PRES. HOOVER SURPRISES PARTY IN THE SOUTH Detailed Report Shows $70,000 Loss In Elks' Treasury --- Report of Special Investigator Of Affairs Of Grand Lodge Of Elks Is Submitted, Showing $70,000 Deficit The Keystone National Detective Agency, Inc., Sheridan C. Bruseaux, principal, has made public the first report of its findings following an investigation of affairs of the Grand Lodge, I. B. P. O., E. of W., J. Finley Wilson, grand exalted ruler, in which the charge is made that 1928 showed a deficit of more than $70,000 as compared with 1926 and 1927 VOL. 42. No. 23 PRES. Detaile Report of Special I Affairs Of Grand Submitted, Show Cash Balance Shrinks By To Less Than $40,000 Is Laid Of Reckle The Keystone Nation Sheridan C. Bruseaux, p the first report of its find gation of affairs of the G of W., J. Finley Wilson, which the charge is made of more than $70,000 as 1927. I have been asked to show that the balance in 1926 when the general ledger met in Cleveland was $2,973. One year later, at the time of meeting, this balance still stood at a shrinkage of $2,970.00, which the added a special fund raised for the M.D. Medical fund for $1,092.26, which accorded to the report was not described a total of $7,292.80. Lost $70,000 In Two Years Pier 1028 when the grand lodge met in Chicago the investigates charge that the grand lodge had dwindled to less than $10,000 more than $70,000 less than in the two previous years. One of the direct causes of this large decrease, says the report, was the failure of the Wage Earners' Savings Bank of Savannah, Ga., which entailed a loss of $8,731,400 with interest thereon, and that steps have been taken by the legal department to recover any part of this loss or to safeguard the interests of the grand lodge. Another cause of the decrease is a general increase of salaries and operating expenses, out of which to growth of order. The report says that while the number of local lodges increased by more than 20 per cent, there had been a corresponding decrease in annual financial membership, due to an apparent neglect by grand lodge officers of interest in established local lodges in favor of oracular lodges. Commission Criticized. Cameron expressed the establishment of a Civil Liberties Commission for which a large sum was appreciated at the Chicago court. The charge is made that although Robert L. Nelson of Washington was placed at its head as a share of $100 per month, the Commission serves no purpose justifying formation. Reference made to an appeal sent out by the department to the local lodge asking for contributions for a "Dear Howard Defense Dund," required to be made direct to Mr. Nelson instead of to the secretary of the order. The secret save "If any funds were awarded as a result of this case, Mr Nelson has had the sole large and management of the use." It is also alleged that Mr. Nelson has more than $30,000 in own name and needed no deferred And that Mr. Howard is a grand legal attorney, at a price of $100 a month, notwithstanding that there appears to be an important legal work to be done. When this is the case "court legal talent is always engaged and earns at times to be enforced at a rather high price." Overpaid Officera A list of salaries paid officers who duties are cited as being unusual imaginary. Four audits are made of whom are certified accounts are paid $400 a year, about ten days' work, the grand chaplain who serves at each grand lodge session opening and closing of the meeting on a yearly salary of $300 and quarterly, which figures out at $150 per hour for actual salaries. (instead of seven, audited by the charter) are paid $10 each a year for the latter service rendered. The states that the only provision in an inadequate salary is grand treasurer, who salaries of $2,000 per annum provide both office rent and personal service. A compartment with the grand secretary, who is paid $5,000 per allowances of $30 per office rent and $100 and annually each month for The Grand Exalted Ruler Referring to the grand exalted messiah, the report saws he is paid $5,000 per year, with allow- ance for office rent, and clerk bare, but that he maintains an office at his home and the clerical work is done by his wife, aided occasionally by an employee in the office of the Washington Eagle, a newspaper owned and operated by Grand Exalted Ruler Wilson. It is asserted that he is officially expense account totals more than $800 per month; but that no detailed lists of items or vouchers are submitted to show just how this sum is spent. Vouchers drawn by the grand exalted ruler and approved by the grand secretary show that the following sums have been drawn by the grand exalted ruler during the five months from October, 1928, to February 1929; October, $782.91; November, $739.91; December, $730.50; January, $776.90; February, $752.11, a total of $857.59.29. The charge is made that in addition to his salary and allowances, the head of the order receives large contributions and travelling expenses on the occasion of visits probably diminishing several if not dollar. Two instances垫电 charge that he was paid $102.20 for attending a trustee meeting in Detroit, and $102.56 for attending an educational meeting in Chicago, both in December increasing the office expense for the five months cited above to about $4,000, or at the rate of $800 per month. Power Is Absolute. Another practice charged is that checks payable to other persons or business concerns are sent, by his order, direct to the grand exalted ruler, instead of to the proper payees. These sums range, from $100 to $500 per month. The grand exalted ruler is given plenary power by the laws governing the grand lodge, states the report, placing every department and every officer under his direct control. There is no cabinet or council to which he is responsible. His only report is to the grand lodge in session, and this, it is intimated, is under his control through the numerous paid committees the places which are at his disposal. At the grand lodge session held in New York in 1922, the treasury paid out $25,583.02 for committee work. About 400 men at a minimum of $7 per day, were named, and they were paid for seven full days, some for eleven No Downright Dishonesty. In a summary of the findings the report states that no evidence has been found of downright dishonesty on part of any grand lodge officer, but that there is an extravagant and reckless expenditure of the order's funds. The falling off of the membership and diminishing of cash on hand, notwithstanding an increase in number of lodges, is called an increase in the condition. It forecast that if this condition continues the treasury will soon have no cash on hand, or there will have to be a tremendous increased taxation upon the members The grand exalted ruler and grand legal advisor are charged with unpardonable negligence in not making an effort to protect the order's interest in the matter of the loss by failure of the Savannah Bank, although other depositors have filed suits and been awarded judgments against the A recommendation is made for change of the grand exalted ruler's method of handling office expense vouchers, and the charge is made that several persons are paid salaries for which they render no adequate service. The abolishment of the Civil Liberties is advised as a requirement to the abolition of the practice of the grand exalted ruler of collecting money local lodges when he visits them. A complete audit of books and financial affairs by a certified public accountant is recommended, together with a change in laws of the order which would put supreme control in hands of a cabinet, instead of in the grand exalted ruler. NEW YORK, N. Y., SATURDAY, MARCH 30, 1929 Harlem Hooch King To Surrender To U. S. The man said to be the head of a big chain of Harlem speakeasies which have been doing a flourishing business, will surrender some time this week according to his attorney, Michael Edelstein, after a warrant had been issued for his arrest by United States Attorney Robert Watts. According to William J Calhoun who directed a raid against the claim several days ago, a unique system was in operation. Headquarters, according to the special agent, were at 114 West 34th street and it was from this place that the chain store magnates were alleged to have directed Harlem bootleg activities. The Harlem source of supply was said to have been located at 79 West 141st street and delivery was alleged to have been made from garages located at 150th street and Seyenth avenue. The raid made by prohibition enforcement agents Saturday is said to have broken up the chain in which there is said to be more than $200,000 invested BARBERS GYPPED BY FAKE HEALTH BOARD OFFICIAL Exhibits Phony Badge To Enforce-Collection Of Barber's Permit Fee The Police Department are looking for a fake inspector representing the Board of Health who has been especially active in Harlem for the past few weeks. According to one of the complaints, J. O Miller, the man came to his barber shop at 67 West 134th street, and flashed a lodge saying that he was from the Board of Health and that his barber shop permit had expired Miller said that his permit had expired and although it is customary for the barbers to go down to the Municipal Building to make their payments for the new permit, Miller said that he thought nothing of the man coming after the money Got Barber's $10. The ougus inspector then gave Miller a receipt for his $10 and left saving that the permit would be mailed out the following day. When the permit failed to arrive, Miller became suspicious and went down to the Board of Health and after telling his story, they advised him that he had been made the victim of an impostor and that he ought to go to the police authorities and report the matter. As soon as police officers were told the fakir and the man was accurately described by his victim, another barber came in and made the same complaint Detectives are working on the case but in the meantime, barbers are warned not to make payments to any collectors representing themselves as Health Department officers. PROPER TITLES DEMANDED FOR COLORED WOMEN White Women Take Stand For Courtesy Titles In Public Prints Greensboro, N.C.—When newspaper reporters asked for the first names of Negro delegates attending the woman's section of the State Interracial Committee in session here, Miss Clara Cox, of High Point, the white president of the section, declined to give the names on the ground that the newspapers should refer to Negro women as Miss or Miss, or else should not use their names at all. Miss Cox declared that if Negro women cannot be given their proper titles, she herself preferred to have her name appear in the newspaper a "plain Clara Cox." The incident was the basis of a discussion which proved the most interesting one in the state meet. Ninety in the colored taking part in the discussion were all 11. Mellory, wife of the president of Johnson C. Smith University, and Miss Lillian Donnel. The position taken by Miss Cox received general support on the part of both white and colored delegates.

