WARN YOUR BOYS WHITE STUDENTS STRIKE TO BACK GIRL CLASSMATE Refuse To Usher In Theatre Because Colored Girl Is Deposed Madison, Wis.-Alleging as a reason for his action that some patrons had objected to being shown to sell by a Negro girl, wrote W. C. Troutman, in charge of the University of Wisconsin Theatre in Baston Hall gave a colored girl a complimentary ticket to see the performance but would not allow her to act as usher. Then, forty-seven white student ushers refused to serve further as ushers in protest against the removal of their colored companion. Troutman explained that the girl, whose name he refused to disclose, and whose identity has likewise been concealed by the students, was one of a group of the workers' school who were allowed to view various productions in the university theatre in return for serving as ushers. The bride of the student ushers will have has as yet developed, but the students are firm in their declaration that unless the colored girl is restored to duty they will not serve. N. C. COLLEGE FOR NEGROES TO GET STATE'S $100,000 Raises $50,000 In Order To Get Half Of Legis- lature's Donation N. C. COLLEGE FOR NEGROES TO GET STATE'S $100,000 Raises $50,000 In Order To Get Half Of Legis- lature's Donation Durham, N. C.-By the raising of $50,000 from local white citizens, the North Carolina College for Negroes will be able to secure $10,000 of the appropriation of $200,000 voted two years ago by the State Legislature, the condition being that the college officials had to raise an additional $100,000. It was provided that half of the sum would be available when $30,000 was raised, and the success of this effort has been announced by B. H. Hammond, who stated that a large part of the sum was given by a local citizen who requested withholding of his name. President James E. Shepard is planning another drive to raise $50,000 more within the next few months so as to make available the second $100,000 of the sum. It is noted that the $150,000 hand will be put into the erection of an administration building, with offices and class rooms, to replace buildings destroyed by fire some years ago. Officials of the university are of the opinion that this is the first appropriation by a State Legislature to a state school contingent upon an additional sum being raised from private taxes and fees, and the recipient of congratulations from both black and white upon the successful outcome of the effort. The building commite. Dr. R. L. Flowers, vice-president of Duke University; J. B. Mason, hanker, and L. M. Carlton of Roxbore, met Saturday to select an architect and to arrange for reception of building bids. Actual work is expected to start within the next sixty-dave ```markdown ``` Harlem Jeweler To Take Mouth's Vacation At Former Home In Cuba L. S. Gonzalez, proprietor of the L. S.

Mrs. Zarlena Chavis Appreciates Age Story The following note from Mrs. Zerlena Chavis of 559 Lenox avenue, into whose apartment Clarence Donald attempted to enter in search of an alleged friend, Rebecca Donald, the whole trouble between police and citizens on the evening of Sunday, July 22, an account of which was published in the Age of July 28, explains itself: Editor of The New York Age I am a friend, than you thank for the calm and dispassionate way your paper presented the story of the "Harlem Riot." Both of the other local papers distorted the facts and labeled me in their stories by making it appear that Donald, the man over whom the double started, was a friend of one of them. "I am a respectable married woman, and had never seen this man before the day of the incident. The police came to my protection and that of my husband. We are glad to know that at least one of them was the same as this story correct. (Signed) (Mrs. ZERLENA CHAVIS)" Dean Lanier Wins M. A. From Leland Stanford Tallahassee, Fla.—For the first time in its history, Leland Stanford University, Palo Alto, Calif., has conferred the degree of M. A. upon a Negro, R. O'Haira Lanier, dean of the college department of the Florida A. & M. College." Rarely have Negro men and women been admitted to this university because of the unusual demands for high scholarship. Mr. Lanier received a fellowship and leave of absence from the Florida A & College, and matriculated last September. By superior degree, he earned the master's degree, which he received June, 1928. He received his A. B. from Lincoln University. He returns to the A. & M. College. That such information as will probably be dispensed through the governmental exhibit of retail business information at the session of the National Negro Business League, August 15 to 17, in New York City, is of vital value, is evident in the recent failure of a solvent manufacturing establishment which had to close down for lack of knowledge as to how to proceed to secure the necessary financial help in order to fill a substantial order from a big public utility corporation. The business in question was a broom manufacturing establishment operated by an expert broom-maker, a Negro, who had a plant equipped with machinery costing £2,000, all of which had been paid for. And the information at hand is that there were no debts of any sort, either in his business or personally. No Bank Connections. Altrough the owner had been operating for five years, he had established no bank connections; he had been purchasing his broom corn as needed from a rival broom manufacturing establishment, operated by a Hebrew management, and crocodile order he had was the short term purchases made from this firm. Then, when his Jewish supply people found that he was making a better quality broom than they were putting on the market, they boosted their sale price on broom corn to their customers a second a hundred of 10 cents. And as he had no credit connections elsewhere, the colored broom maker had to find the cash for every purchase of broom corn he made from other sources. Big Order Swamps Him. Then came an order from the Internet, which transit for 150 gross, a total of 2,160 brooms, on ten-day delivery, practically a cash transaction. But the tragedy of the situation was that the poor fellow could not fill the order since he did not have money enough to buy the necessary stock. But he did not have any source from which he could get needed information as to how the financial backing could be had. So, occurred the anomaly of a well-equipped manufacturing establishment, free of debt, having to shut down for lack of operating capital after five years of operating, and of producing goods of superior quality. Of course it did not come all at once. For gradually, as the manufacturer had been handicapped by lack of capital with which to purchase material he had been unable to supply the retail distributors; fading the stock; failing the retail distributors had to buy elsewhere; then came the I. R. T. order, and the camels back was broken. Pioneer West Virgmian Dies In Her 85th Year Charleston, W. Va.-Mrs. Susan Wilmer rayle, 58 years old, grandmother of Miss Amena K. Wilcher, teacher in the public schools on New York and a well known social worker, died here at her home on Saturday, July 11. She was one of Charleston's pioneer citizens, having settled here at close of the Civil War, and she was the widow, first of George R. Wilcher, and then of Henry Clay Payne, both prominent in local educational circles, and influential in the founding of Simpson M. E. and Virginia Collegiate Institute. Her home was conference headquarters for a quarter century of Frederick Douglass, Booker T. Washington, Byrd Prilerman, Henry B. Rice, William Davis, and others active in commercial, religious and educational growth of the Negro in West Virginia. Wilmer-Payne was an exemplar of high moral standards and an influence for good citizenship, good neighborliness and good christian motherhood. She is survived by three daughters, Meadames Wm. Stewart, Wm. Jackson and Geo. Byrd; instructors D. Warren and B. C. B. Payne and several dr. and great-grandchildren. According to a report printed in Brooklyn papers, Mrs. Louise M. Fayerweather, of 426 Herkimer street, prominent civic and welfare movements, has been adjudged incompetent to handle her affairs by a sanity, jurory before John McEhrary, appointed as commissioner by the Court, sitting in the Sheriff's office. Mrs Fayerweather formerly lived on Park place, and is credited with being quite wealthy, having inherited a large estate from her late husband. She was active in Republican politics, and was the first colored woman to attend the National Republican Convention as a delegate. She was a member of the 426 Convention, and has been moved to attend the 1928 session at Kansas City, but a stroke of paralysis just before convention*time prevented here from attending. Tolkias Urges Need For Better Housing Plans East Northfield, Mass., Assailing the increasingly crowded living conditions of the Negro populations of New York, Boston, and Chicago, the city's dangerous menace to the health and morals of the country as a whole, the Rev. Channing H. Tobias of New York City, senior secretary of the colored work department of the National Council of YM C. M. of the reasonable housing districts for Negroes in a recent meeting here. "Colored people must live somewhere. They believe that they should have the opportunity to show that they can be good neighbors. Unless openings are made such, as those made by Mr. Rockefeller, or the accommodation of those people, the people will jammed together that they will be a menace not only to themselves, but to the health and morals of the country as a whole," Mr. Tobias said. "The Negro, he is looking for a good home, and it is impossible to find decent homes because "it is not racial deadline in industry. Trade unions hold them out, wherever they can, and many establishments even in Harlem, where they provide 5 feet of enet of the trade, the hardest of the trade, actually no recognition so far as employment is concerned." $200. Not $2,000 In the story last week concerning the growing revolt among Negroes in the 19th A. D. because of the attitude of Leader Abraham Grenthal towards Negro adherents of the Republican party, the linotyper made a decision to three white women, district workers, $2,000. The amount should have been $200, as against $25 paid to Negro workers. Woman Drops Dead Mrs. Willie Oblastreil dropped dead on Monday, July 30, at 6:30 p. m., at 142 West 131st street.

Goes Into More Homes Direct Than Any Other Paper, Published. an Clifford Hawkins Is for Nomination To U.S. Oppose Weller, 'Dem.' Senate, 19th District, and or Assembly, 13 A.

D. as the regular Republican candidate for nomination to Congress in the September primaries. Others considered for the nomination were James Weldon Johnson, the Rev. Dr. A. Clayton Powell, pastor of Abyssinian Baptist Church and the Rev. William P. Hayes, pastor of Mt. Olivet Baptist Church. Dr. Powell declined to permit consideration of his name, and the committee had little trouble in designating Alderman Hawkins as the standard bearer. maker of 110 Morningside drive was named for the Assembly nomination from the 13th A. D. The delegates to the Republican State Convention from the 13th A. D. are Valentine J. Hahn, Nicholas Murray Butler, John R. Davies, Sarah Schuyler Butler and Christina Maura. Alternates are William H. Millholland, Fred R. Moore Edward A. Ryand, Clara Weed and Kathryn Wilson. This action by the party leaders is taken to indicate recognition of the lack of representation accorded the Negro wing of the parties in the past. The insistent demand for a fuller recognition, which is to indicate in leadership in Assembly Districts in which Negro District is dominant, is believed to be so responsible for the meaning of Mr. Hawkins to make the race for Congress which seat is now held by a Democrat, Royal H. Weller. Grenihal Is Perturbed. It is currently reported that Abraham Grenthal, Refublican Committeeman and leader in the 19th A. D. is considerably perturbed at attitude o the race with regard to criticisms which have been levelled at his conduct of party affairs. As an evidence of their disapproval, it is alleged that some of the district captains and queried them as vb captains have not been willing to take out the nominating petition, and they are showing their displeasure in other ways as well. It is said that Leader Grenthal, in an autocratic and overbearing manner, took accession to give the woman associate leader a severe calling down, and that the associate leader and her friends became so threatened that the reaction was so threatening it was that found it necessary to make an abject apology, and to beg his worker to overlook the offense. He pleaded that there is much work to be done, and that all must get together for good of the party. He is not credited with saying that he knows he is not wanted by a large body of voters, but they also assert that he is determined to stick to his office and fight it out, even if it means loss to the party. It is further reported that he can in indifference and anger quenched them as to their stand on the question of race leadership. Denies Giving Orders To some of these workers, according to the report, Grenhal denied that he had given orders during the last campaign for cutting of the ballot in the election districts in the majority in favor of the white Democratic candidate and against the Negro Republican. To others, it is reported he denied that such orders were not given. He had found on that Mr. Moore had given orders to cut the ballot. Grenhal now has no orders when Grenhal and Moore were together all during the election day period. Nor could it be explained how Grenhal could enter denial of being responsible for these orders after he had told Col. Charles W. Moore that such orders had been issued. Following this admission of Grenhal to Fillmore, Alderman Feeder R. Moore filed formal charges with the County chairman, Samuel S. Koenig, asking a thorough investigation of the alleged orders by Grenhal to the county board, and send a formal acknowledgment, nothing has been heard to date by Mr. Moore as to the result of this request. Burke Named For Senate. In reference to the naming of a colored man as candidate for the State Senate, Grenhal, it is alleged, expressed himself as favoring the naming of Attorney Myles Paige, who had not happen ever as Maurice A. Bibb of 599 Hall 125th street was designated as candidate for the nomination as State Senator from the 19th Senatorial District, and George B. Schoenb CENTS IN TEN CENTS IN U. E.A.

