Akley who has made an expedition for the Brooklyn Museum of Arts and Sciences across Africa, from West to East, and who has made a study of the Pygmies, has loaned the 133th Street Street Library, Division of Negro Literature and History, a rare and beautiful collection of art and environs from the Belgian Congo and East Africa. This collection is a most interesting one, with many gorgeous carved pieces of ivory in the form of elephants, crocodiles and birds, representing many legends and myths of the pygmies. There are also ivory bracelets, combs, canes, and hair and jat pins worn by the women; the larger hat pins are used by the men, as the women do not wear hats. The collection of Pygmies bowls and arrows is valuable. The end of the arrows are beautifully carved and have a smooth finish. The bowls are wooden, trimmed with monkey fur, some are hammered iron, and the strings for the hows are made of reed. There is a strip of cloth that is used by the women for dresses. It is the bark of a, fig tree, heaten to the thickness of cloth. It is used as a shaving brush, some with ivory handles, are used in the household, for digging in the fields and in conflict. There is a rare honey pot made of ivory and bamboo hide. This is exceedingly rare, and the honey pot is handed down from one generation to the other. This is a most interesting exhibit.

Argument on the appeal was heard by the Superior Court at Philadelphia on December 6, last, Judge Kirkpatrick appearing for the husband, with Pace and Williams representing the wife. The appeal was based on Ray on the alleged grievance that his income did not exceed such high alimony and counsel fees, and he set forth in contravention that Mrs. Ray held property in her own name in Chicago, worth $28,000, besides joint ownership with her husband in properties worth $27,000 which he transferred to her at time of their marriage. The Superior Court's decision, however, uphold the lower Court's order. The accrued alimony, it is computed, will run well into four figures, as asserted by Mrs. Ray in that the Superior Court made once with this order and makes the required payments his suit for divorce will be halted.

C.—Significant and far-reaching, and perhaps of greater importance even appears on the surface, is the opinion of the United States Supreme Court, handed down by Mr. Jur Oliver. Wendoll Holmes, declaring unconstitutional the Texas law, which bars Negroes from voting Democratic primaries. The decision was announced on Monday, March 7, and was unanimously curred in. Added interest is found in the faecia tha. Justice Holmes handed down this notable document on the eye of his 80th birthday, which he celebrated on Tuesday. March 8 by pursuing his usual schedule of activities—walking the mile of Capitol and putting in the rest of the day listening to arguments and working on decisions. The Texas Law "The Texas law, passed in May, 1923, under former 'Governor Pat M. Neff,' declares specifically that no event shall a Negro be eligible for theocratic primary election held in the State of Texas, and should a Negro vote in a Democratic primary election, such ballot shall be void and election officials shall not count the same." — Supreme Court decision, Justice Holmes declares that the law is a direct and obvious infringement of the 14th Amendment; which denies to any State the right to withhold equal protection of the law from the Negro, and that the 15th Amendment to consider the 15th Amendment in reaching a decision. How The Case Started. The case at issue was that of L. A. Nixon, plantiff in error, a colored citizen of El Paso, Texas, against C. H尔德恩 and Charles Porras, judges in the primay election held in El Paso July 26, 2004, for nomination of Democratic candidates for Senate Representatives in Congress and State and other officers.

The defense of the suit, the election judge signed a statement that Nixon was barred from voting because of this race. Nixon entered, suit for, 1900 damages, but the lower court him. The case was taken up by the N. A. A. C. P. from its headquarters at 69 Fifth Avenue, New York, and with Moorfield Storey of Boston, Louis Marshall and Arthur Spingar of New York, who fought through all the Texas courts, carried to the Federal courts, and then to the United States' Supreme Court. The history of this case brings to mind the Albapha election cases in 1904, when an attempt was made to test the validity of the State Court that the war needed the ballot houses. The late Dr. Booker T. Washington of Tuskegee Institute contributed the first $1,000 toward the expense of carrying the case to the United States Supreme Court, and Counsel Wilford H. Smith, D.C., said that the proper procedure would be to carry, the split first through the State and local Federal courts before reaching the United States Supreme Court, but the decision that the war needed the ballot houses was taken direct to the United States Supreme Court, and an adversary decision was based largely on the fact that the case had not been threed out in the lower court.

In the Common hardened down by Justice Holmes, unanimously concurred in by the entire court, it was stated "This is an action against the judges of elections for refusing to permit the plaintiff to vote at a primary election in Texas.

Washington, D.C.-The Neg neither helped nor hindered by Preveto of the so-called McNary-Hay The measure, had it become law, helped, and the greatest hindrance, the Negro farmer himself, accordi sus of opinion of those here who k should know. Washington, D. C—The Negro farmer was neither helped nor hindered by President Coblidge's veto of the so-called McNary-Haugen Farm Act. The measure, had it become law, would not have helped, and the greatest hindrance now seems to be the Negro farmer himself, according to the concensus of opinion of those here who know, or, at least, should know. The Black Farmers, economically make up the most formidable group in America, constituting 15 percent of all farmers, where as Negroes make up approximately 10 percent of the whole population. Herbert Spencer opined-successfully that the properties of the units determining their properties the aggregate, and the aggregate of black farmers is the only Negro group doing business with an invested capital of over two billion dollars. Forasmuch as not a Negro is on the Federal Farm Loan Board, nor any of its agencies, there is no reason to suspect, that it is President Coblidge's intention to depart from the policy of his administration in this respect and name some Negro to administer the McNary Act. If it should have met his approval, it be passed with this veto. Purposes of the Act. The purposes of the Federal Farm Loan Act briefly are "To interest Three are Negro plantation owners and 'Negro, tenants. Negro landlords and 'Negro, renters. 'Negro oppressors there are black landlords "this crouper" with black landlords. No Help For Negro. Because a farmer is a farmer newer theftest, that black farmers must be more or less affected by unintended conditions generally prevalent in the domain of agriculture; is axiomatic. But that relief for the black farmer would be made more efficacious by the McNary-Haugen Act than is now true of the Federal Farm Loan Act could not, in the light of bitter experience, be expected.

The purposes of the - Federal Farm Loan Act briefly are: To lower and equalize interest, rates on first mortgage farm loans; to provide long-term loans with the privilege of repayment in installments; through a - long or short period of years; at the borrower's option; to assemble the farm-credits of the Nation to be used as equipment in farm development; to stimulate cooperative acting among farmers; to make it easier for the landless to get land; and to provide for safe and sound long-term investments for the thrifty. The law is administered by the Federal, Farm Loan Board named by the President, with his Secretary of the Treasury as chairman; through twelve Federal land banks and a large number of joint stock locks in corporations of the country; the many, national farm loan associations organized and controlled by the borrowers themselves, each made up of ten or more farmers.

Real Estate loans amounting to $175,000 have been made since the organization of the Company, all of which have been placed on property owned by Negroes. 6. Admitted assets amounting to more than $860,000. Unusual Opportunity for Salesmen of Character and Ability to encourage the farmers to operate, action, amuse farmers. So that, the black farmer, left to himself by Negro politicians and mostly located where black politicians are not effective, is a victim rather than a beneficiary of the Farm Loan Act. I heard a Negro landowner, from the South, difficult for a Negro farmer, to do business with the Federal Land banks; that they are administered largely as the whites handle, the voting booths on election day when a Negro who is ready 16-qualify in the letter of those state's constitutions seeks to register and vote. So since the new agency would be handled by the same men who conduct farm relief under the present Act, the black farmer has lost nothing. Should Use Farm Loan Act. On the other hand, Negroes vitally concerned for 'the race farmer' strongly feel that every effort should be made to take full advantage of the provisions of the Farm Loan Act. Ten or more Negro farmers who desire loans of $20,000 may form a "farm loan association" which would be chartered by the Farm Loan Board. There are over 4,000 such chartered associations. Where are these hows is to be associated a farmer desiring to make a loan must deal with the nearest land bank; and this is just, where, the Negro is "up against it;" more or less. Obviously, organization and assistance from social uplift organizations would enable the black farmer to get much relief through the present Act. Besides, here is to cooperate with the poor to loot somewhere than Haiti and Liberia and the Registration of the Treasury for appointments both serviceable and profitable.

