Col. Filmore To Fight For G.O.P. Leadership In 19th A.D. ALDERMANIC BOARD CURBS GREEDY LANDLORDS --- Col. Fillmore Announces Himself A Candidate For District Leader Of Republicans In 19th Assembly Dist. Formal Statement Emphasizes Fact Negro Constitutes 90 Per Cent of Population In District and Is Entitled To Control Lt. Col. Charles W. Filmore, veteran of both the Spanish-American and the recent World Wars, at present an auditor for the State Tax Commission, has formally announced his candidacy for executive member of the Republican County Committee for the 19th A. D., which carries with it the duties of party leader. Col. Fillmore, in making his announcement emphasizes the fact that with the colored residents constituting 90 per cent of the district's population, and that the responsibility of carrying forward the interests of the Republican party rests almost wholly upon shoulders of the colored workers. He points out that this responsibility should carry with it a proper reward, including the right to control their own political destiny through a leader chosen from their own ranks familiar with their problems and responsive to their will. Pine Military Record. Col Fillmore has long been an active figure in the city's civic, military and political life. A native of Ohio, he served first in Ohio National Guard, attaining the rank of major. In 1898, he was commissioned as first lieutenant by President McKinley and assigned to the 9th U. S. Volunteer Infantry, serving with that regiment in the Cuban campaign under Generals Lawton and Wood. He contracted yellow fever and was honorably discharged by reason of physical disability, it being more than a year before he was restored to normal health. He went to Washington and secured a position in the U. S. Treasury, later transferring to the Internal Revenue Service in New York City. He was senior captain of the "Old 15th" under Col. Hayward, serving from the first organization of that regiment through its World War campaigning as the 369th A. F. F. He was cited for bravery during the battle of the Champagne and was awarded the cross de guerre. Later, he served on staffs of Gen Balleau of the 92nd Division and Col. Roberts of the 370th A. F. F. He entered the Tax Commission office on his return from France. The formal statement, announcing his candidacy, as follows Col. Fillmore's Statement. "In response to the suggestion of a number of influential members of the Central Republican Club, the district organization of the 19th Assembly District, I have determined to become a candidate for executive member, or leader, of that district. "It has been pointed out to me that colored residents now constitute 90 per cent of the population of the district, that they constitute an overwhelming majority of the Republican vote, and that the responsibility of carrying forward the interests of the Republican Party now rests almost wholly upon the shoulders of colored workers in the party. Charged with this responsibility they should as a matter of justice receive the rewards that go with party successes. "Among these are the right to rule their own political destiny; the privilege of choosing a leadership from out of their own ranks familiar with their problems and responsive to their will; a leadership that will subordinate personal interests to party success, and that will bring to the workers the practical benefits enjoyed by members of the party elsewhere. Under such leadership alone may we hope to be effective and articulate representation." Claim Is Justified. Philips 20,000 colored Americans live within the limits of the Harlem section. This great mass is without authoritative voice in the council of either of the great political parties. The preponderance of our voting strength fully justify our claim to political leadership in this community, nor will it be made persons of other races or claim. Rather will they agree with us as we have with our insuring Republican surrogate, therefore, communicate the respective election district plans to present and prospective members of the Republican County committee and the enrolled Republican district, placing my identity before them, requesting assistance and pledging myself, to direct the activities of the organization - Jato Col. CHAS. W. FILLMORE Candidate for Republican Leadership in 19th A. D., declaring race is entitled to Political Control. MONARCH APTS.

Dr. J. R. HILLERY Sails Friday to attend Foot Clinics in Edinburgh, London, Berlin and Paris. DR. J. R. HILLERY GOES TO PARIS; ATTEND CLINICS Leading Podiatrist Invited By Paris Body To Make Address When the White Star Inner, "Magestic," sails on Friday, June 21, one of its outgoing passengers will be Dr J R Hillery, one of New York City's best known podiatrists, who will be en route to Paris, France, by special invitation of the Paris Association of Podiatrists to deliver an address at the International Foot Clinics Congress on "Podiatrists In America," and to demonstrate the Hillery system of bandaging to relieve foot strain. Dr. Hillery has been practising his profession in this city for more than twenty years, and has won for himself an enviable rating as one of the best equipped chiropodists in the country. Some of the cases he has handled have been of the most complicated character Dr Hillery, when the application of Negro chropodists was turned down by the New York County Association, personally secured the services of Counselor John William Smith and fought the case successfully through the courts, eventually removing all bars, which had been raised by the association to the admission of colored podiatrists. He made the fight single-handed the other applicants having accepted the dictum of the association and the return of their checks for the admission fee. As a result, all of the colored practitioners are now members of the association. Besides having developed a system of bandaging or strapping, which has proved of mostible advantage in the treatment of his patients, Dr Hillery has invented a device, for which he was granted letters patent by the patent office in Tampa, 1920, which he believed will prove to be of greatest value to people suffering from foot diseases. The Paris meeting, to be held July 12 to 14, Prior to that, Dr Hillery will attend clinics in Berlin, Hamburg and London. He is hearing letters of introduction to European personalities from patients and friends which are unusual in enthusiastic critical or some of the cases which have been effected by the New York doctor. Given Bon Voyage Party A non voyage party was tendered Dr Hillery on Monday night June 17 at his home 238 West 132nd street, by a group of his fellow members of the New York County Association of Pediatrists, headed by Dr Emily C. Charlton who was assisted by Dr Charles Mawfield in arranging the affair. It was a gay occasion, and all present joined in felicitating Dr Hillery. One of his grateful patients from Westchester County has presented him with a travelling bag for use on the trip. Olderman Fred R Moore was present and joined in wishing Dr Hillery a pleasant and interesting trip. Dr Hillery will be accompanied by his mess, Miss Bertha Williams.

Walker presiding, took up on June 12 the local rent emergency law introduced by Alderman McGillick and passed by the Board of Aldermen on Tuesday, June 11, it was adopted with an amendment making it apply only to those apartments renting on May 31, 1929, at $15 per room per month or less. In the amended form it went back to the board of Aldermen on Tuesday, June 18, for final enactment, when it was unanimously adopted. When introduced by the Bronx Alderman, it was given immediate consideration and passed under an emergency message from the Mayor, and when it was taken up by the Board of Estimate Mayor Walker at first made strong objection to the proposed amendment. reasonable detail; and such other facts as the landlord claims afflict bus net income from such property. Upon the plaintiffs failure to fit such bill of particulars within the time limited, the court upon motion of the defendant shall dismiss the complaint. But after many of the real estate organizations opposing the measure had protested its original form, and he had been shown that the amendment would bring relief to the city's poorer classes of buyers, so that all who would oppose the bill if amended to raise their funds Most of the landlord representatives did so, and the Mayor, agreed to the amendment. Drama Is Injected. Drama was injected into the proceeding. When one of the supporters of the measure declared that he knew of some tenants who would be getting guns and shooting landlords if the situation was not eased. Then Mrs Lucille Zeumer, with a sheaf of disposes notices in her hands, commanded attention. She refuted the claims made by landlords that no material raises had been made in rents by displaying notices of such rent raises. In one case, a tenant paying $50 had been told that next month the rent would be $110. In another case, she showed a rent receipt for a month's payment of $43, paid June 1, and on the back of which had been written a notice that next month's rent would be $67. It was shown also that since June 1 the Municipal Courts in South Bronx, Harlem, Hell's Kitchen and in the lower East Side have been tamed with tenant-landlord actions.

HANSON IS EXONERATED IN ELKS' FIGHT Bonding Co. Reports No Trace of Dishonesty Or Lack of Honor Charles M Hanson, who for a number of years was the financial secretary of Imperial Lodge, No.127, I B P O E of W, and who lost this position because of alleged misappropriation and mishandling of the lodge's funds, has received a letter from the casualty company with whom he was bonded, exonerating him of any personal dishonesty in the matter. This letter from the Fidelity and Casualty Company of New York reads as follows: "Dear Mr Hanson: Imperial Lodge has reported discrepancies in account and has applied for payment of $1,960.63 under your bond. Claima Had No Merit "Our accountants, after checking the audit submitted by Herman Volk and Co, the auditors employed by Imperial Lodge for that purpose, have found that the amount claimed should be classified in 3 sections: In the first place, there is about $1,160.00 which must be discarded entirely as apparently without any merit. In the second place, there is about $560 which seems tracable to gerrits in the bookkeepers and auditors employed by the Lodge. In the third place, there is about $240 which was admittedly expended on behalf of the Lodge but as to which there is a dispute concerning authority. You claim that as Secretary you had authority to make these expenditures and some of the members claim you did not have such authority. Case of Disputed Authority "We therefore, desire to handle Imperial Lodge's claim for $1,900,000 as follows - Pay nothing on account for the $1,100,633, as this amount is without apparent merit; pay the $560, since it was due to errors in bookkeeping, and pay $240 rather than incur the great expense of protected litigation on the question of whether you had or had not authority to make these payments. Thus we would offer to dispose of the claim for $800 of the debt we did not do this in view of the fact that none of this $800 so paid would be paid on account of any lack of fidelity to a duty of trust on your part. Of course, no compromise could be offered if there were the slightest evidence of wrongdoing on your part. "We sincerely believe that since you are exonerated that you can without any loss of personal honor agree to these terms. It is our understanding that you have always stood ready to pay what seems fair. The above disposition seems fair and equitable. Please advise us immediately of your wishes in the matter.

