offered to their assistance. Examination and prescription for their alimentary matter he is alleged to have taken a large quantity among colored women. The investigators say he would tell prospective patients he would them at less cost than regular physicians charge but once he got them under his power he charged all the traffic would stand.

Picketpocket Arrested At Cornerstone Laying Of Prince Hall Temple
Twenty newsboys wanted to sell The New York Age Good opportunity. Call at The Age office—230 West 135th Street—Thursday or Friday morning.
One of the most outrageous attempts at "framing up" an innocent and respectable woman by police officers through the employment of a despicable good pageon was finally frustrated when Magistrate Charles Oberwager in the Jefferson Marke. Court gave an honorable acquaintal to Mrs Minnie Lynch of 486 St. Nicholas avenue who had been arrested by Police man Hart and Isbell two plain cloister officers, on a charge of alleged prostitution on Mrs Lynch has a 7 room apartment at the St. Nicholas avenue address and she and her husband occupy three of them, renting the other four roomers. So when a man who gave his name as Thomas called and applied for a room, he was accommodated. First he paid a deposit of $100 later to pay the balance of so that week's rental of the room. Thomas was given a key and then a kettle a towel so that he could wash his face and hands. Getting the towel Thomas went into the bath room. A few minutes later the door bell rang and in name the two officers putign her under arrest. Ther Thomas asked on the bath room wasting the towel harming that it was evidence of the effect relation he claimed to have sustained with Mrs Lynch.
Litchi's wrists, one of the officers grabbing the other and the two men forced into the living room where the officer demanded of her the $5 which he said Thomas had paid her. The officer searched her raging her dress and thrusting her hand down her stocking taking therefrom not only the $5 which the man had paid for the room but an additional $5 which already had. After the man Thomas had played his reprehensible role in the dirty plot against M. Lynch the officers permitted him to get away Hart and Iddell but documented knowing Thomas but it was considered a singular fact that they should know so well in the amount the man had paid Mrs Lynch and this was further emphasized after Judge Oberwager had dismissed the charges when Attorney Woodward asked concerning the money taken from Mrs Lynch and was told by Officer Hart that it was Hart's money. The $5 which was also taken disappeared completely the policemen disclaiming any knowledge of it. The officers then took Mrs Lynch to the Jefferson Market Court where after considerable delay she was finally allowed to get in touch with her hand who procured bail in the sum of $500 through M. Green of West Wash street. The next day this bail was raised to $1,000
Relatives Were Present
Mrs Lynch's two sisters, Mammy Brown and Margaret Johnson, of 302 West 19th street were with her when the mail first called and on his second visit Mrs Brown and a cousin Lois Coombs of Belle Meade N I were present.
The barefaced effrontery of the two politemen who in using a conscience-less pig pigeon were going contrary to orders from Inspector Day, aroused the interest of a number of people who excited themselves in behalf of Mrs Lynch.
Mans character witnesses testified to the good repute enjoyed by Mrs Lynch and her husband who is employed by a piano manufacturer. Among those voluntarily came to her assistance were several well known white women for whom she worked during recent years besides a number of men and women, the own race.
Mrs James H. Harkpatrick of 328 East 51st street has known Mrs Lynch in seven years took up the case and interested other white women for whom Mrs Lynch had worked, including the well known writer and author Mrs Rachel Cromers of 125 East 52th street Mrs Franklin I Klin at 420 East 50th street Mrs Ruth Martin I West 15th street and Mrs Lloyd Trask of 128 East 15th street.
After several summons in the case came to no real benefit Judge Oher-
wager in the Jefferson Market Court on Thursday May 17, Attorney Park
Woodward who was associated in the case with H. Kirkpatrick had been
released. Mr. Kirkpatrick as Mrs. Lombard counsel while Assistant Dre-
tor Attorney Lombard appeared as presenter.
Judge Cross Examined Men
The testimony given by the officers was in evidence contrary to the facts that even Judge Obermayer took a bend in cross examining the men. That
bobble gave the stool pigeon a message, "Gone Joe," instead of "Alumni," although disclaining any knowledge of him, and the address given to Bobble avonce was found to be the location. It was stated by the officers, in their sworn testimony, that they had stood on the opposite side when the man entered, and that they, had not conspired, Judge Observer questioned their ability to listen in at such a distance.
When asked as to conditions they found on entering Mrs. Lynch's room, they declared they found the man in bed without coat or trousers on, and that Mrs. Lynch was clothed only in a kimono, shirt, shoes and stockings. Later they said it was a bathrobe. Later they told Olsen that questioning the officers, brought forth several conflicting statements, establishing more and more plainly the character of perjured testimony which was being used in the effort to carry to a successful conclusion the despicable "frame up" plot.
Inspector Day, on assuming command of this District, issued stringent orders prohibiting the use of stool piglets, but it was brought out in this case that the officers are disregarding these orders. "It was believed by those familiar with conditions that the curbing of the activities of the infamous Charles Dancey would relieve the community of these vile and vicious police agents. But it is reported that other agents, one alleged to be called George Hutchinson, are being used by officers, despite Inspector Day's orders.
Given Honorable Acquital.
After thoroughly thrashing out the case and listening carefully to the testimony of the two officers responsible for the case Judge Oberwager declared it to be one of the most outrageous instances of an attempt at injustice which had come before his court.
Mrs. Lynch was given an honorable acquaint, and the Judge dismissed the charges in toto.
Besides the ladies aforementioned, who all appeared as witnesses, others taking the stand for Mrs. Lynch were Miss Caldwell a teacher in the public schools, who has known Mrs. Lynch for twenty-five years, Mrs. Lela Walters, widow of the late Bishop Alexander Walters and Mrs. Nellie Bishop Fred R. Moore, editor of The Age, who has been crusading against the pernicious use of stool pigeons by policemen, and George Hammond were active in behalf of Mrs. Lynch, and was in court throughout the trial, ad-
Mrs. Elizabeth Mayfield and Mrs. Sarah M. Lewis, social workers for St Marks M. F. Church, were in court as representatives of the Federation of Churches
Assistant District Attorney Weston, who conducted the prosecution, declared that he would not countenance or lend himself to the use of such desirable methods as were indicated in this case. He said it was a pernicious and dangerous practice, fraught with menace to good and respectable women of all classes without regard to race or color. He displayed a fair-mindedness that indicated his desire to see even-handed justice administered and that Mrs. Lunch, he given a square deal.