COTTMAN Real Estate And INVESTMENTS 2303 7th Avenue New York Bradhurst 1048 it The Social Service Bureau of Harlem Hospital has been aptly termed by Dr. Rudolph Rapp, the hospital superintendent, as a vital liaison agency between the hospital and the public, and a brief survey of the operations of this department, under the direction of Miss Anna M. Betz, R.N., the head worker, discloses the fact that the term is well applied, since its establishment in 1910. The Social Service Bureau has steadily increased in effectiveness and as a remedial agency in alleviating suffering and distress in cases which are beyond the scope of ordinary medical surgical treatment. This might be termed a primary function of the Bureau is the spacing of patients who have reached the stage of being discharged from the hospital but who still require provision for a period of recovery, and who are economically unable to work. But the workers in the Bureau have started their activities in behalf of the patient long before this need arises. worker ready to advise and assist in its profitable employment. And the Bureau for the Handicapped maintains an employment department-through which the social worker is enabled to render substantial aid to the needy convalescent. Three clinics are conducted under supervision of the Social Service Bureau in Harlem Hospital. Pediatric, Pre-Natal and Cardiac and they are supervised by workers on Miss Betz staff. Three Clinics, Operated. Pediatric clinics are held daily. Miss Evelyn Pitter, R.N., being in All Are Graduate Nurses. Each worker is of course, a graduate and registered nurse, although their contact with the patient is not that of the regular nurse. The social workers visit the hospital wards daily, looking after needs of the ill, and providing quinquefalency devolving upon the visiting doctor, interne or ward nurse. As resume of the work of the Social Service Bureau of Bellevue and Allied Hospitals, of which the ill, the hospital Bureau, define the hospital as follows: "The general welfare work of the Bureau has consisted mainly in looking after; convalescents who, when leaving the hospital, had exhausted practically 'all their resources, were weak in body and mind, had lost all time, and who needed crutches, braces, or other appliances." In a foreword to the report referred to, Dr. John' J., McGaith, chairman of the hospital board of trustees, says: "The function of social service is the investigation and relief of the misery and distress that go hand in hand with illness. Social service is the Angel of Mercy that represents the big charitable heart of the community, and helps go into the life of distress in the sick mother, on the aged father, giving encouragement and relief. Social service helps advice and assistance comforts and directs those unable to help themselves. It is timely aid it often prevents a breaking up of the home. Social service knows no call but that of Helf, Dus, and Service." .1.1 Solving Vital Problems. In a talk with Miss Betz, in her office in Harlem Hospital, she told cases where, with mother and father, either or both, disabled, sick or dead, the social workers have provided for the placement of helpchildren where they would be properly nourished and trained. Witnesses were implicated through illness or by accident, and the burden of home-keeping is thrown on the shoulders of the remaining parent, the Social Service comes in, with a helping hand to see that the children are looked after until the burden lightens. Now are the problems faced in the bureau, and the splendid efficiencies of the consecrated work-room, shown in what is being accomplished. The age earlier that has lost his job while old or the worker whose wages are not sufficient for the care of his family, finds the social "There was a time when my health was not so good," says Mr. Miles Hopkins, of Callettaburgh, Ky. He was taken from gas pumps. My system was saturated with poison which was not properly eliminated. From time to time I had severe headache. I felt sluggish and dull. I knew of Black-Draught as a medicine for CONSTIPATION so I thought I would try it. For a while I took a small dose every night until my dose of the a culmated poison. "I gained in weight and my general health was good. That experience of Black Draught. I kept my home and when I began to feel lifeless and when I take a dose, after that I took a dose, I tried to keep my system cleaned, and I find Black Draught a great aid." Thedford's BLACK-DRAUGHT Pured Vegetable worker ready to advise and assist in securing profitable employment. And the Bureau for the Handicapped maintains an employment department, through which it is enabled to reader substantial aid to the needy convalescent. Three clinics are conducted under supervision of the Social Services Pediatric Pre-Natal and Cardiac, and they are supervised by workers on Miss Beet's staff. Three Clinics Operated. Pediatric clinics are held daily, Miss Evelyn Pitter, R.N., being in charge on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, with Miss Mary McDonough, R. N., taking charge Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays. Children under 14 are examined and treated for all ordinary diseases; others after examination, weighing, etc., are sent according to the doctor's instructions, confugious, skin or clinical clinics. Pre-Natal Clinics are held Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday, with Miss Hazel Hotelhiksis, R. N., in charge. Expectant mothers, on application, are queried as to social and medical history, given the Wasserman blood test, and placed under supervision during the prenatal period and while in the hospital. Children whose cases which require it, social service contact continues even after the mother and child have been discharged from the hospital. In this division of the Bureau, a vexing problem is often encountered in providing for other children in the family where the mother has to go to the hospital and the father is compelled to keep at his daily employment. Is it acceptable to children of Shah nurseries; for夜床 or night care of children. This makes each case an individual problem, with the Social worker giving individual consideration to each case. In the Cardiac Clinic, Mrs. Jessie Levy, R.N., in charge, held Mondays at 1 p. m. for children, and on Wednesday at 7 p.m. for adults, there is a longer contact with the patient, due to the character of the ailments. There are a larger number of regular patients and most of them are children suffer from a variety of and valvular weaknesses. Some one of the clinics for years. Adults are more careless in attending clinics than the children, says Mrs. Levy due to their inclination to keep going as long as possible without interruption of their daily duties. Special Employment Sought. In these cases, a special effort is made to secure suitable employment for the patient, and in this respect the Bureau for the Handicapped cooperates by providing opportunities for the learning of a suitable job, the ability of the patient at the School for Crippled and Disabled Man. Care for the convalescent is a vital need and again the Bureau is handicapped by a lack of suitable convalescent home facilities, many cases, the Bureau sends children not as satisfactory as a specially equipped home would be. The cardiac child is cared for in its public school studies by a special class at P. S. P. 39- P. 255 Jasht 125th street, at 14 years of age, after the optional Guidance Committee, 122 East 25th street, for advice as to kind, of work suitable to the child's physical condition. These classes are conducted at the Manhattan Trade School, Annex. The social worker gives close and careful supervision to the patient, and by furnishing nourishing food, medicine and other necessities as their needs may require. The social service workers are all city employees, and the city supplies quarters, medicines, medical attendance while the patients are in the hospitals. But the real service given in homes and in follow-up through contributions from the public to the Harlem Hospital Social Service Committee, of which Mrs. Lewis Iselin is chairman, City institutions cannot, under the law, receive charitable contributions, but the Committee has no such hurt.

In summing up the present needs of the Bureau, Miss Bets said that one of the most vital requirements now is the service of intelligent capable women as volunteer workers in the clinics: Women of ability who have interest in the work and who can spare an hour or so each day can be of great service they will help in this particular. And that in the same time, the suggestion is made for the most of those philanthropically included that any contributions for this service can be made direct to Miss Bets at her office in Harlem Hospital. Reports of a Year's Work. A recapitulation of the annual report of the Social Service Department for 1926 shows that Miss Beta and her four workers handed 5,388 cases, 408 of which were intensive. Home, visits totalled 1,876, with 349 of miscellaneous appliances; including braces, crutches and furnished 131 patients, 10 were supplied with eye glasses and 611 were given temporary financial aid. Follow-up supervision after hospital care was given to 1,332 maternity patients, and 1,633 of the same class of patients were referred to hospital or clinic. Sister Childs placed in place while parents were in hospital, and employment was sought for 82, with 58 recorded as being provided for, 133 adults and 72 children were given convalescent care, while 25 acute and chronic cases had to be sent to other hospital. Evidence of the thoroughness with which the social service workers look after their charges is seen in the record which shows that of the 5,388 cases taken under care, only 195 had to be referred to other agencies.