Brooklyn Jury Frees Woman For Killing What is believed to be a record for selecting a jury in a first degree murder trial was set Tuesday, March 26, in county court, Brooklyn, when twelve jurors were chosen before Justice Franklin Taylor in six minutes. The case on trial was that of Theresa Glover, 23, of 1 St. Felix street, Brooklyn, charged with the stabbing to death of Viola Mabrey, 30, of 453 Carlton avenue, Brooklyn, both colored. Neither the state nor defense issued a single challenge and the first twelve talesmen were seated as jurors.

The original legacy was more than a million dollars, but young Garland settled $200,000 on his wife, who afterwards divorced him. The remainder, $950,000, he turned over to the fund, and this sum increased in value during the six years to $2,000,000. James Weldon Johnson, former contributing editor to the New York Age, executive secretary of A.P., was made one of the administrators of the fund. Its purpose was primarily to aid the labor movement and all progressive causes. Among the various enterprises aided by the fund, substantial contributions were made to the Messenger Magazine, official organ of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters. Another direct aid to the Negro was $65,000 for Negro rights, but the report does not show in what direction this sum was used. The fund reports that it has given away $1,200,000 and lent $640,000.

President Hoover Astounds Leaders Of Republican Party In South With Frank Statement Of His Intentions Tells Press Conference Recent Exposures In Some States Make It Impossible For Old Party Leaders To Command Confidence Washington, D. C.—President Hoover has cast a bombshell into the ranks of southern politicians of the Republican suasion by a formal statement of his intentions with regard to southern support for the party. No other President has ever uttered such a bold challenge for southern support. The question uppermost in the minds of most of those interested is as to the effect it will have upon the political destinies of the Negro leaders in the South, especially those who have been implicated, either directly or indirectly, in recent exposures of the alleged bartering of public offices. Commenting upon efforts of former Republican Presidents to build up a party following in the South, President Hoover praised leaders in border states for building up strong organizations to the point of securing representation in Congress. But he exhibited displeasure at recent exposures of patronage scandals. service, the different Federal departments will be compelled to adopt other methods to secure advice as to the selection of Federal employees. Set A Precedent. In answering the question of Southern patronage, the President set a precedent. It was, with this exception of announcement that he had not picked a member of the Federal Radio Commission for the First district, the only question he answered in his press conference. And he permitted use of the text of his answer. Under President Coolidge there President's Statement "It has been the aspiration of Republican Presidents over many years to build mp sound - Republican organization in the Southern States of such character as would command itself to the citizens of those States. "This aspiration has arisen out of no narrow sense of partnership but from the conviction shared in equally by the leaders of all parties that the basis of sound government must rest upon strong two-party representation and organization; that the voice of all states in the councils of the Government can be assured by no other means; that the welfare of the nation at large requires the breaking down of sectionalism in politics, that the public service can be assured only by responsible organization. "Furthermore it has been the belief of these leaders, whose views I share that the building up of such organization must in every conception of our foundations of local self government evolve from those states themselves." Built Up Vigorous Party. "Republican leadership in the border states and in Virginia and North Carolina has long since built up vigorous party organizations which assures Republican representation in the Congress from those States "In other States, including Alabama, Arkansas, Louisiana, Texas and Florida, the Republican leadership has in recent times shown increasing strength and is now rendering able and conscientious service in maintaining wholesome organization under whose advice the appointments to public office have steadily improved and commended themselves to the citizens of those States with increased confidence in the party. I highly approve and welcome the movement of the leaders of Texas, Alabama Florida and other states to broaden the basis of party organization by the establishment of advisory committees of the highest type of citizenship to deal with administrative questions and who will also cooperate with independent Democrats. This movement, springing as it does from within the states themselves, insures its strength, permanence and constant improvement in public service Conditions Intolerable. Recent exposures of abuse in recommendations for Federal office particularly in some parts of states of South Carolina, Georgia and Mississippi under which some of the Federal departments, mainly the Post Office, were mistled in appointments, obviously render it impossible for the old organizations in these states to command the confidence of the administration although many members of these organizations are not subject to criticism. "But such conditions are intolerable to public service are repugnant to the ideals and purposes of the Republican party, are unjust to the people of the South and must be ended. The duty of reorganization so as to correct these conditions rests with the people of these states and all efforts to that end will receive the hearty cooperation of 'the administration' if these three states are unable to initiate such organization through the leadership of men who will command confidence and protect the public service, the different Federal departments will be compelled to adopt other methods to secure advice as to the selection of Federal employees. Set A Precedent. In answering the question of Southern patronage, the President set a precedent. It was, with this exception of announcement that he had not picked a member of the Federal, Radio Commission for the First district, the only question he answered in his press conference. And he permitted use of the text of his answer. Under President Coolidge there investigation of the patronage scans has been considerable activity in dals and indictments have been returned in Mississippi. A trial of one alleged patronage seller was postponed and a change of venue granted when an editor charged that there was no chance to convict the accused man. Hit and Run Driver Kills 5 Yr. Old Boy Little Theodore Smith. five years of age, of 123 West 142nd street, was run over by a truck and instantly killed while playing in the street Wednesday afternoon, March 20.

