First AwardDr. Crump Medical Scholarship To Myra Logan . A REAL MOVIE PAPER Goss Into More Humor Amount Than Any Other Paper Published. The New York Age First Scholarship Medicine Is Granted Miss Myra Logan At New York Homeopathic Medical College Created By Dr. Walter G. Crump, Distinguished Surgeon, Who Set Aside Income From $10,000 As A Perpetual Scholarship Fund The first award of a scholarship created by Dr. Walter Gray Crump for a four years' course of study at the New York Homeopathic Medical College and Flower Hospital has been made to Miss Myra Logan, twenty-one year old daughter of Warren Logan, former vice-principal and treasurer of Tuskegee Institute. In establishing this scholarship, Dr. Crump has set a precedent, as it is the first of its kind in this country granted by a medical college, and a further precedent is set in the naming of a young woman as the recipient. To Specialize in Psychiatrix. Miss Logan took her A. B. degree at Atlanta University, and her master's degree in psychology from Columbia University in 1928. It was while doing her graduate work at Columbia that she became interested in psychiatry, and it is this branch of medicine in which she will specialize. It is noted that the present-day courts are emphasizing the importance of psychiatry in solving crime problems, and Miss Logan is of the opinion that she will be of vital aid to the race by entering this field of endeavor. Miss Logan is a sister-in-law to Dr E. P. Roberts of 130 West 100th street, where she makes her home. Since taking her master's degree, she has been engaged in Y W. C. A. work at Hartford, Conn, which position she is, resigning front to take up her medical studies. Dr. Roberts, who was a commissioner of educations of New York City under the Mayor John Purroy Mitchell administration, graduated from the New York Homeopathic Medical College and Flower Hospital, class of 1894, and holds the degrees of master of arts and doctor of laws from Lincoln University, of which school he is also a trustee. One of Country's Eminent Surgeons. Dr Walter Gray Crump, donor of the scholarship is one of the country's eminent surgeons and is credited with having rendered more sympathetic cooperation in the last thirty years to the Negro medical profession than any other white physician in New York or elsewhere. He also has been active in the advancement of Negro welfare and education. This interest is directly attributable to the surgeon's father, Samuel Crump, who was an active abolitionist and maintained one of the first underground railway stations by means of which a goodly number of slaves obtained freedom in the North. The elder Crump spoke from lecture platforms with Susan B. Anthony in the efforts to secure woman's rights. "The Negro is at least one-tenth of the country's population," said Dr Crump in giving reasons why he established the scholarship "Every year from 4,000 to 4,500 white students are graduated from medical colleges, while there are less than one hundred colored students receiving diplomas. I believe a larger number of colored men and women should be turned out. "There are only a few Negro women physicians, and for this reason I was inclined to make the first recipient of the scholarship a female. It is becoming increasingly difficult for men of the race to enter our medical colleges, their economic condition proving to be one of the chief deterrents. I am hoping what I have done will be an incentive to others to establish scholarships in various medical schools throughout the country." Dr. Crump is professor of surgery at the Homeopathic Medical College and Flower Hospital, consulting surgeon at the New York Orthalmu Hospital, New York. Yankers Homeopathic and Maternal Hospital, Tarrytown Hospital, South Side Hospital, Bay Shore, L.A., and consulting gynecologist of the Jamaica Hospital, United Hospital Port Chester and Mount Verde Hospital. Is Trustee of Howard University He is a trustee of Howard University, a member of the Board of Directors of Vincent Sanatorium, and the last four years has held special clinics at the University's Memorial Hospital Institute, Alabama, in with annual pilgrimages each year. Motion, principal of the Institute; Dr. Walter Miller; and Dr. E. P. Robbins have named trustees of the fund which will be kept in Chester Jones Is New Rochelle's 1st Negro Policeman New Rochelle, N. Y.-At the meeting of the Police Commissioners here last Thursday night, Chester Jones, a Negro, who stood near the top of the list, was appointed to the police force of this city. It is the first time a person of color has been appointed a policeman in New Rochelle. Committing on its appointment, "The Standard Star," local daily, wrote "The idea of having a colored policeman in New Rochelle will cause comment purely because it is something new to us. In New York City they have many colored policemen and the appointment of a colored policemen there excites no more comment than does the appointment of a white man to the force. If you went over the New York Police records you would find some of the most brilliant chapters. on valor written about the names of colored policemen Some of them have died in the performance of their duty, exhibiting a heroism never excelled by any of their white brothers." W. VA. SOLONS GIVE $625,000 TO NEGRO COLLEGE State College Gets Its Largest Budget From State Legislature Institute, W. Va.—The West Virginia Legislature has pased a budget bill which carried in it appropriations amounting to $625,000 for the West Virginia State College This is the largest sum the legislature has ever given the college for a single biennial period. The distribution of the amount is as follows For salaries of officers, teachers and employees, $280,000; For current general expenses, $105,000; For repairs and improvements, $70,000 For vocational training building, $120,000; For campus and grounds improvement, $15,000; For general expenses (subject to collections and not to exceed the amount) $15,000. Early in the session of the legislature the name of the institution was changed from the West Virginia Collegiate Institute to West Virginia State College Provision was made in the law changing the name to enlarge the scope of the work of the college so as to include graduate and professional work. President John W Davis has announced an approach to the study of improving vocational opportunities for Negroes through training which breaks from traditional methods of so-called trade or industrial training. A vocational training building will be erected for this purpose. Plans have been completed for the publication of a Journal of Negro Education and the inclusion of the high school in the Department of Education to provide proper teaching training facilities for the Department of Education. The budget allowance for the college makes provision for new teachers, who will relieve present faculty members of burdensome teaching programs A CORRECTION The names of the following were unintentionally omitted from the list of subscribers to the Golden Wedding of Alderman and Mrs. Fred R.

