B. P. O. of Elks of the World, in its parade, led by its superb muscal contingent, the Monarch Symphony Band, led by Lieut. Fred W. Simpson, through the streets of Harlem, from its home at 235 West 137th street, to St. Nicholas Park. Promptly at 10 o'clock, in full panoply of regalia and lodge emblems, members of the organization stepped away from the lodge home, the line headed by an escort of uniformed policemen from the new 32nd Precinct, West 135th street station, with Captain Edward Bracken commanding. The chief of staff was Patrolman Allen J Benton, who strutted in all the dignity of his 6 feet, 6 inches of stature. Free For All Fight Almost Results In Riot at Ball Game Jersey City, N. J.—A free-for-all resulting from a disputed decision The Line of March Proceeding to 8th avenue, the line of march continued to 138th street, through to Lenox avenue; it turned North then to 145th street and marched West to 7th avenue. Down the line reaches of 7th street to the 158th street, then wended its way, and then turned East to Lenox avenue again. Up Lenox to 145th street, through which it passed to St. Nicholas Park, where splendid photographs were taken on the lodge, and the band, including a number of distinguished guests. The music played by Simpson's fine group of men was inspiring and thrilled hundreds who assembled at various points of vantage along the line of march. And an artist who was a member of the marching through 135th street past the police station house enroute to the park, when the stately dignity of the chief of Cap' Bracken's staff, Patrolman Benton, was not able, seemingly, to withstand the witching and feet-tickling strains of music. Benton's Dancing Feel His stature and military bearing had attracted much attention and many plaudits' from the assembled crowds, but all that had passed were as nothing to the roar of appreciation and enjoyment that burst forth when the music's lilting melody broke through his dignified restraint and led him to break into a series of dance steps. It was only for a few paces, then his dignity reasserted itself and he became again the epitome of military sedatness. The lodge was led by its exalted ruler, Casper Holstein, who was accompanied by his official staff. Among the distinguished members of Monarch Lodge who took part in the parade were Alderman Fred R. Moore and Detective. Sergeant Samuel J.

J. — A free-for-all resulting from a disputed decision in a ball game Sunday at Montgomery Oval, between thir Diamonds a team of white players from Bayonne, and the Jersey City Blue Sox, a colored team, narrowly escaped being a race riot, when police of the Montgomery Street station broke in the fight between the coated and white spectators with their nunchucks. The fight started, when a member of the Blue Sox team running to second base during the seventh inning of the game, slid for the base, jostling the Diamonds' second baseman as he did so. An argument resulted as to whether the runner was safe or not. The colored player also claimed that he had been spiked by the second baseman of the opposing team. The crowd in the grandstand took sides and a concerted rush started for the players at second base. Before the policemen that were detailed gave the game could continue, the Charles Regeney, 22 of 21 West Fifty-third street, Bayonne, the second baseman of the Diamonds', had been struck in the right side with a baseball bat, and punched in the jaw by two of the colored spectators.

While the fight was in progress, the policemen who were on detail at time game tried to stop the affair, using their clubs on many of the men who were fighting. A call was sent into police headquarters from the City Hospital, asking for additional policemen to prevent the impending riot. Patrolman Harry A Delaney, the operator of the switchboard at police headquarters, relayed the message to the Montgomery and Grand street stations. Reserves were sent to the Oval in auto patrols and motorcycles, and the fight was promptly stopped Many of the persons who were fighting escaped from the scene in automobiles The police believe that some of those who escaped were injured in the fight. During the fight, Patrolman Graham of the Commimipaw Avenue station, who was on duty at the game, arrested James Mott, 21, colored of 167 Wilkinson avenue, after Mott had attempted to assault the policeman The game was not allowed to continue.

BAYONNE THEATRE DISCRIMINATION BRINGS PROTEST Citizens Win Promise of Management Practice Will Be Stopped Bayonne, N J.-The Bayonne branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has won one of the most effective and far-reaching fights against racial discrimination in the history of the local colored community, according to Dr. George L. Johnson, president of the Bayonne Branch. Three months ago the largest and most modern theatre, in the city instituted a policy of directing colored patrons to the balcony. Some prominent colored citizens were refused orchestra seats on the time sold out. Others were directed upstairs with orchestra tickets, only to find that there were plenty of vacant seats downstairs. After many respected citizens were humiliated and embarrassed, the Bayonne branch took up the fight. Reprints of the New Jersey Civil Rights Law were made and distributed to local churches. The people were told to "Know the law—know their rights—and then stand up for them." Confer With Manager A conference was arranged with the manager of the theatre by a committee representing the branch, consisting of Mrs Hattie Williams a community leader, Rev J. A. Myers, pastor of the Angelic Baptist Church; and Dr George L. Johnne, president of the branch. The committee intelligently and fearlessly branded the policy as a "breeding place" for racial discrimination, which would ultimately spread to restaurants, other places of public amusement, and eventually to the schools, they assured the manager that the colored citizens did not seek sympathy nor special consideration, but fair play, and they advised that the Bayonne branch was giving the first opportunity to stop the policy before exposing its unfairness before the entire city. In his reply, the manager attempted to deny that he had instituted a policy based upon racial discrimination, but claimed that it was based upon "proper attire." He admitted that some of his employees had become too officious and that they had been discharged, and assured the Bayonne branch that he would exert his influence to keep any policy of racial discrimination out of the theatre in the future. Since this conference, no new cases of racial discrimination have been reported to the local branch.