The boy was the son of Arthur and Matilda Smith His funeral was held from the Howell Funeral Church and the body shipped Saturday, March 30, to their former home, Kingston, Jamaica. B. W. I. Burnside's Apartment Is Destroyed By Fire The apartment of William Burnside, at 49 West 137th street, was destroyed by fire Wednesday morning Mr Burnside, who has been sick for more than four months, awoke about eight o'clock almost suffocated by smoke, but saw no fire. He looked up and discovered that the paint on the ceiling was smoking. He managed to go on enough clothes to go into the hall and gave a alarm. Before the fire department arrived the fire had burned through his apartment, but the firemen kept the blaze from spreading to any other part of the house ```markdown ``` It is thought that a rat carried a match to the ceiling, where the fire started. The ceiling was wired a few weeks ago for the installation of electric lights, but the current had not been turned on.

This year we are celebrating our ninety seventh birthday, the order being born in the city of Philadelphia and State of Pennsylvania, June 10, 1832. The membership of the first Tabernacle was very small, but the principles of the order were extremely profound and from that small beginning, like the awn, they have grown into a tree, and their branches in the United States are like the branches of the oak, strong and durable. Gradually setting apart new Tabernacles, increasing the membership of those already in operation, state grand lodges, and the national grand lodge were set apart in 1880. In the year 1884 Henry Highland Garnett Tabernacle was organized in New York City, which then became the mother Tabernacle, a few years later Mt Olive Tabernacle, No 110, was organized and these two formed the beginning of the order in New York. These two departments worked faithfully, and by energetic work in later years other Tabernacles were formed, when in the year 1906 with five subordinate tabernacles, and a membership of about 600 the state grand tabernacle of New York was organized. Under the jurisdiction of the State Grand Tabernacle, the Tabernacles thrived and grew under the administrations of some of the past grand wards, superiors, namely Waldee Banks, Bro Foote, Jas Thomas, E C Evans, William Brooks and Ashley Roumey. It was during the administration of Ashley Roumey that great additions were made to the order both by new Tabernacles and great numbers of persons were initiated into the order. The progress was such that we now have twenty-one subordinate tabernacles, two degree temples one, grand encampment and four juvenile classes in this jurisdiction, with a healthy membership and a favorable bank account. Two tabernacles in the jurisdiction are stopping a race for members during a drive. In fact all departments are showing real, live interest in this drive now in progress. KNIGHTS OF PYTHIAS Introducing Honest Goods-Two Factions Working For Good of One Campaign a Succes It is to be noted with much satisfaction to the campaign committee and those responsible for their selection that the national and international campaign for 2004 new members in the knights of Pythias of the Eastern and Western Hemispheres is meeting with success in more ways than one. Several letters of inquiry have been received at the mediums used to wards the success of this campaign especially the property of newspaper publicity and as to the existence of two branches of the Order.

Those within the order know these facts and their families treat this security and protection those without must be told It might be requested that there are two factions of Negro Pythians, but such being the fact we hope both factions are working in the pulp of our race in an honest, enlightened manner. We assure you such as our endeavor, and has been ever since our separation forty years ago. Sometimes two factions help to keep each other straight as proven by the two great political parties for if everything rested with just one faction these might be too much in one set of hands with nothing to possibly act as a check. These public answers are for the benefit of those interested as we are still proof of our organization.

Rich & Bros., this city, books about Negroes and books by southern Negro authors have had a very conspicuous place. Among the latter group appear Dr. Booker Washington's classical autobiography, "Up from Slavery"; Dr. Robert R. Moton's life story, "Finding a Way Out," and his latest book, "What The Negro Thinks," which is just from the press, James Weldon Johnson's "God's Trombones." Walter White's "Fire in the Flint" and "Flight", the poems of Dunbar, Mrs Georgia Douglas Johnson, and T. J. Flainagain, local poet, and Negro histories by Dr. Carter G Woodson and Dr. Benjamin Brawley. Generous Space To Exhibit Most conspicuous among the works of southern authors were Dr. Howard W Odum's "Rainbow Round My Shaider," and his two volumes of Negro songs; Dbose Heyward's "Porky Land" and "Mamba's Daughters"; Mrs Julia Peterkin's "Black April" and Scarlet Sister Mary, and Dr L. L Adams' "Congaree Sketch" Of course, "Uncle Remus," as interpreted by Joel Chandler Harris was present in all the general glory of his several volumes, some oil them in manuscript form. Dr Odum, Mrs Peterkin, and Dr Adams were present in person on successive days, and gave readings which greatly interested the large audiences present The generous space accorded in the exposition not only to the stories about Negroes, but to the work of Negro authors themselves is considered significant and has been the occasion of much favorable comment Urban League Official To Make Denver Survey Denver Col-Ira De A Reed director of the Research Department of the National Urban League will arrive in Denver on April 10 to begin a survey of the economic conditions affecting the Negro in the Rocky Mountain Metropolis.