The announcement is also made by the Commissioner that construction has been started on the installation of lights on Seventh avenue, and will be rushed to completion as soon as possible. A. & P. GROCERY ASKED TO GIVE NEGRO A CHANCE Official In Conference With Citizens To Get Justice For Clerk A. & P. GROCERY ASKED TO GIVE NEGRO A CHANCE Official In Conference With Citizens To Get Justice For Clerk As a result of the treatment accorded Arthur N. Jones, Negro clerk in the Atlantic and Pacific Tea Company's grocery store at 473 Lenox avenue, a citizen's committee was organized Tuesday to work for the opening up of opportunities for Negroes in this city. Mr Jones, who has been a faithful and efficient employee of this company for almost three years, was informed two weeks ago that the company had decided to retain only those men eligible for promotion and that he should seek work elsewhere. This Mr Jones did but in the meantime he communicated with his pastor, the Rev William Lloyd pastor of St James Presbyterian Church. He also informed customers of the store of the edict, and they unknowing to him got up a petition urging his retention. Rey Imes wrote A. V. Beiber, general manager of this district for a conference on the matter. Mr Beiber was unable to see Rey Imes at his office but agreed to send J W Stafford superintendent of the district, to see the minister at his home, 200 West 137th street Confer With Official. A group of people living in the vicinity of the Lenox avenue store were asked to meet with Rev Imes and the superintendent Tuesday afternoon and several responded. Mrs Irena Morman' Blackstone, well known in cign and political circles, with Mrs Florence P. Browne undertaker, and Mrs B Mitchell of 511 Lenox avenue, were present, along with William E. Clark of The New York Age. With Dr Imes as spokesman, the grievance of the committee against the cham store grocery was explained and he, Mr Stafford, was urged to point out to his company the wisdom of giving larger opportunity to Negroes in districts where their stores are supported by colored people. Mr Stafford admitted that Mr Jones' record had been good and promised to take up the subject of his promotion to the position of manager of the store with higher officials in the company. He interviewed he would arrange an interview for the committee with Mr Beiber on the matter. A temporary organization was formed with Rev Imes as chairman and William E. Clark as secretary NEW YORK, N. Y., SATURDAY, APRIL 20, 1929 Founder's Day Program At Tuskegee Institute Marked By Address Of Dr. John H. Finley, Editor N. Y. Times Tuskegee Institute, Ala.—"No program for Negro advancement which does not include those fundamental principles laid down by Booker T. Washington and carried on by Dr. Robert R. Moton, present head of Tuskegee Institute, is complete." This is the opinion of Dr. John H. Finley, newspaperman, educator, poet and public servant, who delivered the annual Founder's Day address here Sunday afternoon. "The work that Dr Washington did for the Negro is comparable to that which George Washington did for the country." Dr Finley said. The speaker is executive editor of the New York Times, and made the visit to Tuskegee Institute in fulfilment of a promise to Dr. Washington made twenty years ago, and another to Dr Moton twelve years ago. With this his first trip to the Institute, he redeemed these promises was approved by the Board of Trustees at the meeting here Saturday afternoon. April 6. This covers maintenance and operation of the plant. The Board also approved a course in Public Health Nursing which will be offered in the near future. The course is designed to train young women in public health nursing for service both in urban centers and in rural districts. This Progress of Negro Dr. Finley recounted the progress the Negro has made in this country, stating that which he has made in the past ten years surpassed all that in the preceding fifty Tuskegee Institute, he said, is the supreme achievement of the Negro on his own behalf Founder's Day is observed each Spring at Tuskegee Institute in commemoration of the birth of Booklet T. Washington who established the Institute in 1881 The address on this occasion is delivered by some notable leader. Chief Justice Taft, Dr. Edwin Mims of Danderyt University, Emmet, O'Malal, governor of Alabama, Dr. James H. Dillard, Dr. Jeanes and Slater Fund boards and Sir Wilfred T' Grenfell of Labrador, have been speakers in former years. A Rugged Character. The speaker was presented by Dr. William Jay Schieffeln of New York chairman of the Board of Trustees, as a man of "smooth ideals and rugged character that he would be elected first citizen of New York by those who know. He is not only an educator of distinction, but a public servant of marked ability as well as a poet and an editor." The meeting was presided over by Dr. Moton. Preceding the address was a brief musical program by the Institute orchestra, choir and student body. March To Chapel , Led by the Institute Band, the visitors, faculty and students of the school marched from the Carnegie Library where they assembled, to the Institute chapel where the exercise were held. The line of march led across the White Hall lawn followed the Pinchurst road proceeded down the long walk where they bury bodies, and stood at attention while the trustees, faculty, alumni and other visitors passed through. Rabbi Preaches Sermon "All God's chillun got wings" according to Rabbi Louis Binstock of New Orleans, who preached the sermon in the Institute chapel Sunday morning, taking his text from the lines of the familiar Negro Spiritual and from the Biblical story of Jacob's ladder "These are the wings of genius, of ability of power to rise above the commonplace to heights of mobility and idealism. Like the angels Jacob saw, we too are possessed of wings in our souls, in our bodies, in our minds. These wings hold unsuspected power ready and willing to serve us. It is up to us to make full use of them, not to let them become weak and ineffectual through lack of use. If we use them they will enable us to do the seemingly impossible, to rise above ourselves. We need but to reach down into the depths of our souls, bodies and mind, to call forth these wings." Rabbi Binstock urged the students not to neglect their abilities because they meet with obstacles Happiness can be achieved, be said, if we conquer the world within which is a more difficult world to conquer than that without. To do this we must have supreme death in ourselves and although all of us do not have it in us to be geniuses we can extend the field of our accomplishment through the use of our wings. As examples of those who, though handicapped, used their wings, the rabbit cured Helen Kellar, Cervantes, John Bunyan and Oscar Wilde who did their best writings while imprisoned; Cellini, the mealthai Italian sculptor; and Marcus Aurelius, the Roman emperor. Trustees Vote Budget. A budget of $583,000 for 1920:30 was approved by the Board of Trustees at the meeting here Saturday afternoon. April 6.

"The history of education of the Negro in America rates few names if any, higher than that of Booker T Washington." Dean Whittaker declared "To him, more than to any other individual, are due the innovations and the distinctions which have placed Tuskegee from its founding in the front rank of influence and service. To him is due the credit for the creation of a philosophy of education which has made a distinct contribution to the educational practice and thought of the world." Truateea Arrive.

Lewis Chicago, Ill.—To clear up the public's mind in regard to the recent charges that resulted into the indictment of Hon. Oscar DePriest, Congressman elect, the writer immediately sought an interview with Sheridan A. Bruseaux, chief investigator for the Special Grand Juries, who was charged with the indictment of the Congressman-elect. Congressman DePriest Is Seated Without Expected Opposition Washington, D.C —Despite dire predictions that there would be strong opposition to the seating of Congressman Oscar DePriest of Chicago, he was sworn in as a member of the Seventy-first Congress without any opposition Monday, April 15 Congressman DePriest took the oath of office with 407 other members-elect, who were present at the opening of the extra session. The oath was administered by Speaker Nicholas Longworth The indictment against Congressman DePriest in Chicago was dismissed Saturday at the request of the State's Attorney and this caused whatever opposition there was so his being seated to fade. Congressman DePriest represents the First Congressional District of Illinois, succeeding the late Martin B Madden. He is the first member of his race to occupy a seat in the halls of Congress in 28 years. The last one was George Henry White of North Carolina, who was a member of the fifty-fifth and fifty-sixth Congresses AFRICAN STUDENTS SCORE RIVALRY OF RELIGIONS Students Union In Session at Gammon Seminary Speak Out AFRICAN STUDENTS SCORE RIVALRY OF RELIGIONS Students Union In Session at Gammon Seminary Speak Out Atlanta, Ga. — Denominational competition in the African mission fields occasions waste of effort, cause unfortunate divisions among the people, and handicaps Christianity in its conflict with Mohammedanism, according to E. Edwards, of Murray Town, Sierra Leone, West Africa, speaking at the annual meeting of the African Students Union of America, in session at Gammon Theological Seminary, this city. Even families are being divided along religious lines, he said, sometimes as many as three denominations he represented in a single family. He expressed the opinion that some means should be found by which the various churches might make a united appeal to the people of mission lands. In reply it was pointed out by Dr. E. N. Donahough of the Methodist Foreign Mission Board, that means of the mission boards of America are seeking to obviate the difficulty complained of by the division of territory and by union enterprises, and that in certain of the mission lands the native Christians of the different denominations are beginning to unite on a common basis. Discussing the question "What sort of missionaries are needed?" Prof. E. N. Jones of Freetown Sierra Leone, expressed the opinion that the type of missionaries needed today are those who come as friends and advisers, rather than as autocratic ecclesiastical dictators. H K Nyabonga, of Howard University son of a hereditary Ugandan king presided over the meeting, which was attended by a dozen students from various parts of the African continent. The school of missions of Gammon Seminary participated also. All persons who have pledged contributions to the Monarch 45 Band Fund for free open-air park concerts during the summer, but who have not paid their pledges, are asked to send in the $1 or more pledged, at once to the treasurer of the Pund, Alderman Fred R. Moore at The Age office, 230 West 135 street, so that necessary arrangements can be completed. The writer asked Mr. Bruseaux to give him a true statement as to all facts in regard to the recent indictment by the Special Grand Juries. Bruseaux Makes Statement. Mr Bruseaux reluctantly gave an interview for the purpose of clearing the public's mind, so that the public at large could have absolute confidence in the newly elected Congressman, inasmuch as he is representing the First District of Illinois, and also the fifteenth million Negroes in the United States of America. Mr Bruseaux stated that Mr. DePriest's indictment came about solely by individuals who were formerly connected with him, and at the present time affiliated with him and his political organization, who saw fit to bring witnesses and information into the office of the Special Grand Juries, unsolicited and without pay, and then it became his duty as chief investigator to present said facts to the Assistant Attorney General for its presentation before the Special Grand Juries which resulted in his indictment. Ask Dismissal of Charges Mr Brusseaux stated that subsequent to that time, by virtue of the power and authority vested in him as chief investigator by the Attorney-General of the State of Illinois, he had seen fit to investigate the said charges that resulted in Mr DePriest's indictment, and upon his investigation, he had found the charges unwarranted and some of the witnesses thoroughly unresponsible, which resulted into his recommendation that the present charges against the Congressman be dismissed. Upon these recommendations that resulted from the investigation, the Hon. Frank J. Lousch, Chief Special Prosecutor under the Attorney General and now First Assistant State's Attorney, immediately asked the Hon. Judge Lynch of the Superior Court to dismiss the said charges. Mr Brusseaux stated that upon his investigation, which was thorough and complete into the charges that the Hon. Oscar DePriest was indicted upon, that he had found him absolutely clean and fully worthy of the confidence placed in him in his newly assigned duties as Congressman of the United States from the First District of Illinois. It may be remembered that Hon Oscar DePriest was indicted in the month of August, 1928, by the Special Grand Juries on a charge of conspiracy, which resulted in grave concern among our group throughout America, and this is the first time that Mr Bruseaux, who is more thoroughly familiar with said indictment by virtue of the fact of his office as chief investigator, than any other individual, has seen fit to give out any interview concerning the charges against the Congressman elect. $58,049 GIVEN BY RACE TOWARDS THE LIVINGSTONE FUND Price Memorial Fund Is Now $174,949 Of The Required $250,000 President W J Trent of Livingstone College, Salisbury, N.

