Interdenominational Ministers In Strong Resolutions Condemn The Dual Leadership Proposition
Deem It Unwise To Take Any Separatist Measures Which Will Be Surely Misunderstood and Place Race More Firmly In Toils
Ministers of Harlem of the various churches comprising the Interdenominational Preachers' Meeting, were reported last week as being in opposition to the recently suggested dual leadership plan put into effect in the 21st A. D. by Republican Leader Robert S. Conklin, assisted by several of the Negro committeemen.
Prior to suspending their meeting for the summer the ministers took up the matter of dual leadership, and after a thorough and comprehensive discussion, decided to leave than if we yielded in this way, and that they will submit themselves with true sportsmanship to our political leadership and control if we make it clear that nothing short of that will satisfy us.
"(4) Also, we realize the truth of the statement that our own people are divided, and this keeps us from taking our rightful political control. We admit this with shame but we feel that this is the very challenge we need as a race to conquer our petty divisions, and prove that we will not always allow ourselves to be divided, and ruled by minority groups of other races. We ministers pledge ourselves to preach and practice united effort and to help overcome this handicap to our political slavery here in Harlem."
Officers of the organization are listed as follows: The Rev. Dr. A. C. Garner, president; the Rev. Dr. D. Ward, Nichols vice president; the Rev. Floors, Howard, secretary; the Rev. Dr. J. W. Brown, treasurer. Included in the body are ministers of practically all of the denominations in the city, except, perhaps, the Baptists, who have an organization of their own, the Baptist Ministers Conference.
A statement given to the press by Aaron Smith of the 21st A. D. on Monday, July 1, asserting that the Baptist Ministers' Conference at a meeting on that day, had unanimously approved the suggestion of dual leadership, following addresses by Mr Smith and by Hamilton T. Travis, president of the Appointor Republican Club in favor of the proposition.
Efforts to get in touch with representative ministers, members of that body, have not been successful most of the ministers approached seeming to have no knowledge of the alleged endorsement by reason of having been absent from the meeting Mr Smith claimed, however, that there were some 400 ministers present at the action was taken. Afterward he reduced his estimate to about 200, and finally he said that there was a full membership present.
In the typewritten statement issued by Mr Smith, containing some 450 or more words, he makes the assertion that about "279,000 Negroes reside in Harlem, including an alien resident population of 35,000 with a voting strength 54,000 distributed in five Assembly Districts (11th, 13th, 19th, 21st and 22nd) out a possible voting strength of 179,000. it was held that a Negro leader could influence great
Mrs. E. Hortense Warner, associate leader and member Republican State Committee, 21st Assembly District, approves the attitude of Alderman Fred R Moore, editor of The New York Age, in opposing the dual leadership proposition advanced by Robert S Conkling, executive member and leader of the 21st A D, in the following letter
"Dear Mr. Moore - Permit me on behalf of the many thousands of voters and residents of the 21st Assembly District to thank you and The New York Age for your upstanding and unrelenting attitude in the matter of the proposed jim crow and segregation measure offered the voters of our Assembly District under the pretext of 'Dual Leadership'
"This is a super that strikes at the vitals of our people, and which surpasses in its importance the personal anthologies of any individual set of individuals, and if allowed to go unchecked will be one of the greatest wrongs to which we ourselves as covered people have subscribed since the days of Reconstruction"
"Again let me say that the voters and residents of our district express their appreciation to you for your interest in so vital a matter."
gro committeemen.
Prior to suspending their meeting for the summer the ministers took up the matter of dual leadership, and after a thorough and comprehensive discussion, decided to leave the matter of preparing a set of resolutions defining their position in the hands of the executive committee, which would serve as a commung body of which the Rev. J. W Robinson, pastor of St. Mark's M. E. Church, is chairman. In his absence, the chairman's seat is occupied by the Rev. M. C. Strachan, Second Seventh Day Adventist Church, acting chairman. The executive committee took the matter under consideration, and a set of resolutions were drawn up the Rev William Lloyd Imes, pastor of St. James Presbyterian Church, who passed them on to Acting Chairman Strachan for submission to the executive committee. "In relasing these resolutions for publication," Dr. Strachan theobothes that they express the unanimous sentiment of his committee, and that not one resolution was raised in dissent as to their content. Under the caption:
RESOLUTION
"Regarding the Proposed Dual System of Leadership for the 21st Assembly District, N. Y. City, to give the Negro Element Representation on County Republican Committee," the resolutions set forth as follows Wherecas, on Wednesday, June 10th, 1929, the Interdenominational Preachers' Meeting of New York City and Victimity sat in a special adjourned session of their meeting, order to hear the proponents and opponents of the so-called "dual leadership" plan for the 21st Assembly district, N. Y City, whereby a certain geographical portion of the district which contains large majority of colored earliness and the majority of white people are to be found would be under white leadership, thus dividing one district for practical purposes of getting racial representation, the Meeting desires to go on record as follows
A "Next Best Plan."
(1) That we in no way impugn the motives of those who propose such a change of plan from the regular district plan, nor do we feel that they lack in real racial self respect or pride. They doubtless have, as we have known especially of the Appomattox Club, done many useful and most sacrirical political services to our people for which we are neither unmindful nor ungrateful. We also want to state that while we cannot know them in all their contention, that such a dual plan would really secure to our people the measure of our interests of the voters of any district should possess, we certainly admire their courage in taking what seems best as a "next best" plan.
(2) However, in view of the recommendation that was given to this dual plan on Monday evening, June 17th by the assembled leaders of the district above named, and having given much thought and consideration to this important matter, and recognizing that our ministers of this district are regarded as leaders and advisers of our congregations and others who come under our influence, and others who come under our nikhlowing that 85 per cent or more of the population of this district is plainly colored, and so should therefore be urged to take the regular leadership of the district without a division of power from it unwise to take any separatist measures of this sore, which would be most surely misunderstood by the enemies of our race. We place us all the more securely upon their power.
A Constructive Measure.
And further as a con-
tinent measure, we urge our po-
ler leaders to take the harder
and longer method, namely, to fight
the colored control of this said
treat in the regular way, know-
that our white brothers and
will respect us, far more

WILLIAM C. GRAHAM.
Only Race Boy in class of 430 graduating from Trenton High
Graduates From Trenton High School As Only Negro Boy In Class
Graduates From Trenton High School As Only Negro Boy In Class
I. Trenton. N. J.—William C. Graham, seventeen year old son of Mr. and Mrs. David G. Graham of Bellevue avenue, was the only race boy in a class of 430 that was graduated from the I. Trenton High last Tuesday evening. He has shown remarkable aptitude in Spanish and mathematics. Aside from his studies Graham devotes a great deal of time to athletics having won the coveted school "TT" as a member of the track team. He was a sure point winner for high school in the 440 and 220 yard dashes. He also clinched a birth on the relay quartet. Last winter as a member of the Rex Basketball Club he scored more than one-third of the points made by the team. He has been active in "V" and church work and represented these organizations at the State Older Boys Conference and Sundays School Convention. Graham will enter Lincoln University in September where he will study for an A.B. degree and will major in mathematics. His young sister Lillian is a student at Coppin Normal, Baltimore Md.
N. Y. TEACHERS URGE EQUALITY FOR BOTH RACES Ask National Body For Equal School Facilities, Pay, For All
Chicago, IL State within the resolutions committee of the American Federation of Teachers assembled in thirteenth annual convention, was foreseen today as the outcome of resolutions prepared by the New York delegation urging equality for white and Negro pupils and teachers.
Predicts Modifications
Dr. Abraham Lekowitz on New York, national vice president, predicted that drastic modifications would be made in some of these resolutions offered by New York Local 5 before they would get to the convention floor.
Declaring that "Negro children and Negro teachers are the victim of gross discrimination in various parts of the American public school system" one set of resolutions urges immediate abolition of Jim Crow schools, equal school facilities for Negroes and whites equal expenditures for each child in American schools irrespective of race or color or equal pay for Negro and white teachers doing the same grade of work and selection and promotion of teachers on an equal basis irrespective of race or color.
Seeks Unionization
Another resolution seeks to place the teachers' federation index in a special campaign to unamaze Negro teachers and to resolve that the Negro and white teachers be organized in the same locals.
Dr. Leikowitz said it was not the desire of the New York local to attempt a program that would receive in exchange permission of the counter that have just cried out they desire in the main to organize the Negro teachers into teachers unions, he said. It is his belief that the resolutions will be considerably modified by the resolutions committee.
NEW YORK, N. Y., SATURDAY, JULY 6, 1929
With but nine persons present, an attempt to have the New York State Association, I. B. P. O. E. of W., endorse J. Finley Wilson for reelection as grand exalted ruler, at the meeting of the State Association, held in Saratoga Springs, last week, was foiled, through interference of members from Monarch Lodge No. 45
Lincoln University Wins $500,000 Endowment By Raising $250,000 In Cash and Subscriptions Ere July
Lincoln University, Pa. President W. H. Johnson announced that the endowment campaign for $500,000, in which the university has been engaged for the past two years, has been successfully completed by securing $250,000 in cash and subscriptions, and thus meeting the conditions of the General Education Board, New York, who offered an equal amount if the campaign was completed before July 1, 1929
The session, the second one of the New York State Association, was a fizzle, with not more than 33 delegates being present, and the status of many of them was in doubt. It was held in Convention Hall in the resort city, a hall with a capacity of 7000
Finley Wilson Present
Samuel B. Mitchell, president of New York State Association called the meeting to order at noon on June 24, but he soon relinquished the gavel to the grand exalted ruler, who was conveniently present. Almost immediately the endorsement was sought. After the first attempt, Mr Wilson ruled that, notwithstanding Section 2, Article 18, of the Grand Lodge Law, prohibiting state association endorsements, he had the right to grant a dispensation so to do, and accordingly he declared in him as the grand exalted ruler given the association permission to endorse. By permission to 19 of 19 to the handful present, purporting to represent the State of New York, with a representation of 20,000 members, voted an endorsement to Mr. Wilson
New Officers Elected
Because of the severe criticism of the previous administration, an entirely new state of officers were elected, among them being Simeon D. Dalton of New Rochelle, president, Emanuel Brussard of Jamaica secretary, and Chester Johnson of Sparkhill, treasurer. Practically every one of the big lodges in New York State refused to send delegates or to have anything to do with this year's session, and the predecessor had demonstrated a lack of program and the knowledge that it would be a thoroughly controlled Wilson meeting. As a consequence the entire session was a joke and the parade a sad affair.
Holstein Gaining Strength.
At the headquarters of Casper Holstein, New York candidate for grand exalted ruler at the coming grand lodge session scheduled to be field in Atlantic City, the endorsement forced through by Mr. Wilson was ridiculed and said to mean absolutely nothing. Claims were made that the wealthy New Yorker, who has declared that if elected, he will accept no salary for serving the office, nor ask for

