Pace Cites Ellks History and Says It Is Time To Clean House; Carter Comes With Charges That Pace Misrepresents
All Elections, comprising the confines of the Independent, Beevolent, Protective Order of Ells of the World, are being stirred from center to circumference by the bitter, acrimonious controversy raging between the present Grand Treasurer, James T. Carter, of Richmond, Va., and the former Grand Exalted Ruler and Grand Secretary Harry H. Pace of New York, who is making a campaign for election at Cleveland in August, next, to his former position as Grand Secretary.
Several communications from the two contenders have been given the public through the newspapers of the country, and The Age, without taking aides in the controversy, is giving to its readers this week extracts from the last letters sent out from the offices of Mr. Pace and Mr. Carter, the latter under date of June 5, the former sent out June 7.
BROOKLYN JURY, AFTER TWENTY MINTUES DELIBERATION, FREES POLICEMAN CHARGED WITH FELONIOUS ASSAULT ON MRS. BENSON
Harry Pace Says Elks Need A House Cleaning
To the Lodges of I B P O Elks
There is on old adage that
"the hit dog holler" Perhaps that is why Brother James T Carter, Treasurer of the I B P O Elks, has trusty typewriter in hand to make an attack on me. Or maybe it is the desire of Brother Carter to draw attention away from the main maters at issue and to try and save Grand Secretary Bates from further exposure.
At any rate I am not a candidate for Brother Carter's job. Grand Treasurer have never attacked Brother Carter, nor impugned his honesty, nor assailed his record but since he seems desirous of himself into the breach to save his friend and boss, I accept his challenge and I shall, in this and in a future statement give him some attention as well as his boss.
Knows Inside History
Brotherhood is the belief that a person is intended to be a brother of the Order, I have never interrupted such an assumption, and I do assert that I know as much about the real inside history of the Order as any man alive, and if Brother Carter desires to exchange some important statements with me, I can tell the Brotherhood some of that history which may be a little less pleasant to read than what I am writing now. I know, the instance what an good _____ (Continued on Second Page)
Police intimidation and coercion is alleged to be responsible for the testimony given by witnesses in the trial of Policeman Thomas I. McUlrike of 1235 Fifth sixth street Brooklyn, attached to the 31st Presidential charged with felonious assault upon woman, of 1723 Dean Street Brooklyn on March 4 last. The verdict not Gulliver added in by the jury only twenty minutes deliberation attributed to the concluding testimony of witnesses who had evidently been reached by police threats or cajolers.
Mrs Benson, a respectable married woman, was making an early morning trip to a store on U.S. avenue near her home for breakfast supplies, when she was approached by McUlrike, who was in plain clothes and invited to take a ride with him in his ear, which was parked nearby and for a good time she was the incidentantly refused the insulting invitation. The officer it is alleged, struck knocking her down, and heat her so severely that she wasinnen to bed for several days.
Struck White Woman Too
A young white woman Miss Tela Thouliac, who lives at 84 N. Utica avenue, who protested the policeman's treatment of the colored woman was also struck, her eyeglasses being broken by the blow. Both women swore but warrants against Mr. Auille, who was traced through a cense number in the auto mobile which he was driving at, and whose move was made by police officials until the Brooklyn Eagle published the affair, and two days elapsed before Mr. Auille was arrested and arranged in Gates Avenue Court.
The officer was held in $3,500 bail on March 6, and on March 8 the case was adjourned two weeks because Mrs. Benson was unable to appear in court. On March 22 McNillie a lawyer pleaded pressing business elsewhere secured another adjournment Mrs. Benson and Mrs. McNillie were both present. Then on March 25, his lawyer Lawrence McGoldrick, reported all. In the reporttime the colored citizens of Brooklyn became indignant at the parramit deliberate delay in the trial, and after a protest meeting held at Holy Trinity Baptist Church De Kalk avenue, the Rev Dr. S. Harten, pastor, a protest parade to Bengal Hal was made on March 29.
Carter Charges Pace Misrepresents Facts
Richmond, Va., June 5th, 1926.
The article which Harry Pace publishes over his signature in the Pittsburgh Courter of June 5th, 1926, which some one has dignified by styling in an "Answer" to my letter of May 24th continues me of the institutions of wasting time on one so insurable to the most ordinary rules of fair play. Not one word in his long describe explains why he made the following statements:
"The Order of Elks has around $100,000 in cash, $50,000 of which is on deposit in two white banks in Richmond Virginia. One of these banks pays no interest whatever on a $17,000 deposit they have had for nearly 10 years, while another pays two per cent on $34,000 that has been with them for a long time."
"I have sought for many years to have this money properly invested or to be distributed for deposited among our worthy banking institutions operated by our own people."
"One of these is the Grand Secretary and the other is the Grand Treasurer both of whom have blocked every effort to put all of this money in colored banks."
A Mistrepresentation
He is guilty of a deliberate misrepresentation of the facts; he outstaffs a desire to deceive the authorities and is to the grandstand. He dares (Continued on Second Page)
Hilton on March 30 District Attorney Dodd announced that the case had been given the grand jury. On April 1 the grand jury handed down an indictment against McAuliffe and was held in $2,500 for trial. The case was called on June 3 in the Kings County Supreme Court Judge the case was presented to trial all delay canned. The trial was an unanimous verd. The trial opened at 11 a.m. and before court adjourned at night a jury had been selected system witnesses were heard both sides had signed up the judge had charged the man that body had retested and a suspect of not guilty had been rendered. George A. Wasson a former Assistant District Attorney defended McAuliffe while the judge's case was presented by Assistant District Attorney Kondt.
Witnesses Were Weak
Witnesses who pressurously had given in the most damaging sort of evidence against the policeman were found to have value and outlining memories as to the events of that morning and it was freely alleged by those familiar with the case that the witnesses were afraid to stick to their original testimonies of fear of police retaliation. It was also omitted that attempts had been made to have a stop put in activities which had been carried out and to incite the apparent delay and that certain witnesses financial and otherwise had been freely exerted toward this end. Meulife on the stand, demed that he had tried either woman and told a tale of having been in all on a friend one Conroy manager of a chain store in that neighborhood and that he was pursuing two suspicious characters when he collided with Mrs. Blenen who held on to him and insisted on making a serious affair in the murder. Just how serious it might be judged from the fact that the man was kept in bed on days physical incapacitated under a dress care with head and face swatched in handages as a result of the experience. Many curious inquiries have been made as to how the jury could have in the short space of twenty minutes come to the conclusion that there was nothing in the case and there inquiries are still up in the air unanswered.

Another St. Nicholas Ave. Apartment House For Colored Tenants
The Manhattan Leasing Company, a corporation which has been in the reality business for more than fifteen years, has opened one of their St Nicholas avenue houses for colored tenants.

The report is that the blow around the three colored girls in an attack on the man who passed the blow said to have breed McDonald and that in the meantime, Paston Tereen came to the defense of his tenure in patrol and tackled McHellel said to be the original cause of the meter. When McDonald saw McHellel in an encounter with Tereen, it was a tough much more of a man physically than McHellel. McDonald got away from the girls who were hitting and killing him, and was in the defense of his friend McHellel. Green was given a good hearing according to the report, finally throwing up his hands saying he had on chin. Then he let

Then he alleged Mahoney had in the back the knife and the knife in the collar, which she and the other men then made a grapple with the small bench behind her and she ate at the rear and then thought he had been with her.

