Illinois Elks Repudiate Despotism Of Grand Exalted Ruler Wilson Who Assumes Charge Of State Meeting
Puts Two Henchmen In Charge of Election; Precipitates Near-Riot Which Cools When He Rescinds Order; Friends Lose Places
Brooklyn, Ill.—The fifth annual session of the Illinois Association of Elks, held here, started off smoothly enough, but the unexpected coming of Grand Exalted Ruler J. Finley Wilson, with his automatic assumption of the chair and the placing of two of his friends, Frank Hunter, P. E. R., of St. Louis, and C. C. Valle, grand organizer, in charge of the balloting, precipitated a disturbance that bordered, for a time, onto actual disruption.
Though neither Hunter or Valle are in this state, Wilson made them members of the organization, through supreme powers which he claimed and then named them as tellers for the election of officers, declaring that the only tellers who could officiate were the ones he had named.
Then the trouble started. The forces supporting Grand Exalted Treasurer James Martin of Chicago who is now being opposed by Wilson, presented Martin's name for endorsement for, reelection as grand treasurer. Then Wilson's name was presented for a similar endorsement as grand exalted ruler.
"Hand-Picked" Tellers.
Mr. Martin entered strenuous ojection to Wilson's ruling that only his "band-picked" tellers should preside over the balloting, and demanded that candidates be allowed a representative. Wilson refused and then the fun began to fly.
Delegates from all sections of the hall left their seats and rushed toward the platform. A riot seemed imminent, and cooler beads sensed the need of some restraining influence.
Vice Lieutenant Middleton of Michigan and the Rev. Mr. Gaines mounted the platform and made urges and eloquent pleas to the men return to their seats, at the same time challenging the grand exalted title authority to run the election. Generally their pleas had effect and the men quieted down.
After Wilson yielded, allow a third teller, representing the candidates, to be named, and the election proceeded.
The result indicated the preponderance of anti-Wilson sentiment. The state president, T. B. King, is a cousin to the grand exalted rule and he was defeated for reelection by a three to one vote. Harry Wilson of Springfield was elected to the head, and George White of Louis was named as secretary.
Stopped All Endorsements
In to Wilson's arrival, the as-
sociation had endorsed James T.
Copper of Great Lake's Lodge,
Lodge for grand auditor. But
after the election and the over-
sight of Wilson's candidates, the
order ruled that no
candidate for grand lodge office
could be endorsed without the
cause of a dispensation by the
traditional ruler.
But out a stoop to the endorsing
candidates. The names of Will
Martin and Casper Holstein of
New York who is a formidable
candidate for Wilson's office, did
come up for a vote.
It was brought out that the
Preston Lodge, one of Chir-
lestest groups of Elks, had
Hostein, and that while
Lake's Lodge had en-
gled Wilson some weeks ago,
Lake had since held its elec-
tic officers which resulted in
the defeat of Exalted Ruler Poole,
a strong Wilson supporter.
It was a report current that

President Pace made appreciative mention of the cooperation given in the matter of the merger by the Negro press of the country from the beginning of the negotiations. Said he
"We were a people were saying we could not carry the program through our papers editorially and otherwise encouraged us to go on. We are grateful to them as well as to the local body or more than four thousand stockholders who by their votes have placed confidence in us. We shall endeavor by our efforts to merit the cooperation and the confidence that has been given to us and to build solidly and permanently this giant institution into a temple of service and a reservoir of profit and protection."
Interdenominational Ministers In Meeting Hear Arguments In Regard To Dual Party Leadership In Harlem
At its regular weekly meeting on Monday, June 17, the Interdenominational Ministers' Meeting heard a discussion of the question of dual political leadership in Harlem districts but deferred final and definite action on the matter until a conference could be had with the Baptist Ministers' Union with a view to united and harmonious agreement as to the position to be taken.
The particular matter of interest was the question of dual leadership as proposed by Robert S. Conklin, Republican leader in the 21st A.D. who suggested that his district be separated into two parts, with a white leader for the Hergest section and a colored leader in Harlem. According to reports, Mr. Conklin's district has adopted this plan despite the pronounced opposition of a number of the voters.

High Tribute Is Paid
No Formal Action Taken
The dual leadership proposition was supported before the ministers by Aaron Smith and Edgar M Grey, representing the Appomattox Club, while Alderman Fred R Moore opposed it as an unwise move. The ministers discussed the matter without taking final action, but unofficially it is stated that the body is clearly opposed to the dual leadership idea. A committee was named to draft a set of resolutions to be submitted to the other ministerial organizations, torr. ratification, and the subject was further discussed by the ministers on the occasion of their annual outing at Bear Mountain on Monday, June 24 but no further action was taken, it being deemed wiser to await concurrence by other ministerial groups in order to secure unanimity or action and to present a united front. It is reported, however, that the ministers are practically unanimous in proposing the right that it is being made to secure full leadership in the Harlem Assembly Districts where the Negro is largely in the majority. Some of the ministers declared themselves personally but official action was deferred.
The Ministers' Meeting will hold no more meetings until the call to the executive committee with Kev M C Strachan acting as chairman in the stead of the Rev W. Noble. Weobly will work on a body to take up the question with representatives of the other ministerial groups.
Dr. Sims Takes Strong Stand.
That the Baptist Ministers Union will act against the dual leadership suggestion is indicated by the pronounced stand taken by the Rev Dr George H Sims pastor of Union Baptist Church and one of the strongest and most influential ministers in that church group Dr
Fillmore Commended
By Brother Soldier
LieutCol Charles W Fillmore, whose announcement as candidate for executive member and leader, Republican County Committee, 19th A.D., was made in last week's issue of The Age, has received a letter endorsing his stand from Major M. F. Dean, who commanded the Anmunition Train 92nd Division, A. E F. one of three Negro majors commissioned by the President, and who is now attached to the detachment of the 10th Cavalry now stationed at West Point, with the rank of first sergeant.
The letter says:
"My dear Colonel The news item I read in the papers with reference your political stand strikes me as one of the outstanding acts of our already brilliant career, and should not only mark an era of new political life but receive unqualified the genuine support of the Republican colored men and women of Harlem hacked by the Democrats in color. There is no doubt in my mind that with your background of activity and your capacity and political insight, much good can and will be written into the political history on the colored man in New York, thereby improving his economic condition.
"Such men as you must shoulder the burden if we are ever to emerge from our present political lethargy. The task of educating the colored man and woman as to the potency of the vote requires men and women of broadmindedness and vision. I shall talk to my friends in New York from time to time."

Sims declared with emphasis that the time is past for the Negro to be satisfied with any doing out to him of half-measures of patronage when he is in position to command as a right the fullness of responsibility.
The race in Harlem says Dr Sims has steadily grown in numbers, in intelligence and in economic value and must reach out to political recognition in order to attain its full strength. There should be no question of deal breakup being accepted as a top hand of the hands of the white leaders, nor they would not be willing to offer this if they did not know that the Negro has only to wake up to a realization of its real power to secure the wide thing.
The Key Rev W Brown pastor or Mother A M J Zion Church, who was a delegate to the Republican National Convention in 1924 makes the assertion that the Negro: Harlem is entitled to and should have real leadership, with control with Oldermans and Worshipping groups. It is just for the Negro to follow white leadership when the whites are in the majority, they then equally as fair for whites to follow Negroes under reversed conditions, says Dr Brown.

HOLSTEIN'S KIDDY FROM 18 MONTH YEARS STA
HOLSTEIN'S KIDNAPPER GETS FROM 18 MONTHS TO THREE YEARS STAY IN SING SING
---
Michael Bernstein, 29-year-old kidnapper of Casper Holstein exiled ruler of Monarch Lodge of Elks, last fall, was sentenced to from one and a half to three years in Sing Sing by Judge Max N. Levine in General Session on Wednesday, June 19.
Mr. Holstein was kidnapped on the evening of September 20, last, and held for a $50,000 ransom. The Police Department, led by Sergeant Samuel J. Battle made it so warm for a group of suspects in the kidnapping that Holstein was released after being held three days.
Bernstein, with three others, were arrested and charged with the kidnapping but Mr. Holstein refused to identify arms of them. However,
WILLIAM GREEN
LABOR CHIEF TO TALK FOR PORTER UNION IN HARLEM Pres. Green, A. F. L., To Address Brotherhood Meeting Sunday
The Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters. A Philip Randolph, president and general organizer, announces that on Sunday afternoon, June 30, at 3 o'clock, William Green, president of the American Federation of Labor, which has recently granted a charter to the Brotherhood will come to Harlem and speak on the Negro Worker in American Industry and the Organized Labor Movement at Abyssinian Baptist Church, the Rev A. Clayton Powell, pastor, under auspices of the Brotherhood.
It is stated by Mr Randolph/that it is to be the first speech of a series which Mr. Green will make in behalf of the Brotherhood and its fight for the porter, and will be probably the first time the Federation head has ever addressed a Negro audience under auspices of a Negro union.
In a telegram to Mr Randolph, President Green expressed himself successfully concerning the action on the Pullman Co., following the recent wage conference held under the company representation plan when a wage raise of $5 a month was granted. The telegram reads as follows:
No new appointment and lasting imp- plement can come to the Pullman porters through wage conference arranged between the representatives of the company union and the Pullman Management. The compa- sion union is impatient and powerless, per- mently bring about a redress of grievances and improve min- tage wage scales and conditions of emplo- ment. The future success and hope of the Pullman porters must rest with them and their devel- opment of a strong aggressive trade union affiliated with the American Federation of Labor.
Mr. Kandolph declares that since the Brotherhood has been granted a charter officials of the Feder- tion have been given unrestricted and local support and cooperation to the porters' struggles.
A splendid num- ber of organiza- tions are and are the Sunday at atten- tion of the company including jobs by Carroll Clark, Saritone, and Miss Agnes Therpe so馨ane. The Dr. A Clayton Powell will be master of ceremonies introducing Mr. Kandolph, who will in turn preside. The invocation will be offered to the Rev Dr Wul- lf Haines, Mr. Oulet Bap- lest Charge, and the Rev Dr William Lloyd pastor of St. James Presbyterian Church, will be with Addison Lare Revue this
they were held for a further hearing and on the eve of this hearing, Bernstein disappeared, jumping a $10,000 bail
He was re arrested on December 20 and said that he too had been kidnapped. Although he Bernstein insisted he was innocent, he was indicted and this time held in $25,000 bail. On the eve of his trial, Bernstein changed the plea from not guilty to guilty
It is reported that Bernstein took full responsibility for the crime rather than incur the wrath of other members of the alleged gang by implicating them.
Several wealth Harlemites were in a list which the kidnappers had planned to use to blackmail or kidnap and hold for ransom.
WARRING GARVEYITES MAKE A SHAMBLES OF HARLEM STREET IN FIGHT FOR LIBERTY HALL Sunday Night Quiet Shattered By Battling Hordes On W.138th St., and Many Victims Go To Hospital
Rival factions of the supporters of Marcus Garvey, erstwhile President-General of the U. N. I. A. whose sellings of stock in the Black Star Line led to an enforced stay in the Federal Prison at Atlanta, and his subsequent deportation to Jamaica, British West Indies, came together Sunday last in a melee that brought out police reserves from both the West 135th Street and West 152nd Street police stations, and sent divers individuals to Harlem Hospital with cracked skulls.
The row also sent some fifteen persons, including those in the hospital, to the jail house Sunday night, and to the 12th District Court on Monday morning, where they were held in $1,000 bail for further hearing on Wednesday One man, Vincent Wattley, of 248 West 138th street, was said to be the "General" of one of the factions, and he was held in $2,000
Sergeant, Samuel J. Battles of the 16th Precinct detective squad, under command or Detective Lieut. Thompson, was one of the arresting group of police officers; the arrests only being made after the warring factions had been dispersed by the free use of nightsticks, display of machine guns and a threat of tear gas bombs.
It was too much, and some hardy spirit, breaking under the strain said to his perspiring fellows "Let's drive them out"
No sooner said than attempted. They met a willing fire. The attackers, armed with the sabre and unloaded rifle which form a part of their uniform, found their way barred by determined defenders, similarly armed, and it was only a minute or two before a battle royal was being madly waged.
It was no mock battle. A club bed rifle, even if unloaded, and a glittering cavalry, sage are damaging weapons when welded by an irate foe, and both groups were angered to the killing point. Men and women, young and old, too forge, for a vantage. That
What Caused the Rioting.
A story of the rioting carriages back to the enforced departure of Garvey from these pleasant shores and a subsequent fight among the local leaders for supremacy in administering affairs of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, with the result that one group succeeded in retaining a right to use the title of U N I A, but lost the privilege of continuing to meet in the organization's long time headquarters, Liberty Hall, at 120 West 138th street, which had been the scene of some of Garvey's most gorgeous displays. The faction which retained use of the hall at a rental of $200 per every thirty days had to change their name to the Marcus Garvey Club. Not to be too far away from their old stamping ground, the U N I A faction secured quarters in the basement of the apartment building at 108 West 138th street but every time they found themselves forced to accommodate themselves to the cramped facilities of their meager headquarters there was a gritting of the teeth and a scheming as to how the conditions could be reversed
Some of the dissatisfied U.N. I
A members did a bit of Sherlock
Holmesm, and found out that the
Liberty Hall headquarters were
not held under a lease by the Mar-
cuo Harvey Club, but that a rental