Alumpi Holped Greatly
The trustees and officers of the university have conducted this campaign without the aid of a commercial agency, but have been greatly assisted by the splendid work of the Alumni Association under
any expenses from the lodges throughout the country that he may be called upon to visit, nor demand fees from the various state associations for his presence at their sessions, is rapidly gaining strength throughout the country. So much so, that the expected rough-riding of the famous Wilson steam roller holds no fears for the opposition. Congressman Oscar Dr. Priest, a life-long friend of Mr. Holstein, who will be a delegate from Fort Berlin lodge of Chicago, is said to have been instructed to place Holstein's name before the convention, a privilege which the Holstein managers contemplate, granting with thanks
Henry Warner Endorsed.
An amusing incident of the New York State session was the endorsing of Henry S. Warner of Imperial Lodge, New York City, for the office of grand treasurer, au, endorsement obtained while the grand exalted ruler was presiding. All though previously pledged to several other men in different parts of the country for that office now held by James Martin of Chicago, Mr Wilson promised Warner to do all that he could for him to win. When asked his opinion of the meeting, Casper Holstein said, "In order to perpetuate himself in office, Mr Wilson has visited almost every state association meeting throughout the country where he has sought endorsements. Now that the funds of the grand lodge are low and knowing that committees cannot be paid this year as heretofore, he has now resorted to promising jobs, "Ellen determined to see the dawn of a new day. The old order of things must change and the rule of ruin method must be stopped. After Mr Wilson's arbitrals, ruling at the Saratoga meeting he remarked to several delegates, this is only a fore runner of what you will get at Atlantic City. This is the spirit of the mar who is now resorting to every possible method to succeed himself for the eighth time.

The Alumni have subscribed directly about $2,000, more than the quota they accepted, in addition to their help in influential quarters in secreting some of the largest sub-quarters. The General Board will pay into the university amounts equal to the cash that is received A large amount of the total has already been paid.
Lynching Record For First 6 Months 1929
Tuskegee Institute, Ala. —The semiannual report on the lynching record in the United States issued by Dr. R. R. Moton, principal of this school, shows that for the six months ending June 30, 1929, there have been four lynchings, the victims being one write man and three Negroes. Two were charged with rape, one with killing a plantation owner, and one for resisting officers of the law after failure to remove rubbish from front of store.
The lynchings occurred, two in Florida, one in Mississippi, and one in Tennessee.
This represents the smallest number of mob crimes for a similar period since 1921, when there were 36 lynchings. There were 30 in 1922, 15 in 1923, each in 1924, 1928, and each in 1925, 1926 and 1927.
JAMES A. SIBLEY DIES IN LIBERIA OF YELLOW FEVER Educational Advisor To African Republic For Phelps-Stokes Fund
James L. Sibley, educational adviser to the Republic of Liberia, died Friday, June 29, from yellow fever
A radiogram from President King was received by the Phelps-Stokes Fund, 101 Park avenue, which read
"Please accept my deep sympathy on the death of Dr. J. L. Sibley. In his loss Liberia loses a sincere and devoted friend"
First knowledge in this country of Dr Sibley's illness was when Dr Thomas Jesse Jones, educational director of the Phelps-Stokes Fund, heard from Miss Rebecca Davis, supervisor of Jeanes Fund Schools in Lubera, by radio a few hours before his passing.
Had New School Program
Dr Sibley prominently figured in the new educational programs for the native youth. This year he introduced into the schools a primer, first, second and third readers, and a geography with African pictures in colors. Dr Sibley was born in Georgia and graduated from the University of Georgia. At one time he served as supervisor of Negro Education in Alabama. Four years ago he went to Liberia as representative of the American Advisory Commission in Liberia, composed of mission boards, colonization societies and educational organizations. Later he was named educational adviser for the Republic. He was 45 years old and is survived by parents, Mr. Jeffrey John, Sibley of Miami Beach, Fla.* The remains were intered in Liberia. The Phelips-Stokes Fund, through Dr Anson Phelips-Stokes, President, sent the following message to Miss Davis: "Extend deepest sympathy to Government, missions and associates in death of Sibley. He was great educational leader and man of strong Christian character. Hope and believe his friends will unite to carry out his farsighted plan for Lubera."
Colored Hero Fights Off Three White Men And Saves Two Girls
Special To The New York Age
Sioux City, Iowa—Nine years ago the wife of David Tapeley, colored, 30, employed at the Cudahy Packing plant, was murdered by a colored friend. On Wednesday, June 26, Tapeley went to the rescue of two white girls being assaulted by three whitehoodlums. In the eneuing battle, Tapeley was beaten, but he used a knife to cut such vigor that the hoodlums flew out. The couple so badly cut that he died on Friday morning. The other two are under arrest at Ponca City, Neb., and are facing long terms in prison for attempted criminal assault. Tapeley had Wednesday off and was spending the day fishing at a lonely spot in the Missouri River. Suddenly he heard cries of two girls who had been lured into the woods by three men and were being badly manued. He ran to their rescue and dispathe the odds of three to one Tapeley, said the girls in the terrific battle. A coroner is enorginated Tapeley and he went back to his job at the Cudahy plant Friday. Already there is a movement under way to raise a fund to hit the mortgage on his little home.

BROOKLYN WANTS RACE DOCTOR ON HOSPITAL STAFFS
In a petition signed by the heads of various Negro organizations, fraternal orders and church congregations, presented by the President Medical and Dental Society of Brooklyn, Dr William Schroeder Jr Hospital Commissioner, has been asked that Negro physicians, nurses and other professional people of the race be accorded representation in Brooklyn's public hospitals
Denied Opportunity
* The Provident Medical and Dental Society of 746 Fulton street, Brooklyn of which Dr. Walter W. Beckinan is the head, in a letter accompanying the petition, said
"The 65,000 Negroes of Brooklyn are treated in the main by Negro physicians when ill. We are denied the opportunity for scientific advancement in practice and medical contact in the medical hospitals in the city of Brooklyn. Ten per cent of the cases of certain kinds treated at Cumberland and Kings County hospitals are colored people few to municipal hospitals now because of their fear of lack of sympathetic treatment.
"We ask for a representative in the pediatric department, the tuberculosis department, two adjutant assistants in the indoor service, one assistant in the proctology clinic in the Cumberland Hospital, one assistant in graduate nursing schools, equal consideration of qualified Negro graduates in medicine for appointment to the interior staffs of Kings County and Cumberland Street hospitals."
Ask For Nurses Too
The petition also asks consideration to those of our young women who show character and meet the requirements for appointment to the nurses' training school in these hospitals and representation in the lay boards. "For the lay boards the society asks the petitioners and that Negro inmates are named. Reprinted by Elke Masons andators of several churches have signed the petition. Dr. William Schroeder Hospital Commissioner, said Monday night that he is giving the matter his careful consideration.

- Named for appointment as a West Point cadet by Congressman Oscar DePriest, Parham is the first Negro cadet to enter West Point since 1918. There have been twenty-one others named for a cadetship, but only three have finished the four years course
Takes Oath of Service
With the superintendent of the Academy, Gen. William R. Smith, standing in front of them on the green parade ground, Parham and 348 other fledgling cadets were given the oath by Chief Clerk Isaac Boyle, pledging allegiance to the flag which floated in the summer breeze, to serve four years at West Point and then to give at least four years to the regular army service after graduation as an officer. Parham is one of the finest physical specimens in the entering class with three high scholastic attainments. There are 16 signs of discrimination. The Negro hat was assigned to a single room that has a stone floor, gray painted walls, a single gray cot, a table, a locker and a waist-stand. There are no adornments and the young cadet is only permitted to display a photograph of his mother or sweet cart on the top shell of his locker.
Starts Drilling
As soon as the cadets were uniformed in their "beast skins" gray flannel trousers and shirts following the regulation bath and haircut, they were assigned to squads and drilled Onlookers watching the cadets drill were impressed with the tatt that the officers are against discrimination and that reports touching on the matter have been based largely on conjecture.
It is estimated that the four years at West Point costs the government $19,989 for each cadet. There is an allowance of $1,072 a year for the cadets but they do not handle a cent of it during their four years' course. It is deposited monthly with the treasurer and is used to defray incidental expenses. Sometimes a cadet has some of this allowance left over at graduation. Parham will be treated in exactly the same manner as the white members of the class Colonel S C. Richardson, commandant of the academy, said.
"There will be no discrimination or any description against Parham" the colonel said. Parham has been assigned to the 2d Company, the section being made on a basis of height, according to the colonel. He was one of several assigned to a single room, but this assignment was made in accordance with the regular system followed at the academy, the colonel said.

