No.6 Wire Cage At Democrat Recalls Action of When Speaking Dr. J.

Washington's Good Will Tours in that state, hitherto unmold, in a theatre in which Dr. Washington spoke to a mixed audience of colored and white, hearers, on which occasion an attempt to separate the races by visible barriers was quickly resented by the Tuskegee founder, who refused to speak until the barriers had been removed. Should Cause Serious Thought. Dr. Kenny writes as follows "KENNEY MEMORIAL HOSPITAL 132-134 West Kinney Street *Newark, N. J.* October-12th, 1928. *Editor of The New York Age:* *The publication by you, in* The New York Age for Saturday, October 13, of the "Actual Photograph of the Jim Crow Wire Cage Installed at the Democratic National Convention for all Negroes Who Attended the Convention, should get every Negro who is planning to vote the Democratic election to the thinking series. Regardless of the estimate that he puts upon the candidate, can he support a party who has such fear of contamination by his presence that by said party he is caged off as though he were a savage cast?* Separated by Sheets. This calls to my mind an incident in the life of the late Booker T. Washington which I have never seen in print, and to which I was an eye-witness. It happened during his "Gool Will Tour" of the State of Florida. For the purpose of his address to a mixed audience of white and colored citizens, one of the first acts of the tour was the first time that Negroes had ever been into this theatre for any occasion. When Dr. Washington came upon the rostrum by the stage entrance, in looking over the large audience he saw that the house was divided into two longitudinal sections by sheets or curtains from the rostrum all the way back to the door. He was visibly affected, strongly to say that he was actually angry. He walked to the front of the stage and in attitude and voice he showed the deep feeling within him. Had Sheets Removed. "Without any greeting to the audience he said: 'I have travelled all over this country and in many foreign countries, but this is the first time I have ever seen white people and colored people separated by sheets, and now before I begin my address, I want those things taken down from there." "And he stood without another cord awaiting the execution of his demand. He did not have to wait long for immediately from some source there sprang several hands that took hold of the sheets or curtains and in much less time that it takes to tell it, they were removed. He then said, 'Now I'll begin.' An Act of Heroism. This may not seem like very much of an act of courage to some, but to me, considering the environment and all conditions associated with it, it was an act of heroism, distinctly showing where he stood on matters affecting the standing of his race. What would he have done? for I love it in Houston? Was there one here to take his place and fight against this outrage? I did not believe that respectable FOURTH CONCERT, And FASH colored voters can look upon this picture which you present and with honest racial convictions support the party who thus advertises in no uncertain way to the world its contempt for the race. "In presenting this matter as you have, I think you have done a fite piece of work at an opportune time. "JOHN A. KENNEY." MOREHOUSE IN CAMPAIGN FOR ENDOWMENT FUND To Raise $300,000 To Get Same Amount From General Education B'd MOREHOUSE IN CAMPAIGN FOR ENDOWMENT FUND To Raise $300,000 To Get Same Amount From General Education B'd Atlanta, Ga.—At a meeting of the executive committee of the board of trustees last week, Morehouse College formally accepted the offer of the General Education Board to give to the college $300,000 toward an endowment, provided the college raised an equal amount within a period of three years. With this acceptance, plans are now on foot for the campaign to raise Morehouse's quota. One of the first steps in the campaign will be the organization of the Alumni. And with that in view the college has secured the services of an able and alert young business man, A. W. Dent, 1926, who comes to Morehouse College this year as alumni secretary. Before graduation he was attached to the Atlanta Life Insurance Company. He remained with the company three years, and when he resigned in September 1930 on his independent business enterprise in Honston, Texas, he was traveling auditor. In Houston he became vice-President of the Safety Construction company, from which company he has obtained a year's leave of absence to line up the alumni of Morehouse College for a successful campaign.

He urged the new students to cherish the every day incidents of their college life as those affording everlasting memories. Glennwood Jones was introduced as president of the Student Council. The climax of the evening was the "element" address of Merrill D. Booker, newly elected president of the freshman class. The new comers gave their leader strong support in appropriate songs and yells. President Jones congratulated the students upon their opportunities for worthwhile associations while in college. He expressed delight in the privilege, as he travels about the country, to visit Howard men and women in their homes, campus associates, who had become "yoke fellows" for life. Lakewood, N.

Mr. Randolph spoke on the "Negro Hater," Jos. T. Robinson, and his unfitness for the Vice-Presidency. Mr. Randolph said our race has produced Populists, Socialists, etc., but the "most odd monstrosity," produced by the race is what is called "the colored Democrat." J. E. Sadler addressed the club upon the practice of the Democratic party to release criminals from jail in order to get their vote. He denounced its persistence practice of Jim Crow segregation and distranchissement of the Negro, and he spoke of the character, education, training and ability of Herbert Hoover.

But he reckoned without thought of Traffic Officer Reuben Carter, who is stationed at that busy corner. The man who was robbed yelled "Thief!" at the top of his voice and Officer Carter got busy. He followed the sleeping thief, and as Irving reached 144th street and what he thought was safety, the officer nabbed him. Irving was taken to the West 135th street station and arraigned in the 12th District Court, Washington Heights, with the result that the court held him on a charge of grand larcey for the grand jury. The money was recovered by Officer Carter. The robbery occurred Monday morning at 8:50 o'clock, shortly after the traffic officer had gone on duty, and the thief was taken to station house and court and held for the grand jury, all within the space of about two hours Of Mother A. M. E. Zion Church NEW YORK, N. Y., SATURDAY, OCTOBER 20, 1928 Southside Chicagoans Assemble In Large Numbers At Eighth Regiment Armory Sunday For Hoover Meeting Chicago, Ill., October Armory, 35th and Giles'a battle ground for many a Governors, Senators and the country have spoken for to overflowing on Sunday wild enthusiasm greeted Snie H.

Ph others who talked on the Chicago, Ill., October 15.—The Eighth Regiment Armory, 35th and Giles avenue, which has been the battle ground for many a political fight and where Governors, Senators and statesmen from all parts of the country have spoken for the G. O. P., was packed to overflowing on Sunday afternoon, October 14, and wild enthusiasm greeted Senator Watson, Miss Nannie H. Burroughs, Wm. Pickens, Oscar DePriest and others who talked on the issues of the campaign. Senator Adelbert H. Roberts, head of the Western Division of the Republican National Committee presided at the meeting. Hopkary vice presidents occupied seats on the platform and they were among the leading citizens of the city. The women were there by the thousands and cheered and cheered as the speakers told how the Republican Party fought for the enactment of the 18th Amendment to the Constitution, and how they had registered and will fight November 6 for "no untangling" with this Amendment by Al Smith. The armory was decorated with American flags and large Hoover and Curtis pictures. J. Wesley Jones' chorus of 100 voices sang and enlivened the audience. Roscoe Simmons introduced Senator Roberts. stressed the fact that the 18th Amendment was not to be tampered with, and that if left to the American women of her race, the Amendments to the Constitution will remain for ever. She delivered a beautiful tribute to Hoover, the home builder, Quaker, statesman and humanitarian, and said he would be the next President of the United States. Smith Dominated by South William Pickens, New York City, in course of his address, said "Smith and his organization are now and will be dominated, even if elected, by the South. The South does not want the Negro in the Democratic Party, for fear he may claim some right of privilege from Senator Roberts Speaks. Senator Roberts discussed the issues in the campaign and slaved the Negro Democrats who are for "revenue only." Rising to heights of oratory as he has done on many occasions and his voice filling every corner in the armory, he said, "Not only do we believe that Hoover will make the best President for white people but we believe that Hoover will make the best President for the Negro. We are neither blind nor unrateful. No people in America will suffer more under the Democratic Party's position on the immigration question than the Negro. "He knows too well the Republican Party found him a slave and made him a freeman. It found him a political cipher in politics and put the ballot in his hand. He knows, too, that the Democrat Party is enshilling his people now. He has through peonage, in a different but better way. He knows that it is the Democrat Party that disfranchises him, Jim crowds him and denies him his constitutional rights. 'I am confident that the Negro in America will give ocular demonstration of his loyalty, his gratitude, his' good sense, by voting for Herbert Hoover, who is too big to be small, too rightful to be unjust, a humanitarian whose Quaker blood will make him as wore his fathers in anti-bellum days, the friend and not the enemy of my people." Senator Watson Orates. United States Senator James T. Watson of Indiana, one of the Senators who, has not been sound straddling on issues affecting the Negro in Congress, was given a rousing reception when he was introduced. He spoke of his loyalty to every cause of the Negro when his rights were before Congress. The Senator then discussed the issues of the day and what the Republican Congress had enacted into law for the benefit of the American people. Here he spoke of the creation of the Foreign Debt Funding Commission, the appropriation of $1,000,000,000 for disabled ex-service men, restricted immigration, Hillary and property of the country under protective tariff. He declared that Indiana would go overwhelmingly for Hoover and Curtis. The Senator has served continuously in both Houses for thirty-three years. Miss Burroughs for Hoover. Miss Nannie H.

E. Zion Church ROWN, Pastor GIVEN BY (By Carv B. Lewis) stressed the fact that the 18th Amendment was not to be tampered with, and that if left to the American women of her race, the Amendments to the Constitution will remain for ever. She delivered a beautiful tribute to Hoover, the home builder, Quaker, statesman and humantarian, and said he would be the next President of the United States. Smith Dominated by South William Pickens, New York City, in course of his address, said: "Smith and his organization are now and will be dominated, even if elected, by the South. The South does not want the Negro in the Democratic Party, for fear he may claim some right of privilege from Democratic powers. Robinson, the Vice-Presidential nominee, comes from a state where the Negro has no rights which the rest of the citizens are bound to respect. The Democrats run the South, and the South is the worst place to live for the Negro except Africa, and in some ways it's worse than South Africa. One does not have to theorize. He has but to open his eyes Not a vote should be wasted The Democrats should be defeated." Oscar DePriest Pleads. Bishop A J. Carey, who has been a friend of Oscar DePriest for thirty years, introduced DePriest as the next Congressman from the 1st Congressional District. He traced his rise of the "tall sycamore" from a plasterer to the City Council—a man of wealth, brain and brawn, regularly and legally nominated by the Republican Party. In the course of is speech DePriest said he would rather have a loaf of bread than the promise of a glass of beer. He emphasized that "The charges against me are unwarranted and without foundation in fact. I will fight this and any other attempt to destroy my leadership and embarrass my people." He said he had retained E. H. Morris to defend him. Literature was distributed for Hoover and Curtis and the meeting had a pro-Hoover effect on the entire southside.

Sentiment Favoring Republicans Is Reported To Be On Steady Increase In Eastern States, Among Negroes New York City Republican Party Workers Are Made Targets of Democratic Insolence and Subjected To Prejudiced Discrimination Indications from trustworthy reports are that the Republican Presidential candidate, Herbert Hoover, is steadily increasing in favor with the voters in eastern states, particularly the colored voters, and in New York state there is a pronounced swelling of the number of supporters for Albert Ottinger, Republican candidate for Governor. Buffalo. N. Y.-Organization work among the Negro Republicans here is progressing favorably, and on October 12 and 13 the Negroes of Buffalo registered the largest number ever recorded in this city. This was not accomplished without friction, for in some of the Smith districts there was distinct antagonism in some of the booths against the Negro registrants. Prompt action by Mrs. Elizabeth B. Talbert, chairman Colored Voters' Division, in the form of special delivery letters to committeemen of the districts and to the Board of Elections, and the placing of women workers at the registration places bore good results. Meetings have been held with large and enthusiastic attendances. On October 9 District Attorney Guy B. Moore and C. Hamilton Cook spoke at Lackawanna, and on the 10th there was a women's meeting Women workers were at the registration booths, distributing literature and instructing new voters. Mrs. Talbert spoke at several churches on Sunday, October 14 and on the 15th there was a big meeting at Michigan Avenue Baptist Church at which a moving picture depicted the life of Herbert Hoover. Plans are being laid for meetings on October 23, with Mrs. A. W. Hunston as speaker; the 25th, Mrs. George S. Williams, National Committeewoman from Georgia, and the 31st, Mrs. Sara Pelham Speaks of Washington to the younger group.

