Walsh of Massachusetts made a special trip to New York from his home in Boston on Sunday, March 27; to be the principal speaker at an educational mass meeting in the interest of the Cardinal Gibbons Institute at Ridge, Md. Senator Walsh is a member of the board of trustees of that institution and is intensely interested in the education of the Negroes of Southern Maryland. It is fitting that within a few miles of the Cardinal Gibbons Institute of religious tolerance was first established in this country, said the Senator. Also that the institute was named in honor of one of the greatest churchmen and Americans this country has produced. Cardinal Gibbons Institute was opened to students in October, 1924 with only thirteen pupils in attendance. At present there are 65 pupils, and a parochial school which is attended by boys and girls from the territory within a radius of five miles. There is also a well-organized program of extension work in agriculture and home economics to assist the colore He told the students twice of the Negroes in that section of Maryland, where there were no public schools. He appealed to the Negroes of New York and other cities, where they enjoy greater freedom, to get: behind those small schools in the South, much Cardinal John Hancock and their then by sending their children and financially. No one is more contemptible, said the speaker, than the person who is given an education and unusual opportunity and then turns his back on the less fortunate members of his race. He made the character and ability of Principal and Mrs. Victor Daniel, heads of the institution, declaring that he knew of no persons in the country better qualified to carry on this work than those now at the head of it. The school should have the supernate included, if for no other reason than the fact that it was established and is now being run entirely by Negroes.

Y.—The Court of Appeals, by a unanimous decision on March 29, denied an appeal by Leonard Kip Rhinelander, wealthy descendant of an old New York family, from the decision of the lower courts which had refused to annul his marriage to Alice Jones of New Rochelle. The highest court wrote no opinion, merely announcing it, had upheld the Appellate Division, which had sustained Supreme Court Justice Morchauser. The Rhinelanders were married October 14, 1924. A little more than a year later, Rhinelandaler alleged his wife had deceased him as to her Negro ancestry and had repatriated it to the Caucasus. The announcement formed a counsel, for Rhinelandaler argued that at no time was he told by his wife of her father's Negro ancestry and that the fact was actually withheld. Attorneys for Mrs. Rhinelandaler maintained her husband was aware during the court proceedings of her involvement that the girl's father was of Negro descent. After hearing of the decision of the Court of Appeals, Mrs. Rhinelandler announced at her home in New York that she would take initiative in future court actions, and record. Court Judge Samuel F. Swinburn, intimated that papers in a separation suit would be served on Rhinelander within a few days.

ACTRESS IS FREED ON CHARGE KILLING 2 NEGRO CHILDREN Claimed She Accidentally Started Auto On Trip Ending In Deaths It took a jury just ten minutes to decide to-day that Alice Zapira, the twenty-two-year-old actress, arrested for Alice Kennedy, who was on trial as District Attorney, transgender in connection with the running down and killing of two Negro children in Harlem last June, was not guilty. When the verdict was announced the young woman threw up her hands gaped and swuowed in the arms of her attorney, James W. Osborne, immediately thereafter Assistant District Attorney, Bordel of Dixon, who had been prosecuting the case before Judge Francis X Mantecus in General Sessions, moved that she be discharged in her own recognition on the indictment charging the killinz of the second child. The actress had been indicted separately for both killings and her present trial was for the second child, who, however, were killed simultaneously still under the same circumstances. Claimed Accident Judge Mancuso granted the motion. The next step in the legal process will be for Miss Szapira's lawyer to seek, after ... stable interval, a dismissal of the charge-remaining against her. The accident, which resulted in the death of two children and the injury to two others, occurred on Wes. 134th Street in Lennox and Fifth avenues, on June 15, 1926, Miss Szapira, known as Kennedy, a member of the company producing "The Student Prince," was riding in the motor car of Edward Meehan, when the latter got out at the curb to enter a near-by gas station.

Attorneys Williams and Carey Said Lawyers Of Other Races Were Boosted At Expense Of Own Race; Clark of The Age Tells Them They Alone Are Responsible "The Negro press is the biggest handicap to the progress of Negro lawyers in New York," said Attorney Vernal Williams in an address to the newly organized Harlem Colored Lawyers' Association, at the Coachman's League Hall Saturday afternoon, March 26 PATROLMAN HARRIS SUSPENDED FOR ALLEGED INTOXICATION—HELD IN $1,000 ON CHARGE OF SHOOTING AT MITCHELL Mr. Williams elaborated his remarks by saying that the Negro press went out, of its way to publish the failures of the Negro lawyer, and often times played up a lawyer of some other race against the member of his own race in reporting a trial. He made no exception, declaring that all local Negro papers were guilty of this fault. Age Editor Replies Mr. Williams' charge against the Negro brethren was backed by Attorney Richard E. Cary, who added that next to the press, the Negro doctors and Negro real estate brokers, by their refusal to employ lawyers of their own race, were the biggest stumbling blocks to the progress of race members of the bar. Mr. Cary also declared that the members of his profession did more to promote the progress of the race than any other single agency. William E. Clark, city editor of The New York Age, was the only representative of the press present at the meeting and he replied to the charge by telling the lawyers that they themselves, were largely the victims of the Harlem. If anything unpleasant was published about a Negro lawyer it was published because it was news, and that if they would take a stand on political questions and be more active in the civic affairs of the city, they would get more favorable publicity. That some of the lawyers realized the truth of these assertions, was shown by the addresses of Attorneys Ruth Whitehall Whale and George E. Hall. They were the Negro can Do to Improve His Status in Harlem. Advised by Fellow Lawyers Mr. Hall advised his associates to advertise by taking a more active part in civic affairs, and lay out questions in the political situation and did that the only way, greater respect for Negro lawyers, could be secured would be through the election or appointment of one of their numbers. She also pressed the conviction that a Negro would not become a judge in Following what is alleged by eyewitnesses to have been a wild rampage along Seventh avenue in the neighborhood of 129th street, Patrolman Leon Harris of the 10th Precinct was suspended and held in $1000 bail for the Court of Gerald Seisoni Monday morning, March 28. Patrolman Harris, while off duty got into an argument with James Mitchell, 25 of 112 West, 131st street, whom he met at the corner of 128th street, and Seventh avenue. The policeman is reported to have pulled his pistol and 'black jack and threatened Mitchell, who took to his heels and van into a restaurant at 100th Street persisted in the reat of the restaurant and fled a shot at him. The bullet whistled past several persons in the restaurant and crashed through the plate glass window: Women scream- New York until the lawyers got together and ran one of their number in an independent movement not to win at first, this independent movement would cause the old line politicians to nominate a Negro to the bench, in order to win the Negro vote.

Elizabeth Pastor Is Victor Over Officials In Court Examination Elizabeth, N. J.-The Rev. A. L. E. Weeks, pastor of Sihloh Baptist Church, was vindicated when Vice Chancellor Maja Berry, Toms River, refused a preliminary injunction asked for by Joseph Bingham, Isaac Eason and other members of the church, who sought to restrain the pastor from collecting money and administering the financial affairs of the church. Vice Chancellor Berry heard arguments on March 1, William R. Wilson of 207 Broad street representing the officers, with John J. Griffin of 208 Broad street appearing for the pastor. Affidavit signed by the treasurer of the Union Center Trust, Christ Elabeth, showing that Sihloh Church funds deposited in that bank had aggregated $15,473.38 from November 1, 1924, to February 1, 1927, and that all withdrawals of funds are made on checks requiring the joint signatures of church treasurer, pastor and secretary of the board of trustees. Vice Chancellor Petry declared that affidavit answered completely the charge of the withdrawal of funds upon which the officials sought to prevent the pastor's functioning in a financial way. ed and all made a mad rush for the door. Finally Mitchell escaped from Harris but was caught again on the stoop at 208 West 129th street. While the two men were tussling, H. Craig, the police officer, set 129th street, succeeded in taking the policeman's gun away from him and someone phoneled for the patrol dogon. Poth policeman and prisoner were placed in the wagon and driver to the 10th Precinct. The desk lieutenant, after hearing the testimony of Craig and other witnesses, ordered the police inspectors who examined him pronounced him under the influence of liquor and ordered him suspended. At the Helgis Court where a pre- liminary hearing was held here Mitchell and Harris were held in $1000 ball for the action of the grand jury.

Seven were located in Stamford, Conn. Friday, March 25. The girls were Julia, Henry Moses, the daughter of Rev. and Mrs. Moore, Hortense Nipson and Ruth Hutchins of Corona, Long Island. After leaving a note at the Moses home stating they were tired of school and parental restraints, they disbanded March 19. When they did not return home Saturday evening, Mrs Moses notified the police and they with the truant officer and a representative of the Children's Society were working on the case. Brothers Told Story Brothers of Miss Moses came to The Age with the story of her disappearance, which was published in last week's issue. Thursday a resident of Stamford had been visiting in New York read of the mystery in The Age and when she returned home she told the story to some of her friends in a beauty pastor. The moment the story was a Mrs Roose, who conducts a boarding house. She said three young girls had come to her last Saturday night saying they were from Philadelphia and were orphans. She compared the description as given in The Age with that of the girl her, and described to Carlson how she lives in New York. When she did the three brothers of Julia Moses responded to her call and left immediately for Stamford. Changed Names, Advanced Ages When they saw the girls they, readily admitted their identity and agreed to return home, although they had secured work and had convinced themselves they were the ones to make their way in the world. They had changed their names and were saying they were 18. Because of her fair completion, Julia Moses had secured work in the Woolworths department, other of the group was working in a laundry and the third in a dressmaking establishment. When they arrived home they explained they had run away because they planned to work out of the city until their parents had stopped searching for them. They would then return to the city and secure work on the stage or in the movies. Miss Moses has returned to high school, 136 and the other girls have returned to their parents in Corona.

