Both colored and white citizens of Charleston professes to see a deep-laid plot to take away from thrifty Negroes this desirable piece of property, which more widely rebound to the advantage of large, landed interests whose adjourning land would be greatly enhanced by the township's expenditure of thousands of dollars for improvements. The Better Government Party is registering an emphatic protest against the scheme. One of the most enthusiastic meetings of what promises to be a long and bidding campaign was held one evening last week in the First Methodist Bischopal Church, at which the candidates on the Better Government Party ticket discussed at the meeting the national party. Colored Litigants Are Made To Lose Time By Absence of Magistrate With 400 dispossess cases, 16 wage cases and 50 other cases of various kinds on the docket, one of the worst conditions in the history of the Seventh District Municipal Court occurred Tuesday and Thursday, of last week, when a judge failed to appear. A major of the dispossess cases involved colored tenants who had lost 2 days from their work to be present in court. During the summer months court is only held on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Justice Jacob Panken scheduled to sit on these days but he is now in Europe. Court adjudants and the clerks at this court did not know what arrangement Judge Panken had made about having someone serve in his place during his absence but they were under the impression that some arrangements had been At the last minute efforts were made to get a justice for the two days but Chief Justice Friedland who is ill, was sent tobury Park and assumed no one The dispossess and wage actions were postponed from Tuesday until Thursday and were again postponed on Thursday until Tuesday of this week. lawyers and tenants who had been in court for the two days said they were going to appeal to Mayor and the Bar Association to see if something could not be done with this situation. to Fremont. The need of a re-organization of the Municipal Court system of the city is now more urgent than ever. For the past two years Republican legislators have sought to create an additional district so as to relieve the situation, but opposing politicians have defeated their efforts In the last Assembly, a bill was passed by both houses but the Gov error vetoed it. This bill was reproduced by Assemblyman Bratha Grenthi the governor. A similar bill has been introduced by Pope B Billums the year, previous Governor Smith's plan it is said, is to have a presiding justice elected over all Municipal Courts of the city. He would make sure one of our officers features and would he responsible for expensive delays and other annoyances.

Man Falls From Roof To Courtyard 70 Feet Below, Is Uninjured Man Falls From Roof To Courtyard 70 Feet Below, Is Uninjured Charlie Wiley, 28, accidently fell from the roof of the apartment house in which he lived at 2 West 36th early Monday morning, August 1, and landed in the court yard, about 70 feet below. An ambulance was hurriedly ordered by neighbors in the apartment who thought he had been seriously injured internally. When he was examined by Dr McCowan at Harlem Hospital it was found that he was suffering only from lacerations of the right and left arms. The building from which he fell is six stories high and the hospital authorities consider it miraculous that he was not killed. Parked In Street All Night, Lieut. Julian's Car Seized By Police An auto owned by Lieutenant Hubert Julian, the only licensed Negro aviator in the United States, was held by the police of the 16th Precinct, Saturday July 31, and a charge of violation of the traffic laws was lodged against Julian. The car was left standing in the street all night Friday. It bore a sign announcing in large letters a proposed trans-Atlantic flight by Lieutenant Julian. Contributions were asked from the public for the purchase of the aeroplane. The announcement was made that the plane would cost $15,000 and that Tiger Flowers, middleweight champion of the world, had contributed $5,000 of this amount. Other contributions had been received amounting to $2,500. A balance of $1,500 was needed the ward this sum were asked. The police say that Julian cannot make a trans-Atlantic flight alone or with a single aeroplane. They also doubt his assertion that $5,000 toward such a flight has been contributed by Tiger Flowers. They feel that his scheme is impractical and it is unwise for the public to contribute to war with such a venture. For this reason he was warned against collecting funds on the street but no charge was made against him on this score. Lieutenant Iulian is a native of the West Indies but learned to fly in Canada. He began his career as an aviator by pumping from an airplane in a parachute. When he first came to New York about four years ago he used considerate airplane jumping from an airplane in the heart of Harlem for advertising stunt. He landed on the roof of a building 400 street and 8th avenue. Since that time he has tried to raise money or several occasions with which to purchase an acreolane of his own.

APPOMATTON CLUB FOR TICKET IN FIELD The eight between the independent Republican colored voters of the 21st Assembly District and the district organization, led by Robert C. Conklin, became more interested in the part week.

Law Would Prevent Colored From Joining White Insurance Companies Richmond, Va.—The State Supreme Court has upheld the law passed by the last General Assembly which forbade fraternal and insurance companies with white officers from accepting colored citizens into membership. A case testing the law was tried in the Supreme Court recently, and Judge D Lawrence Groner, presiding, ruled that the law is not in conflict with the U S Constitution. The case in question affected an Al exandra company which has white officers but insures colored people. In view of the new law members of the society have asked for a recourse. The judge announced that one would be named. The law in question is one of the many passed by the last General Assembly in the interest of "racial integrity." Its effect is expecting to be far-reaching as there are many large societies and insurance companies which have thousands of Negroes enrolled N.

Woman's Eye Injured By Boy Hurling Stone While walking on Eighth avenue, near 135rd street, Mrs. Mary Savage, of 454 St. Nicholas avenue was seriously injured in the eye. Some boys were playing on the side walk, throwing rocks at each other. Just as Mrs. Savage passed one of the rocks missed its mark and struck her in the eye.

Full District Ticket A full ticket for membership on the Republican County Committee will be placed in the entire district. The present fight on Mr. Conklin's leadership came as a result of a threatening letter he wrote several weeks ago to all colored captains demanding that they pledge their support for his reelection or resign from the district organization. At a subsequent meeting, reported exclusively in The New York Age, Conklin said that he was written meant just what it will be called them to do anything about it. Woman Recovers Purse With $40 When Negro Clerk Finds It On A. & P. Store Counter Athur N. Jones, a colored clerk employed by the Great Atlantic and Pacific Tea Company located at 473 Lenox avenue, was busy Saturday night night, waiting on customers in the store, when he acquired a larger wallet laying on the counter when he opened the wallet, he found that it contained forty dollars in bills He called the manager, N. Syron and showed him the money. The manager returned the money to Mr. Jones, who put it aside and awaited the owner. The same night a woman came rushing in, almost out of breath and said that she had lost her purse, which contained all the money she had. The woman was Mrs. Martha Myles, of 107 West 134th street. Mr. Jones had her to describe the purse, and after being satisfied that she was the right owner, returned the money. She left the store all smiles, as if to say "The honest folks are not all dead" Mr. Syron, the manager of the store, in speaking of the moment to a representative of The New York Age had this to say "It was a matter of pure honesty on the part of Arthur Jones. I had to see the money when it was left on the counter, and knew nothing of it until Mr. Jones called my attention to same. He could have easily put the purse in his pocket without the knowledge of anyone. I am very proud of him." Demand On Woman For $75 Blackmail Leads Williams To Prison Henry Williams of 16 West 190th street is being held in jail on a charge of attempted blackmail. He was arrested Friday on the complaint of Mrs. Corey Spalding of 160 West 142nd street. Mrs. Spalding told the police that Williams entered her apartment and demanded that she pay him $25 for protection. He said that he knew she had stolen goods in her possession and unlawfully paid him the money he would squelch on her. She made some excuse about not having the money at that time but if he would call again later in the day she would pay. When Williams returned he found a police man awaiting him. He was arranged in the Heights Court on Saturday and pleaded not guilty to the charge. He was without counsel and the trial was postponed to allow the attorney appointed by the court to become more familiar with the case. In the meantime, Williams is being held in jail as he is without funds with which to secure bail, the police say. Elks' Official Is Of Opinion That The Present Administration Will Receive A Commendatory Tribute By Reelection Grand Organizer Cites Development of Past Four Years A Reason Why Grand Exalted Ruler Wilson Will Overcome Any Possible Opposition Says Pace Has No Chance When the Grand Lodge of Elks meets in Cleveland this month, J. Finley Wilson and his staff of officers will be reelected without serious opposition as a tribute to the splendid work accomplished during the four years of his administration, according to the opinion of C. C. Valle, grand organizer, of 73 Delevan avenue, Newark, who was in company with Ramon A. Martinez, of San Juan, Porto Rico, president of the Elks Association on that island, and a delegate to the grand lodge. As a basis for this opinion, Mr. Valle declared that more than 200 new lodges have been added under Grand Exalted Ruler Wilson in the past four years, most of them in the territory south of the Mason and Dux on Line, territory which had not been cultivated to any considerable extent prior to that time. These represent some 10,000 members. During the last term, said Mr. Valle, there have been added 100 new lodges, 65 temples, 45 juveniles, 10 past exalted cillers' councils and six state associations. The territory covered in these activities include Mexico, Panama, Honduras, Porto Rico and St. Thomas, Ireland, Spain, and the Porto Rico lodge. The only other candidate of cahence, said Mr. Valle, is Judge W. Ward of Belfast delphin, this latter's chances are not rated very well by those who claim to be informed. In fact, said Mr. Ward, Henry is not to be a most reliable candidate. Elks In Porto Rico Mr Martinez corroborated this statement, and added further that the Porto Rican membership embraces all classes and races. This condition, he said, developed through the fact that the American white Elks, the B P O E. had set up lodges in that jurisdiction but with a limitation as to eligibility for membership which records with regulations and customs in vogue here in the United States. As a consequence the native Porto Rican and whites of continental birth were barred from joining the order. So when the ordered order, the I B P O F of W. invaded the island, the soil was read for planting and brought quickly ripe harvests. This splendid growth said Mr Valle, warren of the island that God had Ruler Wilson and his wahmle administration deserves such an expression of confidence as would he contained in their continuance in office. Bates Would Be Strong As to possible opposition, said Mr Valle, the only man who would be Woman Loses $171 In Pocketbook Game Woman Loses $171 In Pocketbook Game Ernest Baarar of 2449 Seventh avenue was arrested Friday July 30, on complaint of Clara Sayer of 123 West 133rd street Mrs Sayer charges that several months ago Baarar swirled her out of $171. He disappeared at the time and had not been seen by her again until the day of his arrest. She told the police that Baarar had inured her to go to the bank and withdraw her savings on the promise that she would be given a share in the money alleged to be found on Seventh avenue. The money which she withdrew was given to Baarar and he turned the entire contents of the pocketbook over to the woman. When she she opened it on the outside of several pieces of newspapers Wedding Anniversary of Bishop and Mrs. Vernon To Be Elaborate Affair Detroit, Mich.—August 18, will mark the twenty-fifth anniversary of the marriage of Bishop W J Aernon and his wife Mrs Emily Vernon, and the ministers and laymen connected with the 15th episcopal district of the A M F Church together with the Indiana and Illinois conferences are tendering a reception to the couple at the episcopal residence, 348 Josephine avenue, on that evening. The Silver Anniversary of the prelate will be marked by an elaborate program, participated in by distinguished men and women of all ranks in life. strong enough to make the race against Mr. Wilson with any reasonable hope of success is the prestigious grand secretary, George E. Bates of Newark. But it is most improbable, said he, that Mr. Bates would even consider making the race. His interest, said the grand organizer, is the work he has done in retaining, in which position he has accepted for a number of years, proving himself to be a capable and efficient officer and building up a strong following in the order. The only other candidate of chessquence, said Mr. Valle, is Judge Edward W. Hunter of Philadelphia but his chances are not raised yet. Informed. In fact, Mr. Willett Judge Henry is not to be a most desirable factor. Pace Vs Bates Referring to the recent statements attributed to Past Exalted Ruler Harry H Pace, a former grand coercy retary, who is an allowed candidate against Grand Secretary Bates' Mr. Valle expressed the view that Mr. Pace would not develop any considerable strength in the coming grand lodge. With the splendid record of attainment which has been made by Bates, and with his strong personal following in the order, Mr. Valle believes that he is the hardest man in the organization to be defeated. More than 600 lodges will be represented at Cleveland, with some thousand or more delegates from the various branches of the order. The material strength of the order is rated at about $100,000, with about $150,000 in the vocational fund, a total of $115,000. Suggested legislation needed to extend the endowment and advantages to the small lodge which are non without that aid, and the hindling of officers in various positions of responsibility Mr. Valle paid a tribute to Judge Hueston of Garfey, Ind. for the work he has been doing in connection with the vocational fund campaign. Lincoln Nurses To Mark Hospital Anniversary Lincoln Nurses To Mark Hospital Anniversary Graduate nurses from the Lincoln Hospital Training School are laying plans for the celebration of the school's twentieth fifth anniversary. Uncertainties as in the continuance of this program have taken over of the hospital by the Cities of New York and leaving the school to be run under its own board of managers.