SATURDAY MARCH 12, 1922 Curtier was chairman. The association also re-elected as president Benjamin J. Davis, editor of the Atlanta Independent and the Republican National Committee, from Georgia. Under these circumstances, it is only fair to presume that Editor Vann succeeded in putting one over when Editor Davis was not watching the ball. However, as the editor of the Atlanta Independent as well as the National Committee, from Georgia, has gone upon record as heartily in favor of the renomination of Calvin Coolidge for President to succeed himself, it is safe to presume that the Georgia delegates will stand fast by their leader and cast the full vote of that state in the national convention for the candidate of their choice. How far the recommendation of the National Press Association will affect the usual partisan affiliations of the remainder of the Negro press remains to be seen. As an indication of the growing independence of the race in politics this pronouncement of the Press Association may mean much or little, according to how it is carried out in practical demonstration. DISFRANCHISEMENT IN SENATE FILIBUSTER The subject of the disfranchisement of the Negro vote in the South, which of late years has been so sediulously avoided by Democrats and Republicans alike, was again brought to the front, as a ready means of helping out the filibuster against the investigation of the Senate against the investigation of the Senate coming to a vote on the resolution to authorize the special committee headed by Senator Reed of Missouri, from continuing its investigation in the methods used in the election of the Republican Senators in Pennsylvania and Illinois. The Washington correspondent of the New York World, in a special despatch, old how the filibuster was worked by minutes and hours. On Wednesday at 6:36 P.M. Senator Reed of Pennsylvania, who with Senators Moses of New Hampshire and Wadsworth of New York, led the filibuster to use up the time of the session without allowing a vote on the resolution. began another speech, reading 1926 election returns in Southern States, alleging disfranchisement of Negro vote and sought "to bait Southern Senators to reply and add to time wasted." At 7 A.M., the next morning, Senator Edge of New Jersey took up the disfranchisement question where the Pennsylvania Senator had left off. At 9 A.M., after a call for a quorum had been made and the absentees rounded up by the sergeant at arms, Senator Edge resumed his account of the Negro voting question in Texas. This all goes to show that the members of the United States Senate are thoroughly conversant with the methods used to suppress the suffrage in the South, contrary to the spirit and letter of the Constitution and its amendments. But the only use they make of this knowledge is to proclaim these facts as a means of political controversy, so as to consume time in the carrying out of a filibuster. This has been the practice of the Senate since the time when James G. Blaine of Maine used his great influence to defeat the Force bill, which would have provided the means of enforcing the terms, of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth amendments. Neither of the two Senators who spoke at such length to illustrate the manner in which the suffrage is suppressed in the Southern States, would father or support any practical measure to enforce the right of every citizen to cast a ballot and to have it honestly counted. All this talk about the suppression of the suffrage merely to waste time and to prevent an investigation of the methods used to carry elections and primaries in such Northern States as Pennsylvania and Illinois. The whole point of the proceeding was that Republians senators tamely acquiesce in the occasion of the suffrage in the South, because they mistakenly think that the votes of Negroes only are concerned. But Democrats are not so amenable, hence despite their own election practices in the South, they object to any manipulation of the vote against their interests in the States of the North. It is high time that Republican Senators and Representatives took a more serious view of this question of the suppression of the suffrage in the South. The use of money to influence elections in the North may constitute a grave evil and threaten the integrity of republican institutions, but it does not equal in its extent and gravity the menace to the nation involved in the permanent establishment of an oligarchy in the South. Through this means the whole government is placed, in the power of a minority, whose rule is based on racial intolerance and domination by fraud and force at the polls. The subject is too serious to form the basis for farcal speeches in a Senatorial filibuster. The denial of the vote to the Negro in the South reacted to the disadvantage of every member of the Senate, when it was made material for a filibuster without any genuine intention to redress the wrong. PRESS AND POLITICS In his account of the annual meeting MISCEGENATION BILLS. A curious feature of aborted legislation in many of the Eastern and Northern states is the introduction of bills in the various legislatures forbidding the intermarriage of blacks and whites. Last year a bill was introduced in the New York legislature by Senator Webb of New York, making the marriages of blacks and Negroes, felonies, but it died in Senate. This year in Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Jersey and Pennsylvania, similar measures have been introduced only to meet with the same fate. It would be curious to know the agency that instigates the offering of such bills that there does not appear to be any amount of public sentiment behind them. In case of the bill offered in New York it was thought at the time that was prompted by the Rhineland case. If another marriage of a sixteen year old at Dutchhess Junction to a Negro woman, but outside of these two cases, few unions that annually occur between whites and blacks are regarded with indifference by the members of both states not immediately concerned. As a result it would seem that intermarriage of the two races is less frequent than twenty-five years ago, despite the fact that every single more freely than was possible at that time. Editor Ira T. Bryant of the Young Allenite, published at Nashville, Tenn., disputes the propriety of the Harmon award, recently made to a bishop of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, for distinguished service to the race of which he is a member. In fact, the irate editor of the Young Allenite went further in the February issue of his paper, and in headlines running across the page proclaimed: "Harmon Award Means Nothing Here. Puts Premium on Ministerial Peonage, Robbery of Laymen. One-man Government that's Contraven to Law of the Church. Return of Bishops Un-Methodistic Harmon Committee Should Investigate Flibrida Rule." Editor Bryant charged that the Bishop to whom this award was given, "is a heartless, arrogant, brutal despot, and one of the biggest grafting brutes ever elected to the episcopacy of any church." He continued: We make this charge and give it circulation several days in advance of the Bishop's Council that meets in the district February 17th, and which we plan to attend. We make it in the full knowledge that it is libulous in the absence of proof. His methods for raising the question are not known, but Jesse James, one uses the force of his appointing power, the other the muzzle of a gun. His claim is as spurious as the rascal who wins literary distinction, with a plagiarized instrument. He is a brutal curse of the foreign type who thinks himself superior to the native. He can pauperize the ministry and rook the laymen, and that there, be none among us with the gust to defy him. He surrounds himself with a bunch of puppets who dare not offer the Lord's Prayer without first consulting him. These, well-meaning men would not think of us as a threat, but with this award, ye, in practice, and in heart there is positively no room for choice—the sole difference is that one is in the penitentiary and the other should be there. In Massachusetts the miscegenation was taken more seriously than in some of the other States, it being fought vigorously by the National Association under the Advancement of Colored People under the leadership of Butter R. Willis, president of the Boston Branch because the most telling argument advanced against the measure was a statement submitted by Moorfield Storey, president of the association, and eminent lawyer, in which he said: "If there is any objection to unions between the two races, a bill to forbid marriage is not the way to prevent it. All through the south the races mix, as is shown by the number of mulattoes, and that they naturally come together is shown by the multitude of descendants from such relations. They will continue to do so, and no law will prevent it. It is certainly better that their relations be kept separate, the colored man should have the same 'protection' which is given to her, white sister than, that she should be at the mercy of the white seducers such a law as is proposed is a long step backward and downward, and it would be a disgrace to Massachusetts, if it is not devised overwhelmingly." This is, pretty rough stuff to issue from a highly respected lay official of a religious denomination through a church organ printed for the education of the young, relating to one of the spiritual heads of the same denomination. If the charges made are true, or are capable of proof, as the author of them asseverates, there should be some official method of hearing and determining the truth. This matter of making charges against the bishops is not only getting monotonous, but it is undermining the respect, and confidence of the community at large not only in the bishops who are charged with such misconduct, but in the church which tolerates and supports such conditions. The church must clean house if it expects to survive and retain respect of its own members, as well as that of the outside world. Miscegenation, whether forbidden or permitted by the statutes, has existed in many States, especially south of Mason and Dixon's line, since the first arrival of Africans in this country. This was recognized by the laws of Maryland as the back as 1681, as told by Dr. George B. Bragg, in his "Men of Maryland." This act was passed making children born of white women and black men free-labor laws) forbade the marriage of children to black or mulatto slaves, Major Powell, head of the Anglo-Saxon movement in Virginia, is authority for the statement that miscegenation has been far in that State, that a large percentage of the white population is related to the Negro race. The late Ben Williams told the South Carolina legislature once, that if it lessened the percentage of Negro blood that allowed one to be allowed as white, it would affect the first families in the State. In Louisiana the birth registrar were burned in some parishes, to prevent any awkward revelations as to the classification by color of the ancestors of those of the present generation, who are rated as white. MAKING BETTER LAWYERS. There is a movement on foot among the legal fraternity to insist upon further restrictions in the admission of lawyers to practice by raising the qualifications for law students. It has been suggested that a college degree, or at least two years study at some college, be required before permitting the student to take up the study of law. The reason for raising the requirements is assigned to the lack of general mental equipment found among candidates for admission to the bar. Although able to pass the technical examination on legal subjects, they were found to be sadly deficient in general knowledge and mental culture. Misregulation has progressed so far in the taking of the races in this country that the passage of any further laws on the subject would be a case of locking the stable door after the horse has gone. This is especially so in the South, if we are to accept the testimony of opponents of the practice of racial mixing. Instead we move anti-incarceration laws in the southern States, there should be one marriage and divorce law for the whole country, wiping out all color discrimination on this subject and regulating the whole course of marriage and divorce, on the basis of equal and exact justice, irre- PRESS AND POLITICS. In his account of the annual meeting of the National Negro Press Association, held last month at Chicago, Lester A. Walton told the World that one of the recommendations made at this, its twenty-eighth, meeting, was that the Negro press shall take no part in partisan politics, but await political developments and deal with issues as they best serve the interests of the whole group. The remarkable thing about this recommendation was that it was among those formulated by a committee of which Robert L. Vann, editor of the Pittsburgh This lack of cultural training and general information is held by the older members of the profession to be at the root of the lack of mental calibre of the average lawyers turned out today. It is charged that they lack professional ethics, looking upon their profession solely as a means of money getting, honestly if possible, but to be gotten even if it requires the sharpest kind of sharp practice. A retainer of substantial amount is all that is required to make them take a case, regardless of whether it involves murders or perility in the course of its trial. How effective is college course would be in correcting this lack of culture and ethics in possible practitioners of the law, can be left to the imagination of those who have come into contact with the finished material, turned out of our modern institutions of learning. Before some of these hard-boiled products of eclectic and elective courses, the ordinary Tombs bail chaser would appear as a soft-hearted philanthropist. Nevertheless, there is no harm in trying to make the profession better and safer for the layman, who is at times placed in jeopardy of his life and pocketbook through the machinations of A Belated Tribute Editor of The New York Age: Returning here after an absence of eight weeks, and looking over back issues of your great publication, I was made intelligent rela- tion to your recent inspiring anniversaries. My College duties and lectures have-called me recently from the usual contacts and I have been out of touch with many important race events. Even though late, please accept my hearty thanks, and may many years be added to your notable racial uplift services, and a fuller American citizenship. Sincerely Yours, JAMES EDW. MASON Geo. Ford Defends His Position On Porter's Union (Continued From 'First Page') gone before me," and draws a comparison between the Negro and American Indian, saying that the latter might, have "used some of the diplomacy that the negro Negro used" with advantage to the Red Man. Mr. Ford's reply to Mr. Crosswail is given below: Editor of The New York Acad. In The Age of February 26, Mr. Frank R. Crosswail attempts to answer an interview granted by your paper to me. With reference to Mr. Crosswail's remarks I have several things to say. An Attempt at Humor. Mr. Crosswailth attempts to make light of my plan to erect a monument to the late George M. Pullman, to organize a countermovement to the Brotherhood, and to start an investigation to ascertain what Mr. Kan dolph and others are doing with the funds collected from the porters. It is quite clever. on the part of Mr. Crosswailth and others he represents to make humorous a serious remark that strikes or may strike home. Mr. Crosswailth attempts to answer three propositions in my article, yet in his entire answer he says nothing with reference to the three propositions that he sets out to prove. He asks the question, whether or not I am really a Pullman porter. I have been a Pullman porter for about thirty years, and have been with the Pullman Company long enough to realize the value of the position which I hold. I know that if it is not for the best interests of the Pullman porter, or for the race, to permit outsiders to interfere, with the Pullman Company and its employees. Mr. Randolph is not a-Pullman porter, and I do not believe that he ever was one. The men ahead of this Brotherhood, movement are agitators who are looking forward to filling their pocketbooks at the expense of the President of the Brotherhood Company. If the men who are the heads of the Brotherhood were interested in labor and labor movements from the racial standpoint they certainly might have begun in some organization or trade where there is discrimination; but why interfere with the employment of men are employed, and a position that could easily be filled by men of other races? Think Porters Are Rare Mark. I assume that the reason for their starting with the Pullman Company was that they felt that the Pullman Porter was the easiest mark for their individual pocketbooks; that he was the most successful and appeal made to outsiders who know nothing concerning the Pullman Company can be made in a much stronger manner. The fact is that the American Federation of Labor is seeking to use the Pullman porters, through Mr. Randolph and others connected with the Pullman Company; always the Negro's the cat's paw for the white man. I personally believe that the Pullman porters are as fine a body of hard working men as can be found AGENTS WANTED Has your home town a New York. Age representative?