Denied Conroy's Authority
With regard to the circular gotten out, which tended to discourage the students from entering the general college and which was reported to have been banned by Dr John P. Conrey, district superintendent Miss Kormannia stated that she had gotten the circular unit with the cooperation of Miss Alice J. Brown the vocational guidance teacher and with the approval of superintendent Benjamin V. in charge of junior high schools who she says, complemented her for it. She stated that Dr Conrey had not placed a ban on the circular. But the several direct quests to the university place the ad outfit that Dr Conrey had said.
circulated ahead of the time the waste basket he said was made in a roaking manner and was not an order. Then she added that Dr. Conroy did not have the power to order the circus lag destroyed over the approval of Superintendent Lee. Although Thomas Fager forced Mass Masses to attend additional statements which she had presumably denied at the beginning of the controversy, the admissions came only after Rev. Bishop Haff said to please the attorney.
Paige Defined His Position
Mr. Fauge made the first speech setting forth his position on the matter, and saying that the question was whether industrial education was being forced on the girls at this school. He stated that Junior High. Ho was the only school that refused to permit a representative to speak at the Go to High School on to College campaign. Miss Kochmann spoke in great length and eventum, denoting the number of students in each department and a description of the various courses. Rev. R. Robinson, who was forced to leave before the conference ended, made a short address in which he called attention to the fact that it was up to Miss Kochmann to keep in touch with the sentiment and aspirations of the people in the community, if she wished to make a success as a philosopher of a society, a girl could be that. He also mentioned that the had made an effort to allow the girls to speak and that he hoped the girls would be more colored representative of the community to address the issues. Mrs. Penna also left her place to attend college.
Barred The Age Edition
Addresses to a similar vein were made by Res Dr Deines Mr Reed and Mr Kolle. Mr Bermann stated the wounded man made a mistake in her treatment. Mr Pague spoke in favour of the treatment. Mr Pague again engaged also in large training. She bolted also that she taught Mr Pague
S. C. Supreme Court
Grants New Trial To
3 Charged With Murder
Columbia, S. C.—Two colored men,
Depron and Clarence Lowman, and a woman, Bertha Lowman, convicted of murder on the charge of killing Sheriff Henry H. Howard of Alken County, have been granted a new trial by the Supreme Court of South Carolina in an opinion handed down on May 27, unanimously concurred in.
The opinion was written by Acting Associate Justice R. O. Purdy, and was concurred in by Associate Justice R. C. Watts and T. P. Cottran and Acting Associate Justice J. H. Marlon.
The sheriff was killed on April 25, 1925, when he and three deputies went to the house of Sam Lowman, father of Demon and Bertha, with a search warrant on the lookout for constrain whisky. In a general majest, Annie, wife of Sam Lowman and mother of Demon and Bertha, was killed by Deputy Sheriff A. D. Shagged, Demon, Bertha and Clarence, a couple were wounded, and the sheriff was killed by a shot alleged to have been fired by Clarence.
Tried In Short Order
Few of an attempted lynching caused the removal of Dumson and Clarence to the state prison for safe keeping. The trial began May 12, 1925, and ended in conviction of the three.
Attorney N J. Fredericks, a colored lawyer of Columbia, argued the appeal for a new trial in November, 1925. In the opionion handed down, grasuring a new trial, the Supreme Court held that sufficient time had not elapsed for the subdifference of feeling aroused by the sheriff's death.
Judge H. F Rice, presiding at the trial, charged the jury "And I will say now, there is no dispute that the sheriff had a search warrant to search the house for contraband whiskey and that he had with him his deputies and having a search warrant, it was his duty under the law to go and search that house and it was the business of every single person in that house to submit to it and not to oppose him in his search."
Error In Charge
"The charge," the supreme court field, "excluded the right of the defendants to protect themselves against search if they did not know the parties making the search were officers." The defendants were entitled to have the jury charged that they could stand on their rights as the occupants of the premises and protect their home from invasion, using so much force as was necessary, unless they knew that these persons were officers with the right to search." To convict any other than the person firing the one shot which killed the sheriff, the court also pointed out, there must be shown "a conspiracy on the part of the defendants to attack the officers"
"A conspiracy could not have been formed," it was held, "by all of the defendants to attack the officers after the officers arrived on the premises and the testimony given . . . does not disclose that a conspiracy existed before the visit of the officers."
And the court to epistomize its opinion
"Taking the setting of the whole case and the conditions which surrounded the defendants as the trial, and the errors pointed out in his honor's charge, which affected all of the defendants, a new trial is granted as all of them."

Although the first public exposure of the attitude of the prison on college training was by The New York Anz.