That the white "numbers" bankers are making a determined effort to win entire control of the game is seen in the report that a secret meeting was held by this group a few days ago, at which time radical changes in the mode of operation were discussed. One of the decisions alleged to have been arrived at was changing the time of paying off on "hits." The present method is to pay off on the day the play is made, but under the new plan the payments will be deferred the next day, thus enabling the bankers to return from collectors. Instead of returns being made up to 9.50 a.m. the new scheme is to have them made up to 2 a.m. the idea being, it is said, to prevent collectors rom pocketing money for slips which had no winning numbers Haa Stirred Apprehension The secret conference has stirred apprehension among the colored bankers it is said, who believe the white bankers are planning to put something over that will be harmful to interests of colored men. Reports have it that the white men who are allied to be operatin as bankers and who participated in the conference were Moe Crawford, R. E. Sahn Redd, Greenfield and Goldberg. The absence of Levy from the meeting was attributed to the fact that he is said to be in disfavor with his fellow bankers, who are not pleased with his alleged methods of doing business. There are said to be some thirty or more white men and women working as collectors, who make daily house to house trips, and it is charged that some of these men attempt to freeze out the Negro collectors by promising players to enlist in a fight, without ducking the usual ten per cent commission. As a matter of fact, it is charred they do not keep this promise, but always take their "cut" when a hit" is made Dishonest Collectors The bankers are trying also to devise some plan by which they can protect themselves from the dishonest collector who does not turn in all of his takings. Some of the men take a chance on holding back some of the plays and putting the money in their own pocket. In case a winning number is thus withheld the player is the loser finding it impossible to collect. And then sometimes, it is allied, the banker himself, if it hard, will simply welfon on paying off The activities of the "number" men as told in former issues of The Age is noted in a number of the business places in Harlem which are being used as collateral agencies. At certain hours in the morning, the storekeepers so busy writing "numbers" ships and taking in the money that customers who want to make legitimate purchases can get waited on. In a number of instances customers complain that the storekeepers and clerks try to influence patrons into playing the game Stand In With Police The operators seem to have no fear of the police. In fact, it is openly charged that uniformed cops are in For Attention Of U. S. Attorney Emory Buckner The evidence to close these Hooch Joints and Speak-Easies is in your office. Why not close them up?

It is said that those who are in the good graces of the police are furnished a card bearing a certain significant emblem which is used as a passport to non-interference by cops. The operators boast of their influence with the disadvantages of the colored banker who is frequently harassed by Police activity, while the white banker is allowed to work without being bothered. One of the biggest colored bankers in Harlem is said to be quitting the game because of the pressure put on him by those in authority. The poor people of the community are the victims of the operators, the tremendous odds of 600 to one holding out a lure that is irresistible. The fact that plays can be made in any sum, from one penny up, contributes also to the attractiveness of the proposition. Recent changes in clearing House procedure is given as reason for the banker's reported alteration of operating methods, but inquiry by The Age directed to a large banking establishment down town brings out the fact the Clearing House has made no change that will affect the "numbers" business. The Clearing House has simply extended its facilities by receiving deposits from member banks twice a day instead of once, but the regular 10 a.m. report is continued just as it has always Optometric Clinic To Be Opened In Harlem The parents of Harlem will welcome the news of plans for the opening of the Optometric Clinic at the Urban League building. According to a report recently published by the Eye-Sight Conservation Council of America more than sixty per cent of public school children have defective eyes of sufficient character to warrant a corrective. Visual acuity test revealed that twenty-five per cent have manifest defects of eye sight and symptoms of eye strain. This is verified by a study of the U.S. Bureau of Education. On Monday evening of this week Doctors R. J. Foster, V. A. Renwick and I. H. Jenkins, three of Harlem colored optometrists, conferred with James H. Hubert, Executive Secretary of New York Urban League, recording for the conference the conditions. It was developed at this conference that the children of Harlem who suffered from defective eyes are without proper attention. Beginning September 10th, room will be set apart at the Urban League building, equipped with the necessary appliances for conducting a clinic. The services with the Urban League donating space and general supervision. Registration will be open on and after September 11t.

Florida Passenger Train Is Setting For Strange Shooting Jacksonville. His After accepting a drink from a fellow passenger on a Florida East Coast fast train coming, from Miami, to Jacksonville, a man, who was enroute to New Orleans accompanied by his wife, became suspicious of the actions of his chance acquaintance, and before the police closed the door, a solver from Jacksonville met a catchet and wounded three—the stranger another man who had joined him, and an old woman passenger. The fusillage of shots quickly impi- tled the coach occupied by the Nego passengers, among whom were several prominent club women en- troute to the annual meeting of the National Federation of Colored Women's Club which is to meet soon at Oakland, Cal. The colored passengers swarmed into the coach fe- trance, and the coach appressed the train-conductor that something was amiss in the "jim crow" vehicle. At Melbourne, the next stop after the shooting occurred, officers took the angry man into custody, leaving his wife to make the trip to New Orleans by herself. The three wounded persons were also, taken off the train and given medical treatment. How It Happened *Stories of the happening are that after leaving Miami—the couple were joined by the strange man, who was well dressed and appeared to be in a prosperous condition. The trio chatted together awhile, and finally had some drinks, materials for which were supplied by the young man. After this, for some unexplained reason, the husband became suspicious and requested the stranger to leave and not return again to the company of himself and wife. The strange young man was not so prompt in accepting the interdiction, and the husband enforced his manlike by drawing a knife on the stranger. But afterwards, in company with another man, the one who had been barred from companionship with the New Orleans bound couple, paraded up and down the car aisle, passing the couple at intervals, and this 'engaged the husband to such an extent that he reached for his satchel, drew the gun and proceeded to use the two paradises as targets. Both were hit, and a stray bullet found its billet in the body of the aged female traveler Carolina-Pythians Hold Grand Lodge Session Raleigh, N.