NEW YORK, N. Y., SATURDAY, JULY 13, 1929 HENRY JOHNSON, 1st HERO OF 369th, DIES IN WASHINGTON Washington, D. C—William Henry Johnson, who with Needham Roberts thrilled the world in the summer of 1918 by single-handedly repulsing an attack of the Germans and capturing or killing some 15 German soldiers, died here Tuesday, July 2, almost in poverty. Johnson served overseas with the 369th Infantry, formerly the Old Fifteenth Regiment of New York, which was brigaded with French troops at the front. Late one night word came that the Germans were preparing to attack the Negro regiment. Immediately they organized for defense and in order to warn the troops of their danger, sentinels were placed along the front lines. Privates Henry Johnson and Needham Roberts were sent to do sentinel duty at a small outpost on the front line. Cut Off From Comrades The attack came in the middle of the night at the point where Johnson and Roberts were stationed, and they soon found themselves cut off from regimental headquarters, with ory a few hard hand grenades and their pistols. When the Germans discovered them, they opened fire and Johnson was wounded three times and Roberts twice but both refused to surrender. The Germans cropt closer and closer and when they discovered the brave Americans had exhausted their ammunition, rushed in to seize them. They were about to drag Roberts away when Johnson attacked them, washing right through the handle of his revolver and slashing effectively with his holo knife which had the weight of a cleaver and the blade of a razor. Stung by the sheer bravery of their lone attacker, the Germans turned and fled but not before several had been killed or seriously wounded. Both Men Decorated For this seat both Johnson and Roberts were awarded the Croix de Guerre, being the first members of this regiment to be so decorated. After being in French Hospitals for some time, they came home on sick leave and were given a hero's welcome by citizens of New York. Johnson was a native of Albany, N.Y. and citizens there as well as citizens of New York City planned to aid him to start off on some successful peace-time pursuit but he wandered from city to city and never really settled down. His last visit to New York was in 1919 when Alderman Moore brought him back to New York to aid in the Victory Loan drive. He told of his exploits in France in both Wall street and Harlem. He was buried with full military honors, at Arlington National Cemetery last Friday. He wife Mrs Minnie Johnson survives him. HEALTH RECORDS SHOW DECREASE IN INFANT DEATHS Benefits Result From Operation of Health Centers In City The Department of Health, through Dr. Shirley W Wynne, commissioner, reports that during the past three months the infant death rate in New York City reached its lowest point in the past six years, with every promise of setting a new low record. This result has been attained says Dr Wynne, through systematic efforts on part of the health authorities to educate parents in care of children. The figures show that the death rate fell to 41.6 per 1,000 births during one week as compared with 55 in the corresponding period from 1923 to 1928, and is against 75 in the same week in 1928. With an annual average of 125,000 births yearly, this means that there are 12,500 more babies alive this year than would have survived had last year's rate continued in effect. In Harlem, much of the result attained is to be attributed to the work of various health centers, particularly the Henry Street Visiting Nurses operating from the branch office at 204 West 136th street Miss Marion Pettiford peruntendent and the Harlem Health Committee, Mrs Mabel Dovle KeKaton, secretary, with headquarters in the same building, that of the New YoYrk Urban League. It is estimated that there will be 25,000 more babies at the end of 1920 than there have been in several years. Dr. U. C. Vincent Now Out of Danger Reading, Pa.—Roy Morse, former sprint champion of New York City, is in a hospital here with a fractured skull and other injuries as a result of being struck by flying stones from a blast Friday, July 5. Mr. Morse came here with Bgn Birnie, noted orchestra leader, to test a car before accompanying the musician on a motor trip across the continent. He was on the golf links of the Reading Country Club when workmen building a road for the club put off a blast several hundred feet. The injured man was rushed to the Homeopathic Hospital where his condition was reported as serious. His wife, Mrs Odessa Morse, milliner, of 2293 Seventh avenue, and her mother, Mrs Sadie Warren-Davis, owner of The Amsterdam News, are at his bedside 103 INJURED AS FIRE STARTS IN BASEBALL PARK Detroit Fans In Panic As Flames Envelop End Of Grandstand 103 INJURED AS FIRE STARTS IN BASEBALL PARK Detroit Fans In Panic As Flames Envelop End Of Grandstand Detroit, Mich.—Crushed and trampled in a wild stampede for exits when the wooden grand stand of the Mack baseball park burst into flames, 103 persons, since seriously injured Sunday, July 7, four of them near death. The fire and panic occurred just before the start of a double-header between the Detroit Stars and the Kansas City Monarchs, leading to the National Negro Baseball League. Those probably fatally hurt are Richard Rose, 35, James Thomas, 34, and Levi Thomas, 19, who suffered fractured skulls, and William Harvey, 32, whose spine was broken. Women and Children Hurt Most of the other victims, among them many women and children, sustained fractures of the limbs. Dozens of others, knocked down, cut and brushed, received medical attention at their homes. The majority of the more seriously hurt were those battered under the heels of the fear-striken fans, who jumped from the upper tiers onto the milling mass. Police officials investigating the fire questioned John Roosink, head of the Mack Avenue Exhibition company, who operates the park. He was shot and wounded at the park a five-gallon car of gasoline he intended to burn on the wet ground to dry the soil. As he was about to touch a match to the gasoline, he asserted, he heard cries of 'Fire' and saw flames enveloping the west end of the stand. Some Leaped Thirty Feet Many on the upper seats leaped thirty feet to the ground. Those in the center of the stand surged down toward the field. Some jumped on the heads of those below. It is believed that the fire was not the result of, the gasoline, but that some one dropped a lighted match and set fire to the dry wood of the stand WHITE FARMER IS CLEARED BY JURY IN PEONAGE CASE Charges Made By White and Negro Denied By Georgia Planter Americans, Ga.,—W.