Presidential Third
Term Discussed By
The Liberian People
BY LORENZ B. GRAHAM
Throughout, the Republic of
Liberia, the coming Presidential
election which will take place in May of
1927
is being discussed. As a whole the
people of the Black Republic are said
to be well satisfied with the admini-
stration of President C. D. B. King who
is now serving his second four year
term.
The True Whig Party, now in power,
plain to be safe in saying that they
will continue to hold the reefs of
government for the next four years. Just
whom they will bring out for the
President is the great question.
Several district successes have been held and in almost every case resolutions were gassed. commending President King, for his services and calling upon him to accept the nomination for a third term. It is said that there is not a more fit man in the Republic for the collossal task of administrating the industrial program, which has been adopted.
The extensive development of roads and the opening of the interior are the most valuable things to be credit. The range of Americas capital under the Firestone agreement created some dissonon but it is said that even the most bitter opponents to this move have been reconciled on seeping the general prosperity that the understanding is bringing to Liberia.
President King, himself, has not only refused to discuss the third term but has also used every effort to keep his cabinet and the government generally to the task of governing. He holds that there is too much work to be done to spend time with politics at this early date. Leaders of the opposing People's Party have expressed admiration for this wise stand.
Supporters of the third term idea show that other Presidents have served more than two terms; opponents counter with the fact that at one time the term of office was for only two terms and that no President has served for more than eight years. They also point to the policy of George Washington who declined the third term, thereby establishing an unviolated American precedent Many feel that Liberia cannot afford to follow American precedents in every instance, as the conditions here are so vastly different from the conditions existing in the United States.
It is said that everything depends upon President King His friends hold that he should accept the nomination, while many people of his opponents admit that if he will accept the people will elect him to succeed himself

Pains

"SEVERAL years ago I
was badly run down."
says Mrs. John Bunch.
R F.D. S., Columbia, S.C.
"I could not do any of my
work. I was so weak
could not walk and sides hurt me
at times dreadfully. I dragged
around until I finally got
down in bed."
Then, explains Mrs. Bunch, she happened to read Cardul, the woman's about to card, and decided through trial the results of which she describes below,
"It seemed to reach the cause of my trouble at once. I did not take it long before my appetite began to improve. I gain 125 pounds until now I weigh 125 pounds. I soon was able to be up around the house. I took up my household duties and was delighted with my returning strength. I would do all my own work. The pain in my sides and back have disappeared and I feel like a different person."

Your State Of Mind
We are all queer! In our frankest moments we will admit as much without protest. But what do we mean by queer?1
Think for a moment of the persons with whom you come in daily contact. Count a few of those who you find difficult. There is the man who is always on the aggressive. He must be right-right or wrong. He must have the last word. In fact, he must—many things in many ways. Then there is the person at the other extreme—the retired, timid soul. He is fearful of most everything. Each little unpleasant incident in his mind assumes the proportions of a calamity; each mishap takes on the aspect of a tragedy. Add to these some of the other queer types, or better those with queer habits and mental attitudes—the "regular"lar, the perpetual boaster, the chroop grouch—and you have some indication of what queerness designates.
You ask "why are these people queer?" Perhaps before attempting to answer, it would be best to establish immediately self-evident burt little appreciated ones. You ask "why are these people queer, when of an abnormal attitude, is so because of some definite reason."
We have learned to understand that most physical ailments have specific causes, that they can be cured, and that such an afflicted person needs our help, our sound advice and often our sympathy. What holds for the physically queer holds equally for the mentally queer, and often even to a larger degree. The forces that operate upon our minds are numerous, complicated and of remote origin. Heredity, pass and present environment, training, experience and physical well being all affect our mentalities a bad bad. A toothache is a simple mother it can may be readily ascertained. Its cure may be easily achieved. Not so, however, with a grouch, a lie, a boast, an undue show of temper. In the last analysis it is the degree to which we are able competently to adjust ourselves to the world about us that determines our normality or queerness.
This subject is of late receiving a great deal of attention Magazines carry many mental hygiene articles, many books are written on this topic. As in very newly developed fields so we find in the field of mental hygiene hokum peddlers, fakers and faddists. Though it is desirable, therefore, that we be informed, it is even more desirable that we first ascertain the source and trustworthiness of the information A reliable source is the National Committee for Mental Hygiene. 370 Seventh Avenue.

POLICE STOOL PIGEONS.

The use of stool pigeons, or informers for the purpose of securing evidence to warrant arrests by the police may be a necessary evil, but it is always fraught with danger to innocent parties. That such police aids are frequently unscrupulous in their devices to make a case was proved by the career of the notorious Charles Dancey, who placed many women and girls in jeopardy by his false testimony. In their zeal to swell the number of their arrests, rookie policemen are not always careful as to the means used to accomplish that end.
The police force of New York City comprises a fine body of men, who are in the main earnest and zealous in their efforts to protect the citizens from all sorts of crime and criminals. It is to be expected that occasionally the zeal of new officers to make a reputation will lead them into serious error by placing too great reliance in the stories told them by these unsavory stool pigeons, who fatten on vice and in its absence do not hesitate to make cases against innocent women and girls. Veterans of the force, like the captain of the 135th Street Precinct and the inspector in charge of the district place but little reliance in most of these informers.
Nevertheless the stool pigeons receive sufficient encouragement to continue their dirty work and every now and then invigle some unwary woman in their tools by gaining admission to her apartment as a lodger seeking a room or some other pretext. Later the police enter and a change of prostitution or keeping a disorderly house, is made against the woman tenant. She is arrested and put to great trouble and mortification in proving her good character or else convicted on a charge of which she was not guilty. Some of the judges have learned of the rotten part played by such stool pigeons in the perversion of justice and only accept their evidence after searching investigation and corroboration.
The employment of stool pigeons is in most cases a waste of public funds for the provocation of vice or worse still for the enmeshing of the innocent, not to prove them guilty. It encourages the manufacture either of crime or of false evidence that a crime has been committed. This is especially true of the cases involving women in Harlem. The use of stool pigeons should be discouraged by the Police Commissioner in most of the cases where they are now employed. Such dangerous tools demand rare discretion in the handling of them.