For Information See R E SIMON 760 East 222nd Street Investigation of Affairs of Grand Lodge Inspired By Desire To Rid Order of Wilson's Despotic Reign Head of Detective Agency Tells Reasons For His Employment To Uncover and Expose Exploitation of Order and Its Resources Chicago, Ill.—His investigation of the affairs of the Improved Benevolent and Protective Order of the World was made for the ultimate purpose of rescuing the order from Grand Exalted Ruler J. Finley Wilson, declares Sheridan A. Brusseaux, head of the Keystone National Detective Agency, in reply to questions of newspaper men 25,289 MEMBERS 75% Under 30 Years of Age Brooklyn, June 9, 1853, the Y. M. C. A. has served thousands upon thousands of young men and boys. Through 75 years these members have come—and gone. The Association has built up their bodies, developed their minds, strengthened their characters and helped them climb the ladder toward success. Today there are 25,289 members in the 17 branches of the Brooklyn and Queens Y. M. C. A. Seventy-five per cent of these members are under 30 years of age. Six thousand of them are boys under 18 years. They represent many religious faiths. In addition to its members, the Y. M. C. A. also serves the enlisted men of Army and Navy, and merchant seamen. Thousands of men and boys outside the membership are also reached through community activities. The Y. M. C. A. through seventeen branches and five camps seeks to bring its service within the reach of all the boys and young men of Brooklyn and Queens. He was selected to make the investigation, he revealed Because it was, believed that he could, better than anyone else, uncover and expose the exploitation of the order and its resources by the grand exalted ruler for the sole object of perpetuating himself in office. Grand Exalted Ruler Wilson has been in office since 1922. He was elected in Newark, N J., and is closing his sixth term. No other grand exalted ruler ever served more than two terms of one year each. A Depleted Treasury The only officer who can order an audit of the books and records of the grand lodge by a certified public accountant is the grand exalted ruler Mr Brusseaux explained. But Mr Wilson has no desire for that kind of an audit, the investigator said, because it would show a depleted grand lodge treasury as the result of wasteful expenditures. The grand exalted ruler is satisfied with the yearly audit made by the grand lodge auditors, none of whom is a certified public accountant. Incidentally Mr Brusseaux directed attention to the recent appointment by the grand exalted ruler of Charles A. Marshall, a chiropractor, of Washington, D.C., as a grand auditor to succeed Helyl C. Payne who has been exempted from his lodge. Mr Marshall is some kind of personal employee of Mr. Wilson. The report of the former grand treasurer, James T. Carter, at the grand lodge session held in Chicago last August, was recalled Mr. Carter's report showed that the cash balance reported at that grand lodge session was only $34, 122 54 The cash balance at the Brooklyn, June 9 thousands upon th Through 75 ye gone.

MUNSON President close of the New York grand lodge session in 1927 after the sum of $16,076 was used for the expenses of the convention was $56,190. At the close of the grand lodge session in Cleveland in 1926 the cash balance was $70,730. The disbursements for the grand lodge year from August 15, 1928, totaled $44,013.45 a record sum This does not include educational fund, as previously mentioned. To Stir Public Opinion The results of the investigation were made public, Mr Bruseaux stated, in order that public opinion might be exerted to force correction of abuses of authority, and also that the rank and file of the order might be informed of the true condition of affairs of the order and the arbitrary procedure of the grand lodge with a view of keeping himself in office. The results of the investigation could not be communicated to the lodges. No member would dare transmit to a lodge a communication setting forth the facts of the investigation, Mr Bruseaux charges, he would be expelled from the order. Mr Wilson had enacted, the investigator pointed out, what is known as "the sedition law" Under it any member who communicates anything in writing to a lodge or gives information to the public press that tends to create opposition to his administration is deemd guilty of sedition. The penalty is suspension or expulsion from the order The Defeat of Bates The men who caused the investigation to be made are members 25,289 MEMBERS UNDER 30 YEARS SINCE it was June 9, 1853, the Y.

Mr. Brusseaux cited the case of George E. Bates, former grand secretary. Mr. Bates was beaten for re-election in Chicago, although he had been an efficient officer for more than 15 years. He refused to be a puppet of Grand Exalted Ruler Wilson, Mr. Brusseaux, stated, and although every past grand exalted ruler at the Chicago convention testified to his efficiency and loyalty to the order he was defeated by the vote of delegates who had been placed on the grand lodge payrole as committee members and were carrying out the instructions of the grand exalted ruler. Mr. Wilson had elected to the office, Mr. Brusseaux said, J. B. Kelly of Birmingham, Ala., whose only qualifications for the office was that he had been a postman for 16 years. Mr. Wilson is not inefficient, said Mr. Brusseaux, but finds it necessary to dissipate grand lodge funds, remove competent officers and replace them with inexperienced men and run the business of the order in a loose manner in order to maintain a political organization within a fraternal order for his perpetuation in office. Easter Egg Hunt For Utopia House Kiddies For the first time in the history of Harlem, an Easter egg hunt was held in St. Nicholas Park, on Wednesday, April 3. Approximately six hundred children were made happy by this Easter frolic. The eggs were donated by wholesale dealers and dyed at the Upto House. Before the hunt began, many games were played on the grass. When the children's excitement could be restrained no longer, they were allowed to scramper up the hill and search for the eggs among the rocks and foliage. Photographers from three local newspapers snapped this impressive sight. The children who found the largest number of eggs received a gift Amanda Williams 10 years old found 13 eggs and received a green pocket book. Mattie Gorham, 9 years old, found 9 eggs and won a jumping rope. Ruth Kent 12 years old, found 5 eggs and received two neckties as a reward. The chaperones who hid the eggs and helped with the general supervision were Mistes Ethel Harris Elveter Slagle, Elizabeth Merpitt Dorothy Spraggins and Hermine Brown, Mestes Magertha Walker, Rosalie Jackson, Minnie Taylor, Bessive Bearden, Grant, Sidie Holley, Pennie Woodruff, Davis Mr Brooks and others. Cooperation was received from the police and park officials for the event. THREE ATLANTA COLLEGES TO AFFILIATE IN ACADEMIC WORK Announcement April 3 That Atlanta University, Morehouse and Spelman Colleges Will Join In Plan, A. U. Doing Only College Work Atlanta, Ga.—Completing the affiliation into a single university system of three important local Negro colleges, Atlanta University, Morehouse and Spelman Colleges, the following have been elected as a board of trust of the new system, which is to be known as Atlanta University; Dean Sage, Mrs. Alice Coleman, James Weldon Johnson, William Travers Jerome jr., of New York; Kendall-Weisiger, Rev. J. M. Nabrit, Dr. Will W. Alexander, Dr. John Hope, Miss Florence Read and Dr. Myron W. Adams, of Atlanta. Five additional members are to be elected. Mr. Sage was chosen president of the board, and Dr. John Hope was unanimously elected president of the University. The arrangement provides that each institution shall continue to operate much as at present under its own board of trust and administrative staff. The principal immediate change is that Atlanta University will cease to admit freshmen, and as soon as the present under-graduate classes can be taken care of, will give itself solely to graduate and professional work, the other two institutions throwing their strength and influence into the development of this great school.

No freshmen are to be admitted next fall, and as rapidly as the present undergraduate classes can be taken care of the university is to become an institute of graduate and professional the graduate and professional schools. The board of trustees of Atlanta University has been reorganized to include representatives nominated respectively by the boards of trustees of Morehouse College and Spelman College and additional members to be elected at large. The invitation to Dr. Hope to become president of Atlanta University contemplates his remaining as President of Morehouse College, in response to the insistence of the Morehouse board of trustees, to complete the present endowment campaign of that institution and the points for strengthening the college growing out of the campaign. Forty Years At A. U. President Mayron W. Adams, Atlanta University has been pending for more than a year, will continue in that office until the 30th of June.

Each institution retains its own Board of Trustees and own management. With their representation on the Board of Atlanta University, all three institutions will throw their strength and influence into the development of a strong graduate school which will offer Negro students opportunity for graduate study which has not before been available.

