DR. PERRY CHENEY FACES LONG PRISON SENTENCE
U.S.SENATOR BINGHAM DENOUNCES RACE PREJUDICE IN THE ORIENT
Senator Bingham of Connecticut Is Bitter In Condemnation of Actions Of Whites Towards Oriental People
Snobbery, Discourtesy, Assumption of Superiority By Nordics Given As Reason For
BY RIENZI B. LEMUS
Boston, Mass.—"What coming in here? Get the he Chinaman, and go down to building with the rest of Such, according to U. Governor Hiram W. Bing the greeting accorded a man by the white paying International Banking Co. China.
Boston, Mass.—"What the hell do you mean coming in here? Get the hell out of here, you d——d Chinaman, and go down to the other end of the building with the rest of the Chinamen."
Such, according to U. S. Senator and former Governor Hiram W. Bingham of Connecticut, was the greeting accorded a cultured, Chinese business man by the white paying teller at the Bank of the International Banking Corporation in Shanghai, China.
Senator Bingham—not only witnessed the incident; he was part of it. The Senator was visiting the Chinese gentlemen whom he knew the Yale and the goose in the bank for the purpose of identifying the Chinaman, who wished to cash a check for $1800. Senator Waxed Wroth.
This and other incidents in China and the Philippines, which Mr. Bingham extensively toured during his Yale and the Goose in disguise, diagnosed and finding almost similar conditions in his active Hawaii, And, it was at a dinner in his honor given by Territorial Governor at Honolulu that he related the Shanghai incident and unloaded generally in almost vicious condenation of Nordic arrogance in the Orient. The Boston University professor of the Bingham speech published in the Honolulu papers of September 3, in its issue of October 11.
of these 'whose palms are greased so that everything they get hold of will stick.' It was at this point in his talk that the Senator related the occurrence at the Shanghai bank, when he sarcastically referred to the white teller as 'the gentlemanly Nordic' "Bingham told of visiting the parks in the city (Shanghai)—parks on Chinese soil in a city where Chinese pay over a cent of the taxes. And in reading the Chinese, he "obligated" to read the Chinese or dogs allowed. He told of talking with another cultured, educated Chinese also a Yale graduate in Thienstin and asking him what was the real reason for the anti-foreign feeling in China.
No Friendship Possible.
The eyes of the Chinese blazed, he who was replied that that was the insolence, the snobbery and assumption of superiority of the white man, his insulting treatment of the Chinese on their own soil. Never the Chinese said, can
Arrogant Shobbery.
"It is," declared Senator Bingham, "the arraigns snobbery, the studious discountey, and the assumption of superiority of the white man that are to blame for the revolt of the Orient—the anti-foreign movement, in China, the demand for independence in the Philippines".
"And this snobbery, discountey and the assumption of superiority on the part of the white man are beginning to be shown here, in Hawaii."
"I am, I believe," continued Senator Bingham, "the only American representative of government who has ever refused to enter the doors of the Army and Navy Club in Manila." The reason was that cultured, representative Filipinos "such as Osmena, president of the Philippine Senate, and Manuel Queson, speaker of the House," are not permitted to cross the threshold. When informed of the prejudice to the natives, Senator Bingham declinel to be the club's spokesman, saying, "Then I am sorry, gentleman, but I shall not be able to accept your invitation."
Nordic Affrontary
According to the Hontolulu papery, quoted by the "Boston Herald," "Senator Bingham 'prefaced his remarks with the statement that he had some things to say that might hurt but he believed they ought to be said. And then he opened up and said them. He shared nobody but poured out his indignation and contempt, alike upon those, who worship only the golden calf, those who use religion as a cloak behind which to hide their selflessness and greed and those supercellious whites who have the affection to go to land of the color rain and treat their inhabitants with mobbah arrogance. I want to tell you right now said Senator Bingham, 'that if a half-dozen of the prominent white people of Manila were to write a few of the cultured and prominent Philippines to be their guests at tea, the agitation for Philippine independence would die right then and there.'
Greedy For Richest
The Connecticut Senator was at white heat in his demurition both of white missionaries and white business men British as well as American, who go to the Atlantic with a feeling of superiority over the native inhabitants and only for the purpose of enriching themselves by any methods, available. He spoke contemptively.
t the hell do you mean tell out of here, you d—d to the other end of the the Chinamen." J. S. Senator and former sham of Connecticut, was cultured, Chinese business teller at the Bank of the corporation in Shanghai, of those whose palms are greased so that everything they get hold of will stick. It was at this point in his talk that the Senator related the occurrence at the Shanghai bank, when he sarcastically referred to the white teller as the gentlemanly Nordic "Bingham of visiting the parks in the city (Shanghai)—parks on Chinese soil in a city where Chinese pay 60 per cent of the taxes." And in these帖子, said are "signs reading, to Chinamens dogs aided. He told us talked with another cultured, educated Chinese also a Yale graduate in Thentian and asking, him what was the real reason for the anti-foreign feeling in China.
No Friendship Possible. The eyes of the Chinese blazed, he said, when he replied that it was the insolence, the snobbery and assumption of superiority of the white man, his insulting trey of the Chinese on their soil. There the Chinese said, can there be any friendship as long as the white races send men to China, whether missionaries or business men, who treat the Chinese like dogs." "Turning them from the Orient to Hawaii, where he was born and raised, and whose people are his own people, Sengham is warning that "There's beginning to be too much of that kind of thing right here." Senator or Bingham, who is six feet, three angular and erect, has opposed intolerance on the floor of the Senate, and it was during a running debate that noisy Jim Reed of Missouri, "hit a natural" by Bingham's interruption, to accuse the Contecuctus Senator's stature, and called him—"the call Connecticut swearme."
5-Year Old Girl Hurt When Struck By Taxi
Little Phyllis. Ford, five years old, who lives with her parents at 260 West 143rd street, was run down by a taxi Wednesday, and seriously injured. It is alleged that Phyllis was playful in the street, near the corner of 145th street and Eighth avenue. A taxi operated by David Foley of 272 West 136th street, going west on 145th street, knocked the child to the ground. The driver of the car swerved his car to one side of the street, and so avoidled passing over the body. She was taken to Fax for her body. She was found that she had a contusion of the leg. She was treated, and removed to her home later.

Attorney Ralph Warrick of 200 West 135th street is in receipt of a letter from James Mason, who was saved from electrocution by Gov. Smith in an eleventh hour reprieve, the death sentence being commited to life imprisonment, in which Mason thanks with hearty sincerity Attorney Warrick for his efforts.

Why Fred Moore Should Be Elected Alderman In The 19th Assembly District
Having lived in the City of New York for a number of years and being a constant visitor of that great metropolis for the past twenty years, the writer has made some loyal and constant friends in this great city on the Manhattan Island. We have still a large circle of acquaintances living in the "Negro Heaven". Without presuming at this distance to dictate politics, even though I am living in the "New York of the South", all New Yorkers ought to sustain some relation to each other. I happen to know that in every campaign there are lots of intelligent people with good intentions, who find themselves at the fork of the road of confusion and indecision as who will make the best servant of the folk. It is on behalf of such persons, I venture this tip.
Fred Moore ought to be elected for the following reasons:
First: O account of his unquestioned and unquestionable loyalty to the race's interest.
Second: Because of his uncompromising devotion to the welfare of the group at much personal sacrifice.
Third: Because of his ability to stand up on his hind feet and express the courage of his convictions.
Fourth: Because of the continuity and consistency with which he has sought to advance the interest of the race, through his contribution toward reconstrucing public opinion.
Fifth" Because he will stay hitched wherever fundamental issues are at stake.
Sixth" Because his contact with various welfare agencies and institutions has socialized his thinking to a point of enabling him to encourage social legislature on behalf of "all the children of all the people."
17-YEAR OLD BOY SAVES WHITE GIRL FROM DROWNING North Carolina Negro Lad Named 'James' Is Hero In Deed and Thought
Danville, Va.—A 17-year old Negro boy, whose name is given as James, proved himself to be a, hero of the first water in both deed and thought when he saved from drowning a 17-year old white girl, Vivian Adkins of Penhook, whose father is one Pittsburgh County's产ers farmers. The girl was riding back to hack to a small mother by a small mother, on another horse. They had to cross a small creek about a mile from home, which, ordinarily, is only a foot deep and easily ford. To torential rains had swollen the tiny creek into a raging rapids, and the girl unwittingly rode into the swift waters. In midstream, the horse lost footing and animal and rider were swept downstream. The horse panic stricken, turned his horse and galloped madly back towards home, screaming for help. A half mile from where the girl attempted to cross the creek runs into Pigg River, and this stream was also swollen far beyond its usual limits.
Quik Think Saved Girl
As horse and water were struggling, the young boy boy, James, heard the call and ran to the river bank. But he could not swim, and so ran along the river bank, calling encouragement to the girl, until a spot was reached where a tree with overhanging bought stands on the bank. The boy told the girl to grasp a branch and on while he ran to get rope. In a brief time he was back with a set of lines.
He lassooed the girl, then made a turn of the rope about the tree, and held her above the raging waters for more than an hour, when the mountain steeped as rapidly as she risen, made possible for her rescuer to wade in and bring the exhausted girl to shore.