Saitch and Miss Ballard Win In Eastern Sectional Tennis Tourney In N. J. Saitch and Miss Ballard Win In Eastern Sectional Tennis Tourney In N. J. Bordentown, N. J. "The first Eastern Section Tennis Championships of the American Tennis Association held in conjunction with the New Jersey Open Championships came to a caesful conclusion Saturday afternoon. The play was contested on the courts of the Industrial School at Bordentown, N. J., starting Monday July 26th. The host were the N. J. T. A. The greatest upset of the week was the defeat of Ted Thompson. National singles champion by John Wilkinson of Washington, D. C., in a gruelling five set match. Wilkinson fought all the way though facing certain defeat in the last set with the score 5 to 1 games against him, took a spurt and won the next five games, then "Ted" won his own service and "Wilkie" put on more steam and won the next two games and the match. Miss Luhf Ballard, the champion, proved her mettle by winning through the Ladies Singles, but credit must be given to the final opponent, Mrs. Elaine Conick of New York, who fought a hard fight. The first set which went to a tie in the opening was paced with a stroke in the opening by the officials of the A T A, used the fittest set of womens singles in the history of the A T A. Eryne Saitch was the winner of the Mens' Singles taking Wilkinson with the greatest case. The Mixed Doubles went to Miss Ballard and Mr Wilkinson who had a tougher battle with Mrs. Conick and Mr. Ponder than the score shows. It was the same old story Ted Thompson and Tally Hofmas as winners in the Mens' Doubles. They took Saitch and F. Johnson with comparative honors. Miss Ballard won honors when teamed with Mrs. Junior in the Ladies' Doubles, and for the third time faced Mrs. Conick as an opponent, who had Mrs. Madison as a partner. This event was a fine match, as in the other Wodmans event, it was the cake, a match with Mrs. Conick's elusive chop, against Miss Ballards skirts and placements. The Junior Singles brought out a youngster from Elizabeth, N. J., named Herman Marrow who for this age one could call a chop stroke artist with a capital elusive and deceptive stroke commonly called Jones of Baltimore, Md. Marrow enjoys the singular distinction of being the only New Jersey player to win any honors. Attention must be called to two of the most promising young women players seen in many a year. They are Miss Anita Giant of Washington, D.C. and Miss Dorothy Taylor of Westfield, N.J., who gave a hard fight for their first tournament play against seasoned and experienced rivals. They have the strokes but need but a little more experience to put them in the front ranks of the Women players of the country. Negro Wheat King In Kansas Succeeds Late Potato King, Groves Negro Wheat King In Kansas Succeeds Late Potato King, Groves Topeka Kan - Memories of Groves, the colored, farmer who became noted as the "Kansas Potato King," are evoked when one reads of what has been accomplished by Tom King another colored farmer, who on his farm near Plains has harvested a crop of 22,000 bushels of wheat from 600 acres the crop being worth in money about $28,000. In the front yard of his home there is a pile of 10,000 bushels of wheat. Just a few years ago Tom King was a day laborer in the city and became disgusted with the advancement he was making. He moved his family to the country, and began farming with nothing but his brawn and a willingness to work. He began as a tenant farmer. Today he has one of the biggest bank accounts in Plains, owns 600 acres of farm land and drives a fine car N. J. Women Voters Hold Quarterly Conference Camden N. J.

As all the politician parties in India are split into several, small groups, Mahatma Gandhi summoned a conference of all leaders at Alqadhena, and has requested all leaders assembled to unite for the common cause of India's freedom. While at this conference he has not forgotten to bring in the point of using Indian made goods, at least by the leaders. He has once more reiterated his doctrine of Swadeshi, Charlita Kumar and Siddharth, and (individually) handpain and handwoven cloth). Most of the leaders have shown their willingness to muster round the standard of the Indian National Congress, provided no restriction is made on their admission. The present provision is that every member should wear Ishdara and spin two thousand yards of cloth. To this provision, the worshippers of the British regime take strong objection, as they consider this to be below their dignity. In fact, there is so much deterioration among this sort of leader that they are keeping one eye on the public platform and the coyness of police terrorism. However, a definite formula has been discovered for a compromise, yet a few of the olden school would act contrary to the decision of the Conference. One More State Under the British Eye It is alleged that the Mir (a ruler) of Khaipur Pur, a small state in Sind, is under great distress, and is financially bankrupt. Consequently, the affairs of the State are to be administered by the British government. This reminds the writer of one incident A few years ago, it was rumored that there is petrol under the earth in some parts of the state government forced the Mir to a state of alienation of the land. A big European company got into the business and it is alleged that the Mir had some share in the huge scheme. The petrol that was discovered vanished, and along with it the State treasury, so much so that the time has now come for the British government to administer the affairs of the state. Heaven knows what is at the bottom of the affair, but one cannot help resenting it. The allegations made against the British interference, otherwise it would be first to refute them. Silence means consent. Jail Birds. A few days back, five Bengalis were released from jails who were charged with some conspiracy against the Government. The term of their long confinement has taken over half of their lives. One finished twenty years, the other fifteen and the rest ten years each. If their crime was considered genuine, why did not the British government try their cases publicly Whether those persons were allowed to engage their legal advisors? Whether the treatment that was inflicted on them was of civilized nature when they were in the jails. They were treated if they were the worst criminals and were confined in the jails and the most insulting treatment was recorded to them. However, they are released at a time when they are to seek their groves. The Socialists, who were charged as revolutionists at Lawmore a few years ago, are now so badly treated within the jails where they are, as the cases were decided against them, that they are much reduced in health Mr Dange editor of the Bombay Socialist Paper, who is one of the prisoners is reduced to ninety pounds He possessed a strong physique. The food given them is absolutely unfit for human consumption. Is not the British Government responsible for the lives of these souls whose only use is to have their saved themselves by Socialists and decided response with the Indian Socialist and Revolutionists who are outside India, and were an eyesore to the British Government? But this is the civilized form of according a cordial welcome to the political prisoners l'll! Russia followed this policy and was ruined. No one knows or cares to know even where the bones of the terrorists of the Czarist regimes are Probably the British Government thinks of following her wartime ally and consequently it has enlisted itself as one of the surviving terrorists of the last war Color Ve.

The worst condition is the worst parts of the Union a group in existence would thus be carried throughout the Union. This racial division is the increased shortsightness of the whites to back the Africans and the Asians as a state of semi-slavery. If the whites persist downhill on the policy of attempting to separate and lock up the overwhelming majority of the rightful Africans and Asians in cattle in the Krags, then let them beware for they are building their wheel sechurchs on the slopes of the rumbling volcano. Agricultural Commission In a recent statement the Parliamentary Secretary of the Oversea India Great Britain suggested that there three million ploughs, half a million pumps, and a half a lakh 100,000 will engineer are to be exported to India from England." This supports a good key to the motive of the British exploiters behind the socialized Royal Commission, which has been long ago announced to investigate into the parental problem of the Indian agriculture. The personnel of the commission are provided with the most omniamente habitable and innocuous employment for the big-wigs, who are yet too greedy to retire to their well-mertened occupants. The utter strangers to Indian questions are jockeyed into the business and provided with a pretense to make a few thousand more at the expense of India. When such things are careful detected from the very start and thorough investigation, anything the possibility of doing away with the substantive promote the true welfare of the agriculture, and agriculturists in India, is useful purpose the Commission would serve! Surely, when such a state of things enures, Government of India can scarcely expect the whole brained co-operation of the people of India and their spokesmen, without which the commission is preordained to be a failure. Financial Manipulation The Government of India transferred to the Secretary of State in London Rupees three crores, through the Indian Paper Currency reserve, which is of a mystifying nature. The financial member, Sir Bassam Blacket, has failed to inform the general public the rate at which the transfer is made. The prevailing market rate of exchange to itself an artificial matter, is in the neighborhood of Rupees 13 and one third to a Pound, so that three crores converted at the rate of exchange would bring to the Secretary of State 2 million Pounds. But the obsolete official and statutory rate, is still Rupees 10 to a Pound, which must for a nominal amount of three crores to the Paper Currency reserve in reality three million Pounds would be transferred to Secretary of State for India. This transfer, at a time when Indian market is suffering from a chronic shortage of liquid capital, detrimental to Indian commerce and industry. The entire manipulation of the Indian currency is of the most scandalous character and a grave blot on the British administration.