Brown of Ohio as the new Postmaster General, the appointment was received is the choice of another Ohio politician to handle the department, which is the goal of many office seekers. But an article in the New York Herald Tribune of a recent Sunday, revealed Mr. Brown is a rather unusual type of the Ohio politician. Although he was a member of the State Committee as far back as 1898, and in politics in the days when Senators Hanna, Foraker and Dick were active political forces, he was in favor of the Roosevelt movement in 1903. Besides being in politics, Mr. Brown was also in business, growing out of membership in his father's law firm. He also gave a lot of time to sports, especially yachting. He is said to love camping although he is no hunter. He is also fond of raising poultry. He broke with Senator Foraker of Brownsville fame, who wanted the Ohio indorsement for Presidential nomination in 1908 and joined the Taft forces. He became regular again and when Harding was elected acted as floor leader in the House. He was one of the first of the "regulars" to appreciate the possibilities of Herbert Hoover as a Presidential possibility, having served under him as assistant secretary of the Department of Commerce Now he is the head of the Post Office Department with three hundred and sixty thousand employees, one of the biggest business concerns in the world. There are over fifteen thousand postmasters under his control and the expenditures of the system ran up to nearly three-quarters of a billion dollars last year. Most surprising of all, it is announced that he is going to conduct the department as a business and not as a political organization. It is believed by those who know him, that he, if anyone, ought to be able to do that very thing, without at the same time training those political relationships which are just as essential as honest business efficiency to the success of an administration under our American system of government. If the new Postmaster General is this type of politician it will be expected that no discrimination in appointments or promotions will be permitted under his rule in this department COUNTING BY COLORS The New York Evening Journal, one of the yellowest of the Hearst publications, had an editor all day last week, which it received the fine old stump of revising the British Lion's tail in a style that would have pleased Chicago's master, if he had seen it.

In which it revived the fine old stunt of twisting the British Lion's tail in a style that would have pleased Chicago's mayor, if he had seen it. The editorial was based on a cartoon reproduced from a Glasgow paper, under which the Journal printed "Says Uncle Sam to Madame Britanna 'Will you please move over'" The Scotch editor's lettering was Uncle Sam "Any objection to my ruling the waves along with you, my dear" Britanna "It's a frightfully expensive idea, Uncle Sam, you know" The Journal editor insisted that without knowing it, the Scotch editor had offered a good suggestion, and inquired if there was any good reason why Uncle Am should not rule at least his share of the waves. He continued twisting the till a little more The Journal editor insisted that without knowing it, the Scotch editor had offered a good suggestion, and inquired if there was any good reason why Uncle Sam should not rule at least his share of the waves. He continued twisting the fail a little more. For several hundred years our British friends have been singing "Rule Britannia, Britannia Rule, the Wake, Britons Never, Never Shall Be Slaves." There is no reason why Britons SHOULD be slaves, every reason why they Should continue free and cheerful. But is there any good reason why they should rule the waves to the exclusion of other nations or at least to the exclusion of Uncle Sam? This, also, is quite a country. We have more than twice as many white men as Britain has, more than twice as much gold, all though that doesn't make much difference about ten times the industrial efficiency of Britain which DOES make a difference. We don't want anything that belongs to treat Britain. We have enough. And that is the situation with our British friends. Why shouldn't Madame Britannia move over a little and allow Uncle Sam do his part of the wave ruling. Now, why did the Journal editor do is counting only in regard to the comparative number of white men that the two countries have?

Doesn't he know that black men make as good cannon歼- der as whites? In case of a war provoked by such jingoistic manifestoes as those issued by the Journal, black Americans would be drafted the same as whites; and in some localities a little quicker, perhaps. Or was the Journal editor thinking of the fact that Great Britain might draw upon a vast number of black soldiers from her colonial possessions, that might make the comparison as to numbers more even? It is hard to guess what motive lies behind a yellow journalist's utterances, when he begins to count by colors. WHERE THE RACE IS GAINING. A few weeks ago there appeared in that venerable publication, which claims to have been founded by Benjamin Franklin, the Saturday Evening Post of Philadelphia, an editorial article concerning "Racial Problems." Although venerable from the point of age, the Post is alert and modern enough when it comes to furnishing up-to-date information on modern achievements. As a rule it has kept away from the subject of the Negro, except as a target for ridicule and burlesque by such writers as Octavus Roy Cohen and Hugh Wiley. These two have exploited the black ex-soldiers as devotees of Lady Luck and the adventures of a mythical company of moving picture actors from Birmingham at great length. But the editorial referred to treated of the progress of the Negro from a serious standpoint and in a detached and dispassionate manner, that showed an appreciation of the advances made by the race along the various lines of American civilization. It characterized these multi-ling signs of progress as gratifying to those who appreciate the magnitude of American racial problems. The most notable and tangible feature of improvement among the race was pronounced to deal with the basic factor of health. The report of one of the great life insurance companies, which has two and a half million Negroes among its policy holders, was quoted as showing that their mortality rate had fallen 17.3 per cent in the period from 1911 to 1927. It was added that health gains among the whites far exceeded those among the colored, but the gains of the latter were more striking because of the presumptive predictions made twenty years ago as to the possible extinction of the race by disease. This decrease of mortality was accomplished in spite of the world war, the ravages of influenza, and a migration movement that took thousands of the race from a farming life to the congested conditions of the great cities, where they suffered from inadequate housing. But for this last condition it was thought that the improvement in mortality would have been greater. As a result of this improvement, the Philadelphia editor predicted that "with the cessation of immigration, it begins to look as if Negroes might multiply, even in the North, more than whites." He added During the past decade in New York City, Negro population has increased four times as rapidly as the white. It is probable that nearly one and a quarter million Negroes moved from the south to the North between 1915 and 1928, although not all remained. The conditions are plainly such that the economy, and social advancement of the Negro, as well as his physical condition becomes of the first importance. Tremendous progress economically, educationally and culturally is taking place. Since 1917 there has been a gain of 550 per cent in the number of Negroes in colleges. For every 10,000 Negroes, nineteen are attending college, as compared with ninety whites among the same number. More medical, dental and other technical education, is needed, and the Negro business man still lacks anything like as much training for his work as the white business man has. But the opportunities are increasing. The editor admits sharp differences of opinion exist as to the direction which the development of the race should take, but declared that assent must be given to the proposition that economic and educational advances are a continuing necessity. Insisting that the race must rise upon the prosaic basis of economic strength and fitness to their work, he linches his argument by closing as follows: "Only upon this foundation will either white or colored ever be able to see any answers to the more baffling questions of race prejudice and of unequal political status." That is a conclusion which must be accepted as in keeping with the fundamental principles upon which the progress of the nation is based. The present problem of the Negro is largely of an economical character, in securing adequate preparation for his life work and in obtaining market value for that work with the opportunity to engage in it.