J.—The regular monthly meeting of the North Jersey Medical Society was held Wednesday evening, October 3, at the residence of Dr. E. A. Robinson, Adkins avenue, this city. This was one of the largest meetings in the history of the organization. A paper was read by Dr. W. W. Wolfe of Newark on "Acute Intestinal Obstruction." Following this a paper was read by Dr. James Ackerman of Ashbury Park, on "Medical Metamorphos." A general discussion followed. At the close of the meeting a collation was served. The North Jersey Medical Society, by unanimous vote, extended an invitation to the National Medical Association to hold its annual meeting in 1929 in Newark, N. J. J. N. Parker, M.D., is president and G. F. Bell, M.D., secretary. A letter from the Rev. William N. DeBerry of Springfield, Mass., tells of an overwhelming sentiment among colored voters of that city in favor of Herbert Hoover, and of the activities of the colored leaders in promoting the interests of the G. O. P. In New York City, particularly in the Harlem section, there is a steady trend of sentiment toward the Republican nominees, and a particularly active campaign is being conducted on behalf of the candidacy of Edward A. Johnson for Congress from the 21st Congressional Districts, which embraces the 13th, 19th, 21st, 22nd and 23rd Assembly Districts. Endorses Johnson for Congress. E. N. Baringer, of the Progressive, Colored Republican Club, 56th Assembly District, 227 West n2nd street, writes a strong letter of endorsement of Mr. Johnson's candidacy. Writes Mr. Baringer: "I see by the papers that the candidate from the 21st Congressional District for Congress is E. A. Johnson, our former Assemblyman from the 19th A. D. I do hope the Negroes will see to it that their votes send him to Washington. Having spent a number of years at Shaw University when Mr. Johnson was dean, I think I am in a position to say something in his behalf. And his record as Assemblyman qualifies him for the position. I do hope you and all the well-thinking Negroes get behind this movement and let us send our first Representative of the race to Congress from our city." Interfest in the coming election is indicated by the record registration, a larger enrollment by far than has ever been made in New York City. And in connection with this unusual enrollment, there come stories of numerous instances of flagrant violations of the election laws by workers of the Democratic party. Charges Against Democrats Mrs Ruth M. Jones, president of the North End Republican Club, cites an incident occurring in the 25th Election District of the 19th A. D. in which Josiah Dixon, Republican captain, was abused and threatened with bodily injury by Irwin Isaacs, Democratic candidate for Assembly from the 19th A. D. a Tammany henchman and member of Martin Healy's Democratic Club. Mrs Jones charges that Isaacs, in violation of the election law, is insisted on examining the records being kept by the duly qualified election inspector, and when Mr Dixon asked for the Tammany man's credentials, to see whether or not he represented the Board of Elections, Isaacs pushed Dixon aside, threatening to beat him, using vile and abusive language relative to the Negroes in Harlem. And according to Mrs Jones, this is not the only instance of election law violations. She charges that there is being conducted a deliberate campaign to disfranchise and intimidate Negro voters in Harlem, and that Tammany cohorts have called Harlem Negro voters "illiterate niggers." Colored voters in Harlem are urged to register a stern protest against there methods by using the ballot on Election Day against the representatives of the party responsible for such practices. These actions are pointed to as a warning that war will happen if the city, state, and federal governments Taumann Hall, at heme, asserted that it will mean disfranchisement in all of the states instead of in a few states in the South. WEEKLY NOTES FROM INDIA By The Age Special Correspondent Sandit Motilal Nehru is elected as the President of the forthcoming Congress at Calcutta. He has travelled extensively in India and abroad and has just returned from Soviet Russia. He belongs to the extremists type of leaders, but not so advanced like his son Jawahirl Nehru. Recently under his presidentship the All-Party, Conference passed minigun demands of India for Constitutional advancement on the line of Dominion Status. It is now to be seen how he pilots the Indian national destiny in the next year. India Under Swarajya (Independence) Ministry Presidency Youth League provided an interesting variety during the week, and their travel idea of Swaraya parliament attracted considerable attraction. The following portfolios were generously distributed: Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru; (as Prime Minister); Mahatma Gandhi (Minister for Peace); Dr. Tagore (Minister for Education); Arbino Ghosse (Minister of Air—he is a great philosopher and a patriot too); Comrade Sakalatvala (Minister for Finance—he is the only Indian Member in the British Parliament); Moulana Shaukat Ali (Minister for health—The Of Shaukat Ah justified this portfolio); M. Al-limha (The Law Member); Dewan Chamal (Labor Minister). Premier Jawaharlal outlined the policy to be persuaded by the Swaraya Government, and his program was based on socialist principles by the abolition of Indian States and the post of Minister of War by that of Peace. Mr Nariman was given the portfolios of the Development Department. Rangoon, University Savengers and collies are forced to subscribe to the University Fund. We all do wish that the education that may be imparted to others may also be extended to these unfortunate illiterates but the public views with alarm the fund that has been used in the raining and gambling. If University Funds could not be taken good care of no force should have been used on the poor workers and toilers of the city like Rangoon to part with their little savings. But this is permissible within the British regime and the guilty persons can escape. Increase In Police Expenses The Bengal Legislative Council had overthrown the demands of the Government of $200,000 dollars being the increase in the salaries of higher police officials. This week the Governor has certified this grant amidst cries of "SHAME." People do not require European constables to keep, the prestige of law and order by showing their racial animosity. Independence Within The Congress At the sliding down policy of Indian leaders to keep pace with moderate party, and to frame the Indian Constitution on Dominion Status when the country clamours for Independence, Paudit Jawahiral has formed a new party within the congress to get support for Independence. Strike News There is no sign of settlement at sight. Strikers are firm. Bombay Mill-Owners on account of their being under some obligations to Sir Victor Sasoon in financial matters are now tired of Sasoon's group and think of independently settling with the strikers. Dr. Deshmukh the Mayor of <b>Bombay twice failed in his attempts to bring about a settlement Jamashedpur Strikers are firm. Today's message states that The Indian Chamber of Commerce at Calcutta is trying to bring about a settlement. There is a strike in Ahmedabad still going on in one of the Mills. Peaceful picketing is being organized. Attempts are being made to drive out picketers by Police Force Starvation is facing the workers all round. The Bombay Youth League has started collecting Funds for the strikers. But the apathy of the Indian Leaders especially towards the strikers deserve universal condemnation. Gandhi, the so-called leader of the poor tries to go to Jamashedpur because Tatas have subscribed some years back to his funds, and it is disgraceful that he does not think of the Bombay strikers who are quite near to him in Bombay a militant policy is being adopted by the leaders of the strikers towards Indian leaders. A time is drawing nigh when the present Indian leaders will be overthrown, and in a couple years the Workers and peasants movement will be coming to the forefront. Mrs. Naidu The Indian poetess and orator is proceeding shortly to Europe and America to deliver lectures on India. She is a talented lady and carries with her the support and well wishes of united India. She belongs of course to the rich class and armed-chair-patron type but her lucid command over English language has drawn towards her the sympathy of the whole country, she was a few years back the president of the Indian National Congress and looks forth for The Asian Federation to put a stop to the onrush of European exploitation Acquitted Mr. Mitra the Secretary of The East Indian By Men's Union who was prosecuted under section 117 of the Indian Penal Code during the Asansol Strike for leading a process against Police orders, was acquitted today. Some leaders of Lilhavi who were sentenced to 18 months imprisonment were acquitted in Appeal Court. The Secretary of the Passage, and Traffic Association of Bombay, Mr. Nensy was arrested by the police on a charge of creating disturbance in the streets—his only fault being that he took down the numbers of the police who were harrassing the hackney-drivers. He was taken to the police station; where too, the constable in charge insulted him by. using foul language and added something of his own to enable him to make the case strong. In the Magistrate's Court, for want of evidence and that too reliable, Mr. Jiwaraj Nenay was acquitted. This is the repetition of the incident referred to in my December notes. Ban On Ghandis Photograph One is surprised at the autocracy of the Principal of The Technical Institute, Bombay for not permitting students to weave the jaquared portraits of Gandhi and several eminent men of India. The Principal has the audacity to ask the students that he would permit the students to only weave the portraits of Officials, Viceroys, Governors, Ministers and Scientific people of the Members of the Board of Management. As a result of pettimindedness the authorities solved not to 'weave any portrait hereafter unless the portrait of Mahatam Gandhi comes on the loom first. BARDOLI, Gandhi has rushed to the scene. Vallahabai Patel has been called away at Poona to consult with the Council Members regarding the Governments offer to arrive at a settlement. Gandhi has occupied his own place which he used six years ago when he launched the no-payment tax campaign. The whole of India is watching a matching no-settlement arrives at, the no-tax campaign on sympathetic grounds will be launched through out India. How America Heard the News. How America heard about the Bardoli struggle, in what manner the Satyagraha (Passive Resistance movement) activity there and the methods adopted to repress it were productive of imaginative efforts in "catchy" writing by correspondents to the American Press is evident in a cutting from the "Tribune Capital" (Iowa) The scaring headline runs, "British Order Troops in India. Arm to Crush Passive Resistance Movement," and the cable despatched from London dated August 1 says, "Two British Regiments, two squadrons of cavalry, a machine gun section, twelve armored cars and an air force squadron have been assembled at Surat (India), to cope with the passive resistance movement at Bardoli." The message mentions that the passive resisters are organized in 24 camps with 1,500 volunteers; in each; while "an intelligence service of 600 has been organized and is reporting the movements of the Government." Trat is the stuff which America wants. Newa with a "punch." Why not rely on good news directly from India? Jama$hedpur Strike Ends. The negotiations between Subas Chandra Bose and the directors of the Tatas have resulted in the partial victory of the workers. The most disgraceful item is that there shall be no pay for the strike period. The company will advance one month's wages as a loan to the workers and a further two weeks wages at the end of the first month to those who are in need. All the men will be taken back. Decay of Rural India "Decadence and degeneration are the outstanding features of rural India," writes Mr. Nataranjan in The Bombay Chrombite. The visitor sees disease-striken children, beggars and lepers, men and women with enlarged spleens, due to the havoc of malaria. He sees signs of poverty, dirt and disease; notices the breakdown of the old irrigation system, the degeneration of domestic animals, excessive fractionalization of the agricultural holdings, the poor yield of the farms, the decline of the crafts, the congestion of homesteads, absence of schools, increase of litigation, communal tension and lack of cooperation. He notices a hundred other thing that cry for a thorough overhauling of the social structure. Under the benign British rule, the overhauling of the social structure is not possible unless political India awakes and conscientiously takes up the cause of the wide mass of illiterates in the villages. India is not only debt-ridden but also disease-ridden, and the root cause lies in the blessings of the British rule. The Public Safety Bill commonly known as Bolshev Bill was hastened through the Assembly and in spite of all protests will be passed through the teeth of public opposition. Sen. Gupta in his speech at Calcutta remarked that it is wonder that the government does not take resort to martial law to break the organization of workers. M. N Roy, whose letter, or rather the alleged letter, the government relies upon for embarking on the policy of terrorism has been now challenged by Roy Pandit Motil Nehru. Lala Lalajan Rai and others demanded to see the original letter of Mr. Roy, which was flatly refused. The elected members have openly said that the Foreign Capitalist must first be expelled and charged the Government with durdens motives in bringing forward a bill of the kind to protect the interests of the foreign capitalist. Even Sir Purshottandas, one of the capitalists, refused to be a part to the Government with a new weapon. The debate stands adjourned. Little change is noticeable in the Bombay strike. The workers are now living for their native villages. The Strikers SPREADING DEMOCRA BUNK IN HARLEM WHAT ABOUT THAT GANG BEHIND THE CURTAIN? STAY OFF THE SOUTH AL. IM FOR YOU HARLEM AND GINY BUT WHAT ABOUT THE REST OF THE COUNTRY? HOLLOWAY 140 Gov. Smith May Love His Harlem Brethren. But His Southern Henchmen Will Have The Last Say. Actual starvation they are facing from day to day and both sides seem to be unyielding. The reason for the Bombay mill-owners for not yielding is that practically all are indebted to the banks in which Sir Victor Sassoon wields great influence. The Imperial Bank who has so far assisted the mill-owners will refuse to help the India mill-owners if they break the Mill-owners Association and refuse to cooperate with the Sassoon groups. Recently they reduced the capital of their united mills to one-tenth of the capital and shortly it will be out that because of their indebtedness to the Sassoons the United Mills have been sold to the Sassoons for a song. In the boom period the United Mills were sold with huge profits to the public and even the clerks and the servants working in F. D. Sassoon and Co. Ltd, were forced to purchase a share Now the capital has been wiped out and reduced one-tenth. The strike on the Nian Railway shows no sign of breaking down Strikers are firm. The police are bringing new men and carrying on the recruiting campaign vigorously. Strikers are not only firm but peaceful in spite of all provocations. Arrested The Secretary of The Punjab Provincial Conference was arrested for his speech on Independence revolution in the All-Party Conference and it is now reliable informed that Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru will also be arrested for starting an Independence League of India. If Government embarks on the policy of ruthless terrorism, there will be great chaos in India and a vigorous national campaign to further the cause of the Independent League of India will be sooner launched. Southern Indian Ry Strike The Softs Outrage. The special Magistrate's report on the Bakarai occurrences as Solta, a village not just in Imperial Delhi, has at least been published in the Hindu Judaism and Mostolius of Solta had arisen over the question of cow sacrifice thanks to the mishandling of the cattle, and became complicated and ended by the police opening firing on a Jat crowd, killing fourteen and wounding about two hundred, and extending the made about the conduct of the police, and the Punjab government deputed Mr. Martin to enquire into the happenings, and to examine the guilt of the police as an extimate keeping in view the fact that there was over whelming evidence in the conspiracy that the untitled happier words that the untitled happier words could have been avoided altogether if the police "officials" had not mistled their words little doubt that it was the late lating and ambiguous policy of the lce that was responsible for the situation having taken a grave turn at all. The Punjab Government do not seem to agree with Mr. Martin and promise to conduct a separate inquiry into this aspect of the question. Will they go on conducting fresh enquiries till the police official emerges finally as white and snow? Mr Martin says that before firing a warning was given, but cleash forgets that he was given by a few who were nearby. He is of the opinion to disperse the crowd the police should have been equipped with the firearm, but the well lead us to believe that "there is no reason to suppose that the firing was excessive" fourteen killed and two wounded. Mr Martin does not tell us whether the police used buckshots or gunshots. The doctors admit they found the gun was reported to have hit Mr Martin that one of his cases had received 14 gunshots and two others had received 18 gunshots and two others accomplished without excessive firing? The Bardoll Situation. The Governor of Bombay has hurried to Simla to meet I.E. The Viceroy to discuss the situation there.