Ministers Express Views Ministers of Harlem are living themselves up with The Age in its fight for a greater racial recognition in ranks of the Republican party. Strong expressions are being made on this subject, a number of which have already been printed in the columns of this paper. The Rev. Dr. A. Clayton Powell, most influential Baptist Church, one of the leading Protestant and most imminent Baptist congregations in the United States, declares that it is a reflection upon the ability and courage of colored men and women to permit themselves to be led by white men. The Rev. D. Ward Nichols, pastor of Emamel A. M. E. Church, a growing and active group, lately moved upward, prophesies that our race will be fixed for some time to come. Both statements are given in full below. From Rev. Dr. POWELL Editor of The New York Age. I am in complete sympathy with the Age in Hight for Negro leadership in Harlem. I have just returned from a 2,300-mile trip through the South. In every town where I stopped Negro leadership was asserting itself. It was my privilege to deliver eight lectures at Fisk University, where I met teachers, preachers and physicians, and I found not only a determination among them, but I found many men and women highly qualified to lead. Harlem is the largest Negro center in the world, and it is a great reflection upon the ability and the courage of colored men and women to permit themselves to be led by white men. White men, some colored men, yet for Negro leadership. Please tell us when it will be fine. Leaders are produced in three ways—firstly, by education; secondly, by observation; and thirdly, by experience. Hundreds Are Qualified There are hundreds of Negro most and women in Harlem, who are, qualified by education, and thousands who have observed the leadership of white men since Negro began to come into Harlem. It is time now that Negro should take the leadership of leadership. The next best way to become a leader is to learn and to use have knowledge in Harlem, though you can make a thousand dollars per year discussing the sending of a colored man to Congress. We will send one out until even colored district in Harlem is colored a man. It will take a united colored vote to elect a colored man to Congress, and we cannot unite under the present white leadership. And it is of even more vital importance that the race, with a majority in the district's vote, be State Legislature in both houses, and this must be delivered of at the present time. This we must contend for with all the power we possess. (Signed) A. CLAYTON POWELL From Rev. Mr. NICHOLS. Editor of The New York Age: In the peculiar condition that now confronts the Negroes in Harlem there is nothing of more importance than unity of action. Upon the steps that we take in the coming campaign, the status of the race will be fixed for some time to come. The question of greatest importance is whether or not we are to No Race Approach For Unorganized Negro Workers, Declares President Of Dining Car Employees To Tutors Institute, W. Va.—"There absolutely is no race approach to organized labor for unorganized Negro workers—not even the only all-Negro Pullman porter group," declared Rienzi B. Lemus, president, Brotherhood of Dining Car Employes, in an address to the commerce-industry section, National Association of Teachers in Colored Schools here July 26. Mr. Lemus assigned subject was 'Trades-Unionism and the Negro' President John W. Davis, of West Virginia, Collegiate Institute, is chairman of the section, and President Russell, of Kentucky State College, presided. "Every union has organized its itself against greatest resistance and without outside assistance," Lemus said. "For," he continued, "just as all working men should seek their craft commonality in union, all employers black and white, axiomatically find a common level when it comes to increasing the wages of their employees." Believe In Union. "Sure," the speaker said, "Negro business men believe in the organizations of Negro unions on a racial basis and because of race commonality—until an American Federation of Labor organizer appears in these Negro men's plants to organize their black workers. Then, naturally, they resist an increase in wages of from 20 to 100 per cent, which adds neither to output nor efficiency, as output leaders have hit him made it known that efficiency hits solely in management—that their duty is to get the most pay for the least work for their members." ```markdown ``` Entitled To Wage Increase. Mr. Lemus stated the porters are entitled to wage increase, but only a porter's union can accomplish it and none but porters, can organize a union. He said that a labor union is not an ecmysolaryn institution, and never outside financial assistance units, and unless in a strike that its funds are exhausted and the members and their families desist. Such conditions obtained in the American Federation of Labor's United Mineworkers case, in the Pennsylvania coalfields last winter, on which occasion the Federal Council of Churches of Christ moved to partly assist the solely wives and minor children of the Federation's striking mineworkers. "A labor union," Mr. Lemus said, "simply is a grouping which collectively places the workers on a contractual basis. The reason why organized managers so bitterly oppose it. And certainly managers don't beg for outside assistance, at least not while the workers are at work. A worker who is not organized is unworthy of it, and moreover never will achieve it." A Startling. Declaration. The dining-car men's chiefian startled his hearers with the declaration that there is not a single obligation of union formation which theat to be organized are unable to meet financially. "Since the Negro is a quite properly ubiquitous American," said Lemus, "he will be found everywhere Americans are found; hence, also in the trades unions, as well Don't Forget!!! On Your Vacation HAVE The New York Age FOLLOW YOU 1 month ..... 25c 2 months ..... 50c 3 months ..... 75c Send all orders with check or money order to Subscription Department THE NEW YORK AGE 230 West 135th Street New York, N. Y. as out of them. Like white workers, there are groups of Negroes who are better off within the unions, and others better off within the unions, and others better off without. On the whole, because of more 'ism' than 'union' in American trades-unionism, the Negro worker is better off than the union. Besides this 'ism' has arrested the progress of the labor movement such an alarming degree that until and unless there is a romance of the movement, it affords, nor can accord, no panacea for their ill which contrain unorganized workers-white or black! The labor movement and the Negro seem to be going in opposite directions, for the Negro movement-optimistic labor college A B's and pessimistic statisticians notwithstanding. Mr. Lemus said the independent labor unions are almost as innumerable as the Negro is ubiquitous, the most nearly idealistic of which is the New York Garment Workers-Needle Trades grouping, "too recently in the trawk of enterprise life of the lifelong school of the New York East Side to be concerned with racial and creedal distinctions." A Paradoxical Position. The speaker defined the American Federation of Labor's position in respect of the Negro worker as paradoxical. "The Federation of Labor, he said, is not a big union, but a small company holding company for many independent craft unions called Internationales—each of which does about as it pleases, particularly in regards to the Negro worker. The Minuteworker Contract inhibits labor and creates illiterate institutions. But the International, with jurisdiction over railroad station workers, will not admit Negro workers to white locals; it accepts all Negro locals, and there are negro segregated locals of this union—Federation of Labor affiliation." "The Seamans' Union of North America, another Federation of Labor International, takes them as they come; the Longshoremen's International has segregated Negro locals and has a Negro International vice president. Hence the Federation of Labor paradoxes. The Negro group is an arbitrary group which organizes itself—and pays the charter fee—only to stick it wherever possible, however incongruous the assignment. "And forasmuch as the Federation of Labor policy ever has been to rely on the poetically destructive strike power to enforce its demands, the individual Unions and workers have been misled to thus believe that the Court has removed now that the Courts have removed by injunction the strike's ating, the American Federation of Labor virtually is powerless." A Sorry Spectacle. Mr. Lemus said this is established beyond doubt or per adventure by the present sorry spectacle of the United Mineworkers permitting the districts to beg the mine operator to wage reductions from the scales effected by the Jacksonville agreement of 1925—offer the failure of the destination-creating strike in the bituminous coal fields of the so-called Central Competitive Region to maintain the uneconomic pay rates of the rail brotherhoods, which, by the way, are not in any respect affiliated to the Federation of Labor, never would have failed to apprehend such a denouement, would have, here, rushed a grand bluff to await a more convenient season for action." Lemus declared. According to Lemus, Robert, L. Mays of Chicago is the foremost Negro labor representative, insofar as ability and experience and competency go. He failed as an orator tried to organize a Federation of Negro rail labor instead of organizing the units one at a time Lemus says Mays is staging a comeback backed by one of the organizations of colored firemen, for which Mays made the original contract back in 1921. Breaking of colored firemen; Mr Lemus said there are 6,500 of them on Southern and Southwestern Railroads; and that until and unless the white Firemen's Brotherhood (Big Four) President D. B. Robertson takes the lead in removing the constitutional inhibition against Negro firemen, and takes the lead in ensuring that he will therefore to believe President Robertson is as sincere as A. Phillip Randolph would have us to believe. A Picturesque Labor Chief. "I cannot see Robertson's interest in the unionization of 11,000 unskilled Pullman porters while still forcing restrictive agreements on 6,558 skilled colored firemen on the Southern rail lines." Lemus shouted. The most picturesque colored chief, Lemus thinks, is Young. Grange of the Seamans' Union. Mr. Grange is Head of the "group of stewards" department employees which he organized on the North Atlantic coast. This employment is "closed shop" must be a union man to remain at work). Recently Grange has been twice to Europe to visit the United States to deal with all nations employed on Mediterranean and the Indies lines out of British ports. Another, and the dean, of Negro labor leaders is John H. Elliard of Memphis, Tenn., president of the union of switchmen, brakemen, yardmen, train-porters, etc., which holds contracts governing wages and rules on the Illinois Central, and other southern lines. Then, the other "still" who organized the union of switchmen, southern lines out of Washington, Hillill got and keeps the 240-hour month for his members, and even for those who won't join. "Our union, the Brotherhood of Dining Car Employees, stands a concrete example of the indirect benefits of trades-unionism. We got the 240-hour-month for all dining car men-black and white—from the road Administration and the service team by the precearance before the late Labor Board, despite the fact that not one-third of them belong to our union.

