Mitchell War With Goff It was a generally accepted policy of the Coidge Administration to limit Negro appointments to one person per State. The able and unrestrained Recorder of Deeds, Froe well filled the West Virginia quota in the 1924 primaries. Mr. Froe supported it in her defeat; the unsuccessful campaign of Senator D. Garfield in State. If the election campaign Froe worked for Goff. Mr. Charles E. Mitchell was with Senator Goff in the primary. The led many to believe that the Gov influence would be effective in eliminating Froe and clearing the way for Mitchell to get the West Virginia race-appointment allotment and there are many who still contend that such explains the reason for the attempt to have Froe superceded her with an Illinois or a Maryland man last Spring. Mr. Froe was re-appealed: No American Negro Wanted. II Secretary Kellogg's Minnesota got four major appointments (certainly not Negroes), surely West Virginia with its formidable Negro office is entitled to more than one. No Negro appointed "Hence Mr. Mitchell's friends got busy; they scorned the breastworks, with the Haytian portfolio as the objective They called upon influence the posessor of which, in the language of the streets, "should come through." This possessor did—with the information that the Republic of Havana does not want an American Negro or its capital as "Minister Plenipotentiary, etc., etc." And, forasmuch as it would be gratuitous violation of long "established diplomatic usages to name a person as Minister to a county which doesn't want one of that person's race, what is there for the Administration to do? Nothing, assuredly!" If Hayagi doesn't want life he could not be sent to China, berna, Guatemala, Patagonia, Romania, Costa Rica, Equatoria, gora, Wyoming or Leavenworth! And that's that. So neither Mr. Mitchell, who has just returned from a world's visit with Mrs. Mitchell, nor any other affine, honorable colored person. Dr. Perry W. Cheney of 200 Wes 135th street is in trouble again, this time, as the result of an auto accident near the corner of 145th Street and Eighth avenue Sunday afternoon, December 26. Dr. Cheney was driving north on 145th street when his car collided with that of H. Pinchus of 1410 Wythe place, the Bronx. The two drivers stepped out and argued, then flips were struck. Soon a white, passessy joined Pinchus, and a cooped man took the doctor's side. In a few minutes there was a free for all right with several of each race in the fences. According to, witnesses John Torsey, stabbed driver of 1314 Riverside Drive, was one of those who took a hand and then he struck Dr. Cheney, the doctor who have drawn attention to the abused Torsey, the side puncturing his lung.

When the case came up before Magistrate Rosebloom in the Heights Court on Monday, the doctor was released in $4,000 bail and the case will be given a hearing on January 5. According to 165 friends, several white men attacked Dr. Cheney after he had gotten out of his car, and he used his knife, in self defense. About this same time last year Dr. Cheney was in court. He had one of his former patients, an alleged friend, Mrs Elaine Douglas, arrested on a charge of felonious assault, saying she had threatened his life with a gun. Mrs. Douglas filed a counter charge against the doctor, alleging intimate relations, and that the doctor had borrowed $8,000 from her, which he did not return to a civil action for the return of this money, a jury awarded her a verdict for the full amount, and this verdict was up by the Appellate Division of the Court of Appeals. Harlene Hospital reports that Torrey was stabbed is not in a serious condition and that he will probably be discharged within the week. Happy With Big Christmas Dinners. Editor Fred Moore In Center.

Keep up the good work, my friend, and history will someday record, that Fred-R. Moore was in reality a St. Patrick in Harlem—New York City. Wishing you continued health and success. (From $ _{0} $ The Star of Zion, Charlotte, N. C.) The evolution of The New York Age from a negligible sheet of circulation and influence to its present high estate is an interesting study. T. Thomas Fortune made its columns bristle with pungent and pertinent editorial comment, and first brought The Age to national prominence and distinction. Fred R. Moore, the present editor, wields a facile and forceful pen, and easily holds The Age in the front rank of Negro journals. The Age is the most eagerly sought after among all our exchanges, and the Star of Zion its older sister, fe- licitates it upon its fortieth anniversary, as upon the remarkable strides it has made in mechanical as well as in literary improvements.