Best Value In Manhattan $38.00 ap Inquire Supt.-On Premises While a steady and unconcealed propaganda has been carried on by the Democratic political leaders of the South, to show that the disfranchisement of Negro voters is now a voluntary and accepted fact, this perversion of the situation has not been let go uncontroverted. Such exponents of Negro news and opinion as the Savannah Tribune and the Atlanta Independent have courageously presented the facts, to show that the suppression of the Negro vote has been and is accomplished through force and intimidation practised through registration officials, in defiance of the spirit of the law. The consequences of this suppression of the suffrage in the South give that section an unfair and disproportionate advantage in the election of a President and members of Congress. It is a fraud and injustice that affects the whole country and not only the Negro voters whose right to vote is refused. Republican Senators, following the lead of Senator Borah of Idaho, recognize this practical annullment of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendment as a dangerous precedent, affecting the working of the Eighteenth Amendment. But while they insist on the importance of enforcing the Prohibition Amendment, they complacently acquiesce in the violation of the two others. The propaganda to spread the view that the Negro voter does not desire to exercise the franchise, even if he was permitted to do so, has been furthered by the outgivings of certain political writers who follow the line adopted by the Rev. Sam Small, and reinforced by a symposium of governors of Southern States, a few months ago. The purpose of this propaganda is evidently to hull the conscience of the country to sleep with the belief that the Negro does not value the franchise and is not worthy to exercise it. The only way to offset this propaganda is for Negroes in those sections where their right to vote is recognized and undiplagued, and where their vote is sought by both parties, to exercise it. There is no excuse for the failure of any man or woman of the race in the large cities, like New York and Chicago, to qualify as voters and to cast a ballot for the candidates of their choice. In districts like Harlem, if they pursued this course, they could easily name the candidates for Alderman and Assemblyman in certain districts. The requirements for becoming a voter in this State are easy to meet, and no man or woman who is eligible should fail to register and vote, both in the primaries and on election day. The New York State election this fall will be of unusual importance. The Governor to be elected will wield greater powers than ever before under the new arrangement of the State departments. A United States Senator is to be elected, besides State Senators and Assemblymen. But aside from these considerations, it is important that the members of the race who can qualify as voters, should do so. Their action would refute in the most effective way the insidious propaganda that the Negro as a race is inclined to accept disfranchisement as a voluntary condition. Let us show that the value of the ballot as a means to an end is understood and properly rated. The only way to make the ballot effective is to use it. To do this we must qualify as voters by registration in the districts where we reside. POLICE NEEDS IN HARLEM. The Harlem section is outgrowing the present provisions made for policing that district, and its needs for improvements are becoming more pressing with the increase of population. Under the present administration there has been a perceptible improvement in the morale of the police force and a renewed disposition to cooperate with the law abiding part of the community in stamping out vice and protecting life and property. To increase the efficiency of the force in this direction certain facilities should be amplified and new ones added. With the increased number of patrolmen at the disposition of the Commissioner, the number assigned to Harlem should be larger. More traffic officers are needed at congested thoroughfares, for the direction of traffic and the protection of foot passengers at the ermings. A new station house is needed for the Titicentis District; as the buildings now need for that purpose are deficient in many respects for the purposes intended. The appointments of the station are also inadequate for the calls made upon them and a more modern equipment should be supplied. We understand that there are many demands upon the funds appropriated to supply the needs of the city in the way of policing, but the volume of population and the increase of traffic and congestion in this territory warrant careful consideration of the need for improvements indicated. TO STUDY IUVENILE DELINQUENCY. The need for proper provision for cases of this character, has already been set forth and efforts made to supply it in the way of proper human guidance and assistance for those girls who by reason of improper home surroundings or waywardness require the restraining influence to be provided by a friendly and judicious court. Commitment to penal institutions, as a rule, does not help in such cases. The city does not provide the right sort of correctional institutions to supply the lack of proper guardianship and companionship. Sych institutions as the Katy Ferguson Home and the John R. Hegeman Home deal with cases of delinquent girls who have not reached the stage of being taken into court. But there is need of another institution to which those girls who have taken the first step toward a life of prostitution, should be committed and given the proper environment to reclaim them from such a career. This situation has already been studied by women of experience in dealing with such problems. Magistrate Jean Norris, Dr. Katherine B. Davis, Mrs. Willard Parker and Mrs. Haley Fiske, have taken a lively interest in the matter. They advocate the establishment of the right kind of institution to be supported by the colored people themselves, with the aid and cooperation of those philanthropically inclined. If more surveys will aid to bring this problem of dealing with the delinquent girl more clearly to the interest of the people, well and good. But the matter should not stop with surveys. Prompt and effective action is needed in establishing the right kind of home and securing experienced workers to furnish the proper environment for the rehabilitation of the delinquents. Sane human guidance by the right sort of social workers is what is needed. Such a home should be able to function three hundred and sixty-five days in the year, as every day brings its own problem of delinquency. Other practical measures that promise to avert or prevent the spread of juvenile delinquency among girls of tender years are the work of such organizations as the Big Sisters and the use of the schools after study hours of recreational centers, under proper supervision. This would provide a place for the little girl who carries a key tied about her neck in order to gain admittance to her home pending the return of her parents who are detained at work. The city might well cooperate in lending the schoolhouses for this purpose, in order to decrease the measure of juvenile delinquency. The study of juvenile delinquency will lead to no effective result unless it is coupled with a plan of prompt and effective action to correct it by practical methods of human contact and helpful guidance. THE PRACTICE OF DEMOCRACY. A striking illustration of the meaning and practice of pure democracy was afforded in the annual outing given by the Downtown Tammany Club last week. This club is a political organization, which holds sway over the districts formerly presided over by the late Tom Foley, who at one time was the Sheriff of New York County. His successor as leader, a former protege, Peter J. Hamill has continued the custom of holding this annual outing of the voters of the district, including the mothers and children, to Coney Island, to enjoy the delights of a popular amusement resort One hundred and sixty busses brought the children and their mothers to spend a day by the seaside, away from the heat and humidity of the tenements. Here they indulged in all the sports and games provided for them, while boxes containing lunches were distributed and ice cream and milk served in great quantities. The scoffer may observe that this is only an oldtime political device to catch the votes by distributing largees from the spoils of victory. But it carried a larger significance in the cosmocarried a larger significance in the cosmoposition of the outing was indicated in the following, an example of these facts can be found in the New York World. It read: "Five of these the human beings. Negro children, two of these were blinded with white China. There were all the nationalities, but the prisoners, themselves did not know they were nonnative. They knew only they were where a good distance remained, and they pursued that good time after the sentence of the unnatural child. English quarter language spoken, except when exigency called for the more expressive 'Tent Sole' and there were exigencies—more than when boys play handball in the street while trucks and municipal goods." This kind of treatment does more for the eradication of racial prejudice and the cultivation of true democracy than mere verbal outpouring of altruistic sentiment. It acts as a real object lesson to the openness of humanity and the fact that differences of race and color are minor things compared to the university of citizenship and neighborly feeling. Children thus brought into contact at an impressive stage in equal participation in sports and pleasures are apt to imbibe a friendly feeling for one another which will carry them far in amicable relations in later life. Such an absence of stress on the difference of nationalities is the best way of averting racial friction and fostering friendly relations. There is a lesson in this incident of practical democracy which might be studied to advantage by the district leaders on the Republican side in New York and other great cities. There was only one Republican district leader who realized the secret of Tammany success among the common people of New York. He was Captain F. Norton Goddard, who built up an organization in his district that worked along the same lines of taking an active interest in the things that affected the welfare of the masses. He increased the number of Republican voters in his district, but his sudden death put an end to his attempt to populate the party. A few other leaders have taken tentative steps in this direction, but most of them are hidebound in the belief that the party should be kept within narrow limits and the Negro voters relegated to a separate corner. What the party needs are leaders with a better understanding of true democracy and free from bias on account of race or color. This leaf from the Book of Tammany might be studied to advantage. THE ELKS AND A NEW PROGRAM. This month at Cleveland the Improved Benvolent and Protective Order of Elks of the World meets in annual session. Chief interest centers in the election of officers, which promises to be warmly contested. The Age will concede that the aspirants, for the coveted positions are men of ability. But we are not so much concerned about personalities as to the incoming administration mapping out a constructive program. It is generally understood that the men of the race affiliated with the Elks are good spenders. Their reputation for good-fellowship is well-known. No other fraternal organization among Negroes has so large a percentage who spend their money freely. At the Cleveland convention reports will be read to the delegates telling of how the numerical strength of the organization has increased within twelve months. Statistics will be enthusiastically submitted giving the increased revenue from dues, and of the amount of money in the treasury. The submitting of such interesting and desired information will be in order as provided by the Constitution. But what is the parent body doing with its accumulated finances? Is it applying any of it to help improve the economic status of the Negro in America? Has one penny been used toward making us a race of producers rather than a race of consumers? Has one dollar been appropriated to any movement having for its object the providing of jobs for our young men and women when they come out of school? The Improved Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks of the World has a large and virile membership in Greater New York. Many belonging to the local lodges are classed among the "best dressers." But are they supporting our gents' furnishing stores, or are they actively interested in the operation of any such business places? Where is all their money spent for clothing going? Taking care of the sick and burying the dead are laudable aims. Yet the time has come when it also behooves our secret societies to take an interest in the welfare of the healthy and the living. They should seriously consider playing an active part in helping put the race on a sound economic basis. They have the numbers and they have the money. After what promises to be a spirited election at Cleveland, and the dove of peace once more perches on the broad shoulders of Elkdom, The Age is hopeful that the new administration will seriously consider the suggestion herewith made REAL CAUSE OF RACE RIOT. Last week the daily papers published an account of a race riot in Harlem between Porto Ricans and others of Spanish descent on one side, and Jews on the other, which was not quudled until police reserves from If that were true in America, a Negro could not get a job as Pullman porter. The "Journal" acknowledges that a porter starts in on $72.50 a month and until last February he started lower than that, before he threatened to unisex; and the "Journal" acknowledges that it still takes 15 years for a porter's wages to go to $104 a month, and yet has the nerve to tell us that this is the "best" pay in the United States. Then the "Journal" falls back on time, and gives all the more than $2,000. Pullman/legger has yet each gave the porter 25 cents—and preto change! The Pullman porters had about $7,000,000 handed to them besides what the company paid them, adding the pittance of $35 to the monthly wage: This "formed" also discovers that receiving tips is not a degradation but only a nice little "recognition of friendliness, closely personal service" In reply to that, if we said what we are supposed to be, "Well, I'll be damned!" Whoever heard of an American tip being a token of so respectful a relation as friendship? "Journal" also discovers that about one third of the porters own their homes, and about one out of ten has an auto—"not all Fords at that," but, notice, the "Journal" does not say just how many are Fords. If one were not a Ford, they would be "not all Fords at that." Also the "Journal" fails to tell how many porters did not get their homes out of Pelham wages how many had homes before they heard of Pelham, how many inherited homes from relatives, how many got homes through their wires or the work of their wires, how many engage in other business besides "pottering" to make a living and lately, how much money there is on these homes. And the "Journal" avoids comparison of these wages, wages and automobiles with the wages and homes and automobiles with the wages, homes, and autos of other railroad employees, such as the conditions and逗趣s. In short, Wall Street, which is the same crowd as the Pullman Company crowd, paints a good picture for the company, by half truths and shallow statistics. But Wall Street and food many people, and especially not the Pullman porters.