The mental attitude of the teacher toward her vacation has its direct and indirect influence on her pupil. This is especially true of those trained in the public schools of New York who are assigned to Harlem schools and further processed notions as to some of the differences between colored children and white children. If they are able to preserve open mind on the subject, the teacher that the difference of any means that the environment and previous material training. If the training has had the same in both classes as is often the difference pursues individual.
The objection to the public schools is to provide equal component and equivalent training to the classes of children without discrimination on account of race or color. The chief American citizen should be aware of such conditions and may be asked to the teacher and purpose of life. There is that because of a child's presence, the teacher should be determined by a careful instruction whether it be by hand or preterably of both children.

adefinite or industrial courses should be a matter to be decided by the advice of the vocational guidance director, with the knowledge and consent of the parents.
The institution of a parents association should be regarded as an important step toward securing the cooperation and support of the parents in the work of the teacher. Teachers of experience regard such associations as a valuable aid toward chlisting the best efforts of the pupils in their work and keeping up their interest and regular and punctual attendance. The Parents Association of Public School No. 119 is regarded as one of the strongest in the city and is frequently cited as an example of what such an organization should be. Opposition to such an organization can only be based on a misconception of its purpose or upon unworthy motives, which would not bear public sorutiny.
If a similar organization had been actively functioning in cooperation with Continuation High School No. 136, much of the present difficulties and embarrassments might have been avoided. If the principal is in favor of the formation of such an organization, as reported, it will do much to restore confidence in her administration and her desire to make the school serve the best interests of the pupils.
AVOIDANCE OF JURISDICTION.
It is remarkable that both the Supreme Court of the United States and the Interstate Commerce Commission should set up the plea of a lack of jurisdiction when cases involving the rights of Negroes are on the calendar. This was recently demonstrated in the question of residential segregation, dismissed by the first tribunal, and the matter of jim crow cars aired before the latter.
It is remarkable that both the Supreme Court of the United States and the Interstate Commerce Commission should set up the plea of a lack of jurisdiction when cases involving the rights of Negroes are on the calendar. This was recently demonstrated in the question of residential segregation, dismissed by the first tribunal, and the matter of jim crow cars aired before the latter. The Interstate Commerce Commission was established by an act of Congress February 4, 1887, and its jurisdiction applies to all common carriers. It requires that the states charged should be just and reasonable and prohibits unjust discrimination and unlawful or unreasonable preference or advantage in transportation rates or facilities. The commission has power to remove any unlawful or unreasonable advantage, preference, or prejudice between persons or localities in intra-state commerce on the one hand and inter-state or foreign commerce on the other. Consisting at first of five members, its membership has been increased gradually to eleven.
As the case brought before this body by Mr. E. Crosby sought for damages for the failure of a railroad to furnish Negro passengers the same train and station facilities and white passengers, there would appear to have been ground for the charge of prejudice and discrimination as to rates. Pullman accommodations were refused him and he was alleged that in other ways he was subjected to unreasonable regulations. Any one who has been subjected to the discomforts of travel in jim crow cars can appreciate what these were. And yet the Commission dismissed his case for lack of jurisdiction. The only thing that would open the eyes of these commissioners would be to force them to travel from Washington to Palm Beach in a jim crow car.
The Supreme Court's lack of jurisdiction was asserted in a case originating in the district of Columbia, which involved the right of Washington property owners to enforce an agreement barring Negroes from owning or occupying houses in certain residential districts. In some of the State courts such agreements have been voided as opposed to public policy. The Supreme Court refused to pass on this question by holding that no issue had been raised to justify its intervention. The case will not be allowed to stop here at the legal advisers at the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People can find a new angle from which to approach the Court.
It would seem that this avoidance of jurisdiction is contagious.

WHAT STATE RIGHTS MEAN
The time honored doctrine of State Rights once relied upon to boost the theory of possession and the cause of the Confederacy has been made to assume new meanings through the interpretation given by present republican leaders. Not long ago President Coolidge speaking at William and Mary College in Virginia asserted that the doctrine of state rights must continue, wronging but not preclude the free, uninterference of well being." It ventured further.

The identi- cange possesses the quality of presen- ment in the late President Wilson of dis- siring in the most elevated and re- resuming from utter of public policy, without carrying out the liberal sentiments expressed in any practical act of governmental
administration. So it would not be well for those seeking justice to build any high hopes of speedy realization on the utterances made by Mr. Coolidge at William and Mary. But the desire of Republican leaders to limit the sphere of Federal action is indicative of their intention to unload further responsibility for enforcing their constitutional obligations. Representative Ogden L. Mills of New York, who followed the President in speaking on the same occasion, emphasized this phase of the matter by saying,
"There is a real need in the country to-day to refamiliarise ourselves with the principles of individual and local sense of self-reliance and responsibility. There is a real need* for the people once more to grasp the fundamental fact that under our system of government they are expected to solve many problems themselves through their municipal and state governments and to combat the tendency that is all too common to-day to turn to their Federal government as the easiest and least hardensome method of lightening their own responsibilities.
"The American principles of ordered freedom, individual rights and responsible government are eternally secure in the safe, keeping of forty-eight sovereign governments directly responsive to the rule and supervision of their citizens. To intrust them to one central authority is to harass their very existence."
And yet right upon the heels of this attempt to limit the sphere of Federal action, the President issued an executive order taking over the control of the local peace officers appointed by the various state and county authorities, for the purpose of enforcing the Eighteenth Amendment. This sweeping assertion of the supremacy of the national government over state and local laws was, nevertheless, in line with the immation conveyed in the statement made by the President, that unless the States meet the requirements of meting out justice between man and man, the national government will be crowded into the position of enlarging its authority at their expense.
The logical result of carrying out this policy outlined by the President would be the employment of town constables and deputy sheriffs to enforce the provisions of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth, as well as the Eighteenth amendments to the Constitution. We should have these state officials enforcing the right of all qualified citizens to vote, in the South as well as in the North, upon pain of the charge of dereliction of duty.
While these Republican leaders are trying to rid themselves of the obligation of enforcing human rights, as guaranteed by the Constitution every step they take only enders their duty plainer and defines their responsibility more definitely. The dilemma is which they have placed themselves is inescapable.