Dr. E. G. Clifton Leaves

After thirty-three years of faithful and constant leadership, the Rev. Dr. E. G. Clifton has been obliged through a long eighteen of illness, to resign as vicar of Saint David's P. E. Church. The Bronx. Bishop Herbert, in his sermon at Saint David's last Sunday, paid a fine tribute to the constructive work of Dr. Clifton in building up the Bronx church and deplored the necessity for concluding of such splendid services.

DR. P. W. CHENEY
CONVICTED ON
ASSAULT TRIAL
Stabbing: Charge Followed
Auto Collision At 145th
Street, 8th Ave.
Following a trial that lasted two days, D. Perry W. Cheney of 200 West 135th street, was covicted in the Court of General Sessions by a jury. Thursday, October 13, on a charge of assault in the secon degree, Sentence will be pronounced this Thursday, by Judge William Allen and unless given a suspended sentence, she is liable to a term of one to five years imprisonment or a fine of $1,000.
The assault charge came as a result of an automobile accident last Christmas at 145th street and Eighth avenue. Following accident, Cheney enraged in a fist fight with Hyman Pincus, with whose automobile the doctor's car collided. It was alleged by Dr. Cheney that John Torpey, a bystander, came to Pineus' assistance in the fight with a lead pipe in his hand. When the doctor saw Torpey he pulled a penilife and him in the region of the heart.
Torpey, who is twenty-three years old, was rushed to Harlem Hospital and at first, it was thought he would not recover. He remained at the hospital two weeks and listened to the trial, that he was brought through his counsel. Attorney Coffillius, McDougald, Dr. Cheney claimed self-defense but this claim was not substantiated by the evidence. The District Attorney was able to produce a number of witnesses who testified that Torpey was not engaged in the fight and that there was no crowd of witnesses at the time as he at first alleged. Although Mr. McDougald was able to produce Dr. Leo FitzNearon, head of the Medical Corps of the 369th Infantry, and Col. William Taylor, commanding officer of the 369th, as character witnesses, he was unable to secure witnesses to bear out the testimony of the doctor that Torpey had attacked him with a knife. After three hours deliberation, the jury returned a verdict of guilty on the second degree assault charge. He had been indicted on two counts—first and second degree assault. A group of local physicians and friends are making an effort to receive him for Dr. Cheney, as it is feared he will lose his license as a physician should he receive a prison sentence.

Drs. Dett and Turner Back Up Student Strikers At Hampton; Resign When School Is Closed
Hampton Institute, Va.—The growing unread among the students here since the addition of the collegiate division five years ago came to a head Saturday, October 8, when several hundred boys marched from Ogden Hall in a body in protest over the keeping of the hall partly lighted during the showing of a motion picture.
The boys in the collegiate department were permitted to accompany girls to the weekly movie but the young people were closely watched and the impression got about among the students the keeping of the building partly lighted during the showing of the picture was so the teachers could better watch certain conditions. This alleged espionage was resented by the students as a reflection on their character.
Further resentment was shown Sunday morning, following the incident of the night before, when the boys in the College Department living in San Francisco followed ad ill as was the initial clikks. And church services, the general student body would not joint with the choirs in singing the hymns.
taking college courses at Hampton have not had the personal liberty and freedom as have other college students. According to reports numerous pleas by the student body for less supervision have been repelled by the faculty and the resentment therefrom culminated in the present situation.
Dr. James E. Gregg, principal, has set on the following statement setting forth the closing of the school, at the same time assuring the guardians of the students these classes will be resumed with only those students admitted who sign a pledge of loyalty.
Dr. Gregg's Letters.
400 Quitt Clauses.
On Monday, about 400 young men absented themselves from classes and, presented a statement of grievances to the Administrative Board. This the Board refused to accept until the students had returned to classes and on Tuesday the grievance was the first to be addressed Wednesday the Administrative Board took up the grievances, and at the same time announced that all students who participated in the strike were on probation and would be dealt with individually. The commandant began dealing with the strikers individually, by sending the leaders' home under the command of the police body had been led to believe there would be no retaliation by the faculty and when a large number of students were suspended the strike was renewed, with almost the entire student body participating. Thursday morning, Dr. James E. Gregg, principal, announced that the school would be closed during the strike and money would be refunded to those students who had paid their board and tuition in advance.
Dett and Turner·Resign.
During one of the meetings of the Administrative Board, Dr. R. Nathaniel Dett, for the past eleven years head of the Music Department, and Dr. Thomas W. Turner of the Department of Biology, expressed sympathy for the lettering of the press that the representatives were so hotly resented by the other faculty members that they immediately tendered their resignation. So far as The Age was able to learn, no action has been taken on these resignations. Hampton has always been a military school with discipline stressed above everything else. In trying to make the institutional and industrial school into a college, the administration has at the same time tried to retain the military features.

And - for - this - reason - the - students
taking college courses at Hampton have not had the personal liberty and freedom as, have other college students. According to reps, numerous pleas by the student body for less supervision have been repelled by the faculty and the resentment therefrom culminated in the present situation. Dr. James E. Gregg, principal, has sent out the following statement forth the facts landing up to the loss of the school, at the same time the parents and guardians of the student classes, will be resumed by students with only those students being admitted who sign a pledge of loyalty.
October 14, 1927.
To the Parents or Guardians of the Students of Hampton Institute:
An unfortunate series of events beginning last Saturday night, October 8, has been marked by such indetermination and disorder among the students as to make it necessary to close the Institute until further notice. The outbreak was precipitated by dissatisfaction with the lighting of Ogden Hall at a moving picture entertainment at Saturday evening. On Sunday morning the college students in James Hall refused to admit this inspecting officers, and the whole body of the students, aside from the choir, took no part in the singing at the morning and evening service.
On Monday morning the serious consequences of this attitude and spirit were explained to the students by the principal, who also emphasized the importance of attendance at classes and other scheduled work as an evidence of loyalty and cooperation. Nevertheless, a large number of young men, possibly four hundred, absented themselves from their classrooms and shops, some undoubtedly under intimidation by others, by appointing a committee to present an argument to the Administrative Board, but this the Board felt obliged to refuse to consider as long as the petitioners were "on strike."
On Tuesday afternoon the strikers returned to their classics, and on the same evening the board considered the committee's complaints. Some were not of great importance; others were distinctly noteworthy; several were impracticable; several were such as could not be adequately answered without investigation. The board willingly agreed to consider them carefully, and to confer again with the committee. Inquiry having been made concerning the discipline measures the strikers would be taken against the strikers the Board made it plain to the committee that it could promise only to try to be absolutely just, and to do whatever might seem best calculated to prevent a recurrence of disorder.
On Wednesday afternoon the following vote was passed by the Administrative Board:
The Board's Action
I. Young women and new students are assumed not to have been responsible for acts of deliberate insubordination, and therefore as not being subjects for discipline in connection with the recent difficulties.
II. Students who abstained themselves from classes and scheduled work are put on probation, such probation to be removed by the Commandant as rapidly as evidence is given of satisfactory conduct and right spirit.
III. Those guilty of imbondment or of inciting others to the
---
consequences for our probation imminent. Their future disciplinary will under consideration by the Administrative Board, and their will be dealt with individually and as rapidly as possible. This was a disappointment to many students, who had been led to rumor to expect a general rumor to expect a general punishment for misbehavior; and indeed, during the strike was resumed. Administrative Board thereafter felt obliged to pass the following vote:
School Is Closed.
2. Hampton Institute is closed further notice. Students who desire to remain may be permitted趴 on the grounds until classmates can be resumed, provided that they satisfy the school authorizations of their loyalty, their purpose, the rules of the School and cooperate to preserve its order and peace. Applications for such permission may be made to the Commandant and the Dean of Women and will be submitted to the Administrative Board. All other students are expected to meet the Commandant's promptly and so far as possible allowances or deposits by calling at the Treasurer's office. Any who have insufficient means to reach home should consult the Treasurer, the Commander, or the Dean of Women.
Some young women and a large number of young men have resided to their homes, not a few of which the expressed intention of rescuing as soon as the disturbance is ever. Four young men, quite possibly ringleaders, have been severely dismissed. Survivors of a number of carers will probably be necessary. It is the intention of the authorities to reopen the minute soon—if possible within few days.
Some Gratifying Elements
Among the gratifying elements of the situation have been the love of the new students, especially those responsible for the maintenance of the School household, the comparative steadiness of most students, and the universal condemnation of the strike by the members of the staff and by the alumni.
We have declared from the beginning that Hampon Institute cannot be carried on with students who are disorderly and lawless. We have welcomed and shall welcome back all students who give back all the necessary equipment to cooperate in the officers and leaders in maintaining peace, order, and the mutual friendiness and confidence without which no school can be truly successful.
For the Administrative Board by JAMES E. GREGG
Must Pay Board.
The following is added for the information of parents or guardians, although it is of special interest only to those whose sons or daughters have left school but may wish to return. The informative Board realizes that many students who have gone home were in no way responsible for inciting disorder, but were carried along by the crowd and in the excitement of the moment went home with others who were leaving. These we shall be glad to receive back soon. A free will and return at once; for classes will be assumed very soon.
We shall require all who wish to return to apply in writing to the vice principal for re-admission. This application must be accompanied by a pledge of loyalty and abediction of return. Studies of copying will be required to pay for living expenses to November 1 the amount re-faced at the time they left. No deduction for the absence of these few days can be allowed. No enqueue or other fees will be re-required. If the application for re-admission is accepted, in order to give the applicant the chance to be sent by the Institute at once by telegraph, to the applicant's expense, if so re-received—I, E. G.
900 Students Left
Following this utterance from the Administrative Board, more than 900 of the 1,200 students left for their homes. Students lacking skills for this purpose were supported by the school officials, about three hundred, mostly girls, were called into their classes on Monday, and a formal reopening was scheduled for Tuesday morning, October 25, when students who have left school will be permitted to return providing they have filed applications and received an acceptance not later than October 24. Dr. Gregg made announcement to this effect on Sunday morning in the school building and stated that the entire teaching staff is the institute ready for the reopening of normal conditions.
The Student Defense.
Local interest in New York City is intensified by the fact that John D. Rockefeller jr. who is listed as one of the largest contributors to the work at Hampton, has asked Dr. Gregg for a statement as to conditions as the school, which request preceded the issuance of the statement given above as coming from the school. Further interest is lent by the fact that five young men, students of Hampton, who are being educated by Casper Holstein of New York City, reached the city on Sunday, coming from Hampton. They reported to their benefactor, giving the students' side of the case, submitting a statement of the Students Strike for Justice" in which it is set forth that petition to the administrative offices have usually found their way to the waste baser.
These petitions, it is declared, dealt with matters in relation to the school, the teacher staff and
the circumnavion, and for certain social privileges to be accorded the senior classes. It is also stated that the turning on of lights in the moving picture hall, ostensibly to ensure correct decorum on part of the student body, was regarded and interpreted as a direct insult to the student body, especially to the young women.
Mr. Holstein, in discussing the matter with his protégé, took the stand that while their case may be entirely just, the students had erred in not submitting to arbitration before entering upon a trilogy. He suggested that the students might have strengthened their case by such action, and that failure to do so would have worsened their case. The students placed at Hampton by Mr. Holstein are Cyril Stephen, Lushin Picklewood, Melville Savvita, John Normill and Alexander Moorehead. It is intended that these students will apply for readmission to Hampton and return to that institution for the formal opening of classes on the 25th of October. They entered Hampton from New York City.