Who should there be a white leader, who thinks only of himself? Have we no colored men upon whom we may depend? I am unwilling to believe that the Negroes of this district will longer submit to this kind of business, if we are defiled in the best because we were of the conditions. The type of white leader that we now have was plainly seen in the last election, when he proved his love for his Negro constituents by doing all in his power to defeat the Negro Respondent for Alderman. His orders were, disheveled then and now, to defeat Negro will obey them in the future. I am one of those who believe that the church should play its part in helping men and women to better their conditions here. I am a leader of the life to come, and it is my purpose to enter actively in this righteous fight to place Negro leaders in control of the Nineteenth Assembly Dharmakarana, a national institution in the State Legislature, of which we are now deprived.

C.—And new, the Mutual Building and Long Association is making its bow. Durham, North Carolina, is a city of large and successful business enterprises. There is the story of the solid, conservative growth of the North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Company, a $3,000,000 concern, and its service to a host of policy holders, its employment of hundreds of agents and clerks, and its use of trained medical examiners. There is the safely managed and progressive Mechanics and Farmers Bank with capital approaching $1,000,000; The bankers Fire Insurance Company, largest paid instock business of the race, underwriting fire risks of real and personal property; the Southern Fidelity and Surety Company, Royal Knights of King David, and the People's Building and Loan Association, with their several records of accumulated assets, efficient management, and, primarily, large and helpful service to the race But little has been said of the romantic rise of a thrift-encouraging and home-owning aiding institution, the Mutual Building and Loan Association. A letter from the firm of Goodno & Steele, certified public accountants, reported some pretty nice things about the Association. It said in part: "The average earning rate is a fraction over 10 per cent, which is indeed commendable for the management. The association has grown to over $300,000 over a period of seven years." The Mutual Building and Loan Association started just seven years ago, February 1, 1921, with a half dozen investors and not much more than $300. Another outstanding observation is that out of $307,357.07 in resources, $291,480 has been loaned on Negro real estate This business, amounting to nearly a third of a million dollars in assets, is operated by two active officials, Frank L. McCoy, secretary, and Miss Ruth Bolden, clerk. The officers are C. Spandina and D. Clyde Dooley. H. Wilson and J. A Love, vicepresidents, C M Palmer, assistant secretary; and R. L. McDougald, treasurer. The beginning of the association goes back to the lifetime of Dr Aaron McDuffie Moore, who said to that small company which had assembled to help the group on financially "Go ahead; I will see you through the early trials of the organization." And he did F. I. McCoy, secretary from the beginning, is a man with experience born of many services in the field of business. He did important work for the Southern Aid Society of Richmond, Va., for twelve years, and for the North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Company, where he filled responsible field positions, eight years. The secretary reports that the number of shareholders now is 415 and the average size of the loans $1500. R L McDougald, vice-president and cashier of the Mechanics and Farmers Bank of Durham and Releigh, N. C., conceived the plan of this institution.

Claimed By Savannnah Church This claim has always been disputed by the First African Baptist Church of Savannah, Ga, known to have been organized in 1788, ten years later, but which, years ago under the pastorate of the late Rev Dr Emanuel K. Love, established what it claimed to be undisputed priority in the matter of church seniority. This claim was tentatively accepted as it was not possible for the Augusta congregation to go back further than the osten- sible date of its establishment in Augusta. The findings of the Census Bureau, which have been made from data gathered by a corps of clerks and special agents working under supervision of Robert A. Pelham, for more than a quarter century employed in the Bureau of the Census at Washington, one of the most competent Negro statisticians in the country; would seem to settle the question of the oldest Negro Baptist Church as between the Augusta and Savannah congregations. Another interesting development arising from the disclosures made by Mr. Pelham's findings is that this is the Negro Baptists' Sesqui Centennial Year, but there is little likelihood of its being properly celebrated, as the 'information' now disclosed by the Census Bureau bulletin comoh to late for any effective observance of the 250th anniversary of the organization of distinctive Negro Baptist Churches in America. First Eastern Church. It is further shown that in 1805 the Joy Street Baptist Church, the first in New England, was organized in Boston; and in the succeeding years came the Abyssinian Church in New York City and the First African Baptist Church in Philadelphia. About 1840 the Nineteenth Street Baptist Church of Washington became a 'distinctive race organization. The success of these societies, as distinctive Negro Baptist Churches, whose members, officers and pastors were of the race, gave inspiration and confidence to many others, and the number of such churches have multiplied in all sections of the country. The lack of a general ecclesiastical organization makes it extremely difficult to gather with absolute accuracy the statistics of Baptist churches. It is true that their churches unite in associations along state and sectional lines, but their gatherings or connections, whether quarterly, annual, or otherwise, are consultative and advisory, and not authoritative or compulsory. Move To New England. The migration of the Negro from the South northward, which was revealed by the population Census figures for 1920, is still is still more strikingly illustrated by a study of the growth of this denomination's churches and membership in the states, from Massachusetts, Rhode Island and Connecticut on the east, to California on the west, and a comparison of this growth with the losses in Mississippi, Arkansas, and other southern states. PAGE THREE In 1916 these three New England states reported five churches with 1504 members; while in 1926 the number had grown to 59 churches with 12,535 members, a growth of 54 churches, and 11,031 members. In 1916 Mississippi and Arkansas reported, 3,999 churches, with 461,953 and in 1926, 3,689 churches and 361,709 members, a loss of 310 churches and 100,244 members in the decade.

SEEKING A.CAMPAIGN ISSUE. In its quest for a campaign issue, that might be used to prevent Negro voters from supporting Secretary Hoover for the Presidency, the New York World hit upon the rubber concession granted by the Republic of Liberia to the Firestone Rubber Company of Ohio. This concession is declared to have been forced upon Liberia in the interest of American capital, backed by Secretary Hoover. A report made by Raymond Buell, former professor of history at Harvard University, is quoted as authority for the statement that the policy of the rubber interests is to establish a plantation system of "forced labor," similar to slavery in the Southern states, for the economic exploitation of the natives. This story is on a par with an article taken from the London Truth and reproduced in the Gold Coast Times of Cape Coast, West Africa, in which similar charges, made on Mr. Buell's authority, were published last April. In this article the Firestone concession was made to result in the confiscation of native lands and the institution of compulsory labor. The Liberian government was already said to have established a labor bureau which furnished Mr. Firestone with laborers "at a cent a man per day." The publication of this story in English and West African papers is plainly seen to be dictated by the British rubber interests, which would be badly hit if the firestone experiment turns out to be a success. As to the criticism of the Liberian government for entering into the agreement with the American capitalists, including the loan of five million dollars for internal improvements, those familiar with the situation are inclined to credit them with political sagacity and foresight in making the contract they did. Liberia has been enforced for several decades by the progressive encroachments of the British and the French upon her western boundaries. European capital was seeking to control the development of the country's resources and eventually to dominate its government. In this emergency, its officials decided to invite the entrance of American capital and thus secure the moral support of the United States against further European aggression. This may have been Hobson's choice, in view of the devious devices practiced by American capital in Haiti, but at least gave Liberia its own choice of exploits. As to the administration of the span by an American financial adviser, and the selection of a collector of customs by American interests, that is the way that capital has of protecting itself, the difference between the Liberian situation and the Haitian occupation, is that the Liberians invited American interests undertake the development of their country as the only alternative to European exploitation. The World is simply using the complaints of the disappointed British exploiters as material for a campaign issue. The World can find plenty of "forced labor" conditions in this country, in the form of peonage in the South, without going to Liberia, to make that a campaign issue.

DEMOCRATIC PRIMARIES The New York Daily News, which is one of the many metropolitan papers that call for a modification of the Volstead act, is the following to say about "Texas octaccles:" "Federal district court judge upheld the 'white man's primary' in Texas, where a Democratic nomination is equivalent to election. This is one of the states where so much to do is used over eastern nullification of the eighteenth amendment." And yet the Memphis Evening Appeal, leading Democratic daily, devoted two pages to what was apparently an adver- The New York Daily News, which is one of the many metropolitan papers that call for a modification of the Volstead act, has the following to say about "Texas Spectacles." "Federal district court judges have upheld the 'white man's primary' in Texas, where a Democratic nomination is equivalent to election. This is one of the states where so much to-do is raised over eastern nullification of the eighteenth amendment." And yet the Memphis Evening Appeal, a leading Democratic daily, devoted two pages to what was apparently an advertisement signed by Clarence Saunders, appealing to the voters of Shelby, county to prevent the casting of Negro votes in a Democratic primary. We reproduce a part of the pronouncement as follows: elections that no color line is drawn in a Democratic primary—so far does it go that ignorant Negroes have their poll taxes paid by the Bob Church-Crump gang and these Negroes invited and taken in, autonobiles to the voting precincts and instructed to vote in a Democratic primary. The 'inw says that only "known democrat" a voter is eligible to vote in the Negro a known democrat? He is not. But what does the Bob Church-Crump gang care about upholding the law when it suits its purpose to violate it? Evidently Mr. Saunders is at odds with the faction of his party which proposes to vote Negroes in a Democratic primary and has no hope of profiting by such notes. But if we are to believe Mr. Saunders, this practice is not unknown to the voters of Memphis, for he asks: "Will the white men and the white women of Memphis sanction again the unlawful ways of the Bob Church-Crump gang by voting with the Negroes, side by side, in a democratic primary?" Mr. Saunders would be more at home in Texas, where his protest against Negroes voting in a Democratic primary would doubtless receive sympathetic attention. That is another item to add to the score of Southern Democratic inconsistencies.