Dr. D. Ward Nichols and his congregation of the Emanuel A. M. E. Church at 37-41 West 119th street come to fruition with the opening of a day nursery in one of the large basement rooms of that edifice. The preliminary survey has been made and estimates submitted as to cost of the necessary changes. The installation of the equipment including wash basins with running water, will be about $500, and Dr. Nichols and his people are considering ways and means of raising this money. The neighborhood in which the church is located is being more and more populated by members of the race, and many of the mothers are greatly inconvenienced in finding a suitable place in which to leave their small children when necessity compels them to go out at day's work. It is to meet this need that Emanuel Church is planning this expansion. Plan A Larger Service. It is also planned to be of larger service economically by the operation of an employment agency for the placement of men and women of the congregation, and of the neighborhood in lucrative positions. Emanuel Church, under the pastorate of Dr. Nichols since June, 1920, has experienced a steady expansion of its activities. It was located at that time at 310 West 22nd street, holding services in a private house, the first floor of which had been converted into a meeting Hall. The church roll contained the names of 18 active financial members, with about 15 others who were inactive. 1 December, the same year, through the assistance of a loan of $100,000 from the Church Extension Board, Dr. Nichols and his congregation took over the 119th street properties which had formerly Announcing The Making Opportunities FRED POLLARD, Jr. and Have Opened A Sale "TAILORED" DIRECT FROM FACTORY We Are Open for a Sale To Sell For Us on a MAKE $2.70 PER HOUR In Your Spare Time Call At Our Office and (OPEN EVENT) POLLARD-TROTT Distributors For "Tailored" 2374 SEVENTH AVENUE The Finest Private H Operated by Neg Vincen Sanato 2348 Seve Between 137th and FOR THE ACCOMMOD OBSTETRICAL AND Capacity—Fifty Beds in Vate Rooms and Wai Exposure Location—Right in the Facilities—Every-Model for the Welfare of Finest Operating R and Physiotherapy Rates—Reasonable Visiting and Ins 2 to 1 P.

"About fifty years ago," says Mr. Lewis G. O'Shields, of Portersville, Ala., "my mother gave me the first dose of BlackDraught, and I have taken it ever since, when I needed a medicine for constipation. I have used this remedy all my married life, in raising my children. "I have used BlackDraught frequently for heartburn, as I have had spells of this kind, off and on, for years. This follows indigestion, and indigestion comes close on constipation. "I have found that the best way to head off trouble is to begin taking BlackDraught in time. It relieves me of dizziness, tightness in the chest and backache. "By getting rid of impurti ties, Black-Draught helps to keep the system in good order. I always keep it in the home, and have recommended it to many people, in my time. I always say a good word for a good medicine." Sold by all druggists.

Colored Boy Scouts In Philadelphia Resent Segregation By Council And Sever Relationship, Return Charters Philadelphia, Pa.—Because the Philadelphia Council, Boy Scouts of America, refused to abrogate a segregation rule by which Negro scouts are barred from certain camping privileges because of their race, nine troops of colored Boy Scouts have returned their charters and severed all connection with the Council, this action being taken May 3, 1929. NEW LINCOLN HOSPITAL SCHOOL FOR NURSES DEDICATED BY MAYOR WALKER The trouble started in June, 1928 when the Council refused to admit colored boys to the Treasure Island Camp, limiting them to Camp Biddle and giving as a reason an agreement with other welfare organizations in the state to the effect that "Where there is a possibility of bodily contact, the mining of the two races must not permitted." Demanded Revocation. This ruling, transmitted verbally by the colored troops, drew a strong contest in the form of a set of resolutions signed by my representatives twenty troops and sent to the council on July 24, 1928, demanding the revoking of the order, deriving "We do not feel our racial self respect will permit us to judge to ally ourselves with an organization with this conception universal brotherhood." universal brotherhood These resolutions were sent Dr. Charles D Hart, president, Phila delphia-Council. In the meantime, act as held in abeyance following a plea made by Charles M Schwartz deput commissioner, who asked that summary action be postponed. A vigorous protest which he had Dr. Hart, and which, he be told, would bring a resounding objectionable order.

As was anticipated, the Board of Aldermen passed the new Emergency Rent Law last week and it went to the Board of Estimate, where it was amended so as to apply only where the rental charged May 31, 1929, was fifteen dollars a room or less. This removed the principal objections raised to the measure by the representatives of hotels and exclusive apartment houses, and it was expected that the measure would be accepted as amended by the Board of Aldermen in its session this week. It is now thought that the court tests which were threatened against the bill in its first form, will not be raised now, since it applies only to the cheaper class of flat and apartment houses. Among other things, the bill gives the tenant the right to go to court when he is charged excessive or oppressive rentals to seek relief. The law also makes it a valid defence against a dispossess action if the proposed raise is unjust and unreasonable, and it is generally conceded that the fair rate of return on the property investment should not exceed eight per cent. In the meantime the landlords in the Bronx and in Harlem have been busily engaged in giving notice to their tenants of the proposed raising of rents. Landlord and tenant actions have been started in the municipal courts in both districts and hundreds of tenants are facing dispossess actions. The Harlem Lawyers Association, at a recent meeting, resolved to take measures to assist in relieving the conditions that many of the tenants will face on July 1, when the thirty-day notices will expire. Among the means suggested to clear the situation is the formation of a local committee of arbitration, consisting of impartial citizens, to bring about an amicable adjustment of the questions between the landlords and tenants affected. All in all, there is promise that the needs of the situation will be met through the combined action of the various agencies whose aid has been enlisted to handle the existing emergency. BEGINNING TO WAKE UP There are signs that the Negro voters of Harlem are beginning to wake up as to the potential value of their votes in the present political situation in city and county politics. In the Twentyfirst Assembly district, as in the Nineteenth, there is a persistent demand for a leadership to be evolved from within the race. This has been recognized by the announcement that Robert S. Conklin, who has held on to the district leadership despite much opposition, is about to retire, and the opportunity is presented for an assertion of the Negroes' ability to choose their own leaders. An almost similar situation is presented on the Democratic side, because of the fact that no local Democratic candidate can expect to be elected without the aid of the Negro voters, who are in a majority in both of these districts. An analysis of the vote in the Nineteenth district in the last presidential election showed a total of 16,690 votes cast, of which total the Democrat polled 7627 while the Republicans had 9063. In addition to this, it is estimated by close political observers that there are forty thousand more possible voters in the district, who do not take the trouble to register or vote. Most of the white politicians in both parties are not anxious to have these self-disfranchised voters added to the present strength of the Negro vote. They say, with one voice, "Don't wake 'em up." They have strained their efforts in keeping the present Negro majorities in leading strings all these years, and they do not wish to add to the difficulties of their self-imposed leadership. There are a few fair-minded men of greater vision, who look beyond their selfish ends and urge the building up of party strength by enrolling these potential voters and giving them proper representation in party matters. If the Negroes are in the majority in these districts, they say, let us give them what is due them. But this counsel of the minority has so far been dis- regarded, and the seeds of dissatisfaction are allowed to grow and rankle. Strong evidence of this growing dissatisfaction with present political conditions was shown in an article printed in The Advance, a weekly church publication of Harlem, which undertook to point out some "cold and stern facts" for The Age and other Negro journals to face and use their collective influence to correct them. These facts, according to the analysis of The Advance editor, seem to lie in the statement that "Negroes are fiercely, even stupidly partial to the Republican party." As proof of this assertion, it pointed to the campaign of George E. Hall for the Assembly, when he ran on a Democratic ticket. It maintained that the sober truth of the whole matter is, that "Negroes have not reached the place in their political development where they think in terms of the best interests of the group." And it might be added, in mitigation of this indictment, that few, if any, groups of voters have as yet reached this stage of enlightened self-interest. The Advance proceeded: They forget, when they come to vote, group interest and remember only that they are either Republicans or Democrats. As a group we have not learned that neither party, as such, is worth a fiddler's — to us; that both unite to defeat our hopes and aspirations; both give us only what they must and both deny us all they can. What we have got to learn is,—and in the teaching process The Age, as one of the most influential Negro journals in the world, must play an important part—that party shackles bind the best interest of our group, and that parties are but means to an end. As The Age has been teaching this lesson for forty years or more, we are naturally encouraged to find our efforts seconded by so outspoken an exponent as the editor of this church paper, even if he suppressed the name of the fiddler's possession, presumably a bow, which he seems so worthless. But, we must not use sight of the fact, that party organisations serve a useful purpose in the present system of American politics, and that the Negro must avail himself of the help of one or the other as instruments to attain his ends.