He also received from President Coolidge Attorney General John G. Sargent. Judge Cobb was appointed to the vacancy created by the death of the late Judge Robert H. Terrell. assume Attitude That McLaughlin's Leaving Or Staying Matters Little To Them In The Matter of Continued Operation The reported resignation of Police Commissioner George V. McLaughlin, said to be scheduled to take effect on May 1, next, is being looked upon with varying estimates by the bootlegging and "numbers" playing fraternities, to judge from the comments being made. There is, however, a general attitude of studied indifference which strikes the observer as specially significant. This indifference takes the form of a shrug of the shoulder on part of the afore-referred to gentry, accompanied by a careless of bearing. This seems imply that it is little different than the whether McLaughlin stays or goes, for they will go on just the same under either condition. The bootlegging fraternity in Harlem seems justified, at least to the extent that there is no appreciable operation on their part. The "numbers" bankers and collectors, on the other hand, have not been so unhappened. Just after the New Year on Jan-Andrew P. Sternweiss (11477) of tary 4 to be precise, Patrolman the 6th Division passed the grocery store at 74 West 118th street, and a careless glance discovered to him the presence of Petro Maret of 13 West 118th street, with a handle-lined auburn policy slip. And so, on March 21, Maret joined the warehouse colony for 60 days by order of Justice McLaughlin. 17-Year Old School Girl. Mary Dacent of 508 Lenox avenue was one of two women recent- New Law is Effective. The passage of the law by the 1926 Assembly, making it possible to take the policy players directly before the Court of Special Sessions for immediate trial, instead of using long lines to pursue processes of the Court of General Sessions, has resulted in quick and appreciable augmentation of the Welfare Island Workhouse population. Police officers attached to the 6th Division have been largely re-represented in the "workers" playing a pernicious development which had invaded most of the homes of the community, and which could be practiced in most of the stationery, cigar, confessory and other stores of Harlem. In fact, so prevalent was the play of the workmen that a found is a much more lucrative proposition than the doing out of handies, cigars, groceries or other commodities in such quantities as brought in only a modicum of profit. No. Capital, Big Profit. The legitimate business required considerable capital—the "numbers" collecting required none at all. But profits from legitimate turning of account were not sufficient—the "numbers" taking income instantly assumed massive proportions. Activities of the 6th Division officers have not the fear of the law into the hearts of the storekeepers so that most of their trade, in fear of being robbed, avoid grabbing of the alluring profits they had found so attractive. "Numbers" playing is being extensively practiced, but both players and collectors are exercising a greater discretion than formerly, more than most, even truly gets the major portion of the players' investment, is becoming more and more wary, and making himself harder to find. More Workhouse Inmates. Carlos Arencay, prior to March 23, could probably go anywhere he wanted to, but on that day Justice James J. Melmerney, sitting in the Court of Special Sessions, whisher an invitation which Arencay did not receive, to the ability, either, for that matter, to refuse, and so Carlos will find his movements for the next 60 days regulated by the rules and practices of the city's retreat for those who break its laws. Patrolman Peter-Relly (9371) of the 6th Division arrested Carlos on December 27, Christmas season, at 2183 Fifth Avenue, the officer califying that his prisoner possessed a quantity of policy-slips at the time. The hooch joints and speakaless listed below are open day and night in flagrant disregard of the law. Evidence of their operation has been placed with Federal enforcement agents, but no action seems to have been taken. Why? Just after the New Year, on Jan. Andrew P. Sternweiss (11477) of tary 4 to be precise, Patrolman 6 to be precise, at store 74 West 118th street, and a careless glance, discovered to him the presence of Petro Maret of 13 West 115th street, who was handling a number of policy slips. And Patrolman 6, a worldhouse colony for 60 days by order of Justice McIntirey. 17-Year Old School Girl. Mary Dacent of 508 Lenox avenue was one of two women recently found by officers to be mixed up in the "numbers" game, and she was arrested on January 21 by Patrolman Edward H. Pruschen (889) of the 6th Division. As a consequence, Justice Joseph Kelly gave her a compulsory invitation to spend 20 days with the wounded Elena Lowenstein, a 17-year old student, of 297 West 148th street, was more fortunate. She was arrested on December 8 at 9:40 p.m. on the premises, at 673 Lenox avenue, by Patrolman Pruschen, who charged 'her with having policy slips'. Justice Daniel A. Direnzo heard the case in Part VI, Court of Special Sessions, on March 21, and he mistreated his decision with hurt, by suspending the sentence, and putting the young girl on probation for a year. Another to benefit by the benison of a merciful judge was Orlando Myles of 2323 Seventh avenue, who was given a stipend in the Meyer School, who tried Myles on March 23 on charges preferred by Patrolman Wm. Schitner (7222) of the sixth Division, who testified that he arrested Orlando on January 27 in the premises as an officer, and found that the man had a number of policy slips in his possession. New Rochelle Pythians Hear Annual Sermon New Rochelle, N. Y.-Douglas Lodge Knights of Pythians had their annual sermon preached by the Rev. W. H. Stater at Slater Holy Baptist Church Sunday night, March 27. The church was crowded and many were turned away. Grand Chancellor Lee Crawford was present and made a short address.

Davis, chairman of the Program Committee, arose and told the audience of the great men of the church that he had visited New Rochelle and that he was fortunate in having two dintinguished visitors at his home on Horton avenue during the afternoon. They were Elkie Elmordt and Dr. Harry T. Burleigh, who he had persuaded to remain over to the evening service. Mr. Burleigh kindly consented to sing one of his own institutions, to the delight of all present. Ga. State Ind. College By Misa Jimmie Rogers Savannah, Ga.—The Y. M. C.