A COMMUNITY CELEBRATION It is seldom that a community joins so hollowheartedly in a testimonial to any of its members as was shown in the celebration of the golden wedding of Mr. and Mrs. Fred R. Moore one evening last It is seldom that a community joins so wholeheartedly in a testimonial to any of its members as was shown in the celebration of the golden wedding of Mr. and Mrs. Fred R. Moore one evening last week. Of course, there were a great many factors that tended to give this occasion more than the usual significance of 4 a social gathering, marking the fiftieth milestone of a matrimonial partnership. The public career of the groom and his official position as one of the city fathers, because of his place on the Board of Aldermen, added to the public interest of the celebration. But the drawing magnet that brought many, people from outside the boundaries of Harlem was the personality of the man and woman who celebrated a half century of married life. This was the force that drew the members of the community from the Bronx to the extreme limits of Brooklyn and Queens boroughs, with a few from Jersey towns added, to join in congratulating the married couple on their wedding anniversary. The personnel of the gathering ranged from the smallest school child of Harlem to the chief magistrate of the greatest city on this continent. Besides the Mayor of New York, there were the President of the Board of Aldermen and other members of that body, the Police Commissioner and other high police officials, the chairman of the Republican County Committee, State legislators and other officials. The clergy was well represented by leading ministers of the various denominations while the legal and medical professions were present in many of their leading members. The other professions and the business world were also in evidence, there being hardly any occupation or industry that did not have representation. The popular character of the testimonial was also manifested in the variety of colors and races represented at the tables and in the galleries. That their interest was genuine and not a perfunctory performance of an onerous task, was shown by the fact that all of the participants remained throughout the evening, the official speakers keeping their places after they had testified to their appreciation of the occasion and added their tributes to the character and public service of the guest of the evening. A notable phase of the occasion was the absence of any reference to race or color in the speeches made by the speakers of both races. The tributes paid were based on the work done by a man among men, willing to serve his fellows without regard to race or color. There was no laudation of the man whom they desired to honor merely because he was a Negro, neither was there any talking down to "your people". It was purely a matter of one man having completed a matrimonial cycle of half a century while rendering useful service to his fellows, that elicited the congratulations and good wishes of the members of the community that knew and appreciated that service. This golden wedding celebration was truly a community gathering that was participated in by all classes of the community. It was notable for many significant features, some of which we have noted as a departure from the ordinary tendency of cut and dried social celebrations. There was something spontaneous and genuine about the affair given at the Armory, despite its hugeness, that made all who attended it feel glad that they were a part of so big-hearted a community as that represented on this occasion. The celebration and the testimonial that accompanied it not only honored the recipients of the tribute, but reflected equal honors upon those who sponsored the movement and those who participated in it and added to its successful issue. Above all, it showed that New York is truly a big city. As Mayor Walker aptly said, "it is great because it is cosmopolitan, because the measure of a man in this community must be his character and ability. We do not care from where you came, but where you are going and how you are going to live when you get there." ```markdown ``` TWO RACIAL VIEWPOINTS The Washington correspondent of the Greensboro Daily News seemed inclined to take a somewhat humorous view of the action of Representative Pritchard of North Carolina, who wrote vacating the office assigned him in the House Office Building, when he learned that a Negro Congressman from Chicago had been assigned offices next door. According to the correspondent, this left the Republican member from North Carolina "on the sidewalk," or to create there on his arrival. Over a column was given to a discussion of "the embarrassing situation" caused by the election of Oscar DePriest to Congress. The old bugaboo of what would happen if his wife or daughter were to appear at a meeting of the Congressional club of women was revived, together with this fuss over putting a North Carolina member in an adjoining office. It was suggested that Mr Pritchard "should have a heart, and should have some judgment, if he is to play a part in national affairs." Among things that he should learn is to "rofram from rocking the beat or soiling the hears." Ly ARREST OF GHANDI IN CALCUTTA IS MARKED BYBRUTAL POLICE HOOLIGANISM Calcutta, India.—Shradhananda Park in Calcutta became the scene of police hooliganism on Monday evening, March 4, when "regulation lathies" (armed thick stick with iron ends) were freely used on the absolutely peaceful crowd that assembled there to hear Mahatama Gandhi, the leader of the passive non-resistance movement dently the North Carolina lily-white has done both of these things. The telegram sent by Representative LaGuardia of New York, saying that he would be very glad to have the office, adjoining the one assigned DePriest, was hailed by this correspondent as affording a possible solution of the problem and relieving the strain all around. He thought it likely that other members will take similar action, because the Negro vote is a real factor in New York elections. He added that in the Pritch- It had been decided to burn foreign clothes at the meeting. But in the afternoon on Monday, a notice was served on Kiran Sankar Roy, secretary of the Bengal Provincial Congress Committee, asking him to stop the burning of foreign cloth. From this it was evident that the police were bent on stopping the bouncer's hand; it took upon himself the responsibility of burning the foreign cloth. As soon as the bouncer began a number of constables armed with regulation lathies and sergeants surrounded the meeting and began to pushe the huge crowd that assembled—there. Some men who were believed to be agents provocateur began exciting trouble. It was reported afterwards that these men were seen throwing stones. Long Beach. Calif.

The Palmetto, Leader of Colum bia asserts that South Carolina and Louisiana are in the same boat so far as providing for delinquent girls is concerned. It said; The New Orleans Dally States recently called attention to a condition in Liquoriana that is a disgrace to any civilized Christian American State. A colored girl of 15 years of age, convicted of killing a colored man, was sentenced to the State Penitentiary for life. The Daily State, in endeavoring an appeal to the Board of Pardons in behalf of this child, called punishment to the fact that Louisiana did no institute for delinquent colored girls as it had for the same class of white girls. That was the reason why it was necessary to sentence the child to the penitentiary. But Louisiana is not alone of the Southern States indifference that cannot be explained in ordinary fairness and decency, that has shown a callousness and South Carolina is right alongside of Louisiana. A year ago, girls under sixteen years of age were convicted of assault and battles on a white woman. They were sentenced to the Reformatory which, however, was for colored boys only. Of course, when carried there, they were not received. They were then carried to the State Penitentiary, but admittance was refused. They were then taken back to the jail of their home comp., but it was really unlawful for them to be kept there for a time, the face of moving for a new trial—which was promptly granted—was gone thru with. Being tried again, and, of course, promptly convicted they were sentenced to the jail for a term. Callous indifference and short-sighted parsimony seem to be the cause for this lack of provision for delinquent girls, as some provision has been made for the boys in South Carolina. According to an Atlanta special printed in the Texas Freeman of Houston, books about Negroes and those written by Southern Negro authors had a conspicuous place at the Southern Book Exposition held at a big department store in that city. '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 late book "What the Negro Thinks" which is just troth the press James Weldon Johnson's "Food of Trombones" Walter White "Fire on the Flut" and "Flight, the Poems of Dumbar, Mr. T J "Fanning" Johnston, Mr. T J "Fanning" national poet, and Negro stories, by Dr Carrier G. Woodson and Dr. Benjamin Brawley. Most conspicuous among the works of the Southern authors were Dr Howard W. Odum's "Rainbow Round My Shoulders," and his two volumes of Negro songs, DuBose Heyward's "Porg," and "Mamba's Danghters." Mrs Julia Peterkin's "Black April" and "Scarlet Sister Mary," and Dr E. L. Adams' "Congaree Sketches" of course, "Tincle Remus," as interpreted by Joel Chandler Harris, was present in all the general glory of his several volumes, some of them in manuscript form. Dr Odum Mrs Peterkin, and Dr Odum were present in person on successive days, and gaze readings which greatly interested the large audiences present. This is regarded as a most significant recognition of the place the race has gained in literature. The Western World Reporter of Memphis printed the following message from Montgomery, Ala as "something worth noting." At the recent term of the current court of this county, the grand jury called attention to the fact that every case brought before them charging the manufacture of liquor involved only Negroes while the testimony indicated that these Negroes were working for white men who posited by their violations of law.

It brings to mind also the statement of a well-known Southern white man interested in the improvement of race relations to the effect that "if white and Negro preachers understood each other and worked together as well as white and Negro bootleggers do a large part of our interracial troubles would specially come to an end." And the queerest part of it is that prohibition was adopted in the South to keep the Negroes from getting hold of liquor. Calling attention to the fact that out of twenty-two thousand employees of the State of Pennsylvania only ninety-seven are colored Philadelphia. Tribune said The idea that public jobs do not help the Negro is foolish and un sound. The State of Pennsylvania is a corporation sovereign. It refuses to employ Negroes who contribute regularly to its sustenance how can it be logically expected for private corporations to employ them? When members of the dominant group observe colored citizens engaged in rendering capable, efficient service to their State it naturally causes them to consider favorable employing them in private businesses. Then, too, every dollar which an individual earns helps to increase the aggregate wealth of the class to which he belongs. Finally, fixed that every forward step taken by an individual helps to improve the general condition of even the man lowest down. When business presupposes the working man gets a job. The more jobs available the better business becomes. One is dependent upon the other. The conference will blow up into thin air unless it is followed to definite conclusion. To stop here would-be to lose an excellent opportunity to place colored people in the employment of the State. The committee should forbid this one thing we will do—get jobs for colored people in the State Government. The chairman of the Republican State Committee agreed that the complaint was justified and suggested that specific positions or placement be presented to him. This is something to work upon. Referring to the features of certain bills before the Maryland legislature intended to benefit the race the Baltimore Ato-American under the heading, "Now, We'll Tell One commented. The Maryland legislature has had its say. It said "No," to three bills of chief concern to the Negro. Time was when the State's law makers would under no circumstances have considered such measures as the Teachers' Equalization Pay Bill and the Jim Crow Repeal. Those days are happily past. Not only were they introduced but there was effort on the part of a minority in both houses to have them enacted into law. To this extent Maryland is making progress. The Democratic majority party lost a golden opportunity of its leadership permitted selfishness in cases prejudiced by representative calls to the public school policy of the entire state and to continue the public humiliation of the colored race on railroads and steamboats. The legislature has had its case. Now we'll tell one at the polls in the next election. That is a philosophy we was using defeat, by planning to raise the contest to the polls. The lea- ther liberal sentiment, perceptible in the legislature will aid in bringing the reforms desired Commending the women races who have shown unat- tention in denouncing us, and standing up for their Louisville Leader said Right here in enlightened tured Louisville newspaper courts and others responsible to make a pracer of polls, the names of colored women out the titles Miss and Mrs. hundreds of Negroes who read the papers should take notice and re There is no implication of the bugbear, social equality, in given colored women the courtesy and respect due them Age, marital condition and sex are implied in Mrs and Mrs - certainly not national. Even education and character are not even included. In the case of a female and married the old enough and unmarried is a Miss. That is the short of it all. That is true, but it takes care of the calibre, initiative and age of Miss Cox, the white woman and Mrs Bordeaux, the colored woman who took the HA in the task for the HA to trigger in to compel the correct recognition and respect for red women According to the Leute monster blurted out in his dance that ainger was next on the program spread indignation and the pace were voiced in a letter a Louisville daily by Mr. L.