VARIOUS FRATS TO FORM COUNCIL AND WORK FOR SCHOOLS Takes Up Conditions In Jr. High 136, and Will Make
Members of the various colleges Greek letter fraternities and i sororities, in New York City have formed an interfraternity council, a meeting for that purpose having been called at the Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity house, 203 West 138th street on Friday, June 4, and one of the important matters taken up for consideration by the fraternity of the insignal of Junior High School 136, Miss Elise Kornmann, with reference to the classifying and class placement of the colored girls in that school.
Tangible form was given this discussion by consideration of a circular prepared and distributed by Miss Kormann in which emphasis was given the advantage - be gained by pupil taking the industrial course as compared with the difficulties and disadvantages attending the general course leading to high school and college work.

The formation of a Parent-Teacher Association in the same school was also discussed, and a committee of five was named to make investigation of conditions and report back to the interfraternity council.
Recent complaints as to the attitude of Miss Kormann toward the Negro pupils in her school led to a discussion as to the policy in vogue in the city junior high schools, and it was suggested that a committee be named to make a general survey of the junior high school situation. This was done, with James H. Huthern of the New York Public School as chairman. William H. Huthern as secretary, and a committee to effect a permanent organization, with prospective constitution and bywls was named with Ira de Reid as norman

NEGRO AND SPANISH BANKERS FROZEN OUT
'Hymie,' Former Bootlegger King, Now Wants Title Of 'Numbers' King
The opportunity to put up an insignificant sum of money with the redeemable possibility of being lucky enough to win a large sum in return has an irresistible lure to many people, and this quality of human nature is advantage of to the fullest extent by the group of men who are instrumental in giving the people a chance to play the "Numbers" game—where you put up a penny and take down 50 if you win—odds of 600 to one.
"Numbers playing is on a steady increase in Greater New York—not in Harlem alone, but all over. And the enormous profits to be gotten from backing not playing the game—that is, from being a banker or a collector has led to a concerted effort on part of a certain group of Jewish bankers to corral the whole game to their own benefit.
Herman Kassell, formerly one of Harlem's bootleggers operating at one time as many as a dozen speak-easers, is alleged to be trying now to become a "numbers" king by getting a monopolistic stranglehold
employ the men and women as barkers and runners by the other bankers, especially those whose lists of customers are large, with players who put up quite some each day in the vain hope of making a big winning
"Hymie" It Not Popular
It does not make Hymen' any popular pop with his yellow bankers, and when he speaks of him it is with undrawn breath and missing hate. He is characterised as a 'skunky' a double crossing kike and various other spots more emphatic than elegant. Others in the banking game are Men Immerman, Le Bros and one that main him having been associated with Hymen' basked during his bootlegging days. But it is to be doubted that their association is as ample now as it was then. It is alleged that the men have runners and investors taking for them that make their headquarters in nearly every area and make store on lenins and beehives avenues and in butcheries and on ice cream parlors. These legitimate businesses are a choke to the activities of the numbers men and that is made possible by that owners of these establishments are easily built in their collections with the numbers men are willing to pay. In return for the considerable financial increment this brings the store keepers are usually willing to move where possible their gallible and unimproved customers into playing the game.
Crowding Out Negro Bankers
Not understanding their personal differences the big Jewish bankers are presenting a solid strom in the fight to crawl out the Negro and Spanish operators. Through their alleged influence with the law, enforcement forces the Negro operators are being represented from working in the street or on a apartheid group. They are quickly ordered to move along and as the players is always sure that when he misses making a pass he misses the winning chance he will burst in one of the store headquarters of the syndicate to get his place in it. It is positively asserted in this connection that police officers are as familiar with the operations of the numbers people as they are of the bootleggers and that of the people were above taking part from them the game would soon be put out of business. But as proof that the contracts in the case the store is told that there is an agreed code system used which saved the numbers men from interference.
Using The Cigar Stores
It is alleged that bankers who have an unsteady standing with the police furnish the employees with a certain card bearing a capal to problem of some sort which is quickly recognized by the officer when it is shown and this card is to be used when the manner of collector unwittings falls into the hands of the law. The card is supposed to establish the fact that the binder is with a banker who is right and freedom or relief from further espionage is the immediate result. The charge is made that certain of the United Lugar Stores Co. are used

ational Urban League before a brittle
bathing of students alumni and
friends including officials in the
state of West Virginia, delivered the com-
mencement address at West Virginia
College Institute on June 2.
Mr. Jones declared that Success in life calls for through preparation Success in American life today is traught with keen competition. I also spies of sungal success by members of the race in many diversified lines led Mr. Jones to the conclusion that there can be no generalization made of the Negro's capacity and outlook and therefore the generalization of the type of training Negro's should contribute to the welfare of humanity in some definite lane. Achievement should be your pathway. The aggregate service that Negro's to our country's prosperity has been tremendous. This service could be even greater with a better type of leadership which we should help to develop.

It is to the ranks of that great company of consecrated human beings that we are advenient to your day. We want a greater success for you than what they themselves, in spite of many difficulties, have been able to achieve, right here in the south as well as in other parts of the country.
"Of course, you will have to face difficulties—men who have achieved any worthwhile work have generally had difficulties, and 'difficulties, misunderstandings among their own people as well as other peoples.
· Must Go Through Valley
"I do not ask, Tuskeguee does not ask that you be shielded from difficulties and trials. We only ask that you be given wisdom, patience, courage and strength to face the difficulties.

Charence Darrow Is Speaker At Fisk To Students and Faculty
Nashville, Term—Livingston Chapel at Fisk University was filled to overflowing with the students, faculty and neighbors of the university to hear Clayence S. Darrow of Chicago, distinguished criminal lawyer, Tuesday afternoon, June 1. Mr. Darrow accompanied by Judge Neal and several other notables in the famous Scopes case. Mr. Darrow was presented to the audience by J. C. Napler, ex-Registerer of the U. S. Treasury and a trustee of Fisk University.
Mr. Darrow's talk was chiefly on the race problem as it affects Negroes in the United States. His advice was sound and timely. Tracing at length his own ancestry back to abolition days, when, as he said, his father's house was frequented by Sojourner Truth, Roger Pillarsbury, Merick Douglas, and other note Negroes who were prominent in the agitation for the abolition of slavery, he stated that his intimate friendships with accomplished Negroes of today, together with an interest that he might well call a heritage from his father, served to convince him that racial barriers imaginary things; indeed, if one might speak of such a thing as "race" at all.
Color An Acident
Asserting that his being white was as accidental) as any other of Nature's peculiarities, the speaker declared that if his race were a thing he could cause or cure, he might be perhaps a little affirmed to admit his racial identity under some circumstances. "I do not want to be the thing, but I must have no racial prejudice. The fact remains, however, that racial prejudice is an almost universal thing in the South, and the North is very little better. Is it on account of color? Hardly. Color is itself a foolish reason for prejudice. Is it race? because irrational basis for prejudice; because of race, that is probably the result, a belief that the Lord created several branches of the human family, black, blue, green and red men. My knowledge of science, however, and I am supported in this belief by the scientists of today, leads me to the knowledge that there is only one race and that is the human Climatic conditions which we have no control will serve in a course of years to eliminate, probably, the question of race as we know it today."
Hates To Give Advice
Speaking of advice, Darrow said that he listed to give the Negro or anybody else advice. "Advice is cheap and is generally worth what it costs, but I might well say that the Negroes have got to get education and to continue getting it. As far as possible, they must get into independent business of some sort. They must stop undertaking jobs that carry tips with them. They have got to move from the class that takes tips to the class that gives tips. The Negro must develop whatever fields open and make new fields. He can succeed on the stage. Some write, some can speak. Whenever the Negro finds that talent, he must develop it and he must have property, and down in Florida not long ago and naturally I was interrupted on the race problem. To my delight, every white man whom I ask told me readily that the Negroes were getting education and getting real estate along, with it. These two factors will go farther toward solving the race problem as we have it in America than anything else I know.