Mrs. Ford had just entered the hall on her way to visit her sister, who has an apartment on the first floor. She screamed, but the man ran to the street, and made his getaway. It is said that the parse contained a large sum of money. This is about the fourth time that wives have been robbed and parses guarded from them in that same neighborhood during the past month. The parses contained from two cents to considerable sums. One woman, who had saved about four hundred dollars earned by frozing in a laundry was robbed by two men. One of the men came to the apartment of the woman in the same 15th street neighborhood, and said that he wanted to rent a room for his sister. He said he liked the room and would return later with his sister. He returned, accompanied by another man, who held a gun on her while the first man went to the bed and took her life, saving from under the mattress. The police advise that people cannot be too careful about carrying large sums of money, or admitting strangers to their apartments.

C German Visitor In Harlem, Piloted By Police Officials, Writes German Paper Uncomplimentary Story About The Negro Article In Munich Illustrated Press Shows Signs of Studied Attempt To Disparage Race Through Emphasizing A Distorted Idea Of Life In Harlem After Nightfall Just how the Negro in New York is apt to be regarded by the visiting European who tours New York under official escort is shown by an article published in the December 1st, 1926, "Munchner Illustrierte Presser (Munich Illustrated Press), Germany, written by Dr Alfred Ralfield, who was one of a party of German visitors in New York sometime during the past fall, and who was escorted through Harlem by a group of high police officials. The party stopped at corner of avenue and 138th street, where Traffic Officer Reuben Carter is on daily, duty, and Dr. Haffield took photographs of Officer Carter, of the west sidewalk on block from 135th to 136th streets, of a group of colored children at play, and a group of colored laborers at midday lunch. As an evidence of the menu attitude with which Dr. Haffield garbled these citizens of a country whose guest he was, literal translations of the inscriptions printed under the photographs iff the German party are given. Officer 'Cartier,' a splendid tie of physical manhood, standing 6 feet, 2 inches, with hand upraised directing the never-ending traffic at this busy carer, is labelled: 'The Black Traffic Policeman—he has the self-consciousness of his white comrade.' Five colored labours, in overalls and rubber boots, seated on knees and huge water-pipes, sitting there on mealt inspires the next: 'Alto, hard work it's good to rest—also one for the Negro!' The photo showing the slewalker includes a number of men and women, as is always, the case of this corner, and conspicuous at age of nearest curb to the picture table was someone's little pet white space. So the German doctor describes it group "A white dog among the black." The fourth picture is that of four attractive little, kids, white bright-framed faces, who are enjoying themselves propelling a homemade box car along the pavement, and the visitors try to be facctions by saugn! "So youn and already black!" The test of the article, "Das New yorker. Stadtvierd Harlem—Dl Niger-Metropole the Welt," ("Thi Harlem District of New York—Thi Negro Metropolis of the World") is written in a vairt in comports with the inscriptions under the picture. For the translation of this article The Age is indebted to Mrs. Catherine A. Lathamer, assistant librarian of the West 135th street branch, New York Public Library, in charge of the Department of Micro History and literature. The article reads as follows: "Northerly from flanked by elevated highs by dirty Italy and by the busy Y eastern Europe, metropolis, between streets, there has a course of about the most interesting place Harlem is no oracle Every larger city is a district, so there are about that.

When there is dancing, it looks as though a hundred bodies are coiled together in the smallest possible space. But here the 'Charleston' is brutal enough to be genuine." It is an interesting story as to how this particular publication came to business. Sir William Manning, visiting an exhibition at the water, and examining the paintings they had chanced to see in the illustrator's journal to the lime away, passes aside to his owner, the corner of the fifth street and the museum, he sees over Other Cars.

Those present regarded this as evidence of the great care with which agents and medical examinations alike had selected their prospects and risks. It was a further tribute to the Executive officers who had weeded out the thousands of applicants every undesirable risk. Less than a week after the meeting on Tuesday, December 21, the commissioned telephone notice that Theophilus G. Cooper for Forest avenue, Englewood, New Jersey, insured for $2,000 had died Sunday, December 19. A representative of the company was immediately sent out with death proof papers to be filled out and completed. At 9:30 a. m., the papers were returned to the home office along with the death certificate.