Those members and officers who cannot perform the duties assigned them must step aside to let the work go on" "Striking tribute was paid to the trustees who had made the financing possible, by personally going on the notes of the grand lodge to assure the proper credit for the organization The meating adjourned at seven o'clock until the annual communication in December

Virginius B. Horton Died Sunday Morning
Virginius B. Horton, a native of Charleston, S. C., but a resident of New York for many years, died Sunday morning, June 30, at 7 o'clock, after being confined at home for a week. A sudden sinking on Saturday evening led to the calling of an ambulance from St. Luke's Hospital, to which he was removed about midnight, dying a few hours later.
Mr. Horton, in his earlier days, was engaged in hotel work, but for the past ten years he had been employed on house and brokerage firms. He was single, never having married, and lived with relatives by marriage on Sevaenue near 140th street.
He was quiet and reticent in his manner, and even his closest friends did not know how seriously ill he was until the last days. Of fine character and possessed of sterling qualities, he cared little for general society, but spent most of his leisure time attending high class concerts and art exhibitions. He was not a member of any particular church, but attended regularly Sunday morning services at the Community Church, St. George's P. E. Church, the Caund, in recent months, the St. thehedral of St. John the Divine, Jamaica Pentecost Church. He had been a member of the Hotel Bellmen's Beneficial Association since 1910, serving in various official capacities.
His mother, who had always been with him, did two and a half years ago. Funeral arrangements were taken care of by J. C. Denham; who had been an intimate friend during most of his stay in New York, and who was with him at his death. W. C. Perry, undertaker, had charge of the funeral, which was held on Wednesday afternoon at 2 o'clock from the Perry Funeral Parlors, 248 West 132 streecte, the Rev. Floarda Howard officiating. Interment was in Woodland Cemetery, where his mother was buried.
Children's Room At Library Open Daily

The 135th street library is now exhibiting the oil paintings of J. H. D. Robinson in the Division of Negro Literature and History until July 15. Mr. Robinson is a native of Jamestown, N. Y., but now resides in Harlem. He studied at the Brooklyn School of Art for three months during 1927. He is principally self-taught. Mr. Robinson's color sense is strikingly individual and refreshing.
Popular Y. W. Official Returns From Vacation
Mrs Odessa W Donnelly, one or the information secretaries at the West 137th street Y. W. C. A. returned to her duties on Monday, July 1, after a month's vacation, most of which was spent with her mother in Indianapolis.

Federation of Labor Head Declares His Organization Is Committed To The Brotherhood In Its Struggle
Sleeping Car Porters and Large Audience Of Sympathizers Are Addressed By Wm. Green, President of A. F. of L., Last Sunday That the American Federation of Labor is committed absolutely to the cause of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters was told to a large assemblage of Harlemites on Sunday afternoon, June 30, by William Green, president, who came to Abyssinian Baptist Church at that time to make the first of a series of speeches in interest of the porters' organization which has recently been granted a char-
Mr. Green declared that the heart of the great labor organization is beating in sympathy with that of the colored workers; that his personal appearance in this meeting in behalf of the Brotherhood ought be sufficient answer to all the carping-critics who are at tempting to impugn the Federation attitude toward Negro labor.
Scored "Mischief Makers."
The labor head scored what he termed a "small group of mischief makers" who are being actuated by greed and dishonesty to make trouble in the ranks of labor. With their emphaisms, Mr. Green declared that the basic foundation of the A. of L incorporated into its construction since 1803 provides for the elimination of all barriers based on race color creed or nationality. And this principle he asserted has been incorporated into the rules governing 100 of the labor unions which owe allegiance to the A. of L.
Present in the audience were several members of an antagonistic group known as left wing workers who are alleged to be allied with the Communist elements. In charge the Trade Union educational League, and attempts were made by some of these men to scab both Mr. Green and A. Phillip Randolph, president and general organizer of the Brotherhood, but were met with slight success.
Attempts at Heckling
During the course of his speech introducing Mr. Green, Mr. Ranph was interrupted by a request that he ask Mr. Green as to certain policies of the A. F. of L. by the Brotherhood head refused the disturbed, and simply interrupted his remarks long enough to suggest that the meeting was being held for a specific purpose, with a private program, and that it would be encouraged during Mr. Green's ad campaign. Alexander, an organizer of the Union Educational League and Harold Wills, a source answers to Williams asked at the speaker Alex. Alexander wanted to know how many Negro institutions had been taken into the A. F. of L. and Williams asked as to what Mr. Green opposed "letting"
The latter inquiry was ignored, to the first questioner, Mr. Pierce said with dignified emphasis Mr. Pearce or I am here talking to it or will bring evidence that they are not facts, I will dis- matter with you right down to the ground" Alexander asked no more questions. But the Williams' query brought affections of the Brotherhood and of the church to his seat, who warned that a repetition of the inter- nation would mean his ejection from the church. So Williams rea- ded quiet also.

But when, at conclusion of Mr Green's speech, the audience arose for the final song and benediction, the "left wing" group remained definitely glued to their seats, not even showing proper reverence or respect when the Rev Dr William Lloyd Imes pronounced the benediction. These interruptions, however, did not fake Mr Green. He paid slight attention to them, but quietly and forcefully continued to drive home to his hearers the fact that the Brotherhood, in its fight for stabilized wages, shorter hours and better working conditions, was being supported to the uttermost resources of the great labor organization of whiskey, he is the head.
The only poison recognition made by him was when he said that it was great exhibitions that hinder the great work the A. F. of L is striving to do. Then he read from a printed list the names of cores or affiliated unions which freely admit colored members. He declared further that each union has a certain liberty or action which cannot be controlled by the parent body; many fam. theses are carried two rebel against the parents was ex. But, said he in such cases, when colored workers are barred from some particular union the A. F. of L takes them into the organization as separate unions.
Company Reaps Benefit
The porters are often offering a great injustice. If service rendered to a patron is of such superior merit as to cause that patron to want to award the servitor, then that reward should benefit the servitor, not the company. Mr. Green "But in the case of the porter on Pullman cars, it is the company that gets the greatest benefit from the tips given."

The Rev. Dr. A. Clayton Powell, pastor of Abyssinian Baptist Church, was master of ceremonies, and he introduced the Rev. Dr William P. Hayes pastor of Mt Olivet Baptist Church, to deliver the invocation. Following the singing of the "Negro National Anthem" by the entire audience, Dr. Powell spoke briefly and then introduced Miss Beatrice McMillan, soprano who sang "Open the gates of the Temple," giving a fine rendition.
The Rev Dr. Ims, pastor of St James Presbyterian Church was next introduced and he spoke eloquently for ten minutes in behalf of the fight being made by the Brotherhood. He emphasized the fact that the A. F. of L. should be guided spiritually as well as economically in its attempt to aid the colored workers
Liberal Offering By Audience.
C Carroll Clark, baritone, sang a group which included the "Largo" by Handel, and "Swing low, sweet chariot" with Miss Helyne Jones, social worker at Rendall Memorial Presbyterian Church, at the piano. Mr. Clark's singing was greatly appreciated by the large audience Then Dr Powell announced the taking of an offering for the Brotherhood to meet expenses of the meeting and the audience put more than $150 in the collection plates which were passed by the church ushers, assisted by a number of ladies belonging to the Brotherhood Auxiliary.
Miss Agnes Thorpe of Ports mouth, Va., and Englewood N J sang "I passed by your window" and a Negro Spiritual. "Nobody knows the trouble I see," with Miss Jones at piano, displaying a voice of sweetness and fine fure Dr Powell the introduced Mr Randolph, who was programmed to introduce the speaker of the afternoon
In performing this task, Mr Randolph told something of the organization of the Brotherhood, its fight for recognition, and its ultimate reception into membership of the A F of L. He paid tribute to the keen interest exhibited by President Green and declared that not only had the Brotherhood been granted its charter but that President Green had waived the customary initiation fees which would have amounted to SS 0000. President Green, was given a great ovation being greeted by the entire audience, to which feet applauding vigorously, and a plause was given even more venerously at conclusion of his speech. Dr. Powell emphasized the feeling of the audience by declaring that Mr Green's presence was "a bene doctor."

FIGHT FOR LEADERSHIP.
The fight for leadership is on in the neteenth Assembly district, with the sent leader straining every nerve and liting to make any possible deal to ren his place as Assemblyman and district leader. Singularly enough, the county Chairman is said to be back of assemblyman Grenthal in his effort to turn to the Assembly, where he is a member of the Committee on Rules. While Mr. Grenthal is an able and active risistor, it is hardly sufficient reason force him upon an unwilling constituency, because he can serve the interests the County Chairman on the Rules committee.
The Negroes have a majority of the enrolled voters of the Nineteenth district and they can retain or reject Mr. Grenal as their leader, as they may decide, true, he may draw upon the patronage yielded by the County Chairman to instance voters in his behalf, or he may seek to intimidate his opponents byreats of removal from such positions as they may hold. He may bargain with other aspirants for political place by offering the nomination for Alderman as a award for his pretensions. In all these forts to disarm opposition and command support, he may invoke the powerful aid of the County Chairman, who ends him useful as a member of the rules Committee.
On the other hand the Negroes of the district have the opportunity to set up leadership of their own by electing a clean and capable member of their group as executive member and leader of the district. Ninety per cent of the residents of the district belong to this group, and they are not now entitled to effective and articulate leadership of their own making, they never will be. But in order to achieve it, they must put aside the landishments of those spineless members of the race, who see personal security in keeping the present leader in the middle and fear the possible results of a change.
The enrolled Republicans of the district should support Colonel Fillmore for the leadership and secure him the vote if every election district captain and member of the Republican County Committee for his candidacy.