2. Growth should be mapped out for Negro neighborhoods in growing cities.
Municipalities should be influenced to develop some of these neighborhoods into high class residential sections where homes of the owners can be proud to be built. These neighborhoods should be protected by adequate improvement and supplied with a variety of amenities.
The commission should release the negroes from high rents and minimize conditions both white and Negro capital into building rental houses to return a reasonable rent to the investor.
44 The rate at which the ambien tions Negroes are busing homes inhabits remarkably praxeworthy progress and should be stimulated by modifying both white and negro capital with ing and brain organizations more gesational.

PROTESTS AT GENEVA.
The halls of the League of Nations at Geneva, under the asylum of neutrality afforded by the republic of Switzerland, resounded last week to the protests of representatives of several of the exploited colored races of the world. In the session of the League's Opium Advisory Commission, Chu Chao Hsin, former Chinese envoy to London and now minister at Rome, resented what he called an insult to the Chinese government and people and recalled the opium war in which the British forced the Chinese to become slaves to India's opium. He added that for years Great Britain had authorized the importation of raw opium for the manufacture of morphia, which was sold exclusively to China. He declared that China would soon tear up her unequal treaties, regardless of the other powers.
In the International Labor Conference also at Geneva, the workers' delegates of several nations, chiefly India, denounced Great Britain and Japan for oppressing men and women of the darker races. Loipat Rai a Laborite from India was the principal figure in this demonstration. He demanded that the League labor office investigate working class conditions in India, China and Japan. He referred to the supplanting of white labor in the United States by colored and said that European industrialists are now prepared to utilize the cheap labor on the Orient. Declaring that "forced labor worse than slavery" is rampant in India, the Kenya colonies in Africa, the Fiji Islands and in South Africa he appealed to Japan "as the only free, progressive Asiatic state which can vindicate the honor of the East."
The force of this appeal was weakened when Margaret Bondfield, English Laborite, and Sir Atul Chatterjee, Indian government delegate accused Japan as "the country which while desiring to take a place among civilized nations is creating wealth on the souls of helpless women and children." Their charges that Japanese women and children worked in mines and textile mills all night long, was strenuously denied by the Japanese government delegates. Nothing was said apparently against child labor conditions in the United States or peonage in Georgia and Florida.
If the League of Nations does nothing else, it provides an open hearing for the pleas and protests of the exploited races and oppressed minorities of the world. At Geneva they may raise their voices against oppression and exploitation by stronger powers. While there may be no immediate response to such appeals to Cesar, there must be a moral effect in the future. China, India Haiti, Liberia and all the weaker nations of the earth should not hesitate to carry their troubles to Geneva for an airing with the possible otter of some day obtaining redress.

The President metress a fair smile and no word of approval as she exited him. I evidently the President saw not very strongly impressed by the pledge of the support of the Tennessee delegation so far ahead at time. Many things can happen before the meeting at the next Republican National convention. Hence the funniness of the smile and the absence of approval. The Tennessee woman was a troublemaker, not especially. No bad word.

SAVING EUROPEAN PRESTIGE
There was an appearance of prearrangement in the sudden submission of Abd el Krum, the leader of the Roff rebellion in Morocco, after a year of warfare in which the combined efforts of both the French and Spanish failed to obtain him. In fact the severest blow the hill assaults were delivered to the guardsquadron of American army.
There was an appearance of pre arrangement in the sudden submission of Abd el Krum, the leader of the Kiff rebellion in Morocco after a year of warfare in which the combined efforts of both the French and Spanish failed to abolish him. In fact the severest blow the Kiff regents were delivered to the guiding quadron of American aviators the lefence
native images occupied mostly by wo
men and children and old men beyond the fighting age. This sort of warfare was discountenanced by our State Department and finally discontinued by the French, who disbanded the American bombers with medals and felicitations some months ago.
Peace negotiations between representatives of the Riffs and the French and Spanish were entered into this spring, but so far as the public was informed they were inconclusive. Despite this apparent failure to agree on terms of settlement, there is reason to believe that some solution was arrived at to cause Abd-el Krim's surrender without waiting for a decisive defeat. The announcement issued from the French Foreign Office, as cabled by the Paris Bureau of the New York Herald Tribune, read:
"Abd-el-Krim has surrendered, placing himself, his family and his goods under the protection of France. With the capture of Djebel Hamman all the objectives of the Franco-Spanish forces as fixed at the Madrid conference are attained."
This announcement was plainly intended to save the face of both governments and measure the French and Spanish people that their sacrifices of life and money in Morocco had achieved some tangible results. Much satisfaction was expressed in Paris that the king drawn-out campaign, which was regarded as both senseless and costly, had been ended. Efforts have been made to account for the submission of the Riff chieftain to the ground that he had over-estimated the forces arrayed against him, but there did not appear to be a sufficient change in the military situation to warrant this belief. He had signally defeated the Spanish forces, by capturing an army of twenty thousand men, while the French had failed to corner them.
The surrender of Abd-el-Krim came too opportunely to save French prestige to believe that the way for it was not prepared to the peace negotiations held this Spring. There are references to certain mining concessions which have played an important, though hidden, part in this Moroccan business, in which British and German interests were concerned. These must have had a hand bringing about this result, as they were edited with furnishing the funds for Abd-el-Krim's war chest.
At all events, European prestige has been saved for a while longer and a new field for European exploitation opened in Morocco. The Socialists will be deprived of chandy weapon against the present French government. Abd-el-Krim's portion of the awards probably will be revealed by future events.
This announcement was plainly intended to save the face of both governments and assure the French and Spanish people that their sacrifices of life and money in Morocco had achieved some tangible results. Much satisfaction was expressed in Paris that the long drawn-out campaign, which was regarded as both senseless and costly, had been ended. Efforts have been made to account for the submission of the Riff chieftain on the ground that he had over-estimated the forces' arrayed against him, but there did not appear to be a sufficient change in the military situation to warrant this belief. He had signally defeated the Spanish forces, by capturing an army of twenty thousand men, while the French had failed to corner him.
The surrender of Abd-al-Krim came too opportunely to save French prestige to believe that the way for it was not prepared in the peace negotiations held this Spring. There are references to certain mining concessions which have played an important, though hidden, part in this Moroccan business, in which British and German interests were concerned. These must have had a hand in bringing about this result, as they were credited with furnishing the funds for Abd-al-Krim's war chest
At all events, European prestige has been saved for a while longer and a new field for European exploitation opened in Morocco. The Socialists will be deprived of a handy weapon against the present French government Abd-el-Krim's portion of the rewards probably will be revealed by future events.
A PROGRAM FOR THE SEASON
The month of June marks the height of the commencement season, when the various institutions of learning are turning out their annual crop of graduates, trained to the necessary point for usefulness in some sphere of commercial or professional activity. It also marks the season of annual and biennial conventions of many of our racial organizations, bringing together delegates from various sections for the improvement of fraternal or business relations. It seems that there ought to be some way to combine these two movements into the evolving of a constructive program for development along business and commercial lines
The month of June marks the height of the commencement season, when the various institutions of learning are turning out their annual crop of graduates, trained to the necessary point for usefulness in some where of commercial or professional activity.
While the various national organizations that meet in annual conventions have some specific purpose to serve there should be rooms for serious consideration of the propriety and necessity of providing employment for the youth of the race, who have spent the past four years in acquiring the requisite training for business and commercial careers. These national organizations all possess substantial sums in their various treasuries which should be set to work for the benefit of the race in a wider sense than providing sick and death benefits for their members and their beneficiaries.
A certain proportion of the funds should be invested in such agencies as have been or shall be, instituted for the promotion of business enterprises. Some of the fraternal organizations have already ventured into the business field to a limited extent by engaging in real estate investments, not only for the purpose of providing accommodations for their local lodges but for the community at large. Some of these investments have taken the form of housing for tenants which have proved both safe and profitable. There is no reason why such investments should not be extended to other fields of activity under careful and sound management so as to provide the ethical results.
The investment of funds, in enter- prices should be left to casual or super- ficial investment, but should be done in the form of instructs, programs and the retraining to produce the desired results. The total amount of funds controlled by these organizations runs up into the mil- lions most of which is deposited in banks, drawing but a small rate of interest. Under careful and trained management a large proportion of such funds could be used to help build up business and provide employ- ment for the increasing number of trained graduates that are turning out. The lodges and other organizations keep linked together in the bonds of brotherhood,
which is right and proper in fulfilling their fraternal obligations. It might be well however, for them to extend these links, so as to promote the business development of the whole community. By so doing they would make their standing stronger as promoters of racial development along business lines.
TARIFF FOR PROTECTION.
A syndicated news article from Washington, which has appeared in a number of the Negro weeklies, treats of the "Plight of Negro Brickmakers," due to the importation of foreign bricks. While the article is evidently inspired by the manufacturers of the industry, the object aimed at is not so clear. If the figures relating to the industry are correctly given, the matter deserves serious investigation. We reproduce the article below:
A syndicated news article from Washington, which has appeared in a number of the Negro weeklies, treats of the "Plight of Negro Brickmakers," due to the importation of foreign bricks. While the article is evidently inspired by the manufacturers of the industry, the object aimed at is not so clear. If the figures relating to the industry are correctly given, the matter deserves serious investigation. We reproduce the article below:
Employed in the brick, tile and terra cotta factories in the United States are more than 10,000 colored wage-earners, who receive approximately $12,000,000 per year in wages. Dependent upon these wage earners for their shelter, food, clothes and education are more than 25,000 women and children.
But now this great industry, which gives employment to 103,000 people, is menaced, according to the "Monthly Digest," just issued by the Common Brick Manufacturers' Association of America, "to an extent that suggests its complete annihilation," due to the fact that European manufacturers are SHIPPING INTO THIS COUNTRY, each year, millions of bricks made by wage earners who receive about one-quarter of the wages paid for similar work in the United States. It is claimed that if the present rate of increase of foreign bricks is maintained it is a matter of only a few years until the importations will have completely displaced the American product. The foreign-made brick is sold below the price of the American brick, the importers selling their product just under the lowest possible price at which the American manufacturer can sell for. An important point is that the importation of these large quantities of brick has not lowered construction costs in America nor reduced rents, and that all of the benefits go to the foreign manufacturer and his selling agents
The masters of the brick making industry are evidently preparing the way for a change of some kind. If the competition is as serious as claimed, it may mean a reduction of wages, fewer workmen employed or even the closing of the plants. Manufacturers cannot and will not produce any class of goods at a loss. Industry is not conducted on that basis.
There is also the assumption to be made that this attack upon the importation of foreign bricks is merely the opening gun in a campaign for increased tariff protection for home industry. While the Democratic doctrine has always been a tariff for revenue only, the Republican theory and practice have demanded a tariff for the protection of American industries. This would warrant the brick manufacturers in asking for customs duties on imported brick sufficiently high to equalize the cost with that of domestic brick. The last paragraph of the article seems to point in that direction by insisting that construction costs have not been lowered nor rents reduced through the importation of foreign bricks.
One of the functions of the United States Tariff Commission has to do with such situations as this, namely the investigation of the causes and effects relating to competition of foreign industries with those of the United States, including dumping and cost of production. It has been claimed by some of our writers that the chief effect of a protective tariff, so far as the Negro was concerned was to increase the cost of living. Here is a situation where it might work to the advantage of the workers of the race in the brick industry.
We look to such Republican leaders as Senator Smoot, who is an expert on tariff schedules, to explain the effect of increasing the duty on imported bricks.