SEEKING POLITICAL HARMONY In an attempt to dispel the ill-luck that seems to accompany triumvirate leadership several New York Republicans came together at Washington recently, in a meeting at the White House, and evolved a plan which promised harmony on the surface at least, in the parcelling out of the Federal offices. According to this arrangement H Edward Machold, the chairman of the State Committee, as to be chief arbiter in deciding upon endorsements for office. Associated with him will be Representative Hill as the original Hoover leader in this state, and National Committee Hills, who forfeited his right to control the situation by holding out too long in his refusal to recognize the Hoover sentiment among his followers. Then the up-state Congressmen are also to have their say as to appointments in which they are interested This is a pleasing arrangement to bring harmony out of what threatened to be an embarrassing situation. It is to be taken for granted that in naming candidates for the Federal offices, such as judges, postmasters, collectors of customs and internal revenue some attention will be paid to securing men of character and fitness for the positions and who will be acceptable to the voters and to the public whom they must serve. Care should be taken to appoint men who are free from intolerance based on racial or religious bias. Discriminations as to face or color in the public service should be sternly rebuked as was done by Mr. Hoover when he was Secretary or Commerce Supervisors and men in key positions should not be allowed to complain that too many colored people are appointed, nor to set up color lines debarring them from advancement or assignments that they have earned by good records. There should be no written rules against placing colored employees in preferred positions in the money order departments or at stamp windows, in they have qualified for such places. In short there should be no color line drawn in any position in the Federal service, either in the departments at Washington or in the field service throughout the country. --- If the Republican leaders in New York as well as in other states, bear this broad policy in mind in their endorsement of men for Federal office, they will have done much to insure the success of the party and to ailay dissatisfaction with present conditions. There are several states in the North, and New York is one of them, where the Negro vote is an important quantity in a close election. It only requires the repression of racial intolerance in political recognition and the exercise of fairplay in appointments to keep this vote as a helpful factor in the election of Republican candidates. Any other policy is bound to promote dissatisfaction and drive away this element of strength. --- UNDER NAVAL GO The West Indian po United States known a lands which was purch mark some ten years a under the rule of the N This fact was recalled b of the annual report o who acts as governor o his report Captain Ivan some current reports as of the islands.

The West Indian possession of the United States known as the Virgin Islands which was purchased from Denmark some ten years ago, still remains under the rule of the Navy Department. This fact was recalled by the appearance of the annual report of the naval officer who acts as governor of the group. In his report Captain Evans took issue with some current reports as to the conditions of the islands. He denied that prohibition had wrecked the bay rum industry, and said that alcohol to be used for that purpose came from Porto Rico, the United States and even St. Croix. The bay leaves from which the essential oil is extracted are supplied by the island of St. John, one of the group. Rum running for beverage use has not been entirely stopped although the prohibition situation is tetrmed "most satisfactory, which is capable of many interpretations. The steady decline of the native population of the islands is noted, the loss in the past ten years amounting to over five thousand. The total number of inhabitants is given as over twenty thousand, consisting mainly of Negroes Illiteracy or indeed any part of that continent, can be permanently made "a white man's country." Nature itself will take care of that, as is shown in the descriptions of that continent written by Sarah G. Millin, Olive Schreiner and other European authors. Even that garrulous old soul Trader Horn did not fool himself to that extent The Dark Continent may harbor the white man for a few years or for a century, but sooner or later it will swallow him up before he can make it "a white man's country." TRIALS OF PERRY HOWARD. The fact that the Federal authorities are again moving to try Perry Howell, the National Committeeman from Mississippi, on the charge of selling Federal taxes, despite his recent acquittal by Mississippi jury is suggestive that he may an ordinary prosecution of justice concerned. The trial which was to be taken place at Meridian was postponed until April 8, on the ground that the government could not get a fair trial, as community was in sympathy with the defendants. As the previous jury declared that it would not believe the government witnesses under oath, the case against Howard does not appear to be wrong. While The Age has no brief in being Howard, we do not think he should make a scape goat any more than should be regarded as a martyr to the second trial and a jury had been sworn it was postponed at the request of government Howard had previously requested a postponement until May he gave him and his fellow defendants opportunity to prepare for trial. This request was refused, but after the second trial was begun the government again proceeded it Howard's lawyers say that the first trial cost him eleven thousand dollars, and the preparations for the new trial or five thousand. It has been indicated that in Howard would resign as National Committeeman, should be spared the expense of any other trials. It seems rather peculiar that out of the Southern politicians involved in charge of selling Federal offices, Howard is the only one to be proceeded against court. For instance, Senator Blake South Carolina was brought into inquiry last Saturday by a witness testified that Joseph W. Tolbert, Republican State Chairman, told him that wanted Mr. Blease appointed United States district attorney, as Blease contributed five hundred dollars to the Republican cause. Another witness testified that Blease replied, in answer to inquiry as to why he had indorsed Tolbert as head of the Republican party, in a Democrat I indorsed Mr. Tolbert to the President and I will continue indorse him. It was also testified Blease while Governor had pardoned Mr. Tolbert's cousins. Of course, Blease said that he contributed to the Republican campaign funds. It much of the testimony so far goes before the committee is to be credited democrats and Republicans alike were involved in the bartering of Federal taxes in the South, and the matter is common as to be regarded as no crime under the circumstances the prosecution of Perry Howard takes on the aspect persecution for political ends. The fact that the Federal authorities are again moving to try Perry Howard, the National Committeeman from Mississippi, on the charge of selling Federal offices, despite his recent acquittal by a Mississippi jury is suggestive that more than an ordinary prosecution of justice is concerned. The trial which was to have taken place at Meridian was postponed until April 8, on the ground that the government could not get a fair trial, as the community was in sympathy with the defendants. As the previous jury declared that it would not believe the government witnesses under oath, the case against Howard does not appear to be very strong. While The Age has no brief in behalf of Howard, we do not think he should be made a scape goat any more than he should be regarded as a martyr to his race. When his case was called for the second trial and a jury had been sworn in it was postponed at the request of the government. Howard had previously requested a postponement until May. He gave him and his fellow defendants opportunity to prepare for trial. This request was refused, but after the second trial was begun the government again postponed it Howard's lawyers say that that first trial cost him eleven thousand dollars, and the preparations for the new one tour or five thousand. It has been intimated that it Howard would resign his post as National Committeeman, he would be spared the expense or any further trials. It seems rather peculiar that out or all the Southern politicians involved in the charge or selling Federal offices. Howard is the only one to be proceeded against in court. For instance, Senator Blease of South Carolina was brought into the inquiry last Saturday by a witness who testified that Joseph W. Tolbert, Republican State Chairman, told him that he wanted Mr. Blease appointed United States district attorney, as Blease had contributed five hundred dollars to the Republican cause. Another witness testified that Blease replied, in answer to an inquiry as to why he had indorsed Tolbert as head or the Republican party. "I am a Democrat I indorsed Mr. Tolbert to the President and I will continue to indorse him." It was also testified that Blease while Governor had pardoned two of Tolbert's cousins Of course, Blease denied that he contributed to the Republican campaign funds. It much of the testimony so far given before the committee is to be credited, Democrats and Republicans alike were involved in the bartering of Federal offices in the South, and the matter was so common as to be regarded as no crime. Under the circumstances the prosecution of Perry Howard takes on the aspect of persecution for political ends. ELKS NEED A NEW HEAD. Recent reports from Chicago be charges of waste of funds and mismagement of affairs of the Grand Lodge of the Independent Benevolent Protec Order of Elks These charges made by the head of a large private agency, which has been invoicing the inner workings of the on is alleged that there was a short fifty thousand dollars in the treat order when the newly ele Recent reports from Chicago bring charges of waste of funds and mismanagement of affairs of the Grand Lodge of the Independent Benevolent Protective Order of Elks. These charges are made by the head of a large private detective agency, which has been investigating the inner workings of the order. It is alleged that there was a shortage of fifty thousand dollars in the treasury of the order, when the newly elected treasurer took possession. It was this alleged shortage that caused the investigation to be made by the Chicago agency. The report stated that the present grand exalted ruler of the order, J. Finley Wilson had spent between eighteen thousand and twenty thousand dollars at each grand lodge session, to bring about his reelection to the office. It was also alleged in the report that a number of the members of the order received from fifty to two hundred dollars a month and expenses, for doing nothing but to help reelect the grand exalted ruler. Another charge was that the grand exalted ruler had issued an edict to the subordinate lodges calling for contributions to a defense fund for Perry Howard Republican National Committee who is again to be tried on the charge of selling Federal offices in Mississippi. This, despite the fact that Howard is said to have over thirty thousand dollars to his credit in the banks of Washington While the grand exalted ruler seeks either to justify his conduct or to deny it and to have practically disappeared stated that one of the results of the investigation might be the filing of a bill in the Federal courts, asking for an accounting of all the grand lodge funds. While this would not restore any of the funds wasted, it would establish conclusively the responsibility for mismanagement and point the way to put the affairs of the order on a safer basis. As things now stand, it would seem that the situation demands a change in the administration of the order. Too long tenure of office has proved dangerous to stability of the order and the regular management of its affairs. This can only be done by bringing the rank and file of the membership to realize the gravity of the situation. There should be a change in the office of exalted ruler at the next meeting of the grand lodge. There is need for a competent man of affairs who can command the confidence of the members to take charge of the muddled situation. No better man could be selected to fill this emergency than Casper Holstein of New York, who has shown his qualities both as a business man and a philanthropist on many occasions. THE AGE READERS' FORUM Call Wilson To Account Editor of The New York Age If you will allow me space in your paper, and I am very sure you will as your paper has always been a medium through which many and the most conservative readers enjoy reading both your comments and others on various topics. In your paper on March 23, 1929 I read with sleep regret or the extravagant manner in which the funds are being used by Grand Exalted Ruler I. Finley Wilson for his own selfish use to stay in power It is nothing more than I have expected I have often said that one you was enough for any man as head and I cannot see how he has been able to pull the wool over so many men who are supposed to be bright and intelligent. It certainly looks as though the will be a lesson to them and they should get right down to business and have this J. Friesen Wilson make a report of his financial dealings and it necessary he should be made to reburse the grand lodge over years he has illegally spent. I can not beg why the allowed him to go on year after year without making a report. He is nothing more than a servant and paid well being it, and is no better than any other officer and in things come from bad to worse we will all be better off without his bill doing and one man am There is no organization so great or large but we can find a man with brains and executive ability to take up the burden and earn it on without placing the same man in office as there are grave chances that a man will become inflated and will think there is no one but him. Suppose if such were the case, he should die, where the lodge be. Would it have to disband? I say one thousand times no. There are men coming up every year to fill each other's shoes and are coming better and better. So, Elks get to work and save the good Order, and don't let a new spoil a good thing that man on us have learned to reserve and respect The whole trouble is this as a people's that we own in business but we do it our way and not the right way. Why should a ladder receive and spending as much time as is involved in the transaction of the fills to try to go over the work of a year in a few days at a convention? They should place their books before expert accounts the same as banks and other businesses do, and get results and not amongst their friends of whom can hardly read and write. And then we call that business and that is just the kind of management that has caused many good enterprises conducted by us to be failures. Then you wonder why the Negroes don't place their life's savings in your care. They can't because they have no confidence in your business methods and you can't have them. So brothers, wake up and put a business man at the head and give him one year and no more and then CIVIL SERVICE NEWS Here's some more good Civil Service information on all three Civil Servic e commissions.