Some anglo-Indian leaders have called for advising the government to call the military to their assistance, and if this adhere is followed the situation will call for the Indian campaign of non-payment of taxes. Color Line In The West Color Line In The West Edward of The New York Age Editor of the New York Age After a tour of more than four months covering the entire Pacific Coast I am wending my way east- ward again. So far as Negroes in Washington and Oregon are concerned, they suffer from no more prejudice than do Negroes of Connec- ticut and Rhode Island Cali- fornia, however, is becoming more and more anti-Negro, because of the daily influx of white Souther- ers from Texas and other states. Chinese and Japanese, and even Mexicans, draw the color line on Negroes in California. In downtown Los Angeles one cannot get a meal in any restaurant, if black The beautiful bathing beaches of Santa Monica, Long Beach and Re- dondo are also closed to Negroes So far as California is concerned, there is more gold in head than in the heart. California is beautiful, humptuous and brutal, so far as Negroes are concerned. While riding across Arizona and Nevada by bus I stopped in many towns and also in southern Utah. Wherever I stopped I was treated as a curiosity by both young and old. After spending some time in auto-Negro Salt Lake City, I based through Wyoming and was refused service in a town were there was no restaurant that could be found to serve a Negro. And mind you, few Negroes live in Wyoming, but even a Chinese will discriminate against persons of color in this state. I am planning a suit against the bus company which had an agreement with restaurants along their route that all passengers would be served meals. This agreement was hold out to me and other passengers as an inducement to make the trip by bus rather than by train.

C. — Herbert Hoover, Republican nominee for the Presidency of the United States, has gained a strong supporter in Mrs Mary McLeod Bethune, founder and president of the Bethune-Cookman College, of Daytona, Fla. Mrs. Bethune is one of the outstanding women of the colored race in America and has just retired from the presidency of the National Federation of Colored Women's Clubs. She has had the opportunity to study the condition of oppressed people in America and in Europe, having made a special trip to Europe last year for this purpose. In a letter to the Republican headquarters, Mrs Bethune declared: "I have been reading with unabated interest, the various campaign utterances by Herbert Hoover beginning with his speech accepting the nomination. I have noted the harmony of his personal viewpoint with the platform at the Kansas City convention and the traditions of the Republican party. I have noted to certain indifference to purely partisan interests in the nobler desire to administer to the needs of the country at large. I have noted a deliberate subordination of economic and industrial problems to the higher humanitarian needs and moral welfare of the populace. "My first impression grows as this present campaign wears on. I a more and more convinced that Herbert Hoover is the one man above all others in the present race to conserve and to protect humanitarian interests of all electors in population irrespective of race, class or religious creed, as far as a chief executive may exert his persuasive in so doing." his prelegacy in so doing. The growing number of outstanding men and women of the colored race, are coming to the support of Herbert Hoover and Charles Curtis, indicates the high esteem and confidence which Negroes have for and in the Republican nominees.

Buckner, chairman of the New York County Chapter and the Bronx of the American Red Cross, at 598 Madison avenue, said that during the recent appeal for funds for the West Indies hurricane victims, there stemmed many people in New York City as to the duties of the American Red Cross. Mr. Buckner explained that the Red Cross is a permanent organization, chartered by Congress as the nation's official relief agency, and is given certain duties, not the ones that form the must perform. It is not requested but commanded by our government to do certain things. Each year it makes its report to Congress showing that these duties deserve to be carried out. It must "continue and carry on a system of national and international relief in the use of peace and to apply the same in mitigating the suffering caused by pestilence, famine, fire, flood and other great disasters." It "divise and carry on measures for reventing the same." Seek 5,000,000 Members To meet an even larger proportion of disaster relief expenses from general revenues, the Red Cross soon, through its two members, so soon, through its four million members, and 400,000 for New York City alone. This goal for the national membership campaign of the Red Cross represents about four million members in every hundred perous country in the world. The demand for Red Cross services in the past-few years have increased Secretary of Commerce Hoover said "A few years ago I stated that the American people should give the Red Cross a membership of 400,000 expatriates directing the relief experience in the Mississippi Valley confirms my opinion." When great disaster comes, the nation looks to the Red Cross. Then everybody knows what the Red Cross does. Its calls for special relief funds are always met, but the Red Cross carries on steadily day by day and it is to support its many peace-time activities, including an anniversary memorial, the New York City Red Cross asks for and expects to attain its goal of 400,000 members.

At Lafayette Theatre Coming East for the first time in almost two years, the famous Whitman Stisters opened their week's engagement Monday at the Lafayette Theatre with their latest comedy "Hello Dixie Land." Arrayed in an entirely new set of dazzling costumes and against a series of gorgeous new scenic backgrounds, "Hello Dixie Land" was hailed by the audience as the by the audience as the entertainment which Harlem audiences have enjoyed in a long time. The cast of "Hello Dixie Land" numbers 47 entertainers. There is also a ten-piece Jazz band, under the leadership of Troy Snappa. The cast is headed by Bernice Elkins, a tenor, and fine, soprano voice; Dick Campbell, a superb tenor; Sambo Reid and Willie Tootsweet—comedians extraordinary, Leon & Douglass, masters of the Ukelele, Pops & Billy, wonderful juvenile dancers; and Bert and Alice Whitman, the brunette who appear on the stage as the most fetching man-and-woman dancing team. It was hard to judge which of these entertainers. Monday afternoon's audience at the Lafayette theater originally scheduled to go one hour and twenty minutes lasted for two hours and fifteen minutes. Each of the "principal's" was enthusiastically received. The chorus also came in for its share of the generous applause, particularly after the unusually pleasing "Doll Dance." "Hello Dixie Land" created by Mabel Whitman and staged by her with the assistance of her two sisters Bert and Alice. The costumes and scenery were designed and made under the supervision of Miss Esse Whitman. These four sisters have created an entertainment for each member of the family, and they may well see and thoroughly enjoy the photophylla part of the program, includes as the feature, Allan Dwan's production of "Harold Teen."

Mr. Miller has decided to abandon routing of his shows over the T. O. B. A. time, which includes many small houses, and concentrate his efforts and his abilities on the musical comedies and musical comedies for the Lafayette Theatre and the two or three large colored theatres in the East. The present version of the "Brown Shoe Models" was produced primarily for presentation at the Lafayette Theatre although the show will have had two week's preliminaries "breaking in" in Washington and in New York before coming to the Lafayette next Barrington Carter Is Featured At Alhambra It's real acting that Harlem is seeing at the Alhambra Theatre these days "While London Steeps" this week's drama, reveals the life of life in that graet metropolis. Barrington Carter, as "Lazarus," keeper of a cellar dive where thieves hang out, offers a distinct achievement in makeup and acting in Marie and Susie Sutton as his unfortunate victim; Ted Blackman as a pickpocket and Artie Cain as a homeless orphan boy, present vividly types of underworld plays' a wealthy youth and Eloise Bennett a society woman, both gaming much amplitude. Charles Ray is a typical London "bobby," or policeman. The play presents, or suggestion, an emphatic moral lesson. The musical comedy revue "The Speed Limit," is, of course, all fun. Dusty Fletcher is proprietor of a cigar store, but the world's series of movies, including Mason and Julia Moody have a terrible time with a book agent. Jimmie Baskette and Pigmeat have an amusing argument Edna Young and Charles Ray offer a dainty durt; and Amanda Randolph, leading the sixteen girls, learns the a high spot of the program The picture star is Alice Calhoun in "A Part-Time Wife." The Wednesday midnight show will have a number of theatre parties, including one the members of the cast Next week, Andrew S.

Not only have Morris and Greene the producers of this latest success secured the best in the line of white actors, but they have also included many dancers, dancers and fun makers a unit of colored entertainers that is one of the best seen on Brodaway in recent years. This contingent is headed by Miss Maude Russell, well-known in Harlem night clubs and in colored musical plays; Peek-a-Boo Jimmie and his band; Walker and Thompson, said by many to be the best of the ten Ebony Steppers, the last named being a unit of colored dancing girls who have been recruited from the best of all colored singing and dancing girls available.

No more pleasing artist, has brightened the musical comedy stage of today than Miss Russell—either black or white and she is proving just as popular with the Park avenue theatregoer as she is with the musical incidentally she has one of the song hits of the show called, "I've Got A Cookie Jar But No Cookies." Peek-A-Boo Jimmie and his jazzy band also do much to enflenr A Minute* and the white doffed ensemble he watches his* manipulation of the drum sticks. Walker and Thompson bring down the house at every performance with their marvelous dancing while the 10 Ebony Stepmen who ever buck and winged or shook their torso. Lincoln Theatre To Give Screen Tests Commencing on Monday and lasting for five days only, the Lincoln Theatre on 135th street will inaugurate a series of screen tests to find out if any patron of the theater ones to be selected for the million dollar motion picture to be made by one of the leading firms in the United States. The pictures will be shown the following week after they are taken and patrons will have the double satisfaction of seeing movies in action on the silver screen.