John Wesley Johnson, the vicar, preached an interesting and instructive sermon at the 11 a.m. service on the life of St. Paul. Immediately after the morning service the vicar was called to Harlem to hold the last rites over the remains of the late Junus E. Crowder at the Hotel Bellman's Association, St. Nicholas avenue and 130th street, due to the fact that Rev. Wm. P. Hayes, the pastor of Mt.

"The theme of the Good Shepherd gave to the minister, is agreed behind the conducible disguise of the minister, the dignitary passage and the dignitary institution, the minister, the service of the priest. The of the Good Shepherd, the gave to the Master is beautiful and ap- preparate. The term I will use cur often in the Bible, "Lah, in his prophecy declares, God as a man, has many times to Jesus by the apostles. "One of the greatest complaints made against him by the lewes continued Mr. Johnson, "was that good friend layeth aside his life. At 4 p.m. the pastor and com WHERE TO GO TO CHURCH WHERE TO GO TO CHURCH --- He received and ate with sinners In answer to this complaint the Master told the parable of the Lost Sheep Jesus was an interesting and a stimulating speaker—he always drew his parables from the interests and 'knowledge of the common people' The Eastern shepherd knew each of his sheep by name. If one were lost he would never rest until it were safely returned to the fold. On finding the frightened animal, the shepherd, he in his arms and carry the sheep home, calling in the neighbors to help him rejoice "In early Christian art, the figure of the Good Shepherd is portrayed often while in modern churches. He is shown with the lost sheep across His shoulder. Why is this figure portrayed so often? Because it represents the sum and substance of what Christianity realizes, made the supreme sacrifice to find and save the lost sheep. Again how much does the portraial map to us? The illustration of the Good Shepherd should represent a character to us. The training and inspiration received from this character should be a vital force in our lives.

The verb in the text does not mean to die; translated it means to lay aside life for the sheep. We, as Christians, should be willing to lay aside our own selfishness, our own ambitions and desires in order that our friends may be given the preferent names. George Elliot illustrates a willingness to lay aside, in the lines, "May I join the choir invisible whose song is the gladness of the world." Flowers for the altar were contributed by Bruce J.

WASHINGTON Offers Excellent Opportunities to and Women to Secure an Excellent and Normal Course, and a Mechanical Industries, Woman Industries or Agriculture LOCATION UNSURPASSED FOR HEALTH WRITE FOR CATALOG OF INFORMATION ROBERT R. MOTON Tuskegee Institute "We should have a fellow feeling with Jesus Christ in his sufferings for all of us who are Christians are not immune from it, for after we become true followers of Him we cease to belong to ourselves and become a part of Him with spirit we learn to understand Him with learn and understand why God has laid hold of us, just as St. Paul did! This was the central thought of the pastor, Dr. Edward Ernest Tyler, at the morning hour, which was the regular monthly communion day. Dr. Tyler was speaking on the topic "The Fellowship" of His Sister Phillips. The text was Phillipsans 110. During the course of the sermon Dr. Tyler vividly portrayed to the vast throng the extent that the world goes in endeavoring to win the attention of mankind. This effort on the part of the worldly leads many to think that the things that we see, handle, touch and possess are all there is in life. These things are temporal and must persevere. The unten things, which only are our heat and mind can enjoy. The great business of the church is to counteract the worldly views in doing so we must exercise sanity and sound judgment. All of us should strive to be like Paul in that we seek daily to learn why God has caught hold of us, and as we move about, we should bear witness for Him in every deed and action and call attention to the values and not to temporal things. Of course, there comes a time in the life of all when we might lose restraint, but as followers of Christ we can't afford to do this and must remember that not our will but His Will must be done. One person joined the church. Dr Tyler filled the pulpit at the evening hour. He delivered a short but interesting sermon on the subject "Purpose." The text was Daniel 1.8. "But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not deform the portion of the King's meat," he said, which he drank, therefore he requested of the prince of the councils that he might not defile himself. Dr Tyler stressed the point that all of us, and especially the young people, should have an ideal, a purpose in life, and that should be to lead a clean Christian life. We should not just drift in life, but have our lives organized for the better and purer things of life. We remember the individual are nothing but a number of impulses, and have certain instincts, and we should not give into those things that will defile us. Hence no matter what our surroundings, we will be in a position to demand respect. One person joined the church. The flowers in the pulpit were in memory of Mrs Henry Mary Blake and was given by her friend, Mrs Edith. The annual fair closed on Friday night. It was a success in every way.

Her voice is of unusual texture and color, and she has been referred to as the girl with a golden face. But unfortunately, she not lucidly and clarity of utterance and diction, and thus detracts largely from the herers environment.

Another performance of more than passing merit was the piano forte playing of William Duncan Allen who graduated from Obern Conservatory in 1928 and is now taking a post-graduate course at the Institute of Musical Art. Those who had heard him play had words of highest praise on Mr. Allen as an artist and contender in instances of the sort he proved worthy. The modern term of musical expression as exemplified by the French composer, Dotty, was interpreted with a restrained authority but with smooth choreography.

Watson TENOR 128-130 West 138th Street Kidgcombr 1993 Apr 4 G Twitted about the seeming misstatement appearing in this, column in the issue of April 6, let us hasten to rectify and explain the situation. The article referred to the fact that Will Marion Cook, the conductor-composer, had been prohibited from conducting the "Swing Along" show produced at the Lafayette Theatre by Mr Cook and Will Vodery, as Mr. Cook was without a Local 802 card. The assertion was perfectly correct. Yet persons who visited the show a few days after the opening of the show saw Mr Cook wielding the baton in his accustomed graceful style directing the orchestra. Here is the explanation. After Mr. Voddery was notified of the negligibility of Mr. Cook, he got busy, went to Local 802 headquarters, and found that the only way Mr. Cook could conduct the show would be by unionizing himself. The initiation fee was payed, plus a quarter's dues, after a questionnaire by the authorities, and without benefit of examination, it is alleged, Mr. Cook was granted a union card, and went back to the Lafayette to complete the week's run of the show as conductor. Will Marion Cook is now, therefore, an accredited and full-fledged member of Local 802. With his ability, knowledge and contact, much could be done to restore confidence and respect in high places for the colored orchestra. In conjunction with Will Vodery, by unselfish and wise cooperation, a monument of musical strength could be constructed to place the colored musician in the forefront from which he is receding stubbornly but surely. Paul Creamh, the violin, clarinet and saxophone player and teacher, will shortly give his second annual student concert and dance at St. Mark's Hall. It is seldom you find a musician, who is proficient on three instruments, and capable of handling each instrument in a musically and masterly manner. But by dingge and hard work and proper tuition, Paul has attained the goal and his students reflect the capabilities of their teacher. We tender to Paul and the students the wish of success to their recital. Three years ago, Rector and Cooper, musical show promoters, failed to pay Eddie Campbell something like $400 for the service of Campbell and his orchestra. Down on the defaulters' Tist went the names of Rector and Cooper. There the matter has rested, until last week Cooper and Clarence Robinson had a show at the Lafayette. The union was notified and Cooper was compelled to sign an agreement to pay half the amount due Campbell, the union agreeing to accept the amount by installments. Sergeant-at-Arms Minton got the agreement signed at the theatre, received the first weekly payment of $50 from Cooper, and allowed the orchestra to proceed with the show. Rector Cooper's erstwhile partner, who is working with "Blackbirds on Broadway, was requested to report to the office and will no doubt be compelled to assume his part of the indebtedness. I very now and then we hear of the strictness and alertness of the Jersey local. A peculiar incident, the solution of which is not quite clear, happened one day last week. Local 802 instructed Sergeant-at-Arms Minton, late in the afternoon, to get tice colored musicians and send them to Jersey with instructions to meet a Jersey sergeant-at-arms at the station. The five musicians were met at the station and escorted to a hall where some kind of political meeting was held, at which they played. Nobody knows why New York musicians were hired in that manner or why Newark musicians were not engaged Conjecture is that the colored men had been hired and at the last moment it was discovered by the Jersey local that they were non-union. The job was played satisfactorily and the men were paid, but had to submit to the Newark price, which is $3 less for the leader and $2 less per man than the New York price.