Those who make the grade will be scorned in immediate, probationary rololien. Over 200 were certified in the City Service last week from the various lists under the Municipal Civil Service Commission lists in included many eligible from the following lists clerk telephone operator, engineer, typist, among them, "through improved educational methods," although it was never very high. But morality was still declared "at a very low ebb," as a Congressional commission reported in 1926, it being measured by the rate of illegitimacy, which was then nearly sixty per cent. Illegitimacy of births is a very imperfect gauge of morals in a tropical community, where the high cost of marriage has more to with the absence of that rate than any lack of morality. This fact is recognized by the statement that the cost of court marriages has been reduced to $1.40 in order to combat illegitimacy. This measure will likely prove abortive, if the people had been accustomed to regard a church wedding as the only recognized mode of formal marriage. The fact of the matter probably is that most of the people are not immoral, but are joined together by what New York State used to call common law marriage. Nevertheless their offspring are recorded as illegitimate in the islands Captain Evans in his report tells us what has already been reported from other sources, that the most of the people are wretchedly poor and that until the islands are prosperous and the people are better housed, there will be no model communities. Irrigation is one of the things needed to make the sugar crops more certain. As this is not likely to be attempted by private capital, it would call for government intervention, as has been done on a larger scale in the Southwestern states. Cattle raising is said to show some improvement, since the opening of the Porto Rican market. Successful experiments have been made in the growing of fruits and vegetables, but regular, transportation facilities to the mainland are needed in order to find a market for them. Government aid is extended to the small farmers, but higher wages are needed to improve the standard of living Little improvement or present conditions can be looked for under the repressive conditions of government imposed by the Navy Department no matter how good may be the intentions of the individual governor. The very system under which he wields authority makes him a martinet, and indisposed to favor any liberal policies or progressive movement for improvements. The sooner the Virgin Islands are taken away from the Navy Department and given some measure of popular government and native autonomy the better it will be for their inhabitants. AFRICA AS A WHITE MAN'S COUNTRY. An Associated Press dispatch from Cape Town, South Africa, announced the opening of the Dominion election by the prime minister, James Barry Hertzog. The policy advocated by the premier seeks to withdraw the franchise from the natives in the Cape province, where it now exists, and to substitute for it special parliamentary representation. To Europeans only is equal franchise to be given, in order to preserve South Africa as "a white man's country. The premier claims that full franchise rights for the natives would inevitably lead to the disappearance of the province as a white man's country. Opposed to the government's plan as advocated by Premier Hertzog, is the Bishop of Cape Town, with other leading figures of European extractions, who are in favor of full franchise rights for the natives. The premier sought to justify his attitude by the casualistic explanation, that although his views were calculated in the first place to look to the interests of the white man he never desired to do anything unjust to the natives. It was a question of the natives interests being so closely dependent upon the interests of the Europeans that if the latter were not well consulted the natives would eventually be the worst sufferers. This is all very well contrived but it only serves to cover the scheme to deprive the natives of the few rights that remain to them in the Cape colony. The gist of the matter is the blunt statement that South Africa is to be regarded as a white man's country. This is the plain truth of the matter and the natives are only regarded as the spoils of conquest to be used for further exploitation in an economic way. They are to be denied the opportunity for economic improvement by being debarred from all skilled trades and exploited as common laborers. This is what the premier means by keeping South Africa as a white man's country. It is remarkable that any Europeans could be found to oppose his plan as has been done by the Bishop of Cape Town and a few others. It is not at all likely that South Africa, the charges brought against him it would appear that the conclusion drawn by the investigators is not unwarranted, when they say that "there is gross mismanagement of the grand lodge funds which has resulted in the loss of thousands of dollars and if continued will result in bankruptcy to the order. It was he will not have a chance to cover up and the lodge will prosecute. Avoiding there are no more looks to bump against that will put out of the running. The time is a credit for a change and let us have it, and save what we got, anything is left. TO OUR WOMEN! Dressmaking As An Asset In The Industrial Field TO OUR WOMEN! Dressmaking As An Asset In The Industrial Field BY INA MAY MOULTON It is held althoughe to some ex- test ignored that the same time been opened to women and hous- wives especially. It is not only one of importance but it is also one of great necessity to women especially from an industrial stand- point and to those women who like to study economy in the homes. It is time for this commercializing age we ought to realize that the women should study and practice some means with the view of creating the desire for better understanding among our group. Dressmaking as an art can be acquired by having the desire to make and wear update clothing that well suits woman desires to look beautiful in that apparel, for 100 percent of them do not go to the store to find out how this can be done. Dressmaking is one of the most interesting studies for women as opens opportunities to them to earn money at home and attract the attention of the community in which they live. It also puts women who are good dressmakers in demand in the industrial field. In this great metropolis the task is much recognized. I'd realize that the above state treats this would make us fines for themselves along the foreign lines for the industrial good of the race which we belong. We wouldn't want to make own a proper understood amour our women, who do not stop to think that this industry is dis- cussed or talked about in home daily. Why the consumer and not the producer?