EDITOR SAUNDERS' REMEDY.
W O Saunders is the editor and publisher of the Elizabeth City Independent, which was the reputation of being one of the most capable outspoken and original weeklies in North Carolina. Editor Saunders is also candidate for nomination and election to the next General Assembly, of which he was member in 1919. If elected, he announces his intention to introduce a bill to abolish the death penalty and also to discourage punching on the charge of rape. His argument and remedy are stated as follows

Editor Saunders is also a candidate for nomination and election to the next General Assembly, of which he was a member in 1919. If elected, he announces his intention to introduce a bill to abolish the death penalty and also to discourage lynching on the charge of rape. His argument and remedy are stated as follows
There is a better way to deal with the rape friend than by brutalizing ourselves in the practice of either lynch law or legalized murder. We do not kill a horse made vicious and dangerous by his sex urge, we sterilize the animal, render him docile and harmless and make a good harbor for draught animal of him. That is what we must learn to do with the sexually morbid, degenerate and vicious male of our own kind.
And so I would incorporate in a law to abolish capital punishment a provision that any person, white or black, convicted of criminal assault or an attempt at criminal assault shall be committed to a State Hospital for a season and there subjected to a surgical operation that will relieve him of his sexual madness and make of him an inoffensive, tractable and useful member of society. That's better than killing him. And when you have done that you have made a living example of his kind far more effectuos than any dead one, killed by hard prison walls and hidden away in an unmarked grave.
Yes if nominated and elected to the General Assembly of 1927 I shall appear in Raleigh with a new bill for the abolition of capital punishment.
Of course this suggestion is not altogether new as sterilization for criminals of this tribe has been proposed before as part of their legal punishment. If there was any assurance that such a law could be impartially administered in North Carolina, or any other Southern State, so as to apply to white men who assault black women as well as to black men who assault white women the experiment might be worth the trial. But there are not enough men like editor Saunder in North Carolina to in-
Of course this suggestion is not altogether new as sterilization for criminals of this strophe has been proposed before as part of their legal punishment. If there was any assurance that such a law could be impartially administered in North Carolina, or in any other Southern State, so as to apply to white men who assault black women as well as to black men who assault white women the experiment might be worth the trial. But there are not enough men like Editor Saunder in North Carolina to insure an impartial administration of such a law. The result would be that the white criminals would continue to escape punishment while many an innocent black man would undergo unmerited mutilation upon a false charge.
While the efficacy of capital punishment as a deterrent to crime is still a debatable question at least removes the habitual criminal from continuing his career as a menace to society. Let North Carolina give its present laws a chance to prove their value in reducing crime by a fair and impartial administration of justice without discrimination as to race or color.
THE SCHOMBURG COLLECTION
The announcement made last week that the New York Public Library had acquired the collection of Negro literature and art made by Mr. Arthur A. Schomburg marks a notable step in insuring permanency for this valuable record of racial history and development. This result was made possible by the purchase of the collection by the Carnegie Foundation. The collection consists of several thousand books, rare prints, autographs and manuscripts, and is said to contain virtually every important book written by or about the Negro in this country. It also includes a number of volumes on the subject in French, German, Spanish and other languages.
The collection will be housed temporarily in the Branch Library on West 135th street, a location in which it will be readily accessible to members of the race. It is stated that additions will be made from time to time to this collection, to enhance its
The Washington Eagle of which J. Finley Wilson is editor, printed an editorial headed, "Boycotting the White House," in which it said:
Coolidge has signed the "jim-crow" bathing beach bill. We repeat what was news to all of us last week in order to emphasize the significance of the matter as it relates to the election of a Coolidge man in the Coolidge state when he is to be opposed by one of the best friends that the Negro race has ever had in the Senate.
When William M. Butler goes out to be opposed by David I. Walsh, he will enter the lists as the sponsor of Calvin Coolidge, advocate of racial segregation and signer of the bathing beach proclamation which says, in effect, that the Negro is a pariah and an outcast and should so be stamped by the head of the nation.
Where in the world, outside of such an imperfectly formed mentality, could have been divulged the necessity for signing a bill for a Negro bathing beach? Where was the political mentality of the head of the national committee when Coolidge was engaged in signing? Butler will have to answer for this matter when he faces David I. Walsh in Massachusetts. Negroes of Washington, through the federation of Civic Associations, and the National Association for Advancement of Colored People are quietly preparing to picket the "jim-
Negro Segregation By Pact
(From Brooklyn Daily Eagle)
There are some very important corollaries of the decision of the Supreme Court of the United States that by agreement among themselves white holders of residence property may legally shut out Negroes from buying or leasing such property, and continue the restitution by clauses, covering a long term of years. Section 1197 of the Revised Statutes of the United States runs thus.
All citizens of the United States shall have the same right in every State and Territory as is enjoyed by white citizens thereof as inherent purchasers. They shall hold and convey real and personal property.
Now undoubtedly the primary purpose of this provision was to prevent States or Territories, or municipalities within States or Territories from making laws or ordinances interfering with the equal freedom of Negroes and whites to buy and sell realty. There was, however, much of plausibility in the claim of the Negroes lawyers that what is prohibited to local authorities, viz., discrimination as between races, is thereby inferentially declared contrary to public policies and to permit it to be done by private pact is illegal.
This contention the Supreme Court has overruled Moorfield Story and Louis Marshall are turned down. The common written by Associate Justice Sanford sage. These statutes (Sections 1977, 1978 and 1979) do not in any manner prohibit or invalidate contracts entered into by private individuals in respect to the control and disposition of their own property. So what cannot be done by State law or municipal ordinance can be done by private agreement.
A Notable Triumph
From The Nation New York
A notable triumph for Justice was
the acquittal in Detroit on a second trial
for murder of Henry Sweet, brother
of the Negro physician in front of
whose Detroit residence a steering mob
gathered on September 9, 1923, hooting
and hurting missiles in an effort
to drive him out of that white neigh-
borhood. Shortly afterward there was
firing and one member of the mob
was killed where Dr. Sweet and
all the people in the house eleven
number were arrested and indicted for
murder. On the first trial the jury
disagreed. Henry Sweet was the only
one tried again. Ever effort was
made to convict him. The police man-
fully perused themselves by delicating
that there was no molt. Yet the jury
after three hours of deliberation ac-
quitted the defendant. This is a mem-
orable victory. It establishes the right
of the Negro in Detroit to self-defense and prosecute a Negro with rights on the side of the man