REPUBLICAN TIMIDITY
The way in which the Republican majority in the United States Senate has permitted one audacious Democrat, in the person of Senator Pat Harrison of Mississippi, to reverse their decision to confirm the nomination of James A. Cobb for a municipal court judgship argues greater timidity than a fitting wearer of the senatorial toga or else to great subsistence to the tradition of senatorial courtesy. Political cowardice and lack of backbone have been the twin evils of latterday Republicans especially in the United States Senate. It was the predominance of these sentiments that drove the majority more than once to such humiliating retreat on the passage of anti-limiting legislation, to which the party had given its solemn pledge in its national platforms.
But to return to the nomination of Mr. Cobb which has come up in the Senate several times since his confirmation was reconsidered without teaching any decided result. The Washington Tribune offered the following explanation of the dilatory tactics pursued.

It is understood that if Senator Harrison is permitted to make the speech in open session on the subject which he wishes to make, to the detriment of William M. Butler, and to the laud and praise of David I. Walsh of Massachusetts he will eventually discontinue his filibuster against the nomination, and let Cobb pass.
This explanation shows the pititable weakness to which Republican leadership is reduced, when a Democrat like Pat Harrison
This explanation shows the puttable weakness to which Republican leadership is reduced, when a Democrat like Pat Harrison
can dictate such terms to a Republican Senate. Imagine what the reply of oldtime Republicans like Roscoe Conkling, Zach Chandler, John A. Logau, William E. Chandler of Vermont or even the frascible Ingalls of Kansas would have been to such a challenge. The breed of Republicans has degenerated since those days and stalwartism is almost a lost quality in the party. Timidity is the keynote on which present party policies are founded, with the chief end of serving capital and property interests. The cause of human rights has but few champions left in either of the great parties.
The time is ripe for the revival of a stalwart Republicanism, based on the vindication of bf-human rights rather than the sordid service of capital and the exploitation of the weaker groups of our citizenship.
MR. BORAH ON THE CONSTITUTION.
The position taken by Senator Borah, in his recent speech made at Baltimore, in advocacy of the literal enforcement of the Eighteenth Amendment, was construed by the New York World in a manner calculated to embarrass the Senator from Idaho. This exponent of Democratic doctrines held, that if Senator Borah took the position that all parts of the Constitution are equally sacred, then he had spent his life helping to nullify and destroy that historic document. It pointed to the existence of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth amendments as proof of this statement and asked Mr. Borah what he had to say about them
The Age has pointed to these same amendments and inquired vainly of Mr. Borah and his fellow Senators the same questions, or questions of equivalent meaning, as those that the World has propounded. But these Republicans of light and leading have all evaded the questions relating to the open nullification of the two earlier amendments. They have ignored all such inquiries, and followed the example set by James G. Blaine nearly half a century ago, of refusing to take any measures for their enforcement.
The challenge of the World to Mr. Borah is a purely Democratic argument, but it is based on the past policy of Republicans in failing to enforce these two constitutional amendments, so the questions are pertinent to the position taken in regard to the prohibition amendment When Mr. Borah is asked whether his argument about the Eighteenth amendment applies also to the Fourteenth and Fifteenth what answer can be given? If he is the able unbiased constitutional lawyer, he must answer yes. If he answers otherwise, the further question arises, why is the Eighteenth amendment more important and more vital to self-government that the others? The answer to this is, that it is neither of these things.
The World's conclusion that until Mr. Borah comes out for the enforcement of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth amendments as well as the Eighteenth, it will not be "in the least concerned by his high-sounding but fundamentally hollow tirade" is fortified by sound reasoning and logical deductions.
MISS BURROUGHS' SCHOOL
Dr Carter G. Woodson director of the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History has issued an appeal for aid in behalf of the National Training School for Women and Girls at Washington of which Miss Nannie H. Burroughs the founder and promoter. Dr Woodson is of the opinion that the main building which was recently burned should not be rebuilt. He says what is needed is a large brick structure, to cost not less than one hundred thousand dollars, and spacious enough for administrative purposes and for housing laboratories and teaching equipment.
Dr Woodson well says that few persons realize the value of the services rendered by Miss Burroughs. He galls her a wo
COMMENTS BY THE AGE EDITORS
Referring to the unexpected death of Charles Miller, known from his liberality as "Tip" Miller, the Buffalo Booster said:
A man of considerable wealth, prominent in fraternal organizations, with a good record as to business ability, yet he dies without leaving a will of any kind so far as can be found out, not being over 45 years of age and there seem to be no living relatives. This seems almost impossible. If it is not impossible, it certainly is not very probable that his entire relationship has been wiped out root and branch in so short a time. Be that as it may, the lesson has been brought home forcibly by the fact that a member of the race has passed on to the beyond and left his fortune to the rich state of New York while hundreds of needy and deserving race institutions are badly in need of financial assistance
The moral drawn by the Booster was, Always make a will and leave it where it can be found. It was stated that Miller was a native of Chattanooga, Tenn., and came to Buffalo in 1901. His estate was estimated at $100,000 which in default of heirs will go to the State
The Washington Sentuel quoted Lieut Thomas H. R. Clarke, a Washington real estate operator, as pointing out the necessity and the opportunity for financing our own enterprises. He said.
"One firm in this city loaned over six hundred thousand dollars last year to colored home-buyers. This particular firm has had many years of experience in dealing with colored property owners and has never had a loss. Yet even this firm does not care for loans in certain parts of the city. It does seem that if we should make the attempt to organize on a large scale our unused funds and create large reserves of money in many parts of the country, it could be safely employed in financing residence properties of the race in localities where for one reason or another white capital declines to go. Such reserves would be needful protection against malevolent elements in the event of financial disturbances. This situation applies to practically all parts of the country where any considerable number of colored people live."
This is another evidence of the fact that many people are thinking along the same lines, in utilizing race funds to further improvement of conditions.
Discussing the proper use of money in cooperative enterprises, the Birmingham Reporter said
An industry for canning water could never be profitable, conserving and impounding it however increases its potential value but must be let loose with a directed aim before the power can be realized.
Money is no hard different its service is in its circulation it will keep without canning its power in the ample direction of its expenditure and its value increases when its circulation gives a larger credit and standing to the man who has the ability to conserve it and circulate it in the same transaction.