AN UNEXPECTED CHAMPION.
AN UNEXPECTED CHAMPION.
When a Democratic daily newspaper in Mississippi espouses the cause of Negro Republicans and suggests that they not receiving fairplay from a Republican President, it savors of the unexpected champion entering the lists as a defender of the innocent. This was the situation created by a recent editorial published in the Jackson Daily News, based on the report that President Hoover had banished the regular Republican party organizations in Mississippi, South Carolina and Georgia, "because of recent exposures in connection with recommendations for the distribution of federal patronage."
When a Democratic daily newspaper in Mississippi espouses the cause of Newro Republicans and suggests that they are not receiving fairplay from a Republican President, it savors of the unexpected champion entering the lists as a defender of the innocent. This was the situation created by a recent editoria published in the Jackson Daily News
What ruled the News most was the initiation that white leaders will be recognized by the administration hereafter, which it took to mean, that Lamont Rowlands and his followers would supplant Perry Howard and S. D. Redmond in Mississippi. While the displacement of these Negro leaders was dismissed as of no great importance, the editor of the News remarked that a sense of fairplay ought to suggest that they at least be given a fair and impartial trial on the evidence against them before such summary action is taken. It was recalled that a jury of white Democrats acquitted these defendants, after all the resources of the federal government had been exhausted in an effort to convict them. The grim paradox was enunciated that, "as justice is interpreted in the courts of Mississippi, even a Negro Republican politician is entitled to a square deal."
All this is very interesting to a Northern reader, who has no sympathy with the attempt of the administration to make scapegoats of black Republicans in Mississippi, while allowing the white Republicans of Texas, Florida and Virginia to get away uncathed with similar practice. But it also shows
the reluctance of the white Democrats in Mississippi to permit division in their own ranks. They would ostensibly keep the Republican party a black and tan organization rather than allow the formation of a white Republican party. Governor Bilbo was quoted as saying as much, when he commented upon the situation as follows: "As between the black-and-tan organization that has been in power, and the leaders whom Mr. Hoover will probably select, I prefer the Negroes."
While the means adopted to create division in the South are not to be admired, the reaction among white Democrats shows that they are producing an effect, the extent of which can only be measured by the violence of the reaction.
BISHOP BROWN'S CONVERSION.
That is a remarkable confession made by a former bishop of the Protestant Episcopal Church in America, which is reproduced in The Age this week, commenting on what he calls the DePriest incident. The bishop involved is the former Right Reverend William M. Brown, once bishop of Arkansas, until his episcopal brethren took issue with his expressions of doubt as to certain doctrinal points, tried him on the charge of heresy and deposed him from his ecclesiastical throne, thereby depriving him of his alb and miter. But since his deposition from the bishopric the quondam bishop has shown himself a more earnest advocate of the real truths of Christianity than when he presided over a diocese.
This he admitted in the first paragraph of his letter, in which he confessed to "having shared the utterly un-Christian views of the distressed aristocrats, who are now attacking Mrs. Hoover." He therefore did not denounce the offenders, but sought to analyze their outbursts, as an illustration of the "dire ignorance and cruelty of America's white terror." Bishop Brown went further than most defenders of the President and his wife, by sweeping aside the plea that no issue of social equality was involved in the incident, saying that even if such an issue were involved the protest would not be more defensible. He held that the situation would be quite as bad, if at were held that the President's wife might not unofficially invite a Negro woman to a luncheon.
Bishop Brown emphatically declared that if the Christian churches had been in the slightest degree interested in the teachings of Jesus, as they are set down in the New Testament, their members could not possibly make such race distinctions and encourage one race stupidly trying to keep another race in subjection. He indicted the church as guilty of accepting this "savagery" as being in every way compatible with Christian culture. He granted that he was a "savage" himself, while he was bishop of Arkansas, as many of the colored priests who labored in that territory will agree. He believed that "anyone who did not have the same pigment in his blood that we white folks had, should be regarded as inferior to us, condemned for life to do our work and denied the cultural opportunities to which we, by virtue of those sacred white pigments were logically entitled."
The former bishop attributes his conversion to a real knowledge of Christ to Karl Marx, an atheist. Where the church had pandered to his prejudices in the matter of a belief in race superiority, Marx showed him that the great struggle for human liberty made it necessary for him to abandon those prejudices. He declared that until these savage prejudices are allayed, there is little hope for human advancement. While he cannot see anything noble about the action of the Hoovers in this matter, he pronounced it simply sane, and added pertinently, "Sanity is America's greatest need." The alternative course that might have been adopted, of inviting all the other wives of Illinois Congressmen and excepting Mrs. DePriest, would have been "a gratitious insult."
Bishop Brown may have lacked in his respect for the doctrinal beliefs of his church, but he appears to have substituted in their place a practical belief in the practices of the founder of the Christian faith, which makes him a finer exponent of Christian doctrine than when he was Bishop of Arkansas. His sanity is attested by the candid manner in which he relates his conversion. It is too bad that such a bishop should have, to be deposed, in order to make a good Christian out of him. With his present attitude toward racial intolerance. Bishop Brown would prove a highly useful member of the Episcopal hierarchy, giving a leaven of sanity to churchly indifference on this vital question.
WHITE REVOLT IN VIRGINIA
The harm that is bound to ensue from the oligarchical form of government consequent upon the suppression of the suffrage in the South, is now apparent in
THE NEW YORK AGE
the present political campaign in Virginia for the election of Governor and other state officers. The increase of taxation has grown immensely during the past eight years and greater economy and more representative government are demanded. The split that took place among the Democrats last year threatens to continue, with the white Republicans aiding to support a coalition ticket.
The conditions that prevail in Virginia were set forth by Col. Henry W. Anderson, the leader of the Lilywhite Republicans, in an address made before the Republican State Convention. He said Virginia is dominated by a political oligarchy and its people are living under a constitution never submitted to popular vote. While the normal white vote is estimated at 720,000, the largest vote cast since 1902 was 305,000 in 1928, the last presidential election. The state-supported primary is limited to Democrats,—white Democrats, until the Federal courts decided that a Negro Democrat was entitled to vote in it.
The fifty thousand Democrats connected with the state and county governments practically control the primary and decide all questions of politics. Poll taxes are levied but not collected, in order to keep the number of voters within limits that can be easily handled. Election boards are appointed by local judges, who are elected by the legislature. Charges of fraud come before the judges who appoint the boards and no appeal is allowed to the higher courts. As a consequence, the state is controlled by the Democratic machine, which is enabled to perpetuate itself in power by its control of the primary and the restricted number of voters.
The coalition of anti-Smith Democrats and white Republicans is designed to put this oligarchy. The Negro Republicans have not been invited to join the movement, though some of them are voters. Their votes may be in demand later.
NEW PULLMAN PESIDENT.
The election of Mr. David A. Crawford as president of the Pullman Company and of Pullman Incorporated, the holding corporation of the Pullman system, which took place in New York, two months ago, marks another period of growth in passenger transportation. During the past seventy years the Pullman organization has known but five executive heads, a record of unusual significance for a concern of such magnitude. Most of these heads have risen through the ranks of the service of transportation and its allied industries. Born in St. Louis and educated in Alabama, the present head has had a thorough business training for his new post.
The personality of the head of the Pullman organization has more than ordinary interest for members of our race, because of the place that corporation occupies as an employer of Negroes and in furnishing comfortable transportation for travelers in various sections of the country. The question of adequate pay for the porters employed on Pullman cars and the betterment of the conditions under which they have to work, in the matter of shorter hours and pay for waiting time, are among some of the questions which will probably confront, the new executive, awaiting an equitable settlement.
There are other questions affecting a larger number of the race, growing out of the discriminations encountered in Southern travel, that should receive needed attention. The policy of the Pullman organization as a corporation engaged in interstate commerce has been to make no discriminations based on race or color in its accommodations for interstate passengers. Despite this attitude of the corporation, there are many states in the South where it is extremely difficult, if not impossible, for a Negro traveler to purchase Pullman accommodations. Even after such accommodations have been purchased and the traveler is in possession of his seat or berth, efforts are made by some conductors to have him relinquish his accommodations, upon entering a state that has separate car laws. Over-zealous railroad employees, including sometimes the Pullman conductors, appear to ignore or disregard the rights of interstate passengers to Pullman accommodations. Many of these employees do not know the difference between an interstate passenger and an intrastate passenger, or if they do, they forget it in deference to the prejudices of the state they may be passing through. Conductors and other Pullman employees should be instructed to respect the rights of interstate passengers to equal accommodations, regardless of any state jim crow laws to the contrary. This would obviate the necessity for costly litigation to recover damages from the Pullman Company for denial of such rights, which the courts have upheld.
The possibility of friction in securing Pullman accommodation on Southern railroads has forced hundreds of colored travelers to make journeys of long dis-
tance by motor cars. This is one of the reasons why the prosperous members of the race, in that section are nearly, all automobile owners, in order that they may escape the unpleasant conditions of jimcrow cars in traveling from one section to another. The number of such travelers runs up in the thousands during a season, and the economic loss to the railroads and Pullman system, must be considerable. There are moral, legal and financial reasons why the Pullman organization should deal equitably with the Negroes of this country, both as

Please find enclosed $2 for year's renewal. Have read The Age since before it was of "age," as your records will show. I look anxiously for it when time comes for its arival.
It has much good food for our group if they will only properly digest it. I look dising it out to sometimes think we are getting the cart before the horse, economically; living beyond our means and too fast; not taking time or care to lay proper solid foundations.
Educationally we are coming, but what is there for our boys and girls to do after finishing school? There is us on every side, but we sit by and let other races take advantage. It is painful to see so many colored groups, settlements, with Jews and Italians in there making good, and we are hunting jobs, confirming Noah's malediction upon Ham and Canaan, "a servant of servants" who it will be to teach much education and no business developments make us top heavy and bottom light.
The way I see things there are many, opportunities and others, by Church, II a. m., sermon by the determined effort and sacrifice, can do, take lessons from them. We must launch into creative business enterprises or be from time to come 'servants of servants.' Another thought, the constant soliciting for this or that cause is tending to make of us a race of servants. He took the solicitor here, one who stands high and is or should be well fixed financially. He thought to take his summer vacation, armed himself with a paper and went from house to house soliciting (bogging) mon to my home with me. No knitting, he came to my home with me, and two words expressing surprise, were sufficient and his courage failed. But he went on to someone else until the desired money was raised. There are many, many of this eye who by hook or crook got over the country on money gotten from the herny hand-laborers.