A legislative tempest was provoked in the upper house of the Texas legislature by the simple announcement that the wife of President Hoover had entered at tea the wife of Representative Deriest, a member of Congress from Illinois. By what right the Texas legislators undertook to criticize the social doings of the mistress of the White House does not appear, but the impertinence was exhibited in a resolution which reads follows: A legislative tempest was provoked in the upper house of the Texas legislature by the simple announcement that the wife of President Hoover had entertained at tea the wife of Representative DePriest, a member of Congress from Illinois.

The occasion was also utilized to reuke those Democrats who voted for Hoover, subtly styled Hoover-crats This brought a hot retort from Senator Love, who shouted "Any man who says that the three hundred thousand Texans who voted for Hoover are nigger lovers has the word liar branded across his brow." Altogether the Texas Senate had a hot time over a tea to which none of them was invited and which was strictly none of their business. Their resolve "to bow their heads in shame" was quite appropriate, but for an entirely different reason from the one stated.

One of the most serious problems confronting the Negro press is that of how to make a race paper a paying investment. In the early days when Freedom's Journal and the Ram's Horn were printed in New York, over a century ago, the principal aim of the Negro newspaper was anti-slavery agitation, together with the securing of citizenship rights for the members of the race who had achieved their freedom. The editors and publishers of these early papers were propagandists and agitators pure and simple. They published their papers until their means were exhausted, and then suspended until more money could be raised. None of these papers ever became self-supporting. Toward the end of the War of the Rebellion, when the Negro papers became more numerous, especially in the South, their aim was still to uphold the rights of the race to citizenship and to further education and advancement. Of course there were politics and racial news included with the large amount of opinion printed, but it was not until the latter part of the century that the Negro papers really became a medium for news concerning the activities of the race in all parts of this country, as well as in foreign lands. Then came a slow but steady enlargement and improvement of this class of newspapers, and many of them began to present an air of prosperity, One of the most serious problems conting the Negro press is that of how to make a race paper a paying investment. In the early days when Freedom's journal and the Ram's Horn were printed in New York, over a century ago, the principal aim of the Negro newspaper was anti-slavery agitation, together with THE NEW YORK AGE whether their business department war feels the urge to ranted it or not. skilled trade. Despite this general appearance of prosperity, it is doubtful if many of our race papers are really paying business investments, especially if they have invested much capital in printing plants and machinery. In the latter case, the job printing done for others may prove a profitable adjunct to the establishment, and serve to make the machinery earn a return on the investment. But few of these papers can count a profit derived wholly from subscriptions, sales and advertising. The wonder is that many of them can continue publication year after year under the handicaps they have to carry. In the first place, few have the circulation to warrant the expenses incurred in getting out papers of from eight to forty-eight pages. Those that have the greatest number of sales have to keep on tiptoes to pander to the appetite of their readers for the sensational and scandalous in their news, or else copy the methods of the daily tabloids, which amounts to the same thing. The number of readers who appreciate legitimate news subjects and special articles on important topics, treated by well-informed writers, is limited, although steadily growing. The majority of the readers demand scandal or personal gossip, or what is still better, pictures with brief and easy reading matter. In fact colored readers are much like the average white ones in their demands for transient reading matter. It is therefore up to the publishers of Negro newspapers to choose which end of the dilemma they shall take in running their papers. Whether to endeavor to run a high class paper with a limited circulation, or to issue a sensational tabloid that will appeal to the greater numbers and bring larger sales. Some try to combine the two purposes, with the usual result of the person who tries to serve two masters, satisfying neither class of readers. What is needed is a greater interest in the real mission of the race press and an appreciation of the role it has played, and still is playing, as an advocate of the cause of the race at the bar of public opinion. This should result in a genuine support of these papers and greater encouragement of their further purpose as a medium of news and opinion. Their value as an advertising medium has been largely hampered by the lack of the spirit of cooperation and the farming out of this valuable function to outside interests. The prosperity of the Negro press can be placed on a real and permanent basis through the means of greater cooperation on the part of the editors and publishers. Let them realize the importance of their function as a factor in race development and a means of service to their people. Their reward should be in greater sales, more subscribers and an increase of advertising handled over their own counters at living rates. But this can only be achieved through systematic cooperation and the education of a reading public with higher standards. EDUCATION AND ECONOMICS The tendency to decry the results of college education of late years has gone so far as to prejudice many employers against taking on young men as employees, if they have a college diploma. The college graduate, instead of coming upon the scene of action with the belief that the world is his, is now represented as fearing his ability to tackle the tasks that demand a practical grasp of ordinary business methods. While it may be a good thing to lessen the coocksureness of the average college graduate, it is not well to destroy his self-confidence utterly. College training of itself does not necessarily fit a man to enter upon business pursuits, neither should it unfit him for that kind of work. According to an old schoolmaster, the best kind of education was that which enabled the recipient of it to make an honest living in some gainful occupation. This was broad enough to include any sort of trade or profession short of piracy or housebreaking. Bootlegging and hijacking were not recognized as gainful occupations in those days. But it was generally recognized that notwithstanding the amount of education a man might have acquired, he was still obliged to earn a living by fulfilling some useful purpose to the community. Modern educators have of late questioned the value of the training formerly given to youth in the colleges. Outside of the earned professions and such technical trades as chemistry and engineering, they are inclined to feel that a college education fails to fit a young man for general business. It is argued by these critics that education should fit the youth of the country for business or for trades. The white collar jobs have ceased to pay living salaries, so the youth who possesses brawn as well as brain Here is where the industrial trade schools should function in preparing the student to handle the trowel and the level as well as the hammer and the rule. Of course, despite all this preparation, the graduate may find himself kept out of a job through the ironbound rules of the trades union, which does not encourage the admission of too many THE AGE READERS' FORUM "A Political Comeback" Editor of the New York Age: Editor of the New York Age I have just read with degree of pleasure your very splendid editorial entitled, "A Political Comeback" It is just grand, and I desire, as a race-conscious Negro, to thank you for it! Relative to the situation in New York, you say: "In New York the effort to elect a Negro member to Congress has failed repeatedly because of the fact that the voters of that group do not enroll and register in sufficient numbers to give the candidate a majority at the polls. The colored population in North Harlem is estimated at between 250,000 and 300,000, including Cubans, West Indians and Porto Ricans, of whom are not naturalized. But if one-half of those eligible were to register and vote, the possibility of one member of the N.Y. delegation being a Negro is pronounced.—This is lamentably true." This deplorable situation can be easily remedied if our leaders in Harlem — Political, spiritual, fraternal, financial and educational—would get together immediately and start a campaign for the enlightenment of our Southern and West Indian brethren as to the duty they owe to themselves, their race and the community, city, state and country in which they live to (1) register, (2) naturalize, (3) vote Let there be a systematic "Personal Visitation Campaign," during which time every home in Harlem be visited to ascertain the number of persons who are voters and who are not. Those who are not voters from the South, should be shown the necessity for registering and voting, and the benefits derive therefrom. Our West Indian brethren should be shown the disadvantages of non-citizenship, and the many advantages to be gained for themselves and the race they love so well, by becoming this great American Commonwealth. The native born New Yorker must be aroused to the full sense of his duty which is to register and vote at all times and under any circumstance as an inspiration to his Southern and West Indian brothers Registering on the one side and naturalizing on the other is a very good thing, but the native-born Negroes who register must vote! The foreign-born Negroes who become naturalized must not be satisfied with merely being an "American Citizen," but must both register and vote to be in very truth, a real true American citizen. An educational program along these lines must be started at once for the enlightenment of all groups in Harlem, namely The native-born New Yorker, the Southerner, and the foreigner, before we can send a Negro to represent us in Congress from the great Metropolis of the Nation The race is divided in New York (but not hopelessly as one good brother said recently!) and that's why our efforts to elect a Negro member to Congress has failed repeatedly—this is the chief reason! "A house divided against itself can't stand." It must, eventually fall! So it is with our race in New York. As a citizen of the greatest city in the world, and one of her proud sons—a West Indian—American whose maternal relations are all West Indians, and whose paternal ancestry were from the South, I appeal to my race in New York–West Indian, Southerner and native New Yorkers to get together for the our common good, and send a black representative to the Congress of our common country from our common city. With such political leaders as Alderman Moore, ex-Alderman Roberts, Harris, ex-Assemblyman Johnson, Shields, Billings, Civil Service Commissioner F Q Morton, Watson, Dyer, Royall, Lavelle, McDugal and many others too numerous to mention; along with such religious leaders as Revs. Brown of Mother Zion; Powell of Abysinia, Hayes of Mt Olivet, Iqas of St James, Garner of Grace Church, and others. I am quite sure The Week of June 22 ASTROLOGICALLY CONSIDERED BY THEARCHER The birthdates of May 23, 24 and 25; September 25, 26 and 27, and January 22, 23 and 24, will feel the benign influence of a very good aspect from Jupiter all this week. The best day seems to be June 24, and every one of these birthdates will be able to obtain some money, social honor, promotion in the employment and business advancement if they will go after these things. The position of the moon gives the January birthdates all the best of it, but the others can do just as well if they try. Notice some of the friends whom you know were born on these dates. Those who try this advice will try to be surprised at the case with which they can accomplish some of their aims. This does not mean that the impossible can be attained, but success in some measure compatible with the individual horoscope will certainly be possible on June 24. It is a very good day to Harlem would soon send a Negro Representative to the Congress of the United States. Let all the Negroes in New York, irrespective of their nationality, get together and all other things will be added. (Rev.) E. A. ABBOTT Springfield, Ky. Has Confidence of People Editor of The New York Age: I congratulate you on the splendid work you are doing as a member of the Board of Aldermen for the people of Harlem. You are doing what everyone knew you would do. You have the confidence of the people. You draw no lines, but you show yourself to be a believer in the race. The members of my congregation join in warm congratulations especially for the traffic lights which you were instrumental in having installed in Harlem. Rev. GEORGE H. SIMS, Union Baptist Church New York City. Editor of The New York Age: Enclosed you will find check for the continuance of your wonderful paper. F. P. QUARELS Woodland, Calif. Montgomery (Ala.) Advertiser ... Elsewhere in The Advertiser today is a report of