With three or four million dollars of Negro money reported to be canned in Birmingham banks (we say canned) because it is not conserved and circulated in channels that give credit and standing to Negro enterprises, it must be evident that cooperative thought and organized action, on any appreciable large scale, has not yet produced the character of manhood that makes prosperity count in the life of the race.
Race progress in Birmingham has centered around the individual efforts and influence of a few men who have succeeded in spite of their apathy toward cooperation. The cooperation habit has not been cultivated beyond the secret order stage of existence and secret order and local social cleavage have no commercial value beyond the immediate membership.
The necessity for advancing beyond the second stage in operation is the lesson set to be mastered. This and the confidence needed to empower the capital among commercial are necessary steps to commemor progress.
The Western Outlet at San Francisco recently tackled a county-wide problem in the following set.
In communities around the bay are several large establishment that employ large patrons from outside but put them on a poster of our services are compliment and when the application is made the management seem to think it is a job an import service. This state of affairs should be changed but it will not be as we meant it to concentrate our patrons on those items that are willing to at least treat us decently in the way of employment. A population estimated from 10,000 to 20,000 must eat sleep wear clothes, and some buy automobiles. These necessities run into money. Don't you think that an establishment that could attach most of this trade would be willing to make some concessions in the way of giving up jobs and girls employment?
The attempt to make useless and act as an imposing enemy is a start in the right direction.

According to the Houston Times Freeman, the recent census of the bodies, taken by Dr. H K. showed a total church membership in the United States of 46,8817 about 42 per cent. of the population.
The largest Protestant body Methodist, while the Roman Catholic maintain almost an equal rank with the Methodists. Following these two large bodies are the Lapists, the Disciples of Christ, Presbyterians, and the Lutherans in the order named.
Among the colored denominations the National Baptist, with two guanizations, lead with a membership of 3,044,528, followed by the A M I with 698,029; the A M E Z with 490,000, and the C M E with 420,000 members. Dr. Carroll claims that the National Baptist organization suffered in recent years by the near migration of colored families in northern cities.
This loss to the Baptist Churches of the South should be offset by gains made by similar organizations in the North. It emphasizes the need for special efforts on the part of the churches to help the migrants renew their religious affiliations under new conditions
In its report of the closing of the Tennessee Republican State Convention, the Nashville Tennessee printed the following significant paragraph
The Reefer faction gave up the fight when the state committee ried against them Monday afternoon. Many of the leaders, headed by Fred Arn of Chattanooga, left town and did not attend the consenon. Something happened in Shelby county however, and one of the city white leaders, J M. Johnson of Memphis who had been dispossessed by his seat on the state committee and his place given to R R Church Memphis Negro, was serenely sitting on the committee on permanent organization. There was peace in the Tenth congressional district, where else.
That would seem to indicate that the Lilwhite movement received a black eye in Tennessee for the moment. It may signify a sounder policy on the part of Southern Republicans.
The Nashville Globe which still maintains its claims to unique makeup by eschewing editorials filled the space usually devoted to the leader in other journals, by a parody on "If—with apologies to Kipling. The last verse read.
If you believe the principles abiding By Baptists, taught—steet modern methods seek.

When it is said, "I thought" there is in me all of the thoughts and feelings of my human and natural instincts of multifamily, as well as the spiritual instincts of my three relations with God. The first court scene and accountability for human action through thought activity was in the garden of Eden, with our first parents, Adam and Eve. These two people of the human family were created in the image of God full grown, and placed in a special stimulating, dignified and personal self-empowerment. Our Lord God was their Tuteur, Companion and Friend, and he gave their instruction and understanding so that they could meet and overcome every temptation that might arise in their lives. He informed them and illuminated their minds to the fact that they had the power and the will to obey the rules governing their lives and action in relation to the fruit thoughts of the Tree of God and Evil in the garden of Eden, or garden of the soul, and live forever, or disobey, struggle, suffer and die.
History shows that through Satan's instruction and suggestion the passionate curious, vain-glorious and during helpmate to Adam, Eve, challenged the Truth of God's law to Alen, from whom she sprang, and to whom she dipped in the blood of the diabolical and pardock of the forbidden fruit. And the following is the description of what took place in the garden after they had disbelieved God:
This is the first court scene correction and penalty against wrong doers in the world of humanity and because its seat of action is in the state of the universal human mind and the functioning of the wall, the inquiries of God concerning the thoughts and the accountability of those thoughts and relation to His Drone Law, is implanted in the nature of all human beings. Therefore the manner of our conduct and behaviour towards our fellowman, towards the Emmanuel, our Heavenly Father should be made the most important factors for daily observation. When we have become regenerated, as the ego in me, is lighted by the Holy Spirit with the truth and the love of God and these divine qualities and principles the mind and the Emmanuel becomes a reality in the consciousness and introspection, searching analysis and classification of the true value of thoughts and action takes place. A daily those thoughts and such actions are manifested as establishes the truth of the will of our Father God. We have the highest example of the ego and personal "I" being submerged, absolved, assimilated into the Father God and not singularly and personally active in human experience very early in the conscious life of our Lord Jesus Christ the Emmanuel. He said "I must be about my Father's business". This shows that at the age of 12 years He recognized not only His unity with His Holy Father, but that He and a holy business in the world of mankind and that this business in the world of humanity was delegated to Him the Father God.

the charge against Miae Blire

industriallne her students, yere discussed.
When a reporter from The Age called at the church and asked for permission to sit in on the meeting, the chairman and president of the Minister's League, Rev A. C. Garner, asked those assembled if there were any objections. Rev William Lloyd Imes, pastor of St. James Presbyterian Church, objected on the grounds that there was too much sensationalism in the usual newspaper reports. This objection was not sustained, however, when the matter was put to vote and it was decided that since the report of the committee was a matter of public property, it was fitting that the reporter be seated in the conference.
Decried Sensationlist Charge
Several of those favoring an open session deferred the charge of sensationalism, especially as to The Age, expressing the opinion that this paper, in presenting the news report referred to, had been sane and conservative. Rev. John W. Robinson, pastor of the Marks M. F. Church, chairman of the committee investigating the charges gave a resume, of the events leading up to the exposé by The New York feature of Nye by The New Yorker, 22, and subsequent events. He also gave a summary of the meeting called Thursday, May 27. Religious Life." The Sunday school, immediately after this service, held its rehearsal for the Children's Day exercises, which took place at the evening service, Sunday, June 15.