Beery and Hatton are, as usual, the round pegs in the square holes, the usual targets for the feud when they think they are landing a soft job. Then they find themselves busier than they have ever been before, dodging bullets. Next week the Lincoln will bring "Habits of 1028" to the house with people. This musical tab will easily hold its own with the best now being offered in these parts. The Heart Of A Tap Dancer A hilting melody brings Bill Robinson, sensational tap dancer in Leslie's "Blackbirds of 1928" to the stage of the Eltinge Theatre every performance. The rat-tat-tat of his moussie is his most humous. His smile is inflexible. He is a thorough showman. And yet he is thorough the tinsel and make-believe he has a heart that outshines even his remarkable tap-dancing, and are some who condescend him to be the greatest tap dance in the world. Born in poverty, Bill Robinson has learned from the struggles of life what encouragement means. He hasn't forgotten a soul who helped him along the path to stardom and now Bill Robinson is repaying those early debts by helping those who debtor or has an unusually difficult time starting started. The field is so limited and so many hustionally gifted men and women try to break into the theatre that many are naturally left stranded because of the lack of opportunity. Most of them are strangers in New York and, faced with desituation, either back home or begin a struggle for existence here that is heirloom. It is here that Bill Robinson figures so prominently. Somehow word comes to him of an actor in straits he. He opens not only his heart, but his pocketbook as he took his hat, but his stardom and his salary runs into four figures and he feels every ambiguous and talented actor of his race is entitled to some of it. And thus the tap dancer who appears to have not a worry in the world cares through the year for his art. He is a grateful artist. Not only that, but he has made himself an employment agency and goes to see manor his race, but a 'philanthropist, as of his charges who he feels are unusually gilted'. It is little wonder then that Helen Robinson bills Bill Robinson, not only one of the greatest artists agents in an effort to place certain well. HEALTH IS HERE By DR M. ALICE ASSERSON the New York Tuberculosis and Health Association. Everyone needs to play regularly. It helps health. Get outdoors for recreation — walking, playing games and other exercise The Harlem Tuberculosis and Health Committee, 202 West 106th Street, New York City, has information on all kinds of health matters available to all who ask. It is Bradshaw 2005. The telephone is Bradshaw 2005. A. & T. College Defeats N. C. State College Winston-Salem—Without the services of Bus Coleman, All American triple threat ace, and Streater, veteran end, A. and T. the Aggie Bulldogs overwhelmingly defeated the North Carolina State College eleven, here by a score of 20 to 0. Coach byarm of A. and T. team 'could have made the sore larger, but he gave, nearly all of his substitute a chance to show their wares. At the beginning of the second half, only two regulars were in the line-up. At this stage of the game, the losers showed 'better' defense and their attack was superior to the T. Lance, A. Champs. Time with later Lane, A. Champs. Time with scoring distance only to lose it on downs. Carter who was playing quarter made several nice gains. It was also he whom the Statists three back for some heavy loss. Captain Lane who las week proved a menace to the Tuskegee Tigers, starred again today, doing all of the passing, punting, a great deal of the running and most of the ground-gaining. The big full back's punts, though not equalled to that of his teammate Coleman, were well executed in the long yards. Lane was responsible for 12 of the points earned by the winners. The first tally of the game came in the first quarters when Lane shot around right end for 15 yards. Foulk who generalized the first string point, in the second quarter, Rayford, the lanky linesman of the Aggies, furnished the spectators with some thrills by intercepting a forward-eyed evading the N. C. would-be-tacklers, finally placing the pipski over the coveted chalked line. In the fourth frame, the Aggies resorted to a versatile attack. Captain Lane elected himself to heave a long pass which was shot into the direction of the right side of the line for the distance of 20 yards, landing into the outstretched hand of Cunningham. The big fellow speared tossed pigskin out of the atmosphere and landed yarded yards before being overloaded by Grimes. At this junction of the fray Lane wiggled and twisted his way for ten yards for the final touchdown of the fray. Patterson, the lanky double decker center, was assigned the duty of attempting to add the extra point which role he performed successfully by executing a placement kick while the ball was being held by Captain Lane. Namingham, Patterson and "Bear" Welling performed in stellar style in the little league, while Vanstory, Busby and Hawkins were shining for State College. Strouds, Grimes and Austin were stars in defeat. The losing combination in the face of a heavier and more experienced defense would often make gains by eluding the would-be A. and T. tacklers. Grimes gave the fans a thrill when he was lit about eight yards behind the line and shook off four tacklers before being finally downed. In the young man Stewart, a ninty half back, Coach Byarm has a fast and heady player. Several times during the game, Stewart tore off end runs, the game 25 and 30 yard gains. The game ended with the ball on North Carolina's 31 yard line. A. and T. College N. C.

FLIT Kills Flies Mosquitoes Other Household Insects Buffalo Republicans from time immemorial have had the right attitude toward the Negro, and Buffalo has always done the big thing for the group. Buffalo Republicans have never shirked their duty toward any of its followers or citizens. However, the year 1928 stands out for the record made by the Erie County Republican County Committee for its work among the colored group. With Elizabeth B. Talbert's appointment by the National Republican Committee, Chairman of the Colored Voters' Division for Buffalo, Erie County Republican County Committee with Mr. Fred A. Bradley, Chairman, Mr. Benjamin C. Kaiser, Executive Secretary and Mrs. Gilbert H. Corbin, Assistant Secretary, immediately gave her desk space in the general office of the Republican Headquarters, 327 Washing-town street, supplied her with a most competent stenographer, Mrs. Adelaide Hamilton Tucker, and has given her every support in putting over a program unheard of before in Buffalo. Three Republican Headquarters in the densely settled districts of the Negro group were established early in September with paid workers. One at ~451 Jefferson avenue, with Mrs. Bessie Walker in charge; one at 171 Clinton street with Mrs. Martha Miller in charge; and one at J. William street with Mrs. Martha Miller. These headquarters are bureaus of information to all groups and voting machines are placed in each that all may learn to operate them. The Erie County Republican County Committee through Mrs. Talbert and Mrs. Beatrice Dixon has used over seventy women to canvass the colored vote, bring out the candidates, and carry out groups coming into Buffalo of their civic and political rights. Erie County Republican County Committee and its chairman, Mr. Fred A. Bradley, have sponsored the following national speakers for the colored group: Hon. Fred R. Moore, Mrs. George S. Williams, Mrs. Addie L. Hunton Mrs. Sarah Patterson, Mrs. Conlin Simmons. Never before have we been in the position to have so much brain and real worth given to us free of charge. Mr. Fred A. Bradley, Chairman, Mrs. Gilbert H. Corbin and Mr. Benjamin Kaiser, Secretaries of the Erie County Committee, have left no 'stone unturned that the program for our group will be successful in responding splendidly, for never before has the group registered in such large numbers and on November 6 the colored vote will show that the Negro is a firm believer in prosperity and a full dimiter pail. Father Dies Following Fight With Stepson An argument regarding his breakfast led to blows being passed between William Lyles; 28, and his step-father, Thomas Lyles, 65 in the kitchen of their home at 201 West 146th street Saturday morning, causing the death of the elderly man. The stepson was held without bail for aArgument in Homicide court when arranged the same day before Magistrate Ewald in Heights Court. The Medical Examiner said death was due to heart failure. Lyles met his mother on the stairway as he came home about 8 a.m. and when he reached the kitchen he said to his stepfather, "Old Mom has a breakfast for me!" The father, "I don't know and don't give a d—" whereupon he struck his stenosis it is reported. Lyles then struck back and the old man fell dead to the floor. He telephoned at once to the Sixteenth precinct police station, saying, "I have just killed my stealthier Democrat, and summoned Dr Scobodas from Columbus Hospital, who pronounced the man dead. Lyles was placed under arrest on a charge of murder. Subsequent examination of the body by the Medical Examination Unit resulted in heart failure, nevertheless. Lyles was compelled to face the Homic Court. Three five-round and one four-round preliminary bouts will precede the double windup of ten-rounders between Eddie Elkins and Lew Kersh and Ponce de Leon and Jimmy Caldaro, impaled for a Saturday night. At Weill, Harlem matchmaker, yesterday decided to raise the limit on the supporting bouts in settling a controversy among the principals, some of whom argued that four rounds were sufficient while others held out for six-round bouts; the five-round will hold out for a knockout, as the boxers are paid $10 a round with the winner receiving the loser's purse for each round the latter refuses to answer the bell. The boys who will meet in the odd-numbered hosts are Leo Daxon vs. Mike Caldaro and Sammy Seiral-vs. Tony Gagliano. Jack Sullivan and Jimmy, Carney are paired in the four-round opener. NOTICE!

That surely is a great choir. Dr. Smith, in his own characteristic way, preached a most appropriate sermon, after which a nice offering was made. We knew the pastorates, the officers and choirs for their services, and their congregations, for their generosity in offerings. Sunday was a beautiful day, and all roads seem to lead toward our new and beautiful edifice of worship. Promptly at 11 o'clock Mine, V. E. Scott, the efficient organist, pick up the notes on the organ which he offered, and past the Study. The choir tried itself at this service, in its choral singing, as well as in its duets and solos. The Misses L. F. and J. A. Booker sang, most swively; a duet, just preceding the morning sermon of his life, on the theme, sermon of the pastorate, preached the Church's sermon. The will be published in pamphlet form, so that all who did not hear it, may read it. At the evening service Mrs. Carrie Jackson, one of, New York's sweetest sopranos, sang until every moment. The pastor, was loud in his praise of the magnificent work of Sister Jackson. The day' ended with great services having been enjoyed a day, nine hours, in bers, one candidate for' baptism, and a very good financial showing. Emanuel A. M. E. Church One having attended services at Emanuel, Sunday, I am sure, will agree that the little acorn as it were is fast growing into a great oak. Wash Nichols the teacher to a capacity house. He used his for text the fourth verse of the twenty third psalm. Rev. Nichols told the story of how David became King of Israel in spite of difficulties, will he be done regardless of man's desires. In his usual manner he made this sermon one from which the oldest and the youngest hearer could gain much. He used his for Sunday School, who Mr. Nelson as the new superintendent, held a most interesting and profitable session. All teachers were at their posts. The Emanuel Forum held its regular session at 4:30. Wm. T. the four, Mr. Nelson the four. He spoke upon the Political situation among Negroes in New York. Our Forum is growing and promises to be second to none of its kind in the city. Come and join us. The next meeting will be Sunday, October 28th, at 4:30 Again Sunday night there was a splendid congregation to hear the pastor who spoke upon 'The Mission of Jesus'. The service was abbreviated. Perhaps the largest organizations in our church are the choirs. Both the senior and junior choirs were out in full Sunday morning. Herbert Allen and Mrs. Mayme Jones deserve great credit for the training of these choirs, respectfully, of the Rev. D. E. H. Cot, secretary of the A. M. E. Missionary Department, will preach at 11 o'clock. Bethel A. M. E. Church Sunday was quarterly meeting day and a large and appreciative audience listened to a wonderful sermon delivered by the Presiding Elder, Rev. A. L. Wilson. There were many accessions. The church school convened superintendent Rolhim deserves to be commended for the growth of this department of the church. 8 p. m., Rev. E. H. Mitchell of Hilburn, N. Y. delivered a splendid sermon. The Quarterly Conference held on Sunday evening, showed that all of the departments of the church are growing and are enjoying a season of prosperity. On next Sunday morning, Dr. Sanders will use as his theme "Is It Wrong For Me to Dance?" At the evening service, The Safety of Those who trust in The Lord. The attendance at the evening services continue to increase, so eager are those who cannot attend the morning service to hear Dr. Sanders. On last Sunday Bishop Young, who has just been appointed as bishop to West Africa, preached a glorious sermon at the morning hour. On day evening, October 8, the secretary of Missions, Dr. E. I. Coit, and the pastor, officers and members of Bethel gave a reception to Bishop Young. There were a number of visiting ministers present, and all joined in wishing the bishop bon voyage.

