Two Detectives Caught Redhanded By Inspector Valentine When They Try To Extort $300 From Dr. Richard Birnie
Dr Richard Birnie of 646 Herkimer street, Brooklyn, one of the leading colored physicians in that borough, had more nerve and courage than two police detectives were aware of when they attempted to blackmail him in the sum of $300 in connection with the recent death of one of his former patients, Mrs. Alice Granderson, a widow, formerly of 42 Bergen street, charging that he had failed to report to the proper authorities what they claimed was knowledge of an abortion alleged to have been performed upon Mrs. Granderson by Mrs. Adelaide Foster, a midwife of 557 Herkimer street.

Because his wife had deserted him and refused to return, William Morris, an ex-soldier living at 211 West 145th street, walked into the 16th Precinct-Police Station early Wednesday evening, September 29, and drank half a bottle of iodine in the presence of Desk Lieutenants Daily and O'Connor. The police sent a hurried call to the Harlem Hospital and Patrolman Martin Rhodes ran out and got a quart of milk, which probably saved Morris' life.

There have been three colored men to graduate from the Military Academy.

CENTRAL REPUBLICAN CLUB, 21 West 123rd Street
For many months the Ago has been directing attention of law enforcement officials to the extinishment of Hyman Kassal's operations as the munificent game, and to current reports that he was using all the powerful influence he appeared to possess to gain a monopoly in Harlem as a numbers baker, as he had formerly practically monopolized the bookkeeping activity in this community through scores of canonflaged booth prints.
Deputy Inspector Joseph Thompson was in charge of the raid, and it was expected that "Hyman" would be there in person, but he wasn't.
The officer immediately went to the Kassal house at 230 University Avenue where it was said he was the principal when it was found that he was absent from booths also.
Offered $4000 To Officers
When the officers entered the 1402 street place, they found a pile of greenbacks on the table monthly $1 and 2 bills, totalling some $4,000, and checks amounting to $1,900. And as they entered the room the "Police Queen" in the most monochromatic manner pointed to the $4,000, telling them to help them and forget the road.
Mrs. Kassie, who rides about Harlem in a huxury, high-powered limo was accompanied by Anna Greenberg a 21 year old girl who is supposed to be one of her agents, and Theodore Alverton of 275 West 145th street who, with the "Queen," is hired with operating the game.
...
District Attorney John F McCearan planned going immediately before the against all the prisoners. It is believed that additional indefects involving attested prisoners will be added to the charge of operating a police and processing lottery tips.
Said To Be a Welcher
Hume's activities as a members banker have been of such a nature as to have him in a bad case with his yellow bankers. It is alleged that he has frequently watched on paying his ships when the amount was more than a few dollars. Two instances are recited in one where a player had a $200 not and another in which $1,000 was involved in which the banker refused payment claiming that the ship was lost. The players in it said in both cases had played three more at an alleged agent a hot dog stand at 220 Seventh Avenue. Inspector Ryan was in charge of this district in making a statement effect to put a suit to the plaintiff in numbers at Harlem and in last three months there have been 81 arrests.
Some Tales Of Graft
First it is asserted that some of the officers who are impaired to be enforcing the law are really feathering their own nets. In our case we said that a "storm" pigeon known as "Yuggie" approached a number banker and tried to shake him down on the claim that he was arming for his police employment was arrested. An evidence of the fact that he had been on his officers the banker was called upon shortly afterwards to certain plain clothes men and compelled to pay more $500 or go on jail.
Another case is involved in which a banker paid off man that in the agent who carried the money to pay hits, was picked up by two officers who knew that it was "pay off time" taken with a convenience hallway and forced to turn to the all the money on his person. As it happened that day had been a banker's fare was few fists having been made in the players and on the agent who had not have as much money as the agent arrested. Then the agent had a fist made in the neighborhood and between $50 and $53 three until he had gotten together as much as would satisfy the money lost of the offenders.
Inspector Ryan Determined
Now withstanding this Inspector Ryan
devalues he will not let up on his cam-
paign but is determined to do all in his
power to stamp the game out of Har-
ley. He attains that office only.

It was estimated that the Kagal organization was collecting $2,600 a day, but it is reported that notwithstanding the laid and arrests the operations are being carried on just the same as before.
Some of the hammers were formerly hood soldiers and not all of them confine themselves to the one thing. There is Nathan Steinberg, for instance, who formerly ran hood joints at 2191 Fifth avenue, and 451 Leeson avenue and who was finally run out by Federal Court pallock injunctions, who immediately updied in other locations. Steinberg has openly hounded, it is alleged, that he can operate anywhere, "all the time, as he "pays off" to officers in each town as makes him humble. The residing of a 100 gallon still while it was being operated in a two-family frame dwelling at 131 Wolley street, Long Island City, dislocated at least one of Steinberg's sources of supply. The police arrested three persons—Steinberg, Ruben Work of 1023 Empson street, The Bronx, and Miss Mollie Bloomer of the Wolley street address. Steinberg's home address is given as 1300 East 172nd street. The Bronx.
Distributed By Consumerser
Whatever may be the real condition, Steinberg seems to be put satisfied in his boots, for notwithstanding the two padlocked interactions in Harleen, he was quickly discharged when arranged before the United States Commissar to Brooklyn, Citizens familiar with his Harleen activities express wonder at the apparent immunity which Steinberg seems to enjoy.
Not all of the bankers continue to enjoy property it is said, for of one banker, it is said, that a year ago he was more than $16,000 to the good white today he is practically penitent. The bulk of the money put into the numbers game by Harleen, colored people is taken by the bankers to The Bronx, West Side, Brooklyn or Long Island the bankers riding back and forth in cars that cost a small fortune, plotted by conformed white charfacters, as a rule.

Mystery in Allied Action
Of Officer in Speakasy
Arrest of China. Reassa
Charles Reason, 37, of 2157 Seventh avenue, was arrested on September 28, by Patrolman Otto Burke, shield No. 1295, attached to the 10th Precinct charged with having entered the speech at 2200 Seventh avenue, and, with a toy air gun having attempted to hold up the doorman, proprietor and others who were in the place.
Reason was formerly with the "Old 18th," the 30th A. E. F. in France, under Col Waltman Hayward, and was at one time connected with the prohibition enforcement force.
It is alleged that the officer was in the place when Reason entered, and made the arrest, but that after getting out on the street, Reason was released. Later, however, the officer rearrested Reason, taking him to the West 13th street station house.
Reason was arraigned on Monday, October 4 in the Washington Heights Court before Judge Goodman, who held him without bail for the grand jury.
The alleged proprietor of the speechway, Joseph Cassini, appeared as complainant, and when the testimony was concluded, Judge Goodman ordered Castina held in the House of Detention without bail as a material witness. An air of mystery was lent to the case when it was brought out that when Reason was first arrested and released, he went to The Age office to seek advice from Fred R Moore, editor, and that he also talked with Detective Boyden of the West 133th street station and that immediately after he left the newspaper office, Officer Burke carried into the office, inquiring of Reason had been in and in what direction he had gone. Securing this information, the officer jumped into a taxi and drove rapidly in the direction pointed out, catching up with Reason and arresting him the second row.
Another ensolved problem was why Officer Burke was in the speakyaz at the time. It was testified by the alleged Italian proprietor, Cassina, that he conducted a restaurant, but he could not explain why a lookout was kept on duty, who puffed a chain to open the door to admit only such patrons as he knew to be "taste," the method pursued by the most notorious beach vents in Harlem.
It was also alleged that when Burke took his prisoner to the station house he produced four colored men as witness who said they would testify to whatever the officer desired, but when arranged in court, the Italian proprietor was the accuser.
Navy Deserter Admits
Causing Fatal Fire
On W. 127th Street
Patrick Vincent Nolan 17, who was arrested Sunday night on a charge of having deserted from the U.S. Naval Station at Newport, R.I., confessed to Detective Metry of the West 152nd Street Pohere Station to having set fire to the five story apartment house at 314 West 129th street years ago. One person was killed and several injured in the fire, which completely destroyed the homes of ten families. When arrested, Noian told the detective he had something to confess—something which had been on his mind for two years. He then told how he set fire to the apartment house in which he had hired and stood across the street to watch it burn.
Benjamin Burley a tenant, was trapped on the fifth floor and in an effort to escape bung on the window ledge of his apartment, until his strength failed and he fell to his death. Half dozen other tenants were seriously injured by leaping from the burning building. Nolan told the detective he could not get the image of Burley hanging from the window of the burning building from his mind. He is held on a charge of homicide.

