MRS. MALONE FORCED BY COURT TO GIVE UP $84,000 IN BONDS A REAL HOME PAPER The New York Age Goes Into More Homes Direct Than A-1-Other Paper Published CARRIED OWNERSHIP The New York Age Claiming All Will Bring Illiteracy Rentry BK, LACT, Book Poro College Tragedy' Receivership Hearing Is Postponed To Give Chance For Defense Lawyers To Prepare Case Judge Orders Additional $84,000 Assets Put Into Receiver's Custody, And Latter's Bond Increased To $150,000—Hearing On Feb.2 St. Louis, Mo.—Scene I in the "Poro College Tragedy," opening in the Circuit Court, with Judge M. Hartman as stage director, on Friday, January 21, was a brief affair. Both of the leading stars, Mrs. Annie Pope-Turnbo Malone, who is cast for the defendant's role, and her husband, Professor Aaron T. Malone, the plaintiff, remained off stage, as did the principal supporters, the MASSACHUSETTS' COLORED WOMAN SEEKS $25,000 AS HEART BALM IN BREACH OF PROMISE SUIT AGAINST WHITE NEIGHBOR This scene was to have had to do principally with the application filed by Husband Malone for the appointment of a permanent receiver to conduct the business of Horp College, in which he claims a fifty share. But the court the importer counsel for Wife Malone footlights and declared that his principals were not yet familiar with their lines and needed more time for study. The judge agreed. The next reply in Air One will be given on Wednesday, February 2 in the same auditorium. Interest at Fever Heat. Interest in this case is at fever heat, principally because of the big financial interest involved. Indication of this is seen in a statement trade to the court on Friday by the registrar that one story of $8,000, consisting of bond bills with the certificate of the books as the personal property of Mrs. Makoe, had not been turned over to him. The court ruled that as the pending court action is for the purpose of establishing the claim that this a partnership business, the $8,000 would have to be turned over to the receiver. In the meantime, the judge increased the receiver's bond from $50,000 to $100,000. The latter official, Conrad Paeben, a lawyer, took charge of the Poro business on the 20th, undersigned Mrs. Malone in authority. He controls the daily income, and one of his duties is to ensure payment "order against all outstanding checks already issued by Mrs. Malone." Defense Asked Postponement E. P. Griffin, of the Nagel and Kirkby law firm, counsel for Mrs. Malone, asked for, the adjournment, giving as a basis for the request, the fact that Mrs. Malone was sent of the city when the suit was filed hand, had not been served in time to permit preparation of the case. The receivership suit was the only matter to be considered, as the companion suit for divorce, filed by Mr. Malone at same time, will probably no: be heard in the Court of Domestic Relations until about March or April. There is a sharp and clearcut diversity of opinion here as regards the two suits and the relations of Mr. and Mrs. Malone. In filing his suit, for a receiver, Mr. Malone claims a 50-50 interest in the business, asserting that the greatest development of Poro College came after his marriage to its founder, through the new vision and inspiration furnished by him. He claims that all of the realty holdings were acquired after the marriage, and that he became general manager of the company, with full power of attorney, following this, the company was cowarded as the Poro College Co., with 500 acres, and as Mr. Malone claims that his wife turned over 497 of these shares to him, retaining only one each for herself, her private secretary, Maudelle, Murray, and her nephew, Elwep Pryor. Action Was Unusual An unusual aspect of the case, according to lawyers of both races, was the precipitate action of Judge Hartman in appointing a receiver without the formality of a hearing, and without even notifying Mrs. Malone's lawyers that such action was contemplated. A later announcement to the offer: that Judge Hartman has named S. M Garner, a local Negro lawyer, as attorney for Receiver Paechen, and that another Negro lawyer is to be Cambridge, Mass.—A breach, of promis sut for $25,000 has been fill- ed here by Daisy J. Turner of Lex- ington Mass, against Joseph V. Bol- nay, white also of Lexington. In the complaint Miss Turner der- tails her cell as 'a single colored Those claiming knowledge of the case, intimate the probability of a permanent receiver, with the litigation dragging along for three or four years, to the consequent lessening of the company's financial strength and prestige. It is feared that the drain upon the company's treasury through fees to receiver, lawyers and court expenses, will mean the final disintegration of the business as a race enterprise and the ultimate stepping in of some white capitalist as its owner. The lawyers in the case are most eminent, and their retaining fees are heavy. Mr. Malone's Jawyer, Edward Forstall, is called the "Under Coyer Boas," politically, of St. Louis County, and referred to as a maker of judges and other officials. He has a reputation for being a strong critic of collectivism, and siffs against large firing for considerable sums of which he has taken as a rule fifty- and cent for his fee. Politically Allied. The judge and receiver are both allied with, Foristir's political faction and two years ago, it is recalled, Judge Hartman approved the action of a park commissioner in Jim crowning Negro golf players on a public golf course. Mrs. Malone's lawyer, Charles Nagel is of a high class type, and was recently appointed by President to the city council on a governmental commission. He was in New York when the case was called on Friday. Interest in the case is general, among both races. It has been a surprise to many white people to discover that a business of such large proportions was being conducted here by Negroes. Some of these appear to be of the opinion that it is too big for the race, and say that this proceeding brought by Professor Malone will spell the end of a race institution; others however, are favorable, Malone to win, saying that she alone built up the business that Malone came here penniless and has done nothing since the new building was erected. Narcotic Squad Men Cut By Alleged Dope Sellers Acting on a tip that dope was being sold in Harlem, Federal Narcotic Agent Adrasius Snedaker and Detective Milton Moffet of the Police Narcotic Squad, waited on the corner, of 131st street and Lenox avenue on Monday evening. Federal Inspectors Clarke and Nelson and Detective Buckley patrolled the neighborhood. About 9 o'clock, Snedaker, suspecting two men of being dope peddlers, spoke to them and dickered for a purchase. He was told that he might buy some cocaine on the third floor of 31 West 131st street. He followed them and when they got to the hallway, he flashed his badge. In the fight that followed Snedaker received a broken leg and scalp wounds. Detective Moffet reached the scene of the battle and 'was cut with a knife, as he blocked the escape of one of the alleged peddlers. The Inspectors and detectives who were patrolling the neighborhood ran to the rescue of Moffet and Snedaker. The prisoners described themselves as Thomas Martin, 25, of 102 West 131st street and Edward Peacho, 24 of 69 West 135th street. woman in a neighborhood of white folk." Bolain cultivated her friendship and promised to marry, her but has failed to carry, out his agreement, all her alleges. The defendant entered a general denial. 