the annual commencement exercises at Tuskegee Institute. This marks the end of another felicitous year for this constructive and highly useful agency which from a small beginning has become the greatest educational center for Negroes on earth. Tuskegee Institute did not just happen. A combination of circumstances made its great success intransitable. It was founded at the right time that was founded in the right place, that is to say, in the Black Belt. Believed Herges hemerius is the Deep South Above. It was founded by the right man. The genius of Booker T. Washington met its opportunity at the right moment and made the most of Robert R. Moton has demonstrated his worthiness to succeed Booker Washington He has shown that he is not only a capable administrator and leader, but that like his great predecessor he is a man of ideas and an authentic cultural sense. Both Washington and Moton surrounded themselves with able men and the institution under such auspices inevitably pushed forward until today it is an immense establishment. The source of satisfaction to all enlightened white people who are aware of what is going on at Tuskegee Mrs. DePriest's Case From N. Y. Daily News. Washington, which can grow excited over almost anything, is in a flurry because Mrs. Hoover entertained the wife of a colored congressman at tea, along with the wives of numerous other congressmen. Mrs. De Priest thus comes in for some of the same sort of publicity as Mrs. Gann gets whenever she goes to an official dinner. It is hard to tell which of these ladies is in the more enviable position. They draw the applause from the general public, which isn't impressed by Washington's social complexities, while Washington society gets the public's laughter. Seriously speaking, Mrs. Hoover says a word of congratulation because she didn't hit political and other considerations bluff her out of extending a proper courtesy to Mrs. De Priest. seek health treatments. Do not forest. June 24. Mars is still in good aspect to the Geminians, and especially to the birthdates of June 14, 13, 15, 17, 18, 19 and 20 all this week Mars is very rapid in motion, and the opportunities that he brings should be taken at once before he passes. This is a very good aspect for traveling salesmen, buying and selling, and for increasing the financial capital. The best day comes to be July 1. This aspect brings good luck in speculation to those who have the good aspect of the moon to Mars, in the birth chart. The moon has passed the opposition to Saturn, but the influence of this aspect will last a few days more. Financial conditions and employment will begin to take a trend for the better, and there will not be so much difficulty in doing things as it has been. The birthdates of June 17, 18, and 19. Wonderful Paper Tuskegee Institute Commenting on the appointment of the new Commissioner of Internal Revenue, the Louville Loader said: 'The presidential appointment of Mr. Robert H. Lucas, Collector of Internal Revenue here, to the post of Commissioner of Internal Revenue at Washington, certainly meets the favor and approval of Kentuckians all over the heretofore doubtful State, which gave President Hoover and the Republican party the largest Republican vote in the history of American politics, making a greater majority vote contributing to the success of the national ticket than any State in the union. Mr. Lucas gets the oprt and major appointment to come to Kentucky and is by ability, party service, and popular choice entitled to it, and not a semblance of opposition should have come from any quarter. Few members of the opposite race in public life, political or otherwise, can number more friends and well wishers among the colored people than Robert Lucas and he receives the congratulations of them and the Leader. The position of Commissioner of Internal Revenue is one of those places that has been filled by a Southerner, under both Republican and Democratic administrations. We are glad to see that the promotion of Collector Lucas is approved in his own State. The Chicago Whip found a good word to say for the youth of today in an editorial headed "New Bodies." as follows: While the alarmists are telling the world at large that the younger generation is hell bent for the eternal: bow-wows, there are some things that we may observe and applaud. Compare the physical appearance of the youthful flapper of today with the young girl of some twenty years ago. Look over any gathering of youths today and cast your eye back to a memory picture of your own childhood days. There is a difference—quite a difference in their physical appearance and we are glad. Without counting the vast improvements that cosmetics, silk stockings, intriguing frocks, and other beauty aids have made, there can be noticed a general absence of rickets, badly formed bodies, and other physical deformities which were a common sight some fifteen or twenty years ago. Fresh air, sunshine, exercise and better food and housing are beginning to show in the younger generation. A clean, healthy and active body will do much towards making a clean and bright mind Help the youngster improve his physical appearance. Pride in one's looks is the foundation for confidence, courage and spirit. Remember that the youth of today are our men and women of tomorrow. Help them build better bodies and you will help build a race of men and women who will write a history of which you will be proud. This physical improvement should bring in its wake a corresponding mental and moral development if any lasting good is to result from it. The Building Campaign Committee for Meharry Medical College, in its appeal printed in the Nashville Globe, made a pertinent argument for local aid, as follows: The General Education Board and the Julius Rosenwald Fund have assured us of their willingness to give one and three-quarter millions toward a two million dollar plant and equipment, if Nashville and the friends of the college will raise the other quarter of a million dollars necessary. The merchants, business men and the city of Nashville have been the direct beneficiaries of the financially of Meharyar College for over a half-century. The past maintenance budget of the college and Hubbard Hospital totals over $180,000 annually. When the new plant and equipment and faculty go into operation, its budget will be more than double the present consideration of the above facts, in consideration of Meharyar's great services to the city, state and nation, in consideration of the great need and opportunity for better trained Negro physicians, dentists, pharmacists and nurses, the people of Nashville are asked to contribute only $50,000 toward the needed $250,000 for the new buildings and equipment fund. The economic value of Negro educational institutions to the communities where they are located, is worth considering ember 17, 18 and 19 will feel this aspect all the week. They will need to watch the chest, as they are included to colds and bronchial troubles. The people of these dates who work in dutys and smoky places are taking great risks to the health. Many important changes came to these birthdates last week and includes removals, the breaking up of family ties, the loss of mütch that is deserved and trouble with the health. Good music, pleasure of vegetables and fruit, with as little meat as it is possible, and as much sleep can be taken the best way to pass through this aspect. This is a good time to study and plan ahead. New plans begun under this aspect never turn out well. The readers who would like to know how to avoid some of these worries and to know how to get ahead, should write to Thearcher in care of The New York Age, 230 West 135th street, New York City. The birthdate, month, year, hour and place must be given correctly. If the hour of birth is not known the time of day, morning or evening, and the date of the month, should be written at the top of the letter. This paragraph and a sample ed and self-addressed envelope should accompany the birth data. rday, June 22, 1939 The 'enforcement of prohibition' seems to be as difficult on the Pacific Coast as on the Atlantic or Canada borders. The California Eagle of Los Angeles answered the query, "What, Price. Prohibition?" as follows: The stricter the law, the more drastic the enforcement, the greater the contempt. It is bounced openly by those entrusted with its execution. There is no fear of punishment, no regard as to the fine. The dereliction of prohibition enforcement officers has ceased to be news. The arrest of a sheriff or the indictment of a prosecutor fails to cause a ripple of surprise. Since the adoption of the "Jones Law" the hip pocket flask is just as much in evidence; the staggering inebriate, and the roystering "whopee" makers as obvious as before. The "noble experiment" seems due to have an ungrable end. We feel so secure in our national affluence, that the magic of the dollar will do all things, we are loath to acknowledge being on the wrong road and retrace our steps to the point where practical experience tells us to begin. We should be convinced by this time that unless the masses are educated to the harmful consequence of intoxicants, no power is sufficient to keep them from obtaining it. It would not be venturesome to say that the prohibition campaign inaugurated by the Government of Mexico will have a more beneficial effect in a decade than that of the United States with its expenditure of billions of dollars. Education of the masses, including the school youngsters, was urged as the most effective means of stopping the use of liquor as a beverage, while the enforcement agents were referred to as "human parials". That is pretty strong for a grape growing State like California. Pointing to the contingency arising after college commencements, under the headline "When Degrees Fail", the St Luke Herald of Richmond said The colleges, to a large degree, are not giving to its students the type of training that will equip them with the tools to do a specific job well, unless that student plans the study of a profession of further light in the field of education in post-graduate work Few are equipped to go into a business house and earn a good day's pay by means of what he has learned while working for the diploma and degree The world of feverish and effective business is the substantial foundation upon which our social institutions will endure. Especially must the Negro become a more substantial quantity in the field of economic development. If he does not, he will be the pawn of the white man and the slave of industrial life for the rest of his existence. When the boy or girl does come from a school reasonably well equipped with a training for the field of business, there are not sufficient well anchored Negro businesses to give them suitable employment. The few big Negro enterprises that now exist are filled to the brim with as many employees or more than the amount of work turned out will justify. In what direction must the neophyte with his training turn in a little more or another to handle invested money, and a bit more honestly on the part of those who are handling it will bring about an increase in the pooling of Negro capital to develop Negro business and provide employment for Negro boys and girls who come out of school into a field of keen and stiff competition. This is the further argument for the development of business enterprises by members of the races The Order of St Luke, has made a practical demonstration of what can be done along these lines Discussing the education of the second generation of Japanese in America, those who are Americans by birth, the editor of Japanese Abroad, a monthly magazine published in Tokyo, said. They, have a special mission of harmonizing the relationship between the United States and Japan by serving as wedgeges which facilitate the mutual understanding of the people of the two nations. Their mission is no light one and they need such training as will carry them through their tortuous voyage. Because of my opinion as explained above, I advocate the education of the members of the second generation in Japan But the selection of time and age of the child to carry out this plan is a momentous problem. The best period for the purpose would be after the child had grown to good American citizenship right after his graduation from the high school. By this time he will be a good American citizen with his American customs and speeches which he can never forget. He may then go to Japan and enter a high school, a technical school or a college. He will not be able to learn Japanese language very easily but he can study the rest of the school subjects just as well as in American schools. After his graduation, he may get a position in Japan And if he returns to America he will be able to get a position comparatively easily because of his knowledge of the Japanese language and Japan, which knowledge would be superior to that of his friends in America. The opportunities for persons of this kind in Japan are not scarce. A new problem is presented as to whether the schools in japan will admit these members of the second generation as their practice has been to enroll nearly returned children in first year classes irrespective of their foreign training .... CHURCH AND RELIGIOUS ACTIVITIES saturday, june 22, 1929 Grace Church of Harlem Grace Church chair fairly outfitted itself on Sunday morning when with every seat filled, they sang the morning anthem and they spanned spaces which were composed by the organist and chorister, Hugo O.