So many parents of the day public schools have said, "If I only had known what my child was learning when he began to go to school, I could have helped him."
In order that the parents of the 1A children, that is, of the children in our beginning schoolmay not voice this regret when their children are old and need parents for parents to help children in the 1A are herewith suggested:
HOW PARENTS CAN HELP THEIR CHILDREN IM !A
Physical Welfare
e, parents can advance their children in service, seeing that the proper diet is arranged fortant. This would mean many vegetable water and a little meat as will keep the day in the middle of the day. This meat is. Where the child brings lunch to school, avoiding giving money to a child and allowing him to keep the child well fed in the well-to-do family as in the poor child seriously, the second item to receive the parents deep and the conditions under which the child should have ten hours' sleep, and if at all possi and in a room where he can be quiet. The wn, partly at the top and partly at the bottom, should have ten hours' interest by definitely in for the toilet. He should be taught need for. He should not, be taught to stand up over disinfectants protect the seats and they are day. Parents should give the child his fini fion by impressing him with the rights of himself, or the room floor, or the toilet to wash himself, or the room floor, or the toilet to wash himself, or the room floor, especially in the teach children to wash hands always about should inform themselves about the vital out decayed teeth, tonsils, about adenoids, or their children by responding at once to the by the experts about the child's health. Parents about the clinics of the city.
At home, parents can advance their children in several important ways. First, seeing that the proper diet is arranged for the normal child is important. This would mean many vegetables, milk and cereal, water and as little meat as will keep the child strong, given once a day in the middle of the day. This meat or fish should not be fried. Whare the child brings lunch to school, fruit should be part of avoiding giving money to a child and allowing him to buy food. Avoiding giving money to keep the child well-diminutive occurs as often in the well-to-do family as in the poor family and retards the child seriously. At home, the second item to receive the parents' thought is amount of sleep and the conditions under which the child sleeps. The 1A child should have ten hours' sleep, and if at all possible, he should sleep alone and in a room where he can be quiet. The window should be wide open, partly at the top and partly at the bottom. At home, the third care of the parent is personal cleanliness. The parent will forward the child's interest by definitely instructing him to wash himself, to use good care in using the seat. He should not be taught to stand over. The school strong disinfectants protect the seats and they are cleansed several times a day. Parents should give the child his first lessons in social sanitation by impressing him with the rights of others in the matter of wetting himself, or the room floor, or the toilet floor. Parents should warn their children to respect themselves by discussing no private matters with other children, especially in the toilets. Parents should teach children to wash hands always before eating. Parents should inform themselves about the vital measures to be taken to ensure their toilets are safe, advenoides, etc. They will greatly assist their children by doing so to the recommendation made by the experts about the child's health. Parents should inform themselves about the clinics of the city.
Mental Welfare
the parent should teach the young child to be dark, fear of the various officers with whom he as a policeman, doctor, nurse, teacher, etc. of respect for authority, as it often does, child by ridding himself of any antagonism ority,
it, the parent should master that teaching is at it takes years to master. The parent should learn from the teacher, rather than criticize him, emphatically. It will help the first year to wise his play at home and in the first year to home. The parent does the IA child must he know his alphabet. Or, should the parent be able to write his name, he is taking the child. Both of the above points are too and have long since been placed higher up in the parent should cast off the idea that things are was taught. The parent will help most by giving the IA to school to handleckers and rubbers, etc. of lessons to the teacher.
the kind of training a parent may give a class of habit formation. The parent may teach and unbutton his clothes, lace his shoes, tie a rubber, hang a coat and, open an unschool as soon as possible without an escort and address when asked. These are some of teach. With this equipment the teacher can reading and other subjects contained in it.
First, the parent should teach the young child to be free of fear of the dark, fear of the various officers with whom he comes in contact, such as a policeman, doctor, nurse, teacher, etc., should not take the place of respect for authority, as it often does. The parent will help the child by ridding himself of any antagonism he may have toward it. Secondly, the parent should realize that teaching is a science and an art which it takes years to master. The parent should, therefore, expect to learn from the teacher, rather than criticize that which often he does not fully comprehend. It will help the little child for the parent to supervise his play at home and in the first year exact no lesson doing at home. The parent does the 1A child much harm by the abdomen. The parent should blame the child for not being able to use his mouth to give him a reward away from the child. Both of the above points are too difficult for the 1A child and have long since been placed higher up for older children. The parent should cast off the idea that things are or should be taught as he was taught. Thirdly, the parent will help most by giving the 1A child a penil to bring to school, a handkerchief and rubbers, etc., and leaving him alone. Fourthly, the kind of training a parent may give a child is largely along the lips of habit formation. The parent may teach the child to button and unbutton his clothes, lace his shoes, knots, put on and take off rubbers, hang up a coat and hat, open an umbrella, come and go to school as soon as possible without an escort and to tell his name and address when asked. These are some of the things a child can teach. With this equipment the teacher could begin at once on the reading and other subjects contained in the cou of study.

RULES FOR CHILDREN PLAYING IN THE STREET
W. C. Bachelor, Superintendent of Recreation in Pittsburgh, has suggested that all mothers teach their children these safety rules in regard to playng on the street:
1. Remember that a street is more dangerous than a railroad. Stop before stepping off any curb, look left, then right, and wait until the street is clear 100 feet each way. Never cross between parked cars or behind a street car. Get your fun back later than in the street. Remember you can't have much fun on crutches.
3. The streets are for traffic. Walk, roller skate and run your skooters on the sidewalk.
4. Do your coasting in safe places. Use a street only when it is not being used for traffic.
5. A ride in the street car only costs a car check. A ride on the back of a car may cost a leg or your life.
6. Remember the hours after school are the most dangerous and the boy on girl under 7 years is in the greatest danger."
Will all mothers who read these columns please cut out these safety rules and teach them to their children.
How To Study
many children have not learned how to study. class is supposed to show the children just how to home. In this process of showing, the teacher with the children until each child understand that class is supposed to go over the work by himself if the physical condition of your home, giving your child an opportunity to study at home, or reading lessons equipped with a writing desk, a chair desk, and has it plenty of ventilation? If because he has not proper place to study at if the home is noisy and a lot of little children the time? It is well worth the while of or a definite time when her home will be given an opportunity to study
Attendance
We still in this Harlem district a number of kids that going on errands, taking care of ching to pay the gas bill, or to pay the rent, are sufficient to interrupt the child's work, to send your child on an errand, ask your son were at work would I keep him home from his errand? If not, do not keep him home of sufficient importance to interrupt the child of the end of the term many children are left to that from 9 to 3 school attendance is the child's life
A great many children have not learned how to study. The teacher of each class is supposed to show the children just how they are to study at home. In this process of showing, the teacher goes over the work with the children until each child understands what it is. Then the child is supposed to go over the work by himself at home. Ask yourself if the physical condition of your home are well adapted to giving your child an opportunity to study at home. Has he a quiet place where he may study his reading lesson? Is the room where he studies equipped with writing desk, a chair, comfortably placed? Is he able to plenty of information? May his child be left back because he has not proper place to study at home. How can he study if the home is noisy and a lot of little children are disturbing him all the time? It is well worth the while of each mother to arrange for a definite time when her home will be quiet and her child will be given an opportunity to study.
Attendance
There are still in this Harlem district a number of mothers who seem to think that going on errands, taking care of children going shopping, going to pay the gas bill, or to pay the rent, and various other reasons, are sufficient to interrupt the child's work at school. Before you send your child on an errand, ask yourself this question: If my son were at work would I keep him home from his job in order to do this errand? Not, not do keep him home from school or to care for the child's immediate needs. Work. At the end of the term many children are left back, because mothers forget that from 9 to 3 school attendance is the most important thing in a child's life.