George Shippen Stark, pastor, referring to passages of the scriptures in Psalms 44 and Zachariah 1:5 stressed the thought of thinking of our Fathers and the work God had done for us. The pastor mentioned interesting facts in the early life of the church, its beginning as a mission amid days so difficult from the sun. At this morning hour of worship the infant of Mr. and Mrs. Lyle Durant was baptized. The Bible School held its session at 1:15 p.m. The school is making preparation for its Easter service. Three o'clock marked another service. This time greetings were extended by the Ladies Auxiliary and The Matrons Club of the church commenting on the founders and the inspiration received to continue our work. The history of the church was given by Elder Samuel H. Boger. Reference in this history was made to many interesting facts, among them that the Rev. James Gloucester, founder of Siloam, was a descendant of the Rev. John Gloucester, founder of Freibytarianism among our people in Philadelphia. The various pastors who had served the church were called. Special mention was made to Dr. William A. Alexander who had served so well and whose life touched only a great mime in Siloam today, but in the city of Brooklyn. At this service it was particularly pleasing and an honor to have the Rev. W. R. Lawton, a living former pastor of Siloam present and who delivered the address of this afternoon service. The outstanding feature of this service was the awarding of the certificate of recognition to those whose membership has extended from a membership or more. There were thirty-nine persons to receive these certificates Mrs. Charlotte J. Bayne who stands out as being the oldest member in point of years, 62, was unable to be present. The next oldest Mrs. Ophelia Rogers, 61 years, was present and received hers in person. This indeed was a most thrilling experience, as the certificates and to their fellow members who felt honored to show their regard and esteem. Mention, too must be made of Mrs. Grace Hinds, whose membership extends over a period of thirty years, but is now confined to bed because of serious illness, but in spite of all, had given her inspiration and word to advice and encouragement to the celebrant and to the audience to what we can accomplish anything by having faith. An expression of greeting and appreciation was taken to Mrs. Hinds, affectionately spoken of as chairman of this Founders Day Committee, as coming from the congregation by Elder G. B. Cauk, clerk of the church session. Flowered with gift of Mrs. J. Delares gift for the occasion of the Founders Day, celebration. Buy Cotton Goods Now Last fall cotton pickers' of the South harvested a record-breaking cotton crop. Over '18,00,000 bales it is estimated will be the total for 1926. With this abundance of raw cotton, the white sales this spring are thereafter an essential supplies of sheets, pillow cases, towels, mattress protectors, and other household cottons. Cotton dress goods, too, with colors last to sunlight and tubbing, are on the counters in a great range of shades and designs than ever. Anyone who knows how can pick a variety of serviceable cotton for the household and for clothing. If buying sheeting or ready-made sheets, be sure to get them large enough. This is no time to skimp on cotton sheets. Sheets should be 24 to 36 inches wider and longer than the matters, so that ends and sides can well be tucked in to hold the sheet in place. This also allows for a generous turnover on the latter; to provide easier cutter consideration the quality of sheeting, too, in buying. Choose a firm weave with a minimum of sizing in the fabric. Seconds in sheets and pillow cases can but he sure you pay the price of seconds. Unleached sheeting comes at a lower cost than bleached and will give equally good service and gradually wash out white. A firm weave is likewise one of the points to look for in Turkish twocolts and other household cotton that get used. A shell for a bath mat will be a firm foundation; the boys will pull out and leave holes. Notice the seavage also and give the preference to towels with a firm even edge. The United States Department of Agriculture will send free on request full information on choosing cotton fabrics for every use. Forgotten History In addressing a meeting of colored people, recently held in Washington under the auspices of the local branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, Clarence Darrow, noted Chicago lawyer who has been raced by the NAACP. "You have no monopoly in having been slaves. My own ancestors were slaves. That was a little further back than when yours were slaves, but that makes no difference. You went through the same history as my ancestors did." But one does not bear of any other man in holding annual Emancipation Celebrations, which serve to emphasize the lowly conditions of servitude through which their ancestors passed. "Other peoples are so busy with affairs concerning their economic and cultural progress that they have no time nor inclination to celebrate or even to recall the emancipation from slavery, and they are very misguided. To most of them, it is forgotten history. After More Than A Dozen Postponements Case Against Charles Williams, Growing Out of New Year's Duel Is Tried Patroman Charles Williams (colored) was completely exonerated on March 28, by Magistrate George W. Simpson in the Washington Heights Court, of a charge of felonious assault made by Patrolman Robert E. Troy (white). Then Troy was held for the grand jury on a similar charge because of an alleged assault on Williams. Both policemen were shot and wounded on New Year's after a pistol duel on 133rd street. According to the story stold, Patrolman Williams, in civilian clothes, was out on a case and was passing a cabaret known as the Blue Valley Inn at 16 West 133rd street, at 5 a. m., when he heard a shot and felt a stinging pain in his right thigh. A second later he OPPORTUNITIES FOR AMERICAN NEGROES IN LIBERIA Of the History and Natural Resources of Liberia in a Book written by One Who Spent Years in that Country By Henry F. Downing, Late U. S. Consul St. Paul de Londa, West Africa On Sale at the New York Age Office 230 WEST 135th STREET NEW YORK CITY Although it was dark, Williams could distinguish three men standing about thirty feet away from him and in the hands of one of them was a pistol. He heard two more shots and then saw the shooter run into the middle of the street. He lost no time in 'pulling out his police service revolver' and fired the gun, the director of the shooter who was running down the street. Williams pursued the fleeing man and fired three more shots, this time in the air, to halt the assailant. The man at the corner of 13th street was avenue and disarmed him. By this time Policecem Gieselman and Reardon hearin the shots came to investigate and called a taxkab after being asked to do so by William. He was in the hospital and was going to the Harlem Hospital with his prisoner. Both Men Sobcr. At the hospital, Williams and his prisoner were treated immediately. Both were thoroughly examined and were found to be sober. Williams was shot in the right thigh and the right hand while examining the left thigh the left wrist and gushed on the thigh. The pocketts of Williams' assailant were examined and a police shield was found and the man said that he was 'Patrolman Robert E. Troy of the Alexander avenue station. Both patrolmen made counter charges of felonious assault, were placed under arrest and were terminated as suspended from the police force to-tail the outcome of the trial. The case had been called more than a dozen times at the Heights Court and had to be postponed each time. Monday it was called before Magistrate George W. Simpson and the case started at 4:30 p. m., at which time Williams more than the quarter in court. An were spent in examining and cross-examining Williams, who was represented by Assemblyman Abraham Grenhal. Williams' Story Substantiated. His story was substantiated by Miss Lucille Dunlap and Luther Mayer's who were witnesses to the shooting. Miss Dunlap said that she and her companion had been to party, and were walking through the cabaret and suddenly remembered that he had to see a friend in the Blue Valley Inn. He left his companion standing outside the cabaret and went in for a minute. While he was gone, Miss Dunlap said she was approached by three white men and one of them(Troy) asked her to have a good time with him. She told them to go away or she would get her friend. They told her that if she got anyone they would send him away quicker than when he came. She went into the cabaret and old Mayers to there and white men insulted her and he rushed out to demonstrate with them. Outside of the cabaret, she point- ed out, the men to Mayers and one of them pulled, out a revolver and fired. She heard a mad further away say, "My God I've been shot." Both she and Mayers ran to the corner where they got into a taxi cab and rushed away from the scene of the shooting. The team that was substantially the same as that of Miss Dunlap and then 'Dr. Farrow Allen of Harlem Hospital testified that both men were sober when brought to the hospital. Then Troy went on the stand and denied the statements made by Williams and his witnesses. However, the judge in giving his decision, whereby he completely exonerated Williams, gave him a guardary, complimented Williams for his sterling character remarking that he was a model policeman and had done his duty.

Jones Warns Students of The Danger Of College Educations Bishop R. E. Jones Warns Students of The Danger Of College Educations Marshall, Tex—Bishop R. E. Jones, general superintendent of the New Orleans area, Methodist Episcopal Church, and who is also the assistant president of board of Wiley College, was in the city recently on business involving a conference with the representative of a certain, interested educational foundation looking into the future development of Wiley college along academic and physical lines. In his talk to the Wiley student body, Bishop Jones told them there were serious disadvantages and dangers in a college education. He warned them that the dangers of pointing out how a college education might work harm and disadvantage. The mere completion of a college course or getting a degree does not indicate that a man is educated. Degrees do not mean that he is educated. He said, we are too much disposed in America to lay false emphasis on degrees and college courses, and consequently, in many instances, have created in the minds of half-baked graduates the notion that a college degree is a badge of efficiency. No number of degrees, no amount of book learning, said the bishop, NOTICE!-NOTICE! TO THE STOCKHOLDERS OF THE HARLEM ALLIED ASSOCIATION Inc.

A college education he said students many a person from securing a job because it gives the postmaster the wrong perspective of life. President J. B Watson of Leland University, who is present and heard the bishop, said this anomaly might be partially explained by the fact that we make no careful or not sufficiently careful selection of students for college training. A large majority of Negro college students, he said, are assimilate this type of training. Using schools and colleges for Negroes' institute a more-rigorous selection of students, real progress will lag. West Virginia Institute Attains Class A Rating Institute W.

Harry Moore heard a delegation of colored men in an appeal asking a remedying of the segregation conditions obtaining in the public school at Toms River, and then told the appellants that while the State of New Jersey does not stand for discrimination, he was powerless to render any aid in this particular matter. The delegation, with James Weldon Johnson, secretary of the N. C. L. at its spokesman, had recited the story of how school officials at Toms River, in the face of president and without legitimate reason, had barred colored pupils from attendance at the modern and upodate Toms River school, relegating them to a special school opened for Negro children in an uncompleted church building in Brookside Township. Lincoln University To Start Drive To Raise Additional $250,000 Philadelphia, Pa.—Thursday, March 14, the board of trustees of Fink's "Texas" Speech. It was pointed out that this actio- bism was taken by Edgar M. Fink, supervising principal of the schools of Toms River, who had recently boasted that on a visit to Texas he "had learned a few things about to handle" Negroes. Fink was quoted further as saying that if Texas Negroes demanded their rights as did the Toms River group, lynching would have been quickly been their fate. "When the delegation was re- ceived by Gov Mocte, it was ac- companied by three small boys, members of the segregated Toms River pupil group, each holding pleasures bearing the inscription: "I am a victim of race prej- dice in Toms River. Governor Fink never liked us because we are colored." In speaking for the protestants, Mr. Johnson urged the immediate female of Fink, who, as an offi- cial, he declared had no place in the public school system of an en- litheened state. Governor is Powerless Governor Moore, replied that he had no power to dismiss Principal Pink, that the only remedy for the race is to be found in the law, and that of the Legislature, just adjourned had passed the antigregation bills introduced by Senator Simpson, the public, the quickly settled, as made segregation a undemocratic and provided penalties. In his appeal, Mr. Johnson urged that Negro school children and teachers become, an integral art of the State's educational system, and that the race be given representation upon the State Board of Education by the naming of a Negro as Assistant Commissioner of Education. He denounced segregation as denying common citizenship, the spirit of American life, as it works out inferior accommodation and equipment for children. Commissioner Logan Silent. Prior to the hearing, Governor Moore had called on Commissioner John H Logan of the State Board of Education for a statewide commissioner. Logan wrote that the Board would probably be called on finally to settle the issue, he could not comment on the situation. Governor Moore advised the delegation that its only recourse is to ask that the Supreme Court's action or file an appeal with the State Board against the ousting of the children. With regard to naming a Negro Assistant Commissioner of Education, the governor said that so many races had petitioned for representation on the Board it would be impossible to grant such requests.

I occasionally have indigestion and find it necessary to take a laxative. I had heard of Theford's BLACK-DRAUGHT Pureluy Vegetable for a long time.