Philadelphia, Pa.—Remarkable progress in tuberculosis prevention work among Negroes as a result of the employment of medical attendants of their own race is revealed in reports made public by Dr Charles J Hattfield former president of the National Tuberculosis Association and now director of the Henry Phipps Institute of the University of Pennsylvania.
The reports, compiled for the institute advisory council of prominent physicians, scientists and educators, show that, while fewer than 100 Negroes a year applied for treatment in the institute when work among their race was carried on exclusively by white agencies, the total now has reached more than 2,600 annually since the employment of Negro doctors and nurses.
This work, although originating at that institute, has been developed in three other localities in the city it is supported by the Philadelphia Health Council and the Whitner Center Association.
Not only were 1,085 new cases among Negroes listed last year and 704 patients remasted, but in addition 10,200 dispensary visits were recorded, 8,943 examinations made by doctors and 12,728 visits made by nurses working among the Negro patients outside the institute.
"These records show Dr Hatfield said, 'that preventive work among Negroes can best be carried out by Negro physicians. Indeed I do not believe that it can be done effectively other wise. If this is to be made possible, however means will have to be relied on to provide scholarships for the training of these men. In a lesser degree this also is true of the colored men."
The Phipps Institute for the Study Treatment and Prevention of Tuberculosis, which was founded by Henry Phipps of New York in 1913 and has since been added materials to contributions from the Phipps family, is unique in its field in that it combines under one roof laboratories for research dispensaries and wards for the care of tuberculous patients. It is now conducted with the co-operation of the entire medical group of the University of Pennsylvania.

Dr. George N. Stoney Of Augusta, Ga., Dies In Norfolk, Virginia
Norfolk, Va.—Dr. George N. Stoney, pastor of Negro physician of Augusta, Ga., died here on Tuesday morning. October 4, at the home of his sister, Mrs. Jessie Stoney Mcdonald, 1509 Queen stairs. He had been operated on at this University Hospital, Augusta, Last May, and after doctors there had despaired of his life, he was taken to New York where he was treated by Dr. Walter Delph, Louis T. Wright and James L. Wilson, undergoing another operation.
On the trip from Augusta to New York, the patient was accompanied by his sister, Mrs Moone, being joined later by his wife, Mrs Rosa Lawson Stoney. After several weeks in New York, it was decided to take him home, breaking the long trip by a stop in Norfolk. He was taken to the home of Dr. S. I Moone, his sister's husband, but grew weaker so steadily it was impossible for Mrs. Stoney to carry out her plans to tighn him home.
Interment will be in the family plot in the City Gemetery, Augusta, on Sunday, October 10.
Dr. Stoney had practiced his profession in Augusta for more than forty years, and enjoyed to an unusual degree the esteem and respect of all classes. He was prominent in fraternal circles, particularly in Pythian circles, being a past grand chancellor and representative to the Supreme Lodge for many years
His practice was large and lucrative, and his property accumulations were large, some of his realty being situated in the most desirable business sections. He was active in church, civic, commercial and educational activities, and his ability and probity had won for him the highest consideration from the white professional and business men of the city.
His only daughter died while still a girl, but an adopted daughter has helped to brighten his home. He is survived by Mrs. Stoney and their adopted daughter, Mrs. Moone, Mrs. Jackson of Allen, another sister, and other relatives.

Dr T O Johnson a dentist of 207 West 138th street was summoned to the Heights Court last Friday, October 1, on complaint of Herbert S. Harris, who occupies a floor in Dr. Johnson's 138th street house. Mr Harris told Magistrate Doures that Dr. Johnson had asked him to move and when he had not done so promptly, the supply of hot water to the Harris apartment had been cut off, and that a plumber (under the pretense of doing some repair work) had entered the apartment and shut off the gas. He asked that the court force Dr Johnson to supply him with these necessities, as had been agreed when the lease on the apartment was taken.
The dentist was represented in court by Attorney Alan Dunghe, who contended that the property was a private house and not an apartment, therefore did not come under the tenement house law. The attorney also explained that Dr Johnson was trying to get possession of the apartment to provide a home for his father.
After listening to the argument, the Magistrate ruled that it was a violation of law to turn off gas and hot water without notice and ordered that this service be restored at once. He told Mr Harris that complaint should be made to the Board of Health if hot water and the gas supply were not maintained at all times.

When the handful of colored motion picture operators began agitation some six months ago for control of operators jobs in the Harlem theatre, they started investigation of a situation that aptly illustrates racial prejudice within the labor unions. At first the dozen colored operators formed themselves into a union of their own and demanded that the theatres with large colored patronage give them employment.
Resists Demands

The union was established in the management of the theatre. In a few years, the union was disproportionately large and the department kept all the funds.

Patrolman Henry Blank, who made the arrest, preferred a charge of disorderly conduct against Mr. Moore. The theatre was willing to drop the charge of violating the injunction but has attorney, Mrs. Ruth Whitehunt Whale, has threatened to sue for false arrest and the management has therefore decided to press the charge. The charge or disorderly conduct was tried in the Heights court on Tuesday.
Friends of Mr Moore say he is not a union employee and his arrest is a violation of the right of free speech guaranteed every citizen.
Detectives Caught In Blackmailing Game
(Centland From First Page)
sonner's confidential staff to accompany him and the four officers followed the doctor to the corner of Court street and Atlantic avenue, at which point they were to receive the money. When Dr. Birmie reached the appointed spot, he stopped his car. The two detectives had parked their car around the corner and Detective Campbell came over to meet the doctor and to receive the money, leaving Detective Slavmayer in the police fliver Standing at Dr Birmie's car Campbell tried to emphasize the value of the alleged service he was rendering, and at the same time asked that his partner be kept in ignorance of the fact that he was getting $300 instead of the original $300, thus indicating that he planned to double-cross Slavmayer.
Caught With The Goods.
The money was handed over, and as Campbell returned to his partner, Dr. Birne remarked that he wanted to get a paper, as an excuse to step out of the car to give the agreed signal which he did.
And as Campbell stepped into the police fiewer with the marked money in his possession, Inspector Valentine and the three sergeants closed in on the car and seured them. Campbell made an effort to get rid of the money by dropping it, but the arresting officers were too quick for him.
The two men were taken to the Butler Street Station, where their shields were stripped from their uniforms, their fingerprints taken and they were placed in cells. They were arraigned Saturday morning in Adams Street Court. Brooklyn, before Magistrate Charles H Hanbert, and held in $2,000 bail, each, for a hearing on October 11, on charges of extortion. Both pleaded not guilty.
Inspector Valentins presented an affidavit showing that by pre-arrangement Dr Birne had given the three marked $100 bills which later he. Inspector Valentine saw delivered to the two detectives at Court street and Atlantic avenue
Officiale Praise Dr Birndle
Both District Attorney Dodd and Inspector Valentine complimented Dr Burnie for his courage in refusing to be blackmailed by the detectives, and for his willingness to cooperate in their apprehension. As a matter of fact Inspector Valentine is quoted as saying, if their demand had been complied with they would have been never making other demands on the doctor and would have Bled him dry, financially. Judge Dodd declared he would use the machinery of his office to converse the men, and would cooperate with commissioner McLaughlin to the fullest extent in ridding the police force of graffits and extortioners. And especially emphatic was he in declaring that he purposed always to work to protect any citizen, of any race, color or condition, from injustice and oppression.
It is reported that the accused man have made desperate efforts to reach Dr. Birnstein in the endeavor to secure leniency. Mrs. Adelaide Foster the midwife arrested following the death of Mrs. Granderson had a hearing in the Homicide Court 11 Sunder avenue on Friday morning and was discharged in law of evidence.