The office is open to the public for service. Tuesday and Thursday from 3 to 5 p. m. Dr. Gustavus Henderson, chief of staff in charge. St. Martin's Chapel Last Sunday saw a large crowd out at St. Martin; in fact, we enjoyed the largest attendance since the autumn season began, and Rev. Wendell Sermon, presented wonderful sermon, fall of lessons from life, and with an abundance of food for thought. The theme running through the whole discourse was that whatever we attempt to do is the actual or apparent value of the past; ticular work at hand. Many favorable comments were heard of the greatly improved work of the choir and the offerer of the sermon. We have every reason to be proud of the effort and accomplishment they have made. The attender at the services continues to improve and the musical program by the doctorate feature is proving quite an incarnate feature. largely attended, musical festival on Sunday night, night attended and a treat was enjoyed by those present. The vocal and instrumental solos were all well rendered, and we are looking forward to another night of such musical treat. The auspices of the Woman's Guild will be held October 23, to 26, inclusive, and the different auxiliaries of the church are making every effort for a large attendance. There will be a large audience on night. Articles of all descriptions will be on sale and many articles will be raffled, including a cedar chest of linen, a radio lamp, dolls, etc. A hope of hope will this be attended and from the preparations that are being made you will miss a great treat by falling to. visit the bazaar at least one night out of the four. next week the writer intend to visit the Woman's Guild will give a detailed account of the work of the young St. Martinians. Paradise Baptist Church v Sunday morning, October 14, we listened to a wonderful sermon expounded by Rev. A. D. Holmes of Norfolk, Va., acting in the absence of our pastor, Rev. H. W. Stanley. His text was taken from Mark 4:39, "And He Arose and reckoned with the Body." Subject, "The Two Fold Nature of Christ." Rev. Holmes related beautifully the existence of the Divinity of Christ in Heaven, and His-promise to His Father, to give Himself as a sacrifice for our sins. For this reason Jesus came into the world, wrapped humanity around His Divinity and become his companion in the life Jesus beguiled consecration to the work, which He come into the world to accomplish. Rev. Holmes stated fully the various works of Christ on earth, and urged us "To take hold of the life line, for the Pilot stands at the helin to guide us and wind, when cries from' perishing souls come in, across the reefs and rocks of sin." Sunday. evening. Rev. *Holmes delivered another sermon equally as good as the one in the mornings His text was taken from Matthew 6:7. "When.

Adams fired shot and shell into the Christina room. We spend more time trying to get Christina to be straight strained, and more time trying to give hypocrites in the church 'another chance before 'making their exit from earth than we do winning souls. We spend more monies picnics and good times than we do in the propagation of the gospel." The American Legion, guests at the evening service, heard a religious-political sermon. Mr. Adams said that under the present constitution with all its faults the United States had made more physical progress than any country in the world. To put it in power a northern democrat who thinks lightly of that constitution and intends to strike from it the 18th amendment but opens the way for a southern democrat in a few to be in power and strike from it the 15th and 15th amendments and seal the Negro Negro For said he, the 18th amendment has been as successful in its operatism as the other two. Monday night the champion basketball and baseball players of the Sunday school met in a "get-together."

Watch for Our Street Parade on The Day of The Ball AL BROWN NAMED AS BANTAM WEIGHT CHAMP BY N. B. A. National Boxing Experts Name Negro As Best In His Division After four years fighting and waiting for the opportunity to engage in a championship bout, Al Brown, Harleen bantamweight, was given the title on Monday without a fight. The National Boxing Association's championship committee adopted a list of champions submitted by Thomas E. Donohue, president, at a meeting in Toronto Monday. Brown's quest for the title led him from Panama to New York and from New York to Paris, where he engaged in some twenty bouts and became an idol among the French people. He returned home only last summer and had just begun another campaign for the title when the N.B. A took action, recognizing him as the title holder. Although the New York State Boxing Commission recognizes no title holder in the bantamweight division, it is expected that the recog- that has come to Brown is the national body will force recognition by this and other states. Brown is something of a freak among boxers. He is nearly six feet tall but, weights around 122 pounds. Because of his height and reach, he has a big advantage over other fighters of his weight and this advantage, with his boxing skill, has caused him to be dodged by most of the white fighters. He has often been forced to meet much heavier fighters in order to get enough fights to make a living. His boxing career in New York began under the McMahon brothers at the old Commonwealth Club. The championship committee of the National Boxing Association named Andre Routis of France as featherweight champion, Sammy Mandell, lightweight champion, Joe Dundee, welterweight champion; Micky Walker, middleweight champion; Frankie Genaro, flyweight champion; Al Brown, bantamweight champion and suggested that Jack Delaney be considered king of the light heavyweights in the event that Tommy Loughran forks the 175 pound class for the heavyweight division. An elimination was suggested among the F. B. S.

Washington, D. C.—Howard took the first game of the season in their own stadium Saturday afternoon from Johnson C. Smith, with a score of 19 to 6. The visitors, though weak in attack, presented a surprise defense. Bojol, number 65, in left guard was a thorn in the Bison's flesh. Breaking through Howard's line at will he smeared many formations and made fully two-thirds of the tackles for his team. Coach West started his second team and kept in for nearly the entire first quarter, in spite of a score of 6 to 0 against them. After Jack young his off tackle for a gain of thirty yards and a penalty of 15 yards, Payne's pass to Harris was intercepted by Henry, Smith's right tackle, on his own 21 yard line, through a clear field he run 79 yards for a touchdown. In the second quarter, with their backs to the wall, Williams punted for Smith to his 35 yard line, where the ball was taken by Marshall and carted through a broken field for a touchdown.

The pass from Ross to Coles placed the Fall on J C. Smith's 11 yard line, where Ross wont through center for the final score. The visitors held Howard scoreless in the 4th quarter.

CLARKE Lawrenceville, Va.—Hampton add the second victory in her drive for the C. I. A. A championship by defeating the fighting St Paul Tigers on Russel. Field under an Indian summer sun Saturday. Hampton's heavy fast team could not get to together in the early stage of the game and St Paul as a surprise, held them scoreless for the whole of the first quarter. Twice during that burning hot quarter the Hampton backs ripped and tore through St Paul's line to get within three yards of the goal out to be held for downs by such stout hearts as Williamson's and Moore's. Hampton soon found herself during the second quarter and made two touchdowns in quick succession. The first touchdown came after about five minutes of play in the second quarter. Jones broke through the line for the second count after much driving and line plunging by the ever fast foursome. Baker, Guess, Jones and Bird, Baker kicked for the extra point. The second followed in short or when a Baker to Bird pass was completed. St. Paul, however, was not without a threat. Murphy, the Tigers game little quarterback completed a triple pass that gained considerable advantage. A second THE NEW YORK AGE Tuskegee Institute, Ala.—For the first time this season the Tuskegee Tigers struck their stride of former years and defeated the Florida A and M. College eleven 46 to 0 in the Alumni Bowl here Saturday afternoon. The defeat administered the Florida boys broke the tie jinx which has followed the Crimson eleven in the two previous games of the season,—the first with Knoxville College, played in the Bowl, and the second with the Bulldogs of the A and T. College, which drew 7,000 spectators to the Stadium in Greensboro on October 6. A twenty-yard off-tackle run by Stevenson early in the game started the scoring. A placement kick from his toe added the extra point. Receiving a twenty-yard pass from Harrison few minutes later this same Stevenson ran, thirty yards for the second touchdown. Shanklin, diminutive half-back, furnished the thriller of the game, when he broke through the Florida defense and carried the ball for 60 yards and a touchdown. In the closing minutes of the game Champion, Fuskegee center, blocked a punt and fell on it behind the goal line for a touchdown. The final score came as a result of a pass, Stevenson to Harrison, who carried it over the line Only once did the visitors threaten to score and that was in the third quarter when Beasley recovered a tumble on Florida's five yard line and ran the length of the field, only to be called back for running out of bounds on the 45 yard line. The Florida team is under the tiltage of F. A. Byrd, former brilliant gridron backfield ace of Lincoln University, and his men, though light, showed the result of careful training and a splendid knowledge of the game. The passing and receiving of the Tallahassee team was good and several well directed passes failed of successful completion. The punting was excellently done by Beasley, Ellby and Anderson. Wilkins, fullback who payed the entire time was the battering ram for the visitors and did brilliant work for his team. The Tigers worked with splendid coordination and showed promise of developing an attack that will be hard to stop Duncan and Robinson, on the extremities, are well placed. They get down the field without delay and like the Northwest mounted, "get their man" Stevenson's wizardry is still a puzzle. Harrison carried the ball several times for yardage, also Joynier. Others on the Tuskegee team whose work stood out were Robinson, captain, Myers, Britton, Woolridge, Champion, who is covering center creditably, Hockot, and L. Walker, reservemen within three yards of Hampton's goal line. Fate was unkind and line was called for the first half. The Seasiders secured two touchdowns in the second and third quarters. Both of them were made by George Clarke, a substitute full back. Pure line driving for the most part mixed with a few passes accounted for most of the gains made by the Seasiders. Hunter, in tackle, Gates in center, McGowan on end and Hill in guard, were towers of strength for Hampton's forward wall.

MATS WEDDING SALE EXTRA MIDNITE SNOW MOVIE Prior to his departure on Friday, October 12, for location headquarters in Memphis, King Vidor announced selections of colored players for his new picture, "Hallalujah," which will go into production next week. The two principal parts in the new film will be given to Daniel Haynes, who has been appearing in "Show Boat," and Honey Brown, star singer and dancer of the Harlem Club, Haynes will be seen as Zeke, rugged young Negro who is the chief protagonist of the Vidor story, and Miss Brown will have the part of Chick, a sepia siren. The incense role of the picture will be played by Victoria Spence, who has appeared in a number of local night clubs and has also made a large number of phonograph re- cordings. Everett McGarrity, seventeen year-old Chicago colored boy, was signed by Vidor on the way East when the director spotted him in the orchestra of a Chicago theatre and suggested a screen test. He will have the second male lead in the new film. Definite decisions have not yet been made about the other two chief roles—those of the father and mother of Zeke. Daniel Haynes first attracted the attention of New York theatregoers when he stepped at the last minute into a role in "The Bottom of the Cup" which illness forced Charles Gulpin to vacate. He is a graduate of Morris Brown University in Atlanta, has a powerful physique and a rich baritone voice, and played for a long time in the colored show, "Kang Tang." Honey Brown, whom Vidor believes to be an unusual screen find, like Haynes has had no previous picture experience. When a stenographer in Chicago, she lost her job because the boss found her practicing dance steps during the noon hour. She is twenty-one years old and played in the colored musical piece, "Keep Shufflin'." Mme. Fannie Belle DeKnight, well known as a dramatic reader and elocutionist, has also been selected for an important role in the picture. Mr. Vidor had been looking, for someone to play the part of an old-time southern "mammys." He had not expected to find someone to fill this part in New York but when he saw Mme DeKnight he said she was an ideal person for this part, and induced her to accept it.