Hampton, Va.-Th first, conference of Negro librarians from various schools, colleges and public libraries, representing twelve states, met at Hampton Institute, March 15 to 18, under direction of Miss Florence Rising Curtis, director of the Library school at Hampton Institute to discuss problems of library expansion and management. Topics on the program dealt with library work from the choosing of the site, the materials for building and equipment, the organization of the staff, library service for children and in the high school to the place of the library in the community. Among the speakers were Miss' Ernestine Rose of the Harlem Braunch of the New York City Public Library; Miss Mary E. Hall, Girl's High School; Brooklyn; Edward C. Williams; librarian Howard University; Herbert Hirschberg, Old State Library; Mrs. Hirschberg and Thomas Blair, colored department of the Louisville Public Free Library. Mr. Smith of the Rosenwald Fund presented for discussion the subject, "Library Aid for rural Communities through the Agency of the osenwald School." Talks On "Harlem" A feature of the conference was a talk by Miss one on "Harlem." In part she said: "Harlem is inspiring, not so much for hat it has achieved, although that is notable, but because of its possibilities. It has been called the "Mercy of the New Negro." I think we are saying a good deal that is trash about the new Negro. The New Negro is the old Negro. The new restriction expressing self as he would have before if he had had the opportunity. Harlem is the center of experiments. "When you read the sort of thing, you do read about cabarets and night life in Harlem, remember that it is the superficial life of any group of people. Over that is the steady growing stabilizing life of the majority of people, without which I do not believe we could have a Countie Cullen or a Paul Robeson today." When asked her opinion of Carl Van Vechten, "Nigger Heaven"; Miss Rose said that adverse criticism has advertised the book unusually well. "No doubt all the incidents in the book are true, but they are not typical incidents. Drawing them together into one book has focused attention on them and thrown the whole picture out of perspective."

The Negro voters of St. Louis have had the ambition to elect an alderman of their race from the Sixth ward and Charles H. Turpin was finally chosen to make the primary fight for a place on the ticket. Although the colored candidate carried six wards heavily populated by Negro voters, he got such scant support from the white Republicans, that he failed to win a place on the ticket. This was due to the fact that although the alderman is elected to represent a certain ward, the vote of all the wards in the city is needed to nominate at the primary. All the wards in which the big leaders live gave overwhelming majorities to the white nominee. Evidently, the white Republicans of St. Louis are opposed to the election of a Negro alderman, even to represent a ward largely populated by Negroes. The Negro voters of St. Louis have had the ambition to elect an alderman of their race from the Sixth ward and Charles H. Turpin was finally chosen to take the primary fight for a place on the ticket. Although the colored candidate carried six wards heavily populated Negro voters, he got such scant support from the white Republicans, that he failed to win a place on the ticket. This was due to the fact that although the alderman is elected to represent a cairn ward, the vote of all the wards in the city is needed to nominate at the primary. All the wards in which the big laders live gave overwhelming majorities to the white nominee. Evidently, the white Republicans of St. Louis are opposed to the election of a Negro alderman, even to represent a ward largely populated by Negroes. Commenting on the outcome of this primary contest, the St. Louis Argus suggested a plan to elect alderman by wards. I said editorially: PUTTING TEETH IN THE LAW. Recent decisions of the Supreme Court in the United States, affecting human rights, indicate a surprising change of viewpoint since the time when Chief Justice Taney enunciated the doctrine that, if a matter of law and opinion, a black man had no rights that a white man was bound to respect. Of course this view still prevails in South Carolina and other backward States, where the lynching of black men and women is regarded by the legal authorities as a less serious offence than Sunday golf or the selling of soft drinks on the Sabbath. Notwithstanding these exceptions, the tendency of the courts appears to be for the extension of the protection of the law to all classes of the community, regardless of race or color. This more enlightened doctrine has been manifested to a greater extent setting the past few years, both in the federal and State courts. Commenting on the outcome of this primary contest, the St. Louis Argus suggested a plan to elect alderman by wards. It said editorially: It seems to us that it might be a workable plan if we should join the Democrats in a fight for the return of the election of the members of the Board Alderman by ward. In this way, the proosus would probably elect at least one member and the Democrats could probably elect two or three. Too much power to any one partly does not assure a healthy growth for any community. And certainly no community can be best served when any one party is "within the power." No better evidence of this fact is shown than we can see in the "Solid South" today. The Supreme Court decision which accustomed this tendency to affirm the principles of equal protection of the law run all our citizens was that declaring the Texas statute unconstitutional, that arrest Negro citizens from voting in a Democratic primary. This was based on the Fourteenth amendment, which was said to be infringed by the Texas law. While the white Democrats in Texas may add a way to continue their practice of arresting black voters from the polls, this decision stamps their action as contrary to law and therefore invalidating all elections to conducted. If carried to its logical conclusion. It was clearly shown that the Republican party in the city of St. Louis refuses to vote for a Negro for Alderman. Surely the Democrats cannot do worse. It doesn't take a lawyer to show one that. While some of us boast of the fact that we belong to the Republican Party, yet on last Tuesday we were treated like a stepchild. See-Stop-And-Think. That seems to be a feasible way out of the difficulty. The same indisposition among the white leaders to support a colored candidate for elective office was manifested in Harlem when Dr. Charles D. Roberts was nominated for Congress. It is shown to an equal extent among the Democrats in the frequent controversies between the white and colored district leaders. When colored voters are needed to make a showing, they are solicited to join the regular district organization. When a sufficient showing can be made without their aid, they are encouraged to attend an organization of their own. The solution is for the Negro voters to make their votes an indispensable quantity to the party that will give them a square deal. That seems to be a feasible way out of the difficulty.

The furious decision of the Supreme Court reaffirming the doctrine that enforments by states or municipalities to enforce residential segregation are unconstitutional related to a New Orleans ordinance and two Louisiana statutes. The argument of the lower court was reversed on the authority of a former case involving a segregation ordinance of the city of Louisville. It was then held that such laws and ordinances were in violation of the Fourteenth amendment to the Constitution. The Supreme Court also granted a petition for the review of a decision by a Federal Court in Texas, enjoining the Negro order from the use of the name, ancient Egyptian Arabic Order of Nobles in the Mystic Shrine. This case involves the national orders of both races, although it was started in the State courts in Texas. The Supreme Court will consider its merits at an early date. The solution is for the Negro voters to make their votes an indispensable quantity to the party that will give them a square deal. HARLEM HQSPITAL NEEDS. Harlem Hospital constitutes one of the defences of the city against disease and accident for a populous section, where the struggle against the menace, of overcongestion requires all the resources of modern medical skill and careful nursing. It is therefore essential that the equipment of the hospital and the morale of its doctors and nurses should be kept up to the highest point of efficiency. As one of the measures necessary to this end, there should be ample recreation space afforded for the medical and nursing staff. Larger space is also needed for the accommodation of confinement cases, which can be so much better cared for in the hospital than in the limited quarters of the average home. Harlem Hospital constitutes one of the defences of the city against disease and accident for a populous section, where the struggle against the menace of overcongestion requires all the resources of modern medical skill and careful nursing it is therefore essential that the equipment of the hospital and the morale-ofs doctors and nurses should be kept up Litigation involving residential and criminal segregation has been prosecuted in the courts of several Eastern and Western states, generally with favorable results on the issue of equal rights, irrespective of race or color. The Sweet state in Detroit also involved the issue of self-defence in protection of life and property rights. In New Jersey the Supreme Court has been invoked to maintain the rights of Negro children to admission to the Toms-River public school, from which they have been barred by the local board of education. These needs of the Harlem institution should be presented to the Board of Estimate in such a manner as to emphasize the necessity of a sufficient appropriation to make the changes and additions required at the earliest possible date. The people of Harlem who depend upon this hospital as their bulwark against disease and sickness of whatever sort, feel that their institution should be equipped with all the modern devices for comfort and the conservation of health that other hospitals possess. The lack of such provision has been observed by those who have had occasion to visit the institution, and it felt that if the need is properly presented to the city, authorities the deficiencies will be supplied. This resort to the courts to bring about the enforcement of the equal protection of the law is the proper mode of seeking redress where there is a possibility of legal remedy. And it is encouraging to find that to a greater and greater extent the courts are finding and applying that remedy. As a matter of fact court decisions are not always self-enforcing, but they have the moral effect of placing the oppressor in the wrong and making the consequence of that oppression unlawful and in defiance of the constituted authorities. It is therefore the part of wisdom to take recourse to the law for the correction of wrongs and the vindication of rights. The legal processes may be long and tedious and expensive, but the result is worth the effort involved. Credit is due to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People for the policy it has steadfastly pursued of resorting to the courts for the enforcement of civil and political rights. It requires an organization of this sort successfully prosecute such cases. This It is also felt that the pay of the nurses is not adequate to the duties and responsibilities, which they have to fulfill. This should be remedied by including them in the number of city employees whose salaries are to be adjusted by the Board of Estimate, so as to make them commensurate with the scale prevailing among city employees of similar grade. The sum of one million dollars was appropriated for this purpose the first of the year, but the method of the distribution had not yet been fixed, although it was felt that the lower paid grades of employees should be among the beneficiaries. In this distribution the city nurses should not be forgotten. WHEELS OF CHANCE. The wheels of chance which have figured so largely in the stories of the various men who broke the bank at Monte Carlo, change their aspect when translated to the more proselytic preclinics of Harlem. In the gilded gambling saloons on the Mediterranean the turning of the wheels determines the winning inumbers. In Harlem the wheels help move the motor car which forms a traveling headquarters for the bankers, who issue the policy slips for the numbers game. At least, that was the evidence which caused the conviction of two men charged with violation of lottery and policy laws a few weeks ago, in the Court of Special Sessions.