The attempts of a large portion of the daily metropolitan press to magnify the excitement growing out of a recent Sunday evening disturbance of the peace in The attempts of a large portion of the daily metropolitan press to magnify the excitement growing out of a recent Sunday evening disturbance of the peace in Harlem, is indicative of the disposition to give Harlem a bad name upon the slightest provocation. The trouble all grew out of the unruly actions of a trio of boisterous rounders, who had been absorbing extra potitions of Harlem gin, or other deleterious compounds. In their pursuit of further diversion, they were alleged to have broken into an apartment in search of an acquaintance and to have beaten up a woman, who lived there. The screams of the victim brought a policeman to the rescue, who tried to arrest the intruders. When the policeman sought to arrest the most active of the fleeing trio, he received a kick which sent him to the ground when his assailant jumped upon him. The usual crowd, attracted by any disturbance in such a locality as Lenox avenue and 139th street, gathered around. Some of them thinking it was another case of police brutality tried to assist the prisoner. Three, other officers quickly, appeared, one of them being a Negro who was off duty but who joined in the effort to preserve the peace and assist the first officer who was badly hurt from the kick he had received. There were no guns used either by the police or the crowd, the former only drawing their clubs in effort to disperse the crowd. The reports in the daily papers telling of thousands of Negroes rioting were vastly overdrawn, as most of the crowds were drawn by curiosity and took no part in the demonstration against the officers. The crowds finally got so great that the emergency squad and fire trucks were called out to aid in their dispersion, but not a rifle or machine gun was fired nor did the reserves use their weapons. The only pistol shot fired during the entire disturbance was by some one from the roof of one of the buildings in the vicinity, whose identity could not be discovered. Now, the interference with the police was wholly unwarranted, based as it was on a misunderstanding of the situation and the cause for the arrest. There is no charge of any brutality by the policeman making the arrest, or on the part of those who came to his rescue and kept off the crowd. In fact they are to be commended for the moderation they exercised in handling the crowd and not resorting to the use of clubs or revolvers. This would indicate that they correctly gauged the temper of the spectators to be based more on curiosity than on a disposition to interfere with the police. The assumption of the Evening Journal, that the disturbance was promoted by the radical element among the race if Harlem, is so absurd as to be entirely without reason. The attempts of the other papers to manufacture a race riot out of this Sunday evening disturbance that drew the crowds, of unoccupied people taking the air at that time, are perhaps not all maliciously conceived, but due to the need of having a local sensation to vary the dull monotony of the Monday record of motor casualties. It is easy enough to advise people to avoid crowds on Lenox avenue, or any other avenue for that matter, but there is something in human nature that sends the average mortal to the thick of the crowd to find out what's the matter. Then, it is not always safe to conclude that the police are invariably in the wrong, and that the fellow resisting arrest is the victim of police brutality. In most cases the prisoner has either been caught in the commission, or attempt, of some crime, and the police are guarding the public by putting him under arrest. At all events that is a matter for the courts to decide and the good citizen should rather support the officers of the law than attempt Company which has proved refuge in time of need. LIVING PROGRAM FOR ELKS. The approaching convention of the Independent Order of Elks, to be held this month at Chicago, suggests the necessity for the adoption of a living program for the occasion; commensurate with the opportunities and powers of the organization. The rapid and substantial growth of the order within the past few years has placed it in the front rank of fraternal organizations in the point of numbers and finances. It has also proved itself open to the adoption of new ideas and progressive policies. This absence of hidebound conservatism, together with the reputation of its members as good spenders, has tended to add to its popularity as a social and driving force in the various communities where it has extended. It is still maintained by thinking members of the order that too much of its resources are wasted in unproductive activities, such as parades and bands of music, and the vast sum involved in railroad fares in holding its annual conventions. On the other hand, it is contended that the expenditures for these purposes are to be regarded as good advertising, resulting in spreading the knowledge of the order and in extending its member- THE AGE READERS' FORUM Dr. Carter Tells Of His Stay In Paris and Leeds From Rev. E. R. CARTER Pastor Friendship Baptist Church, Atlanta, Ga. Editor of The New York Age: I am sending this letter to tell Dr. Dr. and Mrs. A. D. Junes and myself (all of Atlanta, Ga.) made our voyage across the ocean on one of the statelist and swiftest vessels allot. Landing at Cherbourg on June 12, we had a special tourism trip, locating at the field looderine. Paris is a beautiful city with many things of interest to offer travelers—Napoleon's Tomb in the Invalides; the Arch of Trompe; the Louvre and adjacent gardens; the Tulleries, the Sorbonne, the Place de la Concorde and the Champs-lysées. Paris express habits of the Parisians; "Dress Fine" and "Drink Wine." France may be poor, but the poverty is not obvious from appearance of the people. Everybody in the streets are beautifully dressed, and in spite of the war, they did not see half a dozen crippled people or old men. The French are courteous but inclined to be impatient with people who can not speak French. We have had lots of them. We also have no speech to speak no French and expected all Frenchmen to speak English. After six days in Paris, Dr. and High Prices Are Often Imaginary By BETTY BARCLAY With all the talk of Indianization the average woman fails to sapi- cate the fact that many foods looked up at certain seasons as ex- pensive, are really reasonable in price and sometimes actually cheap. Price is only relatable, and we should remember this when we tire up and realize that we need to fly off on a tangent and come home without some of the things we need, bringing in their place certain foods that we are present eating too freely. Let us take oranges and the present time to prove our point. This fruit is selling today at a price that many women look upon as rather high. Probably here and there a woman is buying in smaller quantities or not at all, and we are down to last year's level. Is she acting wisely or even intelligently when she takes this stand? Five cents for an orange may appear high to the woman who purchased oranges last year for thirty or forty cents a dozen. But how about figuring upon size before deciding that the price is too high. We do not hesitate to pay five cents for an orange, but we do not steak or walnut meat—and we are so accustomed to paying from sixty cents to a dollar a pound for such foods that we hardly think of the price. Place an orange beside five cents worth of porterhouse steak, or five cents' worth of many of our other staples, and we will see that even at sixty cents a dozen, oranges are not particularly high. Or figure this so-called high price of ours by the pound. Oranges sell well by the pound, and we average about three to the pound—bringing our price per pound to fifteen cents. This is interesting, isn't it? Here we have paid sixty cents a pound for butter when it was not particularly plentiful, every year since we first started to market—and we rarely complained. We pay forty, fifty, sixty or even seventy cents a pound for meat—and still we keep comparatively quiet. But when we are paying fifteen cents a pound for THE NEW YORK AGE to hinder their action. It is not well for any community to cultivate the sentiment of being "again the police." As for the majority of the daily press, if a riot is needed in Harlem to fill out the quota of local news, there are enough bright young men on the staff to furnish the details and headlines, with narness and dispatch, whether the facts warrant them or not. The reading public must be served, regardless of whether it is truth or fiction given it to swallow. The danger with this kind of journalism is that it may have the effect of making more possible the evil that it seeks to anticipate. Great is the power of suggestion. IGNORANT TRAIN CONDUCTORS The experience of J. Finley Wilson, grand exalted ruler of the Elks, in resisting the attempt of an Illinois Central train conductor, to deprive him of the Pullman accommodations which he had purchased in St. Louis, upon the passage of the train into Kentucky, emphasizes the inconvenience and injustice to which colored passengers are often subjected on going, South, even after they have paid first class passage. This conductor awakened Mr. Wilson to demand that he leave his berth to go into the jimcrow car ahead, after the train had left Cairo, Ill. When Mr. Wilson refused, this conductor threatened him with the mob, that would take him from the Pullman by force across the Kentucky ling. Mr. Wilson refused to be bluffed and sought to expound the difference between interstate passengers and intrastate passengers, he being in the former class and not subject to the state laws separating the races. This was all Greek to the ignorant train conductor, who evidently came from the element of Southern crackers, as he stoutly maintained: "Tis gin the law for niggahs to be 'in sleepin' cars when we gits in Kentucky." Nevertheless he finally left the head of the Elks in peace for the remainder of the night. Arrived at Memphis in the morning, the conductor had seen a different light. Not only did he notify Mr. Wilson that he could arrange his toilet in the Pullman, but he besought his passenger to go easy on him for his conduct of the previous night. Evidently this benighted train conductor had received some enlightenment as to the rights of interstate passengers on Pullman, cars, either from the conductor of the Pullman or some other source. The attitude of the Pullman agents and conductors in selling and according first class accommodations to colored passengers, is as a rule, all that can be desired. They endeavor to carry out without friction the declared policy of the Pullman Company giving equal accommodation to all travelers, regardless of race or color. This policy has done much to rob travel in the South of its terrors and inconveniences for decent and respectable members of the race. But Pullman accommodations are not available for travelers within the state where jim crow car laws prevail. The state law governs intrastate commerce and prevents the sale of Pullman tickets to passengers from one point to another within the state. Local sentiment also plays a large part in rendering it easy or difficult to secure Pullman accommodations from certain*points in the South. Next to lynching and disfranchisement, the enormity of the jim crow car laws is the crowning evil of the South. It is the means of publicly humiliating and stamping as an inferior being the cultured and educated Negro, by denying him the means of traveling in decent surroundings and reducing him to the level of the field hand. Even a domestic servant can travel in a first class car with her employer, while a colored college professor or a banker is relegated to the jim crow car. Hence the great use of motor cars by Southern Negroes as a substitute for travel by rail or street cars. This is bad for the transportation business, but the South must pay for indulging its prejudices as to race and color. The cost of maintaining separate cars must add largely to transportation costs, although the exaction of a first class fare from colored travelers for inferior accommodations, is a case of taking money under false pretences. The responsibility for the continued existence of the jim crow car laws lies at the door of the Republican administration, which put in office and controls the Interstate Commerce Commission. This body, which has the power to regulate and control interstate commerce, has invariably refused on technical points to interfere with the discrimination practiced in rates and accommodations by Southern railroads. It has allowed the ignorant cracker conductors on such roads to defy the laws governing interstate commerce and to interpret them as they saw fit. The only power that has acted in good faith to ameliorate the asperities of travel for Negroes in the Southland is the Pullman ship. Be this as it may, the more conservative members argue that the same ends could be served by making the conventions biennial instead of annual affairs. The grand exalted ruler, the head of the order, should be limited to two terms of two years each, which would allow him ample opportunity to try out his policies and determine their value to the order. It would also give to other deserving members of the order an opportunity to reach the high office and add their quota of ability to the efficient administration of affairs. The national treasury, as well as the individual treasuries of the subordinate lodges, would profit by omitting the holding of a national meeting every other year. The efforts of the grand lodge to do something for the promotion of the cause of education and in the improvement of healthful living, have not been without substantial benefit and are subjects which justify the expenditures made for that purpose. In addition to these matters, it is felt that the order might well lend its moral encouragement to the promotion of a greater business development among the race group. How this can best be accomplished can perhaps be figured out by those members who have made good in their individual capacities in the business world. Mrs. Jones left for a grand tour of the Continent, to Switzerland, Italy Germany, Austria and Czechoslovakia. But I turned my face towards Leeds, by way of The Hague, where my old dear friend had lived and died. I found the warmest welcome from every member of the Kirby family, who have been invited to have been crowded with invitations to garden parties, fetes, etc. At one of these parties I had a pleasant chat with Lord Halfax, leader of the High Church Party, and father of the Viceroy of India. I am under obligations to Rev. J. Miller Hamilton and John Kirby for one of the hospitality extended me. I attended a garden party at the home of Princess Mary, daughter of the King of England, in company with Mrs. Kirby, Mrs. Kaye and friends. Those folks in Atlanta who meet Preslyl Kaye at the old folk's picnic would be surprised to see how he was devastated into manhood, Mr. Ruffalo Kaye, and memories of Friendship Baptist Church and its people and of Atlanta and the States. On Sunday, July 15, I preached at Salendine Nook Baptist Church, where I met a Yorkshire, through arrangements made by another old friend, Cameron E. Smith, who has, as always, given me cloth from his mills for a suit of clothes. shortly we will be again with our friends in America and Atlanta. oranges we begin to shout "expensive." Price is merely relative. Instead of paying a high price for oranges today, we are really paying a price that is a little higher than a very much heavier and the demand not so great. No! There is no argument by bringing up the fact that sixty cent meat is natural because it comes from the middle west and it takes a steer a long time to go from calfdom to beefdom. Your breakfast package from California from a tree that had been growing for years before the steer's mother was born. We merely get into a rut by comparing prices when they are high with prices when they are low, and not realizing that climate, crop, rainfall, packing, selection of quality of the meat, other things enter into the high price that may prevail at a certain time. To a great extent we should forge price and think more of health. The minute we do this we will be able to save enough of foods that we are now eating too heavily, to purchase all we need of the foods that should eat more than we now do. Most of us eat too heavily of carbohydrate and protein foods that have an acid reaction in the stomach, and not heavily enough of fresh fruits and green vegetables—particularly the leaf vegetable. See to it therefore that expensive carbohydrate, less quantity—and with the money saved you can purchase more liberally of the desirable balancing foods, even though they may be selling at a little higher figure than they were a month or a year ago. See to it that you eat heavily of green vegetables and fresh fruits of all kinds. Drink milk if you like it. Eat fruit if you like it. Help to reduce the acidity of your body—for strange as it may seem, lemons like oranges have a decided alkaline effect when taken into the system. Drink plenty of pure cold COMMENTS BY THE AGE EDITORS The Florida Sentinel of Jacksonville announced the retirement of its founder and former editor, in the following editorial: Mr. M. M. Lewey, founder of the Florida Sentinel, retired July sixth from active service with the Sentinel on its forty-third birthday. In his eighty-fifth year he is still vigorous and, energetic, ready and eager to help to advance his brain child to its most usefulness. He has consented to give Sentinel readers the story of early Florida. He begins his history with his brain child. Mr. Lewey has served his race in Florida, indeed all men within his power for fifty years. With the Sentinel he has worked in various capacities for nearly forty. He has seen the paper grow from a small sheet with its eighty-page paper, employing filigree and organization. But for his idea the Sentinel probably would not be. He still sits at his old desk to counsel the younger men who seek to carry on where he and others so nobly led. In actual service he may have retired, but in spirit he shall always live in the hearts and minds of those who admire his work and honor his brain child. Mr. Lewey is one of the pioneers of Negro journalism, he having started the publication of the *Sentinel* in Gainesville in 1887. His reminiscences of Florida should make interesting reading. Urging the mobilizing of the electorate as a preliminary to the election in November, the St. Luke Herold of Richmond aptly said that loud talking and spasmatic verbage will not be sufficient. It added: Registration is a big consideration in many States of the Union. There are different measures of qualification used in many of the States of the Union. The voters must give these qualifications their due consideration. If it is the payment of poll taxes for three consecutive years as it is in Virginia, let us hunt up the tax collector and square the account with him in time for the election day in November. This should be done at a great sacrifice. Of course we need the purpose of the election we should learn that many would be spent better than that which admits one to vote. The time is rapidly passing for the pre-election preparations. The cake will be all dough if we do not get about that business at once. We should get at it we already about the time we should be busy at the dull duties of registration and qualifying for the balloting in November. That 15 is the practical way of looking at this business of voting for President. If the exercise of the franchise is worth while, it requires the sacrifice of time and money needed to register and vote. Discussing the element of distrust which entrers into the question of racial leadership the Louisville News pertinently said: The leadership among Negroes is not perfect; there is much room for improvement, but after all the trist and best leadership the Negro mass has is the black man or woman who has risen to some commanding place in the community through wide intelligence and determination, coupled with ceaseless efforts, strenuous living and great self-sacrifice. It is a race ignorance we hate to admit, which looks upon the black leader of every movement with suspicions and regards 'him as crooked and selfish to the greatest degree, if he has any ambitions of his own, or feels that some honor or recognition is due to him, the leader of other races for the program he puts over and the good he might do for the whole, as a leader of a few. And yet, whatever progress the race as a whole has made has come through the leadership within the group, and it is the suspicious Negro mass which has been the greater beneficiary. Opportunities and honorable positions in business, more schools better facilities, and higher teaching salaries for members of the race who come up from the masses, have come about through the activities of their own Readers. The same is true of the communities where water. Eat salad. fruit cups, light desserts. Sleep. Exercise. Do these things and you need not worry about the high price of some special fruit or vegetable. You will not worry about the price of overtime your use of the food that improves your health. If you don't, you'll surely save more than enough by the elimination of doctor's bills. Food is expensive when you do not buy it. You will eat it too heavily. Don't worry much about the price you pay. One food, low in price, may be very expensive if it causes internal trouble. Expensive oranges are cheap if they counteract the acidity of the body. The acidity of life is vital and women should remember this when they shop. A delicious milk drink can be made either by dissolving the junket powder in cold milk and serving immediately, or by making junket in any flavor: Vanilla Chocolate Lemon Orange Raspberry Coffee with skimmed milk, adding junket powder in one-half the required amount of tussar warm milk in regular directions. Let set until form, then chill. Beat with an egg beater until smooth, and mix with equal quantity of cold milk. Junket Milk Shake Saturday, August 4, 1924 we have Negro police, fire departments and other places in the city municipality which Negroes are entitled to and get in, some measure, not through their own efforts, no initiative and kindness of the bosses, but through the agencies, the efforts of the very Negro leaders they have taught to distrust and hate. What is needed is greater solidarity among the race and a larger degree of confidence in those leaders whose ability and integrity have been proved by results. Let those lead who have found the way to do things and get things done for the general good. Talking about your vacation. Dr. Dennis A. Bethes, health editor of the Gary American, gives the following points to intending vacationists: Some folks hate to go away because they get too honeysick. Some men would rather be burgled at the stake than to stay away from their wives a single night. But in most cases the husband should go to one place and the wife to another. Some men can never realize what a prince of the world he has been away for her several days. Nor can a man have the least idea what a sweet wife and sweetheart he has until he has gone thirsty for her kisses and caresses for a couple of weeks. But after you have finally bought you a gasoline buggy with plenty of gas and you have seen the home town fade in the distance, and you find yourself getting a little hungry; you know then that, for sure, you are off for your vacation. Of course, if you live in the city you will not go to another city, but you will be just a mile away from town, where you have had to phide and seek to keep from being run over by some speed demon. You will want to get out in the open country for a little fresh air, and to loll around on the banks of the river or hill side. On the other hand, our country cousins will be here to lose themselves among the tall and stately skyscrapers of the city. When you are away, throw away your reserve and be young again. If the order of the day is fishing, rowing, running or ball playing, just be a good sport and enter the spirit of the occasion. If you are "visiting" can be the cure for a well can, but keep your hands on your pocket book. Incidentally, Dr. Bethea recommends conventions as good places to spend a week, for the reasons that you meet many different people, he a lot of good talks and do not usually have to spend much money. In the midst of his favorite occupation of running for Governor of Ohio in the Republican primaries, Editor Harry C. Smith of the Cleveland Gazette interjected the following editorial note: Rev. Simon P. P. W. Drew, of Washington, D. C., is a candidate for Vice President, this fall on the Interstate Independent Political Party's ticket, with Gen. Jacob S. Coxyne (white) of Massillon, O. its candidate for President. This will give our voters, the country over, a chance to vote for a member of the race for Vice-President and it will be a decided relief for many who want to vote and cannot do so for either the Republican or Democratic candidates. There are many Afro-American supporters of the Al Sharif candidate who cannot vote for the Running for Governor of Arkansas, who when Governor could not find it in his heart to stop lynchings of "Negro" by his brother "crackers" of that heighted state. --- If we remember correctly this vice-presidential candidate on the Coxey ticket is no invoice in politics When the late Patrick J. Gleason was mayor of Long Island City, under the sign of the Battle Axe, Rev. Mr. Drew was one of his earliest supporters. Taking issue with a statement made by Mr. Oscar DePriest, in a recent address made in Philadelphia to the effect that the Elks are doing more for education than the churches, the Christian Recorder said: If Mr. DePriest referred to the Negro church he is wrong of the four largest denominations, the weakest has raised more than ten times as much money for education as Elks. In Negro churches there are thousands of Negro schools in the community would have no school house at all if the Negro Baptists or Methodists did not give it the use of its church building for educational purposes. This very day hundreds of young people are, looking forward to going to school next fall expecting definite financial help from their parents. Let the church take her lands off of education and in a generation the Negro would lapse into barbarism. For Fisk University, Willerger University, Morehouse, Lilladale, Atlanta, Clark, Morris University, Benedict, Kellibell, Bethlehem, Selma, Bishop, and a score of other good schools would not open next Let the church stop the agitation for education, stop ignoring the most responsibility upon derelict state and county boards of education, with spect to Negro education, and with would soon have no schools in our rural districts. Mr. DePriest will be a candidate for Congress in Chicago this Fall, so he is probably cultivating votes among the Elks. But the church people also have votes. CHURCH ACTIVITIES IN GREATER NEW YORK Grace Church of Harlem A beautiful Sunday morning brought out a goodly number of worshippers to Grace Church for the morning service. The opening prayer was paid by the pastor of Georgetown, B. G. a brother of Deacon John Perry, Rev. Mr. Perry and his wife are visiting her for several months. After the floral oering, the beautiful anthem, "Lye Hath Not Seen," was well rendered by Nelson B. Scott, tenor solos, and the choral, "The Lord Is My Shepherd," Job 23rd chapter of part 30 verse, his theme being "The Search for God!" The lesson sent home with his congregation was that so many think that they must feel the "Personal Presence" of Jesus before they can be assured of His forgiveness, "Faith" that we need in His ability to do all things. After the service Mr. and Mrs. James Hall presented their infant daughter, Betha Louise, for christening into the Congregational faith. Dr. Garner presented Dr. Hall of Betha Louise, Dr. Boston, on the invitation of Dr. Garner, made a brief address. Another exceptionally well sung anthem, "Bless is he who cometh in the name of the Lord" by William Holland, bass soloist, and choir, followed the address of Dr. Hall. The address was pronounced by Rev. Mr. Perry. During the morning service, the new "group" season was gone over carefully by Dr. Garner, and each season leader was given charge of its own "group" Spring, Int. N. Anderson; Summer, gar N. Anderson;秋季, James T. Payne, and Winter, John M. Barnwell. Assistants are Dr. F. W. Terry and Charles Evans. Don't forget Grace Church family excursion. Grace Grove, N. W. Thursday, August 9, 1928.