In no city or place in the United States, of course, made residential segregation be effected by law. Time and again this has been stopped by president of a Supreme Court decision handed down in the famous Louisville case.

For the present however, it is with the local situation we are won't to deal.

Pointing to the formal presentation to Archdeacon James Russell of the Harmon award in the field of religion as one of the most impressive examples of interracial amity in the North, formal and condensed. Dr. deacon's station could just as well have been for constructive achievement in the field of race relations. His contribution to the department of our general welfare in the field of religion would have been appropriate to the context of the cellar. Certainly the Archdeacon has combined his activities in two fields of endeavour—religion and education—in an environment present with difficulties to mold a strict re of racial condition that is a model. For forty-seven years he has worked in southside Virginia as a missionary of the church and the builder of a school. In all of these years as every one knows he has had to plan and execute with an eye single to preserve the delicate posed confidence in the opposite side while at the same time cultivating the love and confidence in his own ease.

We also were somewhat at sea as to the use of this tax but since the free text book act, which put books in all schools free of charge to the parent or student, without regard to creed or color, we can see the benefit of this tax. Recently it was announced from the State Capitol that enough funds had accrued from the sale of malt in State to furnish teachers in our community for a class of twenties or more persons, who are forced circumstances to earn a livelihood and cannot attend public school. This is one more step forward in the educational policy of the State and shows a determination of the State officials to lift the State out on the more tolerant place it higher up on the ladder of intellectual keeps Alabama from being at the bottom of the Educational list. We are hoping and praying that our group avail themselves of the opportunity offered by the State officials in combating illiteracy in this State. Do your part and help the State out of the illiterate mite and upon a former educational foundation. The imposing of a task small raises the question as to whether it be used for homebrew. May be the people of the Delaware State have found a way to get around the Volstead act. --- With the assertion that a simple change has been going on in the personnel of the Negro clergy or that cities the Boston Chronicle said. Now a just survey of the Negro clergy will reveal that within the last ten years men have been called to pastorates here who manifestly were well educated and or scholarly tastes. One has only to attend services at most of our churches to become altogether aware of this fact. Such services are uniformly carried on sansi and intelligently. The tumult and the shouting has died. The old-time ex horter has served his day not has been junked. Our new clergy have to destroy whatever vestiges of the ancient emotionalism that may remain. They have to develop intellectual enterprise and gave their congregations more and more food for thought. The complacency of the old regime must be done away with, simply their hoodwinking and exploiting of the masses. The new Negro preacher must render an effective leadership. He must produce new ideas and champion good deeds with dishearse. He must strive to improve conditions here in Boston, but to the use of so many good men must not be permitted to take the lead. The Boston editor ever said the old fane that pervades general fundamentalism will cease and looked forward to the next act of a Modernist as the editor of the Spectator followed the ex- pose of George Bernard Shaw and something about it.

St. Martin's Chapel "Gradually," confined Mr. Sunderland, "the real significance of Palm Sunday seeped into the understanding of a few of His followers. Later on when excations were made on the barrack walls of a soldier whose spirit had caught the great significance of the coming of Christ in the days when it was unpopular to be a follower of Jesus, this caricature shows a lone soldier worshiping his God. He does it mean to yew and to me! In answer to this question, the real message of Palm Sunday, is that Jesus comes to us, today, in humility and meekness and just as of old. He is making us to receive Him. It is our duty to receive Him into our hands and to try and follow in His footsteps. "To those that received Him, was given power. Likewise, we will be given that mysterious power of God to stand up under difficulties and to say that the great thing in life, despite criticism, is to follow Christ, completely, completely. God will to look up to live a life whose reward will be a crown of glory.

With such an organization, "Swinging Along will include Margaret Lee Burnett and Bailey, Lois Parker, Ravella Hughes, Orlando Roberese, Winfield and Winfield, the famous dancers from Ziegfield's Show Boat" and Will Marion Cook's Orchestra and Vocal Chorus. In accordance with its established policy, the Lafayette Theatre will present "Swinging Along" in connection with its regular big photoplay program.