We understand that Mr. Schomburg parted with the ownership of this collection at some sacrifice, in order to insure its permanent safekeeping as an asset of racial development. He is to be congratulated on his public spirit in furthering its purchase by the Carnegie Foundation, so as to promote its use and preservation for the benefit of the whole community. Too many private collections of this sort, though not so extensive in their range, are dispersed upon the death of their owners. The acquisition of this collection by the library authorities marks the way for similar disposition of other collections of this kind.
crowd' bathing beach when erected, and to boycott the politicians, including Senator R S. Copeland of New York, who were instrumental in making the beach an affair for the outcast of the world.
Exactly what form the boycott of the White House is to take is not specified, but it is safe to conclude that Editor Wilson will not attend any more presidential receptions.
The Atlanta Independent concluded that it cannot concur in the bill introduced by Congressman Fish of New York to appropriate thirty thousand dollars to erect a monument to the Negro soldiers in France. It said
The proposition smacks too much of segregation. Those who defended the flag and bared their breasts to shot and shell that Old Glory might continue to wave and make democracy safe for the world should be known as American soldiers, and their deeds of intrepid bravery should be commemorated because of their valour, their gravety and sacrifice and not because of their race. We have too much race distinction already in our government. We are not colored people or white people. We are Americans and the Flag means the same thing to all of us in common. We do not know the object of the bill or what inspired the
than that, it has furnished an extraordinary example of racial solidarity. Within two weeks the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People collected $75,000 for the defense of the Sweets and for two or three other important cases, one before the Supreme Court of the United States. No clearer demonstration of the growing economic power of the Negro and of his determination to fight for his rights and justice has been vouched for. The thanks of every fair-minded American must be given to the association, to Clarence Darrow, Thomas F. Chawke and Jullan W. Perry, the attorneys in the case and to Judge Murphy who presided with admirable fairness
Free Speech
(From The New York World)
There are two issues in the dispute between the Board of Education and certain champions of free speech. The first was raised by the action of the board in withdrawing the permission granted the League of Neighbors to use the Morris High School auditorium for a Peace Week meeting. Jama Weldon Johnson and Arthur (carl) Feldhaven were to speak. For this withdrawal a real defense has been offered. Director Johnny of the extension activities was quoted as saying that nobody would be allowed to use school property who is not firm in his American allegiance. Dr. O Shea was quoted as saving the schools could not be made a forum for views subversive of the Government. The idea that such statements have an application to Mr. Johnson or Mr. Haves is absurd. Why then, were they excluded?
The second issue was raised by the refusal of a request of the Civil Liberties Union for the Stuartwest High School auditorium to be used for a discussion of the tree speech, with Mr. Johnson Mr. Hays and John Haynes Holmes participating. The time a defense was indispensable. That which the board offers is rather limiting. It writes statements by one of the directors and one of the members of the Civil Liberties Union to the effect that legitimate free speech includes the eight to nine crime. Such a position is untenable and probably few of the 6,000 members of the union understand it. But the views of this member are not the point. The real question was whether Measures Holmes Hays and Johnson were proper persons to speak on school premises and the board itself declares that it makes no charge against them or their views.
It is desirable that the limits of the board's legal authority to deny the use of school auditoriums for discussions should be carefully defined. But there is also a question of moral authority involved. The board should have unassailable reasons to pursue matters before the impatient and with what the impatient and with what the impatient are meeting with proper and reputable speakers.

Discussing the reasons for maintenance of separate Jersey, the Red Bank Echo
Red Bank has the envied position of having the best public tenm in New Jersey. There are larger buildings in the town and more costly buildings in Red Bank stands second to none in the state in its efficiency and the methods in preparing the bank for future usefulness in the business world. There are a few our colored people who don' t applane the high standard which Red Bank schools have attested. They want to go back to ante be our days and have in each town of ammong colored schools. The exaust that it gives our people positions as teachers. This excuse is a lame in many cities in the state and teachers are teaching in red schools. All that is necessary qualify. There never was a school in Red Bank and we three never will be

While separate schools always mean inferior facilities for the cooped up they also tend to aggravate race a friction and prevent friendly relation.
According to the Chicago criminal libel suit started by another Chicago weekly against the publishers of the Messenger. New York Socialist magazine was issued out of court. It said
After hearing fifteen wineries out the prosecution in the now famous criminal label suit brought against Chandler Owen and A Phi Randolph by the publishers of The Chicago Whip, Judge Gemmil presiding at the trial, Tuesday, ordered the arrest thrown out of court. The defense had not called a single witness to the stand to refute the charges made Joseph D Bibb, editor of the Whip and his associate, A C Meyer, had Owen and Randolph indicted by the Cook County grand jury upon charges of conspiracy to label following the publication of articles in the Messenger a monthly magazine named that Editors Bibb and Meyer edited the powerful punch behind proseous and well known names of the southside undercover James places and dates were mentioned in the articles
This leaves the publisher of the Whip in rather an embarrassing situation