What is especially needed among a certain class of lawyers is a stronger sense of fidelity to the client by whom they have been retained. Instances have been reported to The Age, where lawyers have sold out their clients to the opposing side, because of greater monetary inducements offered. Certain lawyers have also been accused of retaining money paid to them for the benefit of their clients, instead of promptly turning it over to the proper parties. The practice of honesty, and square dealing might do more to make better lawyers than the two years or more of college training suggested. At any rate, it is worth trying. and I am proud to be 'one of' them. Any Negro or body of Negroes who knocks the Pullman Company does so because of ignorance. The Pullman Company supports thousands of cofedored men, women and children. Personally I love the Pullman Company because I believe that anyone who tries to make trouble between the two races should be squelched for their common good. Conductora .Look For .Tip. Mr. Crosswathe asks whether I have ever heard of the conductor's organization. I certainly have, and I can also say that apparently they are not, satisfied with conditions, and are always looking for tips. I recall that in Chicago, during President American Federation of Labor attempted to organize the Pullman shops and attempted to strike. Governor Autilkid sympathized with the strikers. The Pullman Company called upon the Federal Government for aid and the result was troops garrisoned in the streets, guns were, planted in the streets, the strike was defeated, although the anarchists were strong in Chicago at that time. Mr. Randolph and his group promise the porters $150 a month salary, with the abolishing of tips, and Mr. Randolph himself knows that he can not force the Pullman Company to pay that kind of wages, but the other two are more nothing to the other. The Pullman Company from placing, men in the positions now held by the porters and I would venture to say: that if the job paid a high salary white men would be after the job within ten minutes after the salary was declared to be raised. The Pullman Company has already placed a number of Filipinos on some of the cars. The porters who are dissatisfied with the preset working company are told that they could easily better themselves by applying elsewhere. They certainly are not forced to work for the Pullman Company. **Union Bad For Poor Men.** On the other hand, they have no right to kick over the positions of hundreds of other men who are content to work under present conditions. I don't think labor unions are good for poor,矮, white or colored, especially colored. I am sorry, I don't think children raised in colored ideals. They should be taught along the lines of Booker T. Washington, who was conservative. My personal advice to all colored people is to keep away from these radical ideas. Mr. Crosswalth, in his article, speaks of me as "Breer Ford." I am positive that if it had not been for, such individuals as myself, and the colored men and wounded who gone before me, colored people today would not occupy the position that they do nor would they have as, colored men, and if the American Indian had used some of the diplomacy that the older Negro used in this country, and had been more conservative and less radical, he might be a actor in American civilization today. I know a porter who was educating himself at Syracuse University who saved a thousand dollars in one year while he was in school. A lady asked me to get her son a position as porter on the road for the summer session. Through the kindness of Mr. Mitchell, my superintendent, he was employed for the season. His mother told me that he saved $300 in the season. Praise the bridge that carries you over. His so-called 'Brotherhood is real' the bridge of Douglass leader. As Frederick Douglass said in one of his speeches, "The Republican Party is the ship, all else is the sea." I say to the colored people, "The Pullman Company is your friend, stick to/the Pullman Company." Portera Have Made Good. I know hundreds of colored porters who have their own property. The Pullman, Company gives you the opportunity; if you don't take advantage of it it is your own fault. I have a friend runig out in Chicago who has a rent roll of $200 per month; he has been a Pullman Porter for thirty-five years. I 'took dinner with another Pullman porter' friend, of mine, running out of Grand Central, who lives in Jersey City. After dinner, he took me through his beautiful home and garage and then around the city and showed me a half-dozen houses that NOTICE!