1 years ago in January 1959 the work was started down the Green Bay Hill section of the city. The university was a large institution. The university was in 1926 when the various New York Associations, were united into a Metropolitan organization, each branch an autonomous unit, but with one Board of Directors, the City Board, supervising the entire work. The branch for colored women grew with a rapidity that necessitated several changes in location. The first move was to 353rd street, but the uptown population migration influenced a second move, this time to the occupancy of two residence houses on West 132nd street, between Lenox and Seventh avenues. New Building's Put Up. The increasing demands upon the facilities were so insistent that, it was finally realized that only a building specially planned and equipped would enable the organization to adequately develop as a helpful agency in the rapidly growing Haitian community. Mrs. Cecelia Cahaini Saunders, as executive secretary of the branch, laid the needs of the work before the City Board and the splendid building now housing the work on West 137th street was soon in readiness. The need for a residence house for girls and women was at first met by the purchase of the building at south-west corner of 137th street and Seventh avenue. But almost from the Noble Sissle Forced To Pay Mardo Brown Judgment For Salary Noble Sissle, through Attorney Solomon Goodman, 1560 Broadway, has agreed to pay J. Mardo Brown, client of Myles A. Paige, attorney, about $400 back pay for services as a member of the cast of "Chocolate Daniels" in 1925. Brown was a member of the cast of "Chocolate Daniels" on May 9, 1925, but was not paid his salary. He sued and the case came up September 24, 1925, in the Seventh District Municipal Court and an examination was ordered. Sissle failed to appear for examination in City Court and an order was issued for him to show why he should not be arrested. Failing to appear an order for his arrest Mr. Sissle was out of the city for awhile and was not until December 31, 1926, that the order for arrest was executed. At that time, Mr. Paige had a sheriff arrest Sissle as the actor was in the middle of his act on the stage of Loew's Stile. Theatre. He was taken before the City Court and was found guilty of contempt of court and fined the amount of the judgment and costs. He pleaded a bankruptcy release and was ordered to produce his release in court. On January 24, Mr. Sissle produced a bankruptcy release, but this was held insufficient reason for his failure. Mr. Sissle was improperly scheduled. His anpeal, failing Mr. Sissle, through his attorney, wrote a letter to Mr. Paige asking that a bill for the amount of the judgment be rendered, saping that it would be promptly paid. Lawyer, Miss L. Perry, Browlyn Lawyer, Is Writing Hebrew Grammar Ruthie Perry, the many-sided lawyer and Yale graduate, who strokes half a dozen languages and is a Hebrew by adoption, is writing a Hebrew grammar. It will be issued in three months, "Appently who will reply it two hours a day will be able to speak Hebrew, in three months," said Perry. "That I guarantee." "The Bible says that Hebrew is the language of heaven and how will anybody be able to talk to God unless he knows Hebrew." Mr. Perry says he is going abroad to live in France. "Look out, for the French or they will get all your money" is friend advised. "No, I will make money there," he said, and if I finger to the desert of Sahara I will gather up the sand and sell it back again to the natives. Firemen's Lives In Danger As 127th St. House Stairs Cave In Fireman Thomas Enright was injured and a half dozen other members of Engine Company 27 had narrow escapes when a stairway on which they were at work between the third and fourth floor of 310 West, 127th street collapsed during a fire Monday, January 24. The firemen with their lines of hose fell to the third floor and were found buried under debris. They extricated themselves. Enright was bruised and cut and he suffered internal injuries. He was taken to his home, 5 Perry street. The fire wrecked apartments on the second, third and fourth floors. Morris Finney Falls To Death In Detroit Fire Detroit, Mich.-Morris Finney of 2034 Elm Wood street, died recently of injuries from a fall. While working at the Henry Ford Automobile Construction Company, a fire broke out. Descending by means of a ladder to the lower floor to escape the flames, Mr. Finney lost his balance and fell. He never regained consciousness. Hayes Promoted To Infantry Captaincy Jefferson City, Mo.-Arthur P. Hayes of Washington, D. C., professor of Military Science and Tactics at Lincoln University this city, took his cath of office in the University Chapel, January 17, as captain in the Infantry reserve. Captain Hayes who has seen service in the regular army in the Philippines and on the Mexican border, was formerly assistant professor at Tuskegee Institute, Ala. A reception was tendered the new captain at the University. 3 Fortune Tellers Are Found Guilty Their self-affirmed powers of penetrating the future falling to identify their "customer" as Detective William Hunter, of the West 123rd street station, three gypsy women, were arrested, and found fortune well in Tuesday by Magistrate Tell in Washington Heights Court. The women gave their names, as Mary Carahock, of 2781 Eighth avenue, Mary Mitchell of 552 Lenox avenue, and Rose Stokes, of 2128 Seventh avenue. PATROLMEN HAROLD PEACE, MARTIN RHODES CHARLES WILLIAMS AWARDED HONORS BY COMMISSIONER McLAUGHLIN FOR GOOD WORK C. S. MORRIS JR. SUED FOR COUNSEL FEE BY ATTORNEY Lawyer Says Client Has Not Paid Either Expense Of Trial Or Counsel Fee Charles Satchell Morrill, jr., son of the Rev. Charles S. Morris of Norfolk, Va. a former pastor of Abyssinian Baptist Church, New York City, is being held in the Seventh District Municipal Court for unpaid fees for professional services rendered him by James G. Thomas, former Assistant, United States Attorney In his summons and complaint, filed by his attorney, Maxwell Shapiro of 217 Broadway, Mr. Thomas sets forth that young Morris was arrested Mt December, and held by Magistrate Oberwasser in the 12th District Court without bail from Saturday, December 4 to Tuesday, December 7, awaiting extradition papers from Tennessee, where Morris had been indicted, charged with the theft of an automobile. The Governor's warrant was issued, and Morris was being held waiting the arrival of an officer from Tennessee, when Atorney Thomas was enqueered and procured dismissal of the indictment and the consequent discharge: from custody of young Morris. Attorney Thomas alleges that all disbursements in the case were paid out of his own pocket, and that Morris has refused to reimburse the lawyer for fundsMoney or pay the legal fees.Morris added that the "Boy Cap" public spreads, as the "Boy Cap" is attending the Graduate School, at Columbia University. Monarch Lodge Sued For Insurance By Dead Member's Mother A suit for $200 has been filed against the Monarch Lodge, No. 45, 1 Bldg. D. Elks by Mrs. Ella Weinglass of 241 West 111th street, mother of the late. Russell Weinglass, a cousin to Dewey Weinglass, the actor. Mrs. Weinglass' action is based on an alleged death claim due her by this complaint. According to the complaint, Weinglass became a member of Monarch Lodge some three or four years ago, but became unfinancial in March, 1926. He paid his back dues on September 9, 1926 and on October 1 he was killed in a pool room on Seyventh avenue. The lodge refused to pay the death claim. The reason as given by Dr. Hudson J. Oliver, exalted ruler, was based on was a by-law, which reads as follows: When a member becomes imprisoned, the target is the shirley-debtedness he shall not be benefitted by such payment until the expiration of sixty days from the date." The contention of the lodge is that sixty days had not elapsed at time of death of Weinglass, but Attonney Charles Lynch, counsel for the plaintiff, believes this law is unsound and some adjustment of the policy should be made. State Tax Commission Gives Tax Information It is announced by the State Tax Commission that hereafter only returns of information as to payments of $1,500 or more to single persons, and $4,500 or more to married persons will be required. This change was recognized by the recent amendment of the personal income tax regulations, effective November 1, 1926, and applies to these information returns to be filed for the year 1920. "This provision," is id Director Thomas M. Lynch, "is made because of the amended law increasing the personal exemptions to $1,500 for single persons and $3,500 for married persons living together. It is substantially the same as the federal regulations." PATROLMEN HAROLD P. CHARLES WILLIAMS A COMMISSIONER McLAU For meritorious conduct in the line of duty, recognition by the Police Department, was awarded to thirty-nine members of the New York police force by Commissioner George V. McLaughlin. Among the list, of those selected for honors were the names of three Harlem colored members of the force. The names of two of these men will be engraved on a tablet at Police headquarters, and the third was commended for heroic conduct in the line of duty. ry The two whose names go on the settable are: Patrolmian Harold W. Treate of the 17th Precinct, who with Rejection of Senator-Designate Smith By Democrats and Independent Borah Republicans Seen As Significant Omen Southern Democratic Opposition To Seating Of Smith of Illinois Offers Chance To Shoot At Washington, D. C.