Four years ago colored men who were as poor as Job's turkey are today millionaires, riding around in Lincoln's, Marmons and other high priced cars with valuable property also listed to their credit, and mind you, this is not an educational attainment but merely the results of lack pure and simple Such rapid success has not passed by unnoticed, Jealousy has crept into the fold and today, Jews, Italians and what notes are galloping to Harlem getting into the "number game. They all feel that this is entirely too good for "Negroes" and they are determined with the help of the law to make sure that the money comes into their coffers. There is hardly a cigar-stain, grocery store, tailor shop drug store or any other business operated by men, other than colored The incident reminds us that everybody is fighting to gain a business foothold in the community but the Negro. He seems to be either fast asleep or indifferent. He gives the impression he is satisfied to spend. If you don't think so walk up Lentor, Seventh and Eighli Avenue between 125th and 145th Streets. EDITORS TIMES OF OTHER EDITORS He also made some careful studies of the same subject for Opportunity. If he will restrain his tendency toward smartness and Monkstroque friction, his new column may take on the value predicted. The Boston Chronicle, takes exception to the failure of the municipal administration to recognize its colored supporters by appointments to office. It said: So many men and women of the Curley administration are still holding ADERS' FORUM where numbers are not solicited and taken with the assurance that no commission will be deducted and that you will get the full amount of your hit. Even some of the Chinese landries greet their customers with "I take number, leeb 'em here." Some of these cigar stands have full police protection. That is, a cop is standing out in front of the place cognizant of what is going on and it is a customary sight any morning to watch hundreds of colored people ducking in and out of these places, putting in their plays on the way to work, after having had all night to dream what's coming out for that day. It's a known fact that colored people will still be the ones to play this game after the colored banker and runner has been bullied and broken up and the number game safely tucked away on ice for the white banker. This form of gambling will then be well organized and the police department can make their daily rounds to the business places game at. They are now deprived of because of their inability to locate just where the runners and bankers meet and count the money Individually, I am diabolically opposed to gambling in any form but what is "zapce for the goose is sauce for the hamster" and the real plan is not to "break up number playing altogether but to take it away from the Negro bankers and let the white bankers applaud and be pleased with what he did, and it is really sad when quite a few of our prominent preachers and other thinking men are allowing the authorities to "bull the wool" over their eyes in this matter I believe in giving the devil his duties. Majority of the Negro bankers have purchased valuable property at an enormous price in the very best sections of this city and today colored tenants are living in these apartments and occupying premises that they never would have gotten into had the property continued to have been owned by whites. As a whole Negroes have prospered rather than lost in this number business yet I say, break it if possible, but don't attempt to force aaw of that Harvey-Wills Dempsey-Tunney face on the people having them believe one thing when everything is cut and def for just the opposite. Don't make war with the colored and at the same time establish friendly relations with the whites. This is something to think about, as little as you think of it, and in the case of the police breaking up this number came I say, "Beware Greeks though they bring you off." WOODIE WILSON HEALTH IS HERE By DR M. ALICE ASSERSON the New York Tuberculosis and Health Association Don't Let It Be Your Child Have you ever boarded a subway train and noticed, in a short time, that your eyes were attracted to some unfortunate individual who was deformed in one way or another. You did not want to look, but you did. You pitched the person who had to go through life with any sort of deformity. Smallpox deforms people in this way that loathsome disease frequently leaves those who have suffered from it hideous pock-marked faces. You would hate to have this happen to your self or your children. You would hate to have you in life through life marked in a way so that people can sidelong, pitting glances on them. Have you taken the only steps that can be taken to prevent this. Have you had your children vaccinated. Smallpox can be prevented by vaccination, and by vaccination only. Studies of the effect of epidemics in various countries where the people have been vaccinated and those where they have not been vaccinated have proved time and time again that vaccination, and vaccination alone, is the sure cure preventive against this arouse. To secure a high degree of protection, should always be performed within the year of life, agam in the early school year, and in the early adult life wherever that is the epidemic. The protection conferred by one successful vaccination generally lasts for five to seven years. sure that the most charitable view of the planning must that more reduce their favorship in the determining factor. Certainly under the non-partisan aspect of the Municipal election, party label could not be expected to play a large part in causing charges. We are at a loss, however, to account for the removal of Judith Jones as Editor of the City Record. Mr. Jones is an efficient newspaper man with good training and satisfactorius experience. According to the success of the Boston Herald. The team has been great improvement recently, with evidence of an earnest effort to make it (The City Record) what it should be. True Mr. Jones is of Democratic affiliation, an appointee of the Curry administration. But so are many others of the present office holders under Mayor Nichols. In view of the strong support given Mr. Nichols bycold voters and his failure to recognize the group's loyalty through appointments to administrative jobs, they might have been able to fill the two senate representation we had. This removal is unreasonable when the efficiency of the man removed is considered. The Nichols administration was obdently lacking in political sagacity, is stigging out the one capable officeholder for removal. It should find place for another of equal merit. The editor of the Philadelphia Christian Recorder in discussing deeds in church property, issued the following caution to pastors and trustees. Many pastors and boards of trusts think it is enough for a local lawyer to draw the deeds. Our own experience has been that many lawyers do not draw deeds to our church property correctly, and much inconvenience and often litigation has resulted. If the pastors wait till the deeds are recorded and bring them to conference they may already be ready to make deeds, but if they in their deeds beforehand all mistakes will be avoided. And while we are on this question, we might state that we believe that the time has come when we should give more attention to the matter of the purchase of property and the improvements of the same. We have not only lost many properties because of imperfect titles, but we have made many buildings by ill-paying purchases and building projects. Many pastors have sold or exchanged good property and not gotten value received and thrown themselves into years of hardship and endearment. Experience has shown the need of the canion enjoined by Editor Wright, who is chairman of the conference committee on deeds and knows whereof he speaks. The Savannah Morning News, a daily, endorses a proposition to provide a hotel for colored people in that city in the following terms. Right now it is a fact that the earning power of Negroes in the South is greater than it ever has been in normal times. And that is a fact which leads to the suggestion that Savannah should provide a modern Negro hotel. It seems to the Morning News that it would be a good investment and it suggests that leaders among the Negro canvas the situation and see if this improvement can be made. It would be in keeping with Savannah's reputation for excellent relations between the races if it should become known that they are to be built here and intended for Negro colonies which would assure visiting colony people who are able to pay for and who desire good accommodations, of just what they want. Apparently there is opportunity here for both a good investment along the line of race relations. This suggestion is indicative of the amenable relations now existing between the two races in Savannah. The Washington Tribune column as a right move the reorganization of the Negro battalion of the District of Columbia National Guard and the news that the development of this unit is to be vigorously puthed. It said. This is as it should be. With R. O. T. C., work at Howard University, and the functioning of a school battalion of the National Guard in the community, the development of Negro officers for a National Army is given a decided impetus. A battalion means about a series of commissioned officers, and appropriation by hundred, while a unit training supplemented by the very well-equipped public school education is able in the District, should make them very capable officers in an emergency. Such an organization means to the community. It means to the race at large, for it cannot be given our group the assurance that we are still regarded as a part of the ownership of the country that we are often failed. The necessity of proper training for the race, both as officer and privates, was clearly shown in the war. The permanence of peace is not sufficiently assured to expense with the means of national defense. The force of public opinion and the pleas of colored and white newspapers brought about a review of the success of Susie Boyd, who was arrested by a Richmond judge to be beaten for forgery. Her term was extended to years. The Richmond Judge was a white paper in discussing the case and All the judges and all the officers of Virginia should remember to put on trial in its dealing with two classes of people those who have great influence and those who have no power as is much a disgrace to minor law hardness to the weak as it is to the subservient to the strong. The line ought to end at the bar. All the judges and all the officers. This is sound doctrine and should be observed in the administration of justice in order to retain the respect of lawabiding citizens. The amount involved in the case was only $183, so the reduced sentence seems a severe penalty for a first offence. The meeting of the Commissioners of the Eastern Colored League in Philadelphia Wednesday, July 28, failed to bring the harmony expected. Instead of harmony a breach has been widening among the League Commissioners, which, according to Nat Strong, may result in abandonment of the whole organization next season. Mr. Strong did not attend the meeting which according to others on the inside, was for the purpose of bringing Mr. Strong and Mr. Keenan, owner of the Lincoln Giants, together. The stormy petrel in the League, Mr. Strong, is owner of the Brooklyn Royal Giants, and books all games for the Cuban Stars. These two teams have played fewer League games than any other teams, and the other Commissioners were making an effort to have the Cubans and Royals play each other and play the Lincoln Giants. According to Mr. Strong, the reason he isn't playing the Lincoln Giants this season is that Mr. Keenan announced at the beginning of the season that he would not play the Royals this year because of a previous misunderstanding. He took the Lincoln owner at his word and went ahead and booked the Royals for several tours through New York State for the end of the season. Alexander Pompez, owner of the Cubans, might arrange a series with the Lincolnus, Mr. Strong says, but he would be foolish if he did so. He intimated that he had advised Mr. Pompez not to have anything to do with the Lincolnus. At the same time, Mr Strong took occasion to criticize the management of the League. He stated that the schedule sent out to the press before the season opened was "phoney," and that the Inter-State League, which had three white and three colored clubs, had taken the best dates for games—dates that should have gone at the Eastern Colored League. This Inter-State League has recently gone to the wall. Another fault with the colored league, Mr. Strong said, was poor umpiring. This was especially true at the Hilldale Park, he continued. Many of the men who umpire games in this organization had never played ball themselves and were responsible for many of the fights during the games. It is almost impossible, he averred, for a visiting team to win at Hilldale Park, and the same condition prevails with the Bacharachs in Atlantic City. The only solution for this problem was the selection of colored ex-ball players as umpires. They should be put on a salary and be allowed to rotate from team to team else there would always be poor umpiring, Mr. Strong concluded. Poor attendance at the games in and around Philadelphia and the fighting among the Commissioners were given as reasons why the League would not continue in existence next year. The big increase of public interest in the league ball and the increase in the number of colored teams playing in and around Philadelphia are said to be reasons for the falling off of attendance at the Colored games. Whetner the League continued or not, Mr. Strong said, the Royals and Cubans would continue as big attractions in semi-professional baseball series. Both these teams are experiencing their best season. The Cubans were leading the Eastern colored League and the Royals have won 77 games and lost only 19 this year. They boast of having in Wagner, the best shortstop in colored baseball, and the best pitching staff of any colored team. To Drop The Royal Giants The other Commissioners of the have been appraised of Mr. Strong's a eration, and according to a statement s reported the League meeting, that on Strong's team, the Royal Giants, next club organization next year and plans home grounds so that all teams will man and thus increase interest.

