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 Great Lake's will reconsider its action, with a probability that will be endorsed. It too as a significant fact that Great Lake's delegation in City will be headed by Maryann Louis B Anderson, Po- tenant Scott and Charlie have all close friends and sup- port Holstein. the association was the Morton Lodge, the local town and this little town, colored city officials, the mayor down, gave the bells a royal reception.

J—Senator Alexander Simpson, Democrat, of Hudson Co., flayed southern and other criticism of Mrs. Hoover, wife of the President, for having received Mrs. Oscar DePriest, wife of the Congressman from Chicago, at tea in the White House, in a resolution introduced in the New Jersey State Senate on Monday, June 21. The resolution read "We express our appreciation of the fine gentility and graciousness of the First Lady of the Land, evinced by her recently entertaining socially, at the White House, the wife of Congressman Oscar DePriest. "We depreciate the course criticism directed at this action by some of the members of Congress at Washington. We know that this high example set by the First Lady of the Land, will promote the growth of the modern American spirit, that bulwark against class hatred and class prejudice."

No. 55 is convulsing at home this week as a result of a fire in the five story tenement at 91 Allen street, on Friday morning June 21. Four women and six children were carried to safety through smoke-filled hauls and more than 200 occupants of the tenement and adjacent buildings were driven from their homes. Both Fireman Murphy and Lieutenant Williams were overcome by smoke, and the fireman passed away an hour after being taken to Belleville Hospital. After participating in the rescues, Lieutenant Williams joined his comrades in the thickest of smoke and remained with a helpline until he fell unconscious. Lieutenant Williams responded to the treatment by Dr. Harry Avery. Fire Department surgeon, and was able to go home a few hours later. He is the son of Chief James Williams, head of the Red Caps at the Grand Central Station and the only colored officer in the Department.

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. MAYOR WALKER SPEAKS AT P. S. 119 EXERCISES 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." MAYOR WALKER SPEAKS AT P. S. 119 EXERCISES High Tribute Is Paid Work Done In Harlem School By The Mayor Mayor James J. Walker was the principal speaker at the promotion exercises of Public School 119. Miss Anna E. Lawson, principal Wednesday, June 26. The Mayor began his address by stating that this was the first time since he had been head of the city government that he had attended a graduation (Continued on Second Page) 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.

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 SQB to be put up every month, the premises being made to Jacobsen & Jacobsen attorneys for the Monarch Lodge apartments inc owners of the property. 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 Casualties and Arrests.

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.

THE NEW YORK AGE 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.

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.

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.