Richard Moore Convicted
Gets Suspended Sentence
Richard B. Moore, who was arrested last week for alleged violation of an injunction spotted by the Lafayette Theatre against agitation of the motion picture operators' strike, and on a disinterested conduct charge preferred by the arresting officer, was found guilty on the latter charge in the Washington Heights Court Tuesday afternoon. He was given a suspended sentence.
B. L. Burt, manager of the Lafayetteold Magistrate Goodman that his theatre had secured an injunction from Supreme Court Judge Valante to prevent agitation by striking motion picture operators until the case on which the strike was basel had been settled in court. He declared that Mr Moore in his address to some 150 people at 18th street and Seventh avenue had attempted to incite his hearers to storm the theatre
Patrolman Blank, who made the arrest, testified he was patrolling Seventh avenue when he saw a police car drive past where Mr Moore was speaking and order him away. When the speaker ignored this order, he made the arrest.
Mrs Ruth Whitehurst Whalley of 206 Broadway, who represented the defendant, moved to have the case dismissed. Mr Moore denied that he was employed by the Operator's Union and stated that he expressed an opinion as a citizen being under the impression that all such persons were guarded the right of free speech. He denied having acted disorderly in any way.

Congressman Royall H.
Weller Launches Campaign
For Re-Election
Appeal to Voters on Splendid Record During Past Four Years—Local Headquarters at 2322 Seventh Avenue.
Congressman Royal H Weller, Regular Democratic Candidate of the 21st Congressional District, has opened his campaign for re-election with local headquarters at 2322 Seventh avenue, (between 135th and 137th St.) The Congressman says that his appeal will be made solely upon his record of accomplishments during his four years in the House of Representatives.
He points with a great deal of pride to the aid he has given the Veterans of his district and Howard University. Congressman Weller, who is a real Harlemite, was graduated from public school No. 69. He was born a few blocks from the school in 1881.
After graduating from the High School, he took up a four-year course at the College of the City of New York. He then took law at the New York Law School. He was admitted to the practice of law in 1902. From 1911 to 1917 he served as an Assistant District Attorney During the war, he was counselor for the Alien Property Custodian.
Congressman Weller is a member of the County Lawyer's Association, the American Bar, the Seventh Representation Veteran's Association, the New York Athletic Club and B P O Elka. Because of the efforts of Mr. Weller, Howard University received an additional appropriation of $500,000. He was responsible for the affairs of the University being taken out of the hands of the Interior Department making it possible for the alumni to have a voice in the administration of the institution
The Congressman blocked a move to cut the University off from receiving an annual appropriation from the government. He championed the cause of the institution during its campaign for money to build a new athletic building and funds for the medical school.

Run-Down
gave out easily
"My health wasn't any account at all, says Mrs. H. L. Cayton, of Washington, N.C. I would start to do my housework and I would give out before I had done anything at all. I did not have any strength, and if I did the least thing it seemed to tax me so I could not finish. I was run-down sure enough.
"Several of my friends had taken Cardini and they said to me, 'Why don't you try it?' I knew I needed something to build up my general health and to increase my strength.
"Finally one day when I was recovering from a spell of sickness, I decided to try Cardini. I got a bottle and began to take it. I could notice that I was ingrerving, getting so饱得 go bellow, and I did not go and nearly so quick. I took several bottles and I felt lots better.
"Two years ago I decided to take it again. It built me up and made me feel like a different person."

AIDING UNPOPULAR CAUSES
Closely following the election of James Weldon Johnson as president of the American Fund for Public Service, came the announcement a few weeks later that no new applications for aid were being considered. The reasons assigned were that the Garland Fund, as it is better known, has been entirely disposed of by gifts, loans or amounts pledged for future payment. This fund consisted of a legacy left to Charles Garland by his father which amounted to fully a million and a half dollars through the increase in the value of storks. The younger Garland refused to accept the legacy for his personal use and devoted it to public service not covered by existing welfare agencies.
An organization was formed to carry out this idea, which included various exponents of liberal policies for education, labor and humanitarianism. During the four years since the fund was established its officers have distributed from principal and income 1,674,000. Of this amount $829,000 has been given away outright, $388,000 pledged for future payment and the balance of $457,000 represents outstanding loans and insements or purchases of stock to assist preserving enterprises. The variety of objects aided through this fund is shown by the following list:

The reasons assigned were that the Garland Fund, as it is better known, has been entirely disposed of by gifts, loans or amounts pledged for future payment.

During the four years since the fund was established its officers have distributed from principal and income $1,674,000. Of this amount $829,000 has been given away outright, $388,000 pledged for future payment and the balance of $457,000 represents outstanding loans and indorsements or purchases of stock to assist deserving enterprises. The variety of objects aided through this fund is shown by the following list:
Brookwood Labor College. Katonah N. Y.; Labor Age, a monthly magazine, Pioneer Youth, an organization for workers' children; the Rand School Research Department, the Federated Press, a labor press service, Chicago; workers' educational schools, conducted under the auspices of the United Mine Workers' in Pennsylvania and Illinois; the Workers' Health Bureau, New York City; Commonwealth College, a workers' school at Mena, Ark; the educational work of the Colorado and Wyoming Federations of Labor, Philadelphia Labor College; the Workers' Party School, Portland (Ore.) Labor College and the Seattle Labor College. The pledge to the Brookwood Labor College, which is the largest, $150,000, covers a ten year period
The Legal Defense Fund, instituted by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, was aided to the extent of several thousand dollars in its fight against residential segregation and other cases involving color discrimination. Other projects helped through this fund were the League for Industrial Democracy, the movement against militarism in education, the cause of civil liberties and the defense of the working class in its struggles against capitalism. Another movement for the benefit of American Negroes that has reserved aid by a loan or indorsement is the National Urban League. It will be seen that the financial aid so promptly given by the Garland Fund went to what might be called unpopular causes, involving in most cases the struggle of a minority against the weight of public sentiment or at least public indifference. Even the Industrial workers of the World and the Sacco-Vanzetti Defense Committee were included in the list of beneficiaries. The disposition of the Garland Fund is a unique demonstration of the sentiment of helping the under dog in the fight, a principle more frequently advocated than practiced. The promptness with which the directors of the fund have carried out the ideas of the founder furnishes a precedent for other executors of trusts, which might be adopted to advantage. The Garland Fund constitutes a rare example of an individual rejecting a legacy of a million dollars because of conscientious scruples and devoting it to public service in untried experiments. It was at least afforded a test for new remedies prescribed for many social ills.

CONTEMPT OF COURT
The resort to the charge of contempt of court as a means of muzzling a newspaper or punishing an obstreperous editor, who reuses to be muzzled, is not new. In fact, instances of such attempts to muzzle a free press date back to the early days of the newspaper in both English and American history. Only a few months ago there was the case of an Indiana editor who in his fight against the Ku Klux Klan aroused the case of county officials elected by the Klan and incurred a heavy sentence of fine and imprisonment for alleged contempt of court in appeal was taken and his conviction will be carried to a higher court, a fund having

In fact, instances of such attempts to muzzle a free press date back to the early days of the newspaper in both English and American history.