WILSON, Prost Atlanta, Ga.—Many students in colleges throughout the South are planning to submit papers on "Justice in Race Relations" in the competition recently announced by the Commission on Interracial Cooperation, according to a statement from the Commission's headquarters. Nearly a hundred young men and women from more than fifty institutions have already written to the Commission, expressing a desire to enter papers and requesting further information and suggestions. In addition, many professors have requested the information for members of their classes and are encouraging them to enter the competition. The head of the department of sociology in one of the big state universities writes that all the members of one of his classes are goin gto compete. From present indications it is expected that the number of papers submitted will far exceed those of previous years.

TO TEST JIM CROW LAW A suit of farreaching importance was announced as being instituted last week under the auspices of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, to test the validity of the Florida Jim Crow law, which prohibits the use by colored passengers of railroad accommodations set apart for whites within that state. The case is that of Mrs. Bianche S. Brookins who was forced to leave a Pullman sleeper at Palatka last July, was imprisoned and made to pay a fine of five hundred dollars and costs. In her complaint drawn by Arthur Garfield Hayes, a well-known attorney of New York City, Mrs. Brookins charges that on July 18, at Palatka, Fla., she was on a Pullman sleeper, on which she had purchased through accommodations from New York to Orlando, Fla., when a conductor forced her to leave the train because of Florida's "Jim Crow" Law. The writing of this letter is no easy task. I should much prefer that I did not have to be done, were I to heliate, were I to fail to carry on, were I to be ill, if is the only medium through which I may reach you. I must convey to you the impression your needless and needless use of the term 'nigger' made upon the last night. Were you a 'Negro you' could readily draw your own picture of the coffee shop, gratious you would have had up upon you after your enjoyment of an evening of snoozes of inimitable quality. Her Pullman was attached to the Havana Special, operated by the Atlantic Coast Line, Mrs Brookins states, and when the train reached Jacksonville a conductor demanded that she leave the Pullman. She declined to do so, and the following day, at Palatka, officers were summoned who forcibly ejected her. Mr. Hayes declared that this was a case of inhuman treatment, with which all who are conversant with the jimrow practices of Southern railroads will agree. He further claimed that since Mrs. Brookins was a passenger in interstate commerce and therefore not subject to the provisions of the Florida law, the defendants, the Atlantic Coast Line and the Pullman Company, violated their contracts as common carriers in their treatment of Mrs. Brookins Cooperating with him in this case is Clarence Darrow of Chicago, whose services in the Detroit defence case, will long be remembered. Damages are demanded by Mrs. Brookins on four causes of action, aggregating twenty-five thousand dollars. The importance of this action is in the effort to define the responsibility of common carriers in keeping their contracts in interstate commerce, despite conflicting state laws. The Interstate Commerce Commission has studiously avoided a ruling on this subject, although it is empowered to deal with passenger matters as well as freight. It is for the courts of the United States to decide whether, a state law can override a contract entered into by a common carrier and legal under the United States regulation of railroads. There would seem to be no equity in allowing the carrier to charge passengers for freightless accommodations and then neglecting or refusing to turn them because of a law of the state. It is time that a court of competent jurisdiction should be called upon to decide this matter. Mr. is of sufficient importance to the travelling public, to justify the action instigated by the National Association. I had gone to the Biltmore Hotel to the annual bar dinner of the New York County Lawyers' Association, in high spirits.