The special: session of Congress called t, President Hoover to adopt legislation ialing with farm relief and reapportion- ‘ent, after wrestling with these prob- fms and evolvings acceptable plans to ‘get the situation, took a recess until the fddte of August. This work was not jeomplished without considerable argu- feat and debate and the expression of fer resentment by members of the two Suses against the executive, whose iews on legislation they had to meet, his stormy session Jed to some new ignments of the contending forces, ‘hich may indicate important changes in le"future relations of the two great par’ @, so long contending for control of ae government. For some time it has been apparent, tat notwithstanding the Republicans aye a party majority in the Senate, they Janot depend upon a majority yote for tany ,party measures, This 1s due to ne fact that a small but powerful group £ Republican Senators are too progress- rein their views to go along with their tactionary brethren. In this kicking yer of the party traces, this group of talcontents are aided and abetted by the Yemocratic minority, who are unable to yolve a policy of ther own, but are con- mt to oppose any measure that bears he regular Republican label, New lines of division have also become parent in the House of Representa- ives, although the Kepubhcan majority here is better trained and party measures wre passed without opposition under the ‘empulsion of the dominant Commuttee in “Rules.” Nevertheless, upon the ques- in of reapportionment, a serious break tas visible, which menaced Democratic iolidarity as well as that of the Repub- jean majority. This grew ouv of an imendment, under which it was proposed hhat aliens should be excluded in the ap- vortionment of members of Congress ac- Sefding 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 gounted as opposed to prohibition. Southern Democrats and Middle West: ern Republicans were united in support of this restriction of the power of the city districts, while the Tammany Demo- cats and Eastern Republicans were against it. As an offset to this attack én the power of the cities, their represent- atives hastened to support the propost- tion to reduce representation from the South by excluding from the census count the number af disfranchised Ne- groes. This proposition, which has been offered by a Massachusetts Congress- man at several previous sessions as the most effective way to secure the exercise of the franchise in the South, was adopt- ed as an’ amendment hy the combined votes of Republicans and Memocrats, among the latter heing 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 pmendments. With both these amendments tacked ento the bill, one excluding city aliens from the census count as a basis for rep- fesentation, 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 ins volved in either or both amendments was sacrificed ta expediency, Roth amend- ments were lopped off in committee, and he reapportionment hill was passed without any restriction on the census ount of Negroes or aliens. But the incident has shown that Con- ress 1s capable af dividing upon new ines, when the occasion demands. Iso hat Tammany representatives can no onger he counted upon to carry out the ‘POLITICAL CONFIDENCE GAME, A curious situation has arisen in the Twentyfirst Asembiy district of New York, which has resulted in what is term- ed dual leadership. This is essentially an éffort to evade the logical results of allowing the majority to rule and divid- ing the leadership on racial lines by seg- eegating the Negro voters on one side and the whites on the other, and dividing the leadersiip 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 Assistam State Attorney General, as the two leaders to represent the district, with a half ‘vote each. ee The point of the matter is, that it is universally conceded that the Negroes constitute eightyfive per cent. of the en- rolled 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 vot- ers of a district to choose the most repre- sentative member of their group as lead- er, 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 circum- stances is bound to be the controlling half. The question has been raised by ob: Jectors to this division of responsibility as to whether the law, will recognize a division of this sort, based wholly on rac- ial lines, The situation is without prece- dent in this state, or indeed in any other that we know, unless it can be comparec to the device of the white primary in the South, which is used to deprive the Ne- Bro voters of a voice in the choice of candidates. While this dual leadership seems to Lrob the majority voters of the district o| ostensibly only a half vote of the district, in reality it 1s intended to keep the rea leadership in the hands of Mr. Conklin, where it has been hed for a number o} years, more due td division among his opponents than to any strength of his own. If he 1s allowed to pose as one of the dual leaders of the district, it is easy enough to be seen that he will be recog: nized by the county chairman as the real cs despite the flimsy subterfuge o! a dual leadership. | That 1s why we cegard this clumsy at- ‘tempt to cheat the eighty-five per cent majority of the. district out of real con: trol of the leadership as a political con- fidence 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 pro- vision in connection avith its work in this city. The report of the board of direct- ors, of which Vernon M. Davis 4s chair- man, set forth this need as follows. New problems are constantly arising im 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 facilt tres for the care of these colored children in institutions cither for delinquency, de- pendency, or improper guardianship within the past thirty years, this despite the fact that New York City now has the largest colored population of any eity im the world, Again the directors would urae on ‘those who have at heart the community's welfare the need for further provisions of this kind, The nature and extent of the work car- nied on hy this society are shown by the fact that over three hundred thousand children have passed through the doors of its shelter diiring its filtyfour years of existence, The shelter 15 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 he- ing made for their future, After the cas- cs of their charges have been passed on by the Children's Cour, they are com- mitted to such institutions or private care as may be selected. It is in this particu- lar, that provision 1s lacking for the col- ored children, Abuse of children, neglect and improp- er guardianship are among the causes that brought more than thirtythree thou- sand little ones-to the notice of the so- ciety's agents last year, These charges were fed, clothed, nursed and doctored unit] they were restored to normal con- ditions 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 mm the directors’ report is the lack of ade- quate 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 he met by some roncerted method of relief. > PROHIBITION AND PROSPERITY, Major” Maurice Campbell, Prohibition Administrator of New York, has furnish ed the dry advocates a most effective TRE NEW YORK “ACE RAY THREE AND FOUR slogan ini linking prohibition with ~pros- perity, He asserted that prohibition ia the chief cause of the greatest era of pros: perity that this-country hag ever experi- enced. = 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 économic parallel between she years preceding the adoption of the Eighteenth amendment ‘and those follow- ing, statisticn avere-given to show that thé greatest buying power of the Ameri- gan people was due to the economic re- sults of prohibition. Taking the ‘average annual expendi- tures for alcoholic beverages, before pro- hibition as his starting point, Major Campbell said: “In the years 1914, 15 and 16, the average , yearly earned monies in the United States 1 Was $34,300,000,000, out of which was spent 1 $3,591,000,000 for liquor of 10 per cent of the national income, In 1928'the total earn- ed monies in these United States was the staggering figure of $81,000000,000, and. 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 2 year, would be the sum expended for liquor in the United States right now? “Make all the allowance you want for the purchase of. bootleg. liquor, gentlemen—it tan't as big as they- would have you think anyway. But mike a libera allowance and then deduct the remaining billions which, without prohibition, would have been spent in boore today, from your yearly sales rec- ords and you will agree that the bankruptcy courts would have the busiest period in their history. “In all fairness, you must admit that, be- _ cause of prohibition, our people have spent 2 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 doub- ling 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 produc: tion 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 appes signed by Thomas J. R. Faulkner an dated at Monrovia, December 6, 1928, i which he protests vigorously against th frauds which he declares were perpetra cd im the last presidential election ¢ Liberia. He ‘started off by asserting tha the “ponderous irregularities and fraud We have received a copy of an appeal signed by Thomas J. K. Faulkner and dated at Monrovia, December 6, 1928, in which he protests vigorously against the frauds which he declares were perpetrat- ed in the last presidential election of Liberia, He ‘started off by asserting that the “ponderous irregulariues 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 de- mocracy” and denounces the padding of the registration lists by writing down the names of fichtious persons. The situation as Mr. Faulkner finds it was described briefly as follows: A pad- ded registration, by which it was made to appear that instead of ten thousand voters, there were 250,000. more or Icss. Evidence of this rotten condition, but no court that would investigate and hear the evidence, on the ground of lack of juns- diction. A senatorsal election coming on, to be held under the same conditions. No newspaper press to give the-facts tothe public, because of intimidation of people and press by the present administration These are serious accusations to be brought against the government by a re- sponsible member of the community lake 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 engihcering 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 Li- beria, so it can be seen that he is not seeking foreign intervention. Tf the figures quoted by Mr. Faulkner are to be credited, it can be seen that the leaders of the Whig party, who are ac- cused 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 890 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, accord- ing to the returns. Mr. Faulkner asks. “Can you heat this calculation?"