ABYSSINIAN CHURCH PAPER EDITOR REBUKES INTOLERANCE ON PART OF OBJECTOR TO GIVING BIBLICAL DRAMA The intolerance of ignorance is never more clearly emphasized than in an incident occurring last week in connection with the presentation at Abyssinian Baptist Church, the Rev. Dr. A. Clayton Powell, pastor, of the Bible story of Abrahman, his wife, Sarah; Sarah's handmaiden, Hagar, and Ishmael, the son of Abraham and Ishmael, as given by the Ruth Ellis Players, headed by Ruth Ellis, young dramatic reader, who has formed a company for the special showing in churches of Bible stories in dramatic form. The play, "Ishmael," as it is titled, has been given by Miss Ellis and her supporting company in several of the churches of Greater New York, and in most instances has been given on Sunday afternoons or evenings, to large congregations and to the instructive satisfaction of pastors, officers and parishioners, without any question of unfitness either in contents or manner of showing. But when Dr. Powell announced from his pulpit one Sunday that "Ishmael" would be given in his church on the following Sunday evening, and that it would constitute the regular evening service, one of the faithful members, D. A. Walker of 214 West 148th street, was stirred to the point of protesting in a letter addressed to Dr. Powell, couched in the following words: "Dear Pastor: In writing this letter I do not claim any divine inspiration, as many of your correspondents do, I am simply making some personal inquiries. "In making announcements Sunday evening, you said among other things that the regular Sunday evening services next Sunday would be supplanted by a Bible drama entitled 'Ishmael.'" "Why on Sunday c... instead of some evening during the week? I fail to see the wisdom of the change. Please explain. Maybe I am dull of understanding. Are the members asking for a diversion? If so they should visit other churches where the spiritual tide is not so high. Suppose some poor, hungry soul comes in that evening looking for food and goes away saying, 'I asked them for bread and they gave me a stone. I asked them for fish and they gave me a scorpion.'" "As a member in good and regular standing, I wish to register my protest to this change. Your friend and brother, "D. A. WALKER" Mr. Walker, according to information received, is a government employee, attached to the Immigration Bureau and located at Ellis Island, the port of entry for all newcomers from alien shores. The pastor, Dr. Powell, handed the letter to the editor of the church's official publication, "The Advance," Nelson M. Dixon, to be answered. Mr. Dixon, in The Advance of October 13, uses the following language in commenting on Mr. Walker's letter: AN INQUIRY AND A PROTEST "As the subject of this paper indicates, the writer's letter begins with an inquiry and ends with a protest. In the beginning he is an humble seeker after... in the end he is a rather stern protestant." "But that's his right, 'as a member in good and regular standing.' In the very nature of the case, however, we must presume that he has never seen th drama, 'Ishmael,' for if he had seen it, as intelligent as he is, he never could have registered his protest against it. "He reminds us very much of the old deacon who had never seen an organ. When told that one was to be installed in his church, he replied, 'Iaint never seen one of them critters, but I'm agit it.' "Since we have given our opinion of the play in another paper on this page, we shall not repeat it here. It remains only to say that if the way 'Ishmael' was interpreted was not spiritual food—and we suppose that is what the writer meant by food—then we do not know it. There was nothing flippant about it; the story was taken from the Bible; it has in it immeasurable moral values, and it is deeply spiritual. It did not, to be sure, make people shout, but it did make them think. To us it seems that the writer of the letter is affected with a false notion of this drama. He seems to think that Sunday night is not a fit time to give it. The truth is Sunday night is the most fit time. It was designed for that time. And isn't it an exhibition of a fierce spirit of intolerance to disagree with a thing we have not taken the time to see?" And then, as a further exposition of Abyssiman's official position on the question of whether or not the presentation of a Biblical drama in lieu of the regular evening service is a befitting service or not, Editor Dixion, or an assistant, follows the reply to Mr. Walker with the following critical review of "Ishmael" as presented in the church: More than just entertainment, more than diversion was the presentation of "Ishmael" by Miss Ruth Ellis and her cast. It was a reenactment of the melodramatic scenes of a bygone age. Out of the tomb Abraham, the father of the faithful, came and lived and breathed in Mr. James Moseley. And into his ears Mrs Marion Wallace, as Sarah, poured out again the pathetic story of a disappointed and barren wife. And around these two, Sarah and Abraham, the chosen of God to become predecessors of a great and innumerable race, the plot of "Ishmael" is woven. It is the story of love, hate, jealousy, craftiness and alas, a beautiful trust in God. It is also a peep into the mysterious and fathomless mind of God. Why Hagar should be driven out by command of God is hardly answered by making of her seed a race of detestable men. As Hagar Miss Ellis was wonderful. It is really, difficult to say whether she was best hurling at the weak and vasealing Abraham biting sarcasm and invectives or as a mother, tender, fascinating and with an utter abandonment to the supreme passion of her life, love for Abraham. She was better than she was at St. Mark's Church. The whole cast, in fact, was better. Mrs. Wallace, Mr. Moseley, Mr. Daniels and young Chisholm, all made a strong cast. We feel almost humiliated to admit it, but since it is the truth we must. Abyssinians do not know when to laugh. There is absolutely nothing in "Ishmael" that appeals to humor. And yet our people laughed as if it were funny. To laugh at the wrong time is to sell one's humor cheaply. Martin-Smith Music School Incorporated 139 WEST 138th STREET New York, N. Y.

WHITE THELMA BRUNSON'S PIANO PUPILS IN FOURTH ANNUAL RECITAL WITH LARGE AUDIENCE PRESENT AT RENAISSANCE For the fourth consecutive year, Thelma E. Brunson, who conducts a music studio at 287. Edgecombe avenue, presented the youngsters under her instruction in their annual recital; on Friday evening, October 12. This year, the program was given at the Renaissance Casino, and even this spacious auditorium was taxed to accommodate the host of relatives, friends and well-wishers who occupied every available seat, with many standing, both on the main floor and in the rear of the balcony boxes. Miss Brunson is not only a splendid pianist, but she is also an honor graduate of the Guilmant Organ School, having specialized on the organ. She is continuing her organ work, under Willard I. Nevins, F. A. G. D., assistant to Dr. W. C. Carl, head of the school, for the attainment of her degree. Mr. Nevins is organist for the Fourth Presbyterian Church. At the same time she is continuing her piano studies at the Virgil Piano Conservatory. This year, Miss Brunson had a class of 106 aspirants to musical development, including one who died during the past year, and of this number, thirty-three were individual exemplars in this recital of Miss Brunson's ability as a teacher. A children's class, composed of eleven pupils, ranging in age from 6 to 10 years, all girls save one, Joseph Smith, who wins special mention because of being the sole male representatives, gave an exhibition of interest through the fine promise shown. While of variable merit, there were instances which indicated future possibilities of moment. Their offerings comprised most of Part I, with more advanced pupils being presented in Part II. There is no place for critical analysis in writing of the musical renditions of a group of pupils, all of whom, with possibly one exception, are apparently still in their teens. It will not be invidious, however, to mention the final student offering, when Irene Cheesman, who is 20, played with good technic and with some degree of interpretative intelligence, Chopin's Scherzo in B Flat Minor. The guest artist of the evening was Jacob Lowe, who js, I believe, bantone soloist in the choir of St.Mark's M. E. Church. And later in the evening, Miss Brunson, in announcing that she would make her debut as a manager of other concerts than her own by presenting Mr. Lowe in a formal recital sometime in the coming-spring, took occasion to cozy confess that are that time she would probably be bearing Mr. Lowe's name. Your friend and brother, "D according to information received, reed to the Immigration Bureau and of entry for all newcomers from alie Dr. Powell, handed the letter to publication, "The Advance," Nelson Dixon, in The Advance of October 13 commenting on Mr. Walker's letter: There was a burst of unusually sympathetic applause when the audience grazed the meaning of the young woman's words. And this was intensified when she led the blishing bridegroom-to-be to the platform to make his bow of acknowledgement. As to Mr. Lowe's singing, one cannot be quite so charitable. Sometimes ago, in this column's comment, it was suggested that with serious study Mr. Lowe would probably develop into a firstrate singer, and Mr. Lowe said at the time that it was his purpose to pursue that course. In his work on this occasion, the singer gave evidence of having done some studying, but either it was not serious or this reviewer was mistaken as to the singer's latent possibilities. AN INQUIRY AND A PROTEST object of this Paper indicates, the writer and ends with a protest. In the be writer it is man; in the end he is a man. This right, 'as a member in good and care of the case, however, we must presume, "Ishmael," for if he had seen it, could have registered his protest againt very much of the old deacon whom told that one was to be installed but never seen one of the critters, but we have given our opinion of the play in all not repeat it here. It remains or was interpreted not spiritual for it the writer meant by food—then we bring flippant about it; the story was immeasurable moral values, and it is sure, make people shout, but it did that the writer of the letter is affected aa. He seems to think that Sunday The truth is Sunday night is the time that time. And isn't an exhibit once to disagree with a thing we have a further exposition of Assyssian's of whether or not the presentation of regular evening service is a befitting or an assistant, follows the reply to a technical review of "Ishmael" as present The voice is uneven in texture, lacking in color, and is produced with a varied emission that, smooth enough in the mezzo voice, issues with explosive spurts in the more demonstrative passages. And this symmetry was but emphasized by the character of his vocal offerings. For he sang first that delicate air of Schubert's, "Who is Sylvia?" following if with a rollicking Russian song of glee, the "Yeoman" Wedding Song," by Poniatowski. Their contrasting elements were entirely lost in the singer's interpretation. The singer would be benefitted if he gave attention to developing a legato, to moderating his tone emissions and to cultivating an evenness of utterance. And, too, there is needed a greater clarity of utterance—in spite of the evident effort toward a clean-cut enunciation. M. Lowe's second group comprised "By the waters of Minnetonka" by Liaurance and Goundn's "Dio possente di aor" ("Even brave heart") from the "Faust" opera, sung in Italian. The accompaniments were played by Lorenzo Dyer. Miss Minnie Brown, herself an artist of no mean attainment, soprano soloist in St. Mark's Church choir, made a felicitous and appropriate little speech in awarding prizes and honors to the following pupils, who had done meritorious work during the past year: For excellent work in theory—Doris Roche, William Steinney.

At conclusion of the program, the stage was a veritable floral bouquet, each little miss having been the recipient of from one to four flower creations, tanging from simple bouquets to elaborate pieces standing higher than some of the recipients. The first program of the Artist Recital Course, Series 1928-29, First Semester, offered by Clarence Cameron White, director of music at West Virginia Collegiate Institute, was given by Nell Hunter, soprano, of Durham, N. C., who studied singing in New York City for several seasons. Prof. Phillips was at the piano, and violin obligates were played by Prof. Ferrell. Mrs. Hunter offered a program of varied interest, in English, Italian and French, sacred and secular, including an operatic aria, "I'll dwell, dwell bourn" ("He is kind, he is good") from Massenet's "Heri-dade"; in French; "Caro mio ben" ("Canst thou believe") by Giordano, in Italian; Mozart's "Allaeljuft"; Tachikowsky's "Why?" the Straus's "Serenade"; Gounod's "Ave Maria"; a number of English songs—Ah, Love! but a day" by Beach; "The two roses" by Ban-tock; "Innovation to the Sun God" by Lieurance; "Hindoo Song" by Bemberg, and "Joy" by Winter Watts; and Spirituals—"Calvary" by Johnson and "Bye and bye" by Burleigh. HISTORIANS TO FEATURE NEGRO MUSIC A grand musical festival to interpret Negro music is to be an important feature of the annual meeting of the Association for the study of Negro Life and History in St. Louis from October 21 to 25.