Paid Rent For Hall
So one of the bright minds conceived the idea that by forestalling the Garvey Club in the rental payment, the U.N.I.A could obtain possession of Liberty Hall for its own assembling. This was done, the payment being accepted by Jacobsen & Jacobsen, they having no knowledge of any differences between the two groups
Armed with a rent receipt, then, the U.N.I.A group made a demand upon the Marcus Garvey Club for possession of the hall
But the demand was given the merry ha ha, and the U.N.I.A was told that it was mighty nice to have them pay the rent, but as to getting the hall—nothing doing
In fact, they were told that it would be all right for them to continue paying the rent, as that would enable the Garvey group to have that much more financial ammunition for building up their cause.
This attitude rankled in the minds and hearts of the U.N. A. members, and on Sunday last they were unable to restrain themselves when some fifty or more gorgeously panplied in the glittering accoutrements so dear to their imaginationas emblems of the regal glory of the kingdin to which Garvey would eventually lead them, paraded up and down West 138th street and members of the Garvey Club announced in the purpurus of Liberty Hall, shaded by its stunted walls from the burning rays of Old Sol, sent taunts of derson and result through the quivering heat waves to assault their care.
It was too much, and some hardy spirit, breaking under the strain said to his perspiring fellow "Let's drive them out" No sooner said than attempted They met a willing forer. The attackers, armed with the sabre and unloaded rife which storm a part of their uniform, found their way barred by determined defenders, similarly armed, and it was only a minute or two before a battle royal was being madly waged. It was no mock battle A clubbed rifle, even if unloaded, and a glittering cavalry, sage are damaging weapons when welded by an irate foe, and both groups were angered to the killing point. Men and women, young and old, toe to toe, fought for a vantage. That skulls were cracked and bodies torn ha doe heed in the fifty of their rage The contending groups surged back and forth, but shortly, as by common consent, the wider rearends of the street was made the battle ground. The streets were thronged with peaceful churchgoers, it being just a little past 8 o'clock, and these peaceful strollers halted their steps through a curious urge to find out what the excitement was all about. And then came the whirling police cars, bearing the police reserves, the detective squads, the emergency forces and finally the machine gun and tear gas bomb groups.
Tear Gas Bomb Fright.
At first the police uniforms were hard to be distinguished from their blue habiliments of the warting hordes. And it was hard to seep rate the curious onlookers from their battlers.
But when the machine gun, with its simister snout, was unlumbered, and there spread through the milling hosts the report that tear gas bombs were about to be set loose, there was an unscrambling of that crowd that carries no comparison, Wildly, and heedless all but the urge to be somewhere else, the crowd quickly disintegrated.
Then the police went about their work of picking up the combatants. The reserves under command of Captain Edward Bracken of the 16th Precinct, and the Emergency Squad No. 2, commanded by Sergeant Thomas Hines, united with the 16th Detective Squad under Lieut Thomson, took charge.
The need of doctors was quickly apparent: Ambulances and private cars were pressed into service and the injured were hurried, under arrest, to Harlem Hospital. At least three were found to be in grave condition. The vare

LOVE AND CHARITY.
The past six weeks have been busy ones for all of the departments. The subordinate departments were teeming with enthusiasm in the whirlwind finish of the drive for new members in this jurisdiction. In summing up the results, Mt. Olive Tabernacle No. 110 is leading with a large majority. Martha Tabernacle No. 11, is next in line with a large majority over the other subordinates, with Purity Tabernacle No. 11, being strong third. The other tabernacles have been making steady progress; while not in such large numbers as the three abovevenamed the interest was in the work. The entire jurisdiction is to be complimented for its work in the city. Crystal Stream Tabernacle of Mt. Vernon stands far ahead of any of the out-of-town departments in adding new members to its roll.
This drive has proven that membership can be increased in an organization when the members and officers combine for the common good of the order.
The Order of Love and Charity represents 97 years' of steady building and takes its place today with any other progressive order.

THE NEW YORK AGE
good family, where husband and wife, brother and sister, can in their leisure hours at home sit and converse and possibly map out some ideal plan for the general good of the order, which could not be done if they belonged to separate houses of the same order. This tends to promote the best of reelings for each other. While the drive is closed for the summer all departments will open in September ready for another year's work. The reception on May 37 was a decided success for which thanks are extended to all who attended the affair.
The juvenile sermon on the first Sunday in June at Mt. Morghab Baptist Church was largely attended: one of the features being the speller did showing of Fourth leaf of Mt. Vernon. The members motored down in a large sightseeing bus, and returned the same way making a-pretty scene of guardians and children.
Next month is installation of officers; most departments will close for the summer months immediately after the installation. Members of the departments are still working earnestly in cooperation with the Get-to-Gether Club for the coming grand lodge sessions to be held in September in the Rendall Memorial Church, West 137th street.

Henry C. Parker Wins Reversal of Damage Suit for $50,000
Henry C. Parker Wins Reversal of Damage Suit for $50,000
The decision awarding $50,000 to Mrs. Viola Owens for the death of her husband, Frank Owens as a result of a fall in premises at 59 West 98th street was reversed Wednesday, June 19; in the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court, First Department.
The action was started February 23, 1926, and the owners of the house, The West 98th Street Holding Corporation of which Henry C. Parker, well known Harlem realtor, is president, were sued for $50,000.
The woman was awarded $50,000 by jury and decision was reserved by Judge Delechanty who later handed down an award of $24,014.53. From this latter decision the owners appealed, and the decision of Judge Delechanty was reversed on Wednesday, the opinion of the Appellate Division being that the verdict was against the weight of the evidence.
Mr. Parker had as attorneys for his corporation E. C. Sherwood and William M. Sultzer, ex-governor of New York, who is Mr. Parker's personal attorney. Leo Moskowitz was attorney for Mrs. Owens
According to the evidence brought out by the defendants the man who had been killed in the house had been booked in the police station as an alcoholic, was not a tenant of the house and was unknown on the premises, therefore his presence was a source of mystery
The West 98th Street Holding Corporation has valuable holdings on 98th street owning the houses at 53, 55, 57 and 59.

Free Swimming Lessons
For Brooklyn Boys
The Carlton Avenue Branch Y M C A has made elaborate plans to handle great numbers of boys seeking to learn the art of swimming. The fifth annual Learn-to-Swim Campaign will be held in the Carlton pool from July 1 to 6.

Every boy will be given a form card to fill out before he will be permitted to enter the pool.

exercise in one of the public schools and the hour he had spent at 119 was the happiest he has had in many years
The mayor urged the pupils of this school to look upon 119 as their alma mater. To the teachers and supervisors who first started them on the road to education, they owed the greatest debt of gratitude and respect. He said that the City of New York had an investment of $210 in each of the 1,200,000 children in its public school system and expressed the opinion that those in this school would justify this expenditure. The Mayor also said that there were no special pupils in the public schools of the city. Distinctions along the lines of class, race or creed could not be justified and would not be condoned, he con-

Cambridge, Mass.—Harvard University, in its recent commencement program conferred the degree of master of arts upon Dr. Robert Russa Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute, Alabama, who was present in person to take part in the ceremonies.
Harvard conferred the degree in recognition of the service rendered by Dr. Moton in development of Tuskegee Institute as successor to the founder, Dr. Booker T. Washington and it is a notable coincidence that Dr. Washington was the first Negro to be given a similar honor by Harvard

Dr Moton succeeded to the principalship of Tuskegee in 1916, at which time the school's endowment totalled $1,800,000. This total has been increased under Dr. Moton's administration to the sum of $9,000,000. It is noteworthy also that the physical plant has been increased by a million dollars in building while the curriculum has been broadened to the extent that the school now offers the college degree of bachelor of science to graduate in education, agriculture, technical arts and home economics. In addition to his work at Tuskegee, Moton has given up the authority of efforts in the promotion of better relations and be a charter member of the Southern Commission on Interagricultural Cooperation. His interest in the M. C. A. work is marked by his holding a memberhip in the National Board.