During the World War a large number of Negro soldiers was sta- tioned at Camp Jackson at Colum- dia, as‘a result. of which the need for some home for delinquent girls became apparent. Governmental aid ‘was sought, which had to be’ accept" ed by fhe 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 beck’ 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 gov- ernmental appropriation was inisdi- rected, a school for delinquent col: ored girls was established by the South Caroiina_ Federation of Col- ored Women. Some thirty thousand dollars have been raised by this or- ganization in support of the institu- tion, They boast of about thirty acres of land and a very adequate brick building of three stortes.

Fin- ley went down to the Legislature hoping to obtain an appropriation from the state. v "Bishop Finley related: to the Legislature: the incident which took place in 1916 when all the money was given to the white girls’ indus- trial school, and pleaded thal 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 hurned and it seemed impossible for it to be rebuilt. but the Episcopal Church.through the efforts of Bish” op Finley, gave a piece of land about three miles from Columbia and gave contributions toward re- building it. The new Fairwold is a very adequate three'story brick tuilding, 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 Bish- ‘op Finley in behalf of thé 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 de- Tinquent white boys and girls, and for its delinquent Negro bays. Tt also seems strange that the judges of South Carolina courts should commit these girls to Fairwold. yet the state does nat provide for their upkeep. “The state soothes its. con- science, so to speak bv saying that it is, francially unable to estab- lish a school for colored kirls, and has discontinued the small annual contribution on the ground that tax money should not he used to up keep’ private, institutions.