—The "Negro" tops the list of rising political stocks here. He will continue to do so; at least until after the 1928 elections. This because of Republican party exigencies—plus growing Negro Republican insurgency. President Coolidge has not yet abolished either Governmental segregation or his custom of keeping colored men out of office. Party misfortunes and desertion of Negro allies have made the black citizen formidable, nevertheless. Such, is largely the significance of the U. S. Senate's refusal to administer the oath to Senator-designate "Smith, of Illinois, and wholly two of former South Carolina Governor, McLeod's failure, to make the Federal Trade Commission. independents are party liabilities, and with Southern Democrats, are sources of all Republican exigencies. The one way to be rid of a tiling is to start at the source of it. Source of the Administration's Borah impediments is the Southern Democrats—already justified by the Borah for disfranchisement of the Negro. A precedent was required for attacking the impediments at the source, and along comes Smith. The Democrats opposed his admittance on the ground of alleged misuse of money in getting his nomination. A. Minority /Status. Mr. Smith was rejected at the Senate door solely because *Administration* Republicans joined the insurgents and Boratus in uniting with the Democrats. In all there were sixteen Republicans—more or less. Though elected by seven million plurality, President Obama has been hammering and, with the assistance of the Senate, has unified the party. He has continually united with the Democrats of the Senate and effected a majority. Thus, these so-called and self-styled Prince of Wales Sees Florence Mills' Show Nine Times In London London, Eng—Florence Mills and her, Blackbird Company at the Pavilion Theatre are still the biggest attraction on the London stage. On January 12 the Prince of Whales witnessed the show for the ninth time, and many other notables have viewed the performance more than once. Though booked for only six weeks the revue has been here more than twice that long and there is no letup in the attendance. Noted Georgia Cleric And Wife Die In Fire Savannah, Ga.—Death from suffocation by smoke was the fate of both the Rev. Dr. W. Q. P. Sherman, sr., and his wife, Mrs. J. V. Sherman, when their home at Reynolds street was partially destroyed by fire on Thursday night, January 20, at 4:15 a. m. Dr. Sherman was one of the outstanding figures in the A. M. E. Church for nearly fifty years, and had been placed on the superannuated list. Mrs. Sherman had given more than a quarter century to active participation in state and national missionary work in her husband's connection, and was also an attorney in the Grand Court of Calamthe of the state. The funeral was held Monday, January 24, from St. Philip Monumental A. M. E. Church, the Rev. S. F. Andrews, pastor. A son, the Rev. W. O. P. Sherman, jr., pastor of St. Thomas A. M. E. Church, survives. Patrolman Edward Hildenbrand, rescued an elderly woman trapped in a tenement fire and Patrolman Martin J. Rhodes also of the 16th Precinct, for the arrest of a holdup man: Patrolman Charles Williams of the 16th Precinct was commended for hip conduct on June 11 at 233 a.m. for the arrest of two burglaries about to enter the premises at West 120th street. One of the men was armed in revolver, and the other with a jimmy. The names of the three colored patrolmen were recommended for honors by Captain Camille Pierce, commanding the 16th Precinct. independents are, party liabilities, and with Southern Democrats, are sources of all Republican exigencies. The one way to be rid of a tiring is to start at the source of it. Source of the Administration's Borah impedimenta is the Southern Democrat—already justified by the Borah for branchishment of the Negro. A prescience was required for attacking the impedimenta to the source, and along, comes Smith. The Democrats opposed his admittance on the ground of alleged misuse of money in getting his nomination Regular. Republicans aimed and opportunity; for if Smith could be denied the oath of a Senator for spending too much money for the nomination, or because of the source of most of it, despite lawful and proper certification from the Sovereign State of Illinois, what could stop a Republican majority from functioning as a majority by denying oaths to alleged Senators, nominated, in so-called dismissals from which sovereign citizens, by law, are custom-swearing. Bleace, Reverses Attitude. Only one Senator from the fundamental Breeding bieforesaw the inevitable release, of South Carolina. Mr. Bleace, who perturbed about it until he addressed the Senate for an hour, his mien and indicated complete reversal. Hitherto, on two occasions; he has addressed the Senate. The first time was in the other session of this Congress. Then, he opposed the World Court, because our delegates would have to sit with a "nigger" from Hayti and a "nigger" from Liberia. In this speech Senator Blech spoke at length in opposition to "educating the "niggers." Said every time you educate a "nigger" you turn him into a frock-coated chicken-eating preacher or teacher and spoil a good farmer. On this last occasion, however, he was fulsome with praise; would not say the Negro should not be permitted to vote in this state, but that Senator Blech was not sure the Negro of South Carolina wanted to vote. A. "Fruit Cake" Speech. Twag, the "fruit cake" oration, in that maz B. Blease paid a wonderful tribute to the head of a Negro institution in South Carolina who, in strict adherence to a 17-year custom, had not forgotten to send Mrs. Blease a fruit cake at Christmas. The handwriting was on the wall, and Senator Blease not only saw but interpreted it. The Democratic membership of the Senate must be cut down. Justly resentful voting Negroes must be permitted to help return Copeland of New York, Edwards of New Jersey, Walsh of Massachusetts, in 1928. And to keep them from doing so, the must be encouraged by and full time of the Smith president against Southern Democrats at the door of the Senate. Incidentally, this is a wonderful tribute to the Negro Press, which has not failed to make known just how the voices masses of the race feel about it. Only Negro In Leper Colony, Hawaii, Is Wanting Race News In a letter to The Age editor, Joseph Everett, only American Negro member of the leper settlement in Kaiapua, Mokokah, Hawaiian Islands, writes that he feels homecawk and wants to see some Negro faces and read some Negro news. He says that he is the only American Negro and that although there are some half breeds also in the colony, they are ashamed of their race. In his letter, Mr. Everett says: "Tonight, I am writing you from the interior of a leper settlement. I am a member of the Negro race and I want to read some Negro newspapers and see some Negro faces and to read what progress my people are making in the outer world. "I am the only American Negro in this place so you know how homecawk I feel. I want to subscribe for your paper. Thanking you in advance, for I know that you will try to help a fall-in brother."