Paradise Baptist Church "Christ cares (for the 'body of men' was the subject of the Rev. H W. Stanley's Sunday morning discourse at Paradise. The pastor explained that Jesus when in the midst of a multitude of people, the way to the Kingdom of God, considered that the company's physical-body needed nourishment, and fed the five thousand people on barley bread and fish. He emphasized the fact that the pastor needs the proper care and nourishment in order to hold the spiritual food. 3 p. m., the Preachers' Licentiate Union met. The various speakers all seemed to conclude in the same manner "The right way to live." The evening was spent with a testimonial meeting, after which the Lord's Supper was served (for the crowned queen, which will be the result of the Queen's Rally on Thursday, June 20th at 8 p. m. Mr. and Mrs. J. Edwards, although living at Southdale at present, take an interesting part in the movement of the church and the community, for $26 for securing a larger place. Miss Priscilla Lawrence, Reporter. St. Martin's Chapel "Personality" was the subject of the theme discussed last Sunday morning by the Rev. John H Johnson, vicar of St Martin's Chapel, 122nd street and Lenox avenue. The text was found in the 13th verse of the 5th chapter of the Gospel according to St. Matthew: "We are the salt of the earth." In attempting to define Personality the minister said that "It was a precious gift of character that showed other tracts, charms and holds an unusual interest" an attribute of the spirit, passing too swiftly through the spirit, to be defined. "As we study the Bible records of the words and works of Jesus, we find that the Master of Men was sparing in his praise of people. He sustained people, helped and encouraged them, but he never flattered them. He was always prepared that most wonderful "Servant" on Mount, Jesus turned to his disciples and addressed the words of the text. These fishermen, who were considered at that time as common people, were greatly embarrassed. But these crude men had surrendered themselves to a high purpose, because of their sincerity. All people belonged to the will of the churches and houses of mage, the Western world, today, are monuments to their lasting personality. "After all, there is little to praise in people. All of them are much alike—cut after the same pattern. But the surrender to 'a great purpose does create a light that gives life to a Jasting charm which transforms things into people, things to be said about people, surrender themselves. Such writers as Corinne Robinson and Robert Louis Stevenson believe that life itself is a great purpose. On the other hand, there are those who unfortunately sacrifice themselves for some unworthy person. But then there are those who possess that ability, and those trying to follow the Master. It is to those that Jesus is saying, we are the salt of the earth." A parish worker's service was held at 8 o'clock in the evening. Encouraging reports of the past year a work were made by representatives of the various church guilds. The most enthusiastic report came from the St. Martin's Boys Club which showed that they had brought home the bacon in almost every event, and compiled in the field of athletics. The Women's Guild made an excellent report also, this guild having contributed $480 during the past year to the building fund. The speaker of the evening was the Rev. Robert W. Bagnall, field secretary of the N. A. A. C. P. Among other things, he said that he was not surprised because the congregation had given support and co-operation to a wonderful leader. His text was the 6th chapter of the Ephesus "Be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might." In part he said, "The guilds are never an end but a means to an end. They are a part of a great organization whose to keep alive and give relief to a new generation great mission that of teaching the Fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man to the world." Flowers for the altar were contributed by Mrs. A. M. Dingle in honor of her mother's 60th birthday, and of Edwards in memory of her mother. Friday evening.

Williams Institutional C. M. E. Church Two appreciative audiences heard Dr. J. Blaine Sunday, it was Father's Day and due preparation was made. A fine dinner was served by the South Carolina Club. Three persons connected with the church. Sunday is quarterly meeting day. Presiding Elder Blaine will do the preaching for the hour. The assistant pastor, the officials, and members of the church are keeping the church in a fine spirit during the long illness of Pastor Bryson. The church is the coming of Bishop J. Arthur Hamlett of Kansas City, presiding bishop of the district. He will be our guest Sunday, June 30, and will speak at both hours of service. Mt. Olivet Baptist Church Rev. C. C. Weather of New Brunswick, N. J., preached at the morning service at M. Olivet Baptist Church, Sunday, June 16. His text was chosen from Acts 6.8, and Stephen, full of wonders and miracles among the people; and Acts 7.59. "And they stoned Stephen, calling God and saying, Lord Jesus receive my spirit." He emphasized the fact that like unto this wonderful man of God, full of faith and power, we call our next door neighbor and all with whom we come in contact will realize we have Christ in us. When one decides to serve God, follow Christ and live Him, some will get angry at you and kegen to stone you. However, in spite of stoning you obeyed Jesus and the world in general, we should hold on to Christ even unto death. Rev. Weather was baptised by the pastor, Rev. W. P. Hayes, eighteen years ago. The two Bible Classes met at the university. The B. Y. P. U. is making great progress. At the evening service, the pastor, Rev. W. P. Hayes, selected his text from John 21st chapter, beginning at the 15th verse, of whom the pastor Simon, son of Jonas, lowest thou me more than these? He said unto Him, "etc. The pastor said that Christ's charge to Peter was threefold, giving him a chance to commit himself three times, inasmuch as he had denied Him three times. "Feed My Lambs" has been interpreted as meaning, "children" "Feed My Sheep," as meaning young people and middle-aged people, and the last "Feed My Sheep," to mean elderly people. Peter was inquisite as to what work was essential to him, but Jesus had to understand that he should be concerned in his own work, no matter what he willed for John to do; Peter was to do his own work and follow Him. The pastor described how these humble fishermen had sacrificed their means of making all that Jesus promised blessings in this world and in the world to come in return for such a sacrilege. Nine people joined and $323.96 was collected during the day Wednesday. June 26, the 18th anniversary of the pastor will be held. An interesting program will be rented for the pastor's church. Afterward a reception guest to the pastor and his guests will be held in the dining room. Concord Baptist Church Sunday morning, Rev James B Adams, who will be out of the city for a week motorizing to the Sunday School Congress and other places with his family, preached on the old-fashion subject of Simons and the sermon that mentioned that some intellectuals had expressed the opinion that New York is bare of intelligent Negro preachers with two exceptions. Mr. Adams declared that he would match Rev. W. P. Hayes with any white Baptist preacher, for although they might be better scholars and have to spend more time with the intelligent message over so that the man with the dullest brain and the man with the brightest brain could get it. Sunday afternoon, Dean Lury Slowe delivered an appealing address to a good audience at the 26th anniversary service of the Ashland Place, Apt. 11, Pine Grove, Rev. Simon B. W. Drew officiated at the services with the purpose of raising funds for educational work. Monday last, Dr. Pauline Dinkins returned from the Baptist Hospital in Liberia, to America, to recuperate after an illness. Mist Ruth Occomy, R. N. who was to have been from Hamburg, Germany, because of a decided improvement in health. During the past week another of the features for new members was held when some twenty-five persons expressed themselves concerning the program of the church and the part they wish to take in it. Efforts are made to encourage them to enter into church fellowship these new people who join Concord group of worshipers. Bridge St. A. M. E. Church "The Concomitants of the Christian Life" was the morning topic of the pastor, Dr. Edward Ernest Tyler. The text was 2nd Corinthians 4.8-10. Dr Tyler explained that the topic was intended to embrace "the things that pallies the Christian life." He handed three points First, we must realize that the world is hostile to the Christian Second, the concomitants of the Christian life are that we must be hostile to every side, but not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed. Third, a gospel of hope in the gospel hope. Hence we must remember that while we may not understand why as Christians we must have such complements, that we endure will redound to the praise and glory of God. Fourth, we must ward. We must not go through the world blundering and not living up to the, will of God. We must give Him the right of way in our lives. Dr. Tyler closed with a vivid portrait of Jesus in the world and the hopefulness of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Four persons joined the church when the invitation was extended: In the afternoon, the Board of Class Leaders had its second annual sermon delivered. The Rev. George E. Blensvig, pastor of the A. M. E. Church at Douglaston, delivered a helpful message, John McCormack, president of the board, opened the services and introduced Leader E. H. Smith, who acted as master of ceremonies. Others who took part in the services were Leaders Taylor and Hazel, and the pastor, Dr. Tyler. At the evening hour there were many visitors, as it was known as community night, and there were a number of persons from the immigrant sermon was preached by the Rev. J. E. Harper of the Presbyterian Church. His topic was "God's Requirement Of Us." He raised the question "Is Our Christianity a Driving Force Within Us, or Is It a Challenge to Us?" The Mcish 6.8. He emphasized the point that God requires that we do justly, love mercy and walk humbly before Him. One person joined the church, despite the warm weather the three services attended by over 1,500 persons. Next Sunday afternoon, the Missionary Forum will hold services.