The planet of this planet are very rapid, and unless the people of these birth dates are ready to take instant advantage of this aspect, they often lose through the delay. Many of these people will be surprised.
a group of experienced employees and as a neglected source of buyers of transportation. The Pullman Company has done much in building up such a group of employees, but the benefits have been reciprocal, with the company profiting largely from the labog of this class of faithful workers. Any concessions that would ameliorate the hardships of their service should be cheerfully granted. The traveling public, black or white, should be given equal accommodations, without friction or intimidation, as a matter of justice, as well as sound financial policy.
nation's greatest gift. They cannot digest the principal of political equality White is their greatest asset, their stock and trade. We are surprise at the low grade of statemanship of the South; they need to plant a new crop under difficult environment, training and practice. The Negro is really enjoying the actors and actresses in Congress and southern legislatures in their colorful phobia comics. And he is very grateful for the editors of some of our dailies and comments of many of our thoughtful American who have passed away, having held the First Lady of the Land in extending a political courtesy (Rev) WILLIAM R.

We are passing through a period of gerat political significance as we think in terms of our future political status. We have reacheth the place where a statesman of statemanlike behaviour is more greatly needed than a politician or political maneuvering. The undue publicity and unwarranted comment provoked by the recent experience of Mrs DePriest at the, now, famous diplomatic teah have attracted national and international attention to the American Negro, especially those in high places and who occupy strategic positions. The demands that the race make upon those conspicuous members and those who are given from page mention our daily papers, our conduct in leading magazines are sometimes as disastrous as they are untimely and distasteful.
I very much hope that members of the race throughout the nation will desist from the usual practice and will not create any occasions or opportunities for the race. Mrs DePrest and Mrs DePrest to travel all over the country making speeches telling in what hand Mrs DePrest held the cup or how many pieces of sugar was used at the tea. Mrs DePrest natural thing her to accept, it should not have occasioned any extraordinary attention or publicity. It will be most gratifying if the race should do the unexpected thing by permitting Mrs DePrest to continue to behave as normal people in their respective positions.
Rev. Dr. J. Gardner Ross
By Dr. THOS. H. B. WALKER
There are iew men who have lived in two generations and still remain possessed by the spirit of youthfulness. The Rev. J. Gardner Ross was ordained as an elder fifty-two years ago and entered the pastorate half a century, and two years over, and still vigorous and full of activity. There is not a church or young college where Dr. Ross is not acceptable. Dr. Ross was born on the Island of Nantucket, Mass, where he received his first schooling, from there he went to Boston to get his finishing touch. He finished theology at the New York University, Mass, and attended lectures at Yale University, New Haven, Conn
He is one of the few men of the race who was ordained by a white council, the brothers of our other race constituting the entire body. This took place in the City of New Haven, Conn. Dr H. M. True, of Meridian, Conn. preached the ordination sermon. In 1848 he came to the South and has served many great churches in New York, Boston, Bethel, Institutional and the Central Baptist Churches of Jacksonville; Zena, Ohio, Pittsburgh, Pa., and Nashville, Tenn. For seventy-two years he has been a member of the Church, and since 1900 he spent in matrimony. He still lives with the wife of his youth.
Uranus is not in good aspect to the birthdates of July 2, 3, and 4, and brings unusual difficulties in family affairs and with the opposite sex in general. This aspect brings incarnations to accidents through motors, machinery and through falls. It has a very adverse aspect on the temper, and makes violence predominate. The planet is in decline in quality, and it is only necessary that these birthdates refuse to "blow up" over matters that are really aggravating. There is a good side, however. It brings gain to those who are doing institution-
COMMENTS BY THE AGE EDITORS
ON THE SAYINGS OF OTHER EDITORS
Discussing the spread of the chain store system, which it is any, has spread even to the funeral director, the St. Luke Harald of Richmond said:
Negroza, happily, are beginning to see the wisdom of cooperative merchandising. They have been driven to it by the merciless competition of the A, and P., Piggy Wiggly, Penders and numerous chains of like operation. The first big experimenting race merchants was tried in Montgomery, it is proving eminently successful and profitable to the merchants.
The latest recruit into the chain store idea is the Quality, Stores, a local combination of a large num' ber of "corner grocery stores", operated mostly by foreign stores. Perhaps the number of stores will be found in Negro neighborhoods or in close proximity to them. They wax fat off of colored patronage. The Negro grocer in the same block suffers and blames the race housewives and other members of the family for their manifest "lack of race pride". There was a time in pride as many terms of sentiment. Today it is computed interm of dollars and cents. To meet the competition of the chain store, the Negro merchant must organize some chain stores too; he must buy in big markets at cheaper prices and maintain a clean attractive business. Chain stores are nothing more than business combinations which cooperate to buy and sell goods.
That is a dispassionate view of the requirements needed to engage in retail trade successfully.
Commenting on the scant courtesy accorded the colored members of the Colonial Parliament of Bermuda, the Hamilton Recorder noted an improvement in the following strain:
About forty years ago the late J. H. T. Jackson, who at that time was a member of the Colonial Parliament, was appointed on a Committee to report on the work that was being done at the Government's institution. As he was an excellent mechanic his help was valuable and for that reason the appointment was made. Since that time, although colored men have been members of the House with scarcely a break, not one has ever been appointed to the Committee until a few days ago, when the Speaker appointed Mr R C. Grawford to serve on the Committee appointed to consider the petitions of the various boat owners living at St Georges and Somerset who are appointed to the Committee and G. A. Williams on the Committee appointed to report on the Governor's Message reecting buildings in the various districts of the Colony. We congratulate the Speaker on his wisdom, the more so, because the public were in his office. His effort would be even more conservative and narrow in his outlook than his predecessors
The editor concluded that the times are changing and the opinions and outlook of the men and women in Bermuda are changing too.
Noting permanent progress in education, the Birmingham Reporter asserted that educational gains for Negroes in Alabama are both tangible and intangible. It continued:
Reviewing the lapse of the decade just passed it may be noted that the teaching force has improved wonderfully in many ways and that improvement have not been found altogether waiting right at home.
The Summer school has evolved itself into a real school in progressive work and advances toward degrees and graduation honors rather than in the circle of the former who course arranged are no different from the other courses assigned to students in the school year and the only difference is the larger percentage of experienced and mature-minded people who pursue the summer courses relieving the tensional requirements for dismal work, and to social workers as well. Nearly all of us know that business is good when romantic affaires are the opposite. The best which will last about this period, which will last about this more years, is to be as courteous considerate of others as is possible and to control the temper. This aspect usually proves the saying that "haste makes waste." Those who are doing social work will find that this aspect seriously interferes with the domain from routine. Notice some of those dates you know were born on these dates. It will interest you.
Jupiter is crossing the natal suns of the birthdates of May 26, 27, 28 and 29 all this week July 7 seems to be the best day. This aspect brings military, commercial gain, and opportunities, a gain gain. The women of these birthdates will feel better health than they have felt in the past. This aspect brings substantial gain and honor to those who are prepared to take advantage of this aspect.
It seems that July 9 will bring about some news of a very important personage. It will be unexpected news, and stairing. Here is a memorandum for the interested student of Astrology.
Who would like to know how to get started? Write to Thearcher in care of The New York Age, 230 West 135th street, New York. The birthdate, month, year, hour and place must be given correctly. If the hour of birth is not known the time of day, morning and the date of the month, should be written at the top of the letter.

cipitie and giving an air of com- combined study and recreation. Perhaps, the happiest feature of summer school work is that it is loping the chaplaina study-course aspects and becoming the regular business-like course identic with the scholastic year for around school and the elimination of the waste of one quarter of the year for school plants where investments of millions of the people's money go idle for an un necessary time. This evolution of the Summer school is one of the signs of the permanent progress in the state's educational program. The building program soon to be under way will constitute a tangible gain much out of proportion to anything that has been placed in the history of education in the state. It comprises at least three new buildings at A. & M. Institute at an approximate cost of $300,000 besides other projects.
There would appear to be something quite tangible in the amount proposed for new buildings. if the building program is adhered to in good faith