Washington, Founder And Principle Tuskegee Institute, Ala.—The thirty-sixth annual Negro Farmers' Conference on January 19, was one of the most interesting sessions of its history. Never was there a more serious minded group assembled at Tuskegee Institute. The farmers came from all states in the South, they came with the same problem—the present farm crisis—and all of them had been brought sharply to the wisdom and soundness of the conference doctrine covering nearly half a century, that home ownership, diversification and moderate living habits will give the Negro farmer a safe place in the economic life of the South. wise in its decision and saw exactly what was going to happen. In thirty-six years the average price of farm land has increased from five dollars an acre to thirty dollars an acre today. The land holdings of the colored farmers in the South have increased from about thirteen million acres thirty-six years ago to twenty-two million acres today. White Leader Praisor Washington. Tribunes to Founder. Throughout the deliberations there were frequent references to the founder and first president of the conference, the late Booker T Washington * Smothers, a successful former of Montgomery Countp, said that he received his inspiration from Booker Washington. The same is true of Hampton of Culldon, Georgia, who stated that he had attended a number of conferences during the lifetime of Tuskegee's Founder. Not only was the sentiment expressed by the colored farmers, but it was also expressed by the white speakers. Dr. Spright Dowell, who delivered the principal address, felt that there was no better place than Tuskegee for the Negro farmer to discuss a safe farming program for 1927, because "the atmosphere at Tuskegee has been struck through and through with the spirit of its gifted Founder whose major objective was to lead a race forward and upward to economic independence." Secretary Jardine of the United States Department of Agriculture told the farmers in a telegram of greetings that Booker Washington had left them through the conference "great heritage in educational and agricultural philosophy." Splendid. Exhibit. The exhibit in the Institute Chapel was made evidence that Tuskegee Institute is putting into practice the doctrine of diversification and the year-around garden. There was on the platform a fine display of turnips, peas, collards, velvet beans, corn, potatoes, poultry, oats and hay, all of which had been raised on the Tuskegee Institute farm or the truck garden. In addition there were modern farm impiments and a model potato storage house all of which attracted a great deal of attention. There were two sessions—morning and afternoon—at which time the farmers whose sincerity and earnestness often accentuated by a variety of dialects, gave the meetings a dramatic and colorful effect. When one farmer said that this schools in his community were suffering not from the low price of cotton, but because the colored people were spending too much money on automobiles, there were loud "amens" which reminded one of the old style camp meetings. Typical Reports Instance after instance was recorded where farmers reported that while they had not been able to sell their cotton at a profit, they were not suffering because they had a plenty of meat in their smoke houses, sweet potatoes and other food products as well as plenty of feed for their cattle. A typical report was made by O. C. Crowe of Montgomery County, Alabama. He reported that during 1926, he had a gross income of $1,649.17 from dairying of which the upkeep was $312.28, leaving him a net profit of $1,363.89. When asked how much land he owned, he replied that he owned the replied - that he owned fifty-seven acres. He began with nothing, he said, and after having contracted for some land he flaid "to house the down payment." borrow the down payment. Mrs. Annie Dowell from Lee County presented one of the most interesting addresses of the session. Starting back in 1880 with nothing according to her statement, she and her husband, by stinting and saving and accumulated 380 acres of land, now under cultivation. She is the mother of nine children, most of whom have been educated. Since the death of her husband, the farm has been managed by her. She reported that last year, she cleared $600 from chicken milk and vegetables. Vice-Principal Taylor Speake. In the absence of Dr. Moton, R. R. Taylor, vice-principal, presided. Mr. Taylor made a retrospective review of the beginnings of the conference, its progress, and some of its achievements. This Conference, said Mr. Taylor, thirty six years old. The Tuskegee Institute is forty-six years old, this conference and the Tuskegee Institute are pretty nearly the same. From its very first meeting, over which Dr. Washington presided, I understand that this conference has put it on record as favoring the put-together land, of beautifying the home, of making surroundings of the home in sweet and clean. In Washington said, constantly land was cheap then, but that it did not remain cheap, and that it did in the aim of every farmer hold of a piece of land, how small and that was made a part the revolution of that first confer- The conference was certainly NEW YORK ELKS HAVE BEGUN TO MAKE PREPARATIONS FOR ELK'S CONVENTION About the middle of August, 1927, New York will be host to the largest fraternal organization among colored people in the United States, THE IMPROVED, BENEVOLENT, PROTECTIVE ORDER OF ELKS OF THE WORLD. This organization, with a membership of more than 150,000, will send some 100,000 delegates and friends to Harlem. And this means that arrangements for housing, boarding and entertaining these visitors must be made in advance. The Local Lodges of Elks, assisted by the Temples, are already working to make the Grand Lodge Convention here the biggest and most successful in the history of the Order, but they realize this cannot be done by the New York Elks alone. The cooperation of business men and public spirited citizens generally, is earnestly solicited.

In thirty-six years the average price of farm land has increased from five dollars an acre, to thirty dollars an acre today. The land holdings of the colored farmers in the South have increased from about thirteen million acres thirty-six years ago, to twenty-two million acres today. White Leader Fraison Washington. The principal address of the afternoon session was delivered by Dr. Spright Dowell, president of the Alabama Polytechnic Institute at Auburn. Dr. Dowell urged the farmers to provide better schools, better churches and better home life, and received tremendous oplause when he said that any farming program which did not include sympathetic consideration for the women on the farm would neither be safe nor sound. Concerning Booker Washington, he said: "His philosophy comprehended only such relations as would make for the best development of all and his thought was constantly in terms of universal good. May we not give it as our deliberate judgment that if the principles which this great leader championed and the policies which he would have followed were practiced throughout the South, there would be no occasion of the existence anywhere of any other attitude than that of friendly co-operation. "It seems to me that in addition to the associations and contributions that attach to a spot made sacred by the life and work of that great educator and leader, we have here the finest possible stimulus to heroic endeavor and the finest possible example of the incomparable development that may come to a lofty ideal consecrated to the betterment of mankind through a heroic personality." Workers' Conference. The Workers' Conference was held Tuesday evening, January 18, at which time there was discussion of the relationship of the present colf of the Alabama State Normal School, Montgomery;; J. R. E. Lee, president of the, A. and M. College, Tallahassee, Florida; Sanford H. Lee, agricultural demonstration agent in Georgia; Mrs. L. R. Daly, home demonstration worker in Montgomery; Dr. James E. Gregg, principal of Hampton Institute. The declarations of the conference recognized "that as severe as is the situation it is not permanent," and "we realize that if we face these adverse conditions with courage and determination we shall come through but the stronger for these temporary hardships." Many Attend Conference. Where formerly the farmers came in -all manner of vehicles- ancient buggies, heavy carts, some astride mules and horses, they come now in various kinds of automobiles. Some of them high prices, some middle priced, and a great throng of Fords. An extensive area near the Institute chapel was converted into a parking place where hundreds of cars were parked. As early as Sunday evening visitors to the conference had begun arriving at Tuskegee. And they came in constantly increasing numbers through the first of the week until the crowd Wednesday rivaled those of more prosperous agricultural years.