STUDENTS GIVEN BANKING PROGRAM AT W.VA. INST. Credit Union Organized and Operated By and For the Students
Institute, W Va.—The West Virginia College Institute, John W Davis, president, organized last year a Credit Union, a banking department, for the purpose of giving the students a program of vocational training in business and to teach African people. Thomas E. Possey professor of economics, is in charge of the operations of the union.
In the September issue of "The Bridge," the official monthly publication of the Credit Union National Extension Bureau, Mr Possey has an article in which he gives his observations as to the actual operation of the credit union, to which "The Bridge" have an explanatory forward. The article is attached.
FOREWORD—A few months ago a credit union was organized to serve the faculty and students of the West Virginia Collegiate Institute at Institute, West Virginia. We are very fortunate in that we are able to carry in this sense of the BRIDGE an account of this credit union's initial experience. Mr. Pony teaches lessons at the institute and his observations as to the action of this somber unique credit union raises the natural question—has the credit union a place in higher institutions of learning? This credit union has already indicated so much of real value that its experience would seem to open up a new field for successful credit union operation.
The West Virginia Collegiate Institute Department of Business Administration, organized and conducted successfully last year a credit Union which carried out in an admirable manner the idea of learning by doing. Analysis of the organization and functions of our Union demonstrate how banking is made practical for the students.
The first point to emphasize in connection with this project is that the bank is a bona fide banking institution, incorporated under the state laws of West Virginia, with a charter defining its powers and with its books carefully and regularly by the teachers and aminers of the State. The student who was elected cashier of the Credit Union is bonded by a surety company. The significance of the movement was impressed upon the teachers and students of the institution. They realized that although the project was conducted in a school and by school persons, they were meeting same requirements of a business. This was of invaluable and in gaming the confidence of the teachers and students.
C omp eration An Asset
In the second place, co-operation, an important asset in life, is taught the student through the medium of this organization because the credit union is a co-operative institution which any student or teacher can come to meet of our company by buying one share and paying an entrance fee. The share costs $1.00 and the entrance fee is 25 cents. This gives a member the right to borrow from the union, share in dividends and dividends in the interest of the company. A member may purchase as many shares as he pleases, but he

The way to remedy conditions is to join the community council of your neighborhood. When the representatives of your Community council go down to the Municipal Building to the executive meetings they can present the cause of your dissatisfaction and the community council of the city of New York, with headquarters at Room 2340, Municipal Building, will certainly endeavor to right these conditions for you.

Last week two members of the Colonial Community Council found two children in the street. The children were unkempt and poorly cared for. Investigation of their home by these two members showed that the mother was dead and the father either left the children in the street or locked them in while he went out to make a living. These two members of the community council conducted the children to the nearest school, Public School 40, and there the principal arraigned the children by the Speech of Prevention of Cruelty to Children in the Children's Court. The judge there highly complimented the two community council members for their thoughtfulness in bringing these neglected children to hisattention. He told the father that he must either have some woman relative to take care of the children, or the children would be taken away from him. The father sent for his sister and she is now giving the children proper care.
What community service have you performed? Write and tell us about it. If each member of the community did one service a month, there would soon be a great lessening in the amount of suffering undergone by children of the community.

New York has consisted of imposing a local assessment consisting of from 20 to 100 per cent upon property owners located in the various areas for this so-called improvement.

has only one vote, whether his holds by one share or one hundred shares. Democracy and competition is stressed through actual practice.
The Credit Union, moreover promotes thrift. One of the powers granted the Credit Union is that of receiving deposits. Every effort is made to encourage the student to purchase shares upon which dividends are paid, and to make deposits, upon which interest is paid.
The class in advertising, in conjunction with the class in Banking worked out several methods to encourage students to save. One such plan was the "Go to Columbus Club" through which students accumulated, by small deposit, a portion of our annual Thanksgiving football game. This was quite successful. Thrift talks, posters, and slogans were used extensively.
An Important Phase
One of the most important phases of the Credit Union activities is that of making loans. A student in nee dof a small amount of money to carry him over some financial difficulty realizes the value of a good character, willingness and ability to pay as proven by his financial standing. He is required by his reputation for honest and square dealing with his fellows. Only members of the Credit Union are permitted to borrow. The borrower makes application in writing to the credit Committee of the Credit Union. He states the purpose of the loan and the amount which he wishes to borrow. If the loan is under fifty dollars a responsible person endorser it is over fifty dollars, collateral has to be advanced. One per cent per month on the unpaid balance is the amount of interest we charge. The Credit Committee, which is composed of two students and a teacher, determines whether the person applying should have the money. The students on this com-munity are excellent judges of credit, and character for their fellow students. All the students to whom money was loaned paid it back.
This training teaches them how to
portage of character in business
Gives Business Practice
The Credit Union gives the student practice in business management. The supervisory committee composed of students, is responsible for and is on the financial affairs of the union. They inspect and audit the books at regular intervals. The cashier of our union exercises all the functions of a regular cashier in a bank. Each month he makes a financial statement of the condition of the Banking Committee. Twice a year he makes a financial statement to the Banking Commission of West Virginia. He receives and keeps account of all deposits and withdrawals in general is, responsible for the accounts of the bank. The policies of the union are formulated by the board of directors elected by the shareholders. They elect from their group a President Vice President. Secretr and Cashier they carry out the functions attendant to their offices.
The Credit Union teaches all the students connected with it the importance of courteous and efficient service. Not only must they be tactful in the bank, but everywhere in the campus the students connected with the bank evidences from actual experience that if they are not fair and square in their dealings with their fellow students on all occasions, the bank suffers. Our bank after its first year of operation has not paid out any large dividends in the form of service, practical experience and real training for life have been declared us is to join the community council representatives of your Community Building to the executive meetings, our dissatisfaction and the community work with headquarters at Room 2340, endeavor to right these conditions

FARM STUDY IS POPULAR AMONG GEORGIA YOUTH Men of College Grade In Pursuit of Agricultural Knowledge
Savannah, Ga.—That farming and the study of the various branches of agriculture is becoming more and more popular in some sections of the South may be understood when a study is made of the students enrolled in the agricultural college in the Georgia State Industrial College. One of the most interesting and outstanding facts is that a large number of men of college grade are here studying how to take advantage of every opportunity offered on the farms of this country.
Speaking of the large number of college men enrolled in the study of agriculture, President Hubert who is himself a graduate of the leading colleges of agriculture and an agricultural field says, it is the most optimistic step we can progress that I have been able to see in the past few years—men who have completed their high school work—men in the upper third of their class in scholarship—turning away from the professions that would ultimately lead to the great cities of urban population to prepare for a life of service on the farms in the rural South.
"It is clear to me that these men have a real vision. They are not going into the field of agriculture because they expect a life of ease. They accept the challenge of the farm and the farm people and are prepared to brave the handscape and hardships that must go along in order that they may make a contribution to human welfare. It is clear that Georgia State College points the way to permanent racial and national prosperity. Besides the large number of students in secondary agriculture, there are 15 young men in college agriculture and others are applying for admission.
The agricultural faculty of the Georgia State College came from Massachusetts Agricultural College, the University of Iowa, Kansas State Agricultural College and the University of Illinois.

Judge Salmon Deals 3-Month Sentences To 'Numbers' Players
Anna North of 277 West 122th street 40 years old was a fortunate woman on Tuesday October 11 when Judge Arthur L. Salmon in Court of Special Sessions, Part I, gave her a suspended sentence after she had been convicted on a charge of numbers playing and given thirty days on the Welfare Island Workhouse. She had been arrested on July 19 act by Patrolman Ed H. Pruschen 8849) on the 6th Division on her own premises, when he found her with a quantity of numbers slips.
Robert Smith of 300 West 192th street, was not so lucky. He had been arrested at that number by Patronian Pruschen on June 27 charged with possession of numbers, ships, and Judge Salmon gave him three months in the work house to dupe out some winning numbers combinations. Another woman, Mary Christian, 42 years old, of 66 West 193th street, was arrested on May 1 at 68 70 West 193th street by Patronian Michael J. Kennells, who charged that he found her in apartment 21 on the 6th floor in possession of a quantity of numbers, ships. Judge Salmon also gave her three months on Welfare Island to ponder on her luck.
And another three months sentence was pulled out from his park by Judge Salmon when he found William Wingfield of 141 Wingfield 130 street guilty on a similar charge after he had been arrested by Pa. Judge J. Daniel F. Markle 20621 Wingfield was apprehended on May 24.