That accustomed that southern Senator of abusing it? HEAVEN IS WHERE YOU FIND IT. In the Opportunity magazine, for December, Kelly Miller asked the question, Where is the Negro's Heaven? and then proceeded to answer it to his own satisfaction by locating it in Washington. His initial reason for this designation was attributed to a remark made by Senator John Sherman of Ohio, many years ago before Emancipation, based upon the exceptional advantages and advancement of the colored people of the national capital. Although Washington has now fallen from the first to third or fourth place as to its Negro population, New York having the first Prof Miller stoutly maintains that the Washington Negro occupies a unique place in the scheme of race relationship, which gives its group a peculiar and far-reaching social significance. Prof Miller dismisses the claims of Harlem to be the Negro Heaven by saying that the two hundred thousand Negroes of New York in the midst of six million whites have no more social significance than a single apple in a half bushel basket. He says that the metropolitan city plods its way unconscious of the relative handful of Negroes and unconcerned about them. He falls entirely to note the fact that this is because they are a part and parcel of the great web of city life and movement. I am happy it was my good fortune to be present. No power in stored in the spoken word to make me sow my head. I write only to register my disappointment of you. The test of a man's greatness is, I believe, found in the measure respect he entertains for his fellowmen. Sincerely yours. Editor of The New York Age I am very much, in favor of the Negro race patronizing their own in every possible way. As our ministers from the pulpit urge us to patronize our own instead of spending our money with the other race. But when our business people segregate against their own, how much more should we expect the whites to segregate against them. Last summer during my vacation in Newport, R.I. I was in college, and I had to take the hair after套着 my hair and coat. I insured the price. The reply was, We charge you, nothing, we cater only to white people. What are we to ask when confrum During the night they stopped at the hut of a Negro eight miles from West Point and awakened the occupants. Demanding that they be allowed to search the house, they were, admitted, and found that the Negro boy, Ransom, aged 14 years old, was the only male occupant of the cabin, Ramon from man in the arch of jungle in the north of the plaza, according to the story told to the governor's office by the sheriff. In fact, Ransom held the lamp, of the white man, could take their search under the beds, and through the cabin. When every corner of the Negro cabin had been examined, the man wanted was not found, and the gang was about to depart, when one of the gang turned to the man to mark: "We're just got to get one niger, anjaw, and fired on the Negro, killing him." The sheer it has the names of two members of the party and they have given him the name of the man who they say, fired the shot which killed the boy. The governor has been reward for the arrest of the suspect. But there the story ends—not. Whether it will have a sequel is another matter! Feeding The Infant The baby should be fed mother's milk. The infant must by his mother has ten times as much of living food as $feet \cdot milk$ or any other mother's. The baby should be fed regularly—every 3 or 4 hours as your doctor advises and on one or not at night. The important thing is regularity and not every time bath cries. He may be giving because his stomach is upset you feel him. Baby's mouth should be wash carefully after feeding. How many parents; unwittingly harm 'their baby' because they insist upon plague, with them after nursing! Mores--do` not` permit anybody to play with baby immediately after feeding Let him sleep. Regular feeding bowed by sleepy will prevent indigestion. Perhaps it never causes indigestion that the baby may suffer anack of indigestion, as well as voul.