Thompson, who reported the League meeting, that organization has decided to drop Mr. Strong's team, the Royal Giants, next season. The League will be a six club organization next year and plans are being made to give each club a home grounds so that all teams will make a circuit of the various other clubs and thus increase interest. The Commissioners will also seriously consider playing a 100-game schedule. Alexander Pomper's action in aggreeting to play the Lincoln Giants, against the opposition of Nat Strong, is said to have spiked rumors that the League would be abandoned. With plans going ahead for next reason's work it looks as though Mr. Strong expressed a wish-instead of an opinion when he told The Age representative that the League would not be able to survive another season. LINCOLN GIANTS TAKE DOUBLE HEADER AND GO BACK INTO THIRD PLACE A double victory for the Lincoln Giants on Sunday put them back in the race for the pennant in the Eastern Colored League. They are now in second place and within three games of the first team. Their opponent was the Bacharach Giants, who were shut out by a score of 4-0 in the first contest and beaten 7-5 in the other. Both games were pitcher's battles, with Henderson and Chambers the opposing moundmen for the first, and Otter and Gisentaner opposing each other in the contest. The Bacharach pitcher had a slight advantage in the number of hits allowed but the local pitcher received better support. In the first game Henderson allowed but four scattered hits. Two of the were by Chale Mason, late of the Newark Stars, Mason scored Young from first base with a long single in the second inning and hit a three bagger in the fifth. Chambers allowed the Batharachs seven hits but they were kept on well scattered that only one batter reached third base. The Batharachs got off at a good start in the second game and lead the Lancolns until the sixth inning. In this inning fitter got somewhat wild and walked two men, then Tom Finley landed a homer, which tied the score. The Lancolns staged another batting call in the eighth inning. The second game was somewhat marred by arguments with the umpire Marcel became abusive in the seventh inning and Umpire Hanson ordered him out of the game and off the field. When he did not leave promptly the umpire declared the game forfeited Jim Keean as a commissioner of the League over-rated this decision and ordered the game completed. Umpire Hanson refused to officiate for the last two innings and John F. Condon act- Eastern Colored League seemed to attitude of indifference and non-coop-ent out by Lloyd P.

College (Telegram to The New York Age) Tallahassee, Fla.—Jazz' Franz Byrd star athlete at Lincoln University from 1921 to 1925 and recently a law student at Columbia University, has been elected football coach of Florida A. and M. College. Byrd will have charge of all athletics and is expected to report about September 1. Byrd is the son of the Rev. William A. Byrd of Jersey City, N. J., and is considered one of the best all-around athlete in the country today Eastern Colored League Standings Cuban Stars Lincoln Giants Hilldale Bacharach Giants Harrisburg Giants Baltimore Black Sox Brooklyn Royal Giants Including game played Philadelphia, Pa.—Hitting the ball to all points of the Darby enclosure, the Hildale's Club chased two Harrisburg pitchers, treated a third in a rough manner, and trounced Oscar Charlton and his Harrisburg contingent by the count of 12 to 5. The victory for Hildale gave Ed. Bolden's team three games out of the four game series. The day proved to be a gala one for the Hildale club swings and they pecked away at the offerings of the trio of Harrisburg pitchers for 18 hits that totaled 23 bases. Jake Stevens the Hildale short stop led his mates with four tactics. Two of which were the result of beating out buns every one in the Hildale line-up registered one or more hits, with the exception of Judy Johnson. Brag Mackey and Frank Warfield carried the brunt of the burden when it came to driving in runs. Mackey sent over a quartet of runs with his double and single, while Captain Warfield drove in a similar number with his two singles and a double the most of the Hildale scoring was confined to innings when two men had been retired. In the hectic fifth inning the home team scored four runs after two were out and again in the seventh the Daisies counted twice with two down. Phil Cockrell went the entire route for the home team and the visitors trotted out a two of burles. Although Cockrell was hit for nine safeties, his team mates made the victory secure with a dozen and a half clean hits "Nick" Carter started of the hill for Colonel Strother Club. but was snatched out in the fourth inning after Phil Cockrell opened that session with a triple to center. Ping Gardner was rushed to the mound and checked the hats in that round but ran into trouble in the fifth and after the home team had rolled up five scores Gardner was chased and Henry Collesse strolled into the danger zone. Clint Thomas pulled the feature play of the game when he came vacing in and made a diving one hand grab of Peter low liner in the eighth inning. The catch brought rounds of applause from the stands.