Figures which the National Negro Insurance Association has just made public: show that 33,330 persons were employed by the twenty-two companies which are members of the National Negro Insurance Association, and that during the year ending 1925, they paid salaries, during the year of approximately $4,500,000, an average wage to each individual worker of $900 per year, 375, per month, 717.25 per week, $280 per day, 356, per hour. The character of this employment deserves attention. Dignified positions in every capacity from clerk and agent to director and president were given this army of workers who comprised the employees of these racial companies. When it is remembered that the Negro companies have insurance in force upon only one-eighth of even the colored people who are insured, and that of the other seven-eighths of insurance upon members of the group, but, little finds its way back to the insured in salaries or income save that of an occasional janitor, a striking idea of the value which these racial enterprises are to those who support them is gained. The largest white company carrying Negro business has $900,000,000 in force on Negro lives, and yet it has not a single Negro agent, clerk, or employee, save a few janitors in some cities. Business Training An Asset. The business training and experience which these institutions have given to the boys and girls and men and women who came within the scope of their operation and influence is another of the assets which the racially owned and operated company on Dixon street.

Pz Avenue 4927-4928 May 21 --- SENATORIAL LYNCH LAW. The tolerance of lynch law by the United States Senate is no new thing. The action of that body of eminent statesmen in refusing to pass the Dyer anti-lynching bill has set the seal of senatorial approval, on that barbarity, as shown by last year's record. But we hardly expected that the day would come, when the United States Senate would be accused of lynching a candidate for admission to its sacred circle. Yet that is the charge made by that high priest of Republicanism, the New York Herald Tribune, in the case of Col. Frank L. Smith, who claimed admission by virtue of an appointment by the Governor of Illinois to fill out the term of the late Senator McKinley. Fifteen Republican Senators united with thirty-two Democrats and one Farmer Labor member to refuse to allow Senator Smith to take the oath of office before an investigation, although his credentials bore evidence of the legality of his appointment to represent the sovereign state of Illinois. The reason assigned for this summary barring of a Senator, with a clear title to his seat, dates back to the primary in which Colonel Smith contested the nomination with Senator McKinley, and became the regular candidate to succeed him. The special Senate committee headed by Senator Reed of Missouri investigated this primary and charged Colonel Smith with spending a huge campaign fund to secure the nomination. One item to which particular objection was made was the contribution by Mr. Samuel Insull, the head of public service interests although a smaller contribution was also made to the Democratic campaign fund from the same source. But Colonel Smith was the head of the Illinois Public Utility Commission, hence the contribution to his cause was regarded by Senator Reed as an act of moral turpitude. The Herald-Tribune put the case in a nutshell: If there are disabilities under which he suffers Colonel Smith was entitled to examination of them after entry, not before. His credentials themselves are unimpeachable. But Senator Reed and the other lynch-law riders wanted to register their contempt for the credentials of any men -whom they may mark for slaughter on the threshold, Legality merely added, insult to injury and fanned the flames of frontier dementia. The Missouri Senator ought: to have had a tanderer 'sympathy with victims of political mob violence. He was lynched at the door of the Democratic National Convention of 1920, on the pretense that he was not a Democrat. He had selected a delegate, as he thought, and as practically everybody else agreed. But the imaginary objection that he had ceased to be a Jeffersonian was enough to draw the nose about his peek. The Senate is not a Democratic convention, although it often acts like one. Lynching Colonel Smith may have furnished a few exciting hours. But blunders of that sort always come home to roost. II. Colonel Smith's present title is not good even for a temporary admission into the Senate. then no Senate title is good and mob spirit may be invoked hereafter to exclude almost anybody elected or appointed. Under the new Reed (of Missouri); rules their author may be thrown out because he was once pilloried in a letter written by President Wilson. A whole class of incoming Senators might be strung up at the gate because the two hold-over classes thought that that was the best way to perpetuate their hold on Senate patronage and committee assignments. Senate titles are without validity now until they have passed muster with Judge Lynch. It is of course entirely consistent that a legislative body that has tacitly endorsed lynch law should resort to that sort of thing in regulating its own membership. As The Age has repeatedly pointed out, lynch law recoils in its evil results upon its perpetrators and endorsers. The communities who practice lynch law become a breeding place for murderers and other brutal criminals. The legislators who favor lynching by refusing to make it a criminal offence under Federal law, and themselves part of a lynching party, according to the Herald-Tribune. It is highly significant that such blatant advocates of lynch law as the two South Carolina' Senators, Blease and Smith, were among the four. Democrats who protested against the precedent of summary rejection thus established. If the Senate chose to go behind the credentials presented by the Senators from the South in the manner done in the case of Colonel Smith, most of them could be rejected on the ground of fraud and suppression of the franchise. But the Republican' Senators lack the courage According to the Brooklyn Standard Union, Monsignor Belford made a talk a few Sundays ago on "The Church and Labor," at the Knights of Columbus club house, in which he delivered himself of some unusual sentiments for one in his position. Some of his most striking declarations were made in response to questions that followed his talk. From the two column news account published in the Standard Union, we quote the following: In his answers the prelate repeated his denunciation of communion breakfasts and of the measures of Brooklyn Catholics. One quarter of the answer attributes absolutely nothing to the support of the "church"; another fourth gives 5 oenets a week and the remaining half hears the entire burden. When asked about Gov. Smith's chances for the Presidency he declared that "All would never carry the election, even if he received the nomination. "No Catholic will ever get to that office," he asserted. Among the questions submitted and the answers were: Q. Why do you always abuse the colored people attending Father Quinn's church, from your altar, when you were ordained to preach the gospel "All men are created equal"? A. If anyone says I ever abused colored people he is a liar. I have never abused them any more. I am a man. He said there is a colored church around the corner. I do object to white people go there. Anyhow, those who go there are not white, they are yellow. Of course when a priest gets to talking publicly in this careless fashion he must eventually be silenced for the sake of the church. Exactly what meaning the speaker desired to convey by his reference to the neighboring congregation of the Catholic faith, is uncertain, but it evidently was not intended as complimentary. Despite his having been invested with an ecclesiastical title of dignity, Monsignor Belford has not absorbed or digested the latest papal pronouncement on the subject of the darker races and the church. A DOUBLE INDISCRETION Two examples of indiscreet utterance were furnished in the Seventh District Municipal Court, one day last week, one of which went to show that the bench does not always preserve that freedom from bias necessary for the administration of justice. In the case referred to, the complainant, a colored landlord who was suing one of his tenants, interrupted the testimony to remark that the witness was lying. Whether this was the fact or not, the interruption was out of order and merited rebuke by the judge. But the method used by Judge Louis Abrams, who was holding the hearing, was as bad, if not worse than the original offence. Turning to the landlord, he was reported as saying: "You would not have made that remark in the South, would you?" The pertinency of this inquiry to a proceeding in a New York municipal court, conducted under the laws of the State of New ork, is negligible but its animus is unmistakable. Judge Abrams evidently meant to insinuate that the Negro in a Southern court would have been so cowed by the atmosphere of local race prejudice, that he would not have dared to say that his soul was his own. It is a matter for congratulation, that such conditions do