Even though I cannot get there to register and help get the boys out to register, please feel assured that my pen and my voice shall not be idle or silent, either back home or here where the boys have gone up to qualify so that they may vote by mail or make the trip again in November.
Harlem would do her self a real credit to stand behind a tried citizen of your type and strangeness. This is an age of results.

Shaky Feeling Severe Headaches
Miss Theresa M. Dunning,

Tenn. (picture above) says:
"I suffered quite a bit
with weakness, and at times
would have severe head-
aches and would have to go
to bed. My limbs seemed
to draw, and I felt so weak
and shaky. This was just
before I graduated, and
I didn't want to lose any time
in school. I was listless
and tired all the time.
"Cardui was recommended. After the first bottle I felt better, but I wasn't willing to quit then. I took another and there my sufficiency in my feeling. I do not suffer now with headache—in fact, I feel well."

SEGREGATION IN THE NORTH. That increasing racial segregation is becoming a menace was indicated by the reports made by Miss Mary White Dyrington, chairman of the board of directors of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, following close upon her return to New York after a tour through the middle West, including Chicago, Springfield, Illinois, and St. Louis. She said that the mary school segregation case is worrying people throughout the West. It marks a manifest increase in segregation sentiment. She continued
"I was told in Chicago the story of how a Southern Sheriff, who had boarded a train with a colored man, Samuel Kennedy, wanted in Georgia, was made to climb out of that train by the Chicago Branch with but two minutes to spare. Later the same Sheriff and his prisoner were intercepted in Terre Haute, Indiana. If there had been no Branches in Chicago and Terre Haute or if the Branches had not been active, the Sheriff and his prisoner, the latter perhaps by this time a victim of a lynching mob, would have been by this time in Georgia."
As an evidence that members of the races are alive to the necessity of sustaining the National Association in its fight against segregation. Miss Ovington brought with her the sum of three hundred and fifty dollars contributed by conferences of the African Methodist Episcopal Church in Indiana, Illinois and Michigan. Miss Ovington emphasized the conclusion forced upon her by this tour, that the future enforcement of the rights of the race will depend upon their vigilance in guarding them. Recourse to the courts and the active support of such agencies as the National Association are the best means to this end. The example of Miss Ovington in giving of her means and strength to this cause should be an inspiration to others.
The Gary school strike which according to advices from that place, was prompted by the Ku Klux Klan, was sought to a settlement by an ignominious surrender to the spirit of intolerance. All but three of the Negro students were removed to temporary quarra in a junior high school, pending the section of the separate building voted by the common council at a cost of seven thousand dollars. Gary has several segregated junior high schools but no senior one. The number of Negro students in Gary is put at three thousand, of whom but thirty-six are registered in the schools with whites, according to Superintendent Wirt, who stood it against the strikers until overruled by the common council.
The most discouraging feature of the situation is the statement that this segregation was encouraged and brought out by the action of the colored parents in asking for separate primary, grammar and junior high schools. Separate schools are conducive to the growth of racial prejudice and intolerance, while fixed schools lead to better relations between the two races.