The conversation in "On Trial" is the most dramatic and stirring of any conversation in any previous talking picture. The cast of "On Trial" includes Pauline Frederick, Bert Lytell, Louis Wilson, James Herbert, Richard Tucker, Fred Kelsey, Edmund Breese and little Vendell Darr, who is the young daughter of the man accused of the murder creates a sensation by her testimony at her father's trial.

A lovely country house on a wild stormy night is the scene. There are strange rappings, screams of agony, calls for help, pistol shots, terrifying all the characters and especially the maid servant. This part is played with great comedy effect by the versatile Manda Randolph, who, for this one special week, is loaned by the musical comedy troupe to the drama players because no one else in the world could play this particular part so well. The mystery is finally solved by the new cook, Mrs. Murphy. That is why the play is called "The Mysterious Mrs. Murphy." And who plays Mrs. Murphy? That should remain a secret for the present as the revelation is the greatest surprise of this surprise play.

James Reese Europe, and afterwars of the original "Shuffle Along" company, For the second time in as many months, Lafayette Theatre was limited to capacity on Sunday, March 24, with an enthusiastically appreciative audience which enjoyed the mammoth bill presented by Romeo L. Dougherty in a midnight benefit for the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters A Philip Randolph, president and general ordeal. The show was also given as a farewell greeting to the cast of Blyton, which was scheduled to sail early Tuesday morning for an extended booking in England, and fellow artists from "Blackbirds," "New Boat" Broadway successes, from the Alhambra Theatre stock company and other current attractions, united in making the bill one of the biggest and best ever seen in a Harlem playhouse. In addition to these artists, the occasion marked also the first appearance on a New York stage since his return from abroad, where he was a sensational success, of Noble Slissle, formerly associated with the late Lincut. James Reese Europe, and afterwards one of the first stars of the original "Shuffle Along" company, the first of the late productions to win favor with Broadway audiences.

A CORRECTION In the review of Henry Cowell's program or ultra-modern music for the pianoforte, printed in this column last week, a phrase in the last paragraph read "But as to the permanency of this form of prognosticate." Of course, this means nothing. What was intended to be said was. "BUT AS TO THE PERMANENCY OF THIS FORM OF MUSIC FOR THE PIANOFORTE THIS REVIEWER DECLINES THE OPPORTUNITY TO PROGNOSTICATE." The omission of an entire line slipped by both linetype and proof reader. cooperation by Frank Schiffman, general manager, and Bernard Burt, house manager, with the entire house staff, from Stage Manager Sam Craig down to the ushers, giving loyal assistance. The program was handled by Leigh Whipper and Jack Carter of the "Porgy" company as masters of ceremonies, and their abilities in this capacity added much to the enjoyment of the audience. The splendid orchestra of "Blackbirds" with Felix F. Weir wielding the baton, was in the pit, supporting not only the artists from that company, but the entire bill. A feature of keen interest to the assemblage was the presentation of a silver loving cup to Bill ("Bojangles") Robinson as a token of appreciation for his unselfish services in putting over other benefit bills for the Brotherhood, the presentation being made by Alderman John Clifford Hawkins in behalf of Mr Dougherty and the porters' organization. Then "Bojangles," further heightening the interest, announced that he would personally give $20 in gold to that young dancer who most successfully put over the tap dance steps made famous by Robinson. Later, when this contest was put on, the prize was divided between "Blue" McAllister and Derby. From the "Blackbirds" came Elizabeth Welch, Tim Moore, (with his wife), Johnny Hudgins, Louis Deppe, S H. Dudley, Jr, Eddie Recor, "Peg-Leg" Bates, Manton Moreland, Earl ("Snake Hips") Tucker, the great "Bojangles," and the charming Adelaide Hall. Rollin Smith, understudy to Jules Bledsoe in Show Boat, sang the "Old Man River" song, supported by the male chorus directed by J Berni Barbour, assistant to Will Vodery, and J. Mardo Brown did his famous strumming drum major act. Noble Sissle sang one of his old wartime favorites and gave a dramatic song recitation of another, with electrical effects, that stirred the great audience. Amanda Randolph, from the Alhambra, presented first four young dancing misses not yet out of their teens, and then brought on her dancing chorus. Two young boys, not programmed, were called from the audience and electrified the people with some sensational dancing. Among the celebrities called to the stage for presentation was Frank Willon, former postman, now the star in 'Porgy', playing the title role, who briefly but felicitously acknowledged the greetings. Stratton and Wineglass, reunited after a long segregation, with other artists and introductions, one of the latter being the former heavyweight champion of the world, Jack Johnson, kept the audence seated until 4:20 a.m. The entire program was directed by Lew and Sol Jess on 'Blackbird' AGE WRITER SPEAKS TO DRAMA CLUB On Thursday night, March 21, the writer of this column was the guest in Newark, N.J., of the Livingston Players, a group of young folks interested in the drama, operating as part of the social work conducted by the Jewish Day Nursery and Neighborhood House, at which time he spoke to them briefly on The Negro in Drama and in the Stage. It was an interesting occasion. The invitation to speak to this group, comprised of thirty Hebrew girl and young men, all keen alert and exhibiting intimate knowledge of what the Negro is doing in all lines of cultural endeavor, came through Mrs Sylvia Smith Shapiro wife of Dr Ralph Neal Shapiro of 357 Hawthorne avenue. Following the address, the meeting was turned into a forum during which various individuals in the audience directed pertinent questions to the speaker with the intent of finding out what is being done by the more advanced culturally among Negroes to assist the lesser advantaged, to what extent the Negro dramatist is developing, and, incidentally, as to what is the reaction of the young educated Negro to the rendition of Negro Spirituals. After the meeting, the speaker and R. Lancaster, secretary-treasurer of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Potters, who accompanied him, were guests of Dr. and Mrs Shapiro and Mrs Shapiro mother, Mrs Smith at the Hawthorne avenue home. Vanzella Jones, Dramatic Reader, Is Heard The Three O' Clubs of Grace Congregational, Course, the Rev. A.C. Garner, past was responsible for the assembling of one of the largest audiences of the season for the recital of Venzella N.J. Jones, dramatic reader, with Lorenza Cole, pianist, as the assisting artist. Miss Jones has been heard on a number of occasions on mixed programs, and so there were a number of her admirers present in addition to those who were drawn by the promised attractiveness of her program. Miss Cole, a most promising young pianist who came to New York last fall as a fellowship student of the pianistorte at the Juilliard Musical Foundation Conservatory, played two number-Schumann's "Soaring," and C. Cleridge Lay's transcription of the piano of the Negro Spiritual "Sometimes I feel like a motherless child. She was handicapped by a piano that was not in the best condition and so did not achieve its original since." The principal numbers given by Miss Jones were two ones from Bavard Veillers' play, Within the Law, given by spatial arrangement with Samuel French, and a one act version of the Negro play "Goat Alley" by Ernest Culbertson, given by permission of the author. Both were given with fine effect, with a keen sense of the dramatic and with ample vocal variations. The atmosphere was somewhat disrupted, though, when Miss Jones interrupted the action between the first and second scenes of "Within the Law" to respond injudiciously to a rather lethargic encore. Other numbers were a Childish Impersonation, The One Legged Goose, Dunbars "When Malindy Sings" and "Widder Doodh." There was a distinguished and lengthy list of patrons and patronesses, and the promoting club's officers are Mrs. Gorttude Lerrest president, Mrs. Virginia Simpson Fronberger, secretary, Mrs. Catherine Pruitt, treasurer, Mrs. Stella Holmes, Mrs. Margaret Lutchett and Miss Ethel Ford.