His purpose was to radiate from a master like **Booker** the light of the homely but ever living truths which must form the base of the Christian will of the WILLIAM HOWARD AFT, Chief Justice United States Supreme Court. that I might not sin against them. He brought out many points concerning the text that were helpful to all of us. 1. The verse states that the word was planted, not buried. When one buries something the thing becomes extinct. When a thing is planted one looks forward to its growth. 2. The word is a law. A law guides and KERPS. 3. The word is a statue, meaning a sign Jesus hanging on the Cross is the Christian sign which he should ever keep before him. 4. If the word is hidden in our hearts our lives would become like a flaming sword which would cut sin on the right and left. The doors of the church were open and we had ten young persons to attend Sunday school convened for a short session. Our B. Y. P. U. held its interesting session as usual. The lesson was discussed by several members and commented on by the vice-president. In our evening service, the Ancient Order of Israelites were guests.

Gus Moore Stars In One-Mile Race At The Yankee Stadium The sporting world is congratulating Giant Moore, young Brooklyn boy, who is a sophomore in the University of Pittsburgh, on his great race on Monday evening at the General George Wingate Memorial Fund games at the Yankee Stadium. A much periled event was the 100-yard sprint event bringing together Iddie Tolan, an emotional Ninja runner of Michigan, Claude Brazeau, Texas sprint star, and a champion nationally and local sprint star. The preliminaries were run in two heats, in one of which Kemena Whean, well known Brooklyn Harrier runner was eliminated, finishing third. The field was crowded with officials, newspaper photographers, all anxious for the finals. When the starters' gun barked, the runners were off with Bracey in the lead. About 25 yards out, Tolan running like a flat, caught up with Bracey and ran neck and neck with him until the finish where he was beaten by a very few inhale. The 1-Mile Race. It was expected that the hold for the one mile run was a good one, but two expected it would develop into such a fast running event in which the world's record was almost broken. When the runners got off, Gus Moore, running under the Brooklyn Harriers, sprinted out into the lead cloud followed by Lutz and Ivan Lemmond. When officials clocked Moore at the end of the first quarter in of 3:10 seconds, they realised that the field was travelling at a fast pace. Moore was still in the lead when he was clocked at the second quarter at 6:27 10 seconds. The third quarter Moore still running ahead and he was clocked at 6:28 seconds. Beginning the fourth quarter Fernmond jumped forward and caught up with the sturdy young Negro trainer and overtook him to finish a lead of 15 yards in the time of 4:13 the fastest time recorded for the mile in years. Another colored stat was Ken- neth Wibaneau who was lead off man tor the Brooklyn Harriers in the rela event. He quickly forged a good lead which he team mates a good lead which he returned to win the event. Shaw Wins C. I. A. A. Title In Tennis; Also Wins The N. C. A. U. Baseball Champ Shaw Wins C. I. A. A.

Amid the cooling breeze of the Lafayette's gigantic cooling system, the Monday audience showed how thoroughly it enjoyed the show by calling for encore after encore One of the reasons for the remarkably fine entertainment which the Lafayette is presenting under the title of "Southland Nights" is the size and quality of the cast includes The Six Crackerjacks, The Four Peppershakers, The Three Brownns, Cora La Redd, Arthur Jones, Susyave Brown, Sammy Van Fursterville, and Wendie Wheeler. As a group of dancers singers and dancers, this group of players is undoubtedly one of the finest which has ever been assembled in one show. After this Week's engagement at the Lafayette, the troupe is leaving for Chicago to begin a tour of the large theatres of the West. Prillermans band, which is furnishing the music for "Southland Nights" will also accompany the troupe. The photoplay program being presented with Southland Nights is of unusual excellence—the trainings with Willie Mack's stilting Underworld melodrama. The Voices of the City An added, and much-appreciated number on the program was the singing on the love song from "Aida" by Martinez—the greatest singer. This, of course, is accomplished on the Vitaphone. NEXT WEEK'S SHOP Louis Armstrong, the greatest comedian, will make his first appearance in a local theatre next week when he and his band will take part in the presentation of 'MOVI ALOHA', a gorgeous and funny musical comedy which will be presented at the Leaflett Theatre next week. The realistic picture for the week will be "Clear the Decks" starring Reginald Denny This Week At Lincoln Roaring comedy, enraged dancing, beautiful girls, gripping drama and a touching, romantic feature photoplay combine to make this week's show at the Lincoln an outstanding fine show. Jackie Mabley and Fimmett Anthony supply most of the side-splitting fun, Jimmie Marshall's Dancing Girls and a team of tap dancers, new to Harlem, do most of the acrobatic dancing and the drama is supplied by Ida Anderson and her wonderful company of dramatica players. The feature photoplay is "Show Tells," a heart touching story of life and love behind the footlights. "The Third Degree" is the title of the drama being presented by the Ida Anderson Players. All the favorites of the large company do excellent work in this gripping story of the Police and the Under "Show Folks," the feature of the big photoplay program tells one of the sweetest love stories. The background of the back stage makes the story still more fascinating. Marks, Hilda Affley, Billy Shepherd, William Edinson, Alfred Chester, Bebe Townsend and others in the cast were applauded to the echoe during and after the performance. **NEXT WEEK'S SHOW** The combination of drama, musical comedy and photoplays which are framing the story of Lincoln Thatcher will be continued next week. This time the musical comedy part of the program will predominate—the drama being a hott tense play. The feature phoplays for the week will be 'Captain Swagger' a story of murder and intrigue on the ocean At The Roosevelt Theatre Starting Saturday, June 22nd, four four days only, the Rosenthal feature presentation will be Scand Laura Laurel La Palette's newest starring vehicle, Scandal is a talking picture with well delivered logical dialogue, good acting, a dramatic story and excellent settings and photography Miss La Elante is supported by a strong cast including Huntley Gordon John Boles and Jane Winton Wesley Ruggle directed it from the store by Adela Ruggle St Safety hats: Washington Riggs and Yancey Riggs bases - Smith (2) Riggs - Melton Washington and Correa - Two base hats - Smith (4) Riggs - Melton (2) Laber (2) Ramses, Barre, Scales, Altones and Yancey.