Harlem the wheels help move the motor car which forms a traveling headquarters for the bankers, who issue the policy slips for the numbers game. At leaks that was the evidence which caused the conviction of two men charged with violation of lottery and police laws a few weeks ago, in the Court of Special Sessions. These two numbers, bankers were observed by a vigilant detective at the laborers, shortly after midnight last November, in a parked motor car on Broadway. One was dictating numbers from policy slips, while the other was operating an adding machine to get the total sales. Thousands of policy slips were found in the car, as well as a ledger containing a record of sales. The test mony further showed that the plays recorded by one of these bankers, made that day, amounted to more than fifteen thousand dollars, ranging in size from one tent to five dollars. The ledger shows that one collector, had turned in nearly nine hundred dollars collected from men, women and children by storekeepers in the neighborhood. It also showed that the banker, on November 16, while collecting not quite fifteen hundred dollars paid out in winners a little over twenty-three hundred dollars. Evidently more bait was needed to make the foolish bite more greedily. Both these numbers operators were Nroes, as was one of the detectives who testified against them. The latter to the justices that the policy game had made more crooks and gamblers among a race than any other form of lawlessness. This is expert testimony and may be regarded as corroboration all that The Age has previously published concerning the harmful effect of playing the numbers. The fact that the banker supervise their operators from traveler offices gives a new significance to the phrase concerning the "Wheels of Chance," which might be revised in chance on wheels." The chance at best is always against the player. The tempting odds of six hundred one, offered by the numbers game, is to furnish for the multitude who vain hope for "easy money" to resist. Stories are told of men and women who regularly pay a dollar every day to some collector, hoping in vain that their favorite number will appear. This form of gambling becomes a mania, which defies control. The police and the courts should continue to break it up by arresting and trailing the operators.

Too often the Negro is apt to feel the race is the only individual or race group that is subject to handicap or discrimination in the business or industrial field because of race or color. That individuals of other races or social groups a subject to similar discrimination may small cause for comfort, but it proves least that the black race is not the sufferer from such discrimination, least in the North. It took such a clo Too often the Negro is apt to feel that he is the only individual or race group that is subject to handicap or discrimination in the business or industrial field because of race or color. That individuals of other races or social groups are subject to similar discrimination may be small cause for comfort, but it proves at least that the black race is not the sole sufferer from such discrimination, at least in the North. It took such a close student of sociological conditions as Frank Tannenbaum, to ascribe the intensity of race prejudice in the South to the fact that the whites were not able to distribute their race hatreds, but concentrated them all upon the Negro. The occasion for these reflections was furnished by a letter printed in a recent number of the Nation, the liberal weekly edited by Oswald Garrison Villard, which might well have been written by one of the darker race. It relates the experience of one Elizabeth Goldstein, evidently of the Hebrew race, in seeking a position as stenographer. But the letter tells the story as follows: After two years residence in Mexico I returned to the United States intending to get myself a position and remain here. In addition to my experience in the States as stenographer, secretary, and office manager, I had acquired in Mexico an adequate knowledge of Spanish, and had become a competitor in Spanish-Spanish stenographer and correspondent. One week in New York filled me, with pain and loathing for Christian hypocrisy and Jewish — — —. I will let you supply the word, One employment agency after another said that much as they would like to send me to any number of available positions for. For instance, I will send you an, because of positive instructions from their clients, Jewish as well as Christian, to send them any Jaws. The feeling of disgust that, welled up in my same ideal doing THE AGE READERS' FORUM gurt that will be held for my fellow Jews, being hated for my fellow Jews, if the Christians were known to act any more decently, I would be more willing to change my faith. I left New York for Boston, my hometown. Here too, it seems to be taken for granted that even, in Jewish business, Here too it seems to be taken for granted that even in Jewish business house a Jewish young man or woman cannot hope to get any high-grade office or executive position. The young Jew is fast acquiring the status of a Jew, in this difference that the Nerozo discriminated against members of his own race, whereas, Jewish employers are actually doing that. I may have to return to "harbous Mexico" to earn a living. There, neither among Jews nor Christians, on the economic field at least, is there the slightest trace of prejudice against anyone on account of race, religion, or color. Of genres many a colored stenographer could parallel the experience of Miss Goldstein, even to the detail of finding Negro employers who dislcriminate against members of their own race, if we are to credit the stories brought to this office concerning Negro lawyers who employ white stenographers. Nevertheless, we are inclined to believe that discrimination of that sort is becoming less common, and the field for the well trained and skilled office workers of the race is becoming larger. Employers and employed are gradually losing the fear of working beside those of darker complexion. The objection to employing colored office help in the high THE AGE REA Comments on The Stage I have often wondered, whether education is any part of the cause of some people being proud. Hearing that the delacue, "Lal-Belle" was in its last week in New York, I ventured out to see it. In order to be more explicit, suppose we just change the characters of this show, let Lal-Belle be white and the Prince be blue and Ugh. This expresses what the whites would say about it. We hear a hot about the theatres putting on indecent shows and one fellow, who was not born in this country has even gone so far as to assert what an audience likes and dislikes. Funny how these gorgeous an audience in a strange place and know more about it than the people, who were always here. An attack on the theatres which cater to the Negroes should be considered by the intelligence of the audience. The Negroes are not going to applaud drama as loud as they have applauded these women who are doing nothing but shaking their bodies. Some people strain the knat and that no wallow if they think that no woman is watching them. Anything that I get in on and don't enjoy, I leave and don't return. Remember this is a free country, as far as our morals are concerned. We have economic slavery and some of these hypocrites would force us to be in bed at a certain hour and in church every Sunday. While attending the show, we at the second balcony and a white woman came in and was ushered to the adjoining seat. As soon as the show got under wav, she got up and told the usher that she could not see very much of the stage, whereupon he got a chair and put it on the rostrum at the head of the stairway, behind the seat that was occupying. A few minutes later, he seated beside this woman and they began to chatter, as all hens will do. "It doesn't seem like Belasco at all, "says one and the other began to pester the stumpy usher HEALTH IS HERE By DR. M. ALICE ASSERSON the New York Tuberculosis and Health Association Treatment of Cuts When Johnny or Rosalie or some member of the family cuts his finger, do you know what to do? Offhand, cuts seem like simple injuries, but they frequently lead to quite serious trouble as there is always the danger of getting infection in the wound. The best thing is to allow the cut to bleed a little, then pour a little blood into the wound. The sting for a few minutes, but not for long, and it is a safe way to disinfect the wound. Do not be concerned about a little bleeding. If this is not excessive, such as the birefring which accurs when an injury has been covered, it is not harmful. It will help clean out the wound. The injured part should always be covered to keep it clean and to avoid infection from without. Use a sterile gauze bandage. Ifavenue's one on hand must material, use a sterile gauze bandage. Never put a soiled handkerchief or material that is not absolutely clean on an open cut. Do not put adhesive or court plaster directly on such a wound. 11 bleeding continues after an- Granting that the facts cited by Miss Goldstein have a substantial foundation, we cannot conceive, that the situation as it affects the employment of those of the Jewish race is as difficult as she apprehends. With a little more persistence in the struggle, we think she would have landed the desired position with either a Christian or a Jewish house that had need of such skilled service. In those cases where the agencies had positive directions from their clients not to send Jewish applicants, it would be interesting to learn the real reason for that policy, as it must have been more than a mere display of racial prejudice and intolerance. The one, encouraging feature of this letter is the tribute paid to Mexico as an economic field without prejudice on account of race, religion or color. And yet Mexico has been represented by others as having good cause to dislike the. "Gringoes." about who was white and who was colored in this cast of the first act. He was telling her that Henry Hull was white and, some few others. It is too hard to the program did lady. 'Wh暇' what a terrible lot of colored people, and the other one started in to chime about the seats being so bad in the extreme wings of the second balcony. One of them noticed that the box on the orchestra floor was vacant, as was the piano. It is a mighty big stretch of imagination when a Victoire picks up a woman of the type of Luïl Belle and takes her to France. Most of the types in the show are true to life, the same as the types in the show Se-He. They are the types in the show Se-He. But the Belle has enjoyed its run and departed without any court precedes marrying its run.