not prevail in the Courts of New York. If a Negro litigant or witness transgresses the rules of court procedure he is liable to rebuke or punishment for contempt, in the same manner as any other offender, but any reference to what might obtain in the South is not only evidence of bias on the bench, but is derogatory to the dignity of the State of New York. We believe that Judge Abrams was appointed by Mayor Walker to fill a vacancy on the municipal bench, and he is reported to have conducted a lively canvass among colored voters in seeking election for the regular term of office. His lapse from the attitude of judicial impartiality is the more to be deplored, in that it betrays a state of mind that is dangerous to the administration of even handed justice in his court. It would be well to keep an eye on Judge Abrams' attitude toward colored litigants in the future. RACE RELATIONS REVIEWED. In a press release from Atlanta, Robert B. Elenazar, Educational Director of the Commission on Interracial Cooperation, made a succinct review of the trends in race relations for the past year. He found the most encouraging development in the increasing integration of Negroes with the social welfare agencies of the community and the state. Distinct departments of Negro welfare have been established by the State Welfare boards of North Carolina and Georgia, while in Alabama, Louisiana and Tennessee the state welfare and interracial organizations meet in Joint annual sessions. In the other states close cooperative relations are stated to be maintained between the two groups. Closely related to the welfare movement has been the inclusion of race agencies in community chest budgets, which has been done in a number of cities. The colored people of these communities are culled in systematic support of these chests and their institutions are provided for in the chest budgets. The significance of this cooperation is the recognition of Negroes as an essential part of the community, both from the point of an asset and a liability, and entitled to equal consideration with any other group. Mr. Eleazar also notes progress in the improvement of school facilities in several Southern cities. He cites Atlanta as having just expended a million and a quarter on new Negro schools, with the promise of fair participation in a new school bond issue of five million dollars. In Louisville provision has been made for two new Junior high schools, a graded school and the enlargement of several others. A department for Negroes is also to be opened in the University of Louisville. Raleigh is making school improvements costing several hundred thousand dollars, while Memphis has just completed a new high school and added to others at equal cost. Other schools have been established elsewhere in Tennessee at a cost of three hundred thousand dollars, while New Orleans has just completed the new Craig school for two hundred and fifty thousand. According to Mr. Eleazar, the newspapers of his section have become powerful influences for better race relations. This is to be seen in the absence from the front page of the flaming stories of Negro crime, which were a prolific cause of race riots and lynchings. Such stories are now either played down to lesser proportions or left out altogether by the respectable dailles. Another change of equal importance in educating public opinion has been the featuring of constructive Negro news, such as achievement in education, business, literature and art; stories of heroism and huuan interest, of interracial cooperation and welfare work. Such news is said to be of constant occurrence in hundreds of Southern papers, which cannot fail to have a healthy reaction among their readers. This new attitude is reflected in the editorial columns. Other significant developments noted are the growth of interracial interest among college groups and on the part of religious bodies. In one denomination, some two hundred thousand women are reported to be studying race relations at regular intervals. Two discouraging symptoms are observed to threaten the promise of better race relations in the near future. One of these is the increase of lynching during the past year in the South. The other is the series of bombing and mob attacks on Negro property in the North and West. Calm consideration of these latter incidents, which are attributed to the Negro migration from the South, is suggested to the leaders of both groups, in order to minimize the consequences that may result from their disturbance of race relations. BETTER HOUSING MOVEMENTS. Decent homes for people of small means has become the slogan of several movements by State and private agencies to do away with the slum sections of New York and to provide better accommodations for this class of city dwellers. In addition to the State Housing Board, formed at the suggestion of Governor Smith, a national body has been organized to deal with congested areas on a country-wide basis. Mr. August Hecksher, who has been endeavoring to enlist private capital to wipe out the slums as a work of philanthropy and who is interested in the national movement, said that the committee will sponsor a campaign of education "to show the American people that the slums, with their power to breed disease and crime, suffering and social unrest, actually exist." The project of wiping out the slum districts in Manhattan has been hindered by the high estimates, of the cost involved in razing old buildings and erecting suitable dwellings in their stead. Then the problem of housing the inmates during this reconstruction presents some difficulties. There is trouble in finding suitable land at moderate prices within the limits of the island, upon which to erect small, dwellings. The ground is so valuable that modern construction demands its utilization by building up into the air, Business structures, hotels and high class apartments have comprised most of the recent building operations, although some cautious investors have sounded a note of warning, lest the demand for this THE AGE READERS' FORUM One solution of this difficulty in providing better housing, on Manhattan Island would be to remove the slum dwellers to other boroughs, where ground is cheaper and smaller houses can be erected. This has been done to a large extent, both in Brooklyn, Queens and the Bronx, but the matter of transportation for the city workers has to be considered. All the present subways and bridges are congested with traffic and the present municipal administration seems to be as helpless as its predecessors in furnishing batter facilities for travel. Describing a trip to Prairie View State Normal and 'Industrial College, C. F. Richardson, in the Houston Informer said: Prairie View ranks as the largest land-grant school in Negroes in America, and the present enrollment is the largest in the history of the school. In fact, several hundred prospective students were turned down, because of the lack of adequate housing facilities; yet two dormitories (one for girls and one for boys) have been completed during the present session, and it is hoped that the next Texas legislature will increase the biennial appropriation for this school, in order that Prairie View might keep pace with the growing educational needs of our people. Some of the leading American institutions of learning are represented on the Prairie View campus, a side from the teacher training courses offered, special instruction is given in nurse-training, agriculture, trades and home economies.

An encouraging success of practical relief to the housing corporation in Harlem was seen in the announcement that and other group of model tenements has been planned by the company representing Mr. John D. Rockefeller, Jr. These buildings will be of the same style as the model Rockefeller apartments at 159th street and Mott avenue. The rentals. It is said, will be fixed at a moderate figure, for three, four and five room apartments. This is the chief need of the wage earners of Harlem, small apartments at a moderate rental that will do away with the necessity for taking in irresponsible sub-tenants or lodgers. Any movement that will meet this need, whether backed by a State Housing Board or private capital, is to be commended. THE EDITORS PLAYINGS OF OTHER EDITORS deyor.

You really wanted to know, but then you feared it might be worse than you expected, so you would not go to a doctor to find out. Then perhaps, when you did go, you found that it was some very simple thing which could easily be remedied. And you washed you had gone sooner so that you might have felt better sooner. Don't be "afraid" to go to a doctor. He won't hurt you, and he will be able to help you much more if you go to him as soon as you notice that you are not up to par physically, may pain, save yourself a great deal of pain and suffering, and may prevent serious illness by going to a doctor as soon as you notice that you do not feel well. But still, go to a physician for a health examination once every year to make certain that you are keeping in as good condition as possible. Overcome that foolish "fear" of learning the truth about yourself and learn to think of the doctor as a good friend. Do your best to keep physically fit.