MOBILE CITIZENS FORM PROGRAMS FOR NEW WORK Manual Training In High School, Bathing Beach and Branch Library
Mobile, Ala.-The introduction of manual training in the colored high school and effort to secure the provision of a public bathing beach were among the immediate objectives set by the local committee in interracial cooperation in a meeting held yesterday with Field Secretary, J. D. Burton Twelve representative members of the committee were present. The request for the introduction of manual training in the high school, which has been for some time a special interest of Dr E. T Belsaw, colored dentist, was put into the hands of a committee consisting of Dr Belsaw, Dr. I B Phillips and others.
Bathing Beach Needed.
The matter of securing a municipal bathing beach was delegated to a committee composed of Dr D H Ogden, E. G. Rickarby and E V. Peters This committee was instructed to investigate the entire situation and to request such action on the part of the city as might seem most desirable.
It was reported that the site for the colored branch library has been selected and that construction will begin at an early date. A lot measuring 100 by 110 feet has been secured on Davis avenue and plans are laid for the erection of an artistic structure of the same material and on the same architectural lines as the new general library.
Paris Cabaret Bars
Haitian Diplomat
Because of His Color
Special To The New York Age
Paris, France—The deterence of the proprietor of the largest cafe in Paris and the race prejudice oil in American customers resulted in the closure June 20, when Stephanie Alexis charge daffaires of the republic of Haït at Brussels, complained to Prime Minister Raymond Poincare and Foreign Minister Aristide Brand, that he had been shown the door on Wednesday night when he tried to enter La Coupole, famous Mont Parnasse dance establishment.
Alexis had been dining at the Coupole in company with Princess Mansour David, wife of the Crown Prince of Egypt. Following the dinner in the grill room the princess and her resent whose skin is of a dusks hair decided to stop in for a few minutes at the recently opened cafe in the basement of the cafe.
They were politely but firmly reused at the door by an attendant who said, "Sorry, but I cannot let you in. Formal orders from the manager Americans won't tolerate colored people here."
The Haitian did not insist on himself and the Egyptian princess being admitted but he complained to Premier Poncare relating all the facts in the case and reminding the Premier that $500,000 of France's Negro citizens are liable to similar treatment in their own country.
The manager of La Coupole admitted that the incident occurred and deplored. He insisted that his orders were intended to apply only to colored people of descent appearance.
The affair has reopened an old sure and Frenchmen are butterly complaining that Paris moneymakers allow their American patrons to lay down on the law and have everything done as they wish.
Jacksonville Mob Beats And Shoots Negro Worker
Jackson the Hla-Wen three bullet wounds in his head, and his head battered in from the butt-end on a revolver Jim Mencion a Negro carpenter, was found on a Jacksonville Beach street Wednesday night. A mob of unmasked white men had attacked him and had left him for dead.
The mob attacked him because he was sleeping in a house he was building for a white man. The house was in a white neighborhood.
It was learned that residents of the district warned the carpenter not to sleep in the house which he was building. He disregarded this warning and on Wednesday night, a mob in cars drove up to the building. They called Mencion outside and when he refused, they broke in and pulled him out of bed and beat him on the head and forced him into the street.
Investigators said that when the mob got the Negro into the street, after beating him they told him to run but before he had gone ten feet the mob started firing at him. There were about 40 or 50 men in the mob. When they saw the man fall the mob dispersed, getting into their cars and driving off. Police arrived about fifteen minutes later and took him to the Country Hospital in Jacksonville, where his condition is said to be serious although lungs are held out for his recovery.
Patrolman SANFORD JOHNSON
of 16th Pct.
HARLEM POLICEMEN AID IN RESCUING L WRECK VICTIMS Patrolmen Johnson and Scantlebury First On Scene of Crash
The quick action of two patrolmen attached to the 16th Precinct Station in West 135th street, probably prevented a wild panic following a wreck on the westside elevated line at 135th street about 30 p.m on Wednesday, June 19. In the height of the rush hour when all the trains were crowded a six-track avenue train rounded the curve at 101th street and crashed into the rear of a stalled Ninth avenue train, resulting in the death of a guard on the rear of the Ninth avenue train and the serious injury of several passengers
Patrolmen Sanford Johnson, colored and Albert Scantlebury, were standing on the rear platform of the train just ahead of the one struck and immediately jumped to the tracks and ran and began a work of rescue and calming the passengers, which probably prevented more serious injuries and possibly deaths.
Patrolman Johnson climbed abroad the train which was struck and through a window handed the life less body of the guard to his comrade. Patrolman Scantlebury. He also assisted a Catholic Priest up the ladders, which the tremen had run up from the streets by this time, across the third rail. Many of the passengers, who left the train and walked to the 110th street station, were directed safely across the third rail to Johnson and Scantlebury.
James McGlynn, inspector of the Sixth avenue train, jumped from the train and attempted to escape from the scene of the accident, but he was later arrested and is being held in $1,000 bail on the technical charge of homicide.
Fire Marshall Margo followed closely on the heels of the firemen and climbing the long ladders-200 feet from the street to the scene of the accident, proceeded too much for his weak heart and ended suddenly a few minutes after the accident. Patrolman John helped carry the body of Marshall Margo to the street on a stretcher.

"I heard of Black-Draught and how highly it was recommended. It certainly did me a world of good. So now I keep it in the house all the time. It keeps me in splendid shape."
Pains in your joints and muscles are often the result of poisons which have been absorbed into the system instead of being carried off in a natural manner.

Man Held In $2000 Bail
For Fighting Policeman
Sunday, Patrolman John L. Pen dregress was called to the apartment of John Hughes, 53, 318 West 134th street by tenants who claimed that there was a fight in the house.
Entering the apartment, the policeman said he saw the man, with an open razor in his hand, chasing his grandson and his wife around the house.
The patrolman tried to calm the man and ordered him to drop his razor. The man refused to do so at first but reconsidered and dropped the razor on the floor. He went and sat on a sofa and the policeman told him to get up. Searching the man he found that he had an open knife in his left hand.
Placing the man under arrest the policeman started off with him. Before he could reach the door the man jumped on the policeman and a fight started during which time the policeman and the man rolled on the floor. In the scuffle they knocked down a small wood stove in the room and the man picked up the door of the stove and struck the cop stunning him.
In the meantime neighbors called Patrolman Louise. Christanton who was on Eighth, avenue and he helped Carrington subdue the man They took him to the West 135th street police station where he was arrested and charged with felonious assault and carrying dangerous weapons on his person.
At the Washington Heights Court, Monday Magistrate Flood held Hughes in $1,500 for the assault charge and $500 on the dangerous weapon charge, for examination Tuesday, July 2.
For Shaving a Mustache Instead Of An Abdomen
Special Correspondence.
Baltimore. Md.-Lost here at a hospital one vermiform appendix, inflamed one muscular luxurant, and one job, regretted.
Except for the appendix, it was all of an accidental nature. The patient had gone there purposefully to love his appendix. He was admitted to the hospital and an order, was instructed to shave his abdomen.
"Abdomen! Abdomen! Yes, indeed. I shall it right off."
He got his shaving apparatus together and went right into action. When he saw the patient the first thing he noticed was the breech-hauled mustache, all waxed and gorgeous.
"Some abdomen! He is exclaimed, and started lathering.
The patient protested. He was not going to have his muscular removed without an anesthetic. It has been with him for years-all as long as his appendix—and he was a lot fonder of it anyhow than he was on his appendix.
But the orderly was insistent. Doctor's orders are. Doctor's orders he explained and went right on with his deforestation. At those words which sounded so convincing the patient relented as most anyone would. He groaned resignedly and let the orderly do the shaving. Later the nurse entered the room. Hello, she gasped. How did I get in here? It's all right to the patient. I belong here. I belong to the tel-

(Special to The New York Age.)
Richmond, Va.—The Hoover Administrator has appointed a Negro postmaster in Virginia and Senator Carter Glass of Lynchburg is all wrought up, according to reports.
A new post office near Thomas Jefferson's old home, Monticello, in Albermine County, has been named Blenklem, and the postmaster post appointed is Thornton J. Nightingale, well-known Negro Representative Garner, Republican of the Second District, recommended Nightingale. He and post office inspectors visited the neighborhood and reported twoeligibles for the post, both Negroes. He consulted acquaintances in Charleston ville and they advised his endorsement of Nightingale.
Practically all of the patrons of the office are Negroes. Blenheim is rated as a fourth class office and the business is estimated to pay the postmaster less than $300 a year.
White residents of Charlottesville and vicinity are reported to have been against the appointment of Nightingale because he is a Negro