VOTING ON AMENDMENTS.
It is seldom that an election comes long, when the voters of New York state are not called upon to make some range in the constitution, which embodi- the organic law of the state. This ar there are nine amendments pro- ses to that instrument besides a prop- propion relating to the housing question New York City. Some of these chang- are so unimportant that it seems rulous that they should have to be submitted to popular vote. Nevertheless it is the requirement of the law, so voters might as well decide how they are going to vote on these amendments. Amendment No.1 provides for the ex- tive budget, requiring the Governor submit to the legislature a plan of opposed expenditures and estimated venues each year. This should bring out a reform in the matter of appro- sions for state purposes and insure a businesslike administration. Vote vex this amendment
It is seldom that an election comes along, when the voters of New York state are not called upon to make some change in the constitution, which embodi- t the organic law of the state. This ar there are nine amendments pro- sesed to that instrument besides a prop- osition relating to the housing question in New York City. Some of these chang- e are so unimportant that it seems rul- oulous that they should have to be submitted to popular vote. Nevertheless it is the requirement of the law, so voters might as well decide how they is going to vote on these amendments. Amendment No.1 provides for the ex- tive budget, requiring the Governor submit to the legislature a plan of opposed expenditures and estimated revenues each year. This should bring out a reform in the matter of appro- plications for state purposes and insure a pinesslike administration. Vote yes this amendment.
Amendment No. 2 gives New York
City authority to borrow three hundred million dollars outside the debt limit for additional subway construction. The necessity for new subways is unquestioned, but the wisdom of giving further money or power to the local authorities who have made such a muddle of the business is not so clear. If the voter thinks that there is any chance of the present city administration using this power wisely, he might vote yes.
Amendment No. 3 changes the grade crossing amendment so as to make the county and not the town the assessment unit in bearing the local share of the cost. This is necessary if the work of abolishing grade crossings is not to be held up in poor communities. Vote yes. Amendment No. 4 increases the salary of the Governor to $25,000, of the lieutenant Governor to $10,000 and of members of the legislature to $2,500. This is a proper increase of compensation in keeping with the increased cost of living. One can safely vote yes to this amendment.
Amendment No 5 rectifies an omission in a previous amendment. It makes the Governor the head of the Executive department in name, as he should be by right of holding the office. Vote yes, to correct this omission.
Amendment No. 6 increases the term of the Governor and other elective state officers and state senators to four years, the terms of assemblymen to two years. This would be desirable from many points of view. The objection raised by Governor Smith and his Democratic followers, that the election of State officers should not fall the same year as the election of a President, is too flimsy to weigh against the advantages of having a full vote cast on both state and national issues. The voters of New York State have shown their ability to discriminate between the two, without mixing the issues. Vote yes for No. 6.
Amendment No. 7 has to do with the building of a State highway in the forest preserve in Essex county. That a local improvement of this sort should have to be submitted to all the voters of the State is absurd. Vote no, so that a simpler way may be devised for dealing with such questions. Amendment No. 8 will permit counties to acquire more land than is needed for parks and other public improvements, and to sell the portions not needed for such improvements. As this permission is already given to cities, to facilitate the acquisition of desired property, this amendment seems to be a proper extension of authority. It should be approved.
Amendment No. 9 prevents the annexation of territory to a city without the consent of the residents of said territory. This gives the voters of the suburbs an opportunity to vote for or against their being swallowed by some growing metropolis. Better give them a voice in the matter Vote yes. Proposition No. 1 is for the approval of a local law permitting New York City to lease property for housing purposes This should be approved in order to give a fair trial for the municipal housing policy, from which so much has been expected
Changing the constitution is a continual performance in this state. The voters who would keep up with the various amendments and propositions must answer at least ten questions by yes or no on election day. This will be a simple matter enough in this city, where voting machines are in use. Just pull the lever down to the word "Yes" or "No," which indicates your intention and the question is answered.
SURVIVALS OF SLAVERY.
Sierra Leone is a British colony established over a century ago on the West Coast of Africa as a refuge for fugitive slaves That was when England outlawed the slave trade and treated the slavers as pirates Hence it came as a surprise to learn over the cables and by wireless that the Legislative Council of Sierra Leone just a few weeks ago had found it necessary to pass an ordinance formally abolishing the legal status of slavery The effect of this action was to give freedom to between 200,000 and 300,000 slaves
The existence of slavery under the British protectorate was announced by the Paris Daily Mail last March, and this paper sent a special correspondent to Freetown to investigate. The anomalous condition became public through the efforts of slave owners to invoke the law to recapture runaway slaves, many of whom were held by native chiefs in the interior. The discovery came through what has been called an English Dred Scott case. As described by the San Francisco Chronicle the facts were as follows
A runaway Sierra Leone slave was recaptured by his native master. The slave caused the arrest of his master on charges of assault and conspiracy to deprive him of
his freedom. The master was convicted in the courts of Sierra Leone. He appealed to the higher courts in England, with unexpected results. The King's Justices although exorcising the existence of slavery under the Brithi flag, reversed the conviction, holding that it had no choice under the law of Sierra Leone. The trial in England focused the attention of the British public upon the unsuspected fact of slavery under British rule. The resulting earthquake has brought immediate action by the legislative council of Sierra Leone in the shape of an ordinance freeing all slaves unconditionally on January 1, 1928.
The Daily Mail correspondent at Freetown, although certain of the adoption of the ordinance because of the Government majority in the council, was interested as to the attitude taken by the native chiefs from the interior, three of whom were members of the council. The abolition of slavery was regarded as striking a serious blow at their power, prestige and wealth. Another feature of the situation noted by this correspondent was the indifference of the non-official classes towards the question and the positive hostility of a section of the natives of Freetown, the capital of the Sierra Leone colony. He found slavery defended by the "so-called Creoles—who are actually pure Negro descendants of slaves freed in America."
All of these features can be paralleled in the history of African slavery in this country, including the Dred Scott decision, the owning of slaves by free Negroes and the enlistment of Negroes among the Confederate forces. The persistence of slavery in Sierra Leone must have been with the sanction or tolerance of the British officials of that colony. Now that Great Britain has moved to abolish slavery under the British flag, it seems about time for the United States to follow her example by stamping out the system of peonage which prevails in Mississippi. Louisiana, South Carolina and other Southern States. Even Abyssinia, in compliance with the demands of the League of Nations, has started a movement to wipe out the ancient institution of human slavery. So modern nation as the United States should not lag behind. Slavery should not be permitted to survive in any portion of the world, even though it is disguised by such terms as croppers or tenant farmers.
RACIAL CARRICATURES
Irish-Americans have a quarrel with the film makers and exhibitors of moving pictures. The sensibilities of the race have been outraged and their finer feelings trampled upon by the showing of such films as "The Callahans and the Murphys" and "The Garden of Allah" and other pictures ridiculing their racial idiosyncracies or slurring their religion. Their resentment was at first shown by vocal demonstrations of disapproval, raising disturbances in picture houses and disfiguring the pictures by squirting a black fluid on them. Then came a petition to the Federal Trade Commission and an effort to restrain the distribution of the obnoxious films. In this city an ordinance was presented to the Board of Aldermen to prevent the exhibition not only of immoral and indecent films, but also of those that "tend to ridicule or disparage or hold up to obloquy or contempt any race, creed or nationality, or are calculated to arouse racial, national or religious prejudice."
No race in this county has suffered greater ridicule and disparagement than the Negro, none has been held up to greater obloquy and contempt, on the stage in the films and in the daily press. And yet the status of the Negro has been steadily gaining in public esteem and his doings and his sayings have been taken more seriously than ever before. When the vicious film of the "Birth of a Nation" was first exhibited in New York, its promoters sought to incite the colored residents to make vocal and physical demonstrations against it in order that it might secure greater publicity. The bait was swallowed and efforts were made to prevent its showing, but the city authorities proved unsympathetic and the film was allowed to poison the public mind against the Negro and to hold the Union cause up to derision. This film was more vicious than anything ever shown discrediting the Irish. The Irish, the Jew and the Negro are the stock fun producers of the American stage and the film has followed suit. A black face, a hook nose or a brogue and a shillelah can always win a laugh from the average American audience. Many comedians of these three races have capitalized this fact and shared in the profits of racial caricature. Of course, the burnt cork comedians preempted the field for Negro talent, but Bert Williams and others made an opening. Irish and Jewish comedians have made Broadway laugh and weep by their inimitable exaggeration of racial peculiarities.
While this sensitiveness of the Irish-Americans to film caricatures appears to have developed rather suddenly, we can fully sympathize with the sentiment that prompted it. We had thought that the pride of the Irish in their racial superiority was proof against all attempts at ridicule or disparagement. This resentment of caricature would suggest that the attainment of material and political success has developed a hitherto dormant inferiority complex, which resents ridicule. This cannot be eradicated by any of the methods suggested. Neither the suppression of the films by physical force or legal censorship will effect this. A race or a people must prove atself superior to disparagement by rising superior to any form of caricature, so that the shaft of ridicule loses its point. The Negro is striving to do this by earnest and serious endeavor in every avenue where an opening is presented.
WEEKLY NOTES FROM INDIA
By The Age Special Correspondent
"Mother India"
A notorious book, written by one Miss Catherine Mayo, is receiving widest publicity in United States and Great Britain, which is especially used as a weapon for a powerful propaganda against Indian aspirations. Some days back, writer complained bitterly against another article written by Mrs. Catherine Stuart, in which she has, in a most scandalous fashion, blackened Indian princes. This article was published in Boston Sunday Advertiser; She described herself as the daughter of an important official in Calcutta.
Evidently it appears that for such silly stuff, America is a good market, and Miss Mayo's book, we daresay, will find a large sale, due to political reasons, it contains entirely a recharge of all the worst that has been said of India by the more bigoted type of missionaries, globe-trotters and others. Miss Mayo had evidently been supplied with her materials by interested hands and she has put them together in some obvious haste. Any one can produce a book picturing the United States in a far worse light without going to the country, even for three months—which is the time this lady spent here
The refusal of the London Times to extend the hospitality of its columns to the letter of protest against the aspersions cast on a whole Indian nation in Mass Mayo's book is quite in accordance with the vulgar and offensive attitude of the British die-hard press towards Indian national sentiment. The letter, the London correspondent of the Allahabad says, has been signed by a number of Indian leaders now in London, who are mostly worshippers at the British shrine
Even the High Commissioner for India, Sir Alut Chatterji, has signed it, and in refusing publication for a document to which he is a signatory, the Times has not only been lacking in ordinary journalistic courtesy, it has also given afront to the Government of India insofar as Sir Alut is their accorded agent in England. It is indeed a pity that a journal like the Times, held up as a paragon of British journalism before the whole world, should have descended to such a level merely because of racial antipathy.
Present To Mias Mayo
Miss Mayo who has written a very disgraceful book on Mother India, was challenged to prove her various statements at a public over crowded meeting at Calcutta, but it will interest the readers to know that while Miss Mayo was at Lahore, an Indian gentleman was phoned by the Government police official to come before her and give evidence to support her statements which false information the gentleman refused to give, and has now sent a message to the press telling how she was enriched by the officials to misrepresent India. If these is wrong will Miss Catherine Mayo inform the public whether she met any of the Indian leaders or any social worker? This should at least warn the readers that Miss Mayo has out and out misrepresented India. Even Mahatama Gandhi said at a public meeting the half-truits and false informations would not make whole truth and Miss Mayo has grossly done an injustice to India.
Plight of Detained Workers.
The recent offer of the Bengal Government to Mr Satish Chandra Sinha, a detenon is rather amusing and therefore I quote them as under: 1. That you would not in future cooperate with any sedition movement 2. That you would not take any part in the secret importation of Arms and amunition Etc. 3. That you would not take any part in a movement which is based for the overthrow of the British Government. 4. That he should always inform the police of his movements and address. 5. That he should assist the government by giving out the names of those persons who are conspiring against the government. If these terms are accepted the Government is prepared to release him. No same man would accept this, as such a base offer indirectly binds the party, that he has taken part in such movements, while the case is otherwise. There is one detention who is confined in a far off place in Bengal, where hereby he is daily visited by serpents and wild animals, and there is no one to protect him. He is left to his stars and is suffering from apu. The pity is that such a cruel government has stopped his rations and is not allowed to come back. This is the benefit of the British rule in India.
The army in India is under the control of the Secretary of State for India, so announces Simla (Indian Government) through the press, just to remove misapprehensions in the public mind, Peregrinating ministers of the Crown treating about the Empire, free from the worries of answering questions in parliament, are apt to take a look around and see for themselves
No Poaching
how their colleagues are getting on with their particular charges. But we are assured that there will be no poaching
Sir Laming Worthington Ivan's the Secretary of State for War of the British Cabinet, will visit India during next cold weather, but his visits to the troops will be "entirely unofficial." The minister will be like a "cheil a-taking notes." His will be an imperial survey, an exploration of the defenses of the Indian Empire for the exclusive benefit of the British Cabinet. If he has, for example, anything to say about the necessity of perfecting on the Frontier a "mobile expeditionary force" or about the introduction of further mechanization in the Indian Army, he will after his tour, pour out his observations into the confidential ears of his colleagues. What have the Indian people to do with all this? Their job—to pay for the higher military expenditure which will follow as a result of the tour.
Indian Medicos Not Wanted.
Detailed information is now available of the selection test held a few days ago in Simla of candidates for permanent commissions in the Indian Medical Service. There was altogether 60 candidates, sent for from all parts of India at their own cost. They were examined orally in batches for three days, as a result of which 20 of them were asked to appear for the final sifting.
It appears that those who possessed Indian medical qualifications alone were declared unfit for permanent commissions, while those who could boast of some kind of English medical degree were selected en block. Amongst those rejected were three already holding temporary commissions in Indian medical service. This is manipulated from the Secretary of State for India in London. It is disgraceful to give preference to raw youths returned from England, and discounting the qualifications of Indian university.
Champion of Labor11
There are about 210 counter- liquor shops in the city of Bombay and the Municipal Corporation passed in February last a resolution appealing the Government to give effect to the recommendation of the Exise Advisory Committee for the reduction of eleven shops in the city. Government now re cannot at present effect any reduction in the number of shops, but that "advantage will be taken on suitable opportunities for closing individual shops". In defence of their policy they urge the usual clap-trap that any further reduction is sure to result in that shops irregular drinking clubs, increased drinking to foreign liquor, cocaine charas, methylated spirits, etc. This argument is so often flung at temperance workers by so many provincial governments, whatever may be the number of shops that it has be the number of shops that we would like to challenge Government to quote facts and figure showing that they have reached the limit to reduction and that any further reduction is sure to lead to consequences so wildly anticipated. Government is now content with this argument. They go further and say "I desire if any of the already insufficient numbers is sure to result in increasing the discomfort of and annoyance to the laboring classes, the great majority of whom are regular drinkers, (chance to the Government that knowing) perpetuates this, and this will indirectly be detrimental to the interest of industry. What unjust use has endeature for the feelings of workmen and for industry?" Is then to encourage塑性 that Government forces liquor shops in small localities? The foremost reason why United States has declared for prohibition is that it is conducive to efficiency of labor, and prohibition has everywhere proved the soundest of that reason. But here in India is a Government that has the hardihood to say that even restriction of liquor shops is detrimental to industry. It would have been more straight forward for Government to say, what every body knows, they want all their liquor revenue and, having the might, would claim the whole pound of flesh.
Two Stories In The Day's News
Two Stories In The Day's News
From Greensboro (N. C.) Daily News
The courage to risk one's life for the sake of another is happily not uncommon. But it is rare when the run of the day's news recounts two such instances of heroism and devotion as those which came to the Daily News yesterday from Stoneville and Stone, le and Danville.
Of Frank King (white) who brought the unconscious body of Reynolds McBride from the burning hotel at Stoneville, it is reported that he had to make two trips into a building already blazing fiercely, that the room in which he found McBride was "envelop-
The Baltimore Herald and Commonwealth denounced the "Grasping Greed of Baltimore Banks" because of the imposition of a tax of one dollar a month upon checking accounts that failed to maintain an average balance of two hundred dollars. It said.
According to Mr. H. B Witcox, chairman of the Executive Committee sixty to seventy per cent of bank depositors in the city average deposits less than $200. He contends that the minimum cost of these accounts is $1.00 per month. He cites an example of a bank with 10,000 depositors, of these at least 6,000 maintain averages less than $200 and must pay $1.00 per month or a total for all such depositors of $6,000 per month.
If it costs $100 per account then the bank must maintain an army of about 30 employees, clerks, and accountants, etc. at an average salary each of $200 per month for these accounts alone.
No one believes that it requires even a fifth of that number of employees and there is but one conclusion and that known the helplessness of depositors since all banks are in or controlled by this monopolistic action the controlling association banks are holding up its depositors just as banks are themselves held up by bandits. It is a species of small bandit upon their stockholders.
As such a banking practice has been common in New York for many years, one wonders why Baltimore was exempted from this tax. The average banker is not in business for his health a'one