As an editor, the open to every group. In appersons of the Pullman porters to be present at the celebrity DOWN CORRESPONDENT PRESIDENT GREEN'S ADVICE President Green of the American Federation of Labor is reported as having advised the porters to refrain from participating in the election for representatives to the forthcoming Pullman wage conference, when the subject of this meeting was recently brought to his attention. He is further reported as having made these remarks. "Collective bargaining can only be carried on between the representatives of two groups where there is perfect freedom of selection and action. Collective bargaining becomes a farce when so-called wage conferences are held between the Pullman Company and the representatives of the Company Union, which it created, controls and dominates." Now be that as may, it is difficult to perceive how the porters may consistently follow the labor man's advice just now with any profit or advantage to themselves. No matter how sincere one might be in one's sympathy with the main ambition of the porters—which is to have an operative brotherhood the same as other railroad workers—viewing the situation from the side lines, the counsel of the Federation chief in the present case strikes one as being purely and simply an expression. In the first place, this election is not being held for the purpose of determining whether the porters are in favor of having inside or outside representatives to represent them at the proposed conference. The matter of choice, so far as the class of representatives is concerned, doesn't enter into the case at all. It is merely that the management of the Pullman Company has decided to hold a conference with employee representatives on present industrial conditions and agreements. If it were an election to decide preference in the matter, then, such advice from Mr. Green would be as perfectly clear as a reverie call in a military camp. And it would be much easier to follow. In the second place, the only medium the porters have at present or dealing with the Pullman Company in the adjustment of wages and working conditions is through and by its Plan of Employee Representation, termed by labor leaders the company union. Now just suppose the porters were to follow Mr. Green's advice and refrain from participating in this election, what advantage would that be to them, as long as they have no other means of getting an audience with their employer? And then suppose their employer would say, "Well, if you men are not interested enough to elect your representatives, there will be no conference." What then? On course, the moral to this piece of advice might be all right, but for anything tangible in securing better wages and better working conditions from their employer, the porters cannot well follow it under the present situation. That they may be in a position to do so some day is a horse of another color. But until that day arrives it less, as though the same old roan will have to be ridden. In the meanwhile, the business of electing representatives to the proposed conference is in full swing, and from the votes cast, according to the tellers in charge of the balloting in the various eastern districts, a majority of the porters are voting. These may desire outside representation, but from their action, one gets the idea that its a case of a bird in hand. Porters' Voluntary Pension Association Starts Slowly Porters' Voluntary Pension Association Starts Slowly The Pullman Porters Voluntary Pension Association, a movement designed to aid the retired Pullman porter, has gotten off to a slow start. This doesn't exactly signify, however, that interest in the movement is lacking. Most every veteran porter the writer has approached on the subject thinks it a capital idea, but when asked if he has joined, the answer is invariably, "not yet." This attitude of waiting for the other fellow is traditional with the colored brother. Then, too, anything that means futurity other than sickness and death, is always a far-fetched eventuality with him. That this is an association which should have been formed among the porters years ago is too obvious to need repeating here. There isn't a Pullman district in the country in which one cannot find several retired porters whose old days might have been passed more comfortably if they had something coming to them other than the pension which the Pullman Company gives. In any way you view the situation, it denotes a woeful lack of foresight on the part of the porters as a group. Now that a movement to correct this condition is being started in two of the largest districts in the Pullman circle, the chances are that the porters in other districts will see the wisdom of the idea and follow suit. The retired veteran George L.Ford, is busily engaged in enrolling members in the new association in the Penn. Terminal and the New York districts. But this is a work that should not be left entirely to Mr. Ford, no matter how eager he is to do it. More youthful heads should carry the burden of such a work. But, as said, the colored brother is great for waiting to see what the other fellow is going to do. Or, he prefers to let George do it. The Celebration To Mr. and Mrs. Moore Among the citizens of New York and its environs, who have been invited from every walk of life to attend the celebration which is to be seen at the 369th Infantry Armory on Tuesday evening, April 9, in honor of the golden wedding of Mr. and Mrs. Fred R. Moore, are members of the Pullman porters group. Every member of the group is invited to participate in this tribute to a couple of whom the race was well feel proud. A note from his domestic relations as an ideal husband and father, Mr. Moore's sterling characteristics in fighting for the betterment of his life in speaking his mind, irrespective of what others may think, and in helping to help the members of every group within the race, places him in the position of being New York's most democratic citizen. An audience with him is just as readily granted to the humble laborer as is to the wealthy capitalist. As an editor, the columns of The Age have always been open to every group. In appreciation of these outstanding traits, members of the Pullman porters group who can take an effort to be present at the celebration OUT OF TOWN CORRESPONDENCE N.

Only be carried on between the report there is perfect freedom of selection, being becomes a farce when so-called between the Pullman Company and the Union, which it created, controls and is difficult to perceive how the portman man's advice just now with all attention them at the proposed conference is the class of representatives is close at all. It is merely that the man has decided to hold a conference on present industrial conditions and to present preference in the matter Green would be as perfectly clear as itap. And it would be much easier to medium the porters have at present company in the adjustment of wages and by its Plan of Employee Representation is the company union. Now just sit Mr. Green's advice and refrain from that advantage would that be to their means of getting an audience with their employer would say, "Well, ought to elect your representatives, then then? Is piece of advice might be all right during better wages and better working, the porters cannot well follow it they may be in a position to do it color. But until that day arrives a man will have to be ridden less of electing representatives to the party, and from the votes cast, accord the balloting in the various eastern districts are voting.