HUBERT Count Keyserling, widely known author, and traveler, said in a recent visit to "America," "The two contributions of America to world culture are Professor Dewey and Negro Jazz!" Rusia was host to both this summer. Negro Spirituals were there. At a reception tendered us by the Tolstoian Society in Moscow, where the Russians, after singing their folk songs, asked the Americans to respond, it was a comedy of errors to hear those, Georgians, Virginians and Kentuckians singing Negro Spirituals as the only folk music fit to render, and to see that No. 100 was the University of Virginia dance the Charleston as the typical American dance was refreshing. It was my good fortune to join a group of serious minded Americans including students, teachers and physicians, from all parts of the states ben upon you with the states we visited the Leningrad, Moscow, Kiev, and many peasant villages; inspected schools, churches, monasteries, museums, hospitals, sanitilums, factories, theaters, 'worker's clubs, courts, prisons and workers homes. Standing in front of the Kremlin, Moscow, we met a minister Party in bold letters across the main building—'The Revolution is like a cyclone sweeping everything in its path.' I asked Professor Dewey what his opinion was of Russia after three months stay. "Thus far," said he, "my boy is so strong," he replied. This seems the verdict of most students of New Russia. In fact Russia is itself in a whirl—a state flux and transition. On entering Moscow, everywhere there is evidence of poverty, or rather the absence of luxury: so silk dresses, uncreased trousers, there and there beggars in rags. One is prompted to agree with the casual tourist and capitalistic newspapers of America and England that Russia is "going to the dogs." But one must not be too nervous. We live in a service opinion until you have seen the real heart of Russia." Visit the factories. See them at work. Join them at tennis, the theatre, discuss, dine and dance with them, and seriously inquire what is going on in Russia. Immediately you get a different story. Russia is the largest continuous domain in the world, being about 6.4 of the world's total surface. The TSA (the United States Air Force) and Soviet Republics is made up of six republics and comprises over one hundred nationalities. It is the only State base, not on bourgeois principles of private property, but on principles of the good health, and is thus distinguished from all other states in the world. The primary object of the union was, "The autonomy of the individual and the voluntary union of the farmers," and the ant farmers owned 50 per cent of the land; today about 98 per cent. Lands formerly operated and owned by the crown, the nobility and the landowners, are divided among the peasants. The Russian believes that "I land like air and water is the gift of God, only he who applies his labor to it, it, each according to his needs." Russia is today the world's greatest social laboratory. The gradual transformation or shift from mercenary interests to things cultural, is perhaps the world's most important aspect of the Soviet's; "All for one and one for all" is the slogan. Men are renouncing wealth for what are termed the higher possessions. All real property, including stores and houses in the cities, is owned and operated by the people who before the Revolution, lived in eight rooms, now live in two and three, and they seem to enjoy it. Rents are apportioned according to one's wages. Ask them if this does not work a hard. The reply is, "A disadvantage of people of higher education is occupy more space than needed, when families of eight and ten are living in crowded quarters?" 1491 Each factory has its health committee and elite. "Physical examinations" are "given periodically. Workers are transferred from factory to factory for increased production; for healthier and happier workers. Everything is done to fit the "worker" to his job. They are sent to over-night and week end sanitariums for rest cures; not only upon request, but when a physical examination shows that such is necessary. Every group of workers is instructed over forty in Moscow divided into various units where tennis, basketball, dance halls, theaters, swimming pools, etc., are provided. Daily educational excursions to numerous libraries for other centers are provided to workers under trained supervisors. Prisons are conducted, not for revengeful punishment, but as a means of correction and improvement. Near Moorcow is the colony for the socially dangerous. Here young men and women from 16 to 25 work and play in perfect liberty. No convoys, no guards. When the convoy was given the wards were simply given the address and railroad fare and allowed to go alone unescorted. Discipline becomes largely a matter of offering advice and planning a program colony with full self-government. The sore caused by years of civil strife is healing slowly. When you point to its beggars (many of whom include former bourgeois who refuse to work) you are told to help them for the youth." With 145,000,000 people having their minds and energies directed, not to the acquisition of wealth; but to a cultivation of the fiter arts; with the very nature of its government driving out selfishness and stimulating creativity; and conclude that he is a leaven that seems destined to spread throughout the world. Russia welcomes trained Negroes. There we found Attorney William Paterson of Harlem, one of the secretaries in the Soil Society, who is making himself felt. One of the most imposing statues in Moscow visited constantly by tourists is that of Pushkin, the Negro author, recognized as one of the world's greatest writers, but seldom thought of as a Negro. Perhaps no land offers just now a more virgin field and a more beautiful landscape educated Negro to share in the building of a great empire with assurance that his efforts will be appreciated and rewarded. Marriage and Divorce Those who are experiencing difficulty in getting separated from their life companions may look with hope to Russia. We spent one morning in the marriage and divorce courts and during that time witnessed eleven divorces and many miscarriages. It is all so very simple. You take your seat at a desk. The clerk hands you a blankly more complicated than our applications forms for a 'driver's license. When the questions are answered and your name is signed the clerk will ask you if you want a husband or wife, as the case may be. If the answer is yes, a postal card does the trick. One young couple who appeared together could not agree on custody of child. Each wanted it. It took only a few minutes to effect a compromise, the father agreeing for the mother to the one and contribute to the care of the child. But he is married he can under no circumstances be divorced under three months. He must live at least this long with his wife. Roligion Russia's about-facing on religious worship offers much food for thought to those of us who insist on devoting so large a part of our hard earned cash to elaborate the story of our nation for Revolution, hordes of wealth were poured into church buildings, monasteries and cathedrals. In Moscow alone, there are nearly two thousand churches. As one enter Moscow, these golden domes stand in bold relief making a picture of the city's splendid brilliant as when first built; some as early as the Sixteenth Century—great monuments to superstition, fear and suffering, built out of the blood money extolled by the "social blood-suckers." The priests take the role of their entry into heaven. We visited Sergius, about fifty miles from Moscow—so named for St. Sergius, founder of this huge monastery, now converted into a monastery church. Here, hundreds of monks and over ten thousand servants of the monastery were housed. Sergius became a mecca. It was to Russians what Jerusalem was to the Jews. Here, hundreds of monks and a visit to the Holy City. Rich and poor alike came, bringing their offerings of gold and precious jewels. They; were taught that the Saint was incorruptible both in body and spirit, and that he was pieded up the temple with enough of his supposed forehead exposed to permit these pilgrims to kiss his brow. This practice persisted until the Revolution. One of the first acts of the Soviet Government was the corrupterly body of Sergius and other Saints were exhumed and photographed. Pictures were sent throughout Russia, through the press and schools showing how the body had been bribed. In many of these cases were found the bones of dogs. The result of this exposure was a complete overthrow of religious fanaticism. Many churches are being converted into sanitariums, museums, and workers' clubs. In Missouri alone, workers' clubs have changed hands. They are being made to serve the people every hour in the day. A striking example of how complete has been this reversal was seen in one of the converted castles visited. In the city of St. Louis, many of five lived here with over one hundred servants and caretakers. Today it has five caretakers who keep the place in order for over one hundred workers who use it as PAGE SEVEN Today in nearly every home, instead of the icon, you find a Lenin corner draped off. I doubt that any man at any time has ever been more idolized. Leninism is the new religion. It symbolizes the ideals of new Russia. Daily the peasant pays his vows at the shrine of Lenin, who fought the battles of the Russian Revolution in his glory for himself and a Dive of all Russia, insisted on wearing hobbed-nailed boots and ill-fitting clothes; though he ruled from the Kremlin of the Czar, he was oblivious to his clothes and the Czar's incarnation. His use of unselfishness, simplicity and self-denial have permeated all Russia. 1. .. Housing All urban property is nationalized; is owned and operated by the government under the Commissariat of Housing. Rents range from $50 to $150 a spite of her meagre capital. Russians is engaged in a gigantic building program. In Moscow, we visit twenty-two cooperative apartment houses, recently completed, which are a central building for people. There is a central building in Kartagenerkind, covering two entire floors, a cooperative laundry and stores. The average apartment consists of two rooms, with kitchen, bath shared with another family. It has been raised over a period of 44 years, when the apartment is fully palatial. The owner or relatives may occupy it during their lives, but cannot sell nor lease for profit. The apartment is visited by Vienna and Munich, while excellent, do not surpass these. Perhaps the most admirable thing about the Soviet Regime is that it has brought necessities within the reach of the workers, within the reach of the ordinary essentials are close and obtain the various markets and are cheap. Luxuries, such as jewelry, even souvenirs, are almost impossible to buy. A $1 shirt in New York may cost $10 in Moscow, while the cost of an ordinary workman's jacket or overalls will vary but little. A dress suit, a derby or fedora hat is practically unknown. Everybody body goes barheaded. (Fancy up New Yorkers carting our dinner suits through Russia.) They disregard the fashion and convention of the world, styles are dismissed with a grace and assurance that startles one. Hear those Russian girls yonder, asking that American lady if she really feels comfortable in those "funny looking silk hose." No Russia's interest is not in new clothes. New ideas are what she needs. Our clothes are all so utterly different from what we are accustomed to in capitalistic America that we stand amazed, agast. Night Life and Crime This new spirit is manifesting itself in various directions. It is felt everywhere one goes. There are no night clubs. The restaurant is cultural and metropolis. The streets are dark, but there is very little crime. Simplicity and economy are everywhere. The maximum salary of government officials is $112.50 per month. In the restaurant the waiter hands you a cup of coffee. In the ordinary envelope. On one of the first acts of the Bolshevik authorities was to drop five letters off the alphabet. Those long Russian names are being abbreviated. It is quite the custom to name child-children every event in history such as "25th of October" and "Revolutio." Health Before the Revolution, competent medical care was beyond the reach of the peasants and workers. Hygiene lecturers were arrested. Medical institutions were "fired" doctors. Free maternity care was unhired of. Icons and superstitions played a large part in treatment of the sick. Now there is free medical care, training of doctors, are all linked with industry. We are a high government official. "You cannot appreciate what we are doing unless you know something of our plans for the future. Our five-year electrification program, for instance, equals that of any country, of our time." In the sweeping away of the old social and economic system there came into power those who least expected. The new government at the outset was as severe as that of the Char. But intolerance is born of the new government not strong enough to take chances. Those who rocked the boat were severally disciplined and at times bifreed overboard. In this intense transition struggle many chickens and goldfish died in egg sacrifice. Some of them men were thus slain or exiled as "counter revolutionists." With all this governmental regulation and "interference" there is, notwithstanding, a surprising freedom everywhere. The schools and universities all things have become new. Etiquette and moral codes do not follow as a matter of course, because one's forebears thought that way: Even the children do their own thinking and make their own rules. They accept no convention with respect to it open and studying it carefully from a utilitarian standpoint. N. Agnoy, in his "Diary of a Communist Schoolboy," tells of a pupils' council, that after a spirited meeting decided that there was no reason why they should remove a teacher from lecture or lecture hall; or greet their teacher at the beginning of each day's session. To say "good morning," perchance, one was feeling out of sorts, constituted hypocrisy, and hypocrisy was something worthy only of capitalists. Russia marks a new era in the world's history. A great laboratory with fertilizing material for a new epoch. For ten years this new government has stood the test. It first European nation to stabilize. It leaders declare it as unthinkable that she will ever revert to the old regime as the unscrambling of an egg. The results of this experiment, whether positive or negative, must be a great contribution. INTERESTING ITEMS GLEANED - BY THE AGE CORRESPONDENTS 2° BIGHT NEW.

MOGANS Pullman Porters and The Coming Presidential Election There is no way of telling how a majority of the members of the Pullman porters group throughout the country will vote in the coming Presidential election. In this group there are approximately 2,000 members, 90 per cent of which are voters. It is fair to surmise, however, that most of the older members will vote as they have always voted—Republican but no such statement dares be made regarding how the younger members of the group will vote. Like most of the older heads among the race, most of the old time porters will be found in the Republican column on election day, although it might be said that this will come more from habit than from feelings of fealty to the party. But, the young porters, like other young Negroes, haven't acquired the Republican habit, and all you have to do to find just what they think of the habit among their sires is to get in conversation with them. As a matter of fact, most of the young porters with whom the writer has talked are decidedly in favor of the Democratic nominee for President, and they offer concrete reasons why, they are. Moreover, these reasons contain argument that can not well be controverted regarding the Republican Party and the Negro. Of course, you can bring up the old argument that of the many evils the Republican side offers the lesser ones, but being youthful and optimistic, they bowl that over as being "old stuff". The following are some of the reasons these young voters advance why they are going to vote for the Democratic candidate this election. "I am going to vote for Gov. Smith in this election," said one young porter, "although I have always voted Republican since I have been voting, because it is a known fact that he has no sympathy nor affiliation with the Ku Klux Klan. I consider the Klan the worst menace to the country and the greatest foe of the Negro that America has tolerated since the days that my father, now speaks of as being slaves days. Furthermore, why should I vote for a man who goes down into the heart of the nest of these human vipers and tells them that he admires the kind of virus that they inject into American life? Gov. Smith may not have any love for the Negro, but it's a sure thing that he has none for the Ku Klux Klan. For that reason, and that alone, I shall vote for him." Another youthful porter, who is rather sophisticated for one of his years, and who is voting for the first time this year, allowed, "Wha's the diff between the two parties when it comes to our people?" Here is this guy Moses, who is supposed to be one of the big moguls in the Republican party, making a crack about a Negro dictating letters to a white typist. That sounds bad coming from a man who, if Hoover is elected, will most likely be one of his cabinet officers. That crack alone proves that the man suffers from colorphobia, for even if he was heckled at that meeting, if the disease hadn't been in his system, some other retort would have come to his mind. "An affected body sometimes shows its symptoms through the tongue. That's the way the doctors used to diagnose the ills of the sick when I was a stripling down South. The first thing they would say was, "poke out your tongue." This man Moses has poked out his tongue, and for poking out, here is one Negro's vote which Mr. Hoover has lost." Here are the reasons of still another of these young voters as to why he will vote Democratic in the coming election, and the basis for them are substantial when viewed from what happened to the porters under Democratic administration. Said this porter, when asked as to how he will vote in November, "Why, for Al Smith, of course." "Don't you know," ventured the writer, "that it is said that in the event the Democrats win that the country will suffer a financial depression, and, if that results, the reaction will affect not only big business, but will extend even to you, a Pullman porter?" "Bushwa," replied the young man; "tell that to some of the old porters, they eat up that sort of bunk. Why, it was during the last Democratic administration that the porters got the biggest salary raise that they have ever received at one time. Of course the boost was only the crumbs from the railroad men's wage table, and the pay less wasn't spread with them in mind, but the railroad wage commission, which Mr. McAdoo appointed to investigate the wages of all railroad workers took notice of the Pullman porters and included them in its investigation, with the result that they, too, shared in the raise of wages. "Oh, yes, I understand all about the South and the Democrat I came from down there. It has been my experience that the crackers will do just as they please to Negroes, no matter which party is in power. Getting back to what happened to Negroes in the railroad service under the Wilson regime, it should not, be forgotten that it was done that regime that the Southern railroads were made to raise the wages of Negro firemen on a par with that of white firemen. McAdoo said they were doing the same work and by all rights were entitled to the same pay. Now mention one of these soft-soaping Republican politicians who would have been as fair as that? "Every one can vote as he chooses, but for myself I am thoroughly sick of hearing Negroes argue in favor of Republicanism as it is applied to our race. I do not contend that the Democratic party will be any better to us, but it surely can't be any worse. Then, who can tell, it might help us to split our vote this year." Expressions similar to these are heard on all sides among the younger group of Pullman porters, and they lead one to the conclusion that in the intentions of the young Pullman porters are an augury of how other young Negroes will vote this year; the solid Negro vote will be badly gashed, if nothing else, in this coming election. The Ladies Auxiliary of the Pullman Porters' Club will begin the season's activities of this club by giving a supper"dance at the organization's rooms, 105 West 136th street, on Friday evening, October 26. This affair will mark the resumption of "Ladies Evenings," which were such enjoyable events with the members last winter. During the hours of the supper and dance, which will begin at 9 o'clock, the regular business of the club will be discontinued. The officers of the auxiliary are as follows: Mrs. A. Lee, president; Miss H. Pinckard, secretary; Mrs F. Johns, recording secretary; Mrs. C. Ashe, vice president; Mrs. J. Warren, treasurer; Miss F. Harrison, chaplain. These ladies will be assisted by J. L. Perkins, chariman of the "house committee" and others. Endorses Mrs. Jones' Proposal James H. Hogans; author of Things Seen and Heard Am ter Sea.