Reviewing forty years of educational progress in the city schools, the Baltimore Afro-American summed up the results as follows.
From one colored school, 12 colored teachers, and 651 colored pupils in 1889, Baltimore's colored school system has grown to 35 colored schools, one director, 17 supervisors, 33 principals, 605 teachers and 20,282 pupils.
This forty-year progress cannot be expressed alone in figures, there has been growth in kind and quality of teaching administration, testing and learning.
There have, come also under Mayors Broening and Jackson and under the direct administration of Superintendent David E. Weglein, an adequate system of promotion, equalization and increase of salaries and a new spirit of professionalism among teachers.
Add this to the biggest school building program the city has ever known, before Baltimore can appreciate its school advancement in for-
Baltimore's school system was never in better shape than it is today. It merits the appreciation and cooperation of thinking citizens. It warrants the hope, that school commissioners will take the next step and promote the director. Mr Frances M. Wood, to the assistant superintendency
That is an exceptional condition of advancement to be recorded under the cramping influence of a separate school system Such a system, as a rule, results in inferior facilities for the pupils who are not white.
Under the heading of "A Splendid Colored Enterprise," the Nashville Clannon told about a baseball park in the following terms
Now and then a colored man in this community who controls a little capital, makes a valuable addition to the wealth and business activities of the race. The latest venture of this kind is a splendid baseball park in South Nashville, built by Thomas W. and his associates. This it a large, spacious, well arranged park, especially adapted for baseball purposes. The park is kept clean, it is well lighted, good order is obtained, and every thing possible is done to make it comfortable for the attendants. There are reserved seats for those who willing to pay the price Happily, there is no room in the park where a portion of the people are forced to sit while they are visited frequently by both the sunshine and the rain
The best colored teams are brought here from different portions of the country, and some of the very best games are played from one to the jum-cree arrangement to which our people are subjected elsewhere and makes it possible for a man and his family to sit in pleasant places and enjoy the big league games from beginning to ending.
Baseball is one of best paying forms of warm weather amusement in this country. The promoters of this enterprise have shown business sagacity which should return them handsome profits.

Hailing the announcement on the establishment of an African Fuguee in Liberia as something to be received with great satisfaction the Gold Cobst Times, published at Cane Coast, said.
For obvious reasons it is a good thing that the first African Investigate should be founded on Liberian soil, for Liberia is a black man country, governed by black men and the Government being native to it that deep and abiding interest has been cultivated in education which cannot possibly be expected of the alien Governments in West Africa. In the Gold Coast the British authorities have been spending millions of pounds on education with barren results because the Government is alien, and sulting its own interests it has been providing the people in the type of education it has only resulted in making them great consumers of British goods. The vast traction of land lying undeveloped white on the other hand the natives are obliged to import annually several million pounds worth of articles everyday use, many of which with the right type of education they cannot not self only a condemnation of the educational system here but also a fine example of the exploitation of natives under white rule.
The value of industrial training is evidently appreciated by the thinking natives in British West Africa.

Grace Church of Harlem
A beautiful Sabbath brought out a good) number of the congregation to the morning services at Grace (tuned on Sunday.
It its earner preached a soul-stringing and most interesting sermon. The largest thing brought out in his sermon was that God is more cognant of the little things done by the little man than he is by the great standing out things done by the bigger and "richer man", because the "little man" has to make extreme sacrifice to do the small good dreeds and the big man makes no effort at all because he is already in this worlds goods.

WHERE TO GO TO CHURCH
WHERE TO GO TO CHURCH
The sermon by Dr. Ites on "Famous Bible Women, and their Message for Women of Today," was a masterpiece. Word has gone out in St James from the powers that be that "The Mane Mortgage Kally shall continue until each captain has reached his or her quota, it it takes all summer." So that's that.
"The Church and True Patriotism" is the theme of next Sunday's sermon by Dr. Ites at the morning hour. This morning service is looked forward to with particularly keen anticipation. One of the very interesting features will be the presentation of the honor flag to the North Harlem Community Council by the Community Councils of the City of New York, of which body North Harlem is a branch.
At eight o'clock the summer commission St. James will partake of the Lord's Supper at this hour. There will be no address by the pastor The Office of the Holy Communion in D. In D. Morrow, will be rendered by the chore, under three roles of Dr. Melissa Chin, choreasman.
Mt. Olivet Baptist Church
Although many members have gone away for the summer there was a large attendance at the Mt Olivet Baptist Church, Sunday morning June 10. The pastor chose as his text the 57th chapter of Genesis 58 verse "And Joseph dreamed a dream and he tainted it his brethren, and they hated him the more." He explained how Joseph's brothers hated him not only because he was their father's favorite son but also because all his dreams showed how he would rise above them.

He spoke of how such people are generally misunderstood, disliked and persecuted He thanked God for dreamers, for they are the cause of the advance of civilization. Dreams caused the telephone, electric lights, discovery of planets, and even the new land on which we now live. He mentioned Socrates, John Bunyan, Columbus, Homer, Paul Joan of Ace, Abraham Lincoln, and many others dreamers were persecuted for long dreamers. People only altered their worth long after they were dead Then the teachings and persecutions of Jesus, the Galilean law were widely pictured.
Notice was given by the pastor,
that on account of financial circumstances there would be no Daily Vacation Bible School this summer, unless teachers will volunteer their service, gratis. The pastor also thanked the church for the anniversary reception given him. An announcement was made that the Sunday school will meet every Sunday at 9 o'clock, during the rest of summer Rev J. L.

St. Martin's Chapel
"Kingdom of God" was the subject of the theme chosen last Sunday morning by the Rev. John H. Johnson, pastor of St. Martin's Chapel, 122nd street and Lennox avenue, based on the text as found in the third verse of the 6th chapter at the Gospel according to St Matthew "Seek ye first the kingdom of God."
The minister said in part, "The text is a familiar Bible phrase, but age does not detract from the great grandeur of the words. Their greatness is the fact that they have been a perennial encouragement to Christians throughout the ages. This command however, is soldier followed in the order in which it is given. People seek other things first."
"Education as one of the greatest graces of the age. Whereas this is a worthy quest it is not the most important Education alone, is no guarantee. We omit find great stupidity in high place. Shakes peace has so软. Overmuch learning each made them man." Just knowing will not teach us how to be in the borders of life. Awaan, there are those who agree with Omar Khadijah in believing that the pleasure of the moment is the greatest aim of life. To them happiness is not living a peaceful, hard-nosed progressive life but rather a mad rus of thrill seekers. "Education has its place in the system of existence of recreative place—but when it becomes the most impatient, then it consumes and destroys."

St. Paul Baptist Church
We congratulate Dr Geo H. Sums and the Union Baptist Church on their wonderful financial success within the past six months. We can do this most heartily, since we know what a struggle all the churches are under here in Harlem, New York City. Paul Sold a most successful rally on Sunday last when in its second quarterly rally there was placed on the table SL.203, as the next installment. We are, of course, expecting more within the previous two Sundays. This result was the effect of being distributed the work among the members. Instead of letting the various organizations do the work, therefore, it was divided up among thirty captains, each asked to bring in a certain amount. The people worked as never before, and each and all are to be congratulated on their success.
The regular organization are led by the following person: John W. Ware W. H. Himmer Mrs. Clara Jane Jamie Anderson, Mary H. Thompson Mary M. Washington, Edward H. Harris J. L. Booker, Edward H. Thompson Mrs. Maria Epstein J. B. Roberts, Edward W. Mrs. R. H. Hall, R. B. Simons and John A. Daughtry To these we added the following Mrs. Kristine Williams, Georgia Willis, Virginia Robinson Laura Roberts Elizabeth Couns in Boston Anderson Willie Louell H. Hunger Gubbs and H. Sparks. So successful has been this first effort, along these lines that we shall keep it up for our future talks.
Louell Hunger given by Mrs. Descartes under the club of Mrs. Virginia Robinson was a great star, and Mrs. Robinson one of the movies researched since, we have been in town was heartily congratulated.
The set-ups on the day were exceptionally good the chair was exceptionally good music and the pastor at each service, preaching a only he can preach when unfit tested. The result was that several inward the church, and the people were home at 10 p.m almost unaware that it had been tally day.

THE material contrast between the structures with which (Booker T. Washington) began and the present great, ample and commodious plant is sufficiently striking to be enough for one man to bring about. But an important encouragement as this is, is it but an imperfect measure of Dr. Washington's work and achievement. The ration and annual turing out of two or three hundred young men and women for lives useful to themselves and their families is of course a most commendable and helpful work, but that was only one part of what he did to do. His purpose was to create from the best Tuskegee the light of the homely but ever living truth which must form the best real advance for his race, or any race—WILLIAM HOWARD TAFT, Chief Justice United States—Supreme Court.