The author of the Haverhill National Library is responsible in building national library certificates, in view of the general disinclination of building institutions in aid the ex-service men. Under the heading "Good for Haverhill," the Boston Chronicle had the following editorial comment on a recent news happening: A news item from our correspondent in Haverhill memorials that through the lifespan of Beryl Burrell, minister of the colored Baptist Church, the Negro citizens have given a set of books by Negro authors to the public library of that city and further in the article, the colored citizens are asked to study the history of the race. The Chronicle is pleased to take continuance of this act. It marks a milestone in our intellectual journey. It has been generally said that colored people are not interested in books. Librarians complain that books by Negro authors are never borrowed by colored people, in fact, the percentage of black readers interested with others. Is no compensate with the population, they declare. The Chronicle sagely concludes that with a cultured younger generation there will be no cause for complaint of the neglect of library facilities. The editor of the Pacific Defender heard the suggestion that black people were infected with an inferiority complex and set out to find the facts. He reported: In our various observations we discovered first, that in neighborhoods where black residents predominate, merchants of other races are in the majority-infact, we found in cases where there are black men in business in such neighborhoods the majority of people of their own race seeking to purchase commodities they had for sale, usually passed these merchants by to do business with the other group. We stopped several buyers and asked the reason why they did this. A majority of the answers ran like this: "Oh, the Jap, the Jew, or the white man has better goods and can sell cheaper than the black man." Now, we wonder if this is true. Text, we dropped in as a social tea. Guests, we met and talked to women are approximately down indigo and girls, they discussed men and women, girls and boys, and babies. Always the comparison and criticism learned favorably toward those of lighter complexions, withask varying in texture that tended towards being "straight." And again we wondered, why this were true. The evening found us in the lobby of the "Y." There young men were talking about chances in business, professions, and positions. Always the conversation reverted to the point where color should not have entered in, but invariably injected in. All of their remarks concluded with: "Well, if I were not black, I could easily accomplish all of the things achieved by men of other races." And we guessed and wondered if this were true. The only way to overcome this feeling of inferiority is by training and preparedness to meet all competitors on equal terms. Given the same training and a fair start the black race can hold its own in any field of sudamvor. Wayman Johnson in the Palmetto Leader of Columbia cited the economic progress of Greedleville as an example of a thriving South Carolina community. He said: This community like many others once depended on one industry. But now it is no more a saw mill center but truck as far as the eye can reach. The farmers are able to send their produce to the largest markets in the country, without the middle-man. All the beans, okra and tomatoes are canned here or in nearby towns. It is a common thing to hear farmers say, "cotton prices don't hurt me," because he does not depend on cotton solely for a livelihood. So the conquering of the antagonistic spirit, which resulted in the erection of the best training schools in the state, and the best-flying and modernizing of the churches is a blessing. The turn of the citizens from the saw-mill industry to truck farming, which resulted in the people coming into communication with the largest markets in the country, and the erection of canneries, has caused this community to step ahead of many to that are now facing the same problem. This seems to be a case where diversified crops and educational progress went hand in hand. The moral is obvious. The erudite editor of the Star of Zion discourses in this absturtefashion upon a subject of popular interest. Petting parties, whatever they are and whatever their inner workings, are growing into national disrepute. They are doubtless illimical to public and their social well-being, for the Y. M. C. A. which is well posted to know the facts has declared nationwide war on petting. They will join in this fight by the W. C. A. Petting is defined in a pamphlet by Dr. Max J. Exner as "mock love." It does not require a vivid imagination to comprehend the mild significance of this definition. It is becoming notorious that certain young men of the baser sor, condition their association with some young women upon their willingness or unwillingness to sell themselves for the mere sake of masculine companionship. These facts are known to newspaper men, to preachers, to Y. M. C. A and Y. W. C. A. workers. They reveal an utter collapse of home training, and a neglect of Christian education. And yet the general assembly of North Carolina in which state the Star is published, reported unfavorably upon an "anti-petting" bill introduced by a Baptist minister. Where the last balks at police investigation of parked motor cars, moral suasion must be employed. DeHART HUBBARD ASKS A. A. U.

Not only that, it Jordan and with another y accomplish that feat S ur." Stubbard refers—Cator an e in France. Both have being remarkable consisten the world's outdoor re oor mark of 24 feet 71" E OF COLLEGE De Hast Hubbart national broad jump champion and holder of the world's broad jump record has written Murray Hulbert, president of the Amateur Athletic Union, denying that he had become a professional and asked an investigation of his status by that official. Mr. Hulbert said the investigation would be granted. Hubbard states that he has set his goal for a double victory in the 1928 Olympic games. He said, "The 1928 Olympic games are only a year away and I see no broad jumper who can defeat Cator or Biunetto, with the possible exception of myself. Not only that, it my ambition to win the 100 meter dash at Amsterdam and with another year's competition I believe that I will be ready to accomplish that feat. So with these two ends in view I am still an amateur." The men to whom Hubbard refers—Cator and Biunetto—are two Haitians, making their home in France. Both have leaped over the 25 foot mark and both are showing remarkable consistency in hitting around that distance. Since Hubbard holds the world's outdoor record which is close to 26 feet, and the world's indoor mark of 24 feet 71½ inches, he is qualified to make the boast he does. THE VALUE OF COLLEGE ATHLETICS THE VALUE OF COLLEGE ATHLETICS By CHARLES DREW organ College and Formerly pointed from "The Morganian" should be made to meet all really as his less versatile for the word an amateur for the honor of his almighty the sportsmanlike spirit lifted the name and traded game on a high plane that has no scholastic or sentimental to me a means, not an objective goal in itself, even if of myriad hosts of rabids the goes no farther nor more him in battles of life in athletics have a woman it will do them most advanced far enough not for long periods of the construction of efficient men and practice No idiot ex great college athlete. It the men strive to win. The men, though he may have a this physical development follow think and think fast to my mind pale in corpse to give a man's character plays he becomes accustomed them, if he is made for the good of the who give more than he has. In the throes of impetus to fight and fight till unditable will that says, might the same battles and survivives the battles and co of confidence will he give him faith battle of life with the fighter he has got all the bennerer, and has passed their with a sound, ready brain, and through previous struts the man who is physically like good when put under it is. Some hope lies in surged in time by real man not engage in this killin of manhood or possibly that I do say is that we can put our stamp on a man more glorious for his have new steel. The tragic college, is that so many and another thereby failing to go Athletic Director of Morgan College and Former Star Athlete at Amherst The following is reprinted from "The Morganite," student paper of Morgan College: A college athlete should be made to meet all the curricula requirements of his school just as rigidly as his less versatile fellow student. He should be in the truest sense of the word an amateur athlete: playing the game for the love of playing and for the honor of his alma mater. A man playing under such conditions with the sportsmanlike spirit of a true amateur is far more likely to keep unsullied the name and traditions of the institution he represents and keep the game on a high plane than one who plays because he is paid to do so and has no scholastic or sentimental obligations