ed dual leadership. This is essentially an effort to evade the logical results of allowing the majority to rule and dividing the leadership on racial lines by segregating the Negro voters on one side and the whites on the other, and dividing the leadership by electing a leader from each section. This has resulted in the choice of Charles W. B. Mitchell, a colored architect, and Robert Conklin, an Assistant State Attorney General, as the two leaders to represent the district, with a half vote each.
The point of the matter is, that it is universally conceded that the Negroes constitute eighty-five per cent. of the enrolled voters of the district, and that if they desire a leadership of their own race they could eventually set up one of that kind. In view of this fact and that the general practice is for the majority voters of a district to choose the most representative member of their group as leader, it is hard to conceive on what theory of political representation the fifteen per cent minority in the Twentyfirst district are entitled to retain half the leadership, which under the surrounding circumstances is bound to be the controlling half.
The special session of Congress called President Hoover to adopt legislation along with farm relief and reapportionment, after wrestling with these problems and evolving acceptable plans to set the situation, took a recess until the middle of August. This work was not complished without considerable argument and debate and the expression of after resentment by members of the two houses against the executive, whose laws on legislation they had to meet, his stormy session led to some new signments of the contending forces, which may indicate important changes in future relations of the two great parties, so long contending for control of the government.
The question has been raised by objectors to this division of responsibility as to whether the law will recognize a division of this sort, based wholly on racial lines. The situation is without precedent in this state, or indeed in any other that we know, unless it can be compared to the device of the white primary in the South, which is used to deprive the Negro voters of a voice in the choice of candidates.
For some time it has been apparent, that notwithstanding the Republicans have a party majority in the Senate, they cannot depend upon a majority vote for any party measures. This is due to the fact that a small but powerful group of Republican Senators are too progressive in their views to go along with their actionary brethren. In this kicking over of the party traces, this group of alcontents are aided and abetted by the democratic minority, who are unable to volve a policy of their own, but are content to oppose any measure that bears he regular Republican label.
While this dual leadership seems to rob the majority voters of the district of ostensibly only a half vote of the district, in reality it is intended to keep the real leadership in the hands of Mr. Conklin, where it has been held for a number of years, more due to division among his opponents than to any strength of his own. If he is allowed to pose as one of the dual leaders of the district, it is easy enough to be seen that he will be recognized by the county chairman as the real leader, despite the flimsy subterfuge of a dual leadership.
New lines of division have also become apparent in the House of Representatives, although the Republican majority here is better trained and party measures are passed without opposition under the compulsion of the dominant Committee in Rules. Nevertheless, upon the question of reapportionment, a serious break was visible, which menaced Democratic solidarity as well as that of the Republican majority. This grew out of an amendment, under which it was proposed that aliens should be excluded in the apportionment of members of Congress according to the numbers of population. The effect of this amendment would have been to cut down the representation of the large cities, nearly all of which are counted as opposed to prohibition.
That is why we regard this clumsy attempt to cheat the eighty-five per cent majority of the district out of real control of the leadership as a political confidence game.
A SERIOUS SHORTAGE.
The fifty-fourth annual report of the society for the Prevention of Cruelty to children points out a serious lack of provision in connection with its work in this city. The report of the board of directors, of which Vernon M. Davis as chairman, set forth this need as follows.
The fifty-fourth annual report of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children points out a serious lack of provision in connection with its work in this city. The report of the board of directors, of which Vernon M. Davis as chairman, set forth this need as follows.
New problems are constantly arising in connection with the Society's work, one now most acute being the lack of adequate institutional provision for colored children of the Protestant faith. There has been practically no lasting increase in the facilities for the care of these colored children in institutions either for delinquency, dependency, or improper guardianship within the past thirty years, this despite the fact that New York City now has the largest colored population of any city in the world. Again the directors' would urge on those who have at heart the community's welfare the need for further provisions of this kind.
Southern Democrats and Middle Western Republicans were united in support of this restriction of the power of the city districts, while the Tammany Democrats and Eastern Republicans were against it. As an offset to this attack on the power of the cities, their representatives hastened to support the proposition to reduce representation from the South by excluding from the census count the number of disfranchised Negroes. This proposition, which has been offered by a Massachusetts Congressman at several previous sessions as the most effective way to secure the exercise of the franchise in the South, was adopted as an amendment by the combined votes of Republicans and Democrats, among the latter being the Tammany Hall Congressmen. The occasion was notable as being the first occasion upon which the Tammany Congressmen failed to support a measure involving the right of the South to nullify the War amendments.
The nature and extent of the work carried on by this society are shown by the fact that over three hundred thousand children have passed through the doors of its shelter during its fiftyfour years of existence. The shelter is under the charge of a welfare committee, among whom are all the women members of the board. Kindergartens, playgrounds and a roof overlooking the park are provided for the little victims of man's inhumanity to his own kind, while arrangements are being made for their future. After the cases of their charges have been passed on by the Children's Court, they are committed to such institutions or private care as may be selected. It is in this particular, that provision is lacking for the colored children.
With both these amendments tacked onto the bill, one excluding city aliens from the census count as a basis for representation, and the other excluding the number of suppressed black voters in the South, neither side to the controversy was content. The result was that the principle of representation that was involved in either or both amendments was sacrificed to expediency. Both amendments were lopped off in committee, and the reapportionment bill was passed without any restriction on the census count of Negroes or aliens.
Abuse of children, neglect and improper guardianship are among the causes that brought more than thirtythree thousand little ones to the notice of the society's agents last year. These charges were fed, clothed, nursed and doctored until they were restored to normal conditions and arrangements made for their future care. Some were returned to their parents under proper precautions, new homes found for others, social agencies and institutions named to take charge of the remainder. The problem referred to in the directors' report is the lack of adequate provision for colored children in institutions of the kind necessary to care for delinquent and dependent children. There is a serious shortage in this kind of provision, which should be met by some concerted method of relief.
But the incident has shown that Congress is capable of dividing upon new lines, when the occasion demands. Also that Tammany representatives can no longer be counted upon to carry out the behests of their Southern allies, if self-interest points in another direction.
PROHIBITION AND PROSPERITY Major' Maurice Campbell, Prohibition Administrator of New York, has furnished the dry advocates a most effective
POLITICAL CONFIDENCE GAME. A curious situation has arisen in the Twentyfirst Assembly district of New York, which has resulted in what is term-
THE NEW YORK AGE
RAY THREE AND FOUR.....w slogan in linking prohibition with pros- perity. He asserted that prohibition is the chief cause of the greatest era of prosperity that this country has ever experienced. This encouraging news was broadcast by Major Campbell in an ad- dress made before the New York Sales Managers' Club, one night last week. Drawing an economic parallel between the years preceding the adoption of the Eighteenth amendment and those following, staffing was given to show that the greatest buying power of the American people was due to the economic results of prohibition.
The A
A Brief Sketch
Taking the average annual expenditures for alcoholic beverages, before prohibition as his starting point, Major Campbell said:
"In the years 1914, 15 and 16, the average yearly earned monies in the United States was $34,300,000,000, out of which was spent $3,591,000,000 for liquor or 10 per cent of the national income. In 1928 the total earned monies in these United States was the staggering figure of $81,000,000,000, and I ask you, in all sincerity, if I am not justified in assuming that without prohibition today, one-tenth of that income, or $8,000,000,000 a year, would that sum expended for liquor in the United States right now? "Make all the allowance you want for the purchase of bootleg, liquor, gentlemen—it isn't as big as they would have you think, anyway. But make a liberal allowance and then deduct the remaining billions which, without prohibition, would have been spent in booze today, from your yearly sales records and you will agree that the bankruptcy courts would have the busiest period in their history.
"In all fairness, you must admit that, because of prohibition, our people have spent a great portion of this immense sum in the purchase of the necessities, the luxuries and the comforts of life."
The increase of nearly two hundred per cent. in savings bank deposits during the period from 1919 to 1928, the almost equal increase in life insurance, the doubling of the number of students in high school, the unprecedented increase in the value of homes owned by workers in New York City, and the vast increase in wholesale values of automobile production were all cited as vital evidences of the prosperity due to prohibition.
Of course the bootleggers' share in this prosperity is counted in with the other part of the population.
LIBERIAN ELECTION METHODS.
We have received a copy of an appeal signed by Thomas J. R. Faulkner and dated at Monrovia, December 6, 1928, in which he protests vigorously against the frauds which he declares were perpetrated in the last presidential election of Liberia. He started off by asserting that the "ponderous irregularities and frauds have not been forgotten nor the crimes of force, bribery and intimidation been forgiven." He demands reforms that are needed "to make the country safe for democracy" and denounces the padding of the registration lists by writing down the names of fictitious persons.
The situation as Mr. Faulkner finds it was described briefly as follows: A padded registration, by which it was made to appear that instead of ten thousand voters, there were 250,000, more or less. Evidence of this rotten condition, but no court that would investigate and hear the evidence, on the ground of lack of jurisdiction. A senatorial election coming on, to be held under the same conditions. No newspaper press to give the facts to the public, because of intimidation of people and press by the present administration.
These are serious accusations to be brought against the government by a responsible member of the community like the signer of this appeal. Mr. Faulkner first went to Liberia twenty-five or thirty years ago to aid in the development of the country, and has remained there ever since, except for an occasional visit to this country, largely to secure machinery and engineering supplies. At one time he was in charge of a vessel that belonged to the Liberian government and installed a telephone and telegraph system. His appeal is directed to the citizens of Liberia, so it can be seen that he is not seeking foreign intervention.
If the figures quoted by Mr. Faulkner are to be credited, it can be seen that the leaders of the Whig party, who are accused of manipulating the votes, are adepts at swelling the majorities for their ticket. A few examples are quoted: Maryland county which has not more than 800 legal voters, polled 23,000 in 1923, the natives being called in to swell the vote. In 1927 instead of 800 votes, there were 54,000 in the boxes, Sinoe county has but 300 voters, but a return was made of 10,000 ballots cast. Bassa county may have 300 voters, but 33,000 were registered and 72,000 voted, according to the returns. Mr. Faulkner asks. "Can you beat this calculation?"
More figures of the same sort are given, showing the wholesale nature of the frauds committed, which it is claimed contributed to the reelection of President King. Mr. Faulkner clinches his contention that fraud was committed by instancing the arrest of the commissioner of election of Monserrado county a year later, on a charge of forgery in connec
tion with the printing of the tions is an evidence of pro-registration, law and the regis-gress, Liberia has given proof traction of voters. The excess-that she is entitled to a high five registration is accounted place among the nations. She for, because it brings moremight even rank with such money to the registrars, whoAmerican adepis in election are paid for the number offrauds as Pennsylvania or names entered. Mississippi according to this If the charge of fraud in elec-appeal.
THE AGE READERS' FORUM
Of Fairwold School
By JESSE O. THOMAS
Near Columbia, South Carolina,
is located a school for delinquent
colored girls called Fairwild School.
During the World War a large
number of Negro soldiers was
stationed at Camp Jackson at
Columbia, as a result of which the need
for some home for delinquent girls
became apparent. Governmental aid
was sought, which had to be accepted
by the State of South Carolina.
During the process of its passage
the word "white" was inserted in
the bill. Before the bill was passed
through legislation attention was
called to this fact and the word
"white" erased, but before the bill
reached its final stage, this word
had found its way back into the bill
and the money received therefrom
was used to establish a home for
delinquent white girls.
In spite of the fact that the governmental appropriation was misdirected, a school for delinquent colored girls was established by the South Carolina Federation of Colored Women. Some thirty thousand dollars have been raised by this organization in support of the institution. They boast of about thirty acres of land and a very adequate brick building of three stories. A group of students from Columbia College, who are studying corrective institutions dealing with juvenile delinquency, recently made a visit to Fairwold, uder the supervision of Dr. Mason Crum, who is giving a course in character education. One of the young white women by the name of Louse Buford made a report, which appeared in the Columbia Record a few days ago, of the visit of her class, part of which follows:
"The South Carolina Federation of Colored Women agreed that they must care for the girls of their own race. In 8 years, they raised $30,000, as impossible as it may seem. They bought 30 acres of land about 10 miles from Columbia on the old asylum road and built two inadequate shacks. They took in a few girls, but were in great need of money. A few white citizens of Columbia became interested, and in 1924 a
The Week of June 29 ASTROLOGICALLY CONSIDERED
BY THEARCHER
Jupiter is moving across the natal Suns of those born on May 25, 26, and 27 all this week, and this aspect will certainly bring some gain that is compatible with the present mental or professional state of these people. It seems that July 3 will bring financial gain through unexpected domestic changes, but it is not a good day for new plans. The influence of Jupiter is crystalized every time the moon enters Gemini. The moon enters Gemini on July 3, and again about every twenty eight days thereafter, and these periods will bring more or less financial activity, and gain to the folks of this paragraph. Keep track of them.
Mars is to come to the birthdates of June 19, 20, and 21 until July 4, and these people will need to step lively if they expect to gain any benefits from this transit. July 1 is the best day here, and before noon too. This is a very good aspect under which to try to increase the financial rating; to buy and sell, and to ask important favors.
Mars is in adverse aspect to the birthdates of May 21, 22 and 23 on July 4 and 5, and they will need to avoid quarrels with those whom they care a great deal about, and to avoid carelessness in traveling or in handling machinery and sharp instruments. July 3 is likely to bring a great deal of this adverse aspect, and is a day which requires much good judgment and care on the part of these dates.
The sun 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 December 17, 18 and 19 will feel this aspect all the week. They will need to watch the chest, as they are inclined to colds and bronchial troubles. The people of these dates who work in dusty 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 much, that is desired, and trouble with the health. Good music, plenty of vegetables and fruit, with as little meat as is possible, and as much sleep as can be taken is 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 turns out well.
The readers who would like to know how to get ahead, should write to Thearcher in care of *the* New York Ape, 230 West 135th street, New York City. The birth-date, month, year, hour and place must be given correctly. If the time of day, morning or evening, and the date of the month, should be written at the top of the letter,
committee led by Bishop K. G. Finley went down to the Legislature hoping to obtain an appropriation from the state.
"Bishop Finley related: to the Legislature, the incident which took place in 1916 when all the money was given to the white girls' industrial school, and pleaded that it was their duty to give aid to Fairwold. As a result of this visit, an annual appropriation of $2,000 was made to the school until this year, when Governor Richards vetoed the bill. "A year or two ago the school burned and it seemed impossible for it to be rebuilt, but the Episcopal Church, through the efforts of Bishop Finley, gave a piece of land about three miles from Columbia and gave contributions toward rebuilding it. The new Fairwold is a very adequate three-story brick building. I think it is interesting to note that one of the rooms in the home is called the Finley room, in appreciation of the efforts of Bishop Finley in behalf of the school.
"Fairwold has barely existed, but in spite of lack of funds good work goes on there. It seems unfair that delinquent colored girls should not receive aid from the state, while it provides to some extent for its delinquent white boys and girls, and for its delinquent Negro boys. It also seems strange that the judges of South Carolina courts should commit these girls to Fairwold, yet the state does not provide for their upkeep. The state soothes its conscience, so to speak by saying that it is financially unable to establish a school for colored girls, and has discontinued the small annual contribution on the ground that tax money should not be used to upkeep private institutions. The colored people are hard put to support the school, although colored people from all over the state contribute all that they are able to The City of Columbia gives $300 a year to the school to help provide for the girls from Columbia The physicians of Columbia render free medical service to the school
"As has been said Fairwold is in great need of money, and its existence depends upon the citizens of South Carolina. The good which it does cannot be doubted. Should not the State of South Carolina take up its responsibility and care for these unfortunate ones?"
This paragraph and a stamped and self-addressed envelope should accompany of the birth data.