In a grazing review of a biography written by Wendell P Dabney, which appeared under the heading of "Editorials By Edward David Coffee," in the St Luke Herald of Richmond, the book was published.
the reviewer concluded
If ever Providence provided this world with a lighthouse with a burning beacon on the coast of human life, that lighthouse with bright beacon must be the illustrious life of Madam Maggie L. Walker. The night, the storm, and the thunder of opportunity may howl and sweep across this world, but somewhere in Richmond, at the Headquarters of the Right Worthy Grand Council of the Independent Order of St. Luke, a beacon will throw her kindly light across the waves to every shipwrecked and struggling craft making port to land upon the shore.
This modern Maid of Orleans,
this benefactor of the human race
this meridian sun of Ethiopia, this
financial liberator of her people, this
chosest flower of womanhood, this

Dr N Lowe Burnett in his column "Your Health—How to Keep It," in the Boston Chronicle referred to the average physician's trouble in collecting pay for his services. He said,
The doctor is hedged about by tradition and ethics, and a deep feeling of conscientious duty to his patients, and is often quite enforced, as asked to ask for it.
He cannot like the labors, but the job because his money is not forthcoming. He must relieve the sufferer, he must get the patient well at all cost. His professional reputation depends on just that.
He cannot like the average man keep the sick man in confinement until paid, he cannot even add legs.
ed in flames, that members then were failing, and that unless he had fought his way in and fought it out again with the unconscious body on his shoulders the fire would have resulted in tragedy. Efforts are now being made to obtain a Carnegie medal for Frank King for risking his life to save the stranger.
The appeal changes in the story from Pittsburgh county of the rescue of a 17-year old girl from a creek freshet. Here it was a boy himself only 17 years old who was confronted with the emergency, a double emergency, seeing that he could not swim and therefore had to meet a situation which called for a difficult decision. A Negro boy it was "whose surname is given as James". His encouragement to the young girl and his assistance with the bines he obtained are credited with saving her life, but it is probable that the coolness and determination of the young girl, Vivian Ackins, had much to do with the happy result. Both of them displayed unusual courage and strength.
The two stories come like bright streams of light falling across much that is told of men and women. They give new strength, new courage and new hope to all who read.

He cannot, like the photographer, hang his creditors in effugy. It would mean his professional death in that place.
He cannot, like the lawyer dismiss the patient with the threaten dire alternative of impending punishment. No, he must care for the man's physical needs first, to heal is his foremost duty and money—well, if the patient so deserves he may get it later.
Some reader will ask what is all this to do with "Your Health and How to Keep it". Just this the physician is human. His reactions are the same as any other member of the human race even if his training has helped him to better conceal it.
In other words, if you expert painstaking attention from your doctor, pay him promptly.
Pointing out the distinction between "Experience and Training," the discriminating editor of the Philadelphia Christian Recorder said:
Too often colored people want to give places to men of experience, while progressive white people give them to men of training and ability. And right here we can learn a valuable lesson. We must learn it if we are going to compete with the white man.
What is called "experience among us is merely long service. It may not be intelligent or successful earlier more it is the experience of one man. He has done a thing his way for so many years, but he does not know anybody's else way. While the man of training studies all the ways and selects the best one studies the history of all ways and hence can avoid the mistakes in them all. Note an "experienced" farmer does not produce on his land what a trained farmer produces. We have schools in order that a boy in a few years can experience the history of the centuries. And if he is attentive he will learn in a short course what his father did not learn in forty years.
We got a letter from a brother who gave as a reason for electing him to a certain general office that he had had "35 years experience". But he did not seem to realize that he had not had one day's experience in the office he seeks. And we have too often made the mistake of putting "experienced" men in office instead of trained men.
Evidently the man with experience must keep up his technical training if he expects to quantify for promotion.

You will have to take our hat off to the Elks when it comes to doing things. With all due respect to other fraternal societies the Elks allways hear the cry of distress. In the Glass case, now pending in the U.S. Federal Court the Oak and branch of the N.A.A.C. I issued an urgent call for money and then more money. Athens Lodge had already contributed her annual $10. When the second call went out the brothers went down in their jeans and from the treasury made up the difference until the total reached $77. Shasta Lodge was right in line with a check for $10. Vaughan Temple with $10.
The Masons have been in the and the community of them. Vaughan Temple with $30. Aracca $25 and Vaughan Temple with Hannah set to bear. This is the proper amount for the dollars is all that we have to the Federal court.
Of course the effect that money to retain is felt with legal disbursements is to obtain a hearing in the
The fact which we are able to face firmly is that our country is not being deceived by an appurprable state, but by the native people, which we be shown by an analysis of the position. We have now more transport facilities than was the case a decade ago and we can move about with ease. Motor transport and the always have practically eliminated the system of head carriage which was the only means of conveyance a few years ago, and there is a deep harbour in building. But what the sum total of all these developments? Has our economic position improved upon what it was before the provision of these facilities? Are the people individually better off than they were before? Have they attached to the number of their jobs who need to be the pilots and secretors? There are the standards by which we can judge whether we are advancing or retreating and if we apply these standards the pursuit of this inquiry was a fool the results very unanticipated.
The fact is that the West Coast editor realizes that his people are being exploited to enrich their foreign overbords; his calls for the establishment of native industries to conserve the wealth of the country.

Tuskegee Defeats Clark Univ.28-12
Tuskegee Institute, Ala—Four thousand spectators saw one of the most bitterly contested football games ever staged at the Alumni Bowl on Saturday, October 15, when the Tuskegee Tigers scored a 28-12 victory over Coach Sam B Taylor's eleven of Clark University, Atlanta. Ga Tuskegee overpowered their opponents but the Atlanta team tough back with a fury sekdom seen here. Clark's hope of victory rose in the very first quarter when they scored a touchdown and held Tuskegee a long touchdown for this quarter.
But the hopes were dimmed again in the second quarter when Bailey and Westen began hitting the line. A forward pass from Stevenson to Smith made the score 130 in favor of Tuskegee. Stevenson knocked the goal. Roberts tunneled the ball, kicked it behind his own goal line. Aiger back covered it for the third touchdown, making the score 21-6. Tuskegee scored the last touchdown in the third quarter but the Atlanta speed stars continued to fight. A dark man slipped the ball on Tuskegee's 20 yard line. A forward pass gained 20 yards and Roberts but the line for the second touchdown for our team. Beck's try for the extra point was blocked.