The poacher, while not relaxing their efforts to discover the woman in Jersey City, are inclined to the idea that she might have come over from New York City, committed the crime, left the body in the party toilet, to which anyone, entering the house has been, and then took a train at the Jackson avenue station en route back to New York City. More than 2000 people viewed the body of the child on Sunday as it lay in Blacker's Morgue on Jackson avenue, but not one could identify it, now is there any report of a child being missing.

Dr. Peretman of the City Horse-petal responded to the police call and pronounced the child dead from strangulation before the body was removed to the morgue. In the meantime, Dr. Arthur P. Haskins assistant County physician has not held an autopsy, explaining that he will not do so until identification has been made, that if the autopsy were performed the body would have to be buried at once Inspector John Underwood and Capt Charles Wilson of the Ocean avenue station are in charge of the investigation.

Abyssima has been without an Aboona since the death of Aboona Matheos in December, 1926, which was followed closely by the death of the Patriarch of Egypt. The election of the Egyptian Patriarch took considerable time, and pending this election the appointment of a new Aboona was in abavance. Egypt Rules Church Although Abbyssina is politically an independent state, the Patriarch of Egypt holds religious jurisdiction over the Greek Orthodox population of Ethiopia, and confirms the election of the Abbao, who must be a subject of King Fuad of Egypt. As soon, however, as the Egyptian Patriarch Johannes, NV was elected, the Egyptian Government to Egypt, Sahle Sedalou, Minister of Education and Fine Arts, to discuss unofficially the question of the appointment of the new Abbao. Want Native Patriarch In Abyssinia a considerable body of opinion feels that the Aboona should no longer be an Egyptian, but an Abessinian, and that further Abyssinian Bishops should be appointed. On the other hand the Greek Orthodox Church of Egypt, otherwise known as the Copt Church, considers it essential that the Aboona should be an Egyptian Further, the Egyptians are opposed to the appointment of Abyssinian Bishops, since following the laws of the church, three Bishops can consecrate an Aboona. To Name Native Bishop This difference of opinion has been solved by mutual concessions between the two Governments Hereafter the Aboona shall, as in the past, be an Egyptian On the other hand, five Abyssinian Bishops are to be appointed, but they are to undertake to obey the orders of the Aboona and further to swear that they will not consecrate an Aboona or King under pain of excommunication. It is believed such a compromise will allay the fears in Egypt that Abyssina may in the future elect its own Aboona, as Alabama did recently, without reference to Egypt, and on the other hand will insure that in case of internal trouble, matters will not be further complicated by the consecration of rival Kings.