An appeal was taken and his conviction will be carried to a higher court, a fund having
The latest example of this perversion of the power of the courts was reported from Kentucky, in what looks like an attempt to muzzle the Negro press. Proceedings were instituted before the Hopkins County Circuit Court last week to try two Louisville editors William Warley and I. Willis Cole, on charges of contempt of court. The basis for these charges was alleged to be the comments printed in the two Negro papers of Louisville on the trials of Negroes charged with criminal assault in Hopkins County. In one article, the trial which lasted but eight minutes, was referred to as "another legal lynching." It was also declared that owing to the high feeling during the trial, the "accused cannot secure a fair trial in Madisonville".
The prompt infliction of the death penalty upon Negroes was also contrasted with the case of a white youth, who was sent to an insane asylum, after he had been charged with assault upon a Negro girl. The numerous articles which were printed in the two Louisville papers during the trial incensed the Hopkins County officials, who alleged that they were calculate to arouse feeling against the whites and create race antagonism during the trial at Madisonville. The articles were termed felonious as well as false, and the commonswealth attorney sought to indict the two editors for violating a section of the Kentucky statutes, which later was found to have been repealed. Then followed the charges of contempt of court.
The onus of this contempt to muzzle these two Louisville papers, the News and the Leader, is so palpable as to deceive no one. It is on record that public feeling ran so high in Madisonville during the trial of the two Negroes, that five hundred state troops were sent to the town to prevent an outbreak of mob violence and possibly a lynching. What kind of a trial was possible under such conditions may well be imagined.
The prosecution of these two editors on such a charge as contempt of court can only be regarded as another effort to muzzle the press. Even if a verdict of guilty should be rendered in Madisonville, it would hardly be sustained upon appeal.
SCHOOL ADMINISTRATION
the administration of the system of education is a task that calls for the best qualities of executive ability, as technical training on the part of a trained with such responsibilities. The city like New York it also calls for knowledge of the special needs and a necessary in making that system use the various conditions and capacities to be benefitted by it. It calls for aesthetic interest and fairness on the part those engaged in the work. The usefulness of the city school system benefits for the community are by having in high official positions and fair administrators as Mr. Stern, vice president of the Board of Education, and Dr. William J. O'Shea,endent of Schools. Their interesting the schools serve the interests of the population has been created on many occasions, while stress in the matter of appointments motions is beyond question.

The administration of the system of public education is a task that calls for the highest qualities of executive ability, as well as technical training on the part of those charged with such responsibilities. In a large city like New York it also calls for a knowledge of the special needs and adjustment necessary in making that system useful to the various conditions and capacities of those to be benefitted by it. It calls for sympathetic interest and fairness on the part of all those engaged in the work
The usefulness of the city school system and the benefits for the community are doubled by having in high official position such wise and fair administrators as Mr. M. Samuel Stern, vice president of the Board of Education, and Dr. William J. O'Shea, Superintendent of Schools. Their interest in making the schools serve the interests of all elements of the population has been demonstrated on many occasions, while their fairness in the matter of appointments and promotions is beyond question. The interests of the schools and of the community are safe in such hands.
Referring to another detail of school administration. The Age is glad to hear that a new spirit of service has become manifest in the conduct of Public School No 36. This would indicate that the discussion brought about over the administration of this school before the summer vacation was not entirely in vain. It may be that the principal has acquired a broader vision in regard to the needs and capacities of the pupils under her charge. At any rate a change that would increase the value of the training for the pupils is to be welcomed.

A curious bit of human nature is displayed in the pronounced tendency among the voters of Harlem to hurrah for "All Smith." The popularity of the present Governor in this city is indisputable, and is the natural reaction to his genial nature and reharkable career, beginning on the streets of New York and making him three times the Executive of the Empire State. But notwithstanding these facts, we do not see exactly why the Negro voters of Harlem should hurrah so loudly for Smith.
During the three terms that Governor Smith has presided over the affairs of the State, he has not recognized the existence of the Negro as a voter and a taxpayer to the extent of appointing even one individual of the race to membership on a state commission or to any office in the public service. He has ignored the Negro as a citizen in the same way that Governor Hughes and Governor Miller did. These latter two were Republicans and beyond coming to Harlem to solicit the support of Negro voters previous to election, they failed utterly to recog-

enship. Governor Smith has done no better in this respect.
On the other hand, it is only fair to condeed that Mr. Smith has proved an able administrator in state affairs and has acquired himself as an adroit and skillful politician. When a member of the Legislature he supported the policy of Tammany Hall in giving the Negro a fair deal in matters where race interests were involved. He adopted the policy of "hands off" in the matter of the Boxing Commission and the Dempsey-Wills matter, when a word from him might have kept the fight with Tunney in this State. He has never opposed the liberal policy of the leaders of Tammany in appointing Negroes to office in New York City. In view of his avoidance of recognition of the Negro as a factor in State politics, we do not see any good reason why the colored voters of Harlem should wear themselves coarse in hurrahing for "Al" Smith, or any other candidate who so studiously ignores their capacity for public service.

REGISTRATION WEEK
The voters of New York City are given the whole of this week to get their names on the registration books, so that they may be able to vote at the forthcoming election in November. If any of those who are eligible to vote have not yet registered, they should get their names on the books before they close on Saturday night.
The election this year promises to be of more than usual interest and importance. Alfred E. Smith is to run for Governor for the fifth time and test the truth of the old dage about the pitcher that went to the cell too often. To try to bring about the Governor's defeat, the Republicans have dominated Representative Ogden Mills, a hard hitting political speaker who will eneavor to pierce the weak spots in the Governor's shining harness. Although he inhered a fortune, Mr. Mills is an authority on financial questions in his own right by dint of study and experience.
Another contest that is expected to arouse the voters on both sides is that of Judge Wagner, who was named by the Democrats to fill the seat in the United States Senate. Now held by James W. Wadsworth, Jr. The present Senator from New York also comes from a hereditary ruling class, long lords of the manor in upper New York State. He has moved himself a legislator of ability and distinction, though inclined to hold himself proof from the active political workers and those who bring out the votes. His native independence was illustrated in the position he took against the Prohibition amendment, as well as against woman suffrage despite his independent attitude toward public opinion. Senator Wadsworth has won the confidence and respect of his party, who will support him for re-election.
Another important question to be decided is this election is the prohibition referendum is expected to show whether the people of New York State are in favor of the present sort of prohibition enforcement or whether they are in favor of having Congress modify the Volstead act, so as to leave to each state the definition of what constitutes inexplicating beverages.
Altogether it promises to be a very lively campaign as to candidates and issues. Those who wish to have a voice in deciding the issues and electing the candidates should register by all means.

A PRESIDENTIAL AWAKENING

Marchbanks Jr., as a candidate at large to take the entrance examination for the United States Military Academy at West Point, as of more than ordinary significance.