A Bishop On Negroes
From New York World
After the utterances of the Southern Congressmen on this tea at which Mrs. Hoover entertained the wife of Oscar De Priest, Negro Representative from Illinois, the statement given out by Bishop W. N Ainsworth of the Methodist Episcopal Church South comes as a refreshing contrast "Such occasions," he said, "while social, are not personal, but official. The color scheme does not enter into the arrangement, and cannot. There is no more justification for the exclusion of a black man and his wife from such a function than there is to exclude a red, yellow, brown or white one. The President and his wife do not select any of them, the constituency does It is about time for everybody to quit seeing black only and having these blatant outbreaks about it."
The only statement on the subject which matches this for common sense is the one that came from Mr. De Priest himself
The Negro In Washington
(New York Herald Tribune.)
The loud loubs heard in Florida and elsewhere, protesting because Mrs Hoover entertained the Negro wife of a Negro Representative, are good old fashioned politics. Florida went Republican in 1928, so did Virginia and North Carolina and Texas, and the long-staple Democrats in those recalcitrant states are eager to find any stick with which to beat the Hoover. The lack of activism if they can find an excuse for shouting that Hoovercrats are old fashioned carpetbag "black Republicans" promoting the cause of social equality between the races, they will be only too happy; but their interest is political rather than racial
As a matter of fact, Mrs. Honver merely followed long-established precedent Presidents and their wives, Republican and Democrat, have received Negro Representatives, Senators and foreign ministers and their wives at the White House for three-quarters of a century. When the Hon. Blanche K. Bruce was United States Senator from Mississippi, Mrs. Grant received him and 45% wife, and President Hillary Clinton acted similarly with the twenty-one Negroes who sat in Congress in the decades following the Civil War. It is the exclusion of Negroes from the vote, not their acceptance as legislators.

Being reminded that the last general conference of the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church enacted a law granting equal lay and ministerial representation in that body, with the laymen having the right to initiate legislation, the Star of Zion propounded the following questions:
It is hinted that they may not be prepared to exercise intelligently the full privilege of their suffrage, and it is this phase of the question which should command the serious attention of bishops and ministers. Are our laymen informed as to the affairs and policies and aims of the Church? Are they indoctrinated into the principles of Zion Methodism? Are they loyal in practice to Zion Methodism? Are they informed on the issues of the Zion Church?
Are our hymn books used in all our churches? Is our Sunday School Literature used in all our Sunday Schools? Are the laity in general possession of our Discipline? Do they subscribe to the church papers? Are the delegates to the Annual Conferences, to the General Conferences subscribers to the official organ of the denomination? Does the laity know from week to week the big things and the little things going on in Zion? If the laity know nothing of the church save in a local way how can they be competent to vote intelligently on any matter that comes before the General Conference?
The Star urges the need of an informed laity to enable the church to put over its program.
Referring to an article on "Fairwold," written by Miss Louise Buford, a student of Columbia College, which appeared in the Columbia Record, the Palmetto Leader of Columbia said:
The article tells how, while tens of thousands of soldiers were in Camp Jackson during the World War, it became necessary to establish an institution for delinquent girls. For this, money was provided by the U. S Government which however, had to be accepted by the legislature. In the course of having this done the word "white" was inserted in the bill. The result was South Carolina took government money to establish a home for white delinquent girls and said in effect colored girls could go to the devil, nor has this attitude been changed.
The article tells of the heroic efforts of the Colored Federation of Women's Clubs, under the leadership of Mrs. Marion Wilkinson, to provide a place for colored girls, giving the institution provided the name of "Fairwold."
The legislature from time to time did appropriate $2,000 per year to help in its maintenance. But on the inauguration of Gov Richards it ceased, as this governor vetoed such an appropriation on the grounds that government money was being given private institution. The idea that the law requires a provision for colored people, when provision is made for whites, never seemed to have entered the mind of the Governor. He only remembered that the law forbids the appropriation of public money for private institutions.
The unfairness of the State in failing to make this provision is inexecutable, as it provides to some extent for delinquent white girls and boys and for delinquent Negro boys The Florida legislature recently made an annual appropriation of five thousand dollars for a similar purpose.
Taking issue with Representative De Priest whom it dubs "Our Verrulous Congressman," as to oratory not being necessary for a statesman's equipment, the Chicago Bee said
As to oratory and statesmen the claim that all that is necessary is to be assigned to committees, is bunk, pure and simple. The world knows that the two outstanding members of the last Congress were Senators Borah and Jim Teach. Both of them were insurgents, the former a Republican and the latter a Democrat Yet we defy the Congressmen to cite one member of the Senate who had as many important committees as Borah or Reed or name a dozen Representatives or Senators who could sway with their oratory the votes of members and influence legislation as these two disciples of Demosthenes!
The Congressman will do well not to make so many wild statements to the public and reserve his speeches for the floor of the House
What the Negroes of the Nation need most is a Borsh or a Reed in Congress, that the voice of the downtrodden people may be heard there and broadcast through the press to the world, that calloused men may be moved thereby to vote for measures for their relief and a sleeping public awakened to a sense of its duty. Any dub can sit on a committee and he dictated to by its chairman, who takes his orders from the administration, whether sympathetic or hostile. It takes a courageous statesman to stand as a minority of one if necessary, and then
which is a novelty in American history. When President King of Liberia, who is as black as the ace of spades came to the United States in 1910, he was received by President Wilson, and when he came again in 1921 President Harding welcomed him to the White House. Mrs. Hoover would have been guilty of deliberate insult to a tenth of the people of this country had she, violating precedent, neglected to receive the wife of an elected member of the House of Representatives merely because of skin color. The Southern Democrats who are protesting so loudly know that, but they do not care; their interest is purely political.

have the oratorical powers, the logi-
fe, the ability to defy his opponents
on the floor to a finish fight.
And yet the eloquent statesmen
whom the Bee admires, Senators
Borah and Reed, were famous mostly
as obstructionists, without any
constructive legislation to their
credit.
Pointing out the drawbacks of
separate public schools in the rural
districts of New Jersey, the Red
Bank Echo said:
The advocating of the return of the little country school house in South Eatontown is out-of-date and out of tune with our racial program. Here just a few days ago, the colored teachers in session at Asbury Park stated, by press reports, that colored children "as a rule were found lagging behind the standard" and stated it was due largely to "inadequate school facilities in many communities" in South Jersey, where separate schools are prevalent. This low standard will continue under such condition. How can we expect any, better standard with a colored teacher teaching three or four classes all in one or two rooms like Eatontown school was? There is no way for a school teacher to offer efficient service to this condition. They might say they can and teach, but who loses? The child. With the new modern methods of educational standards primary, grammar and high school, it is impossible for one or two teachers to handle kindergarten to eighth grade, and if they say they can, they are more efficient than white teachers, who know it is impossible to teach correctly and render good service.
Eatontown Board of Education did the right thing to close the school, and the Board was wise to stick by their ruling by teaching the colored residents that separate schools have no place in our free public system.
Our County Board of Education should close all of the colored rural schools in this county, for they are unnecessary burdens to the taxpayers of this county.
Separate schools, as a rule, mean inferior or inadequate facilities for the segregated portion of the school population.
Discussing Judge Groner's decision nullifying the white primary law of Virginia, the Norfolk Journal and Guide said
Judge Gromer's decision, does not mean however, that there will be an influx of Negro voters into the Democratic primaries. While the trend among the younger and more open-minded members of the race is away from entire allegiance to the Republican party, a large majority of those qualified to vote are still Republicans. It is very difficult to convince, members of our group that are past forty years of age that we do not owe, collectively, a very sacred obligation to the Republican party. Changes in doctrine, practice and policy, which the Republican party has undergone, in the past two decades, make no difference with them. It makes no difference even, that the Republicans in Virginia have accomplished by different methods precisely what the Democrats had the candor to give legal status to. So the Democrats need not fear that there will be any considerable accretions to their ranks by reason of the court's decision. If steps are not taken to curvent the decision, along the lines now practiced by Republicans, the Democratic party will eventually stand on par with the Republic party of the State where the qualified Negro vote is concerned. And if present trends in State politics may be taken as an index of what the future holds the Democrats can ill afford to spurn any votes from whatever legitimate source they may come.
The importance of the decision to Negro citizens is held to be that it removed another barrier to full exercise of the suffrage by voters of that race
The Detroit Independent hailed the recognition of a labor representative from that city as having much significance for workers of the race. It said
Mr. Benny Smith, of Detroit, Zone supervisor for the district embracing Cleveland, Columbus, Cincinnati, Indianapolis, Toledo, Pittsburgh, and Detroit, together with two other division representatives, have received their credentials to sit in the Detroit Central Labor Council, the City Division of the American Federation of Labor. This is significant for the laborers in Detroit and Michigan. Mr. Smith will be the first member of the race to sit in the Council of the American Federation of labor, this recognition has been achieved by reason of the powery organization of the Sleeping Car Porters' Brotherhood This is the greatest economic victory achieved for the group
In spirit and interest the American white laborer is very close to the colored man. Their ambition and standards are more alike than any other group in the country. They should be friends, not enemies nor indifferent toward another. Herefore, the capitalist class has played too much the colored laborers against the white laborers to include us as co-workers with them ourselves. To strengthen the national Federation, American laborers are entitled to a larger representation in our national political councils.
This sounds like an over-estimate of the importance of this recognition accorded colored labor. The Federation has much further to go before it can be regarded as dealing fairly with all classes of labor.
CHURCH AND RELIGIOUS ACTIVITIES
Saturday, June 29, 1929
Grac. Church of Harlem
A beautiful Sunday morning brought out a large number of the congregation and summer visitors to the Sunday morning service at St. Church.
Dr. Harold M. Kingsley of Chicago who had been attending the conference at Newport, was an unexpected visitor, and to him Dr. Barnett extended the courtesy of the reading of the scripture and the sermon hour.
Dr. Kingsley took his interesting and picturesque sermon from Genesis, 25, 27, 28 chapters, and as his name "Isaac and Jacob." The lesson taught was that we are too open apt to throw away our "birthright" for the trivial things of life and thus lose for all time the bigger and better things that come later.
Mrs. Elizabeth Moore, who belong to one of the oldest congregational families, was present and gave an interesting and extensive report of the Newport conference, supplemented by remarks from Dr. James who represented Grace Church. The seats of the choir were all filled and they rendered the anthems and the responses in fine voice. Church school convened at 9:15 a.m with a full quota of pupils and teachers.
Dr. Learner, assisted by the dean, conducted the evening song and prayer service at 8 p.m. Deacon F. C. Byer is mourning the death of his son on June 12. Dr. Learner conducted the funeral service on Saturday, June 15. Miss Evelyn Batey, a teacher in the Church school, and a aide of Trustee and Mrs. Anderson, was an honor graduate from Hunter's College the past week. Mrs. George E. Haynes and Oscar Williams and Trustees Edgar N. Parks have been chosen to act on the advisory board of the Dunbar Bank. Miss Helen Garner, superintendent of the nursery, who has been seriously ill is recuperating in Virginia. Miss Martha Strobart, who did such excellent work in the kindergarten, has resigned from that position.
Tuesday evening, June 25, Mrs Gertrude Christian presented Mme. Q Day soprano, and John S. Screen, tenor in recital. The proceeds are to go toward the refitting of the pulpit.
The prayer service on Wednesday evening was omitted in order to give members an opportunity to accompany the pastor to Corona, where he delivered an address at the Church of Rev. Mr Hinton. On Friday, Miss Louise Rampton and Junius Daniels were united in marriage by Dr. Garner at 8 p.m.-Elizabeth B. Davis, Church secretary.
St. Cyprian's Chapel
The regular 8 a.m. m. communion service was held and numerous members who were going out of town for the day were present. The vicar, Rev. John Wesley Johnson, preached an inspiring sermon at the 11 a.m. m. service, from the Collect for the fourth Sunday after Trinity. O God, protector of all that trust in thee, without whom nothing is strong, nothing is holy: In crease and multiply upon us our rule and guide us away, away pass through things, temporal, that we finally lose not things, eternal. Grant this, O heavenly Father, for Jesus Christ's sake our Lord, Amen."
In speaking of matters temporal, he advised our group to have confidence in our colored business enterprises, banks insurance company, newspapers doctors dentists and other professional men and business enterprises. He stated of the would live up to this code we would naturally have to live a well regulated life and thus in the end gave those things eternal. The regular evening prayer and trenon were held at 8 p.m. The year gave a long talk on St. Stephen. Benevolent Society and what a wonderful work it could do the people of the immediate neighborhood would join its ranks and dislike the sickness and distress of the neighborhood. A ride to Rockaway, Beach is held on July 24, 1929. The Sunday school will close for the summer and closing exercises be held at the evening service on June 10 at 8 p.m. There is an excellent program by the children.