With FRANK RADCLIFF TIM MOORE RECTOR & COOPER EDYTHE SPENCER A CHORUS OF RAVISHING BEAUTIES And JOE JORDON'S FAMOUS BAND For The First Time On Any Stage The New York State Athletic Commission lived up to its reputation for suddenly changing its mind when the dispute over the management of George Godfrey, heavyweight contender, came before that body. Tuesday Several weeks ago, Dr. Frank C. Caffey, who discovered Godfrey, filed a copy of a contract with the Commission and was recognized by that body as George's legal manager. James Dougherty, who has been setting as Godfrey's manager, came east last week from California to fight this ruling. The matter was taken up at the weekly meeting of the Commission and after listening to a statement by Dougherty's lawyer, the Commission reversed its self and declared Dougherty the manager. The basis to this new ruling is that the person whose application for a license as manager of a fighter is first received, as recognized as that fighter's manager. It was shown that while Dr. Caffey's contract was drawn sometime before that of Dougherty, the latter filed his first and made application for a license as Godfrey's manager. The question of the legality of the Caffey contract was not taken up at the meeting. A civil suit will be instituted by Dr. Caffey to settle this matter. Charles Fred White, the colored member of the Pennsylvania State Athletic Commission, has sent a telegram to Chairman James A. Farley of the New York State Athletic Commission, urging the New York Commissioner to stand firm in his demand for a Wills-Dempsey bout and warning him of a "fake Dempsey-Tunney" contest. Mr. White's telegram was as follows Hon, James A. Farley, Chairman N. Y. Boxing Commission, New York, N. Y. "Be careful of fake Dempsey-Tunney fight. I'm told by good authority Jack Dempsey said recently in private conversation that Tunney is not match for him and Harry Wills is the only man in the world who can give him a fistfle, Jack-Kearns told one of his Deputies that Dempsey feats Wills, and that" why Dempsey broke with Kearns after signing of Dempsey-Wills contract. I feel duty to protect public." "Silken Shackles" At The Lincoln Theatre "Silken Shackles" At The Lincoln Theatre A new cure for a firtitious wife is offered in "Silken Shackles" the Warner picture starring Irene Rich, which opened yesterday at the Lincoln Theatre. Miss Rich looks even lovelier than in "Lady Windermere's Fan", her first venture into the strene field and a sparkling successful one. She plays Denise Lake, who accompanies her husband adapsh on a diplomatic mission, and finds the Budapest moonromantic and infosleating. Huntly Gordon plays the husband, whose love for his beautiful and impulsive wife, makes it impossible for him to attend to business. Victor Varconi is seen as the Hungarian Volmist who so captivates the wife that she is ready to leave her husband for him. All three give perfect portrayals and have an excellent supporting cast which includes Robert Schable, Bert Marbug, Evelyn Selbie and Kala Paasha. Walter Monaco and Philip Klem wrote "Silken Shackles" for Miss Rich and Mr Monaco directed it so defiant and subtle that it falls into the class of screen productions which are worth the attention of the discriminating picturegoer. Lon Chaney In "The Road To Mandalay" at The Roosevelt and Douglass "Putting out an eye" was Lon Chaney's daily task during the filming of "The Road to Mundalay," his latest Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer production which comes to the Roosevelt aml Dhugheh Thitreats Saturday, Sunday and Monday, August 7, 8, and 9. Every day the actor applied a chemical to his eyeball which created a white film over it, giving the baurer effect of a man with one eye destroyed by a knife slash. This growswe make up one of the greatest effects he has ever obtained in the way of illusion. Lois Moran, Owen Moore, Henry B Watthall, Kamyana Sojin and other notables of the screen appear in the vivid new Oriental mystery drama which Tod Browning creator of the "Tahpolly Three," directed. New Musical Revue With Edith Spencer To Open At Lafayette Monday "Fixin' To Leave," a new musical revue, with Eddy the Spencer, prima donna of "Shuffle Along" and "Runin' Wild," will open a limited engagement at the Layfayette Theatre, Monday, August 9.

THEATRICAL JOTTINGS By BOB SLATER Howard, Brown and Smith's 7-11 Co., opened Monday at the Lincoln Theatre, New York City. Long before the show started - the S. R. O. sign was on display. Judging by the huge ovation and applause received the show was a smashing success. The pop and snappy dancing of the chorus was well put over by a charming bevy of 24 girls, the largest chorus ever presented upon that stage in the history of the Lincoln Theatre. Moss and Frye, after finishing this weeks engagement at Keith's Boston Theatre, Boston, Mass., will have a short vacation before opening over the time again.

This is an adaptation from the celebrated comedy strips by William Conselman and Charles Plumb and is easily one of the most interesting and entertaining films ever seen on the screen. Cuban Stars and Lincoln Giants To Begin Series Aug. 15 Despite the opposition of Nat Strong, a serious of baseball games have been arranged between the Cuban Stars, leaders of the Eastern Colored League, and the Lincoln Giants, one of their most formidable rivals. The first of this series will be a double header at the Lincoln's home grounds, Protectory Oval, in the Bronx, Sunday, August 15. The Next two games of the series will probably be played in Atlantic City. The series will be concluded with games in New York in September. Although the Cuban Stars are owned by Alexander Pompeg, Mr. Strong books most of their games. Because of personal rivalry, between himself and another commissioner, he advised Mr. Pompeg not to play the Lincoln and refused to permit his own team, the Royal Giants, to play them. For the good of the League, Mr. Pompeg had decided to play the series against Mr. Strong's advice. Both the Cubans and the Lincoln are quite popular in Harlem and record crowds are expected to witness the series. Wills-Dempsey-Tunney If Jack Dempsey should be permitted to fight Tunney in New York State, before he fights Harry Wills, it would make as big a joke out of Farey and the rest of the Boxing Commission as it has already made out of Dempsey. Farey need not think he can fool anybody by pretending that he is all for Wills, but that the two other Commissioners are overrueling him. Colored people are used to that sort of bunk—especially from white men who, like Farey, are looking forward to being run for some elective political office and are anxious to make the "culled brother" think that this particular white man, at least, was "for you." If Farey wants to prevent this injustice to Wills and this disgrace, Farey can do it. Dempsey signed a contract to fight Wills nearly a year ago, and somebody posted a $50,000 forfeit for him—and neither was to fight any other person before the year was out, during which time Dempsey was supposed to have fought Wills. Wills has kept strictly to the terms of the contract, for Wills is more than a pugilist; he is a man and a gentleman in the worthy sense of the word.

WHITE NEGRO ART IS EXPLOITED MORE BY WHITES THAN BY THE RAGE ITSELF, DECLARED DR. R. N. DETT, ADDRESSING NEGRO MUSICIANS Dr R. Nathaniel Dett, head of the music department of Hampton Institute, and president, during the 1925-26 term, of the National Association of Negro Musicians, delivered an interesting and instructive address during this year a session of the musical body, held at Philadelphia, July 25 to 31. Dr. Dett's talk was based on the present vogue of Negro art and he declared that the race contribution to/the cultural development of America is being used to a larger degree by Caucasians than by Negroes. He referred to the fact that several outstanding productions which have been fostered by white directors and artists are based on Negro idiom and element, making particular reference to the current play, "Luld Belle", which reached its 200th performance on July 31 in New York City, and to the statement by the former famous exhibition dancers, Vernon and Irene Castle, that much of their work had been learned from Negro tarpslechoreans. Of the play, Dr. Dett said, "Ita intrinsic worth was due to the Negro element." He claimed also that the popularity of the tango, two-step, cake walk, and similar divertissements, were due entirely to the fact that the "Negro theme occupied the center of interest, and that The Birth of a Nation, as intensely as the Negro disliked it, was the success it was because of the Negro element." The attempts made by untrained singers to interpret the Negro Spirituals were decreted by Dr. Dett, who asserted that "The artistic possibility of the Spirituals is limitless, if properly interpreted by competent and sympathetic singers." Referring to the present popularity of jazz music, formerly given as ragtime, the speaker gave the late James Reese Europe credit for rendering the first jazz music program in concert, denying the recent claim which attributes this effort to Paul Whiteman, the white orchestra leader. Said Dr. Dett "James Reese Europe was the first person to give a jazz music program as a concert. That was twenty years ago when Mr. Europe gave such a concert at Carnegie Hall, New York, for the benefit of the New York Settlement School, of which I Rosamond Johnson later became director." "Of course," continued Dr. Dett, "several musicians have claimed the credit for having first introduced a complete jazz program as a concert, chief among which is Paul Whiteman, famous New York orchestra leader. Whiteman positively was not the first to introduce such a program. The Chinese and East Indians crave for Negro jazz. They have been completely swept off their feet with it." Dr. Dett concluded his address by stating that the present day is a challenge to the genius of the American Negro. To the question so often asked, has the Negro any art he can call his own? we might, said Dr. Dett, dodge the issue by countering with the query, has the American any art which could be called his own, but the Negro most certainly has an art of his own, distinctive and with a perfection of form. The presidency of the organization was relinquished by Dr. Dett, and the body elected Carl Diton of Philadelphia, former national organizer, to the position by a unanimous vote. The convention opened on Sunday, July 25th an inter-denominational choir at the Dunbar Theatre, Broad and Lombard streets, with Mrs. Martha R. Anders of Chicago, national vice president, presiding Baptist choirs at the united in a chorus that sang under direction of Mrs. Eva Evans of the first African Baptist Church. Methodist choirs were led by Van Whitted, organist-director of Varick A M E Z Church choir; Julian Adger, organist of St. Simon P. F. Church, conducted the Episcopal choirs; and Russell Johnson, choremaster of the First African Presbyterian Church, swung his baton over the Presbyterian choirs. Splendid musical programs were given afternoons and evenings through the week, among the presiding officers being J. Wesley Jones of Chicago, chairman of the Scholarship Committee, and Clarence Cameron White, composer and violinist, a former president, now at head of the School of Music, West Virginia Collegiate Institute, Institute, W. Va. Perhaps the outstanding feature of the week's activities was the organ program paved by Dr. Melville Carlton, A. A. G. O., of Brooklyn, who has the unique distinction of being the only Negro organist in America who resides two such divergent religious bodies as the Union Theological Seminary, Broadway and 120th street, New York City, the most noted Presbyterian unit school in America and the Bronx Jewish Synagogue, a wealthy and prestigious congregation. Dr. Charlton played his program on the largest organ in America, the Wanamaker Auditorium instrument in the Philadelphia state of John Wanamaker, at 11 a.m. Friday, July 30 and it was broadcast from the Wanamaker radio station, WOO, being heard by thousands of appreciative radio listeners. The Wanamiaker organ, originally constructed and erected for the St. Louis area, is over eighty per cent larger than it was then. There are speaking stoves controlling nearly 20,000 pipes. When transported from Philadelphia, thirteen freight cars were used; it would re-erect the new. There are five manuals and the pedal organ, containing eight organs in all, besides a piano, two sets of chimes, a set of grids and a harp all played from the keyboard of the console. This harp played a program which included the Bach Toccato in F, a Negro Sketch, "Moanin' Pinea," by Burleigh, Chromatic Fantasie, a Swing low, sweet chariot," by Diton, and the Last Movement, a Wife Fifth Symphony. The program was dedicated by the organist Mrs Anna Eva Charlton, who is a native Philadelphiaian, who was particularly gratified at the opportunity afforded her son to the great Wanamiaker instrument on so notable an occasion. More than a thousand of Philadelphia's leading white musicians were present at Charlton, in addition to hundreds of Negro musicians and presentious program of the week, from the stadpoint of the artists participating, was given on Thursday evening at A Museum of Music. Those taking part were Mme. Jesse Andrews Zacka, soprano, of New York City and Denver, Col.; Harriet Savoy, Philadelphia, Levittus Lyon, tenor, holder of a fellowship founder with the late David M.