Foremost of these was HRKry Wills, who died late too long in his watchful waiting campaign for a bout with Dempsey. Advancing age and idleness were responsible for Wills' decision. Jack Sharkey and his subsequent retirement from boxing also gave the rise and fall of Tiger Flowers. After seven years of competition, Flowers won the middleweight championship of the world, only to his little talent from him before the year was out. It is unlikely that he will give in at return. Both with Minkey Walker, the present champion, and the tool is getting along in years, his retirement is expected. In 1927, another prominent fighter of the colored race that started off the decline in 1926 was Chick Sugar bahamweight champion of New England. After getting almost to the top of the ladder, Sugar was beaten in New York. the toes get along in years, his retirement is expected in 1947, another prominent fighter of the colored race that started on the decline in 1926 was Chick Suggs battantweight champion of New England. Affetting almoar to the top of the ladder, Suggs was beaten in New York. Anny Graham, and later in Boston by Honeybay Finegan, like Willis Flowers, he made money and saved it, and is also expected to retire be 1927 to begin professional baseball also experienced a bad year. The breakdown and remission of Andrew Huba Foster, founder and president of the National Baseball League (the name given the western professionals) was a sory to that organization. Internal strife and the withdrawal of the Lincoln team from the Eastern Colored League has so crippled this organization that a mooted question, whether they can survive the 1927 season, Had the John Connors lived, he would have been prepared to put a team in the air to take the place left vacant by the Lincolns but since his death no one deserves of entering the field with a team from New York. Denfert Hepburn is the only national champion the colored race has left in athletics, partly because of the failure of Cecil Cook to defend his 440 title. With the possible exception of Gus Moore, the year saw the delgation of no outstanding colored track star. Basketball, the principal winter sport in New York, advanced very little ring. 1926. The old athletic clubs—St. Christopher, Alpha and the Spartan eld. Club—which populated the sport, are less active than ever and the aspects of their reviving the activities of former years are not bright. For collegiate athletics the year was not so discouraging, and yet there are few performances that stand out. The past football season was perhaps most successful in attendance and general interest of any in several years ago, with the return of Lincoln into membership of the C. I. A. A. 1927, should be brighter. Because of the 1928 Olympic games, the outlook in track athletics for 1927 bright, but in other branches of sport there is no telling what the new ear holds for colored athletics. It is not likely that George Godfrey, once considered as a heavyweight championship contender, will he long remembered as a fighter but through his work in "Old Ironsides" he will get a ranking in forefront of colored motion picture actors which will cause him to be remembered for years to come. In this super-Paramount production now playing at the Rivoli Theatre, Godfrey is cast as the colored cook on the bark "Bather," but as the story unfolds it is found that he has one of the principal male roles. With Wallace Berry, George Bancroft and Charles Farrell, he performs some feats of strength and daring which do much to make the picture the thrilling-success it is. The writer saw "Old Ironsides" during the Christmas holidays and never before had he seen a prizefighter make so big a success as a motion picture actor, not excepting the screen work of Gene Tunney and Jack Dempsey. The author, Lawrence Stallings, and the director, James Cruse, have reasons to be proud of their discovery of Godfrey, and it is expected they will take care of him in their next big production. The motion picture public should not miss seeing this important historical --- Marion Miller Breaks Own Record for 70-Yd.

The two actors, the same yellow shirt, the same soft hat, with fanny band. They typified MOVIEland. Many more, dressed in similar fashion, were passing into the big pavilion. The similarity of clothing is a signpost of Hollywood. It extends into the studio management and to a large extent into the pictures produced—this similarity of uniformity. The producers are constantly fighting to win the Mary Pickford is one of them. Miss Pickford never tries to do what is in vogue at the time. She never does a certain type of story because it, seems the "thing" to do. Mary Pickford picks her sereen vehicles, as carefully as a man, picks his first automobile. "First the story must be clean and wholesome, entertaining but interesting old and young must be interesting old and young must be interesting old and young must be filling these requirements, and is what is known as good "screen material" she is very likely to accept it. And it is not at all necessary that this type of story may seem 'fit' in the present. "Sparrows," Miss, Pickford's great epic of the Southern swamp, which tells the story totally different from any, of her various vehicles. Yet it, combines laughs and tears, thrills and suspense, and it is, mighty, fine entertainment.

It is here after years of separation that the brothers meet in strange circumstances, and from then on the tale unfolds in an amazing colorful and dramatic manner.

The story is set in Drobly Dinar, Margaret Livingston, Alphonis Ethier, Pat Harman and many others. The story is from the port of that much loved author — Peter B. Kyne, J. G. Hawke wrote the adaptation and J. Grubb Alexander the continuity. At The Lincoln Theatre At The Lincoln Theatre Football's in the air. Don't you see those pigskins sail?