The announcement made the first of this month by the Associated Negro Press in a dispatch from Tucson, Arizona that President Coolidge had designated Vance H. Marchbanks, Jr., as a candidate at large to take the entrance examination for the United States Military Academy at West Point, was of more than ordinary significance. The candidate is the son of a warrant officer of the Tenth Cavalry, one of the four regiments of Negro soldiers in the United States Army. He is to notify the adjutant general of his acceptance or rejection of the appointment and be prepared to report at Fort Bliss, Texas, to take the examination next March.
This is the first presidential nomination of this kind on record all the previous nominations of colored candidates having been made through members of Congress, the latest being that of a New York bid by Representative Ansorge of Harlem four years ago. His candidate was rejected as having tailed to pass the entrance examination. The fact that President Cohodge has named the son of a warrant officer of the famous Lenth Cavalry is indicative of an awakening on the part of the President to the part that the soldiers of the race have played in the wars of the country.
So far only three colored cadets have been graduated from West Point and appointed as officers in the army. They were Lieutenants John H. Alexander and Henry O. Flipper and Colonel Charles Young whose retirement was forced to prevent his taking part in the World War under the Wilson administration. Other colored officers have

The Republican slogan adopted in Kentucky, that "Coolidge Needs Ernst," does not appear to find favor with the Louisville Leader, which said among other things.
We cannot overlook the record of the candidate, for while the party cry, "Coolidge Needs Ernst," rings from the Big Sandy to the Father of Waters, and from the Ohio to the Tennessee line, we must see whether the candidate has in his official capacity remembered us and our needs as a group and a set of loyal voters.
If he has, there is some justification for us seeing that Coolidge gets him. If he has not the cry from higher up for him might excusably fall on deaf ears.
It has been possible for the officials in the higher positions, for the candidates, and for the parties to give us as a people tangible and unmistakable reasons for being moved by the slogan, "Coolidge Needs Ermut." Unfortunately for the friends of the leading candidates this is not true.
What we have said simply calls attention to the facts, to the true status of things. It is only by recognizing these that our voters, or any voters, can use the ballot wisely and do justice to themselves and to all and everything concerned. For it goes without saying—or it should go without saying—that conditions in this country make it imperative for the Negro to consider his peculiar interests along with and aside
Editor of The New York
The article appearing in the New York Age of October 2nd 1926 under the caption "Congressman Weller Insults Negro Voters seems to be a perversion of the truth Congressman Weller did not, and had no intention of insulting the Negro voters. Harlem is familiar with the record of Congressman Weller and is aware that the interest he has shown for our group is equal to that which he has shown for his own racial group. This is evidenced by his effort in connection with the appropriation by Congress of $30,000 to erect a monument in Sechault, France, to perpetuate the heroeship of Negro soldiers, also by his earnest, amicre and effective work in connection with the budget of the Interior Department as it affected Howard University, making it possible that the University could get larger appropriations, and at the same time taking it out of the Rules Committee where it can be no longer struck out by the whim of any individual Congressman
Yes, Mr. Weller did use the word 'nigger' but it must not be lost sight of that he placed the word between quotations. It was not an expression of his own thoughts or sentiments or feelings, but an illustration of the sentiment which existed immediately after the Civil War which was responsible for the exclusion of the colored woman from treatment she required in a hospital. It seems that Mr. Lenox championed the cause of this colored woman. She had nursed him from his infancy, in fact during all his life and he was gratefu. Moved by his gratitude when she needed first class medical treatment, Mr. Lenox sought enter her in a hot 'pait' when he was met with refusal, because as they said, this woman was a 'nigger'. He then and there determined to, and found the Presbyterian Hospital.
This is the story. Weller told and this is the way in which he used the word 'nigger'

shing served at one time as Major with the Tenth Cavalry. It is fitting that the Commander-in-Chief of the Army and Navy should open the doors of West Point to the son of a warrant officer of one of these regiments. The same thing should be done in the case of the Naval Academy at Annapolis. No institution supported by the, government for the training of its citizens for the defence of the country, should discriminate against its citizens because of race or color. If there has come a presidential awakening on this subject, we trust it will extend to other departments of the government, where such discrimination is practiced.

An attempt to enforce the Virginia law requiring the separation of the races in public gatherings was noted in the news columns of the Norfolk Journal and Guide as follows:
The warrant against Elder Lightfoot Michaux charging violation of the Massenburg law which grew out of his baptizing white and colored candidates together in a big baptism at the boat harbor here Sunday before last, was dismissed when he was arraigned in Police Court Saturday morning. The warrant was dismissed on motion of Commonwealth's Attorney Smith who stated that the white people who took part with the colored in the services had left town and that was the only object sought in issuing the summons against Elder Michaux.
Elder Michaux in a letter to a daily newspaper claimed that the Massenburg law did not apply to the church and quoted the State Attorney General as
GET RID OF THAT BUGABOO
Pet bugaboos seem to maintain their popularity, more or less, in spite of the discoveries of science and the wider general knowledge of the public. Man somehow likes to hang on to a few superstitions. Mort of the fear of these bugaboos is ridiculously sily, and entire unfounded. For instance, there is the prevalent dread of high blood pressure. High blood pressure is not a normal condition and may become serious, but it may be possible to avoid it. Have a physical examination by your doctor every year. If you have high blood pressure he will discover it tell you what to do and thus you may avoid serious illness and get rid of the bugaboos of high blood pressure. There are two main causes of this trouble: arteriosclerosis, this is a hardening of the arteries which occurs in the process of growing old and is something we all may have and chronic or acute disease of the kidneys. Every person should have a thorough physical examination by his doctor every year so that the source of error if there is one can be determined and adjusted. It is a simple matter for you to go to your doctor for an examination. He will tell you how to regulate your daily regime and routine if you have high blood pressure. It is a big thing for you to keep your health by making frequent visits to your doctor.
The Harlem Lottery
From The N Y Evening World
For many years the public lottery in Naples was a fetish to the greater part of the people especially the poor seeking easy gains. It led righteously on human greed and credulity and claimed its victims by the thousands. Forty-two turn suicide—these were its by-products. The irresistible lure and tragedy of that institution have been vividly described in Matilde Serao's great novel "The Land of Corkayne." Were this gifted woman seeking a similar theme for an other story, she could find it in Harlem the same infatuation affecting thousands of men, women and children claiming its status as always an imprisonment, run and suicide. In Nigger Heaven we get glimpses of the murder at work in the city.
The World's most gated district has a school in which every school child's taking their peninsula on the desperate chance hard working women asking their dimes and colored women intelligence gambling way their accumulations. It means the degradation of a great population with society looking on complacently differently. It possible to stop it should be stopped. According to the police the evil has reached such proportions as to be beyond the control of the limited force in the district. An average of eight gamesters are arrested daily which means nothing with $36,000,000 risked annually by an inflated people. I class money the easiest game to play and it appeals to the dutch digger and the doctor, the bootlegger and the butcher. The publishers should bring out a Harlem Edition of "The

The St. Luke's Herald of Rome
views with alarm the large number of
citizens in jail all over this country
said:
This increase of the jail population of recent years, takes a heavier toll on the colored people in the South than nine per cent, of it is altogether called for.
We should seek to decrease the response on the city and state. A Negro as the case is often noticed, frequently goes to jail as stool-pigeon for criminal white law-breaker. We become the discredited cat's powe used by the monkey in removing the chasers from the fire. That as one chance cause why so many Negroes are part of the jails. The master who is white often goes free while the ignorant Negro partner is deaved in jail.
We remember the motto of business wisdom of a distinguished banker of color who says, above board, that never lie in jail for anybody. We need to preach this gospel to every Negro.
On the other hand, white papers in South Carolina and Georgia have expressed alarm over statistics showing that the whites in prison outnumber the blacks.
Commenting on the statement that certain interests and persons are the white dailies to give publicity in their activities, the Savannah Tribune
There is no objection to the use of the columns of these dailies for publicity is helpful, especially when articles are published without reference parts. The local dailies are here giving space to events among people but in every instance have delete the prefix "Mr. Miss." These and other journals think it a crime to prefix to the name of a colored woman. On the other hand they call a colored man "severend" "Colonel," etc. or the colored woman "sister" etc. but never will mit "mister," "mistress" or The deleting of these words is felt as the severest reflection and no person with the least would stand or permit such a It is alright so far as the men around, but it is more severest the name of our women.

Angels are with you in sorrow and joy. And the angels of God comfort and protect you. And angels attend your dying bed. There are good, and bad angels. But as great as the angels are, He never said to one of them, "Sit ye on empires thy footwork. I make thine empires thy footwork. Thee war and rebellion in heaven. Mithk throws out the devil. He wakes up enough to throw the devil out of heaven yet God the Father never said to him "Sit thou on my right hand until I make thine enemies thy footstool."