A ministerial contributor to the Star of Zion announced the interesting discovery that "Bootleggers Want Dry Law" He said. "Speaking of a referendum on the prohibition law, it is almost certain the dry-law would not be, repeated if it were submitted to the people for that purpose. While there is a lot of sentiment to the return of the open saloon, there would not be a lot of the hotdogs and the hotdoggers. The bootlegging interests of the country (and their name is legion) are as bitterly opposed to the return of the licensed solomons as dry" forces ever "dare to be. Bottlekeepers are doing a ruining business. Thousands of hoes and hotdogs are overnight by the manufacture and sale of hoes and they don't want their business interfered with by the desire of the "wets" for the open saloon. If the matter is submitted to a vote of the people, thousands of hoes be put at the disposal of "drys" fight the repeal. The whiskey interests "make strong bedfellows" too sometimes. Of course this phase of the situation has been recognized before but few preachers or anti-saloon advocates have been frank enough to acknowledge it. "Strong bedfellows" is perhaps better than the more familiar version of "strange bedfellows." Commenting on the establishment of a new library the Ashville Enterprise had this note of appreciation. Education has cast a sort of crystal mance over North Carolina. Having assumed leadership over her sister Southern States in education, every knowable means is being expended for the benefit of its colored inhabitants. Lastly, among the new additions the Negro Library, Henderson. Winston-Salem and Ashville each boasts one the dominant of the Ashville Library clusters in the field elated over a hope long held, and now a reality. But we are not to sit down and he satisfied to know that we have a library. The question naturally arises in the mind of some of us, how are we to show our appreciation for it. The only knowable way of expressing ourselves will be to patriciate our library, while supported by the State and made possible by the State we are not abuse those facts. Even if we are called to assist in its upkeep it will be our duty to respond. That is the proper spirit of appreciation, which combined with the determination to use and not abuse library privileges, will make it a source of pleasure and profit. Referring to an editorial which appeared in the Cleveland Call, alleging discrimination against colored people as jurors in the Municipal Court. he owned. He has a wife and child and started with the Pullman Company over twenty years ago, the same time I did, with nothing. In fact, he lent me the money to buy my uniform. He is an already well fixed in a business of my own. I was married thirty years and had an invalid whom I took good care of. She was one of the sweetest women that ever lived. When she died, she was buried from Campbell's Furnal Parlor at Broadway and 60th street. That doesn't look like the act of a beggar, as Mr. Crosswash says the beggars, as Mr. Randolph begging the Pullman, porters for more money, more money all the time. Mr. Randolph advised the colored porter not to purchase Pullman stock. I have purchased some of this stock which pays me a dividend of 8 per cent, while the bank only pays a immanent per cent, per annum. Every Pullman stock would go down on Wall street and be sold much of this stock as he can afford. (Signed) GEORGE L. FORD. Penn. Terminal District, Pullman Company. (From New York Herald Tribune) While Tod Slonn has received the bulk of the credit for introducing what British turi experts on a horse's back on a stick" seat on a horse's back on a stick" seat to shorten his suit's height country was the Negro rider Willis Sims, whose recent death Chief Justice Dempsey wrote a letter to the editor in which he said, "The Jury Ballill informs me that most of the colored people whose names have been drawn during the working class and did not leave the working class have personal knowledge of one colored woman whose name was drawn who asked to be excused. The Ballill demurred because she appeared to be an intelligent woman and a desirable jitter. It developed that she was a school teacher and in view of the fact that we do not compete with teachers to serve the public, we came along without them she was given the same, consideration as other school teachers are given and was excused. No discrimination is permitted in this Court against any person because of race, creed, color or nationality, and I know of instances where judges and others have some colored people, who were unfortunate and victims of circumstances. This letter was printed in the Call without comment. The Colored Embolmer, is published monthly in Chicago in the interest of the Negro funeral directors of the country. Under the heading "What We Shall Contend For," it stated. The abolishing of Sunday Funerals. Acceptance of assignments by all insurance companies is given by beneficiaries to funeral directors and the payment of burial claims by secret societies in thirty days. Establishing and maintaining a credit by Negro funeral directors, State and National Associations. The understanding and full application of ethical practices by one funeral director with the other and the most commendable dealings and service with the public in the care of death—elevation of the profession as our duty to the profession as a whole, and an appeal to the white practitioner to allow Negro funeral directors in each center to bury their dead without contending with them for such rights. These objects all appear to be reasonable enough, and as much in the interest of the public as of the funeral directors or undertakers. We notice that the new designation of morician does not seem to have been adopted by this publication. Referring to the resolution of feeder by Senator Harris to investigate gate the 'sale of' Federal jobs in Georgia, the Atalanta Independent said: There is far more proof in the South of the suppression of votes; stuffing ballot boxes, juggling registration machinery to keep Negroes from voting than there is of whites; the fact that nothing is clear in the South, why do the politicians fight so stubbornly investigation of the disfranchisement of the Negro in the South? If the call for investigation is in good faith, why not go into the South? If the call for investigation is right, why not apply the provision of the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments to the constitution and reduce representation in Congress in proportion as the rights of citizens to vote, is abiding, cunning and mischievous devices? Republicans will go fifty-fifty on this program with the Democrats. The present organization in Georgia accepts the investigation and challenges the Democrats to investigate their program of disfranchisement and nullification of the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments to the federal constitution. As Editor, Benjamin J. Davis of the Independent, is the National Committeeman from Georgia his utterance on this question has the weight of authority vived recollections of the disastrous English siege campaign of the late Richard Crooker and his friend Michael F. Dawner, one of the shrewdest turmifers this country has ever known. Sims, like Isaac Murphy, the most finished horseman the United States has ever known, had indiana blood in his veins. He hadn't the light hands or perfect seat of Murphy, who was a generation sheaf of him, but he possessed an alertness and persuasiveness that made him a leader in his chosen trade when there were twenty-five of first-class horsemen in the field for his duties. He contributed greatly to the success of the Dwyer stable here, and his horsemanship brought him prize when he went abroad with the Croaker-Dwyer confederacy. Sims rode some here after his British campaign, and was popular with horsemen, and public alike in a period when Negro jockeys not a parity, as they are today, were Negro riders of their day included. Among them Almos Clayton, "Soup" Perkins, Tony Williams, Jimmy Lee and André Hamilton, and there were other of acknowledged skill. Oftimes there would be half a clown in the same race. There were more than half a dozen of white boys, and they met at terms of equality both in the jockey's room and on the racecourt. While Negro boys are as popular as ever for exercising, we get a chance to make good races. When a dark skinned jockey comes nowadays, his subject is of common interest to accept him at the passing of the Negro from the American turf.