At the 11 o'clock services Sunday
Pastor Baldog preached from the
text: "Faytit sheeing him, for whom
are all things, and by whom are all
things, in bringing many sons unto
glory, in bringing the captain of their
salvation perfect through sufferings.
For both he that sacrificifth and they
who are sacrificed are all one; for
which cause he is not ashamed to call
them brethren. Forasmuch then as
the children are partkners of flesh
and blood, he also himself likewise
part of the same; that through
death he destroym him that had
the power of death the devil;
and deliver them who threw off of
death all their lifetime object
to bondage." Hebrews 2:10-11-
15-15. Theme: "A new Creation or a
New Disposition."
Pastor Bolden said: "In childhood our minds see every thing as the biggest wonderful thing, for example, our world is the little town or community in which we live. As we grow older our minds expand through travel and the meeting of new people. Each year of our life our mind is ever expanding. Get a grateful heart, be thankful for all things; be thankful not only for the joys received, but be thankful for the trouble and sorrow.
To-day we celebrate Memorial Day. This day was set up to memorialize the who fought in the Civil War. Today we memorialize and pay homage to the unknown older, and by this act memorialize all who gave their life in the world long before Mrs. Eddie, through Christian Science, gave us the thought that Jesus met and mastered on the basis of christian science the power of mind over matter, all the claims of medicine, surgery and hygiene, Paul in Hebrews tells us of

toward minority groups is conclusive proof that nations are not yet prepared for peace for peace must be based on lightheartedness. Directing the spiritual meaning of peace, he said, "Start inward." He who believes in peace must begin it spiritually. Just before summing up, Rei Ims paid a glowing triumph to Col. Charles Young. He urged the congregations to live the life, and make Christ our peace.
Preceding the regular session Rawlins delivered the second of a series of children's seminars on "Horses of the Bible" subject "The Boy Daniel." At the evening service, the Missionary Society presented a visiting speaker from the Presbyterian Board of National Missions, Miss Gardner, who spoke of "Missions in New Mexico" very helpfully.

the wonderful control mind over smaller. Jesus always had his mind on his physical health. It was important to help. The taught in the universities to-day through science and physiology is one of overlasting physical life. This is seen through the wonderful inventions which men are perfecting to kill disease germs, and rebuild careworn bodies to healthy ones.
There would never be a memorial day such as we celebrate if Jesus was physically here. There would be no graveyards, as Jesus raided the dead, Jesus gives immortal bodies. He gives us everlasting life. When God made man in His own image, He had no blood. He was not a warm blooded animal, neither was He a God. He is the same in the mind and in likeness of God. A similar creature. Today, people are being bred by thought intercourse. Through the power of the mind they are being born new creatures. Jesus Christ, our brother, who knew all the laws of nature and animal existence, left no text books, but He left His acts of service in the hearts and minds of the people. He left the Book of Life, for their hungry souls. Life is made perfect through sufferance. We must enjoy the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Jesus' royal line was one of suffering. Through suffering you are made perfect, more like the Christ.
Today there are two diseases prevalent, heart failure and pneumonia. You are vaccinated, you are innoculated with serum, to avoid getting contagious diseases, but through that suffering you are made perfect. One germ is made to fight the other. The reason Jesus our Lord the Emmanuel never was sick was because He had no disease. He did not sin Yet while Jesus had no diseases He courted death. He did this that He might taste death for all humanity We are told and history-proves that Benjamin Franklin flew a kite with a key on it and discovered the utility of lightning which formed the basis of the invention of the gun contrary to the laws of graduation when He said, "And I, if I be lifted up I will draw all men unto me." The dynamic for lighting houses is in a power house. Jesus is the dynamics in human history Jesus our Lord the Emmanuel was not only the power but He was the light that lighteneth every man that cometh into the world. As Jesus was made perfect through suffering

Bridge St. A. M. E. Church
The church and the Christian ministry have as their objective the perfecting of the saints for the work of the ministry, or the edifying of the body of Christ; hence the need of the abiding presence of God in the great task assigned the church and the ministry, was the outstanding thought of the pastor, Dr Edward E. Tyler, at the morning hour of worship, at which time he spoke on the topic, "The Abiding Presence." The text was Exodus 33.12-16. This was a continuation of the series of sermons based on favorite hymns. There he hymn unusually large congregation present, and they were aroused to a patch of high religious fervor, by this sermon which was Dr Tyler's first sermon during the new conference year.
In has introduction the pastor stressed the thought that the moral and religious task assigned to the church is that of conditioning human nature, so as to secure conformity to the divine ideal. The material upon which the church has to work is never the same. It is variable, it is indefinite uncertain, moody, divided in its loyalties, has a lack of stability. In this day and time, human nature is the same as was in the time of Moses, whose undearest basis of the sermon
In discussing the nature of the promise of God's presence abiding with us, the pastor mentioned some of the conditions under which His presence is assured. First, When we are "In the line of duty," Second, when we are in an earnest endeavor to do the right. The proof of the presence is the dissimilarity of the Christians from other peoples. The prime factors in this is the home, the church, the state and the school. The home aids us in right living. The church develops our moral side, the state aids us to live within the law, and the school brings out our intellectual powers.
The following persons joined the church Susie J Evans, 456 Carlton avenue and B Manley, 107 DeKalb avenue.
Mr and Mrs Rudolph Curtis had their son, Rudolph Jr., christened Helen Robinson and M Arrington acted as god mothers. J Whiting and W. M Dunbar acted as god-fathers.
The Res. Mr. Henderson filled the pulpit at the evening hour of worship. He delivered a very helpful sermon. As the junior church was to be installed, he emphasized the thought that the junior church is also the future church, and we should do all we can to encourage the young people. Prior to the presentation of the junior church by the pastor, several musical selections were rendered by members of the junior church A

When the darkness of night had gone and the sun poured from behind the hills and shone forth in its splendor and army giving us here a beautiful Sabbath day on Sunday, our pastor, Rev. C. Brown, as if he had a vision of this day's message, the apostle Paul, in connection with both the morning and evening sermons, one who always carried bright sunshine, and brought light to many in their darkest hours as he were about his work for the Master Theme at the morning service "Strip for the Race," a command of the president's purpose of showing the indispensability of conflict of life's great task, was masterfully disseminated so that heard him, as was the theme at the evening service, "Our Limitations."