Concord Baptist Church
Fifth chapter of Ephesians, 30th verse "For we are members of his body and of his flesh and of his bones" Subject "The Unity of Christ with His Church"
Rev Adams talked with us from the above text and subject, on Sunday morning. Paul wrote this letter to the church at Ephesus, which was a part of Egypt with all that it stood for in the scale of civilization. Ephesus had all the machinery of the world that it was possible to have that it might break down the church. As far as we have studied we find that it had about everything in the line of amusements that New York has now. We have put it into the chariot race and turned the silhouettes into movies. Ephesus was a little New York. Understanding this we have no right to claim that it is harder to induce people to come to the church now that it was then. Often christianity meant death in the days of Paul. We in New York used to know that Christ is alive.
Paul talked to the talk in the language it the home for he knew they would understand that, just as there is a bond of love and a bond of duty about the home in like manner there are bonds uniting Christ with His church. For instance I may go and shake hands with President Coolidge and say Honorable Pres Coolidge, but at contact draws me no closer to him. His son may go and immediately there is a meeting of the bonds between them that has told us there is what we pray we must say for Father that the bond between us may be tightened or that we may become important in worship with Him.
Christ gave us rest and that He appeared us in we are nephews to His Bod. flesh of His presence of His heart of His heart of His flesh and blood and the temptation. By walking in His way we also understand. Like a sun between the debs and the lily we are debs. Christ has there has been a imitation light since the days in John through the days in John the Baptist Christ has paid that debs and we can never be asked a past again for we have the debs and we can never be debs Jesus the assistant to the as to He.

Many Foreigners Who Do Not Understand Negro Cannot Sympathize With Race
"The problem of the Negro in Brooklyn is particularly difficult," said the Rev. Dr John H Lathrop, pastor of the First Untarian Church. There are so many Europeans in this boro who do not understand the Negro. They are not accustomed to seeing them and cannot sympathize intelligently with their needs. If the Negroes had come to a purely American city they would have had a better reception. We should do whatever we can to relieve this problem, for the races can learn to help each other if they both realize their obligations."
Dr Lathrop was speaking at a combined meeting of the National New York and Brooklyn Urban Leagues held Thursday afternoon, June 3, in the Brooklyn Museum, Eastern Parkway, in interest of the Urban League Drive for $150,000 to fina. activities of the three bodies during the next three years.
Dr S Parkes Cadman, president of the Federal Council of Churches, and pastor of Central Congregational Church, Brooklyn, declared that the problem of amicable relationship belongs to both races.
Speaking of the attitude held by the Federal Council of Churches of Christ in America, Dr Ladman who said that "the council is doing its best to contribute toward the solving of the problems of race relationship." The ministers should not leave this work out of their programs," he said. "We of the clergy should lead the way. We all spring from a common origin. The men of the North are white, those of the South are of a darker shade." L. Hollingsworth Wood, national president of the League, stressed the need for a point effort in the search for the answer to the question of amicable race relations, and Robert J Elagy, executive secretary of the Brooklyn league related phases of the social service work accomplished.
"Race is not the determinant of either the language or the material culture of mankind," and Stewart Culin curator of ethnology at the Brooklyn Museum. "Both the laugage and the culture are either direct inheritances or dase they are acquired by imitation from environment.
"The Negro brings problems just as any other race that comes to our shores, but he also brings contributions," said William H. Baldwin, treasurer of the Brooklyn league. Mr. Baldwin presented at the meeting in the absence of the president, Mrs Thomas L. Leeming

THE
FRANK SCHIEFMAN HONORED AT LAFAYETTE THEATRE'S 1ST ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION
An unusual success story is being told this week in connection with the anniversary celebration of the Lafayette Theatre. Thus theatre is celebrating its first anniversary under the present management and the most successful year in its history.
A little more than a year ago there was talk of turning The Lafayette into a public garage because it had been such a steadily losing proposition as a place of amusement.
At that time the corporation which owned the Harlem Opera House, the Odeon, Roosevelt and Douglas Theatres had recently leased out these houses and were looking around for other theatrical enterprises in which to invest their profits.
Although this corporation has an official name, it is generally known as the Leo Brecher Enterprises, after its president and general manager but next to Mr Brecher, the best known man in the organization is Frank Schiffman, who has the reputation of possessing uncanny judgment and knowledge of theatrical enterprises.
Mr. Schiffman recommended that this corporation purchase the lease on the Latayette Theatre. The corporation accepted the recommendation and this house was taken over by the new leases a year ago. B J Burt, who had been the Latayette manager under Coleman Brothers, was retained as house manager, with Mr. Schiffman directing the policy of the house. The new policy was to combine motion pictures and vaudeville of the highest class, and to offer shows to the public at a maximum price of 50 cents admission. This was a much lower price of admission than the house had been bringing and many people expressed the opinion that he couldn't make the theatre pay at this rate.
Many Improvements Made
For several weeks the theatre w
ments were being made $13000 pipe
fighting system put in; modern ven-
tion picture projection installed,
thoroughly cleaned and repainted.

actors which formerly refused to play
under Mr. Schiffman's regime and alth
shows, he never increased the price
It is reported that Lew Leslie, w
the Alhambra Theatre, in Ma
Schiffman refused to increase
to that theatre.
For several weeks the theatre was dark while the following improvements were being made $13,000 pipe organ installed stage rebuilt and new lighting system put in; modern ventilating system and improved method of motion picture projection installed. At the same time, the house was thoroughly cleaned and repainted.
From its first week under the new management the attendance began to increase. So much did the attendance improve that when the regular fall season opened in September, the house was being sold out at every performance. During the past season the best colored resues produced were presented at this theatre in conjunction with motion pictures. Acts and actors which formerly refused to play this house have been brought here under Mr. Schiffman's regime and although many of them were two dollar shows, he never increased the price of admission he set a year ago.
It is reported that Lew Leslie, who produced Placebids of 1926 at the Alhambra Theatre, in May decided upon this course only after Schiffman refused to increase prices at The Lafayette in the show came to that theatre.

During the anniversary week, theatrical managers and street from Broadway and the biggest motion picture men of the country have visited or sent congratulations to Mr. Schiffman and the staff of The Lafayette. Where it was almost impossible to secure a busier for this theatre a year ago there are no offers being received at the present time—not only to purchase the theatre but flattering offers to place it on one of the large current.
The headquarters of the present owners are the Plaza Theatre, a motion picture house which they operate in one of the most exclusive sections of the city. Both Mr. Brecher and Mr. Schiffman are rated in the millionaire class from the profits they have made in their theatrical enterprises during the past ten or twelve years. In addition to operating the Plaza and The Lafayette they also operate the Olympia at 107th street and Broadway the Boston Road Theatre in the city and several other smaller motion picture houses.
Except for Mr. Schiffman and Mr. Burt the staff of the Lafayette Theatre is colored. This staff includes more of hers than the picture operators two cashiers, four porters, a stage manager and two hands and a large orchestra.