C.—In a financial statement of the cost of Athletics at Howard University from July 1, 1926 to January 31, 1927, Dr. Emnett J. Scott, business manager of the Board of Athletics Control, calls attention to the aband of that institution that athletics at Howard has not been a paying proposition, Dr. Scott's statement was published in The Howard Alumnus for February. The championship Howard football team for the past season was not so successful from a financial standpoint. Out of seven games played only the Howard-Lincoln game gave Howard, a net profit. The income from this contest was $7,970 and the expenses were $8,287. Howard received $6,724.887 of the balancing and Lincoln $4,824.24. The biggest losses during the football season were sustained at the Morehouse College and Fisk University games. Howard $1,100.20 in the Morehouse game and $1,064.04 on the Fisk game. In basketball 'only games with the Athenians and Morgan College show, net profits.' The Morgan College game on January 8 of this year netted $101.22. Howard has played Morgan, twice since that time and the last game in Baltimore, which 'was not included in the present report, is said to have been an even bigger success than the one of January 8. All together Dr. Scott's report shows a deficit of $6,794.58 for six months ending January 31. Dr. Scott concludes his statement by saying "A report by the Athletic Association of Lincoln, Hampton, Tuskegee, Fisk, and Wilberforce will doubtless show a deficit in all athletic activities, the minor sports particularly, except only football. In the case of Howard University an Access appurity only for the Howard-Lincoln game. In the case of these other institutions, I have no doubt that they too will show an excess of income only in connection with some two or three of their outstanding games played on their home campus." In view of this situation the question is asked, would it not be good business for Howard and the members of the C. I. A. A. to renew athletic relations for the mutual good of all. St. Nicholas Golf Club Planning Big Season Members of the St. Nicholas Golf Club are eagerly awaiting the opening of the golfing season and are looking forward to offering numerous competition to the other clubs on the Metropolitan district. Although organized only a year ago the club already has a fine record. In the N. Y. Municipal Golf Association Tournament, at Van Courtlandt Park last summer, George Aaron defeated several opponents and won the right to compete in the 36 hole finals against Joe Ford. In the Labor Day tourney at Shady.Rest, J. R. Harvey and the winner and his club mate, Britts was winner up. J. R. Harvey and the club championship at the Pelham Bay Park links, the past season.

All interested golfers are invited to attend this meeting and join the club. "Club Alabama" Revue At The Lafayette Theatre When the "Club. Alabama" revue was at the Lafayette Theatre a few months ago, it scored one of the biggest hits ever made by a show in Harlem. The management of this theatre is bringing this revue to Harlem next week in a return engagement—this time it is the new version of this show which was signed by Elida Webb. It has had unusual success in Philadelphia, Washington and Baltimore. Lotte Heck's rendition of several ballads is one of the features of the revue. Other leaders in the cast are: Members of the Lincoln and Royal Giants are returning to town and awaiting the call of their managers for the opening of the pre-league season, which is expected to begin about March 27. One of the players returning from Porto Rico this week is Arthur "Rube" Chambers, star left hander of the Lincoln Giants pitching staff. Chambers has been the leading pitcher in Porto Rico the past winter and is looking forward to his best season with the Lincoln. From present indications organized baseball will be more prosperous in the East this season than in the West. This is partly due to the prolonged illness of Andrew "Rube" Foster and the present lack of leadership among the heads of the western league. It is also due to the emergence of a more eastern schedule to 120 games and the selection of Attorney Isaac Nutter as the president of the League. A fight is brewing between the East and West over certain players alleged to be under contract to the Western organization. These players were with the Detroit and Indianaapolis Club's last season but were not paid any salaries for the last month they played. Eastern magnates who would like to secure the services of some of these men contend this breach of contract on the part of the owners make the players free agents. The Western organization says, the players in question are still the property of the League and they have ordered sales of the forming, Cleveland, Club. The players, themselves, are dissatisfied and would like to be declared free agents. They insist they will not play in that league again until they are paid back salaries. Just what the outcome will be remaining to be seen. Alexander Pompez, owner and manager of the Cuban Stars, announces that there is no truth to reports that M. Dihigo, all round star of the Cubans, will not be with his club this season. Dihigo, he says, must play with the Cubans if he plays in the U. S. at all. He is expected to arrive in the U. S. with the rest of his teammates, about the first of April. Jean Starr, Teddy Peters, Clarence Robinson, Johnny Vigal, Leventeor Paulis, Sanette Reyera, Jimie Mordecai and Adele Williams.

Syracuse Relay Team With Cecil Cooks, Sets Intercollegiate Record The principal feature of the sixth championship games of the futter-collegiate A A. of A., held in New York on Saturday evening, March 5, was the establishing of a new record by the one mile relay team of Syracuse University. The flying four of Syracuse, through the clever running of Cecile Cooke, former holder of the national 440 yard/title and star athlete at Dr. Wiff Clinton High School, cracked the old mark for the varsity mile relay when they covered the distance in 3:21-10. This bettered the record held by Georgetown University since 1925 by 4-10 of a second. Cooke is the anchor man for the Syracuse team and his running has made the Orange mile relay team the sensation of the indoor season. They are the favorites at all the meets this season. Cooke completes his collegiate training this spring and expects to return to Harlem and enter upon a business career in the real estate field.

It demands restlessness and recklessness have struck terror in many a parental bosom, and broken many a heart. Yet youth has its side of the question as well, and in "Wandering Girls," the Columbia picture which opened yesterday at the Roosevelt Theatre, there is a plea for more understanding of youth, and more consideration of parents. This is not a preachy picture however Dorothy Howell's story moves along so swiftly under the title direction of Ralph Ince, to make it anything but a thoroughly absorbing picture. Ince, whether acting in or directing a picture, leages, the stamp of genuine skill on all the characters; and "Wandering Girls" is another tribute to his craftsmanship. The wandering daughter who causes all the fun and excitement is lovely Dorothy Resier, popular Columbia star. She plays a girl in a small town whose stern patents taboo all he love for dancing and gassey. The inevitable consequences follow. Misunderstood and soaked for her natural joy in life, she runs away, from home. Her adventures from that point on are thrilling and form the theme of the picture.