Dr. Oliver's sermon last Sunday a.m. was inspiring and helpful. The theme was "The Patience of Christ," Isaiah 53:7. In this instance, the patience of our Saviour is likened unto that of a lamb when being led to the shearer's. It is not the shearer's intention to harm the sheep by shearing the wool, but it is for the benefit of all concerned that this procedure is carried out. We are often ridiculed and oftimes have falsehoods told about us, but these are the devil's weapons. It is for us to patiently bear our sufferings for his sake. Patience is a virtue. Our Good Shepherd cares for His stock in His way which is always for our good. If a man or woman would be Christ-like, he or she must be patient as Christ. To be patient means to be comforted, cheered, and exhibit the Spirit of Christ, at all times.
Holy Communion was observed at 3 o'clock, Rev. Albert Johnson preached a soft stirring sermon and a spiritually good time was enjoyed by all

At the evening worship the new order of service for the First Sunday was instituted There was no sermon but instead Dr Cullen administered the Sacrament which was for the first time during the day The Communion wine was mixed with water drawn from Jacob's well which the pastor had brought with him on his return from the Holy Land.

Bridge St. A. M. E. Church
One of the largest congregations that has ever attended the morning services in the history of the church was present Sunday, October 3, when the Rt Rev. William H Heard, bishop of the First Episcopal District, preached. It was Organization Day and practically every event took place. This first day of the big days planned by the pastor, Dr. E. E. Tyler. Bishop Heard preached from St Mark 10:44. "Whosoever of you will be the chieftest, shall be the servant of all."
The salient points of the sermon were: We should at all times be busy trying to do good, and to make the world a better place to live in, we should not look for place or position in life that has been prepared for others, but we must earn our place, in church or state we must do our duty. As Christians this rule obtains in a greater sense. However, it does not matter so much what denomination we belong to as it does to our efforts to render christian service and to be like Christ. The following persons joined the church Mrs Hattie Dale and J H Dale, 182 Duffield street, Miss Lillian Lowell, 853 Atlantic avenue, Miss Carrie Gissantner, 2440 East 13th street, Manson Williams, 423 Herkum street, Isaiah Jeffeld, 3707 Fort Hamilton Parkway and Tillman Farlace 445 McDougall street.

The Alive Reagus at weeper services
hold an interesting range of press-
press and digital magazines.
Dr. Tysler occupied the pulpit at the evening hour. He apologe on the topic, "The Oblitating Power of Faith." The text was St. Matthew, 927. He stressed the thought that "H Christianity makes any progress at all; it must make it Through the individual works of its followers." There are many of us who are not physically blind but are blind through prejudice lack of desire to be informed and ignorance. Dr. Tysler concluded with the point that the oblitating power of faith is made possible through three things. First We must have a sense of need and for our incompleteness. Second We must make the effort. Third we will reward it. The cummage safe conducted by the Floral Club will be October 6, ending October 8 at the church house. Friday evening will be Love Feast. Communion will be served on Sunday. The hapiness of children will be on the third Sunday in October. The fifth Sunday in the month will be given over to the Junior Church. The Rev. F. H.

Nazarene Cong. Church
The Rev Dr. Henry Hugh Proctor filled his pulpit at both services Sunday. At the morning hour his topic was "Living By Prayer." He said, "Reduced to its simplest terms prayer is asking. On its lowest level it is man asking man, and the poverty of our lives consists in our failure to recognize our mutual dependence, and call upon others to do for us what we cannot do for ourselves."
"Reaching up to a higher level, prayer is man asking God, and rests on the principle of man a dependence upon God. At the evening time his subject was "The Voice of God to the American People in the Florida Hurricane" which was due not to make a God of beauty, gold, pleasure, drink, or color, but put strength above beauty. Character above gold, joy above pleasure, law above drink, character above color. The pastor will fill his pulpit next Sunday morning speaking on "Out of Weakness into Strength." At the evening hour the church will unite with the Central Congregational Church, Hancock street and Spender place in what promises to be the greatest interracial meeting in the history of Brooklyn.

Voerhees N. & I. School Opens 28th Annual Session
Denmark, S. C. The Voorbees N. I School opened for its 28th year on Wednesday September 29th. Students came from several states, the larger number coming from South Carolina, North Carolina, George and Florida. Some students come each year from a far north as New York. The usual enrollment is from 600 to 650. By October 31 1925, there were 681 enrolled. Two hundred and ten boarders were accommodated last year. At this writing each train is bringing its number. In spite of the low prices of cotton and the large number of bank failures, in this section of the country, somehow covered people sem to get their hands on money enough to give their children a chance in school. There are some who are sending letters saying that it is impossible for them to send "John," "Marry," etc. this year because the cotton is not selling for very much. This is certainly a fact that cotton is cheap, and yet, the children should in some way be given a chance
Located in a community where there are so many colored people, Voytees is in the right place to do good work. A cordial invitation is hereby extended to those who may pass back and forth to visit the school and see what is being done. The Negro like all other citizens, is charged with the duties of citizenship at Voytees we are trying to teach our students that they may be real citizens because they understand their rights. The authorities at Voytees are looking to the future with hope, believing that because they are doing a worth while job in a worth while way most support will come. J. F.

The stock of the Bacharach Giants took a big jump last Sunday when they defeated the American Giants of Chicago in the third game of the colored "world's series" played in Baltimore. The first game was a tie and the Chicago team was victorious in the second, which makes the teams even as to the number of games won. A left hand pitcher by the name of Claude Grier in the season the Bacharachs are favored to win the series.
In Sunday's game, Grier pitched a no run, no hit game and fanned eight batters. Behind his pitching the Bacharachs played like a team inspired and slammed in 10 runs, forcing the westerners to use their two best pitchers.
With Grier on the mound the Bres can be depended upon to cop the final game of the series, should the other pitchers hold Chicago even until that time.
The blond young pitcher of the Bacharachs is just about the best twirler in colored baseball a the present time. He was one of the group of college ball players caught up by John Heury Lloyd for the Atlantic City team three years a. He has been improving steadily each season and this year has been his best. He pitched on the varity nine at A. & T. College, Greensboro N. before coming to Atlantic City.
Grier is eccentric and, until his success as a pitcher, say local ball players as due to the fact that most batters fear him. He has unusual speed and is known to be one of his fast balls got away from him and he larger (Monk Johnson of the Lincoln Giants) on the shoulder, shattering a collar bone. Since that time all local batters have been quick to duck the pitched anywheres close to them.
The big red pitcher has capitalized this fear in the cart, so much so that he lost very few games for his team this season. A story is told of how Grier beat a team that had previously been a pix to the Bacharachs. The story was told by a player on the opposing team. His version is that Grier came to the park late one afternoon and appeared to be under the influence of liquor. Last before time to go on the field he went into the clubhouse of the opposing team and took a bottle from his pocket and offered the players a tip. No one accepted the invitation so he drank the whole past himself.
When he was called on to pitch the opposing side expected to find him so wild he would be taken out before the first inning was over. The first two or three batters gave him plenty of room but to their surprise the umpire called them out on strikes. Most of the batters were fearful that he would but someone but instead of pitching wild, he pitched better that day than ever before. The Bacharachs won the game, as Grier allowed but three hits. After the game was ended the opposing team was told it was not liquor but colored water they had seen Grier drink.
Whether the story is true or not, it illustrates the fact that Claude Grier is an unusually brainy pitcher and the Bacharachs and other teams that make up the Eastern Colored League might well be proud of him.