to meet which are worth mentioning. College athletics are to me a means, not an end in itself, for considering it as an end or ultimate goal in itself, even when a boy is the idol of the school and the hero of myriad hosts of rabid fans, he shall have profiteh himself very little if he goes no farther nor makes what he has acquired in his battles of play serve him in battles of life when his college days are over. Those who take part in athletics have a wonderful chance for physical development at a time when it will do them most good. Their growing period is about over or had advanced far enough not to weaken or stunt them when forced to train hard for long periods of time. Their training as a rule is done under the instruction of efficient men, they themselves being well schooled in theory and practice. No idiot ever has his name-flashed across newspapers as a great college athlete. It takes brains to win most anything and all college teams strive to win. The man who has not got the head can't stand the grade, though he may have the courage of a liar and the strength of a bull. This physical development and training is great. Anything that makes a fellow think and think fast and accurately is surely of some value, but these to my mind pale in comparison to the test that competitive college athletics give a man's character, his very soul. Here early in life, in plays he becomes accustomed to meeting all kinds of odds, and overcoming them, if he is made of the right stuff. Here he has to subordinate self for the good of the whole team. Here he learns to keep plugging away, to give more than he has, when his body is worn out and every move is pain. In the throes of impending defeat, in the agony of a losing battle, he learns to fight and fight till the end, with nothing to drive him but his own indomitable will that says, fight on, and the knowledge that others have fought the same battles and won. Such a test tries a man's mettle, and if he survives the battles and comes out "bloody but unbowed" a new world of confidence will be born for that man and his confidence will give him faith enough in himself to face the problems in the battle of life with the firm belief that he has the stuff to see it through. If he has got all the benefits from his college athletics that they had to offer, and has passed their stringent tests, he should be able to leave college with a sound, ready brain, a well developed body and a faith in himself acquired through previous struggles to meet life as he finds it and dare to live it. On the other hand the man who is physically and mentally apt to play at games, yet fails to make good when put under fire, knows himself for the coward and laggard that he is. Some hope lies in this knowledge. Maybe the yellow streak can be purged in time by real red blood. I do not say that the fellow who does not engage in this killing competitive life lacks any of the finer qualities of manhood or possibilities of heroic action in the case of emergencies; what I do say is that we cannot guarantee these untested goods. We can put our stamp on a man whom we have seen go through fire and come out more glorious for his having gone through, strong and clean and true like bright new steel. The tragedy of athletics, like that of most other things in college, is that so many are just exposed to it, sip but lightly and delve no further thereby failing to get much that is to be had for the taking. Langford Benefit Nets $5,410—Flowers Wins Feature Bout By K. O. Langford Benefit Nets $5,410—Flowers Wins Feature Bout By K. O. Sam Langford, considered by many to be one of the greatest heavyweights of all times, will receive approximately $6000 from contributions and from a benefit boxing show at the new Walker A C Wednesday night, January 19. The club was packed with some 4000 boxing fans and a fine bill was presented. In the main event, Bruce Flowers of New Rochelle scored a knockout victory over Johnny Ryan of Ireland in 54 seconds of the third round of a scheduled ten round contest. Flowers weighed 134 pounds and Ryan 136%. In the semi-final McVey, Harlem welterweight, scored an easy victory over Eddie Dempsey of Philadelphia. The fans are still wondering why McVey did not knock his man out. Black Bill, Cuban flyweight champion, handed Pincus Silverberg of Bridgeport a heavy pounding in the first ten round contest. After the bout, Bill shook hands with Langford and contributed $50 toward the fund. Canada Lee and Izzy Grove, who fought the four round preliminary bout donated their services but put up the best contest of the evening. Both fighters weighed 140 pounds. Just before the main bout came on Langford, who is almost blind was led to the center of the ring by Joe Jeannette but both men were so overcome with emotions that neither could thank the fans for their generosity. Thanks were offered by George W Harris on behalf of Langford. The benefit was staged under the direction of Daniel H. Skilling, den : : : --- --- age and Former Star Athlete at Amherst.

Krigwa Players Show Remarkable Progress As 2nd Season Opens Krigwa Players Show Remarkable Progress As 2nd Season Opens By WILLIAM E. CLARK The Krigwa/Players' Little Negro Theatre has outgrown its home in the basement of the 135th Street Branch Public Library That the growth is a development of greater appreciation on the part of the public and a ripening of the art of individual performer and playwrights was attested by the manner in which four one-act plays were received by a capacity audience Monday evening, January 24. Two of the plays served to increase considerably the reputation of Miss Eulalie Spence as a playwright "Her," written by Miss Spence, was by far the best of the bill. It was a ghost story and was written with such skill that it rose to the heights of a three act tragedy that might have been written by a Eugene O'Neill. Miss Doraliyne Spence, a sister of the author, showed by her acting in the principal role that more than one member of the family is talented Other members of the cast of "Her," all of whom acted with the case of professionales, were: Charles Burroughs, Ardelle Dabney, John S. Brown and William G. Holly Miss Spence's other play, "Foreign Mail," was a humorous skit and was also well received by the large audience. Marion King, William G. Holly and Olga Spence, another sister of the author, were the best of the capable cast of "Foreign Mail" Others were James H Holbrook, Charles Burroughs and Menta Turner The one criticism that might be made of both "Her" and "Foreign Mail" is that they were more Latin-American in theme and treatment than Negro And this criticism brings the question, whether it is wise or not for the Little Negro Theatre to stick to Negro plays exclusively? The one real Negro play of the program was written by W. J. Jefferson of Philadelphia, and was called "Mandy." The cast consisted of only three persons, Mr Alexander (William F. Jackson), a white southerner; Mrs. Alexander (Margaret Forster) his wife, and Mandy (Ardelle Dabney) their colored servant. It was the story of a lynching in the South, dramatically told and acted in its principal part of Ardelle Dabney, long recognized as one of the outstanding dramatist actresses Harlem has produced. Mandy hears of a lynching two nights before in a town forty miles away. She has been hearing of lynchings, and even seeing the body of the victims off and on for some time, but this one stars her with even greater fear than the others, specially since she does not know where her wild young son has wandered to. The climax comes when the mistress of the house reads an account of the lynching in the daily paper and it is discovered that Mandy's boy has been lynched. The characters representing better class white southerners are typical of the white South today, in that they secretly abhor lynchings, but because of sentiment in their community have not the courage to speak out against it. However with the tragedy of a lynching so close to them, Mrs Alex anderemal as a resolution she will not be silenced in the future on this subject. The parole to the other three plays was "Pandora's Box," an interactive dance and dialogue by Mary Mewhool and Charles Burroughs. Miss Mewhool more than lived up to the wide reputation she has won as a dancer. The dialogue for her act was written by I. Gordon Amend. The Krigue Players consist of members, and Dr W. F. R. Dulles in the general chairman. Other officers are Charlie Burroughs, director of training; Louise R. L. timber; charge of center and costumes; William G. Hillier, director of publicity; and John S. Brown treasurer. Curtis Coffin's latest picture "William in France" shows the Proust Theatre. Plug in a cinemas in the house is faced with seeing her husband in a car, causing her strenuous withause and action. It opens at the eve of war and at the marriage of an Italian Count to one of the regular officers in the Italian army.

Miles, and Bowers of the colored Y. M. C. A., were the only ones to represent Orange. For East Orange, we proudly mention the effort of Rev. C. M.