Renaissance To Show The Untamed Lady' With Gloria Swanson In The Title Role
Gloria Swanson in "The Untamed Lady," a frank Tuttle production, will be the feature at the Renaissance Theatre, Thursday and Friday, June 10-11. Taken from the story by Fannie Hurst. "The Untamed Lady" gives Gloria Swanson a role that permits that dashing mass to display her talents wonderfully. The act of taming a girl born in wealth and used to all that money can command forms a variety of real interest, and the screen version is even more interesting.
Paris that wonder city from whence comes all sort of stories is vividly portrayed in Michael Arlen's The Dancer of Paris Starring Conway Tearle and Dorothy Mackail. The picture opens in Florida and the scene changes from the United States to France. Mad love and jealousy) for a charming damnesse forms the nucleus for many interesting and thrilling episodes in this picture which is one that will hold the attention from start to finish.
Plants have been perfected by the management to make this theatre the coolest spot in Harlem when the real warm weather sets in. Thus Renaissance patrons will be enabled to enjoy the pictures at their favourite theatre all summer in comfort.

Special efforts are being exerted to make the Children's Day exercises a pleasing feature next Sunday evening, Mrs. M. V Waters, the pastors wife, is very energetic as assisting the officers and teachers of the Sunday School to arrange the exercises properly The pastor preached a powerful sermon last Sunday, from 9:20lpm and 12th verse "The Righteous shall Flourish Like the Palm Tree; she shall grow like a Cedar in Lebanon" His subject was "The Blessings of the Righteous."

Mt. Vernon, N. Y.
Mt. Vernon, N.Y. —The entertainment given by Prof Tolson on June 3 at Centennial A M. E. Zion Church, was a huge success, and so was Everybody's birthday at Macedonia Baptist Church on the same date
On Sunday June 6, the Men's Bible Class nearly filled the entire church. The Reds had thirty men out, Capt. Bailey is finishing the Blues. The class will assemble next Sunday at the usual hour, (1:30) at the church and take buses for Fleet Street Church, Brooklyn, where the leader will be attending the annual conference. All men are urged to be out on time
The Women's Bible Class meets every Sunday afternoon at 5 p.m. This is another thriving organization set apart by Rev White during these four months he has been pastoring at Centennial
It would be a severe blow to Centennial to not have Rev White return as pastor for another year. As a matter of fact he has only served four months of Rev Riley's unexpired term, and they proved to have been the most pervious four months of the twelve. The church and community have not only requested the return to Pastor L. R White and Presiding Elder Mason Rev White Jr. of Harrisburg and wife are visiting his parent at the parsonage and he will be the preacher in his father's pulpit next Sunday. The Welfare Workers had a grand success at Mrs Henry Lewis in such avenue last Wednesday evening, when they held their parcel post sale. These women deserve serious consideration. The good work in which they are engaged Mrs Murage, the president in a wide awake, is an angel who have the secret to do things.

I have made considerable inquiry among railroad men, but just where the movement first began, I have been unable immediately from any one of them the exact pioneers of it. Whether affiliated with the railroads, or whether its introduction was the some industrial of another class and adapted by them, it is which I am still uninformed as this goes to press. Information, however, is not material to what follows here. The that it is one of the best movements introduced in the last half the protection of employees and employers alike, and for that in general. The Safety First Movement is the idea I have in movement is now being carried on with vigor by all the big cor- the country. They, as well as their employees, have realized care of it, and the benefits to health that have been derived in sensation. Law may have something to do with the zealous which the campaign is carried on by the corporations. But even the only motive behind their activities, their employees and generally are the better off because of these activities.
on its inception goes farther back than this. It is only in the nineteen years that the railroads of the country have taken up the earnest. When this first began they started the campaign by Safety First Departments all over their various territories, placed in charge of this work men who were fitted, both by train, able to carry it on. The phrase, "Safety First," greets the traveller, whether he is in an automobile, or on foot, on every side. With all em- work around railroads the words are synonymous to "Be Care- arous." "Be Alert" to danger. The sign alone has been a case of accidents to both workers and travellers. Another large industrials, the Pullman Company is also giving up to the Safety First Movement. President E. P. Carry is one of it. He thinks so well of it that he has set aside a few employees of the Pullman service, sending in the best epi- month, on the subject of safety, are awarded the sum of the month of May, the Pullman Safety First Department of a district registered an almost perfect record for no accidents, that two porters caused the marring of an otherwise 100 per cent they were slightly injured at Mott Haven Yards during the

Jimmy's ma and 'Buster's ma were having a fight! N. that they were pulling one another's hair. It was more in the nature of a "friendly argument." You know!.
It all began when Jimmy's ma commented that Buster's teeth were in a terrible condition. She said she was greatly surprised that Buster's ma was neglecting them. Whereupon that ascalibated and very much annoyed lady immediately retorted that she knew what she was doing, and yowh it was Buster's murky teeth and so it did master because they would be falling out soon. That's how the argument
Of course, you realize that Buster's ma was all wrong and that Jimmy's was right. The temporary teeth are of great importance and should be given as much care as the permanent teeth. The child's health and growth, to a considerable degree, depend upon the soundness of his temporary teeth. Underneath these temporary teeth permanent ones are slowly developing, and their shape, strength and regularity are strongly influenced by the condition of the temporary teeth.
One tooth in particular should be recorded special care. This is the first permanent molar. You can locate it by counting from the midline of the jaw back until you come to the sixth tooth. This first permanent molar forms the keystone of the arch of the jaw and affects the spacing between the upper and lower jaws. The sixth year molar "erupts" or comes into the mouth between the fifth and the seventh years of age, and for this reason is called the sixth year molar.
ever child should be taken to the dentist (as soon as he has his temporary teeth) at least two or three times year, and the dentist should be permitted to watch the growth and development of the child's teeth. The too early loss or the prolonged retention of other temporary teeth may cause jaw irregularities which, in turn, may lead to disease in the mouth and gums.
The regular monthly meeting of the Howard Reading Club was held at Craiggs on Friday evening. June 4 The subject discussed was the topics Gestation" Dr P M Murray, chairman of the Howard Medical School drive, funded for pledges for the endowment fund Dr Cesterote, Dr Graves Dr Pottinger, Dr Wright and Dr Ross made short speeches and admonished the men to either pay their pledges or to get new subscribers to the fund influenced by these stirring addresses. Secretary then put out their check books and made payments. The doctors, hungry from the lengthy discussions, sat down to a sumptuous reapat, which was prepared by Craigse's culinary artists.