pressed that we must reason and understand each other. His speech was powerful and full of meaning. He spoke as one well acquainted with the Divine Plan. It could be plainly seen that the impression therefrom had taken good effect. The consequences were that all were greatly inspired and endowed with the spirit.
The B. Y. P. U. opened with an unusually large number of people who were well entertained during this period. The topic chosen for discussion was: "Heroes for Jesus." Each were given a few minutes to express their opinion.
The choir presented many beautiful songs which were carefully selected for the occasion.
Emanuel-A. M. E. Church
Sunday morning June 30, the pastor, Rev. D Ward Nichols, filled the pulpit, using for his sermon subject, "The Fuller Life." This message was full of thought for Christian development and any one who heard it can not help feeling that Rev. Nichols is a true minister of God. The constant growth of our congregation is evidence that our church is gaining power and influence in the community. It is such sermons as this which cause persons to take thought of their manner of living. At the close of the sermon seven persons joined the church. At 2 o'clock the Sunday school held its regular session. This department of the church is also making rapid strides.
The Christian Endeavor met at 6:30 and held a very interesting session. Next Sunday the new topic cards will be distributed and a special program will be rendered. At the evening service the pastor again filled the pulpit, using for his subject, "The Transfiguration." There was a splendid crowd and all enjoyed the message. The choir under direction of Herbert Allen rendered splendid service all day. During the summer months our services are being greatly shortened in order that we may not suffer from the heat. Next Sunday, July 7, the Holy Communion will be served at both services. The pastor will preach. On Monday, July 8, our annual bazaar will open and continue through Friday, July 12.
Siloam Presbyterian Church
Sunday ended the glorious services of the week in the celebration of the 80th anniversary of Siloam, Dr George Shippen Stark, pastor. Each night of the week felicitations were extended by the pastors and congregations of the several
THE
denominations of the city, together with the patroltic, fraternal, and civic organizations of the borough. Friday night was the outstanding night of the weekly services when the Presbytery of Brooklyn Nesau was the guest of the church with the Rev. Andrew Magill, minister, presiding, and officers and ministers present and extending their greetings.
The service of the Sunday morning worship was the historical service. Edler David J. Bruce, a son of one of the early founders, gave the history of the church.
A tribute by the pastor was paid to Thomas P. Windsor, president of the board of trustees, for his unflagging service of devotion and faithfulness and as a friend and hard worker.
The sacrament of baptism was administered to the infant of Mr. and Mrs. Leonard J. Adams at this service.
The afternoon service was in memory of those who have passed into the Great Beyond and as their names were recalled many happy and blessed recollections were brought to mind. Particularly so was it when the memory of the late Dr William A. Alexander was recalled who served as pastor of the church for a year and many flowers were given for the late Dr W. A. Alexander, N B, Lewis, Mrs A. M Fisher, Edward W. Brown and Miss Ernestine Miller.
Organization service was observed at the evening hour of worship, Rev. J. B. Harper, former pastor, was present and addressed the organizations, Dr. Stark expressed feelingly appreciation for the uniting and faithful services rendered by the various organizations and boards of the church during the year and especially so of the past week. Greetings and expressions of commendation were extended to Dr. Stark for his labors of love and service and for the building up of the church to a high place of honor and service in this life and growth of the community
It was the birthday of Dr. Stark a particularly fitting and appropriate occasion for the closing of the celebration and gave opportunity for a happy climax to the week's anniversary. In keeping with the happy occasion and spirit flowers were presented to Mrs. B W. Stark, wife of the pastor, and the pastor was the happy recipient of many gifts from the organizations and boards of the church.

HAMPTON & LING
AT POLO GRO
By CHAS. H. WILLIAMS
Hampton Institute, Va — The
athletic departments of Hampton
Institute and Lincoln University
have just completed arrangement
for their annual football game to
be played in the Polo Grounds,
New York on Saturday, November
2nd, 1929
For some months correspondence
has been conducted with a view
to arranging a game at the
Polo Grounds or the Yankee Stadium,
and when one realizes that
already football games have been
booked up to 1933 in these important sport arenas, it can easily be seen how dirt util it is to get either place
The scheduled date for the 1929 football game between Hampton and Lincoln was the last Saturday in October. This game in the past has been played on a similar date in Philadelphia, Baltimore, and at Hampton. It was not possible to secure the Polo Grounds for October 20, 1929, but the date of November 2 was offered, in spite of the fact that it was wanted by teams from other quarters.
Other Games Changed
Hampton and Lincoln are scheduled to play North Carolina and Morgan Colleges, respectively on November 2 but when there was a possibility of introducing New college football teams to the New York public both North Carolina College and Morgan gladly adopted their schedules to all Hampton and Lincoln play on that date.
This will be the first time New college teams have played before the New York public. The Hampton football fans have repeatedly tried to out of some of the leading college tag games in New York but until the present they have been unsuccessful. Because of the great demand for such a game in New York City the outlook for success encouraging Many of the leading citizens have already expressed their willingness

Prospects For Games
The opportunity for New colleges to secure either the Polo Grounds or Yankee Stadium for future games will be largely determined by the outcome of this venture. For this reason every possible effort will be made to conduct this game successfully. Hampton and Lincoln both have large following, and strong Alumni Association in New York City which will cooperate with their institutions to stage this game. Those responsible in the conduct of the game and its management are Ray McCarthy, representing the Polo Grounds, Dr Francis James, representing James and Charles H Williams representing Hampton Institute

The story of 'Kid Gloves' which is a talking picture, is that of a society girl whose slight indiscrepancy lies in underworld affairs. The taxi in which she is riding with her lover suddenly hails in the hotspot of a street gang-buster. She is taken unconscious into some of a woman shop litter by the taxi driver and there is tated to meet 'Kid Gloves' himself—and to begin adventures which change the lives of both 'Kid Gloves' is a rattling entertainment in its own right and with the added feature of Miss Wilson's and Mr Nagel's excellent speaking voices, it makes one of the most delightful picture plays of this or any other season. There will be the usual complement of interesting short subjects on the New Dough, bill 777 the dates a movie entoured
Beginning Saturday and not four days, July 6, 7, and 8, the New Douglas offers a real novelty in all talking picture 'Monte Blues' at its training vehicle. Conquest, the first serial talkie Conquest is a terrible dramatization of the exploration of the Antarctic station on the South Pole. While patterning vividly two epocalyptic dances into the land of ice mystery, it X-rays just as vividly the innermost thoughts and activity of its characters, revealing their weakness and fear maddened treachery as well as their heroism when racing death H B Warner, that sterling actor appears as Monte's pal and toe in Conquest. Los Wilson in the girl they both love; Lennard dreeces her father and Jolly Marsh shall the lovable old family friend Roy Del Ruth directed Conquest and so excellently that the scenes on flight and desolation and conflict seem as it lived in the presence of spectators. The making of this extraordinary picture was an heroic task and the result more than just the effort. See it is to enjoy a new experience in screen entertainment made possible through the unnite age of Vitaphone.

Ministers Condemn Dual Leadership

er interest in registration and voting" (the quotation is verbatim as regards construction and punctuation)
Election Board Reports
The annual report for 1928 of the Board of Elections of the City of New York gives, on page 82, the total vote cast in the 21st Congressional District in the November, 1928, election for a Congressman as being 112,380, with 138 absentee voters additional, some 66,482 less than the figure quoted by Mr. Smith. The five Assembly Districts comprising the 21st Congressional are the 13th, 19th, 21st, 22nd, 23rd.
And the report shows further that the vote cast in the 11th W. D. C., cited by Mr. Smith as one of the five in place or the 23rd) totalled only 20,915 as compared with 50,378 in the 23rd, which makes the actual difference much larger.
A further analysis of Mr. Smith's statement shows that he is setting forth the dual leadership suggestion as a panacea for all theills to which the race is subjected, both commercially visually and politically. The statement says
"It was pointed out that the competition resting from the presence the two races in Harlem required adjustment necessitating dual leadership, especially in the matter of securing employment for Negroes with the white dealers in Harlem and regulating the matter of advising on civil rights and the direction of proper enforcement of equal health measures and better housing and lower rents for the Negro residents. Ways and means of curbing the failure of Negro businesses was stressed.
Of the large number of ministers said to have been present, Mr. Smith named on the Rev. Porter W. Phillips president, the Rev. C. Franklin of Tarrytown, secretary the Rev. W. W. Brown pastor of Metropolitan Baptist Church where the meeting was held and the Rev. P. DeWitt Perryman of Chicago The Rev Franklin and Perryman are non-voters in New York City.

"Satisfaction," was the subject of the intelligently discussed service by the Rev. A. A. Crooke, of Louisville, Ky., at the morning service on Sunday.
The Sunday school hour, as usual, was an enjoyable one. A special feature at this time was the presentation of well prepared papers, several of the teachers, on the life and character of great leaders studied about in the lessons during the quarter. In conclusion, as a fitting culmination, the pastor, Rev W C Brown, summarized in a general way the entire study.
The sacred concert presented under the auspices of the senior churc D B. Bridges, director, at the evening service was of a high order.
The annual baby contest was launched during the day and a special interest toward the success of this effort is solicited
Berean Baptist Church
"The Value or a Definite Aim" was our pastor a subject, and his text was stolen from 11 Kings 9:24. "And John drew a bow with his full strength."
Soldiers are not the only ones who have an aim or a target, but each individual has one and how to hat that target is the big question. Let us use John's practical exhibition of how to hit the mark. Three things made his arrow effect one. Individuality, two physical energy, three definite aim.
This was wisely chosen by our pastor, because at no better time could this be helpful than now. Our children have graduated some from elementary school high and college and they should have an aim.
Seven persons united at our morning service
Sunday school convened after morning church for a short session. In the afternoon the Missionary Society had their regular with Sunday services. The service was opened with a half hour testimonial meeting in which all took a part. The speaker for the hour was Rev Mrs Marshall Her subject was "Put on the whole armor of God, that we may be able to stand against wiles of the devil." Found in Ephesians 6:11.
The vesper services were short and sweet with another nine mesage coming from the pastor.
The fire still burns in our prayer meetings and we contribute the success of our church because of it. We are preparing to build a parsonage for our pastor within the next few days and soon to rebuild our church. Also we are trying to get our young men lined up in a club to build up the spiritual and social side of them. July 1 our Week Day Vacation Bible School opened with a large attendance of children under the leadership of Mrs. Scott. The church backed up our organist at his recital Monday and it was a grand success. We are doing a great work around this section of Brooklyn and we hope to continue the same
Concord Baptist Church
The Concord choir rendered the oratorio by A. R. Gaul entitled "The Holy City to an audience of one thousand last Sunday night. Enthusiasm over the splendid singing was so high that people crowded about the director and choir complimenting without reserve the wonderful chorus effects. The organist made the statement that this was the first time the choir under his direction had attempted an oratorio but that it had been his purpose to sing in the congregation music by the masters. We sincerely hope that more music of this type will resound within the walls of Concord, not only that it may be enjoyed but that the audience may become familiar with the noble compositions of great musicians and may appreciate more fully the powers of the choir and director in song.
Occasionally the church gives the choir an appreciation of its volunteer and faithful service. For this purpose a special offering amounting to $170 was taken on Sunday. No attempt is made to pay the members of the choir for some of them have spent hundreds of dollars in voice training and a like amount in carfare and sacra-fices without mention. Perhaps the fact that these people are willing to spend money and time in this volunteer service is what gives the Concord Choir its famous sing in white as well as colored churches. Word came from Durham N.C. that the pastor Rev James B. Adams and his family are enjoying the return trip. Daily Vacation Bible School began Monday with nearly seventy children in attendance Paul Stewart, scoutmaster and carter, has planned a community building projects for junior boys Mrs S Dorothy Etheridge. Miss Mamie Johnson Miss Julia Simpson. Miss Mary Brown are the other prepared teachers, with Miss L. Frances Phillips as principal.