That is why we cannot sing Like the little birdies. The whole of the Indian Press has accorded a hearty welcome to Mr. Shapurji Sakalavala, the only communist member in the British Parliament, but one notices there are very many mental reservations. Almost all Journals have accorded him ungrudging welcome as an ill-tempered and unpleasant gable worker in the cause of universal labour and in the cause of India's free Committing on the employment of Negro salemen by local business houses, the Norfolk Journal and Guide社: It is a fact that the Negro group forms a very sizeable part of the local buying public. In some sections and for some stores it is virtually the whole trading source. Stores that accord appreciation to this fact by finding places, other than menial, on their employment force to engage Negro grocers, create a market to beget like appreciation of the Negro trading public. Doubts the majority of local business firms, particularly those having an appreciable Negro patronage, could by tacit arrangement make places for the employment of industrious and ambitious colored men and women on the sales end, thus according our group fair employment representation with its buying representation. Negro grocers with apprehension believe the fact that the Negal Company and the Meeke-Colline Company have found it possible to institute such a policy. But it's necessary that our group bear in mind that the Negroes placed in advanced fields are on trial. If they make good they make larger opportunities for others. If they fail, the difficulty of opening a new door is increased. As a matter of self protection the race is duty bound to cooperate in every reasonable way toward making the efforts of Negroes in these advanced positions a success. This same reasoning would apply to the economic situation in Harlem, where the Negro group forms such a considerable part of the buying public. In notting the fact that membership in an evangelical church has been dropped as a qualification for membership in the Cleveland Y. M. C. A., the Cleveland Gazette said: Under the new regulation any man of good moral character, who believes in God and who wants to advance "the kingdom of God," may become a participating member of the corporation whether he belongs to a church or not. The foregoing means that the church he forthence be dropped by the Cleveland Young Men's Christian Association and as a result membership requirements liberalized after twenty years' agitation. Looks like the word "Christian" in its name is finally to mean something and to be fully recognized by the local """ Good. This reference to the elimination of the color line sounds as if Editor Smith was waxing sarcastic at the expense of the organization, which is so rash as use an inverted triangle as its emblem. The significance of this sign is recognized by all students of esoteric philosophy. Discussing the effect of the Supreme Court decision, which denied the right of Texas to exclude Negroes from voting in a Democratic primary, the Houston Informer said: The Informer agrees with the sentiment expressed by some democratic leaders of Texas that the ruling of the supreme court will not seriously affect the political situation in Texas, nor present any serious problem—nor inform them—gogues endorsed to connect some of the scheme, or parly with the supreme court decision will be overruled or negatively by arbitrary actions and high-handed machinations on the part of party leaders and election officials. It remained for an East Texan (Dr. Nixon is a native of Marshall, Texas) to strike a telling blow in defense of the political rights of his people in Texas and the entire South, because the race will copted and oppose in court criminals and inequalities now fousted upon our group in this state, such as "jim-crow" airlift accommodations, the poll tax law as a prerequisite to voting, et cetera. Another Texas editor, who reported in the name of Walter Leonard Solomon, was quoted as rating this judicial ruling "second only to the Emancipation Proclamation" At all events it placed the obnoxious primary practice outside the law. According to the Denver Star the Supreme Court of Colorado recently decided that colored pupils may attend school parties and that the ac dont. Its programme is given a wide and prominent publicity and his speeches also have been generally well-reported. But, curiously enough, no journal-has so far authoritatively, that is editorially associated itself with his views, which are indeed very clear, unequivocal and strong. As his speech and doctrine are not yet well understood, he has given a great confusion in the popular and it has found its unmistakable expression in the writings in the Indian press.

The Germans and Russians were conducting honest trade with China their relations, continued smoothly, and her allies continued government what more threatened the Chinese. tion of the Denver Board at barring such appeals from social functions is declared 'hostile and contrary to the Constitution.' We quote from the opinion of the court. The demurrer admits that the order denies to the colored pupils rights, privileges and benefits allowed the white pupils of the school. If the establishment and supervision by the school authorities of the swimming pool, and classes in Junior, High School and the Special activities in Manual Training High School are the authority of the official school, it was stated. As counsel on both sides argue this case upon the assumption that such activities in both schools were within the province of the auxiliaryities, we so assume, but do not decide, and upon that assumption hold that the demurrer should have been overruled to each ground thereof because the attempted classification is clearly prohibited by the Constitution. The wrong is done by the entry and enforced against each of the plaintiffs by defendants in the same capacity, in injury of the plaintiffs in the same way, in violation of the same constitutional provision and requiring for relief the same judgment, i.e. the abrogation of the order. The judgment is reversed with instructions to overrule the demurrier. Four judges joined in this opinion, while two dissented. Ament the discussion of segregated schools for Negro children in Denver the Colorado Labor Advocate summed up the case editorially by saying: "Education and segregation will not both work." Treating of industrial conditions in the North, as set forth at an Urban League meeting, held in Boston, the Boston Chronicle said editorially; In Ward 9, where large numbers of colored citizens' live, the Tuberculosis Association discovered that Negroes are dying at a higher rate than in ten other large cities that they have studied. This high death rate implies the having condition. The house that a man lives in it is determined by his economic return. An intelligent policy for the development of the Negro's ability and his economic possibilities is one of the needs of New England. Colored women need the discipline of regular hours, steady training of order and system. They need also to become a part of the strong labor group to share its working class ideals. The employer who can supply himself with faithful, loyal, cheerful and helpful employees to do his unstilled and semi-skilled work should consider himself fortunate indeed. A field from whence to recruit labor this class and one from another employer in the activity of the country are coming, to appreciate more and more every day, is the Negro population of the community. The lesson drawn was for Negro youth to launch out, make sacrificed and if necessary suffer deprivation in order to secure economic opportunities. The W. E. O. M. Monthly Message is the official organ of the Supreme Lodge of the Woodman of Union published at Hot Springs National Park, Ark. The March issue contained an appeal by John L. W. secretary treasurer, in which he said: It is pitiful to use the number of people being closed out of their home because of the low price of coal which makes it impossible for them to meet their notes and mortgages.

The emergency seems to be the demands government are through the machinery provided for it properly. with an array on machine guns warships, and armies. These naturally they resent and object to. As regards treaties he said, that were signed by the Chinese empire, who no longer control China, people who were no longer under the Emperor's government forced to recognize those treaties. This meeting was held he said for the sake of telling the Chinese that the Indian forces were sent to China despite the strong disapproval of the Indian Nation which was helping Indians were out to help for the Indian forces in China and their allies (Loud and Constant applause.) in China there were military nations on land, countries including India, but they were very fairly treated by the Chinese.

St. Luke's, 2.48 was the, Bible reference of the, morning text. How we can loose Christ, was the burden of Dr. Cullen's sermon in which he sought to correct the impression of 'once in Christ never out'. It is quite as possible the burden of Dr. Cullen's sermon after once gaining Him as it is lose any of our earthly possessions, declared the pastor.

Singing Dr. Cullen preached in sixth annual sermon of the Martha Tabanacle, Benevolent of Love and Charity. His sermon was about a woman referred to in 2.