Editor of Things Seen and Heard Amongat Pullman Forters Dear Sir, Replying to your communication regarding the proposition advanced by Mrs Maud Jones for an exhibition in some large center of the arts, achievements and progress of the Negro employees, of the Pullman company. This is a splendid idea and deserves serious consideration by the second section of the great Pullman family. I have always thought that the social and intellectual status of the porter group have been under-estimated and that something should be done to elevate the group to a standard commensurate with their abilities and achievements. It may be that this exhibit as proposed by the writer might be the very solution to this problem. The pullman company teams with men of rare talent and genius. We have authors, poets, artist sculptors in the adults group. The children of our group I am sure would display a creative skill that would not only be a thing of joy and pride to our group, but an inspiration to all. I have visions of feasibility of the plan and shall be glad to co-operate with any efforts to make this pioneer move in our group a success. Yours respectfully, ist, and a Pullman, porter of long service, is a patient in Bellevue Hospital where his illness was diagnosed as tubercular trouble. The nature of Mr. Hoffman's illness was as much of a surprise to him, when he was apprised of it, as to his fellowworkers, it is said. His stay in Bellevue will depend on the extent of the malady, this reporter was informed. Another porter, who is a sufferer from the same disease, is S W Hutchinson, who is in St. Joseph's Hospital in the Bronx. Little hope is held for the recovery of this patient. The report that Al Rhôpe, the club-car porter who self-designates his vocation as "club-car steward," (although he is not so wrong in the designation as some of his fellowworkers would imply) was displaced on the club car of the crack, Knuckerbocker Limited of the New Haven Railroad, after twenty-five years service on this train, turned out to be nothing more than a tumor. It was ruined freely the previous week around the Grand Central that Rhôpe, who it is said, is not popular with his fellow porters, was displaced by Charlie Green, who is just the opposite of Rhone in the esteem of his fellow workers. It is said that Green did try to dislodge the veteran Rhône, but there was "nothing cooking" that Charlie smelled. The significance of the incident was that it was the principal topic of conversation among the porters of the New Haven lines during the week. Paterson, N. J. Patterson, N. J.-Mr. and Mrs. W. W.

Williston High School of Wilmington, N. C. bowed to Laurinburg Institute football team in Woodruff Park, Friday, October 12. The game was slow but hard fought and both teams were good on offense and defense. Laurinburg carried the play to its opponents throughout the game. The home team was penalized fifteen yards for holding, petting, the ball on their own five yard line but the visitors were unable to cross, the goal line. The visitor's goal was in danger a few times and was crossed three times. Williston team made one touchdown in the last quarter, while the home team made a touchdown in each of the second, third and last quarters. Both teams punted well and brought back punts effectively. The home team's backfield worked with proficiency while that of the visitors while being good was a little too light. The visitor's left end was the star on the line for his team and the lines of both teams were well balanced. Laurinburg received three penalties, the visitors, none. The final score was 18-6 in favor of Laurinburg. Fitzgerald, Ga. Fitzgerall, Ga., -Service at Mr. Moriah Baptist Church were held at the usual hour Sunday. Rev. D. S.

C. The farmers are very busy, now gathering their crops. From all accounts, the cotton crop will not be abundant this fall as was expected Vomiting is of frequent occurrence in infants and children, due to overfilling the stomach with too much milk, as in breast fed infants who spit up or regurgitate, some of the milk unchanged immediately after nursing. Too frequent feeding produces the same result. Again the swallowing of air during the act of sucking invites spitting up—whether the infant is breast fed or bottle fed—in which latter case the infant is left to nurse the bottle himself and the neck is not kept full of milk permitting much air to be swallowed. Mothers should hold both baby and bottle until the child is old enough to support the bottle without aid. Too much handling after nursing. Jumping the baby up and down and tight binders pre-dispose to the return of the tood. Feeding too slowly—taking one half hour or more, a nipple with a tible too small or a nipple too long (such as a six-inch nipple) we once saw at Vanderbilt University and used by a foreign mother. This naturally irritated the back of the throat; protoke; vomiting. Bringing back the tood is sometimes an expression of "nervous constriction." This may be very persistent and vicious, such as in so-called eye vomiting where the infant has recurrent attacks of vomiting. It has been observed that infants after feeding may induce vomiting by sucking, thiring, numb or ringers, some make chewing motions, arch their spines, throw back the head and by apparently a conscious effort bring the milk up, seem to chew it and then swallow it again, although some is lost. This resembles the habits of the camel; and so has been called rumination. It is of nervous origin, also. There is another form of vomiting seen in infant from two weeks to two months of age. From the mother's point of view it will be noticed that the infant vomits excessively every time he is fed. He vomits more than the mother, thinks he could have taken at the last meal and the vomiting is forceful—shoots out a great distance like a cannonball, therefore, called by doctors projectile vomiting. The infant fails to gain in weight and becomes much emaculated. This is a very serious condition and the mother should take the baby to a doctor as soon as becomes aware of such vomiting. The best results are obtained in the mother notices this when the baby is four or five weeks old, the probably will worry along with the child for two weeks thinking that "her milk is bad." These infants are very constipated, because little passes into the intestines. Now, this condition is so very important we feel justified in telling you more about it. In a series of observation made at Babes' Hospital it was found that (1) when the duration of the symptoms was under four weeks the death rate was 13 plus out of each hundred (13 per cent); when over four weeks, rate 35-plus per cent; (2) in infants pretermly breast fed, death rate is 11 per cent; in the bo- tiful fed 35 per cent; in the infants under 7 pounds, rate 28 per cent; over 7 pounds, rate 5+ per cent; over 10 when the infants had lost up to 10 per cent of their body weight there were no deaths; when 30 per cent occurred 6 out of 12 died. Food elements—fat, sugar starch, but the shortage of the crop may be in favor of the prices. Corn and other food products have the same average crop. Miss Helen Latumer and Ruth Butler, who spent the summer in Cincinnati, returned home some days ago and have resumed their work on training in Prosperity Graded School.

Greene has left to resume her work as teacher in Marion County Training School, Marion, S. C Miss J. L. Hamilton will also teach there this term. Miss Azalea White has resumed her teaching duties in Lotto, S. C. Mrs. Janie Ellison made a bilingual trip to Atlanta, Ga., on business. Rev. E. C. Jones who has been lately called to the pastorate of Mr. Pleasant Baptist Church, has moved to this town. The members of his congregation are loud in their praises of him. Rev J, E. Beard, pastor, of St. James A, M. E. Church, returned a few days ago to the delight of his congregation from a three weeks trip to Cumberland, Md., and St. Newark, N.J., and New York City. He stopped on his way back at Baltimore, Md., and Washington, D. C. A week of this time was spent with Rev. Ellert H. Beard, his son, who is pastor of the Metropolitan, M. E. Church, Cumberland, Md. Rev J. E. Beard returned Thursday evening from the trustee board meeting and formal meeting of Alleluia University, Columbia, S.C., where the presiding, elders and trustees reported $14,000 collected this fall from the several A. M. E. Church of the state. Rev. Beard is now planning a great revival for his church with the assistance of Rev. Mosely of Greenwood, S. C. We know it will be a very successful meeting as he is crowned with success in all things he has undertaken. Mrs Mary Henderson is reported seriously ill. William Greene, Jr. is agent of The New York Age and will be pleased to deliver The Age to any person who desires it. See him protein—can cause vomiting. Fat is perhaps the chief offender. In the days 'o' top milk (cream) mixtures vomiting was very common. Fat is the last food element to leave the stomach; cow's milk fat contains irritating fatty acids not found in breast milk. Therefore, the vomiting from fats is sour and occurs up to or just before the next feeding. All milk vomited after an hour is sour, so such vomiting of itself is not necessarily bad. The vomitus may be "watery" and soon after feeding. In the bottle fed the sugar is often too light in these cases. This is especially true where excessive use is made of maltose preparations. In a child at any age, a sudden, forceful vomiting, with fever, may be the warning of the onset of meningitis, tumor of the brain, obstruction of the bowels (in this case we have obstinate constipation), pneumonia, inflammation of the abdomen (peritonitis), measles, scarlet fever or acute infection of the stomach and intestines. We cannot tell you what to do in the way of treatment because in any case you might be dealing with the more serious types of vomiting. Suffice it to say that with the possible exception of overfeeding at the breast and failing to hold the bottle for the infant all causes of vomiting, which you can correct yourself, every other cause which we have listed demands that you take your baby to a competent doctor.

Dodson of 450 Shepherd avenue, formerly of 309 Berriman street, is seriously ill at his home with pneumonia. BRIDGE STREET CHURCH REOPENS MAIN AUDITORIUM Sunday will be a big day in the life of Bridge Street A. M. E. Church, the Rev. Edward Ernest Tyler, pastor, for this church, which is the oldest Negro religious organization in the Borough of Brooklyn, and which for over a century has been committed self to the task of the spiritual and material development of the race, will have a reopening and service of dedication of memorials and gifts. Bishop Joshua H. Jones, prefect of the first Epipalal District, is expected to be present and preach. Through the efforts of Dr. Tyler and the officers of the church, means have been devised whereby the church has been completely renovated from top to bottom. The racks in the paws have been altered. New doors have been installed. The lecture room has been altered, and there are other improvements. For a number of weeks the congregation has been worshipping in theence room has been completed. This will be the first-Sunday in nearly a month that they have worshipped in this room. Dr. Tyler and the officials of the church so mapped out things the main alterations are to be taken in the general membership and well-wishers. Such things as the new choir rail, the reconditioning of the pulpit furniture; the new doors and other things have been taken care of, by individual members as their relatives of friends, and the auxiliaries of the church. The names of these individuals and auxiliaries will appear in the next issue of The Age. Last Sunday morning and evening the pastor, Dr. Tyler delivered a sermon, the morning sermon was devoted to this topic, "The Place of Discipline in the Building of the Christian Life." Dr. Tyler stressed the point that we as Christians must train ourselves to live a Christian life. Must learn to subdue our passions and study to improve ourselves along the line. At the evening hour he gave a practical sermon, the dominant note being that in this life we must think clean, act clean, and do clean things. Strive to be progressive and keep abreast of the times, "for as a man thinketh so is he." He spoke of the crow and what he saw in the nest. We must not be like the crow but have discriminating powers. Because of not being able to be in the main audience room last Sunday, and the crowded program will be held in the afternoon. The pre-communion or love feast will be held on Friday night. The second quarterly conference will be held Wednesday, October 24 It is a significant fact that while Bridge Street has been in the midst of raising the funds for the alterations with a membership of 1,500 she gave $1,000 for education. This surpasses other churches with a larger membership. Hence the church has every member and friend help in meeting the cost of the "New Bridge Street."