Response from Rev. W. P.

They all showed their love and appreciation, some quietly and some demonstratively The Sunday school marched by music, and the Girls Culture Club gave cheers for the pastor
There was a spirit of fellowship and harmony as they went downstairs to the reception. A long table was beautifully set in the decorated lecture room, prepared for the pastor and his guests. They were served a delicious repast of chicken salad on lettuce, rolls, olives, punch, home-made cake and home-made ice cream. The entire congregation received a plenty of ice cream and cake.

Nazarene Cong. Church
The gist of the address of the Rev. Dr. Henry Hugh Proctor Sunda, evening was an appeal to President Hooper to consider for his Law Commission on the following items touching the Negro Work, Travel, School Funds, Residential Segregation, the Ballot and Lunching. By motion of Robert Beck, a letter was sent to the President, embodying the views of the address. The failure of the President to include a colored man on the Law Commission was referred to, with the hope that he might include one on the Farm Board since large a percentage of the Negro race is engaged in farming.

A Pullman passenger was recently overheard to ask a porter this question:
"Say, Johnson, what is Harlem's reaction to the incident of Mrs Hoover's entertaining Mrs. DePriest?"
"Well, Mr. Smith, I am not in a position to give you a well informed reply, but from my limited observation, I would say that Harlem does not think anything about it.

From that observation, we get the idea that Mr Garland has definite opinions about the joys of being a Pullman porter. For his education, we might offer this bit of information on the subject.

The basis for this opinion is furnished every day by young men who have given up stage work to become Pullman porters. If all these former colored stage artists were assembled together, we would be inclined to wager that a second edition of "Blackbirds" could be staged.
While on the subject of colored boys, we cannot resist the impulse to decry this new fad, with many of them, of making their hair synthetic instead of allowing it to remain natural. It might be an advantage to the feminine sex to resort to this expediency, but for those of the masculine gender to do so, strikes us as being monkeyfied to the utmost degree.

Ex-Pullman Porter Is Now Successful Doctor
It took Moses forty years to prepare himself to lead the children of Israel out of the wilderness; but Dr. H. N. Middleton spent much less time in qualifying as a medical doctor and surgeon. The subject of this sketch left the Pullman company in Boston, where he was employed as a Pullmar porter, about three years ago. He practiced in Memphis, Penn. to a year, and seeing a more permising field in Anderson, Ind., he located in that city where he now is permanently established. Since his advent in Anderson, he has made tremendous strides in his training, having passed the Examination Board of two states, independent of Massachusetts.
He soon leaped over all medical barriers and now enjoys the full faith and confidence of both the lazy as well as the professional world. His mental acumen is such that he is called in consultation requiring the highest judgment and skill; he has met these tests to the satisfaction of his brother physicians. He has built up practice second to none in his written, and has proven to the world that brain power is trained in a public race. The phenomenal rise he has made is chosen walk of life has challenged and attracted the notice of some of our greatest scholars and many of our deepest, thinkers. When we think how skilfully and flow successfully he has climbed the ladder of fame, our kind of praise is but a faint echo

This was the 20th annual meeting of the body and it ran through from June 26 to July 2.

Miss Ovington declared that the association reflects the history of the American Negro in all its phases during the past twenty years, and that it has touched every element of his life. It has assisted in education; disclosed discrimination in distribution of school funds in the town, which prevented many segregated schools in the North. It has defend the race's right to live wherever his money will take him, it has greatly lessened the crime of lynching, and succeeded in getting a Supreme Court decision against the Texas white primary.
Dr. W. E. B. DuBois delivered the keynote address, reviewing the work of the association during the past twenty years.
Prejudice Strongest Factor
At the Thursday night meeting, Miss Nannie H. Burroughs, founder and principal of the National Training School for Women and Girls at Washington, declared that prejudice is a stronger factor in American life than Christianity, and that lynching, segregation, mob lawlessness and race prejudice are "millistones about the neck of American democracy that will drag it down unless justice is substituted for inequalities."
Another speaker was Edwin R. Embree, president of the Julius Rosenwald Fund, who asserted that the American Negro has become recognized as an integral part of the nation, with all the duties and responsibilities of other groups in the population. He spoke of three stages in the development of the American Negro First, slave stage, and Negro Second: Construction; third, present era; incidentally, Mr. Embree reported that Negroes had raised over 54,000,000 toward Rosenwald schools in the South.
William Pickens, field secretary of the N. A. A. C. poke at the meeting on Friday night, and declared that the work of the association had changed public sentiment in United States in teh field of race relations
Must Battle For Ballot
Another speaker was Judge Ira W. Jayne, of the Wayne County Circuit Court, Detroit, who pointed out that the Negro's next battleground in America will be over the ballot. Most ardent advocates of enforcing some of the Amendments to the Constitution, he said, are the most strenuous nullifiers of the 14th and 15th Amendments. The reapportionment measure in Congress is the most vulnerable point of attack.
Mrs. Sallie W. Steward, president of the National Association of Colored Women, said that Negro women must shoulder the task of rooting out undesirable traits fostered by slavery, and must bring such training as will refine and develop the Negro's native talents to the maximum efficiency
The Sunday afternoon meeting was held in the Municipal Auditorium and Congressman Hamilton Fisher, Jr. of New York was the principal speaker. He designated the critics of Mrs. Herbert Hower for having entertained the wife of Congressman DePriest as "political and social cultures, who are always seeking an opportunity to pounce upon some item for political advantage and with opportunities to the end with their demotion of twelve million law-abiding colored American citizens for during to hold their heads up and seeking rights under the law."
Social Issue A Camouflage
Mr Fiss declared that the whole Negro problem may be summed up in the worlds justice, more justice, and still more justice. The social equality issue is just a canon of racism in the United States will be on steadily and without fear or until they have won all their right.

Mrs. Eleanor R. Wembridge, referee of the Juvenile Court here in Cleveland, deplored the fact that Negro juvenile delinquents have no organizations to come to their aid and to save them from commitment to state institutions. She pointed out also that white girls, even the foreign born, have representatives to show, judge or employer to show interest in their cases and to provide homes in their supervision and thus are saved from state institutions, while the colored girl, committing the same midmeanor, would have to be sent way because of a lack of aid from church or social groups.
Harmon Art Exhibit To Be Displayed In St. Louis July 8 to 22
The St Louis Public Library announces an exhibition of the work of Negro artists of St Louis from July 10 to August 5. The Harmon Exhibit of Negro Artists, a collection of the best paintings by Negroes in the United States, has been brought to St Louis by the Race Relations Committee of the Community Council and will be shown July 8 to 22. at the City Art Museum, that beautiful structure, itself a work of art, which crowns Art Hill in Forest Park, left from the World Fair as a permanent heritage to St Louis and its thousands of visitors. The idea of bringing the Harmon exhibit to St Louis and of fostering and including appreciation and expression by promoting an exhibit of the work of local artists, is that of John T. Clark, executive secretary of the Urban League of St Louis, Mr. Clark has been loyally supported by a small, group composed of artists and art lovers.
Added interest attends the local exhibit with the announcement that awards of four cash prizes have been offered by the following citizens: Aaron W. Lloyd of the Knights of Pythias, Mr and Mrs. Macklin of the Macklin Cafeterias; Judge Crittenden E. Clark of the Justice Court, and Mrs John A. Haskell, a member of the Community Council.
Several young matrons, prominent in the social and civic life of St Louis, are making their contribution to the movement by securing cash prizes for the best work offered by the fillefellows, among many of them, with little or no formal art training, have submitted work of striking talent and promise. The jury of admissions and the jury of awards are composed of recognized art critics. The decision of the jury of awards and the occasion of their presentation will be given publicity later.
Mrs. A. M. Malone has encouraged the movement by offering Poro College for assembling pictures for consideration

THE NEW YORK AGE
Washington, D. C.—By a resolution passed at the last session of the State Legislature, the State of Maine has provided a fund of $50,000 for the erection at Gettysburg, Pa. of a monument to the late Gen. Oliver Otis Howard, founder of Howard University, who was commanding officer of the Teird Maine Regiment during the Civil War. At the Battle of Gettysburg, General Howard commanded the 11th Corps, succeeding to the supreme command when Gen. Reynolds was killed.
The design will be that of an equestrian statue, with the base of Maine granite to "typify the rugged soil from which sprang the only general officer from Maine who rose to the command of an army on the field."
Congress thanked Gen Howard for his action at Gettysburg. He was born in Leeds, Me., and was a graduate from West Point. He commanded the Third Maine at Fair Oaks, when he lost an arm in the battle. While convalescing he did recruiting duty in Maine, and returned to active service after the battle of Manassas. He commanded, at times, the Armies of the Potomac, the Cumberland and the Tennessee in the summer school at University University will make a trip to Gettysburg during the early part of August, and lay a marker on the site of the statue, as is their annual custom