Harlem Second Seventh Day Adventist Church "The economic, social and spiritual problems of today seem no nearer their solution than; they were nineteen hundred years ago;" said Pastor Strachan last Saturday morning to his congregation at the Second Church. "The pastor teaches that Christ in the lives of professedly Christian men would solve every world problem; that might possibly arise." Continuing, the pastor said: The religious world has built Christian institutions, but it has endeavored to make progress in eliminating the Spirit of Christ from its calculation. The religious world still measures success in terms of material things. Christ taught his followers that life is more than meat. Churchmen today are learning the lesson no better than did the Galileans nineteen hundred years ago; nothing is more paramount than machinery, organization and material things. Christ and His Spirit have evacuated. The mind of the average church member today is more largely taken up with the task of making a living than it is with that of more important things living helpfully; living honestly; living fully; living as the Lord designed he should live. "This is an age of tools, of wheels, of levers; this is an age of organization; an age of big concerns, which accomplish things by way of mass-production. A group of five, thousand people may achieve something wonderful, with probably only a hundred hands actually employed. All this serves to hide, or shield or amabilize the speed and quantity out of mass-production. We care nothing about the lost energy or inertia. "If Jesus Christ should come to the earth today, He would issue no call for a general assembly, where we might meet to discuss ways and means for ameliorating the suffering of the poor. He would expect each believer to do his utmost in a direct attack. In the absence of Christ, we build our society, and use on our grandparents and through their mechanical contrivances we keep up our religion. We leave to a lifeless soulless institution to do the very thing Christ designed the individual to do." St. Mark's M. E. Church Services in St. Mark's M. E. Church were largely attended throughout the entire day. Rev. Jenkins, evangelical, preached a powerful sermon at the morning service and will preach each evening which began Sunday. Revival which began Sunday. At 2:30 p.m., the pastor: Dr. John W. Robinson, preached the annual thanksgiving sermon to the Knights of Pythias, N. A. S. A. E., A. A. and A. In the evening, the pastor to the Daughter of New York preached the last Sunday. The preaching of the latter sermon marked the closing of the 4th year of Dr. Robinson's pastorate of St. Mark's Me. E. Church. At the closing of the evening service, the pastor and family greeted the members and friends of St. Mark's in the dining room and held an information Sunday March 20, the Junior Church conducted the morning service. The auditorium was filled to capacity. The Sunday school largely attended. Miss Minnie Brown, chanter, is rehearsing the pupils in music for the Easter exercises. She was a good attendance at the services of the Epworth League. The program was under the auspices of the Anmphion Trio. The topic for discussion was "The Realty of Invisible Forces," led by L. A. Greene. Memorial flowers were given by Mesdames Loutte Sououth Lucas and the late Owen Station in memory of the late Mrs. Scars, mother of Mrs. Lucas. The fifteenth anniversary and Golden Jubilee reunion of St Mark's M. E. Chureb which was held on Thursday, March 24, was a brilliant success, financially, socially and numerically. A magnificent program was rendered by a galaxy of artists of the highest order. A notable feature of the Golden Jubilee was the "presentation of $150 in gold to the Reunion Committee, by Class II, by J. Laws, leader of Class No. 11, and was received by John H. Turner, chairman on behalf of the committee and the church. First Emmanuel Church At the 11 o'clock service, Sunday, Pastor, Holder preached an inspiring sermon to the many assembled His text was: "And a man's loos shall be 'they' of his own household." Theme: "The Enemies Within Your Household." When David had I have been impressed to talk along this line, this morning because of the recent happenings that are so prominent in the minds of the people today. The word enemy, or enemies, has a most prominent place in the Old Testament. Even King, David was surrounded by enemies. And our Lord, the Christian lived in this world in the midst of them and was killed by them. Not people who were poor, regardless to them, regardless to whether they are right or wrong. Nearly everyone believe they have enemies. But this may be, the opposing force to the highest idealism in their lives. If you study the context of this text you will see that it is about our Lord the Emmanuel teller's disciples what they would meet and contact in the world. He tells them He is going to send them into the-world as sheep among wolves. They knew that wolves were carnivorous animals and loved sheep meat. Jesus did not see a Christian sation on earth. He would not see him. He depicts to them the wolves that would seek to eat them. Some people think Jesus our Lord the Emmanuel came, to bring peace on earth among men. But He says: "Think not what I am come to send peace on earth. I came not to send peace, but a sword. For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter, against her mother, and the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law." His mother-in-law takes their old customs and habits and traditions and the divine. life energy flowing from His personality and consciousness, "through the mind and activity of His apostles and disciples, constitutes a leaven and yeast element that produces explosions in the carnal mind and sensual life of the people. There, what it takes to make our social order revealing to us the awfulness of sin and wickedness may be classed as part of the work of the Holy Spirit, executing judgment and creating righteous consciousness among the people in the world of humanity. The recent brutal and criminal murder of an unsuspecting husband in an affair of treacherous such and her clandestine teacher such an awful, cruel and wicked deed that it shocks the sensibilities, and, perhaps, most people are saying and thinking that, they would never be in such a relationship and commit a similar crime. But I say the day will come, when even more treacherous deeds will be done. Prophecy is being fulfilled. The scriptures tell of this The Lord. The Lord. The consciousness Father-God was a member of the household in the heavens. Jealousy, and covetousness for the place of honor and 'power that was occupied by the Son, who was in the bosom of His, Father, the Word of God, caused this great angel of light and limited dominion to make war in the heavens. And the angel of light and limited dominion out as the first foe, enemy and evil force in a household. Since that day this 'evil spirit has been seen from the earliest times up to the present in the family life, in the community life, the national life and the ideal life of the people. Therefore we who make an effort idealism need brings our carnal senses and impulses under the control of our Lord Jesus Christ the Emmanuel, who has said: "My grace is sufficient for all things." No one knows what they are going to do before they die. The Chinese war today refers back to this text. The educated Chinaman of his household. For the man's intellectual him. Throughout history and biblical writings man's enemy has been of his household. Think of Cam and Abel. Think of Julius Ceasar. The foes of one's household are always those close in that household. Don't set your affections up on things of the earth but hear of opposing mentalities upon things above the carnal mind. Don't be a betrayer. For "a man's foes shall be he of his own household." Sunday school at 2 p.m. At the evening service Pastor Bolden continued his discourse of the morning service. This also was helpful in the crisis. Much stress and emptiness is being laid on the Easter Rally. Each and every member and friend is asked to do their part, and helpless carry on this work for Christ and His Kingdom. Splendid music was rendered by the choir at both the morning and evening service. A musical recital Thursday evening by Prof. Andrew Williams; interacial artists. Friday evening fashion show.

Even now, one can travel more quickly in some parts of the country by automobile than by train. And it is becoming more apparent each day that the airplane is destined to play its part as a medium in passenger transportation. But neither the automobile nor the airplane will ever be able to take the place of the fast railroad train in romance and glamour. Aside from their rapid-transit features, there is nothing glamorous or romantic about either the automobile or the airplane. Neither possesses that allurement which causes the small boy to crave to be his driver; the grown-up to wave his hand in friendly salute; the timid to stand back in awe if it passes. There is something about these fast railroad trains that gives them a glamour which even the old steamboat; of which so many romances have been wowed, never possessed. The something is undefinable-elusive, if you will-but it is there; it exists. And it is mostly during the hours in the night, in some small by-way village, that you can best appreciate their romance and glamour. Of course if you are a prosale, matter of fact person, immune to the ligaments of imagination, little will these fast moving conglomerations of steel and iron drawn by ponderous steeds, which emit shrieks of warning as they thunder through the village, breaking its otherwise rustic serenity, impress you. But if you, are one of those persons whose imagination is alert, their passing will fascinate you. As you hear them go through, your thoughts will be similar to those of a person who stands on the busy corner of a city thoroughfare, contemplates the crowd as it passes by, and wonders if the crowd has ever ending to its comings and goings. These iron steeds pass in quick succession. Seemingly, as quickly as the roar of one dies in the distance, the long blast blasts of another is heard. And as they tear through the village pulling their load of cars and human freight, appearing as though pursued by demons from the underworld, your thoughts revert to the city's crowd and its endless march. The coming and going of these fast trains represent the same endless march. All through the night, the one long blow, which is a station signal and the two long and two short blows, which are crossings' warnings, are the village portion: It is the only recognition the village gets from them. But it is in the village that their glamour will be best understood. And it is furnished mostly by those trains that pass in the night. Picked Up Here And There THE PASSING OF BRISTO FITTS After struggling for more than ten years to rid himself of the grip of ill health, a struggle in which the loyalty of his wife never once wavered in its intensity, Briita Fitso, veteran Pullman porter, and husband of Mrs. Mabel Fitso, one of the best-known and most famous Pullman service, succumbed in the Yonkers Hospital on Tuesday morning, March 22, to the ravages of the disease which he had fought so long and doggedly. A man well along in years, the passing of the veteran did not come as a complete surprise. The last attack of the illness from which he recovered from his home in Nepper Heights to the Yonkers institution, portended the beginning of the end of the persistent struggle. The death of Bristo Fitts brings to the forefront a drama, which, in these days of human耻辱 indulgence, ought to abruptly to itself. It is the drama of a wife who, although many years the junior of her husband, and who, at the time he was first strenched with the aliment that he had been given, the fist of young, vigorous womanhood, has so conducted herself during the entire period of her mate's illness as to earn the sobriquet, 'Queen of the Rolls,' a striking instance of the degree of womanhood in which she is held by the men who come in close contact with her was furnished the written several months ago. There were a group of young porters, most of whom are unmarried. Mrs. Fitts has remarked that the starked one of the party's is the type of woman I should want for my wife. Appreciate the severity and intolerance of youth, the remark struck the writer as being about as sincere a compliment as a woman would wish to seize. It is one of the ironies of life that some persons require the reining influences of death to bring to the fine points in their character. "They call it Rails," happens not to be one ooze. This column takes this occasion to express its opinion of her Joyalty and devotion. Mr. and Mrs. Frank Savage, or 1924 Seventh avenue, entertained a party of friends at their home on honor of their mother, Mrs. Mary Hill, who returned to her home in Petersburg, Va., on Friday, March 5, after a visit of several months to the guest of her son and daughter. One of the common complaints against American readers is that they do not digest thoroughly what reads, although they are avid readers. Now, my dear Mr. Ford, I am most positively inclined to the belief that you did not read carefully the comments I made with referrer to Pullman porters and yourself to Pullman porters' "Kicked Up" notes of the March 1991 issue, which shall deem it a favor if you will re-read those comments. If after having done so, you are still of the opinion that I manifested criticism therein, I humbly apologize, and that you let it go at that. That writes that you and Mr. Cross can both be enthusiastic than you and I. The Interstate Commerce Act-Its Effect Upon "Jim Crow" Rail Statues (Statutes) The interim Commerce Act passed by Congress on February 4, 1887, and of vital interest to passengers and to shipmen of commodities and articles of production, finds that the Commerce Act of 1887, of the Constitution of the United States, which provides that "The Congress shall have power * * * ... to regulate commerce with foreign nations, and among the several states. * * * * This authority, in commerce, cautiously reserved to the United States, met its first severe test in the celebrated case of Gibbons vs. Ogden, in which the governor resigned to reserve solely unto themselves the right to: navigate in commerce on the Hudson River. The Act to Regulate Commerce is designated to regulate trade rates as applied to persons or property moving in interstate commerce. Thus the rate on cotton moving in interstate commerce via rail: from New Orleans, La., to. New York, N. Y., must be the same, regardless of the state in which the shipment via what route (unless specially routed) the shipment moves. Likewise, the fare per passenger from New York, N. Y., to. Chicago, Ill., regardless of what rail carrier the passenger, selects, must be the same. The Act to Regulate Commerce makes discrimination as to fares or rates, service rendered, and equipment furnished, a wrong for which damages may be recovered from the offending carrier, or from the claim on the part of carriers toward particular shipers. It seeks to preserve equality in interstate commerce between all who may be involved in trade or travel. Following the passage of the Act to Regulate Commerce, the Interstate Commerce Commission was established as a quasi-judicial interpreter of the law, with power to hear hearings and apply to offending carters. To the Negro freedmen of America, the Act to Regulate Commerce has been, and is, of great moment; and though but few cases involving the Constitutional rights of Negro passengers have been determined, there is reason to believe that within the next few years this Act will have a far-reaching influence upon the status and privilege of Negro travelers. Of particular interest in this connection are the job requirements, practically all of the southern-states, and limiting Negro passengers to restricted quarters and service. Further than this, under the "Jim Crow" laws, inferior equipment has been repeatedly tendered to and accepted by Negro passengers, upon the theory of the "Jim Crow" laws, whose rights do not mean identity of rights. In fact, the U. S. Sipreme Court has held that the Interstate Commerce Commission has no jurisdiction over commerce, entirely within the confines of a single state; and that, insultingly, Jim Crow laws efficiently enforced at least, so far as intrastept passengers are concerned. On the other hand, however, it has been, long since determined that an interstate passenger is under the legal protection, in commerce, of the Federal commerce clause, and under the Regular Commerce, and that, hence, discrimination against such passengers as to service, quarters, equipment, or fare, is clearly a matter reviewable by the Interstate Commission upon the submission of proper proof, how, upon such proof, such discrimination, properly and substantially adduced, has been placed upon record, damages may, lie against the offending interstate carrier. This is the ultimate effect which the interstate commerce act may, have with regard to "Jim" from the statute imposed properly imposed upon interstate travelers.