St. Martin's Chapel
Last Sunday morning the discussion son by the Rey John H. Johnson, star of St. Martin Chapel, Land street and Lenox avenue, took the form of a resuest of the book "What the Negro Thinks" by Dr. Robert R. Moton principal or Tuxkee institute.
"Unlike many books being published today, said Mr. Johnson, opening his discussion, the curious book is justed for a reason for being written the purpose as expressive." The author in the foreword, is to tell what the Negro thinks, because of the race and color. The book itself is both accurate and self-quoted in the first two chapters, which Rey Johnson thinks are the best in the book, Dr. Moton assures first "That white people claim to know the colored man better than
really do because the Negro is careful as to what he lets them know. Secondly, that the Negro knows more about the white man than the latter, knows about him because there is no retracement on the part of the white man in his relations with the Negro.
"It is hardly understandable why the author has only given two short paragraphs." Negro Spirituals when these with their deep religious fervor together with the churches, are the finest contribution which the race has made to the white world. However, this could probably be answered by saying that the author was not discussing religion.
"In conclusion we must remember that the book was written for white people. It is safe and sane and in the author's own words. It is conservative."
Flowers for the altar were contributed by Mrs Harriet Harris in memory of her mother, and by Mrs Elise Hoyt in memory of her father Under the direction of Miss Clinton H Dingle, a Daily Bible and Pentecostal School will be conducted in the morning from 9 to 10 a.m. beginning June 2. The school will extend over a period of five weeks. The annual bus outing will take place August 1.

Mother Zion Church
Sunday was observed as Childrens Day at Mother Zion Church. A special sermon was preached by the pastor upon "The Call of Samuel." The speaker said in part, "This is Children's Day when we grownups are brought again into the sacred precincts of childhood, when we are to hear their songs, recitations, dialogues and exercises; a day when we set forth the cause of education and needs of our schools in the Southland. Let the children have the front seats today. They come to bring flowers and song. They come to bring girls and to make Him known among the children of men. Let us give them the right of way. Out of the spirit of this day will come our ministers and missionaries on tomorrow, our trustees, 'stewards and leaders, church school teachers, Christian Endeavor workers, presidents, etc May the influence of the day grow and abide forever." At the close of his discourse nine persons united with the church

into and directed by Kenneth
Timmis in interest on the R Y
Ulls took place Wednesday night,
one it with the special room of
the church, and the other called This play,
in which Thomas and his par-
ents took care required much of
the care of the young people, but when
he put in the stage proved to be worth all the work done to bring
such a success. Remarks were made on the business
of the stage in the church, and the
facts there could not have been
taken to hold such a play in church edifice.
Little night the people were out
with the regular prayer service. Buo-
LM Mulligan led Georgia Willis led the meeting.
Sidney the pastor reached at 11
am in "Hits In the Dark" in

Emanuel A. M. E. Church
Sunday morning, June 23, the pastor, Rev. D. Ward Nichols, preached, as his subject, "The Bible, its Authority and Abiding Worth." This was an instructive yet spiritual message. Rev. Nichols explained the divisions of the Bible and showed how it is a foundation for all of man's needs. The church school held its session at 2 o'clock. This department has grown so large that it has been necessary to give the lecture room over entirely to the primary department, while the other departments meet in the main auditorium. You will note that the hour has been changed from three o'clock to two o'clock.

Refuge Church of Christ
Monday, June 17, the local missionaries held an interesting meeting in the main auditorium.

Tuesday evening, June 18, was devoted mainly to song, praise and prayer meeting. The weekly junior church was held Wednesday evening. The junior church chorus under direction of Lesth H Gantian, has developed into a well-trained body of young singers. An elaborate program has been arranged for July 3.

Friday night, weekly divine healing services consumed the greater part of the evening, with Pastor Lawson preaching the sermon.

Concord Baptist Church
"Forever, O Lord, thy word is settled in heaven," Psalms 119:89, was the brief but absolute text upon which Howard Black, treasurer of the American Bible Institute, located in Manhattan, founded his discourse Sunday morning. He gave three main reasons why he, a business man, believes in the Bible: Because of its scientific accuracy, because of its toricity, because of the knowledge it gives of salvation and transforming power.
In the evening Rev. Roy F. Hill, one of our local ministers and students, preached a sermon with a saintly purpose and meaning. He filled the place which Charles S. Morris is to have occupied.
During the morning service a telegram from the pastor, Rev. Jas. B. Adams, arrived with the he and his family had reached Georgia and were having an enjoyable motor tour.
Nazarene Cong. Church
The Rev. Dr. Henry Hugh Proctor made a strong appeal at the morning hour for consecration to the work of the church as privotal in the life of the community.
At the evening time he continued his series of sermons of peculiar people in the Bible, dwelling on the "Wise Fool."
Preparations are being made for the celebration of the 57th anniversary of the church July 14-21.
The Nazarene Crusaders visited the Naval Hospital Sunday afternoon, and held a service of song and prayer for the shut-ins, many of them were colored.
The Enthusiastic Society held an interesting meeting Sunday afternoon with Leon Brown as leader. Among the participants were Miss Beaulah Farmer and T. W. McClennan.
Dr. Proctor will fill his pulpit at both services' next Sunday, speaking at the morning hour on "The value of companionship with Christ," and at the evening time on "How the Law and Order Program of President Hoover Affects the Negro American."
Bridge St. A. M. E. Church
"Heroes of the Faith" way the topic of the pastor at the morning hour. Dr Tyler used as his text, Acts 5:41, 42. He stressed the point that there is something fascinating about a heroic life, such as the apostles of Jesus lived. He told their suffering for their beliefs, and their suffering for their were counted worthy to suffer shame in His sake. We today should view our Christian life in the same light. But many do not, for so often in

THE material contrast between the structures with which (Booker T.

But satisfied and astonishing as it is, it is imperfect measure of Dr. Washington's work and achievement. The education and annual turning out of two or three hundred young men and women for wasted to themselves and their families is of course a most complete and helpful work, only one part of what he did and sought to do. His purpose was to radiate from a center like Tuskegee the light of the homely but ever living truths which must form the basis of real advance for his race, or any race—WILLIAM HOWARD TAFT, Chief Justice United States Supreme Court.

our Christian life It, seems that we take the easiest way. We should stand the test, such as Abraham and others.
As Christians many of us look for things that offend us. We should not do this but remember that we are a means to an end in the spreading of God's word.
We should teach His word daily live clean lives.

The Lincoln Giants maintained their lead in the American League pennant race by winning their fourth straight doubleheader at the Procter & Gamble Oval Sunday June 25. The local team was somewhat handcapped by the absence of Manager Lloyd and George Neales from the lupus but they still possessed enough batting power to but their way to victory in the game. The score of the first game was 12 11 and of the other contest 8 2.
A ninth innning, both gave the local team victory in the first game, after they had played tagged ball throughout the game. In the third innning the Imlins had a two run lead. Then Rector lightened up and the visitors began scoring led by Mask Iceleston, who hit a home run in the fourth. The scored 9 runs in four innings and were 1 run in the lead when the ninth innning came up. The South started the balls with a single. Ruggeri got back on base and then Henderson and then Negerson hit a two run scoring both South and Ruggeri. Melton also contributed largely to the victory by getting two home runs and two singles in two innings to the plate.