Miss Talented as well as charming. Remember the hour, 7 to 8 p. Sunday. Mother Zion Church "Arriving at Rome" was the subject of Dr. Brown's sermon last Sunday morning. Among other things, the preacher had, the accomplishment of a long christified purpose and the reaching of a life's purpose. From an early date in the ministry of the Apostle Paul, his heart had been fixed on visiting the Imperial City. It was a hazardous trip, with perils to the right and to the left. He comes to Rome, not as a free citizen, but a prisoner in bonds. He comes a homeless stranger, yet escorted loving friends: an evil door-bound bond, a good God, a God in his heart. He comes a victim doomed to sacrifice, yet a victorious conqueror to plant the gospel in the great citadel of heathendom. Those of you present this morning, who are on the way to Rome, can take heart and make a fresh start. If it is a lofty ambition and a righteous purpose, take fresh a courage God will aid you on your way. You can pray for the bread from Rome to meet the Paulen whom he had never seen) strengthened his heart. "So he thanked God, took courage, and pressed on." The words of the text epitomize the great events which took place in planting. Chr. stinity in Europe, like the beginning of a new imperialism when "Gaesar crossed the Rubicon." Vowel "o" is used if you would arrive at your goal. The Apostle had always wanted to preach the Gospel at Rome. He had the vision of a statesman who always recognizes strategic points. Mother Zion arrived at such a place where she would meet Him. Other churches have done the same. We not only acted wisely, but saved ourselves by not listening to those blind and faithless ones who said, "Wait," and that "it could not be done." It must us something to come it. We must pay great price. We will not pay it today. We may not pay during our lifetime, but we must continue our best. A large number of visitors were present, among them: Dr. Kirkland, pastor of the Union Baptist Church, Philadelphia, Pa.; Dr. A. Mauney, doctor of Atlanta, Pa.; Dr. P. Lal, doctor of Misses Maxine Lewis and Hester Tayler of Cairo, Ill.; Misses A. R. Summons and Edna M.