ON THE SAYINGS OF ‘OTHER EDITORS ‘Being reminded that the Jast_gen- tral conference of the. Africas Methodist Episcopal Zion Chureh enacted a law granting equal lay and ministerial representation in that body, with the laymen having the right to initiate legislation, the Stor 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 tx the affairs and policies and aims of the Church? Are they indoctrinated inta the principles of Zion Meth: odism? Are they loyal in practice to. Zion Methodism? Are they. in formed. on the issues of the Zion Chureh? | Are our hymn books used in all our churches? Is our Sunday Schoo Literature used in all our Sunday Schools? Are the laity in general possession of our Discipline? De they subscribe to the church papers? Are. the delegates to the Annual Conferences, to the General Sonfer ences subscribers to the offal or gan of the denomination? Does the Taity ‘know from week to week the dig things and the little thifgs go ing on in Zion? Tf the laity know nothing of the church save in a focal way how car they be competent to vote intelli. gently on any matter that comes before the General Conference? * The Stor urges the need of an informed laity to enable the church to put over its program. Referring to an article on “Fair: wold,” written by Miss Louise Bu- ford. a student af Columbia College, which appeared inthe’ Columbia Record. the Palmetto Leader of Columbia said: ‘The article tells how, while tens of thousands of soldiers. were it Camp Jackson during the Worle War, it hecame necessary, to estab lish "an matitution for delinquent girls, For this, money was provided by the U.

Here just a few days ago, the col- fored 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 preval- cat. This Tow standard will con: tinue under such condition. How can we expect any. better standard witha 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 render efficient service under this condition. They might say they can and teach, but who loses? The child. With the new modern gebeds of ctegationalsnntars primary, grammar and high school, it is impossible for one or two. teachers to handle kindergarten to cighth grade. and if they say they can, they are more efficent than white: teachers. who know it 13 im: possible to teach correctly and rene der good service. , Eatontown Board of Education did the right thing to close the school, and the Board was wise to Stick by their rulmg 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 rut tal schools in this county. for ther are unnecessary burdens to the taxe payers of this county.

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.

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.

Calvary M. E. Church Services at Mt. Calvary were well attended all day. The Junior Church service was beautiful and inspiring. The Rev. Sebastian preached an inspiring sermon to the children. At 11 o'clock the pastor, Rev. E. W. Rakestraw, preached from the 5th chapter of Matthew, both verse, "Let your light so shine before you that they may see your good works and glorify your father which is in heaven." At its service the steward, of the church were installed and a special installation sermon was preached to them. It was impressive. The music under the direction of Leon Adger was soul stirring.

He is vice president at large of the New York Baptist State Convention, and a preacher of power. 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. WHERE TO GO TO CHURCH WHERE TO GO TO CHURCH 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 Junior Church services were conducted at 10:30 a.m. Dr. Brown preached Church school convened at 2 o'clock A 3 p.m. education services under the auspices of the New York Conference were held Bishop J.