BACHARACHS IN 3-3 TIE WITH CHICAGO IN WORLD'S SERIES
Atlantic City—The third annual colored "world's series" opened here on October 1 between the Bacharach Giants, representing the East, and The American Giants, representing Chicago. The two teams battled through nine thrilling innings to a tie, playing before 5000 fans. The game was called at the end of the ninth inning because of darkness.
"Rat" Henderson and Rube Currie were the opposing pitcher. It was not long before the Giants displayed the fire and dash which enabled them to overthrow the Monarchs in the west. In the second inning, Hines, the aggressive catcher, opened hostilities with a single to left field. Sweatt got a free ticket and Marlarcher made it three on and none out when Marcell failed to handle his bunt down third base line. Henderson fauned Williams, but Jackson sent a roller down to the pitcher's box and the Bacharach hurler threw wild to the plate, permitting Hines to score the first run.
In the fourth the Bees began to sting in their own right and rallied to score two runs and go into the lead. The rally came after two men were out. Manager Dick Lundy

You'll remember that the last film which starred Gloria, was entitled, "The Untamed Lady" Now, "Fine Manners," her very newest, arrives at the Lincoln on Thursday.
Is it possible that "The Untamed Lady" has taken a course in "Fine Manners"? If so, what will she be like? If we are to listen to reports which trickle in from out of town, "Fine Manners" is the very best picture Paramount's scintillating star has ever made.
Eugene O'Brien Walter Goas and Helen Dudbar head Miss Evanson's supporting cast. James Athmore Creelman and Frank Verrand wrote the story as an original for Gloria. "Fine Manners" is Rich Roson's first effort at directing a Paramount production

Olcott had a suspicion as to what had happened to his friend, and he was guide right, for a postcard arrived the next day announcing that the wanderer was sailing on a vessel bound for China. Olcott withheld the name of the perturbing actor.

THE WEST JUDIES OF TOMORROW-- THE 45th STATE
Nearly three decades ago Sir Corrad Reeves Esq, the only Negro Chief Justice of Barbados thought of the closer co-operation that confederation would bring among the various islands including a more liberal franchise for the Negroes. He was called to England and publicly knighted and since then conditions are such that 3,000 in Barbados can voice their political opinions while there are only a few hundred black voters each in the other islands and today there are not over 30,000 out of more than 2,000,000 Indians in the British Wetton Indies having the franchise, for while the American Negro is oppressed by an overwhelming majority the West Indian is ruled absolutely by an insignificant minority and there are no attempts at lynching simply because that the Nordic is the guilty debancher of black women, the racial choice of which is a complete vindication of his "just niggers" tactics" while the black man stands as the innocent defender of the faith in this matter.
The West Indian Negro is not isolated in his knowledge of race hatred in America, and in the recent Sweet trial fund donations came from as far south as Grenada, for there are many who know of the marine-ised activities in Haiti and the Virgin islands of the hot-tarring and saddling of fellow West Indians in now destroyed Miami, Florida, to say nothing of the geheena of intolerance south of the Ohio and Potomac rivers, and unless America cast out the derville of race hatred and Nordic arrogance into the bottomless abyss of tolerant democracy, her untold wealth would not be the only physical and mental consolation to the sensitive West Indian. On the other hand the encircling gloom boves over and although Britain has millions of undeveloped acreage in Honduras and Guiana she has given none to the suffering Negroes and the main outlaws have been closed by America's quota restriction. Canada's diplomatic color barrier, the White Australia policy and the scare "barooxm" caused by the talk of redeeming Africa and even intercolonial migration is discouraged for the recent massacre in Cuba of British West Indians has at the present time blighted hopes of prospective migrants and the nice Briton may yet console the Negro in his adversity while blinding him to the inevitable woe of the bitter economic future.
There was a discussion some time ago relating to the turnover of the British West Indies to Canada thus forming more centralized rule over the islands but the plan was laid aside for the present, and the possibility of giving the islands to America as part of Britain's war debt was another suggestion which caused the newspapers of Barbados, Trinidad and Jamaica to comment touch on the mischief making that the species that would inhabitate. Yet the native newspapers can no more influence Britain's foreign policy in that matter than the protests of millions of Kenya-Negroes did when their land was ceded to Italy not long ago. For some day the West Indians may awake to find their destinies shifted to another sphere of national thought and the political activities of America's military authorities may go forward without onward incidents, racial or otherwise if the more than 100,000 islanders in America desire it so by throwing their lot now with their American brethren and electing black men to both houses of Congress to thus ward off the inevitable "Amurzat" that most helpless people and rares fall victim to.
This writer feels that it is the racial duty of every West Indian in America to qualify as voters and enter the political arena with the American Negro, for the latter has trodden the distant path in many a darkened hour to save America, leaving a cermonial trail on every battle field from Bunker Hill to the Argentine to wrestle the laurels for a country which in woe and weal is his uncompromising and because of geographical locations which may yet determine the common lot of both groups, it is this writer's conviction that the future of the West Indian and destiny of the American Negro is closely wrapped together and indivisible.

Cotton Growers Of Ariz.
Import Porto Rican Labor
Who Strike For Living Wage
Phoenix, Ariz. (P. C. N. B.)—The entire Southwest is bitterly aroused over the mishman treatment handed out to 561 Porto Rican men, women and children recently brought into this country from Cuba by the Cotton Grower's Association of Arizona. Exsited from their homes by false promises, the Porto Ricans, brought into the United States by the association to work the cotton fields in the Salt River Valley district near Phoenix, are now quartered in the State Fair grounds without shelter or sufficient food following their refusal to work under the conditions imposed on them.
Promises of free transportation, attractive living conditions and fair wages were used to hire the laborers here. Intrad they were charged the cost of transportation, $66.50 a piece, plus the cost of media while on the train. The association demanded that they work out this charge by picking cotton on a piece work basis at a rate less than that paid last year. This the Porto Ricans refused to do, with a result that they were hired into the fair grounds at Phoenix without proper food or shelter in an attempt to force them into submission.

A. & T. College Notes
Greenbosso, N. C. —The formal opening function of the college was a "get-acquainted" meeting held in chapel on September 26, under the direction of Dean McKinney. The program was inclusive; it contained speeches from all the directors in all the departments of the college; each director explaining the purpose and outlook of his department. After the speeches had all been given, President Bluford appeared on the platform and introduced in a formal way all the new teachers. Each one was asked to stand in order that the students might take a look at him. The striking feature at this part of the program was the introduction of two distinguished ladies in the audience; they were Mrs F D Bluford, wife of the president, and Mrs M Cook, wife of Professor Cook, who is head of the French department. This gathering was profitable in that the old and new students had the opportunity of knowing better each other

Bishop Gailor Fewers
Negro Boy Scout Idea
Hot Springs Ark.-Clergymen of the Protestants, Catholic and Jewish Faith, met on a platform here Sunday, September 24, to pay tribute to the Boy Scout movement in America.
Bishop Thomas F. Gailor of the Episcopal Diocese of Tennessee, was to have spoken, but was prevented by illness from attending. In a letter read by Bolton Smith, vice president of the National Council, Bishop Gailor expressed regret at his inability to be present and endorsed a movement to extend the work of the Boy Scouts to Negroes.
"We owe it to our children to see to it that the black people among whom and with whom they are to live and labor, are people with moral standards and efficiency of life and service," he said.
Mr Smith discussed the proposed extension among Negroes. Already, he declared, 38 Negro troops have been organized in Louisville, Ky., Port Arthur and Orange, Tex., and Raleigh N. C., and two others are being formed in Newport, News, Va., and Jacksonville, Fla.
Economic necessity, he said, "clamors for the education of the Negro to make him a more effective farmer, tenant and dweller. For health alone, the speaker continued, scouting would be of great benefit to Negro boys.
He urged that area councils give the question consideration, but cautioned that there are some sertions in which the formation of Negro troops present difficulties and where such extension would necessarily be gradual.