S FROM INDIA Special Correspondent strike of, harbour workers which interferes with the food supply of the Island, but the authorities there have not taken any panic measures, like those enforced on The B; N, Railway. The prohibition of meetings and the use of the military are likely to irritate the strikers. If the statement of the General Secretary may be believed, the members of the Auxiliary Force at Kharagpur have the power to extremely irritating conduct, as they merely question their position in driving out the strikers from their peaceful demonstration. Let Than Live on Grass Serious, 'famines have, visited the Districts of Breach, Bread, Khaira, and Bijapur and several parts of the country. Signs of the failure of crops were evident far back from the month of October last. However the Government started with the incorrect request of the government exacting of the revenues in full, has already destroyed the sustaining power of a few people to an alarming extent. The doleful tale of sufferers of the farmers who sent prayers and petitions to the government was of no avail. In some parts of the country, having themselves to such an extent they die for want of food. And yet the Government is running the farmers by exacting the revenues telling them to buy, borrow, beg and steal but give the devil its due. Such being the conditions, the Indian national Congress through District Committees has been asking for the supply of food supply in villages, and an appeal for funds has been issued. The Railway Scandal. The Railway policy of the Government of India received well-deserved enclosure at the hands of the non-official members in the Legislative Assembly when they passed a resolution for a reduction of a demand under Railway board. The whole of the policy of the Government of India in its various aspects received scathing criticism, and the Government, Mr. Jeenagar, Pandit Mothal, Nehru and Lala Lajpatra, exposing fully the pretence on the part of the Government that the administration of the Railways was being conducted with a scrupulous regard for economy and in Indian interest. Pandit Mothal referred to the 'wagons scandals' and the coal purchases, both notorious instances of the reckless manner in which that automatic and irresponsible trimvizmate, the Railway Board. There are over thirty thousand wagons are uselessly purchased when quite an equal lot is being idle. Yet the Government goes on importing thousands of them, every year, as unemployment was rife in England and the English-wagoon building had to be supported, which preference has ruined the Government recently the Government closed down some of the factories of their own. The wagon scandal is not the only scandal for which those in charge of the Railway administration of the country are responsible. Recently a situation, arose in Calcutta which involved the dismissal of several European officers of the stores Department of the East Indian Railway government to conceal and minimize the importance of the incidents, people and the Indian press came to know of the scandalous coal contracts and the sleeper purchases; Quite contrary to this is the lot of the Indian third class passengers. During 1923-1924, 510,000,000 were third class passengers, as compared Babies Love It For all stomach and intestinal troubles and disturbances due to teething, there is nothing better than a safe Infants' and Children's Laxative.

It kills the germs call for the railway board to philippe boyle book in the good of the greatest number, which is accepted by every educated person. Indian railway authorities are thus proving that 800,000 are greater than 110,000, an absurdity which none would admit. The number of passengers is an excuse of passengers in the way of removing excessive troddens in lower classes. The Railway Board, which is spending millions of dollars every year by way of capital outlay, could not provide for this increasing traffic. The traffic of passengers in lower classes has not risen all of a sudden. There is a gradual rise, and the inability of the railway companies to cope with this demand is of long duration. Special third class trains for Poona and Bengal concessions to these are allowed. But when the questions of ordinary passengers are raised, an official answer of stereotyped type is given. The pilgrims are carried in good trains and the wagons used for such purposes bear this mark: 10 Horses, 12 Ponies, or 29 Pilgrims. What more hardships can be imagined from this carriage of men in the mountains? The conditions of the Indian summer add more trouble to this. The third-class fares are the maximum laid down by the Government in some of the railways; while the upper class fares are reduced considerably. The railway-member for reducing the upper class fares is a sort of consolation for small children; The upper class traffic has been reduced con-derably and, for this reason alone, concession should be allowed to passengers to, travel by high classes. But those who could not afford to pay higher classes—the total number of passengers being the same! Setting aside the number of such passengers the earnings have been affected very much, and the earnings well compensate for the little loss. But, to show that those who can pay the least are most heavily taxed, third-class fares have been kept as they are, while higher fares have been reduced a great deal, and many concessions to induce more travelers to be offered. There are no such inducements to the lower class passengers. "Platforms are short and the power of engines are limited and therefore long trains cannot be run to avoid congestion of trade." This is another lame excuse put forth. We have many times observed that trains run from the railway department as "double-head," i.e. with two engines. But this "double-head" system cannot in the opinion of the railway authorities, it seems, be practised for third-class passengers. When mail trains are long by the addition of special bogies of first and second-class—as by additional mail vans, short platforms are limited traction of engines does not come to the railway authorities as these passengers alone they rise up in revolt! Uncivil treatment by the railway authorities to the third class passengers is characteristic of India. As a matter of fact railways are worked for the convenience of the travel public and the staff is paid for their work. But far from giving any relief or help to the passengers the railway does not to "To harbour this" "Mismanagement." India wants independence, in which lies her own salvation Autocracy In *reelsis*.

AMAS commanding the immediate release Sikh prisoners. How could a Viceroy with any claims to any constitutional methods disallow a motion which was not only 'introduced but actually passed in the Assembly in 1924? And what words shall we use to condemn the Government of the Punjab and The Government of India for the continued incarceration of Sikh prisoners who were sent to jails for reformation of their religious shrines, after the new Curudwar (Reformative Law) Act, which functioned in the Punjab with the fullest cooperation of all sections of that great community? The Government have, thus inflicted a double wound on the Sikhs and we will not be surprised if the Viceroy's usage serves to reckle the fires of agitation among them. The Only Course The Rev. U. QTTAAMA it will be remembered, distinguished himself as the astonest and most courageous fighter in Burma against British official repression. He is now in jail, but so nervous is the House Member in the Burma Government about giving the public even the meagre information about the jail where he has been lodged that in the Legislative Council session during the week, he went out of his way to elk the leader of the Council as to when Rev. Oktawa would be released or at least where he was imprisoned at present, the Home Member remarked that there were twenty to thirty thousand Criminals in the Burma jails and it was not possible for him to remember where each one of them was. To express their resentment of this atrocious remark, which the Home member refused to with,raw, the members of the Home Rule Party, the Nationalist and Swaraj Parties in the Burma Council, he self-responsing course constitutionally to them. This contempt for popular feeling which the Home Member exhibited in his churlish attitude and worls only shows how strongly entrenched official-dom in Burma is in its autocratic position Alcohol As Food Who can say that the Government of India does not care for the problem of starvati in which millions in India suffer, after reading the report of the debate on Prehibition in the Council of State this week.? According to the D'Director General of the Food value that is evidently why the Government of India is so deadly against every attempt to introduce prohibition in India. How can it in its anxiety for the welfare of the millions for which it is a "trustee" allow that an article of food, alcohol, is denied to them? Incidentally the consumption of this article of food is a revenue which is bovine for the Royal Commissions Loot and many other estimable objects connected with the proper preservation of the duties of trusteeship. Official representatives in the Council of State could not stomach the idea of prohibition. The craving for drink according to Government benches is "implanted in person" in the form of this "implantation" perhaps with a deeper and more ultimate knowledge of the subject, but it as a relief to find that in this country every religion has warned its adherents in the strongest possible terms against malfeasance: this, grazing. The failure of Al-Pantuki to impress the opposition on the majority of the opposition is achieved at the binding of bureaucracy, only shows what an uphill fight public opinion in India has to wage in winning prohibition. --- DOBBINS COAL CO.

And fine texture means small bubbles. This provides two distinct advantages: (1) Small bubbles hold more water and much less air; they give more points of moisture contact. (2) They permit greater penetration down to the base of the beard. That's where poffening really comes. That's where the razor does its work. When the beard is properly softened at the base with Colgate's razor pull in entirely banished. Buy a tube of Colgate's—then compare it with any other shaving method you may have used.