DOING THINGS SEEN, HEAR AMONG PU DINGS A EN, HEARD AND I ONG PULLMAN DOINGS AMONG PULLMAN EMPLOYEES THINGS SEEN, HEARD AND DONE AMONG PULLMAN EMPLOYES By JAMES H. HOGANS AS I SAW IT It was a true painting. I have never expect to see anything that on that is, that part of it. It was being peculiarly our last week, a picture the like of the life, and probably will never one of the two thousand men, on that evening. It represented and preadulation of a race for the background of that rare behaviour of Mr. and Mrs Fred had in the 369th Regiment Arne on the East The first thing that struck my heart was the national emblem repeated in old guests and over which " Fifteenth Anniversary" twenty-five years ago the Negros's home entered it as an empi as a guest and citizen, and it is when the inimitable Noble ring. Dren of the Big Paradox's Heart in Grance died from, for What, For What, of black and white and saw it was marked progress. Kornace presented herself long in the armory to the strife. Softly came long march from the instrument at it session made its entrance, closed to one point " Ah he was it is a thousand throats by bride, looking hardly ever threads that shone through the did tims years ago, was the Kogers. The groom attended by his bed. H. Roberts, walked with the men and not spent. As you the only thing that brought that was a men's marriage, and children that brought up the one kept her place in the picture next scene was identity, the next scene and with The St. Harlem, anyone of whom, ember of his particular church was due, perhaps, to the fact that the ceremony. Here you see the Death You Two do I my years of married life is a search for it in the picture from what angle you viewed it, hasised This was done by the kers. He was too many to be nearer at least three of these. The but that will have no bearing. As might be guessed, everyone what Jimmie Walker, our care I have heretofore wondered young in spite of the inclinatic to chide him for being so possibilities of his office.

It also been at a loss to me Grave Whalen to the important one after there was so much a sense of Plant and Structure, and I think the Mayor, and knows the art of toggering the as you might think of it, that the ladies have the ballot, say fairly election. Anyway, if we just forget: Jimmie Was what on a par with the of the Commissioners was that rende " em knows and doesn't know. " Certainly and respected the honor of ruler of Iiks, it was just to throw his voice so it a hub unfortunately few of the Mr Holstein is an enigma to us that he is not disliked " Harlem may reproduce a similar some future day, but I do not of those present. As a only painted here and there executed according to order. that struck my attention as a real emblem reposing majesty and over which was traced Anniversary." Mago the Negro who entered it as an employee, Hon. citizen, and it was the home of the noble Sissie sang at the Big Parade, which is in France during the last what, For What?" I looked and saw the answer progress. Red herself long, before the army to the strains of Wagtail softly came the rhythm of the instruments of the Moor made its entrance for a brief point "Ah here comes the thousand throats. And how looking hardly less, youthful, shone through the beautiful arms, also, was escorted by herided by his best man and walked with the buoyancy of the As you viewed the that brought you black to nimble, marriage was the that brought up the rear Still in the picture desiderity, that precious art and wit. The scene was one of whom could have a secular church that not only to the fact that each way Here you saw the proverb "You two do Part" kept in married life is an honor with the picture It was then you viewed it. Its beauty was done by the demonstrator many to be named here, but not these. This is not there have no bearing on what is missed, everyone seemed to be Walker, our carefree and traced wondered why it was left the inclination on the part for being so apparently in office I think I haveunning personality, and you with him to feel in the Armory Tuesday night in which I sat logan figure it was alleged, he figure ago Before the evening we ran in love with him personality Perhaps it might it is only his good looks, for our youthful apposite and he really knows how to real New Yorker admires its attractive points, our Mayor think of it, these two have the ballot. If you disk it Anway, if cheers are at Jimmy Walker near with the ovation given that rendered Casper Hassen know, Mr Holstein usted the honored guest of the talk, it was just possible the voice so it could be heard totally few of the speakers who an enigma to some of Hardt disliked produce a similar picture in day, but I do not expect present As a matter of fact there and there And it came to order. It was just It was a fine painting. I have never seen anything and never expect to see anything like it again. Historic that is, that part of it which we colored people are wont to think was being peculiarly our own, saw on Wednesday evening, or last week, a picture the like of which has never been seen around here, and probably will never be seen around here again by anyone of the two thousand men, women and children who viewed it on that evening. It represented progress, romance, idolity, honor and an adulation of a race for two of its worthy members. The background of that rare and spectacular picture was the celebration of Mr. and Mrs. Fred R. Moore's fifty years of married life on the 609th Regiment Armory, the only Negro regimental home in the East. The first thing that struck my attention as I entered the huge arena was the national emblem reposing majestically above the table of the red guests and over which was traversed in gold letters the words "Fifteenth Anniversary." Twenty-five years ago the Negro who entered a New York regiments home entered it as an employee. Tonight, he was entering one as a guest and citizen, and it was the home of those of his own When the inimitable Noble Sissie sang and acted in soul stirring Dream of the Big Parade, which is the outpouring of a Negro's heart in grance during the late War, and he asks the question, For What, For What?" I looked around that assemblage of black and white and saw the answer. It was in the picture, and was marked progress. Renaissance presented herself long before that particular episode series of the armory to the strains of Wagner's Bridal Chorus. I belonged. Softly came the rhythmic air of the famous wedding march from the instruments of the Monarch 45 Band as the bridal procession made its entrance. For a brief moment all eyes were accustomed to one point "Ah here comes the bride, came simulatively into a thousand throats. And how realistically it all did the bride, looking hardly less, youthful, despite the streaks of silver threads that shone through the beautifully-done coifure, than she did this years ago, was escorted by her bride-maid, Mrs. Raine Kugers. The groom attended by his best man and intimate friend, for Charles H Roberts, walked with the bouyancy and vigor of a man of torts and not agents. As you viewed the extraordinary procession the only thing that brought you back to a realization that the fact that it was a mini marriage was the troop of children and grandchildren that brought up the rear. Still, for all of that to marry kept her place in the picture. The next scene was idyllic, that precious and most cherished of virtues between man and witt. The scene was painted by the minister of Harlem, anyone of whom could have claimed the groom as a member of his particular church. That not one of these attempted that was due, perhaps, to the fact that each was allowed to participate in the ceremony. Here you saw the promise to "Love and Charm and Death You Two do Part" kept in its judicious sense. Two years of married life is an honor within itself. You didn't save; search for it in the picture. It was there to be seen not to from what angle you viewed it. Its beauty and worth were merely emphasised. This was done by the demonstrators who were the speakers. there were too many to be named here, but I cannot resist mentioning at least three of these. This is not the order in which they spoke but that will have no bearing on what is said regarding them. As might be guessed, everyone seemed to have been anxious to hear that Jimmie Walker, our carefree and traveling Mayor, had to say, I have heretofore wondered why it was he had such a strong following in spite of the inclination on the part of the New York press to chide him for being so apparently unimpressed with the responsibilities of his office. I think I have learned the secret. Our Mayor has a winning personality, and you don't have to come in direct contact with him to feel it. When he entered the Armory Tuesday night, several of the guests at the table at which I sat began criticizing him for a certain incident in which, it was alleged, he figured during his stay in Rome a year or so ago. Before the evening was over everyone on these trips had fallen in love with him. and he has personality. Perhaps it might be that I am this might be that it is only his good looks and the knack he has of wearing his clothes, for our youthful appearing Mayor is really pleasing to look at, and he really knows how to wear his togs. And it there is anything a real New Yorker admires it is a welldressed man in addition to these attractive points, our Mayor knows the touch of politics. He has also been at a loss to understand why the Mayor appointed Mr. Greve. Whalen to the important and difficult job of Police Comm- surer after there was so much criticism of his tenure or office as a member of Plant and Structures. I think I see the light now. He is a member, like the Mayor, also has a fair proportion of good looks and knows the art of toggers. Little as you might think of it, these two things will attract votes now that the ladies have the ballot. If you disbelieve this wait until Pierca's guilty direction. Anyway, if cheers are a guide, the women of Historic West forget Jimmy Walker. Now what on a par with the ovation given the Mavor and the lince commissioner was that rendered Casper Holstein, the man who Halem knows and does not know. Mr Holstein told why it was that he a certain and respected the honored guest of the evening, and being an avid ruler of likes, it was just possible that he knew the pitch at which to throw his voice so it could be heard by everyone, some of which unfortunately few of the speakers were able to do. Perhans Mr Holstein is an enigma to some of Harlem folks but it was obvious that he is not disliked. Holstein may reproduce a similar picture in honor of two worthy friends some future day, but I do not expect to be mentioned as being of those present. As a matter of fact a picture this highly painted here and there. And it can neither be plaited or executed according to order. It was just the Nature of feelings. What was the way I viewed it.

Advertisement of the affair may be seen elsewhere in this paper. In next week's issue of The Age, this column will contain a brief account of the station of railroad workers.

Sunday last, April 14, the largest meeting to date was held at the hey quarters of the movement, 309 West 130th street. George L. Ford, the prime mover in the embryonic organization, is highly optimistic at the interest that is slowly but surely being taken in his efforts to create a medium which will be of service to the retired porter. "Of course." And one of the sponsors, who asked that his name be omitted, "will take time to establish an organization such as is needed for the benefit of the retired porter, and which the sponsors have in mind, but just as the P.