Telephoned By An Elk
"On or about 3:30 p. m., September 15, I received a call and was informed that Albert Watkins died in Harlem Hospital. This information did not come from a nurse or doctor of that institution; it was from some Eik friend of Mr. Watkins, and to a Daughter Eik. I immediately proceeded to the residence of Mrs. Watkins and I informed her of her husband's death, and as an undertaker offered my services. She accepted and requested me to take charge of her husbands' body and prepare it for burial. Then the telegram arrived, collect which I paid and signed for. Without opening the telegram I turned it over to Mrs. Watkins, who after reading turned it over to me. I then asked her to sign it so that it would be my authority to present to the officials at Harlem Hospital."
Lodra Mon Cama Later
"The Sick Committee from Imperial Lodge arrived about 4 p. m., same day, and the chairman began immediately to arrange for the burial and funeral of Mr. Watkins, I did not inform the chairman that I had charge, as I did not think it was any of his business, as the widow gave me charge. On leaving the residence of Mr. Watkins, we all left together, and I went immediately to my office and began to complete the arrangements that I had staited, even to securing the burial permit by transcript and the body from Harlem Hospital. Every cent of expense was borne by me. I did not ask the widow for deposit, nor had I mentioned anything about the expense. All I was concerned in was to see that aid was extended to the stricken family who in the time of need should have only friends, whether Elks or not, to assist them.
Violated No Ethics
"Before concluding, I wish to state that at no time did I violate ethics of the profession and I contend that charge for service would of been as reasonable if not cheaper, than Mr. Saunders. Furthermore, I believe that threats were used to get Mrs. Watkins to consent to have Mr. Saunders handle the funeral, because he was unfinancial, that is according to his due book. Also I was adding strenuously Mrs. Watkins to get relief from the Widow's Pension Burcan this Mr. Saunders is not doing. "I shall be glad to meet any committee or representative of any papers in reference to this regrettable affair and explain to them in detail personality my version. As this business is conducted by me, I shall continue in the future to treat my clientele as in the past, with greatest consideration for their purse and their feelings.

THE NEW YORK AGE
The action of the colored waitress in a New York lunch room in refusing to be an agent in the practice of discrimination against a member of her rate in that place will undoubtedly meet the unanimous commendation of all thinking Negroes of this city. The young women demonstrated conclusively that she at least has racial pride.
But the part the waitress played in the episode didn't draw the admiration of this column nearly so much as did that of her fellow workers who refused to continue at work when they learned that she had been discharged for serving a Negro patron, although none but herself was involved in the affair! They showed group pride, something rather new and foreign with most Negroes. A leaf from the pride book of these humble employees might be advantageously taken by many of the business and professional people of our race.
From the different press reports, one got two versions of the affair. One was that a group of patrons, among whom was William H Lewis, the well known Negro lawyer of Boston, entered a New York coffee shop for lunchme. The head waitress, recognizing Mr. Lewis as a colored man, gave orders to Miss Petis, who was the waitress of the party, not to give him the same service as that given to the rest of the patrons, the lunch room owners didn't want to encourage the patronages of colored people.
The other version was identical in description regarding the make up and entrance of the party. But, according to this narrative, it seems that it was Miss Petis who first recognized Mr. Lewis and not the head waitress, and having known him for some time, she immediately resisted over to the table occupied by his party.
Now, there is no intention on the part of this column to say which account was the accurate one. Neither is there any disposition here to criticise Miss Petis for her actions in the incident, but if the second version was correct, Miss Petis, in the writer's opinion, used extremely good judgment in choosing the party of which Mr. Lewis was a member as the first to be served.
In the first place, she knew, if newspaper accounts were right, that this lunch room does not particularly care to have Negro patronage. Considering the fact that it is in a section of the city in which there are few Negroes, but in which there are many people who suffer from colorophobia because they are recently from the South, and their importance must be demonstrated by objecting to the proximity of black people, it would be business suicide for this lunch room to give the impression that it was impartial to Negro patronage.
Therefore as a waitress in this establishment trying to care to the majority of its patronage, and at the same time endeavoring to unhold racial pride, it seems to the writer that Miss Petis fell down miserably on the job.
To begin, what was the idea of getting excited about Mr. Lewis? He is nothing more than a successful lawyer. He has made no contribution to race progress other than personal achievement, and the fact that he was the first and only Negro to hold the position of Assistant Attorney General under a Republican Federal Administration.
This column could name a dozen or more Negro residents of New York who, as far as racial achievement is concerned, could measure up to the Boston attorney in more ways than one. So why shall this attorney should get excited because his entrance, thereby making his presence conscious, showed poor judgement on her part. Furthermore no sensible person wants attention drawn to himself by the actions of an employed.
Another phase of the incident which calls for consideration, aside from the color question, is, did the waitress overlook patrons, who had been waiting to be served, to reach the Lewis table? Our newspaper account carried this implication. If this were true the waitress disregarded the generally established rule of "first come, first served," which is the system of every successful business, whether the system is religiously followed or not.
I am not inferring, of course, that the circumstances mentioned are what really took place. I am merely relating a hypothetical aside of what the second version suggested.
The great trouble with most colored employees in places which do not have many colored patrons is that they serve these patrons in a noticeable way, or they ignore them in the same way.
For instance, take the Pullman service. The number of colored people who travel in Pullman's during the course of a year are practically negligible. So when the average Pullman porter has a Negro passenger on his car, he either forgets that he owes this passenger any service at all, or he forgets all the other passengers in his anxiety to serve this particular one. It is from one extreme to the other. Both are bad.
The most sensible way to act if cases where there are both white and colored patrons is, according to the writer's belief, to make no distinction. Treat them all alike. Forget the race to which the patron belongs, whether it is red, white, yellow or black.
In Miss Petie case, she had her nerve and her pride with her even if she did leave her discretion as home.

Fert Pierce, Fla.
Fort Pierce, Fla. - The people of Fort Pierce, the Sunrise City, and Saint Louis County, have much to be thankful for. While the hurricane which swept Miami and the lower East Coast cities of Florida caused considerable loss of property and life, the people of Fort Pierce were safe and unharmed.
We have noticed since the storm that some of the buildings of the town have been condemned. We regret this very much and can't understand just why our folks won't make the necessary repairs to the buildings which have been made unsafe by the storm.
Through the quick action of the officers and members of St Paul's A. M. E. Church, the building was made safe and all valables removed so that in case the storm struck it nothing would be lost.
The Odd Fellows Hall was destroyed by fire and everything that belonged to the lodge was lost. Emory Pierce's house was destroyed of the same fire. Cititums are contributing to him as I lost all his belongings. His family was saved but all their property was de stroyed.
The Rev C B Johnson pastor of Mt Olive Baptist Church, was at his post last Sunday to the delight of all. Everyone was glad to welcome him back after his absence of six weeks made necessary by illness.

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

The voices of girls rang out in song and in laughter in their club rooms and punch was served in the lobby. A more serious note was struck in the Girl Reserve Installation service in the auditorium. Through the symbolism of lighted candles the club officers of last year gave over to new officers their duties and responsibilities. After the installation, gaiety reigned afresh to the strains of Prof E.W. Blake's orchestra as everybody gathered in the auditorium for the dancing which was the grand finale. We are grateful indeed to Prof Blake, and his orchestra, who BFF HFF quoted at the opening and who frumished most enjoyable music. A card sent from Belgium has come to us from Mrs J W Brown, who is traveling abroad.

A GOOD NAME
Over ten years ago, when I opened my derm
office here in Harton, I set out to establish
GOOD NAME, because "good name is rather
to be chosen than great riches."
I succeeded by placing my heart

my patients.