WHITE 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. The small group of special guests included Mr. Bernard of the Musician, Courier Lucien H. White of the New York Age, James B. Low of "Uncle Tom's Cabin" fame, Carlo Anderson, author of the play, "Appearances", which recently closed a Broadway run, William H. Davies, American News, M. Gray Johnson, the artist painter of the prize-winning creation, "Swing Low, Sweet Charity", which brought him the Harrison Award in January, and families and friends of the singers. Following the program, through the courtesy of Miss Bernerdine Mason, contrataire, oone of Mr. Lamb's pupils, and Mr Lamb himself a delightful luncheon was served to all the guests, the menu including queen olives, stuffed olives, celery, chicken salad, saltines, all French ice cream and pastry, tea cakes, coffee, tea, after dinner menu, salted nuts, cigars. It was announced that on Thursday, 18th IR, the Musical Art Festival which functions weekly during the season at Mr Lamb's will be held in eighth annual closing at the Oakwood avenue, W. W. A. auditorium, at which time the Johnson prize winning actress 'Swing Low, Sweet Charl will be formally presented to the forum, which has bought the wes. The Forum program on this day will include dramatic trails in Frederick Douglas Hughes, the well known actor who wrote Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde seems from "Macbeth" and Philippe Members of the Forum, and Mr Lamb, will assist M. Hegan The Rev George M. Hegan of the Protestant Episcopal concern will introduce the art Reproduction of the painting reproduction of the painting to be given each person present, attributions will be served Joseph H. Douglass, Violinist, In Newark the cour of the 13th Avenue Fredrick Church Newark, N Rey L. B. Ellerson, pastor, section of Frederick Moss, in Mrs. Cora Wynn Alex at the organ, presented its sunday evening sacred con- firmation on June 23 at 8 p.m. with 11 Denglass violinists of given as the guest artist, addition was cilled with a berly an 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. MUSIC NOTES The third annual recital by pt anoforte pupils of Mime, Tempie Smith, whose studio is at 722 St Nicholas avenue, was held on Friday day evening, June 21, at St Mark's Hall, 57 West 138th street, with a large audience present. The pupils gave a good account of themselves, a little 3 1 2 year old Chinese girl Lillie Mike attracting particular attention. The program included 50 numbers by pupils, with one by Mime. Smith in response to a special request. 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. The annual service in memory of Robert Burns will be held Saturday afternoon, June 29 at the music stand on the Mall, Central Park, under auspices of the Robert Burns Memorial Association, Robert C Mild founder and secretary, John R W Smith, president, at 3:30 o'clock. A feature of the program will be the singing of the Robert Burns choristers of Haiti, under direction of Rudolph Grant, organist director on the Salem M. E Church choir. The musical program is under direction of the Gaelic Society of Musical Society of America, and will be broadcast from Station WNYC from 3 to 5 p.m. The Hall Johnson Negro Choir is making its last appearance for the season on Monday night, July 11, at Renaissance Ball Room, 138th street and seventh avenue, in a benefit performance for the New York City Federation of Women's Club Julia P. D. Coleman president. In addition to the usual program of Negro Spirituals, folk and work songs which are sung by Mr. Johnson's group with incomparable charm, there is to be a special of fering of a big Broadway attraction at midnight. There will be dawning at conclusion of the concert Miss Marionne Harris, soprano who has been studying with Odde done Sommervigo, is now a member of her choir at St. James Presbyterian Church, Dr. Melissa Charlton, organist director.

N C Miss Ruth Johnson, Los Angeles Cal 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."