Paradise Baptist Church At eleven o'clock Sunday morning there was a large audience to hear Mother Rivers delivered the message from St. Matthew 7th chapter, 7-8 verses, "Ask and ye shall receive, seek and ye shall find; knock and it shall be open unto thee." She brought out clearly how the unjust adversed the woman of her adversary came. Just so God will hear and answer his children who keep their temples clean and garnished. The closing service for the day was conducted by Rev. E. Robertson. His discourse was taken from Isaiah 23:4, "Who is left among you that saw this house? Be ye strong, O ye Jesus, and be ye all man's friend, LORD and work; for lo: I am with you until the world shall end." In bringing out the fact more clearly of how essential it is for us to cooperate with each other, especially when working for God, he said: "That after God had given David a desire was to build a house for God, so the Lord told David through Nathan, the prophet, "Do all that is within thine heart, for I will be with thee, only that he should let Solomon his son build it as he had been much engaged in war. So Solomon built, the temple with the one planned that without David's help Solomon could not have built the temple, for David had gotten all the material for him. Therefore in like manner we should work in love together when accomplishing a task for God in order to make it a success, and when it comes it will meet His approval. Paradise Baptist Church is giving a motor picnic from New York City to Southland, L. I., August 16, St. Paul Bapt. Church The great change has taken place, St Paul after purchasing the property at 352 West 35th street in 1904, remained there, after altering the place to make it large and commodious, until last week, when its term ended Monday night saw the officers and members dismantling the old place, getting the belongings of the church ready for removal. Thursday 'these things were removed' 240-251 West 32nd street, where they will remain until the church formally moves in to worship as it new home. Temporary quarters were provided in the Negro Educational Center, 215 West 129th street, where the church held two brief services last Sunday, the pastor making short admonitions and brief services. After the morning service, the pastor and officers led the way to the new building, which is rapidly nearing completion, and for the first time most of those who went saw the beautiful and spacious office. The enthusiasm of those who knew in bounds, some suggesting that the services might have been held there, despite the fact the steps and other features are not completed. The pastor and officers, thought at time to hold services there next Sunday, August 5, but have not decided, if the conditions permit, services will be held there; if not, the church will worship again in the Center at 215 West 129th street. It was pleasing to see how the members responded to call to come to an artificially different place to what they had been accustomed to worship. The members living down town were first on the scene, thus showing that there hearts are in the work and worship. Bethel A. M. E. Church Bethle was filled to its uttermost capacity Sunday morning, for quarterly meeting day, and the presiding Rev. Herbert L. Wilson, the school superintendent, which was greatly enjoyed by all present. Many joined the church At 2 p.m. in the Church School Church At 6 p.m. in the Intermediate C.

The Holy Ghost filled the church and Bethel enjoyed a gospel feast. Sunday, August 5, at the morning hour the pastor will use as his theme, "The Value of a Soul." At the evening hour the theme will be "Left Hand." The senior department of the church school gave an outing on Friday evening which was enjoyed by a large number of young people. Chas.

The teacher, a retired the young folk that the mind is like a camera. Both good and bad impressions are made. They must shut the eyes of the brain to evil and open them to the truth. The mind is a treasure-box—only the best should be saved there. Finally, he told them to have a store of good righteous things. At 11 a.m. Dr. Rakestraw praised the students' composition. The text was from II Timothy 1:2. "For the which cause I also suffered these things—for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep that committed unto him against that day." The subject was "Trusting the Soul in Christ's Hand." We must have positive proof that we are born of God. When we can say as St. Paul "I know whom I have believed" then are we willing to undergo the hardships of life. An intellectual life of Christ is not enough. We must have acquaintance. We must not believe in anything we do not know in anything we do not know Jesus in his heart to trust Him. Here introduction is not enough. There must be contact and intercourse.

Oliver selected as a text for the morning sermon last Sunday, St. Matthew 22:47, "What Think Ye of Christ?" This discourse brought forth a great deal of interest. What think ye of Christ? is a question which individual must ask dealing with His person. His office, His life, His Death, His Resurrection, His Ascension and His ascension, his sowers made by the enemies and friends of Christ, it was found that none could find any fault with Him. And so throughout the ages Christ has been thought of as who is greater than any. And Whose Spirit with whosoever will entertain it. The Junior Church services were well attended, and the young people learned a lesson from a story, full of inspiration and hope, and Queens. In the afternoon the senior choir, Mrs. M. Brunage, president, presented Mr. Hogan of the University of Alabama, adored a beautiful sermon on "Attractiveness" John 12:32. A quartet from Abyssinian Baptist Church rendered several musical selections. The evening sermon was preached by Rev. John A. Matthews, text St. Luke 8:40 and St. Mark 5:17. Text Sunday evening, Prof. J. W. Younge secretary of Education, will deliver an address. The public is 'cordially invited. St. Martin's Chapel Rev. John H. Johnson chose as his subject for the 11 o'clock service "Every man shall bear his own burden." It was appropriate as the last sermon before his vacation. He compared this passage with an anecdote and a dictionary, that is, "Ye shall bear one another's burden." He brought out the difference of these two passages by showing that collectively we should bear one another's burden with our sympathy, and collectively, we must bear our own burdens. At the 4:30 service the Nixon Choral, society gave a five musical program, which was well received and enjoyed by the congregation. During August the Rev. S. W. Brite, the pastor of Pace Divinity School of Petersburg, Va. will occupy the pulpit and it is the wish of Rev. Johnson that a large congregation greet Rev. Brite on each Sunday morning. The children of the Daily Vacation Bible School will have their closing exhibition on Friday, August 3 at 8:15 p. m. entrance on West 122nd street. Emangel A. M. E. Church At the Sunday morning service, July 29, the pastor, Rev. D. Ward Nichols, preached a masterful sermon upon "The Mission of the church." Rev. Nichols said that the church has two important missions, one to teach men and women to prepare for after life, and the other to teach men and women to live here in this world with their fellow men. He said that the bishop is put in the position by teaching men and women to vote for leaders who are God-fearing men, and who will look after the needs of humanity. This was a practical sermon, and one from which all could gain much. At the Sunday school, which is constantly growing, was well attended at 3 o'clock. As usual, the 8 o'clock service was splendidly attended the collection for the day was good, several persons joined the church St. James Pres. Church Sunday, July 29, was Women's Day in St. James, with the Women's Bible Class, under leadership of Mrs. F. P. Sanders, teachive and the Missionary Society, under leadership of Mrs. W. F. Michael, at the evening hour. In addition, there was a large afternoon meeting of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters and Maids, time a notable program was held. The pastor, the Rev. Wm. Lloyd Imes, preached the Women's Day sermon at 11 a.m., from the text in Matthew 15:28, "O Woman, who is a man, is a distinctive qualities of woman's life in relation to Christianity, her appreciation, her persistence, and her prophetic vision. Miss Kinniehurst, examiner of Board of National Missions, gave her sermon at the evening service, the Missionary Society presented Mrs. Iris W. Underhill jr., who, with her husband, the Rev. I. W. Underhill jr., are soon to sail for Africa, in the West Africa missionary service in the West Africa mission of the Presbyterian Church. Mrs Underhill was received into the membership of St. James Church, with the Missionary Societies of St. James and the Session standing with her at the alar. Mrs. Underhill told of her life-long desire to go, since a child to stairways of life and the power of Christ to illumine and direct our lives. Rev. Mr. Underhill also spoke briefly, and a splendid reading was given by Mrs. Lillian Hawkins, "When Nature wants a Man" The Daily Vacation Bible School, under Mrs. Harriett Briggs, presented a pantomime showing the visit of Christ to the home of a woman who neglected her children. Mr. Sanders told briefly of missionary work in the Southland.

Church Despite the fact that it was summer time nearly 1,000 people were present at the morning hour when the pastor, Dr. Edward E. Tyler, attended the sternion. It was based on St. Luke 10:9. Dr. Tyler stressed the commendation of the unjust steward in the text. He said that the steward who wasted away his nassal, so doing but was commended because he was alert, sagacious, resourceful and foresighted, and made friends, and when he was dismissed from the service of his congregation, he helped his friends came to his rescue. He also stated that certain phases of the parable were challenges to the "children of light", or the real Christian. The first challenge was the fulness of the Christian. The other is to wisdom of the Christian. The Christian should be as wise as the worldly person. We must know that it is a challenge to our reality, that is, we must face the world and as Christians face the future. We must do things in a genuine spirit of devotion and not be driven or coerced, and when we do, we should make use of the material things of life, such as money and other things, to make friends for ourselves and for God. We should make use of the church. At the evening hour the Rev. James B. Adams presiding elder of the A. M. E. Church at Omaha Neb, was the speaker.

Among them are the church of Christ, which were largely for physical comfort, there did not come perfect happiness, except to those who claimed the Lord as their God.

She said many false rumors been spread and yet the conditions were indescribably horrible. Siloam Presbyterian Ch. The morning hour of worship at Silbam, Rev. George Shippen Stark, pastor, taking his text from Palms 90, the first clause of verse 17, beautifully and forcibly portrayed the beauty, the gloriousness<sup>s</sup> and the radiance of religion. One must first be familiar with them, the beauty must come from within, must come from a radiant personality, then do we become charming as to our manner and in all that we do. Religion is meant to be a beautiful thing and is summed up in the requirements as made by Our Lord, to do justly, love mercy and walk humility, to be a member and friend of the Ladies Church Aid Society had a delightful time on their outing to Bear Mountain. The Daily Vacation Bible School held its closing exercises on Wednesday evening, with exhibition of handwork by the boys and girls.