At The Renaissance If you have not yet seen Clara Bow in "The Wild Party," at the Renaissance Theatre, by all means see it before it closes on Saturday night. It is one of those rollin' all, action, all-talking productions, the first in which the famous star has an alltalking port, and one which lovers of the better talkies are certain to enjoy. Commencing Sunday, Jeanne Eagles in "The Letter," another all-talking production, comes to the Renaissance Theatre for five days. This is one of those absorbing heart throb stories, dealing with the married life of a conventional English pair, apparently happily married The wife, Leslie Crosbie (Jeanne Eagles) is carrying on an affair with a man for years. Hearing that he is about to discard her for a Chinese woman, Mrs Crosbie sends a letter to Godfrey Hammond, (Herbert Marshall) demanding that he come to her at once. He does and she kills him. Later, the letter shows up and gives damaging evidence. See and hear this wonderful story from start to finish all next week. It is one that you will long remember. Keep in mind we return to the Renaissance Theatre or that masterpiece of the spoken screen "Hearts in Dixie." It is coming back by special request The Alhambra Theatre **Shockout, Kid Kirby,** a comedy-drama of the prize-fighting, has the audiences roaring at the Alhambra this week. This sprightly play, with its actual prize-fighting climax is the poppiest of all the up-to-date dramas that have been presented by the Alhambra Players. Thomas Mosesley is the most little man, who, through a case of mistaken identity, is compelled against his will to put on the gloves and battle the champion, thus ending the funniest prize-fight ever seen. "Rose-Time Resure" has its jolly surprises, including the presentation of gorgeous roses to every lady in the audience with complements of the Alhambra. It starts with the sixteen versa-tile Alhambra Girls in a unique routine while Jesse Cryor sings Luckeyth Robert's exquisite composition. "Rose-Time and You" Dainty Alma Travis joins with Lily Yuen in a "sister act" that brings many encoses. Bruce Johnson is a comedian who plays music on a washboard and the audience can't get enough of it. Sandy Burna and Pigmeat Markham, of course, lead the fun right up to a splondd finale consisting on the famous drill of the "Wooden Soldiers". Bert Lelert Jr."The First Night" is the picture feature of the triple program. NEXT WEEK'S SHOW "My Carnival Girl," the drama next week will take the Alhambra Players into another 'new and strange environments.' It is the romance of the lovely little trickster or a traveling show—a sort of tomboy daredevil girl, or the keep-cool novelty to be presented by Sandy Burns and his gals, including some new ones. Dorothy Phillip will be the picture star, in "Broken Gates" At The New Douglas Beginning Saturday for four days, the New Douglas has the honor of presenting, for the first time in Harlem, Cecil B. DeMille's newest sensation, "The Goddess Girl." This latest contribution to the American screen for the famous director of "The Ten Commandments" and "King of Kings" is in every sense a masterpiece. It is dramatic, an investiture massive, its theme exceptionally impressive. This cast is one of the strongest ever chosen for any photoplay. The Goddess Girl is a powerful arrangement of the effect of presence upon modern day youth and more on less reprehensible practices in modern reformatories. Although the picture presents in graphic style truths of which it simply is amply aware, it is no preamble but from start to finish, virtue screen entertainment that will delight and amaze film lovers everywhere. Among the prominent players who interpret this extraordinary story are Lana Basquette, former Ellies girl and dancer, Marie Prejohns which appeared in the Cosmopolitan Magazine. The plot shows the struggle of a young woman to keep her past from wrecking her future, and is suspenseful and gripping, through the roles. Miss La Plante ever had and was made after completing her great role as Magnolia in Show Boat' with its months of training and varied characterizations.

ACTIVITIES AMONG UNION MUSICIANS By PERCIVAL OUTRAM "Blackbirds," the Lew Leahie show that entertained Broadway for a very long time, and recently embarked for Paris, was succeeded by a second company, which took the original "Blackbirds" place at the Elfing Theatre on Broadway. This second. "Blackbirds" company, after moulding for a few weeks, fluttered and died the last performance being played on June 15. Perhaps the psychology would not grant the second show the patronage extended the original show. The demise of Blackbirds' left a profound impact on heart-broken and "cut-up" as the men comprising the orchestra of "Blackbirds" No 2 Various and many allegations have been made concerning the orchestra. Local 802, and the manager, which we will endeavor to recite Hall, the bass player, was hired by Mr. Leslie before he took Troup No. 1 over the seas. At the expiration of week, Hall, on pay night, claimed more salary than the manager paid him. The manager not only refused Hall more money, but "bired" him. On Hall's explanation to Canavan of Local 802. Mr. Canavan sent Sergente-at-Arms Minton to interview the manager of "Blackbirds" about Hall and to make a report to the Local or the names and salary list of the men in the orchestra. It is alleged that Minton reported that the manager and Aller Ross both reported that Hall's work was not satisfactory. Hall was there fore debarred from working another week, as he otherwise would have been legally entitled On viewing the galaxy list, it is said that Mr. Canavan directed charges to be filed against the leader each of the men in the orchestra for working the union on scale for a non-contracting house, as the house that sheltered "Blackbirds" is claimed to be. A contracting house is a place where at least four men are kept on the pay roll all the year round, whether it is opened or closed. The salary of at least four men being paid into Local 802 when and when it is closed. A show cones in the house when four men form part of the orchestra. A non-contracting house is where a place is opened to any show that comes along for a run as long as it can, to be replaced by another or others, and no responsibility of retaining any men on the pay roll when the house is in darkness. The price per man for a contracting house is less than $100 per week. A non-contracting house pays each musician $100 per week, plus $12 for a midnight show. A man who doubles gets $115, and the leader of the orchestra should get $150 per week. The trial board found the leader and whole orchestra guilty of the charge of working under price in a non-contracting house. As is customary, the 'Blackbirds' leader and orchestra will be notified by mail as to amount of the fine. Asked by some of the orchestra for suggestions as to procedure, Marianan advised them, said to form a committee and aproach the manager of 'Blackbirds' about the difference in their salary. Allie Ross, the leader, was appointed ed chairman of the committee, having aids Hugh Davis, Bullock and Harry Hull, members of the orchestra. The manager refused to adjust, claiming he could not exceed in instructions left by Mr. Leslie Allie Ross, apparently, was also instructed, as chairman of the committee, to collect on the closing night all the musicians' salaries and take it down to the Local. Instead of doing this, it is alleged that Allie received the salaries in envelopes from the manager took the money out and gave each man the contents of his envelope, making notations on the envelope of its amounts and the C.O. of good faith, doubly acted in perfect good faith, and in accord with the other members of the committee, but the Union authorities are said to have considered the empty envelopes not prima facie evidence of the amount they contained. By this slip, Chairman Ross and his committee seems to have lost any expectations of assistance from Local 802. And to crown it all, their fine will surely stand. Harry Wiggins, banjo player, William Riley familiar, known as "Pop." saxophonist. Clarence Jones, pianist, and Hoakum Reed, drummer, have just returned from Harvard. No, not as graduates, but entertaining the graduates at the commencement exercises. Four days was their sojourn, and they report they were well taken care of, and their singing and playing highly appreciated, as is customary in their round of duties at Purdue Park, the West chester Golf Club, and other high class places of the clive they frequent in and out of New York City. Most musicians who have known Hoakum for many years think that the name "Hoakum" is an acquired name, but Hoakum says the name was given him when the good minister sprinkled his face at the font as he nestled in the minister's arms. TEXAS STATE SENATE IS SCENE OF NEAR-BATTLE DURING DEBATE ON A RESOLUTION DENOUNCING MRS. HOOVER in this column some weeks ago, intended to "can" the music for his musical show, "Just the Other Day" Mr. H's intention, it was alleged, was to hire a part of the Philadelphia Symphony Orchestra, and have them make the records with the singers. Then the show would be presented to the public with the living singers and the canned orchestra attachment producing the music, thus relieving himself of the weekly payroll of a 25 or 30-piece orchestra. Mr. H, at the same time, would have more space to grant the public. But union musicians are hard-pressed these days by mechanical devices, and perhaps Local 802 put a finger in the pie and spoiled Mr. Hammerstein's brilliant (to him) idea. It has been intimated that the idea was formerly pronulgated to get publicity. Be that as it may Mr. Hammerstein himself claims, it is reported, that Mr. Jerome Kern, the writer of the music for the show, rebelled at the idea of "canning" the music, therefore a living orchestra will appear with the show at its presentation. "Horseshoes," the reported name in New York applied to the Vincent Youman's show, having a large mixed orchestra and a mixed company, which opened last week in Philadelphia, seems to have changed its name to "Great Day," as indicated by dispatches from that city. Fletcher Henderson's Orchestra, blended with white musicians, and conducted by a white leader, as stated in this column recently, is rendering the music for the show, "Great Day" is scheduled to appear at the coming week, and New Yorkers will witness the unfamiliar sight of white and colored musicians working together in the pit. The patrons of the Douglas Theatre seem to have deserted the theatre, if we are to believe the statements of those supposed to know. Comparison is made between the attendance before and since the installation of the talking machine. Musicians who recently were ousted in favor of sound pictures are insistent that the fallen attendance is due to the absence of the orchestra. Patrons of this house liked to hear the orchestra, claim the musicians, but since the talks intruded into the Douglas, the customers fail to attend as formerly. Another reason stated for the changed attendance is that the Douglas is so capacious, the present talkies are not distinct in all seats. Mechanics are said to be working on the wiring in the theatre, so that better results may be obtained. The former orchestra of the Douglas laments the passing of the former manager, Mr Shapiro, who was strongly in favor of retaining the orchestra during his administration Mr Shapiro is reported out West, recuperating his health.