Never before in the history of Harlem theatricals has any artist received a reception comparable to that accorded Louis Armsrung at the Lafayette Theatre. The audience simply rose in their chairs and cheered as the most remarkable able to fall cornetists drew from his golden trumpet music such as has never been heard before. "Armstrong and his band are part of a fine musical rendition of 'Move Along', produced by Biddison Carey. With Bob Williams (Michele Bob), Galle De Leonson, Jon Byrd, Honey Bronson and other celebrants in the cast. Move Along is almost always a happy dance of gorgeous scenes. There is a fast-working and good looking chorus of girls brought here from a season's engagement in Washington. They had to respond to several encounters.
Bob Williams act as the master of ceremonies—a post which he has held for some six months in Chicago's host known colored theater, Galle De Gastin and Joe Byrd have been absent from Harlem for about a year. Their new "chatter" kept the large Monday afternoon audience holding their sides with laughter. Honey Brown received an invitation. She is beautiful in "Chairman" by King Salem in "Halleluja" who became ill before the picture was completed.
The photoplay program for the week includes, as the feature, Reginald Denny's latest starring vehicle "Clear the Docks."
NEXT WEEK S SHOW
Al Jolson, the world's greatest entertainer will appear at the Layette Theatre next week in his sensational Vitaphone Production, "The Singing Pool." This picture has just finished a run two years at the Winter Garden Theatre.

Renaissance Theatre
"The Letter with Jeanne Eagles is a Paramount 100 percent all talking production now playing at the Renaissance Theatre, has proven itself a good box office attraction despite the warm weather all this week. Because of its heart interest, the story is one that always will catch the fancy. See and hear this splendid picture. The last showing will be Thursday night.
Commencing Friday, June 28 for four days, Wallace Beers in "Chinatown Nights" with Florence Vidor and Warner Oland also starring, comes to the Renaissance. Here we have intrigue, mysteries, suspense, all wonderfully woven into an all talking picture which will keep your mind busy and keep your alert from start to finish.

At The New Douglass
Commencing Saturday, for a four day engagement, John Gilbert comes to the New Douglas in his latest success, "Desert Nights." The story, which opens in the grim and death-infested regions of South Africa, is based on the sensational and daring robbery of a diamond mine. How the manager is tricked into displaying a fortune in uncut stones, only to be made a prisoner and forced to accompany his captors into the heart of the desert country in an effort to escape with the priceless loot, is one of the dramatic highlights of the production.
The theme of the picture hints on the merciless revenge of the nine manager when he discovers that captives deprived by their quarrels and he is released in hopes that he might guide them to safety. His methods of torture in this primitive country is merely to keep them in want of water and he mockingly laughs at their terror of the desert and its torturing heat.
The supporting cast of "Desert Nights" includes Mary Moran, former Pollys beauty and Ernest Fortune, Stage and Screen veteran, besides several hundred natives and soldiers who appear in the early sequences. To miss seeing "Desert Nights" is to pass up one of the current season's most attractive screen offerings.
For the first half, they appear in "False Fire Alarm Company" and for the latter, "Knights in Venice." Are you looking for the return of "Hearts in Dixie." It will be back here soon by popular request

"Hot Chocolates" Is Highly Praised By Broadway Critics
Another all-colored revue was hailed by Broadway critics at its premier on Thursday evening, June 20. Connie's "Hot Chocolates" is the name of the revue and it is holding forth at the Hudson Theatre, 44th street, near Broadway. It is being presented by George and Connie Immerman, proprietors of Connie's Inn in Harlem. It was staged by Leonard Harper with lyrics by Andy Razaf and music by Thomas "Fats" Walter and Harry Brooks, and musical arrangements by Woods, Wilson, Edith Wilson, Wooding's, Jubilee Singers and LeRoy Smith and His Orchestra are featured.
Some of the reviewers compare it favorably with "Blackbirds" and most of them agree that "Hot Chocolates" should run for many months Robert Garland had the following to say in The New York Telegram
With most of its gold teeth and no little of its redness removed, Connie's new tanskin revel is a tar better show than it was a couple of weeks ago in the Bronx Windor Theatre. Nowadays, at the Hudson, 'Hot Cocolates' is faster, funner and a good deal tranker. As goes without saying, the dancing is marvellous. There is, or course, no Bill Robinson. And no Earl Tucker. But there are the Light Bon Bon Buddies who make Sweet Savannah Sue and 'Saw It With Your Feet snapper than they could possibly be without them. And there's Baby Sue, who uses her your bads and her feet superbly. And much too close to morning, there are the Three Mids, night Steppers who, earlier in the evening, would take the house by storm.
If the rest of "Hot Chocolate" lived up to its dancing it would be a show of shows. But the rest of "Hot Chocolates" does not live up to its dancing. Some of it is plain, ordinary torso tossing from the downtown buttesque shows. Some of it is childish prairie in connection with "The Wedding on the Rabbit and the Bear". Some of it is dubious, not to say dirty, wiscracks in connection with a female Ford and the pool room papa or whom every one has heard.
The piece at the Hudson gets under way in an excellent likeness of Connie not uncelebrated inn where Seventh avenue and 11th street come together. There you're face to face with head waiters waiters doormen, masters of ceremones guests, entertainers members on the orchestra and the like that bind, and a mustn't touch to mention Paul and Thelma Meers. Paul and Thelma, without warning, burst into "The Waltz" Nor will I find them.
Soon, however, the club revue comes into its own. This club revue is an enlargement of the floor show, which has brought tame and fortune to Connie and Connie Inn. That is to say George Staton, Ernest Taylor, and William McKeeley sing Pukahaman Land' Russell Wooding, Jubilee Singers sing 'The Song of the Cotton Fields' Margaret Simms and Laul Bass sing Sweet Savannah Sue' and the entertainment is under way. The chorus, of course, is helpful. Follow, in the order named. The Unloaded Son, a fairly funny sketch in which Eddie Green, Billy Maxey and Lumine Basket are leading players, the Say It With Your Foot' of which I have spoken, an embryonic song success known as 'Aunt Mebeshavan' sung by Margaret Simms Paul Bass and Russell Wooding's setet an a satire on price fight promotion which is nicely stressed by Jazpits Richardson Billy' Higgins and the atreses at M Green.

and the Hot Chocolate Drops try to be as much like "Diga Diga-Duo" as possible. In his own dance speciality, Jazzips Richardson is the outstanding feature of the evening. If you pardon the exaggeration, he is unbelievable. "That Rhythm Man" with Jimmie Blake, the company, brings the first act to a choreography these days. "That 'Rhythm Man' would be more effective without an accompanying orchestra.
In the second stanza, Mr. Baskete and Mr. Green are funny—in a quiet way, mind you—as clerk and customer in a telegraph office. And Edith Wilson is excellent in a song known as "Black and Blue" and dutterly than desirable in "Train in Harlem" and Dolly McLoruck and Madaline Belt aren't bad in Can't We Get Together" and Billy Maezy and the much men-toned Miss Wilson wint: the police in "Pool Room Papa," one of those songs which are supposed to mean two things but which mean only one.
One second thought "Hot Chocolates" remains fast, funny and trunk. It's only fair to tell you that even if it is no second "Black birds" the audience adored it, cry aloud for more and more and more

Wilson Lamb Male Singers Are Heard
An interesting affair was the informal rectal given on Sunday afternoon June 23, by the Wilson Lamb Male Singers at the Wilson Lamb studio in the Metropolitan Building 310 Main street, Orange, N.J. Before a small group of special invited guests, the singers, comprising a quartet, are standing with Mr. Lamb, and with an appreciation for his work with them both as individuals and as an ensemble they asked as a private audience to organize his nameplate. It may be of interest to mention that this is a group of four singers, some of whom have had church choral experience, and are at least, has been made solos in one of the Catholic Church choirs in charge since beginning his work with Mr. Lamb.
is a young organization, of re-
formning and, this I think, was
only their second public appearance,
have taken his sung appearance on another
occasion for the observance of the
week's Holy Name Society break-
fast, a Catholic religious service.
The singers are Frank Murtha,
first tenor; David Lewis, second
tenor; John Cairney, first bass;
and Clare Emmons, second bass. Each
is a soloist, and it was mentioned
incidentally that Mr. Lewis, who by
the way, is a licensed Baptist preacher, has only recently became a member of the group, and that formerly the sang first instead of second tenor parts.
He has assembled work there is
provocable and unusual sympathy of attitude, which results in a complete concoord of understanding and a pleasant harmonic result. There is not yet an entirely satisfactory modulation of tone, as there is a slight preponderancy in the tenor, but this, it is apparent will be eliminated with the further development of their work together.
The quartet numbers displayed a sincerity of utterance that gave distinction to the interpretations, and perhaps this was the most notable element of their work. In their solo work, each member gave evidence of artistic development, and, without discrimination, it might be said that Mr. Emmons, the second basso, was most pleasing.

HAPPENINGS IN THE REALM OF MUSIC
precitative audience which apparently enjoyed to the utmost the fine violin playing displayed by Mr. Douglass, even though there seemed an inhibition against any audible expression. But even so there were occasions when members of the audience could barely repress their inclination to applaud, but the individual outbreaks brought no concerted response and so there was only the waving of handkerchiefs and the swaying of fans until, at conclusion of the program, Dr. Ellerson led the audience in salvos of clapping for Mr. Douglass, for the choir and for the audience.
Mr. Douglass played several groups, evidencing the fact that the passing years have brought a mellow ripened teness to his art and a deepened consciousness to his interpretations. The sultryness of the weather mitigated somewhat against a clearcut technique because of its effect both on strings and fingers, but the player's artistry minimized these handicaps. Several changes in the printed program were announced by the player, each being of character that left added in interest and promise. Numbers by Beethoven, Dvorak, Badz, Wienawski, D'Ambrosio and Elgar, with several special arrangements by Mr. Douglass himself, made up an enjoyable and interesting program
The choir numbers were "Thine is the Kingdom" from Gaul's "Holy City" and Burleigh's arrangement of "Deep River." A trio of women's voices, Mrs Eden, Miss Brown and Miss Dudley, sang "At even tide it shall be light" from the Gaul cantata, Mrs Moss and Mrs Sylvester Stewart, soprano sang "Asford's My Task" in dactyre, and solos were splendidly sung by Mrs Bessie Cook Crudup, soprano, Mrs. Stewart and Miss Bernerdine Mason, contralto. All accompaniments were played by Mrs Alexander.
A substantial offering was given by the audience in appreciation of the splendid service rendered the church throughout the year by the choir. The benediction was pronounced by the Rev. H. A. Onque.

The choir of Concord Baptist Church, Brooklyn, Lyndon Hoffman Caldwell, organist/director will render Gaul's "Holy City" on Sunday evening, June 30, Mr Caldwell's group consists of forty volunteer singers. The lack of a quartet of solosists makes it necessary for the director to change some of the numbers from tenor to soprano, as he is using only voices that sing regularly in the choir. He says it is promising and will be interesting.