A large audience gathered at the evening time for the mass sermon. The women's Stop Lynchings League, in its opening remarks, Dr. Proctor said. Lynching is peculiarly an American 'crime', and is perpetrated chiefly, but not exclusively, on colored people. It is done mainly, but not wholly, in the South. The white slave, conservatively estimated, there have been four thousand men, women and children summarily put to death in the South. Thanks to the growth of public sentiment in behalf of law and order, however, there has been a concern that the white slaveless, so that the number of deaths through this form of vio- THE leience has greatly decreased. There have been only six years. The improvement in this matter has been the result of racial and internal organizations. Agitation should not cease until this iniquity is wiped off the escutcheon of education. The Dyer Lyril, which imprinting, and which has had the endorsement of a great political party, should be passed at the next Congress. Colored voters in each centers as Chicago and New York have their own race to Congress, to plead for their people. The Rev. Dr. M. I. Coit, secretary of Missions of the A. M. E. Church, opened his address by an attack on the position of Bishop of the diocese of Gov. Smith. He held that at Washington, the Northern and Southern Democratic was the same. He urged the "women as well as the men to use their ballot in behalf of the party that was committed against lynching. If the men did not get together and send a man to Congress the women would do so. She scored the non-voters for their delinquency. Dr. Proctor will-preach Sunday morning on "God as the Servant," a special meeting under the auspices of the Men's Club, Andrew Ball-four. The speaker will be Alfred LeDoux (Mr. Zero), who will speak on his experience in helping the men who were down and in the place in the Bowery. There will be a program of music, with Mira Bergen as solist.

He clearly "demonstrated that it is possible for a man to be a great athlete and also an excellent student at the same time. Of Wildman Lee, Coach Gideon T. Smith says: "He is the type of athlete that a coach enjoys having on his squad and a man the school is proud to turn out. No more will the student body cheer the superplaying of, Wildman on the Hampton team, but it will often refer to his playing at many of the games that will be played in future years. He has set a record that will be an honor for any athlete to strive to attain." For the comfort of the public. Bath on every floor. A few have private bath and kitchenette.

Combination shows of, this nature are shown once or twice a year at the Lafayette and they always meet with unusual approval from the patrons of the theatre. The present revue was hailed as the matinee audience on Monday as dazzling and delightful novelty and the best revue that has appeared at the Lafayette Theatre in months. There are two distinct companies—principals and chorus, and a jazz band under the leadership of Joe Jordan In the opening number, entire company makes its appearance.

It just seemed that the colored players, without effort, acting as judges, policemen, rough-necks, and as refined ladies and gentlemen, generated a brand of humor which literally convulsed the audience and sent them from the theatre praising the revue as the best in many months. The hit of the show is a little sixteen-year old boy who has never been in New York before, but we predict that many weeks will pass before he goes back to Washington. His name is Paul Wheatley After doing a novel soft-show dance and also giving a dance rendition of the Bugle Blues which brought storms of applause, little Wheatley (they call him "featherfeet") gave an imitation of Bill Robinson (Bo-jangles) in his famous dance up and down the steps. The audience gave him an ovation for this. Wheatley's performance alone is worth the price of admission to the Lalayette this week.

Police and gangsters waged battle with machine guns and blank carridges, while firing over their heads, trained marksmans outside of the camera lines battered down doors with a hail of steel-jacketed bullets. The gangster battle is one of many thrills in the spectacular new picture, in which the adventures of a great diamond are traced from its discovery in the African mines through a maze of theft, intrigue, and tragedy. John McCarthy, directed the new picture at the MetroGoldwyn-Mayer studios with one of the most notable casts ever assembled, for a single picture. In fact, as there were three sequences, one in Africa, one in society, and one in the underworld, three separate casts of celebrities were employed. The players include Eleanor Boardman, Conrad Nagel, Gwen Lgs. Lawrence Gray, John Roche, Lena Malena, Hardy, George Cooper, Lew Harvey, E Alyn Warren and many others of note. A reproduction of the great diamond mines, with a small army of native workers, the sensational gangster battle, a revel in a night club, with Leila Malena in a, sensational dance amd a shower of glittering rhinestones, and other lavish features embellish the new picture.

SATION OF THE YEAR And WHITE COMEDY REVUE A Cast Of AND WHITE Dancers and Dramatic Actors Photoplay: With MARIE PREVOST ing Monday, August 6) A N N I N G IN THE REALM OF MUSIC By LUCIEN H. WHITE YOUNG WASHINGTON BARITONE PLEASES IN HIS FIRST METROPOLITAN RECITAL Barrington Guy, baritone, who has been heard in New York City in concert with the Howard University Gloe Club, Washington, made the central individual recital debut on Thursday evening, July 26, at the Central Branch YMCA auditorium, Hanson place, Brooklyn, under direction of Percy E. Newbie of Brooklyn. Despite that it was midsummer, and regardless of a temperature that abbed consistently in the middle eighties, it was a splendid audience that greeted the young artist—an audience in which the musical intelligence of Greater New York was well represented. Indeed, those not present were those who were probably out of the city on their annual vacations. And those who came out were well-repaid for their venture. Mr. Guy disclosed a voice of variable quality and uneven tessitura, but he also displayed a mastery of the art of singing, with a sense of dramatic values, that entitles him to a ranking as one of, the most promising of our young artists. He does not sing with tremendous volume, but handles his voice with skillful regard to its possibilities, and with an intelligent sense of dynamic contrast. There is a dryness, an aridity of color, a lack of sonority, in the lower register. This was especially evident in the opening phrases of the "Prologue" from "Pagliacci," but in the middle and upper ranges the voice takes on life and vital timbre, albeit there is a delicacy of tone that approaches the tenor quality. It was in the final number, Schubert's great song, "Der Erlkönig," that Mr. Guy reached his greatest height of vocal dramatic expression. His voice seemed to take an added power, and his artistic interpretation was most realistic. This convincing evidence of the singer's ability along the line of interpgtative singing made one regret that the singer had not memorized Deems Taylor's song of the old sea captain, "Captain Stratton's Fancy," his first English song, so that its striking thimaz might have been more powerfully developed. "The Crying of Water," a song by Campbell-Tipton, afforded opportunity for displaying the excellent mezzo quality of Mr. Guy's voice, and the artistry with which he develops nuances and shadings. This song was repeated. The only Spiritual sung during the evening was given as an encore at conclusion of the third group, four English songs, when the singer gave Burleigh's "Don't you weep when I am goe," an arrangement that lends itself happily to Mr. Guy's dramatic style. The opening songs were two Scarlatti song, "Sento nel core" and "O cessate di piagarmi," sung in Italian, as was the "Prologue," which followed. The English songs were "Captain Stratton's Fancy," "The Crying of Water," "Night," by Rachmaninoff, and "A Feast of Lanterns," by Bantock. This latter was also a finished and artistic rendition. German songs predominated, seyen being programed. But one of these Gregs "Ein Swan," was conceived, in favor of a repetition of the "Prologue" (by request), and there were those who regretted the change. Two other Grieg songs, "Water Lily" (in English) and "Ich Liebe Dich" were given, however, and a request brought repeating of of the first named. The first group of German songs was made up of "Auf geheimen aldispide" by Griffes; "Sylvelin" by Sinding, and "Im herbst" by Franz. An added number was Massenet's "Elegie" (in English). The final programed number was "Der Erlkönig," but insistent demands of the audience brought the second rendition of "Water Lily" and a Russian number, "Nitchevo." The piano accompaniments were played by Andrades Lindsay. There was a slight inaccuracy in the introduction to the "Prologue," and an unfortunate tendency at times to too much forte when the voice was singing mezzo or pianissimo, but on the whole Miss Lindsay, a talented young musician, gave fine and adequate support to the singer. It was announced previously that a portion of the proceeds would be donated for the boy's work of the Carlton Avenue Branch Y. M. C.A. and there was listed a distinguished array of patrons, including both Brooklynites and Manhattanites, with out-of-towners from Coatesville, Pa., Plainfield and Newark, N. J. Boston, Washington, Americus, Ga., Buffalo, Tallahassee, Fla., Wheeling W. Va., Portsmouth, Norfolk and Danville, Va., Hartford, Conn., Oakland, Calif., Shreveport and Alexandria, La., and French Lick, Ind. Deserved Tribute To Hall Johnson Singers The splendid singing of the ensemble of twenty voices, which Hall Johnson has assembled under the name of the Hall Johnson Negro Choir, at the Lewissohn Stadium on July 23 and 24, is still smoking favorable comment from the musical cognoscenti of New York. All of the metropolitan reviewers of musical activities in New York gave fine credit to the singers under Mr. Johnson's direction. Miss Blanche Watson, a young white woman, was present at the stadium on Monday night, July 23, when a sudden electrical rainstorm put an end to the Philharmonic-Symphony Orchestra's activities for the evening, but which did not prevent a large group of the audience from paying the distinctive tribute to the singers of remaining through the rainstorm to hear the entire vocal program, and then some more. And last Sunday's World, on its music page under the caption, "Musical Addenda," carried the following comment from Miss Watson: MUSICAL ADDENDA A correspondent, Blanche W.appearance of the Hall JohnsonStadium.

"I take it for granted that the readers of The World are interested in any notable musical event, such as the appearance of the Hall Johnson singers at the Stadium Monday night. As your critic evidently was among the first to leave the Stadium, he failed to witness an exhibition of appreciation that is rare even in music-loving New York. He says that the "chair sang on as the audience departed." As a matter of fact a very respectable part of the audience remained and heard—I venture to say—some of the most glorious singing of their lives. All toob many New York people have no knowledge of the charm and quality of Negro music, aside, perhaps, from that of Roland Hayes, and many consider him an exception. "At 10 o'clock an audience that would have more than filled many of our theatres, massed on the stage, in the field, and on the wet stone seats, gave forth a vociferous 'No', when the leader of this unique and tuneful organization announced the concluding number.