"Porgy" Analyzed By Vreeland In Telegram
"Porgy, the play concerning the Negro which is being given at the Guild Theatre by a company of Negro players is attracting serious attention from the cognoscents of the drama. I especially interesting is the reaction of the reviewers of the theatrical events, and reference has been made in these columns to the views of Alexander Woolcott of the New York World and Percy Hammond of the New York Herald Tribune
And now comes Frank Vreeland of the New York Telegram who makes what might be termed a psycho-analysis of the play, declaring that in transcribing their book into a play DuRose and Dorothy Heyward have tried to "solidify all most intangible things into concrete, dramatic form-hardening the story thereby Under the caption, "Porgy' Leaves a Tough of Dark Brown Taste Negro Play Not So Stimulating as Expected." Vreeland writes as follows:
The advent of "Porgy on the Theatre Guild stage the past week lends point to the fact that it is now the mode to take the Negro seriously. Until the war, whenever an author thought of a colored character he presented him as a jolly pickanunny, and vaudeville hasn't yet worked out of that care free jocular stage. Then somebody—maybe it was Gilbert Seldes—discovered that the Negro has a soul and more wistfulness than you could crowd into one book
Hence it has become the fashion to make a great, solemn sanctification of the Negro and to find that his race has a message. Not alone is he given a "theme" and a "motif" on the stage—the vogue of spirituals did that for him, almost raising him to operatic heights. But to show that the ebony player had arrived as an "artistic force" the smarter, sophisticated people began inviting the more eminent dusky thespians to their homes, only to make pert, little saliets about them behind their backs. I regret to say
An earnest attempt to do justice to the Negro was made by Du Bose Hayward in his original novel of "Porgy" in which he described the innermost emotions of the black folk almost with the sympathetic accuracy of one of their own color who had an X-ray admission to their deepest secrets. It was a very compassionate and comprehending work, illustrating the depths of a long suffering race through a long suffering cripple who was the football of fate.
The burden of the book rang again and again—it's mighty hard to be a nigger. There was little hint that these brown skinned people had ever given an excuse for minstrel frivolities. Teeth that were bared in broad grus of memention in other books were here bared, primarily in a snarl or resentment. Fate assumed a drab chocolate hue.
In the play much of this has been lost in the effort to suddenly almost intangible things into concrete dramatic form hardening the story thereby. The book is larger, subjective the play, subjective the one atmosphere as twilight glimmerings the other as defiance as auto headlights. That is exactly the gap which sawns between the same story's success as a novel and its comparative barrenness as a play wherein the lot of a Negro doesn't seem nearly as hard as that of a Russian peasant. Maxim Gorky model.
A Black Ace Gets A Raw Deal
The suffering of the race is longer is graphically and individualized in the person at the heggar Porgs

who now seems no more important in the general gain than a brown caterpillar. Neither in his stage portrait nor in his acting does Porgy receive a fitting transcription from the novel for there is no hint of the far dim destines which seemed to becken him on to page 196 of the slim book. In the original the mendicant takes the final blow, that of his Bees dispareance, with apathetic resignation, which was natural in a character who brooded for a living. In the play at the end he sets out from Charleston to seek her in New York in his spavined goat chariot. It is a more dramatic turn, but somehow it seems too childish a step for even an ingenuous Negro who's lost his mammy
Heyward and his wife have probably dramatized the work as well as could possibly be done under the circumstances and when the shutters clash open and Porgy suddenly stabs his creeping rival in the dorsal vertebrae, it causes more of a dramatic slither down your back than in the book yet in the end you don't much care what happens to Porgy, because his identity has been shuffled into the pack. With the exception of Hauptmann's "The Weavers," and possibly the Capek's "R I R" mass plays, in contrast to individual studies, have never been able to agitate the brain cells of the spectator. It leaves a rather flat, dark brown taste.

"PORGY" A BIG HIT
"PORGY" A BIG HIT
Critics on all the metropolitan dailies almost universally agree that "Porgy" introduces to Broadway and America the Negro as a real legitimate factor in the dramatic field. Among the many excellent reviews is the one quoted in a past below by Burton Davis in The Sunday Telegraph.
Porgy, a drama about Negroes acted by a cast of forty that has only the white men in minor roles presented by the Theatre Could last Monday night has astonished and will continue to astonish many white playwrights. To them it is a revelation that the Negro has suddenly arrived as a congender for hunters in the drama. But the Negro has not arrived suddenly he has been there strongly entrenched for some time.
In their interpretation of Porgy by Dorotea and D Rose Heywood, these colored actors are merely cloning again their right to be taken seriously in the theatre. Porgy cannot be smiled away by superior whites as such an interesting attempt by colored people to be serious on the stage. It is more than an attempt it is a positive thought not a perfect artistic success. The record of the Negro in the legitimate theatre has grown to respectable length. The Negro innovation borrowed the whites within the past three years has radical effected America an popular music and a keen

A blind person couldn't fail to sense a distinct warmth in the chorus singing of the dark members of the 'Golden Dawn' cast."
Noble Sissle, former co-star in "Shuffle Along," is in Paris, following attendance upon the American Legion Convention, and has written an act for James B.

a caught, benee the prattice Coatisipes tp be a condoned system of
American justice, And there are few, if any, industries in this
conntry in which this method of detection is more frequently and ef-
fectively used than in the railroad service. When a railroad eni-
ployee 1s suspected of wrong doing, the agents provocateur of his roads
are pot upon Bis tracks, If'these agents find no evidence of this
against im by observation, they will resort to their master trick—
they will lore hint into it,
Sometimes it is mere sufpicion of an employee that causes him
torcome mnder’the espionage of these provocateurs; and if he isn't of
hardy character; ‘their methods of ensnaring him will in most cases
be nscetfa. A typical edemle of this tappened to a train conduc-
tar on a relllmown not 40 long ago.
Tie condudtor was an old employee of this road. He began
‘working for the road while @ mere lad. The many years of service
in its employment ted branded him with the mark of “old timer.”
For some reason the railroad had suspected him of hypothecating its
cash farex, So one of these agents was assigned to watch him.
For three months, the story afterwards leaked out, the operator
rode dally with this conductor. The conductor lived in a small town
agstate, whielt was the fershinas of his cun. In the meanwhile, so a3
‘not to arouse the suspicion of the conductor, the operator took up
residence in this town. He ingratiated himself with the railroad vet-
"eran to the extent that he was able to miake suggestons to the veteran.
Ds firm the olé rtilroader would listen to noe of thera and would
have severed’ acquaintance with his new friend then and there, bat
the man Was a inember of the same masonic order as himself, and was
such an agreeable person, it seemed merely a case of a friend who
had no companctions aboat cheating railroads.
‘Well, to eborten the story, the vateran succumbed to the fake
brother masont-guggestions, "A month later, he found Bimself ot of
the railroad service after thirty years employment. Of course, you will
way, he shouldn't have listened to the tempter, and so will I. But
wwe bottr will agree that the afethods employed were despicable,
Recently, thé story came of a Pullman porter who fell into the
snare of éde“ of these railroad -provocateurs,
There ig Barly any excuse that one can offer for dishonesty.
But it does seemn that a porter, with his meagre pay, should be the last
persom in the railroad service to be tempted to do wrong. He, of all’
extployets on the railroad, should be protected from temptation, not
indaced to it. Yet this is what happened to Porter Joe Smith of New
‘York. . =
Sniith was not coBsiddred an old employee in the Pullman service.
‘He bad only been running on the road for the past five or six years.
‘Yet, up to the time of tis fall he was appraited as 2 good porter. Ons
of his fellow porters who ran on the same train with him, declared
afterward that he was an exceptionally dutiful porter, And when
ove porter speaks of atither in such.compfimentary vein, it is no
Sale Iyudation, But Smith, despite this record, suffered a lapse in
uty, ind it all came about through one of theto secret sleuths.
‘There. is no evidence in the story that this particular porter was
singled out as the man wanted Jt may have been that the sleuth was
after an entirely different calprit, But whether or not that was the
case, Sorith fell for the ensnare of the provocateur. The trap was
‘that Smith was given four dollars for secreting a passenger in one of
the drawing rooms on his car, thereby cheating the railroad out of
the pagsenger’s transportation fare, which was practically three times
‘Yhe amount of the bribe given, The passenger, of course, was an
agedt of the, railroad. '
The inevitable happened to the porter, but unlike the train con-
ductor mentioned, he took the bribe more as a typ, and tips are the
increments on which the Pullman porter depends. Smith was much
dependens on tips at this particular time. He had just recovered from
2 spall of illness, and all the expenses that accumalate on the head
of a household when the head js stricken ill were stareing him, as it
were, in the face. You might say he was wrong for accepting the
bribe, and so will I. But did the end. warrant the means? After all,
he was‘only- porter. He should have been protected instead of pro-
voked ta the’ fare of bribery. z
Some day these agents provocateurs will, be considered a menace
to honesty. And in no place will this consideration ‘be of more bene-
{it than in the railroad service, }

"For fifteen years I have been using Black-Draught, when needed, for biliousness and constipation," says Mr. Jif O. Woolard of Oriental, N. C., "and I have always found it to be reliable and effective. It certainly comes up to all the good things that are said for it, and I am glad to recommend it.
"I have found that Thedford's BLACK-DRAUGHT
purge the system of the poisons which accumulate when the organs do not act properly, and I would not be without it. "I always give Black-Draught to the children for colds (when a laxative is needed). It is fine for that. "My trouble is chiefly constipation which is always accompanied by dull headache, beacons, and sore eyes. I think Black-Draught is the quickest and best relief for this."