Brazil Opposes Negro Workers In Ford Plant
Sao Paulo, Brazil—The population of Manao is indignant because Henry Ford is proposing to introduce the American Negroes to the Tampa Bay Racial Residual plantations, as being received by the Brazilian news paper Estado. An editorial says
The American Negro has not the mentality and moral characteristics of the Brazilian Negro. The resulting severe complications will be more harmful than useful. We are not prejudiced against the Negro, but Negroes are not the best element of civilization nor a guarantee for race perfection. It seems to us that the Brazilian Government should do something to attenuate the invasion of these people." Adding that American Negroes have done nothing for Brazil although indebted to contributions of Brazilian Negroes, the editorial goes on.
"There is no reason why we should open our frontiers without reserve to the worst black unassamable element of North America. Hospitality is beautiful, but it has more dangers to accept a hanging people. To Negroes of race, the gate is open, but they are unwilling to leave the Státez."

DOINGS AMONG PULLMAN EMPLOYEES
THINGS SEEN, HEARD AND DONE AMONG PULLMAN EMPLOYES
By JAMES H. HOGANS
PERSISTENT RUFUS
It might be wall to give a woe. This story is not likely to prove for a job. In fact, it may be likenable for those who are interested in the admirer of persistency, and all the interesting character, the reading may not.
The story concerns a person used to be a Pullman porter, and we again. Indeed, it is this wish of the that makes the tale.
To begin, it is quite correct to from the Tar Heel State, and the which every child memorized before somewhat like this:

Rufus is one of those Sons he thought turned toward Pullman of course, making up Pullmanangers, who walked off without even a here and there were pretty hard things were not his lot every day, on the profit side of the Pullman this all over.

The bureau is of the supervisors recently remark that persistent, merits re-employment And it is quite true, Green added this agent.
So, that is the story of Rufus.

IN OFFERS EMPLOYEER
Pullman Company is offering its entire stock in the corporation, under this plan, the subscribing employee of $67.35 per share. The number subscriber for, however, depends on part of the rules governing the art of purchase:
Employee may subscribe for the price for each $200 or fraction over one annual rate of pay, based on his average of the three months preceding June in a maximum of fifty shares."
Payment for the stock will be in no of $2 per share, to be deducted wages of the subscriber.
This rule, porters who have been and composite car porters, operate for five shares of this new offer, which offers this stock, its design embraces the following subsidiary Company, Chicago, Ill; Pullman, Chicago, Ill; Dickson Car New Orleans Car Wheel Company, Railroad Company, Pullman, Ill. Only with "Gene" Roundtree, a Pullman stock, on the subject of a capital investment for the port which is selling on the market at partly soaring all the time, for $67.35, paying for it without straining one" says. It's a good way for the vintage to it, declared the farsighted the stock, you may easily the later event to send it to C and immediately comes your money of the offered stock is signed A. Crawford.
It might be well to give a word of warning here in the outset: This story is not likely to prove interesting, unless you are looking for a job. In fact, it may be likened to a Birth Control lecture—only for those who are interested in the matter. If, however, you are an admirer of persistency, and all the other traits that denote a persevering character, the reading may not prove so dull after all.
The story concerns a person by the name of Rufus Green, who used to be a Pullman porter, and who most earnestly desires to be one again. Indeed, it is this wish of the person with the whistling name that makes the tale.
To begin, it is quite correct to explain that Rufus originally hails from the Tar Heel State, and there used to be a ditty down there which every child memorized before he learned his A. B. C.'s. It ran somewhat like this:
If at first you don't succeed, try, try again."
How much schooling Rufus got before he left home is problematic, but there is one sure thing: he learned that ditty.
As explained, Rufus, once Pullman portered, but, like many others, thought he could do better at something else. Being one of those fellows who believe in acting instead of talking, he bade the Pullman firstness a rather hasty goodbye, and left for another field, one in which he expected his service safes to net him better profits.
But alas! such is life. He discovered that that he had erred. Twelve months away from Pullman environment convinced him of this. But as said, Rufus is one of those Sons of Ham who believes in action. So his thoughts turned toward Pullman again.
Of course, making up Pullman berths, shining shoes for passengers, who walked off without even a backward glance, and deadheading here and there were pretty hard lines at times. But, after all, these things were not his lot every day. There were days when he came out on the profit side of the Pullman service ledger. Rufus ruminated this all over.
So, knowing that this former employer was a veritable haven for comeback porters, he made application for reinstatement. Due to the service record he had borne, it never crossed his mind that he would encounter any difficulty in the matter.
But that was where he erred again. He didn't know that there was one thing in particular which this employer was inclined to iron upon, and he had been guilty of that particular thing. He had left the service when it needed him most. Whether that was the sole reason for the answer which followed may only be surmised, but Mr. Rufus Green was informed, most courteously, of course, that the indications were that this employer had all the porters it needed, for the present, anyway.
The average applicant would have taken that answer at its face value and let the matter go at that. But not so with Rufus. That old jingle which he had crooned time after time while picking blueberries and chasing rabbits in North Carolina still remained with him, and he was going to see if it had any virtue to it.
Then began a regular flood of correspondence.
First, a letter stating his case, was sent to his former superintendent. The answer to that referred him back to the employment bureau. The next letter was to the official over this superintendent. This answer was the same. Again a letter to the bureau with the same results. Just about this time, fate intervened. One of the bureaus' supervisors died rather suddenly. Thinking that his successor would not likely be aware of all the circumstances of his case, the persistent Rufus wrote him. Again he overlooked the little matter of records.
The persevering one failed to reason that there were two of those supervisors, and that only one of them had died. So, another courteous reply informing him that "no porters were needed" was received.
Now, that was enough to discourage a '49 gold seeker. But not our friend Rufus.
There was one more resort. He would write to Chicago, that tountain head of all Pullman activities. This he did. The reply he received was somewhat along these lines.
"Your application for reinstatement will have to be passed upon by the bureau at which you applied."
Rutus had really begun to think that there were some instances in which "try, try again" was useless. But seemingly a break in his favor has occurred. The bureau is considering his application. As one of the supervisors recently remarked to this reporter, a man who is that persistent, merits re-employment.
"And it is quite true, Green had a good record as a porter," added this agent.
So that is the story of Rufus Green, persistent Rufus
PULLMAN OFFERS EMPLOYEES STOCK
Again the Pullman Company is offering its employees the privilege of acquiring stock in the corporation, under the plan of monthly payments. Under this plan, the subscribing employee may purchase shares at a net outlay of $67.35 per share. The number of shares that an employee may subscribe for, however, depends on his yearly salary. The following is part of the rules governing the amount of shares an employee may purchase:
"An employee may subscribe for the purchase of one share for each $200 or fraction over one-half thereof of his annual rate of pay, based on his average earnings for the three months preceding June 1, 1929, not to exceed a maximum of fifty shares."
The payment for the stock will be in monthly installments of $2 per share, to be deducted from the salary or wages of the subscriber.
According to this rule, porters who have been running in-charge the past year and composite car porters, operating the same per-share subscribe for five shares of this new offer.
The corporation which offers this stock, is designated as Pullman corporated and embraces the following subsidiary companies.
The Pullman Company, Chicago, Ill.; Pullman Car and Manufacturing Corporation, Chicago, Ill.; Dickson Car Wheel Company; Houston, Tex.; New Orleans Car Wheel Company, Inc.; New Orleans, Inc.; Pullman Railroad Company, Pullman, Ill.
Speaking recently with "Gene" Roundtree, a veteran porter, who was considerable Pullman stock, on the subject of this offer, he desired that it was a capital investment for the porter. In addition to buying a stock which is selling on the market at present for $81 per year and gradually soaring all the time, for $67.35, the subscriber has advantage of paying for it without straining himself financially. Moreover, "Gene" says, It's a good way for the employee to save. His advantage to it, declared the farsighted veteran, is that he have acquired the stock, you may easily dispose of it. All you have do in the later event is to send it to Chicago to the Pullman office, and immediately comes your money.
The prospectus of the offered stock is signed by the company's president, D. A. Crawford.

PHILLIS WHEATLEY H
TO BE TYPE FOR HOME
Cleveland, O.—As a direct result of the establishment here of the Phillis Wheatley Association and the erection of a building in which to house young working girls, there has been formed the Phillis Wheatley Department of the National Association of Colored Women, with the purpose of opening homes of his type in other cities of the United States.
This Cleveland structure is the fraternity of the work of Miss Jane E. Hunter, its founder and active head. I once went an outlay in case of some $800,000, and furnish with wholesome surroundings for the working girl and for the girl who finds herself in a strange city without friends or home.
The project to establish similar homes in other cities was given shape by Mrs. Sallie W. Stewart, elected in 1928 to presidency of the National women's body funding the Phillis Wheatley to be just the sort of home for girls she had in mind, Miss Hunter was named as chairman of the Phillis Wheatley Department of the association and asked to assist in carrying out the plan.
Miss Hunter accepted and regional chairmen have been named follows: Southeastern district, Mrs. Emma Mosley; Central district, Miss Georgia Williams; Northwestern district, Mrs. Dolly
FOUNDED GIRLS' HOME
JANE E. HUNTER
Pares: Southwestern district, Mrs R. B. Sneed. The Northwestern district woman has not yet been named. State organizations have offered assistance and women have been appointed in the states to assist in establishing the department. Miss Hunter has sent out the following statement as to the movement:
"In every city and town there must and will be a Phillips Wheatley House A club house that shall be owned and operated by the local clubs that are members of the National Association of Colored Women. The purpose shall be to provide home facilities and helpful advice to girls, we must provide larger recreational opportunities. Mrs Callie W Stewart, our national president, has visualized this noble and far sighted project and has called to arms every women and specially the young women of America to rally until this project becomes a reality.
"For thirty-two years the women of the National Association have worked in and out of season and have made a supreme sacrifice to awaken a surprise the women of our race. Through their efforts much good has been accomplished
Mrs. Stewart is not asking that we withdraw our support from the already existing homes that are operated and controlled by other national organizations, but she is asking that the local club women in all of the States begin immediately to organize in the name of the national association, local club houses that shall be owned, controlled and operated by colored women of their respective com-
munities We also invite those clubs now in existence and not supported by a national body to become members of the National Association of Coloured Women. In a few cities there exists club houses or working girl's homes bearing the name of some greater pioneer Negro woman which needs the influence that would naturally come by association with this organization. It is our hope that through the National Headquarters a uniform educational program will be fostered for the best interest of all our local branches."

The first was that the General Education Board, after careful investigation of the institute and its activities, had appropriated $2,500 at its recent meeting, this sum to be used to pay one third of the expenses, for the erection of a badly needd girls' dormitory, and the balance to provide one half of the cost of a trades building for boys
The New York committee, recently organized in behalf of the institute, and now enlarging as an advisory committee, with John G Agar, directing it, has undertaken to raise the balance of the $60,000 needed to complete these buildings.

"Last year, while in college, I was studying unusually hard. I found that I was getting thin, and that my health was not very good. I felt tired and worn-out. Instead of my studies being a pleasure, they were a task. It was so trying not to be able to enjoy anything." I was a good tonic. I was a good tonic. I decided to take it. After taking Cardul, I felt so much better and stronger. I was able to join in all the school activities, and really enjoy them. I took three bottles in all, and gladly recommend it to other girls."