THE NEW YORK AGE WEEKLY NOTES FROM INDIA By The Age Special Correspondent Reform Commission Viceroy has summoned a private conference of all leaders, which is in connection with the coming Statutory Commission, which will consist of purely non-Indian, Parliamentary Commission, with no place for non-Indian leaders. Sakalava, who both are members of Parliament, five members will be from the House of Commons, and two from the Lords, with Sir John Simmons as chairman. Viceroy is afraid that Indian leaders, might boycott this commission and therefore is wooing all leaders by some private conference, and offering them all sorts of temptations. India's accorded having full and direct determination of the tution on the basis of the representatives of the better counsels Tory-Cabinet, and I co-operation on the public inquiry into theally respectful counsels with respecting dials will laying circus which Mle Birkenhead and he out to India. Clear Cut I Boycott this commission and therefore is wooing all leaders by some private conference, and offering them all sorts of temptations. The extremely able the employees' case by his address at the sp Viceroy intends starting a policy of divide- and rule in the extremist camp of Indian National Congress. Mahatma Ghandi is also invited. With far less ingenuity and with a longed desire of political humility London's Tiruneshvara convince Indians that the exclusion of is really non-exclusion. The Maharaja of Burdwan mirrors accurately Indian opinion that the appointment of a purely Parliamentary Commission to inquire into the political advancement and reforms of Indian Constitution will lead to a wide-reaching body by all schools of thought in India. When even the chorus girls of the British Empire warn the Imperial Orchestra that the tune it wishes to play is unpleasant and exceedingly offensive, those who provide the orchestra should have the elementary good sense to realize that it is no good exasperating the audience to expose the situation to walk out or to stay away. India's position in this matter is clear. She wants and is determined to have reality of freedom and not sham reforms. Whatever the procedure adopted to secure her end, and to maintain it must be based on the principle of from the interest manifested by the people, who assembled in appreciative audiences to listen to the children's orchestra playing concert music, no one missed tripping the light fantastic toe. It was directed by David H. Johnson Jr, the talented young violinist, oldest son of Mr. Johnson, and under his baton the orchestra's playing was a revelation to those who had not previously heard the juvenile orchestra. It was the first time such musical offerings was had given on a staterun excursion out of New York City. Among the numbers played were such as "War March of the Priests" from Mendelssohn's "Athalamus," "Serenade"; Rachmaninoff's "Prelude," and Paderdewski's "Minuet." On the return trip, Pastor Robinson-introduced Mrs. M. J. Hunter, an evangelist, who has been conducting revitalized services at the church and she made a short address, reiterating the message of the thousand or more people on the boat, and the pleasant time spent, inspite of the fact dancing was taboo and that four other excursions had left the same dock in the morning Vocal students of Alexander Gatewood, tenor, appeared in a recital on Monday evening, July 30, at the Faverweather Studio, 424 Hammer street. Mr. Gatewood has several pupils of great promise and the promise on this occasion-was of interest. Harmon Foundation Offers Prize For Best Entry In Art Exhibit $A prize of $250 offered by an anonymous patron, will be awarded the best entry at the second nationwide exhibition of the art productions of American Negroes, to be held at International House, 500 Riverside Drive, New York. Jan. 16th the exhibition is sponsored by the Harmon Foundation in cooperation with the Commission on the Church and Race Relations of the Federal Council of Churches. The prize will be conferred upon the artist who in the opinion of the jury has entered the position of the prize provided by the donor was granted last year to Sargent Johnson, a sculptor of Berkeley, California. The work of Negroes from all areas of the country is to be shown at the exhibition, according to a statement made by the Harmon Foundation today. "The exhibit is confined this year to persons who have entered their productions, in the Award in, Fine Arts of the Harmon Awards for Distinguished Achievement Among Needy Children who have newly received one of these awards!" said Mary Beattie Brady, the Director. "We are giving opportunity for extensive presentation by changing the date for final entry until after the vacation period. All applications and nominations of candidates must be in the hands of Dr George Haynes, Secretary of the Commission, 105 East Zint Street, New York, N. Y. by September 10, 1928. "The entire group of the awards, which cover seven fields of creative work, was conceived by the late William E. Harmon through his interest in the economic development of the American Negro. He founded a fund of 100 and a bronze medal with $100 will be given in each of the fields of literature, music, fine arts, business including industry, science including invention, education and religious service. This is the third year of the series of awards Provision for their continuance was made by Mr. Harmon prior to his death, according to a plan which had been worked out. India's 'accredited representatives having a fall and effective voice in the determination of the future constitution on the basis of equality with the people, and less better counsels prevail in the Tory Cabinet, and it seeks Indian co-operation on the straightforward public inquiry into the Reforms, the only self-respecting course for India. It is to be boycotts the traveling circus which Messrs Baldwin, Birkenhead and Co. intend sending out To India. Clear Cut Issues The extremely able exposition of the employees case by Mr. Giri in his address at the special session of the All-India Railway Men's Federation must convince dispassionate and unprejudiced observers of the unfortunate quarrel between the Nepal Nagpur Railway and its employees at the Khapurgar workshops that the latter's contention is unanswerable. The agent, came out on the eve of the conference with a pontifical utterance that one of the two committees appointed by the Government of India to investigate cases of ships in regard to retrenchment was in regard to retrenchment was therefore, of course, that the men's union should continue an active propaganda for organizing a general strike of Indian employees throughout the railway. The special pleading on the part of the agent to convince the public that the men are intimate and mischevious in their activity to off the calamity which threatened them, will not hold water for a minute. The agent has not taken the trouble, to consider favorably the demands of the employees and is not even prepared to hold in abeyance his scheme of retrenchment till the decision of the Government commit itself that therefore is obvious that intends strengthening his iron rod while the workers should be left to humiliation by unconditional surrender. It is now proved that there is no necessity of retrenchment if the Government does not assist the British workshops in England to help unemployed in England. It is忌惰 to employ the general strike all over India and if the men are driven to desperate remedies the fault lies with the Government. The Petish of Prestige The Government of India has at last seen the necessity of providing some kind of reply to the urgent and naturally very persistent demand of the Bengal Nagpur Railway who have been served with the notices of dismissal to inquire into their cases, by appointing one member of the Railway another of the Government and employees have the backing of their Union and the whole-hearted support of every well-wisher of Labor in India, of everyone who wishes equity and fair play to obtain between the relations of the employer and the employee. The B. S. Ry. Labour Union voicing the demand that men make definite charges against laborers by their way in regard to the motive promoting such dismissal of 2,000 men out of 10,000. The Union holds that victimization, a spirit of revenge for the failure of the previous adamatine efforts to break the back of the Union, is at the bottom of this move for reduction in the strength of the employees at the Kharagpur work place, in capitalized by the many in working expenses. The Government of India has refused to institute an inquiry into these grave and justifiable allegations of the men. The contention of the Government of India in this reduction is that the machine work replaces the manual labor. But they avoid to give out manual labor in the above cases in the capitalized way stocks and materials outside India and give profit to foreign concerns like Argus Engineering Works no matter whether Indian workmen starve. The Fraud of Indianization and repeated assurances by the Government of India in the Assembly at Delhi and Simla, that such Indianization will be real and rapid, Indians have 'ample reason to complain that the policy of Indianization which is being practised is a fraud and a humbug and an attempt to I KNEW YOU WOULD BE ON THIS TRAIN SO I THOUGHT I DMEET YOU AND SAVE YOU THE LONG WALK TO OUR HOUSE-HERE'S THE FIVE BEANS, MY MONTHLY INSTALLMENT ON THE FURNITURE! LONESOME HURST INSTALLMENT COLLECTOR boodwink the public. This is the case particularly in regard to the railways. With the separation of railway finance from the general finance, investment in the railways. Assembly had hoped that there would be better chances of discussing in thorough detail questions of store-supply, the provision of wagons and other railway materials, and most important of all, Indian railways. It is found out that inspite of the protest of the country, the wanchant-expenditure of the Indian tax-payers' money is adopted to reduce un-employment in England, and that there is a serious and important account in the arresting proposal is to import from England the chartered accountants for the Indian Railways on a salary of 2,500 and 1,500 rupees. i. e., about $600 a month, in order that a number of employed chartered accountants in England might get a living in India. Miss Mayo Again A reliable informant has said to a press agent that the India office purchased about 5,000 copies of the book (value 5,000 pounds to broadcaster Mr. Srinivasan). He has further stated that the author (drain inspector, as Gandhi said) was engaged by a syndicate of retired Anglo-Indians who assisted him in the investigation.

The record was that of the late Andrew B. Lattimore, who served in the Common Council of the city from 1889 to 1898. It was he who introduced the resolution recommending that a monument be erected in Boston to the valor and deeds of that historic Negro patron, Crispus Attuck. The resolution was carried without a dissenting voice, and one thousand dollars was voted then and there as a foundation fund. When I presented myself at City Hall, Mr. Edward J. Leary, who serves as messenger and librarian at the Hall, received me with due courtesy, and after learning my mission he become markedly interested, for he was the man who escorted the new member to his seat on his first entrance to the Council Chamber. It was an act of which the librarian spoke with noticeable pride in relating his memories of the late Mr. Lattimore. The record of the late Councilman is a notable testimony of one who served his city and his race creditably and honorably. Fifteen or more years ago, Mr. Lattimore passed to the Great Beyond, leaving behind a wife and two sons. As in all cases, when death takes the head of a happy and ambitious family, the happening was a sad and discouraging one for the remaining members. It was sad, because Mr. Lattimore was an exceptionally good and kind husband and father. It was discouraging, because both sons had ambitions for a professional training. Both had graduated from the common schools of the city, and both were expecting to enter college the following year. The father's death disrupted this anticipation to a certain extent but, not entirely, however. The two boys, Allie and Andrew, drew lots as to which would be the home provider while the other pursued the goal of his ambition. The lot fell to Allie, the older boy. Both boys had worked in the Pullman service during vacation periods in the common schools. So, it was decided that Andrew should go to college and the older brother would work regularly as a Pullman porter. It was a sacrifice which makes the senior brother, today, one of the most respected and admired Negroes in the City of Boston, despite the humble vocation he follows. However, the sacrifice he made has not been in vain. The younger brother, who is now Dr. Andrew Lattimore, is one of the outstanding-practitioners of the medical profession in the city of Boston. And be it said to his credit, he never omits or forgets to praise the brother who made it possible-for him to prepare himself for this profession. On the other hand, hand, there is hardly another man to be found who is prouder of his brother's success than is Allie of Andrew's. In fact, there is a bond of mutual loyalty and affection between these brothers that is somewhat similar to those Biblical characters, David and Jonathan, in the Book of Samuel. In chronicling this bit of history of an old Boston family, the head of which began as a butter and egg merchant in old Fanueil Hall Market, and who helped to make Fanueil Hall a symbol of liberty and equality, without fear or favor, it would be amiss of me not to mention the mother of these brothers. One cannot always say with truth: "Show me the mother and I will draw my own picture of the sons;" but one can almost invariably say with surety: "Such sons could have had no other but a fine mother." Mrs. Lattimore is one of those refined and charming women, whose sterling characteristics have been inherited to a large degree by both her boys. She is proud of them and of her. If it is true that the dead can see the loved ones they leave behind, I am sure that the late Andrew Lattimore will not be displeased with what he sees of the family he left behind.