Mr. Holsey congratulated the citizens of Atlanta upon their success in wining the second prize in this year's National Negro Health Week contest, and reviewed briefly the history of the Business League and its service to the race. Commenting upon the need for co-operation, the speaker said: "The National Negro Business League is a union of local leagues and the local league is a union of local business men. We need then only a program which meets the fundamental problems of our local community. This program embraces a combination of capital, training and experience of the race in order to turn over through business enterprise the millions of dollars spent annually by the race for commodities necessary to our comfort and well being Such combined purchasing power when developed locally and multiplied throughout all the larger centers where there is considerable Negro population would give the race a commanding place in the economic life of the country and would serve as a powerful leverage to better the condition of the Negro along all lines."

For Arthur Reading Denies He Was Caught In Raid With Married Woman Richard E. Carey, attorney for Mrs. Harriet Giles and for Arthur Redding, a public school teacher of The Bronx, has sent The Age a statement denying that Mr. Redding was found in Mrs. Giles' apartment during the course of a raid made on July 25 by her husband. The story published in The Age last week told of a raid on the Giles apartment at 236 West 60th street. In this statement it was alleged that Mr Giles, with a detective and several other witnesses, went to the apartment about midnight and found Mr. Redding, a 26-year-old paper, filed in a counter suit for divorce by Mr Giles, naming Mr. Redding as the correspondent. According to Mr Carey, these statements were wholly false and no papers have been filed in a counter action. Mrs. Giles filed suit against her husband for divorce several months ago. In fairness to both sides. The Age is publishing Mr Carey's statement. Ashland Place Branch Y Miss Francis Gummer, general secretary of the Ashland Place Branch Y W C. A., is now at the W W A.

George Shippen Stark pastor, took his text from Isaiah 53.1, talking upon the universal appeal as set forth in the verse. In his discourse the pastor brought out plainly how the appeal fills every void which is empty; by how by faith we break through human media and set God.

The text was written 2-11-14. He said among other things, "The individual must deny ungodiness, cast aside ordinary human weaknesses, and assume a new temperament of he wants to meet one of the requirements of leading a Christian life." "This is not done in a day, it is a great struggle, for the new life must be lived by faith." Other requirements that were emphasized were; We must "sell out"—that is we must be willing to give up all earthly things if we desire to live this life. We must evaluate between good and evil, and turn away from wordly lust. For this is the age of materialism and inordinate desire for pleasure. He who has embraced the kingdom of God has taken the greatest boon ever given the human race. God's concern for us is that we live rightly. When we live in right relations with ourselves, then only can we live in right relations on our neighbor and our God. For if one is to himself he can then and only then he will trust to others. The ingratiates for this and the fitting up to all of the requirements is the glorious hope for the life eternal for this life only prepares us to live in the future state.

So there had been during the exact feelings of the one who would have been interesting to know. However, despite the uncomprehensive irrespective of what might have been race, in memory, if nothing more, afford to wish peace to his ashes, an Following almost to precision that unostentations manner which characterised him in life, so passed away in the quietude of his Vermont home last week, Robert Todd Lincoln, the man whose attitude and feelings toward the Negro race were always veiled in mystery. To most Negroes, the great Abolitionist's progeny was somewhat of an enigma. First, as son of the man who, by virtue of office and power had freed their sizes and secondly, as the president, and later oh, a director of one of the biggest employers of Negro labor in America, his personal feelings and attitude toward the race came in for much speculation. Some said he did not think kindly of Negroes. For that allegation, they opined that he attributed indirectly to them the tragic death of his father. The allegation was never sustained, so far as Mr. Lincoln's personal actions and expressions were involved, for he was a very quiet person, both in character and speech. Then, too, he had no political ambitions. Hence he had no occasion in which to give public expression to his feelings on the subject. Although every normal-minded Negro has long since realized that political expression are poor barometers by which to judge the real feelings of any white man toward members of his race. While president, and later on director of the Pullman Company, there was nothing in his administration of these offices to indicate that he was biased one way or the other with reference to the race. Although, it might be added, the president of the Pullman Company, like the presidents of other large corporations, has nothing to do with the management of the employees' personnel, something which the average writer in expatriating on the affairs of the Pullman Company doesn't seem to appreciate nor know. Furthermore, during the time in which Mr Lincoln was active in the affairs of the Pullman Company the welfare and general economic condition of the employee did not receive the same attention from the big employer which it does today. So there had been so concrete way of guaging or measuring the exact feelings of the one man whose feelings toward the Negro would have been interesting to know. However, despite the incomprehensible attitude which he presented, and irrespective of what might have been his personal feelings toward us as a race, in memory, if nothing more, of his illustrious father, we can well afford to wish peace to his ashes, and rest to his soul Picked Up Here and There The place to see unusual sights is around a country railroad station. The other day a colored woman with her baby, and the mother and child, were both of an extremely ebony hue, boarded a New York-bound train at a small village in the upper part of the State. Accompanying the colored woman to the train was a white family, consisting of the mother and five children, the oldest of whom appeared to be about twelve years of age. The others ranged downward in size as well as age. Now the unusual thing about the incident, that the white children and all the colored woman's bags, and the oldest child, who was a girl, bugged that little black baby so affectionately in her arms that if you didn't peer the second time you would have thought it were one of Madame Estelle's dark brown baby dolls. After securing a seat for the mother (and she was by no means an invalid) and as the train was leaving the station such a kissing and waving of hands were in progress that it attracted the attention of all the other passengers. The family was a very wealthy one from White Plains, N. and the colored woman, a servant in it was returning to her home in New York City for a three weeks vacation. One of the most surprising but of personal doings to float into the Pullman offices in the Grand Central Terminal last week, was the news that Conductor John A Franklin, 69 years old, and one of the best known Pullman employees in the New York district, had taken unto himself a wife on last Thursday, July 29. Mr Franklin, who lives in Albany, and was a police official in that city before he entered the Pullman sergeant, maintained a state of bachelorhood so long that his recent capitulation to Dame Cupid was most startling tidings to his fellow workers. Following the marriage ceremony, the first Pullman employee to greet Mr. Franklin and his bride and wash them happiness was Porter Joseph W. Price, the dean-porter of the porters who runs on the same train of which the matured bridegroom is the Pullman conductor Mrs Robert I.

Picked Up Here and There No matter in what light one may view the recent strike fiance of the Inerborough's motormen, swithmen and power-house men, there are three features connected with the strike which stand out conspicuously. The first, and by all the means the most heroic of these, was the wisdom of the leaders in realizing and recognizing that they were beaten. Any old kind of leader can realize defeat when he sees it, but it takes a big one to admit it. "Go back to work" was the most sensible advice these prematurely guided men could have been given. The second, was the futility of the men striking when the organization representing them was only fifty-five per cent strong. Going to the mat, with their employee must be fraction cover of the employee, a move almighty to insecurity. Although, if the truth were known, the leaders should not be blamed absolutely for that. The probabilities are that before the day and hour for the strike came, 100 per cent of the these employees had signified their intention to go out, if their demands were not granted. It was only when the actual test came that the number dwindled to the 55 per cent. The third feature, and one that should be an object lesson to certain other group employees, who are also struggling to effect outside organization, was the uselessness of these men's appeal to the public, and the little assistance that men in high office could render them. Public sympathy and the support of public men are myths in organization.