HOGANS EXIT "JACK'S" "Jack's" once the favorite meeting plac for the pinocchle hounds, what friends and pool sharks of Mott Haven Yards, is no more. The gang will have to find another rendezvous in which to pursue their pet pastures during off hours. Between the ruthlessness of steam shovels and preliminaries incident to the laying of the foundation for the New York Central's new office and store room building, at 161st street and Morris avenue, the old wooden shack, which served as a recreation center for the porters around Mott Haven, has made its exit. For the past five or more months, pick, shovel and other processes of demolition have been warning the frequenters that the life of the old place was fast ebbing. One day, several weeks ago, one of those modern Mack's steam shovels drew alongside the hut with a menacing swing. The dilapidated playhouse emitted what sounded like a shriek, followed by a moan of resignation, and went the way of its former pal, the old Luke Smith's Building. Like all these ancient Mott Haven landmarks, few of which are left, "Jack's" place had its history. For a decade or more, it was, figuratively speaking, the Y. M. C. A. of the porters at Mott Haven Yards. It was there that they met to argue, to orate, and to play cards and pool. The extent of one's adepness at any of these things were soon put to the test, and just as soon found out. One would also meet there, especially during the summer seasons, students of every type of profession followed by members of the Negro race. Art, medicine, law, economics, psychology and the ministry were all represented in its habitues. Besides being a pastime center, it was used as a convenience point. Porters who reported to Mott Haven Yards for their runs usually checked their bags there. So, with the revenue that came from this accommodation, and that which was earned from the card games and pool tables, the income to the owners made the place a paying proposition. The owners were two ex-porters. The place derived its name from these. J H Jackson is his name, so the place was known as 'Jack's'. Whether these men will be able to secure a place in the new building when it is completed, is not known. Even if they do, it is not thought likely that the New York Central people will allow any part of the building to be used as a pool room. One of the reasons advanced in support of this is that colored men are exceptionally societous when playing games, such as pool and cards. The building, it is said, will be erected so as to house all the various departments of the Central's and the Pullman Company at Mott Haven. In addition to these departments, it will contain a modern restaurant which will cater to the employees at these yards. From an authoritative source it was learned that in addition to clerical and storeroom offices, the Pullman Company will lease a part of the building especially for the accommodation of the porters. These quarters will be on the same plan as those which the porters have at Sunnyside Yards. At the Long Island yards building, the porters have one entire floor which is given over to their use. On this floor is a costroom, equipped with appliances for pressing clothes, and individual clothes rackers, a cigar and candy stand, an apartment for the porters band, a rest room, and a room in which lectures are given. There is also a room for shower baths. The report is that the Mott Haven building will likewise contain these accommodations for the porters. In addition to that, the moral side of the porter will receive attention, according to plans under consideration. This attention will be through the medium of religious exercises. It has been suggested that, for the benefit of those porters, might be away from their home districts, and for those who live in the vicinity and have no particular church affiliations, Sunday morning services will be held in the new building. No instead of cards and pool, the site formerly occupied by locks" upon harbor activities of a different nature. GIVING SOMETHING FOR NOTHING One of the most common opinions held by mankind, especially because of the less fortunate class, is that nobody gives something for nothing. This opinion is so widely prevalent that most of us fall into the error of embracing it as an established fact. Giving something something for nothing means those cases in which a person, or group of persons, gives something having monetary value without any expectation of reward or profit. Usually in such cases, one of the first things that occur to the mind is the average person—and, perhaps, for this he can not always be blamed—is that back of the something are hidden motives. Such instances of altruism always more or less suggest the proverbial monkey in the woodpile. And although the monkey may not be located, the attitude of the average person is that he is there just the same. A case in point is the Pullman Company's Free Insurance for Employees. This plan is what is known in industrial circles as group insurance. It was during the presidential tenure of the late E. P. Carry that this form of insurance was taken up for the employees. When the plan was introduced to the members of the porters group, many of them refused to have anything to do with it. One of the peculiar objections to it was that it was free, and the company wasn't going something for nothing. Apparently, it wasn't known that the man who introduced it was one of those industrial captains who had given considerable attention to the economic conditions of his employees. Before coming to the Pullman Company, practically all of his workers were white. It would be life to opine that it was more on account of these that free insurance to Pullman employees was offered. Anyway, no matter what actuated the introduction, the porters were included. When it was put in effect, some of the district superintendents, realizing that it would be a good thing for porters having dependents, interviewed some of their porters, who had refused to sign for it, regarding the reasons for their objections. As there was nothing compulsory about it, those who did not see the wisdom of signing, were not forced to do so. Nevertheless they were, and still are, compelled to undergo a physical examination, whether or not their dependents are prospective beneficiaries. It was during the address of P A. Sample at the recent memorial exercises for deceased porters that, in culligoring the memory of the late Pullman president, he mentioned that it was due to the decreased that this free insurance plan included the porters, and that the only exception required from the porter for his dependent or dependants, as the case might be, to receive insurance to the amount of one year's salary in the event of death was to sign the free insurance card. Since that address the writer had a conversation with S. J. Freeman whose duties and work frequently bring him to close contact with dependents of deceased porters in his district, and this question was asked the welfare man. What is there about this free man? He cares some of the porters to train from attaching them to him. Like it is with our President, Mr. Howe. Some other man with Mr. Freeman may not be quoted verbatim. The implication must be, however, that there are no substantial reasons why the porters may have legal dependents should not join the plan. According to his and Mr. Sample's statement the company offers the porter something for nothing, believe it or not. --- OUT OF TOWN CORRESPONDENCE Westfield. N. J. Westfield, N.

PRICE $10 LOCAL Girl Who Slashed Baby's Throat Is Insane, Says Lawyer Seek Funds With Which To Secure An Alienist's Examination of Her That Pauline Hudson, the 18-year old colored girl who some weeks ago cut out the throat of the infant daughter of Mr and Mrs. Samuel Dorfman because the baby creed so much is insane and has been for some time is the contention of her lawyer, Henry Abel of 475 Fifth avenue Pauline had been employed three in the Dorfman home only three days when she took advantage of the parents' absence one evening to attack the child, leave it wetting in its own blood and calmly returned to her former home at the Club Caroline in Harlem. When the parents returned home they had the baby rushed to a hospital where a miraculous operation and blood transfusion saved its life. According to Mr. Abel, Pauline was expelled from the public schools of Akron, O., at the age of 13 because of her queer actions and her family's persecution. Her family committed to an institution for the feeble-minded. This institution happened to be crowded at the time and she was sent to the City Hospital instead where she was treated for hypothyroidism. Ran Away at 15. She ran away from home at the age of 15 and had drifted about in Chicago, Kansas City, Detroit, Cleveland, Cincinnati, and finally in New York. An employment agency aided her in securing the job as nurse and it was through this agency that the police were able to trace her following the curtains. When arrested she calmly admitted her guilt and told the police that the baby was a pest and cried all the time. She has never since shown any remorse for her crime. Attorney Abel took the case gratifies when the girl was arraigned in court without anyone to represent her. He was successful in getting judge Harry Stackell of the Bronx County Court to appoint a lunacy commission but had no funds with which to employ an alienist to make an examination this client unless some interested person offered to her assistance with money for this purpose; the girl will be given a long prison sentence.

Negro Is Hero Of Fire At Governor's Island For his coolness, quick thinking, and prompt action in committing a dangerous fire when broke out in the United States Army Building, No. 99 Whitehall street, Manhattan, Mr Seth Cochrane, a Negro, residing at 301 West 150th street, who is officially to the superintendent and a War Department employee for the past fourteen years, has been officially byed by Colonel Bryan J. Phillipson, regimental commander on the luth U S Intantry at Governors Island, under whose jurisdiction the Army Building falls.

In glowing terms Colonel Phillipson wrote Mr Cochrane as follows: "I have been advised of the thorough and businesslike manner in which you took charge of the situation when a fire broke out in the Army Building on Saturday, June 1st. It is always a great satisfaction to know a man who can do things and who, in an emergency, becomes a real leader. From what I have learned about the fire and your action at the time, I am convinced you are such a man I desire to commend you upon the good judgment and prompt action displayed by you in extinguishing the fire in the Medical Laboratories. "The records show that you have been regularly appointed by Major Lemmon, Superintendent of the Army Building, as Fire Chief. You have now had some practical experience in fire fighting. It must have been or real satisfaction to you when all of your fire fighting equipment responded so well. We all know that could not have been the case if it had not been for the hard work of preparation beforehand. "It is my desire, and I am sure that you will cooperate with me, to have the Army Building the best cared for and the best protected of any New York City building.