EUGENE MARS MARTIN, VIOLINIST AND DIRECTOR MARTIN-SMITH SCHOOL, DIES FROM HEART DISEASE IN EARLY MORNING Just on the threshold of what promised to be a notable musical career, embracing also the carrying on of the splendid institution founded by his late father, Eugene Mars Martin, violinist, director of the Martin-Smith Music School, just past his 22nd birthday, was stricken with a fatal heart attack that took him without warning or premonition, putting an abrupt stop to his physical activities Just a year and ten months ago, young Martin slipped away from family and friends and was married to the pretty young sweetheart of his boyhood days, Miss Bertha Price, and this union had been blessed with two sweet little babies. The youngest one was just two weeks old, and about 8 o'clock on the morning of Thursday, December 23, the proud young father-arose and went to light the gas range that milk might be heated for his infant's matutinal nourishment Engaged in the performance of this task of love, there came, like the flash of lightning from a clear sky, the sable angel's bolt of death, and Eugene Mars Martin had ended his activities here to enter into the sphere of celestial endeavor Born in 1904, Eugene started the study of music at the age of three, his father being his tutor. Persistent application carried him on his appointed way, until he had graduated from the Damrosch Institute of Musical Art in 1923, and from the DeWitt Clinton High School. From his early boyhood days, his playing of the violin had attracted the interest of critical music hearers, who recognized the breadth and scope of an unusual talent in his offerings. This promise was coming into its full fruition with his physical maturity. His father, David Irwin Martin sr, who founded the Martin-Smith School, having died in August 1923, it was a becoming act by the board of directors to name young Eugene as the one best fitted to take up the work his father had laid down. So he was placed in the responsible position of director and well did he measure up to the task. Enthusiastic and energetic, he bent every energy to perpetuating and developing the work, and it is probably to this ambition that his early death is due. For, according to report, it is said that his physician had warned him some months ago to curb his endeavors and slacken the tension of his efforts. And his failure to heed the warning has brought its consequent result. Death occurred in his apartment in the Martin-Smith School building, 139 West 136th street. The funeral service was held Sunday, December 20, from St Philip's P E Church, the Rev Hutchens C Bishop rector, officiating, and interment was in Woodford Cemetery, where his father is buried. He is survived by the widow, Mrs Bertha Price Martin, and two babies, his mother, Mrs Gertrude H Martin, a brother, David Irwin Martin 2nd, and a sister, Miss Gertrude F Martin. --- The outstanding feature of Mon day night's radio program was the singing of Paul Robeson, accompanied by Lawrence Brown, as soloist on the Philharmonic Orchestra program, directed by Henry Hadley.

A rare basso among annuals." Mr. Robeson lent much staid dur- dance to his performance.

WIZ's microphone was also great to the vocal efforts of Lawrence Brown communist and two Spirituals sung by M. Robeson.

ACTIVITIES AMONG UNION MUSICIANS By PERCIVAL OUTRAM The colored musicians of Harlem are now being forced to learn and follow the principle of discipline and the merits of organization, a lack of which has for years been their holdback and undoing. Local 802, A F. M., has appointed Mr. M. H Minton as delegate to the organization, and among his duties is the right to attend all engagements played by members, examine their financial cards, and see that all the men engaged in the job are members of 802, or properly affiliated through a transfer card. This has long been a burning question in Harlem, as musicians from other towns, not unionized, would drop into New York and get work to the exclusion of union members so entitled. Leaders would hire such non-union men repeatedly, ignoring the rules, and causing endless dissatisfaction among union members fully qualified to play their work. The non-union members would write back to his home town and his musician friends would come over to New York. This threatened to swamp local talent. Complaints were so loud and numerous that the president of Local 802 (Mr. Canavan), as mentioned above, appointed Mr. Minton. Having known Mr. Minton for upwards of ten years, I believe a better selection could not have been made for a fair, square and impartial officer one who will do his work to the interest of both vides, and maintain the respect and dignity due to the office of delegate. His most rabid detractors will concede to Mr. Minton's honesty and fearlessness, essential attributes to his office. He has caused many musicians to become financial in the union, and has also caused many who have been working regularly to join the Local, as leaders who used to employ them gave them warning to "get right," as they, the Mr. Minton is the first colored man in New York to be appointed to such a post. And, strange as it may seem, some narrow-visioned leaders have tried to ignore his authority until brought to their senses by union officials. They were told that Mr. Minton "was appointed by the union, and would be backed by all the power of the Union and to the last dollar in the treasury." This statement was made to a leader in a Harlem hall, with the closing admonition: "Now tell him (Mr. Minton), what he wants to know, and then "Mr. Wise-Guy" had to, in the presence of the official, give Minton the information previously refused. Yet, we are yelling for our rights! Can you beat it? This is a Season of Fellowship and Good Feeling. Brother Musicians, let us unite, not only for this, but for all time, striving for Unity, Harmony in every sense, and Good Will towards each other. If you cannot Boost, don't Knock Encourage your fellow workers. Williamston, Mass. Williamston, Mass.-Miss Susan Morgan spent the holidays with friends in Springfield.