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: If at first you don't succeed, How much schooling Rufus goe, but there is one sure thing: he As explained, Rufus, once Pullman thought he could do better at so fellows who believe in acting in later fidelity a rather hasty goodbye, which he expected his service sales but alas such is life. He disc months away from Pullman environ as said. 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. Now, knowing that this former comeback porters, he made applicable record he borne, it new encounter any difficulty in the man. But that was where he erred was one thing in particular which to upon, and he had been guilty of the service when it needed him most for the answer which followed man Green was informed, most courteous were that this employer had all the anyway. The average applicant would value and let the matter go at that single which he had crooned time and chasing rabbits in North Carr he was going to see if it had any now. Then began a regular flood of First, a letter stating his case, the answer to that referred to The next letter was to the official letter was the same. Again a letter Just about this time, fate interned rather suddenly. This likely be aware of all the circumstance Rufus wrote him. Again he over the persevering one failed to a supervisors, and that only one of our reply informing him that "no Now, that was enough to discover our friend Rufus. There was one more resort, fountain head of all Pullman active received was somewhat along these "Your application for be passed upon by the bus Rufus had really begun to think which "try, try again" was useless, or has occurred. 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. PULLMAN OFFERS Again the Pullman Company is age of acquiring stock in the corporate payments. Under this plan, the shares at a net outlay of $67.35 per an employee may subscribe for, how the following is part of the rules of employee may purchase: "An employee may subs one share for each $200 or of his annual rate of pay, wages for the three months to exceed a maximum of five The payment for the a stalements of $2 per share salary or wages of the sub According to this rule, porters the past year and composite may subscribe for five shares of the corporation which offers to corporated, and embraces the firm The Pullman Company, Chicago Corporation, Chicago, Illinois, Tex.; New Orleans Car Wash, Pullman Railroad Company speaking recently with "Gene" was considerable Pullman stock, and that it was a capital investment, a stock which is selling on and gradually soaring all the advantage of paying for it will more, "Gene" says, it's a great advantage to it, declares have acquired the stock, to do in the later event in the head office, and immediately the prospectus of the offered president, D. A. Crawford. well to give a word of warning he likely to prove interesting, unless it may be likened to a Birth Co. interested in the matter. If, however, agency, and all the other traits that reading may not prove so dull as concerns a person by the name of a man porter, and who most earnestly is this wish of the person with the same quite correct to explain that Rufus State, and there used to be a memorized before he learned to be this: "You don't succeed, try, try again." Schooling Rufus got before he left one sure thing; he learned that did Rufus, once Pullman porter, but better at something else. But he in acting instead of talking, he had goodly goodie, and left for another his service sales to net him better is life. He discovered that he had Pullman environment convinced one of those Sons of Ham who believed toward Pullman again. Making up Pullman berths, shining off without even a backward glance, were pretty hard lines at times. But it is lot every day. There were days of the Pullman service ledger. What this former employer was at the made application for reinstatement had borne, it never crossed his mind in the matter where he erred again. He didn't particular which this employer was guilty of that particular thing needed him most. Whether that which followed may only be surmised, most courteously, of course, the employer had all the porters it needed. Applicant would have taken that matter go at that. But not so with had crooned time after time while in North Carolina still remained if it had any virtue to it. A regular flood of correspondence stating his case, was sent to his office to that referred him back to the office to the official over this superintendent. Again a letter to the bureau was time, fate intervened. One of it suddenly. Thinking that his suit of all the circumstances of his case Again he overlooked the little one failed to reason that there that only one of them had died. Sung him that "no porters were need is enough to discourage a 49 gold one more resort. He would write all Pullman activities. This he drew what along these lines or application for reinstatement upon by the bureau at which you initially begin to think that there were again" was useless. But seemingly. The bureau is considering his application recently remarked to this reportents re-employment. Suite true, Green had a good rehearsal story of Rufus Green, persistent. 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.

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.

PHILLIS WHEATLEY HOME, CLEVELAND, TO BE TYPE FOR HOMES IN OTHER CITIES TEN GENERA PHILLIS WHEATLEY ASS Erected in Cleveland, Ohio 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." Baltimore, Md. By THOMAS B. BURKE. Baltimore, Md.-The Sun, our only morning paper and the Evening Sun, afternoon, both Democratic organs, are to be commended on the publicity they are now giving to the constructive work or Negroes. In a recent issue of The Sun, a group photograph was carried featuring John Robert Ward, Jr., son of a Negro laborer of Ironsides, Charles County, Md., and a graduate of Pomonkey High School, who was one of the eighteen candidates who took the examination at the Polytechnic Institute for the Edison "genius" scholarship. The examination was given by Oliver C. Shorts, state employment commissioner. Young Ward specialized as a body worker on automobiles. He said everyone he has taken apart has worked on being put together again. He expects to continue his studies at Morgan College in the fall. The Evening Sun of the same date gave nearly a column with the lead saying "Two hundred and four students of the Coppin Normal School and the Frederick Douglass Senior Junior High School will receive their diplomas from Mayor William F. Broening at the annual commencement exercises to be held Tuesday and Wednesday night in the school auditoriums." Miles W.