5,000 Years Old India
The recent excavations in Sind, at Mashanjodo, are proved by the historians to be over five thousand years old. This goes to prove how far India was whilized. The writer, who personally went there, saw that there is an area of over 40 square feet covered with over 400 buildings. The ancient time this would have been a part of the palace, either for a bath or a fountain. That there flowed the River Indus and on the bank of that river, big cities with their ancient grandeur flourished. As the river changed its course, which even for the present day is not steady, the population over the embankment decreased and afflicted the countryside, whole town was buried under the sand of the desert.
In any civilized country, the Government would like to keep these old relics in the nearby museum, but here in India we have. A Government whose sole aim is to rob India of its wealth in every possible war. It is the sole intention of the British Government in India that the government should take care of their past glory and civilization. In spite of protections from different parts of India, the Government of India has started to take these ancient relics to Great Britain. Excavation was made at the expense of the Indian tax payers. Indian labor was employed to dig them out. Indian trolley assisted the Government to excavate these older remains, and now, like the robbers of the past, the Government British, coming from a distance of 5,000 miles robs India of its wealth, the most valuable possessions in the open daylight, under the garr of democracy and research.
Indian States and The British Diplomacy
The British Government has certain treaties with almost all the Indian princes and still there are certain ruler in India who are in no way under obligation to the British Government. In the year 1899, there ruled Pratab sing, a ruler in Kashmere, the Northern part of India. The ruler was forced to abdicate his throne and was thrown at the mercy of British barbarous imperialism. This was due to a treachery manoeuvre and Jaitu the British Government succeeded. Fortunately, the late Motali Ghose, officer of this Bazaar Patrika, came to know of this diplomatic move of the government, and he strenuously canvassed the propaganda, and thus protected that state from going into Britain through clutches. Later on, the treaty in this spirit, the present treaty was entangled in England in that notorious case of "Mr. A. in London. People in India have every reason to suspect that the British Government has always some hand in such affairs.
The ruler of Nabha, a small state in the Punjab, was torrently compelled to abdicate his throne, as the ruler wasusted the Akali movement, a Sikh movement, for the reformation of their churches. This was a religious movement and yet the ruler maintained an open face the growth and activity of ary seet and consequently entered into the movement taking side of the Church controllers and fiercely disabled the peaceful and non violent followers of the Sikh reformation, and even today the ruler of Nabha and the persons who took part in the movement are ruthlessly prosecuted for the British government having reconstituted rights of the reformists. Then came this lot the ruler of Indore who was, as alleged connected in the crime of a murder of a Bordee member of the Municipal Corporation. Though the British Governor has no right, by the terms of the treaties, the ruler of this State was deposed his status in sheer despair andIVATE and hits the Sikh indirectly come after the chitches of the British government.
To the above lot there comes another
The State of Patria a cousin of the
ex ruler of Nabha, who was as tar as
them are concerned. Is forced to ad-
cide his throne
The Dark war of Baroda claims
troxy rights over small petty states
in nathwaas place bigger than bai
of United States. To this claim
the British Government is turning dea-
cies
The Nazam of Hyderabad claims Berar from the British Government which they have usurped but the Government does not like to part with the province that has come to its hand accidentally. This is therefore to show the activities of the British Government to surpass power in means, to establish the temper at which they should be success in their attempts should be brief of mysterious funnels.
Curse Of Brittah Imperials
Our Indian Agriculture are growing under the burden of heat, rain and to their misfortune the fama has asked fuel to the fire. People India have hardly ceased to maintain themselves if we leave a little behind population of a few riot well do people. Here I am discussing the poverty of the agriculture. I have seen with my own eyes that several farmers go on hunger for several days in the week and have to leave home to buy seeds with the land and even the money they would make furrows. Yet the Hindu government must have the power to revenue Indian population to the extent of Ruppean lives. There are Inegally the expenses of the life here have been increased in India.
Obstinate Government
in the United States. He is
the president of it.
He is the president of
a political party.
He is the president of
an organization under the Rege
of 1818, but they have arrested: Mr. Abul R. Baran Roy, secretary to a dental college of Calcutta, under the notorious act.
Against Mr. Roy who is an enthusiastic Congress worker, a selfless patriot, and a member of the Bengal Legislative Council, the Government of Bengal had not found a shred of evidence even remotely to suspect him of any unlawful intention or action. The Government charged Mr. Roy "of revolutionary conspiracy to overthrow the overrepublican by violence, smuggling of arms, and compulsion to assassinate Government officials." This was after a month of his detention. While at the time of his unconditional release, Sir Hugh Stephenson told him that "Government had now a different opinion about him."
So it comes to this, that so long as Government do not happen to come to "a different opinion" about "deternese not rotting in jails, refusing to open fire" or "not being a victim of an opinion but to continue in captivity Not only that. So little is the Government ashamed of star-chamber methods that they seize up a muslim (Mr. Rashid), a professional man, under the release that India is now enjoying and Mr Roy. Thus the world outside must like a democratic form of Government
Aviation Expenses
The Engineer-in-Charge of the Karrachi Air Station has given to a press representative in Calcutta some interesting details about the giant scheme which he has an hand. The station is to be built to the order of the Air Ministry of England at an approximate cost of £200,000 (nearly $800,000). One wonders in this gigantic enterprise where the Indian has a chance to come into contact with the engineers to construct this significant air-flight system for the Eastern Air travel route and it will accommodate super air-ships of a cruising speed of 100 miles per hour. But is it not high time that India claimed that her own sons should be trained as air mechanics and pilots instead of having to depend upon skilled labor from abroad, that is from England? Or, is even civil aviation to be a sealed book like the artillery service in the military to the Indian India must pay for all expenses she should have to wait for the foreigners, and especial exploitors of England, make her pay for all their gigantic schemes, which entail a heavy charge on the treasury of India, which has no funds to chothe her own subjects.
Racial Ban On Newspapers
The heading rather sounds bewildering. But in India only a certain class of Indian papers are patronized by the Government. The Indian Nationalist papers are debarred from all schools. Government libraries and government would advertise its own publications in the Indian edition of these papers.

From The New York World
Senator Borah made an eloquent speech at Baltimore in which he committed him self to the theory that the Eighteenth Amendment could only be construed as it is construed in the Volstead act that any serious attempt to modify the Volstead act was a kind of rebellion against the Republic. He thus took the position that all parts of the Constitution are equally sacred and that every word of every attitude in the Constitution is to be interpreted with absolute literalness.
If this is true, then William Borah has spent his life helping nullify and destroy the Constitution of the United States. If he says what he says about the Eighteenth Amendment, then what has he to say about the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Section 2 of the Fourteenth Amendment declares that—
Representatives shall be apportioned among the several States according to their respective numbers, counting the whole number of persons in each State, excluding Indians not taxed. But when the right to vote at any election, is denied to any of the male inhabitants of such State being twenty-one years of age and citizens of the United States, or in any way abridged, except for participation in rebellion or other crimes, the basis of representation they shall be reduced in the proportion which they bear to the whole number of male citizens twenty-one years of age in such State
Article XV. declares that—
The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any other State on account of race, color or previous condition of servitude.
Mr. Borah will not deny that these two amendments to the Constitution have been openly nullified, with the consent of the party to which he belongs and of the Senate of which he is vice president, distinguished member. We ask him, therefore, in all seriousness to tell us whether his argument about the Eighteenth Amendment applies also to the Fourteenth and Fifteenth. If it does not, why does it not, and why is the Eighteenth more important and more vital to self-government than the others?
We predict that Mr. Borah will not say that the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments are to be enforced. We predict that if he did say it he would not reintroduce the Force Bills. And if he did reintroduce the Prohibitionists who clamor for "law enforcement" would not vote for them.
But until Mr Borah comes out for the enforcement of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments as well as the Eighteenth we shall not be in the least disturbed by his high-sounding but fundamentally hollow tirade against the States which do not agree with him.

"OCCASIONALLY I am troubled with spills of constipation," says Mrs. John K. Pence, Broadway, Va. "I always use Theodore's Black-Draught when I feel a spell of this kind coming on, for it saves me a bad headache. My color gets sallow at times. I get real yellow. "I have found Black-Draught to be the finest of a remedy for this. I take Black-Draught and make a tea out of it, and take it, along in small doses for several days. I have never found anything that served me so well.
"Since I have known about Black-Draught, I have not suffered nearly so much with headache, caused from indigestion. If I find my tongue is coated, and I wake up with a bad taste in my mouth, I know I have been eating indiscreetly, and I immediately resort to Black-Draught to straighten me out."

Colored Performers To Affiliate With N. V. A.
About two hundred colored vaudeville actors and actresses responded to a call sent out by Bob Slater to meet Henry Chesterfield, executive secretary of the National Vauderief Association. The meeting was held at 211 West 127th street on June 24 and was for the purpose of discussing the advantage of organizing a colored branch on the N. V. A.