Acting and Life BY PERCY HAMMOND (In New York Herald Tribune) How different the actors are from the characters they vivify upon the stage. I watched Julius, Bledsoe, the Negro artist, impersonate a suffering "Carolina" colored man in the first uptown performance of "In Abraham's Bosom," and his tragic playing so upset me that I was glad that my ancestors were Abolitionists. As a boy I wept at many Uncle Tom shows, but none of them rent my feelings more than did this picture of the whiteness in humanity to the blacks. Mr. Bledsoe pretended, with great fidelity, to be a down-trodden Afro-American with longings to lift his fellows up. A sable martyr in a shirt of fire he discovered no sacrifice too painful to make for his race. He was, as one of his associates said, that pathetic things "nigger with a book." He worked and starved, his head was bowed and bloody and he went, not ignobly, to hell at the finish, having done the best he could to succon his persecuted brethren from serfdom. You can imagine one's surprise the next day when one read in the news of the theatres that Mr. Bledsoe for temperamental reasons had refused to appear in the second performance. Hiz "billige" had not been satisfactory to him, and rather than subject RENAISSANCE SEVENTH AVENUE Thursday and Friday, the Adolph Menjou In "BLA Sat., Sun., Mon., March "THE GREAT Warner Baxter, Neil Overture "Peer G BY ALL M The Renaissance Theatre DON DAVEN Now Playing This Week BROWN LASSE'S A Miniature Muscall Revue Also A Big Bill of Vaudeville In Addition Presented Exclusively First Photo P Thura, F T H Next W M. & S.

Here was a Negro actor who had perfectly symbolized a 'brave victim of racial persecution, suddenly transformed into a gentle summer admirer of mummies' and tanners. On the stage he had been humbly heroic as he pleaded, in the language of the Negro spirituals—'to let my people go' Away from it, he was just a proof human being, gaulous of his actors prerogatives. Mr. Bledsoe's ability to change his nature into his role adds further evidence to the suspicion that activity is an art, rather than a trick. As Professor Green's "In Abraham's Bosom" is being carried, toes up, from the Garrick to the storhouse, some regrets are appropriate. It belonged in the first flight? of the Brown-stud Dramas, since it asked an important question in a vivid, thrilling manner. It was played, even after Mr. Bledsoe's defection by a troupe of colored actors whose impersonations, perhaps were too true to be good.

Hampton Institute, Va.—An educational trip to Europe for teachers and others similarly qualified has been arranged for the coming summer under the auspices of the department of Hampton Institute, it was recently, announced by Dr. James E. Gregg, principal of the school.

Hampton Institute, it was stated, is responsible, for the selection of the party and for the educational program, and is in no way interested in the business arrangements, which have been placed in hands of an arrangement experienced in arranging student travel trips abroad. A. Ogden Porter, A. B., M. A.

Then Holland on June 24 will claim their attention and after two days in Amsterdam, with a side trip to the Island of Marken, the capita of Belgium will be visited. In Brussels, with a trip to the battlefield of Waterloo, the party will sail on July 1 from Boulonne, arriving in New York on July 8. The price of the tour, according to its manager, Arnold Graf of 110 East 42nd street, New York, is $390 and includes ocean travel third class, as is customary with student travel-study parties on the Hamburg American line railway travel package. Students meals a day during the trip; all excursions and sightseeing included in the itinerary; transfer of members and their baggage; tips and taxes while in Europe, and tuition for the course.

WITH Grace Giles' Dancing Dolls in "A Night in Danceland" Against British Intervention in China The following resolution was unanimously agreed, with acclamation of a Bombay meeting and similar resolutions were passed all over India and in the Council chambers, too. "This meeting of the citizens of Bombay desires to express the sympathy of the Indian people with the Great Chinese nation in life struggle which they are waging for their political and economic interests, and strongly protests against the proposal of the Government of India to send Indian troops for intervention in China and declares India's sense of humiliation at the use of her resources for the advancement of the humiliation at the use of her resources as capitalist Imperialism in the East. "This meeting calls upon all elected members of the Legislatures to signify their condemnation of the arbitrary use of InNn troops in a conflict for which India is not responsible. "This meeting further calls upon all members of India to discourage the policy of the Government by all proper forms of demonstrations, propaganda and protests, and de- Knights of Toussaint In National Council At Jacksonville, Fla Jacksonville. Fla.—The National Council of the Knights of Toussaint of the World ended its finesting here with a banquet, at which time a number of prominent business men and educators of the nation spoke. The banquet was held at the Knights of Toussaint Castle, 418 Davis street, and the principal address was delivered by the Governor, Ben. Stainahan, Ga. President of Georgia State Agricultural and Mechanical College. A Fitzholan Wallace, lounder and grand supreme ruler of the order, presided at the sessions of the council. In his annual report at the opening session on Monday morning he reviewed the work of the organization during the sixteen years of its operation. He told of its growth and development and reviewed the progress made during the organization has done work during its history, and at the close of his address appointed several committees. Among the outstanding committees were those on Inter-racial Relationships, Dilasters, and Relief, Orphanages and Hospitals, and a Knights of Toussaint Home for the Aged. A Commission on Education hearing on Knights of, Toussaint scholarships, to be awarded to Negro boys and girls in the study of Negro History was also appointed. Members of the commission are President J. R. E. Lee of Florida A & M. College, Tallahassee. Fl.; Bishop John Hurlig, President Benj F. Hubert, Georgia State A & M. College; Mrs. Mary. McLeod Bethune, Bethune-Cookin' College, Daytona Beach, Fl., and other. E. Church, Mrs. Bethune made a strong appeal to the members of the Knights of Toussaint to believe in the program of the organization. Dr. Matilda A. Evans, well known physician and club woman of Columbia, S. C., made a strong appeal to the women of the order of Susanne, the auxiliary of the Knights of Toussaint, to general Groot, the military unit of the organization, gave a military unit of the order, made an appeal for the younger men of the organization to join the uniform rank of the Knights of Toussaint. the convention of the Supreme Laws of the State in Charleston.

F A SINGLE INDIAN SO- DIER, A SINGLE INDIAN CIVILLA- TION, A SINGLE RUPEE, A SINGLE RAILROAD DIE- HARBOR IN, INDIA sort of military purpose in Council. The Government of India centently enacted a measure in the relative Council and passed a new牙齿 of public opposition. It was serious encroachment on the interest of the people, of this country, likely to have a very far-reaching consequences. The New Government succeeded in another of the old Press Act which was repealed in 1922, and the Repressive Law Commission constituted by the Government was presided over by Sir William Crescent, the then Home Minister of the Government of India. The new vision that was repeated was based in all matters within the previous Section 153 A of the Indian Press Code. The old one was repealed because it was a misrepresentation which had been past and was likely to be repeated again. The recent communal crisis with quarrels have been relied upon to publicification for the re-enactment of the old provision. But the action has been confined to religious or theological matters, not politically applicable to political and economic troversies. To give powers to the local government is practically a power to the same class of men as the Indian Nationists want to deceive and dispossess. The Government has used it in the past against the press and they will not be allowed to act against the men on political and economic questions. Take, for example, the question of the Indianization of service. Anything said or written against the Indian Civil Service is liable to be construed as promoting envoy between the two classes of His Majesty's subjects. Any strong criticism also be brought in the same context. To give power to the Executive to take action on a summary decision of such questions is extremely dangerous. The New Opium Policy of The Government of India It has become a matter of convention and tradition in the Emperor Department to try to obtain much revenue as possible and the old deceptive formula of "Malaise consumption" encourages and establishes that tradition. The executive Department is regarded as doing its duty, from a brilliant point of view, if the revenue is maintained, written Andrews in the magazine of Calcutta Adding further he states that while the highest authorities must take the sounder modern view and may eagerly wish to reduce opium revenue, it had evaded not yet been possible to impose that view upon the subordinates who really run the department. The general opinion there is was strong indeed, as a certain officer gets his promotion according to his official collection of revenue. The money standard still holds.