About 300 employees are affected, and relief will mean an equivalent to $10,000 annual increases in their pay. Measured by obstinate persistence of the opposition, this is the Brotherhood's greatest victory since 1924, when it smashed Atlantis Coast line dining car management's offense, got recognition for the union, and made the best agreement ever.

The session lasted three hours Ever after the director-general of railroads ordered relief with pay during the war-time government control of the railroads, the New Haven dining car superintendent continued his pre-war custom of "relief" without pay. Some of the accrued but denied pay on this account was subsequently recovered by the union. After return of the roads to private management the cooks-waiters fight for relief began. Once they got it into the agreement that two days would be allowed if 22 days with the aid was the day idea was the superintendent's, February, carries only 26 working days; hence no relief The battle waged so furiously that it was alleged, and not denied, that the superintendent said he would "fire" the whole local committee.

During each year of these thirty years, the annual reports of the company, when considered objectively, discloses steadily mounting totals of concrete performance.

In the $75,882,984 of total insurance issued to individuals of the race, in force at the end of 1928 through the National Benefit, lies the real expression of what the work of Samuel Wilson Rutherford has done for the advancement of Negro interests. The little office of 1898 is now but a memory and a symbol. The great institution to which it gave birth is now licensed to operate in 28 States, in which it maintains eighty-two branches. Nearly 2,000 people, all Negroes, are employed upon its various activities in office and in field. Before each of them a commitment is made only by the capacity and industry they bring to their work. Among them are, many men and women who, but for the opportunity afforded by the existence of this great work national, Negro-operated enterprise, would almost certainly be beating their heads and minds against the blank wall of industrial servitude, wearing out their potential brain power and capacity in underpaid and futureless work.

A.'s Open Big Campaign The Brooklyn and Queens Y.M.C. A officially inaugurated its 75th anniversary campaign at a luncheon Monday afternoon at the Hotel St George, Brooklyn. A citizens' army of 3,600 workers will serve in the campaign which will continue through April 20, the objective is $3,270,787. The new equipment, already provided, includes these buildings and camps-Prospect Park, Flushing, Highland Park, Central Queens, Fort Toten Army, Fort Hamilton Army and New Utrecht, Camps Carlton, Massapeake Lakeville and Brooklyn. The campaign includes a portion of the indebted on account and the full amount of the debt on the Bedford, Seanuens' and Greenpoint branch buildings. The Y M C A came to Brooklyn on June 9, 1853, just nine years and three days after George Williams started the Association in London. Six young men of Brooklyn, Andrew A. Smith, Robert S. Slocum, John E. Hantford, Robert I. Thorne, J. Wills James and Charles W. Bleecker, called the meeting which was attended by 300 young men in the old Second Congregational Church, and the Brooklyn Y M C A was organized Organization of branches began in 1899 with the establishment of the Eastern District Branch This was followed by the organization of the following branches: Bedford, 1890, Prospect Park, 1891, Twenty-sixth Ward (now Highland, 1894, Park 1893, Long Island Railroad, 1894, Norton Station Central Association) 1896, Fort Hamilton Army, 1899, Navy (affiliated) 1899; Fort Totten Army, 1902; Carlton Avenue, 1902; Greenpoint, 1903; Bush Terminal 1915, Merchant Seamen's, 1918; Long Island City Industrial, 1919, New Utrecht, 1919, Jamaica (now Central Queens) 1920, Flushing, 1923, Flatbush, 1924, and Bay Ridge in 1918 the new Carlton Avenue Branch Buildings was secured through the gifts of the colored and white residents of Brooklyn and a subscription from Juinus Rosenwald of Chicago. The board of directors therefore planned to ask the public for a sum sufficient to provide ten new buildings, namely, Prospect Park, Flushing, Highland Park, Central Queens, Bedford Bay, Flatbush, Port Totten, Army, New Utrecht and Bay Ridge, as well as to take care of a portion of the building indebtedness on Central Branch, Greenpoint, Eastern District, Carlton Avenue, and Seamen's Brench. Carlton Avenue Branch will share proportionately in the big campaign fund $6,912 will be awarded the foredeed men and boys, will and will virtually clear up all indebtedness on the building at 405 Carlton avenue and the camp at Staatsburg, N.Y. This will enable the Carlton Avenue Branch to operate without the staggering indebtedness now on it. The people of Brooklyn are asked to give liberally to this extremely important campaign.

Having carnivals is hard work, but it is also good fun, and it does engender the spirit of fellowship—of working and playing together—which is the basic idea of the Y W. C. A. The feature of Wednesday, April 10, the opening night of the carnival, was a Chinese Wedding. This was a delight to the eye. Miss Venzella Jones directed the performance. She used a group of about twenty girls from the Emma Ransom House, and the Beaux-Arts Club. The costumes were in soft lovele shades, stencelled with contrasting colors and the bride, Miss Elsie Stiles, wore brilliant red. Against a warm purple background and tall green palms, the bridal party made a beautiful picture Miss Helen Brooks, in black and gold, took the part of the groom Miss Arlene Woodley was soloist for the wedding. The crowd was so large that it was necessary to give two performances and both audiences congratulated Miss Jones most warmly of the beautiful costumes and setting, and the excellence of the performance Miss Phyllis McClendon, assisted by Miss Hattie Edwards, played for the wedding. On Thursday night the gymnasium was turned into a circus ground, and fun ran root, with Miss Constance White as master of ceremonies, and Miss Sadie Hagley as the ganboling clown The Girl Reserves presented a charming Mother Goose Musical Resue, and the Education Department a Fashion Show, on Friday night. Each night a delicious copper was served, and Mrs Vernon Johns and Hattie Edwards of the music committee saw to it that we had good incidental music throughout the period of the carnival. The decoration committee, of which Mrs. Lucile Washington was chairman, covered itself with glory in the process of covering the lobby with the gayest of orange and black crepe paper awnings. We wish it were possible to give names of all who helped make the carnival a success. Members and committee members and friends worked together to make the carnival the success which it was. Much enthusiasm prevails among the girls of the Physical Department over the 30 day endurance swim which starts the first of May. Girls swim in teams of two each, alternating daily for a record number of laps of the pool during a set period of ten minutes daily for tenure month. The team of Picken-Sheppard won the swim in 1927, and Iversley-Johnson for 1928. A weekend trip to Fern Rock Camp is scheduled for May 4 and 5 for girls of the hiking group. Ioliva M. Nelson, director of the Physical Department, is attending the American Physical Education Association convention which is meeting in New Haven Conn., April 17 to 20. Police Commissioner Grover A. Whalen has accepted an invitation to address the Association of Trade and Commerce of Harlem on Wednesday evening, March 24, at 2370 Seventh avenue. The address is to be at 8 o'clock, and tickets of admission may be secured from Wilfred R Bain, cor-responding secretary, on Sunday, April 20 from 2 to 6 p.m. Seats will be held until 745, when the doors will be open to the general public. Benjamin F. Thomas is chairman of the program committee Columbus Hill Nursery Urges Need For Support The needs of the Columbus Hill Day Nursery are being urged upon the people of the city by its board of managers, which consists of men and women of both races who are working not only for the kiddies of the neighborhood, but for the families as well. Originally organized for the care of Negro children exclusively, demands on the nursery has made it necessary to accept white children also during the past three years. The building, owned by the Children's Aid Society, has been known, since last October, as the Columbus Hill Community Centre, increasing the value of the nursery to the neighborhood. Incidentally, the only Montessori Class for Negro children in the city is operated in this nursery, and it is an inspiring sight to see the little ones demonstrating the training they are getting in service, self-control and character. Since the nursery was established eight years ago, the use of the building, with heat and light, has been donated by the Children's Aid Society. The board must provide for other operating expenses. Mk. for the children costs $2250 for the nursery expense for two weeks is $1250. Bill totals $15, and the cost of operating the Montessori Class is $110 for month. Miss H T Jefferson treasurer, 150.

Vine Ave., Knoxville, Tenn. "During the last year in high school, I felt very weak and run-down. Several of my friends told me Cardul and accepted that I try it. When I went to college I weighed 95 pounds, so I decided to try Cardul, and when the school year was up, I weighed 130 pounds. "I would advise any person who is nervous, weak and in a run-down condition to take Cardul, for I am sure it will do them good. "After taking the Cardul, I am not nervous any more, and I am in the best of health." CARDUI RADIOS & BATTERY SERVICE All makes of Radios Repaired, Electric Exchanged, Rewired and Rebuilt at RR. Inc.