Hildale Wins And Takes Second Place In Eastern League
Philadelphia, Pa.—Rain in the morning prevented Hilldale and the Baltimore Black Sox from playing the first game of a scheduled holiday bill. In the afternoon Hilldale won a 7-6 victory before 10.000' fans and took second place in the Eastern League race. Judy Johnson supplied the final punch by doubling to centerfield and scoring Warfield for the winning run. This was the fourth hit for Johnson during the day
Apparently beaten, Hilldale staged a great batting rally in the ninth inning which gave them 4 runs. Stevens, the first man up, singled over Day's head. Winters doubled into the center-field crowd. Briggs singled and scored Stevens, Warfield singled and scored Winters. Mackey's sacrifice fly to center field let Briggs in for the run which tied the score and Johnson brought in the winning tally. Four home runs featured the contest George Carr got two and the others were made by Jud Wilson and "Heavy Johnson" for Baltimore

Savoy Ballroom Has School of Courtesy For Its Employees
The Savoy Ballroom, Harlem's most popular place of entertainment, has inaugurated a "School of Courtesy", which each employee must attend twice each week. The purpose of the school is to teach the Savoy staff the value of courtesy and the most intelligent means of handling the public. In an institution as large as the Savoy it is nearly impossible for the management to watch each employee individually to see that each one is courteous and intent on helping the patrons.
For this reason a merit system has been inaugurated. This system gives each member of the organization the opportunity to share in the profits of the establishment according to their standing in this respect. Bonuses are distributed monthly

Osprey Brooks, tenor, a pupil of the Wilhelm Lamb Studio, Orange, N.J.; and a longtime member of the choir which plays at Mt. Olivet Baptist Church, East Orange, under Mr. Lamb's direction, made his concert debut on Wednesday night, May 26 at St. John's M. E. Church; Orange, the Ret. W. A. Miles, pastor, under auspices of the Parsonage Committee, Mrs. Callaway, president.
A goodly audience was present and they gave the singer a reception that amounted almost to an ovation. And the artist deserved it, for he gave a vocal exhibition which demonstrated his right to be given serious consideration as a singer. Mr. Brooks has made a considerable stride forward in his music development, and displayed to his hearers on this occasion a vocal equipment of more than ordinary quality. A natural organ of merit has been carefully and intelligently developed, and it is not saying too much to predict that consistent and sane application will rbing Mr. Brooks to a definite and advanced position in the ranks of American singers.
The program included the aerial, "Whereer you walk" by Handel; Kashmiri Song by Finden; "Mapari tut amor" from Flotow's "Martha"; Massenet's "Eligie"; "Still wie die nacht" by Bohm; a group by Cutsam, Pichtha and Doorak; the aerial from "Hawatha", "Onaway, awake, Beloved, by Coleridge-Taylor, and a group of Spirituals arranged by Burleigh. To each programed group the singer graziosus added encore name speaks. Speaks "Sylvia, Cadman's My desire, Margetson's "Tommy Lad, Lieuances "Pale Moon," and "Sometimes I feel like a motherless child" by Burleigh.
The accompaniments were played by Mr. Cora Wynn Alexander, but the piano used was an admonition. Only the skill of the pianist prevented utter devastation
Harleim Community Chorus
Makes Initial Appearance
The initial appearance of the Harlem Community Chorus, a musical venture sponsored by the Amsterdam New under the management of William M Kelley, attracted a not very large audience to the auditorium of Junior High School No. 168 of St. Nicholas avenue and 13th street, on Friday evening, May 28. The chorus, announced as an outgrowth of a social contest held last year at Town Hall was under the direction of Max Duttsman, a white musician from The Bronx, who has a studio in Carnegie Hall.
Mime Jessie Andrew Zacken, the charming and unusually gifted singer who came to New York from the altitudinous region of Denver was the second and New York's own talented little Iydia Mason, pianist was the accompanist.
From the standpoint of musical accomplishment the chorus did well. Its condition of numbers by Bethver Burleigh, Schubert Saint Saens Offenbach and Dert was with nice shadings and development of nuances but much improvement is possible in balance and tonal quality.
Mrs. Zackerv's singing, as usual was much enjoyed but her voice seemed to lack some of its vibrant color and intriguing allure. Songs by stretch annoff, Watts, Scott Gregg and the Air and Variations by Proch constituted her programmed offerings, and an added number. "Drink to me only with thine eyes." was perhaps her best effort. Miss Masons work as accompanist was beyond call or criticism. Curious comment was stirred by the employing of a white musician to conduct the chorus and a number of their present depressed the part that the management had not called into service some one of the many capable men for women for that matter among Negro musicians in New York City. Mr. Keller when spoken to concerning this made no explanation as to why Mr. Dutman had been employed but declared that Professor William A. Calhoun, director of the Lection Baptist Church, who conducts a music studio at his home 223 West Avenue had been engaged as an assistant conductor but had never put in an appearance at a rehearsal.

Dr. Lykes, one of the oldest presiding elders of the same church; A. P.