Eon Church on Thursday wieht THINGS SEEN, HEARD AND DONE AMONG PULLMAN EMPLOYES Tom Jones has been a Pullman porter for the past nineteen years. Fifteen of these years have been spent on one run. The natural conclusion that would come to mind is that the man is a well-balanced person. Up to several months ago, Jones had borne that reputation among his friends. Then there came a showdown. The showdown mirishes the story. Jones has been married for over twenty years. He and his wife were both rather young at the time of marriage. Their union has been blessed, or cursed, according to the point of view, with a large family of boys and girls. Husband and wife are still what might be formed young people. But so far as the woman is concerned, that description is a misnomer. The bloom of young womanhood has left her cheeks many years' since. The bearing of five children has extorted its toll. The man shows none of the effects of his twenty years of marital life. And, if allegations are true, he feels none. His feelings, whether imaginary or real, have brought about his fall; for Jones, so it is said, has given up the old love for a new one. That is a course of conduct which is somewhat common among persons who can afford it but not for those in Jones's circumstances. It cannot be done; that is, it cannot be done by the Pullman employee if his family objections. And that is what Jones's family has done. No corporation relishes the work of injecting itself into the domestic affairs of its employees. But when it has to be done, it is done effectively. Nowadays, most railroad companies take the attitude that the employee neglects his family is not the sort of employee that they want. This attitude may seem arbitrary to some persons, but whence one takes into consideration the vagaries of human nature, it becomes obvious that the attitude is a protection to the families of poor men which makes appeal to law unnecessary. Becoming more specific, the Welfare Department of the Pullitan Company owes its inception in a large measure to just this sort of attitude on the part of the company towards the families of its employees. Notwithstanding the fact that many of its porters have been misinformed regarding the true reasons for the establishment of a welfare agency, this department has been of inestimable help to the families of Pullman porters. But, like all missionary work, its mistakes are stressed, while its benefits are minimized. Now, in the case of Jones, the Welfare Department will not only be of help to the man's family, but if the man is inclined to be reasonable, it will be the medium of saving him from himself; for despite his fall from the path of connubial probity, Jones is a likable fellow, as well as a good worker. In the meantime, he is being allowed time to think the matter over. His friends believe that the enforced lay-off will cause him to return to sanity. Lack of funds, they say is an effective negative to new loves. Picked Up Here And There W H. Jackson, a veteran porter, who resided in the new community of Nepperhan Heights, died in Highland Hospital, Yonkers, N Y., on Thursday, March 3. In lieu of flowers, help from Perry's Understaking Establishment, this city, on Monday evening, March 7. Eugene Stoken, a well known member of the Pullman fraternity What is the commotion among the boys of the Swing Room about sick leave? Daily and hourly one may hear complaints of every description about official interpretation of that which seems, upon its face, a very simple question: "What is the man simple question the time when human evolution—by whatever theory you are pleased to accept—they have been beset with nondescript aches and pains. As time increased so did the aches and pains, until in this modern age they have reached a tumultuous crescendo. And it seems that O'Kers have been found to be aiding in the dying expression of human frailties by adding their, song of aches and pains to the grand chorus. Dusmay seized the Department upon learning of this, discovery. How could the mails 'be protected from such inroads? Postal officials, after years of sweat-producing mail had already safeguarded the thought of any and all heretofore expressed in part by that sublime motto etched into the stone front of the G. O. P.—contingencies, as expressed in part that sublime motto etched into the stone front of the G. P. O.—Neither rain, nor snow, nor gloom or night, delay these couriers, etc." And sandy had come in for their share of the work, here was a new world, to conquer! For a world of human ill and frail- Consternation Lavark subsided, self-defemination got its thought tables and set to work. Should a dlerk care with an ache or pain be arrested for an attempt to obstruct or delay the malfa? Should he be dropped as an undesirable? Was he a pain thief and subject to arrest for taking, for which he did not suffer? All he knew was he predemeditated what was more clear than aces and pains did not belong to I. O clerk to possess, and many their possession amounted to insufficiency—that bane of Postal-ton. But, perhaps, thought that narrow section of officialdom, some insultual, shrewd clerk might prove that he did own the eye or pain, what? That would of course matter the purpose in a bound rule that no person meant dishonesty. Then too, no rules would serve for the P.O. If O rules must always contain that elasticity that will stretch undesired all circumstances to the official post viewpoint. The radical section of officialism, following up application, persuaded all post official officials to agree that as clerks provided in acquiring the art of firearms, in time all clerks might learn to justify their possession of allache or pain, even both in a fight with them, or stand aside. The question having reached the point of emasque, officialdom then needed to call in the aid of Congress in the boo that that August in the New York District, has been reported as being on the sick list this week. W. C. Taylor, who, in conjunction with F. Price, a former Pullman conductor, is in charge of the Employment Bureau of the Pullman Company in New York, died on Monday, applicants for work in the Pullman service averaged about fifty men daily. The applicants, the said, were composed of men of all races under the sun, who didn't care, and who didn't obtain, so long as it was work body, by focusing its blinder-making attention upon the subject, would legislate the question out of existence. But, alas: Congress in one of its balky moments refused to blinder, but legislated surely upon the matter. After recognizing, by passage of the Sick Leave Law, that P. O. clerks might acquire ownership in aches and pains at various times. Congress then passed as adjunct to this law, the 14th Amendment guaranteeing that a clerk shall be D2 prived of such property except by the process of law. Next week I shall tell how Congress has been double-crossed by postal officialdom and explain the resulting commotion among P. O. clerks.

Denmark, S. C.—Farmers from Bamberg and adjacent counties have gotten into the habit of coming yearly, to Vorhees School for the Farmers' Conference, and when the 1927 Conference opened in Kennerly Hall, thirg were some 700 farmers' presge't to sing the opening hymn, hear the scriptures read by the school chaplean, the Rev. H. R. Moore, and to bow their heads as the Rev. M. C. H. Dillard-offered the opening prayer. In his opening address, Principal N. E. Blanton declared that the coming together this year was to discuss matters pertaining to the school, to share knowledge that the farmer should be able to when when and how they will sell, and what they will get for their products. Continuing, he said: "The results of this conference ought to mean better homes, better churches, better communities and better living." Various topics discussed during the morning session brought the men and women to the moon dinner with good appetites. This meal was served in the school dining hall and students exciting themselves to the guests were seated and served. Farming A High Calling. In the afternoon, the principal speaker was Dr. J. B. Pierce, who declared that farming is essential to humanity, and is a high calling "Don't allow anybody to make you ashamed of it," he urged. "What is better than producing cotton Cotton is superior to produceable. But the farmer's mistake is he has put too much effort into the production of farm crops and livestock, as such, and not enough in the education of his children. These (the children) are the greatest crops you can produce. If you neglect your children for your own benefit, you are just farming to make crops and livestock, you are on the wrong road from there. The real farmer, like any other man, works so that his family may have food, clothing, shelter, health, education, recreation, religion, friends. The farmer should provide all these, for he is lacking in short or any of these. If a farmer is hard time it is because of his own things, for the has more opportunities and targets to be what he wants than any other class of people. I know Maintain A Standard. "There is a standard in everything, and it should be our effort to come up to it. The man below the standard is odd. The farmer's wealth is his labor expressed in crops, livestock, and his children. He can ever thought that all of these leavers are at the time that they have become mature. As soon as children are large enough they leave, and his crops are consumed when they are matured. He disposes of the best of his livestock for ready cash which he is always need of. He should preserve some of what he has created to keep all of his children at home at home and keep some of them at home and keep them happy. "I want to congratulate you here at Mothers for these products living here before us. This is a safe farming. No cotton grower who does this first will suffer. Self-presentation is the first law of mankind, grow your home food. I grow cotton, tobacco and other money crops, but those who grow money crops first and trust to Providence for food will perish." Some of the prominent citizens to the Conference were Dr. R. S. Wilkinson, president of State College, Orangeburg; Harry Daniels, agent A. V. Farm Demonstration; Farm South Council; Prof. Whittaker, State College; Dr. F. R. Roberts, president of Friskishship College, Rock Hill, S. C.; Dr. L. R.