As the date grows nearer for the holding of the Republican fusion convention to settle upon a candidate for Mayor, the lack of strong candidates on the Republican side who are able and willing to shake the race, becomes startlingly apparent. It is expected that National Commatteeman Hilles will call a conference of the various county chairmen and other city leaders some time this month to formulate plans for a ticket. In the absence of any inclination to set up a strong Republican for Mayor, As the date grows nearer for the holding of the Republican fusion convention to settle upon a candidate for Mayor, the lack of strong candidates on the Republican side who are able and willing to make the race, becomes startlingly apparent. It is expected that National Commutteeman Hilles will call a conference of the various county chairmen and other city leaders some time this month to formulate plans for a ticket. In the absence of any inclination to set up a strong Republican for Mayor, it is thought that this conference will give serious consideration to the endorsement of ex-Mayor Hylan on the Republican ticket to oppose Mayor Walker In case of such an ignominious surrender as that, the Republican voters of New York City will be given the choice of voting for one or the other Democrat Hylan or Walker. The former occupied the office for eight years as the choice of Tammany Hall and Hearst, while the latter has had not quite four years as the choice of Tammany only. So far as the colored voters of Harlem are concerned, they have but little cause to find fault with either of these city executives. The interests of the race have received fair treatment under both administrations. Harlem has received its share of civic improvements, including schools and other public facilities. There is no cause for fear under the rule of either of these candidates. The fact that Republican leaders have find their only chance of winning a municipal contest in the endorsement of a former Democratic incumbent, emphasizes the low estate of the party in New York City. Time was when Republicans could nominate and elect a candidate of their own party like Seth Low or William L. Strong. The last Mayor elected by Republicans on a fusion ticket was John Purroy Mitchell, who was an independent Democrat at that. The last Republican to serve as Mayor was Ardolph L. Kline, who filled the vacancy caused by the death of Mayor Gaynor. There is every reason why a strong and reputable opposition to Tammany Hall government should have an inning at city government now and then, but the present Republican leadership does not seem able to grasp the opportunity. This failure to put in the field a strong winning ticket is not wholly due to the absence of strong and able individuals as candidates. Several have been suggested, but generally decline to make the fight on the ground that it is hopeless. Among those named have been Colonel Hayward and Colonel Little of the old Fifteenth Regiment, Former Senator Calder of Brooklyn, Supreme Court Justice James C. Cropsey and Harry Lewis, both of Brooklyn, Congressman F. H. LaGuardia and Justice Gustave Hartman of Manhattan, of whom only the two latter are said to be willing to make the fight. Four years ago Frank D. Waterman of fountain pen fame, was chosen to head the ticket as a representative business man, but the result was not encouraging for that kind of candidate. Not only is the Republican party unable to elect a Mayor of New York, but it is growing more and more difficult for it to elect Assemblymen and State Senators. The reason for this is that the party is not attracting new voters. The present leadership encourages in a small and exclusive party, where there is just enough patronage to go around among the leaders and their families and followers. The result is a discredited leadership, which cannot find a really strong candidate to run for Mayor, and must think of endorsing a former Democratic incumbent for that place. When the logical candidates for the party nomination announce that they are not running for Mayor, there is something rotten in local Republicanism A virile city organization is needed to redeem Republicanism from dry rot and decay. A NEEDED INSTITUTION One of the most pressing needs of Harlem is a detention home for young women, who through accident or delinquency are brought into the courts on some minor charge of misconduct. There should be a proper place provided, with home-like surroundings, for the shelter of girls over sixteen years of age, who at present are sent to the Workhouse for alleged prostitution or minor offences. Such institutions are provided by private philanthropy for white girls, but the only refuge for the colored offender of this stripe is the city institution, where she is thrown in contact with hardened inmates and her tendency toward evil ways is confirmed by new lessons in vice. The John R. Hegeman Home, in connection with the Katy Ferguson House, has for its mission, looking after girls under the age of sixteen, who are charged with delinquency or for whom a shelter is requisite until they may have an opportunity to be suitably located, with a view to their rehabilitation as normal members of society. A house to accommodate this institution was secured at New Rochelle a few years ago, but it had to be closed because the good people of that town would not allow its use for the purpose intended. It has therefore become necessary to sell that property and seek a new site where its work of mercy and relief may not fall under the ban of the local authorities. Another need is a permanent shelter for girls who come to New York from other places and find themselves stranded, without friends or money. Some of these cases are so urgent that the unfortunate victims of circumstances apply at the station house for relief where they are sent to the nearest newspaper office for information as to where they may find shelter. All these forms of distress are incident to life in a great city, and there should be some sort of provision made to meet such emergencies The evolution of a plan for the relief and shelter of girls and young women who have fallen into evil ways or merely met with misfortune, is one that should have an especial appeal for women's clubs. About a year ago it was suggested that the New York State Federation of Colored Women's Clubs should take over the Harriet Tubman Home at Auburn and utilize it for this kind of work. This property is located in an eligible section and could be readily disposed of for a fair price. The title to the THE NEW YORK AGE property is vested in the local churches of the A. M. E. Zion Connection, which find it difficult to fulfill the purpose intended. If it should be turned over to the State Federation and disposed of, the idea is that the proceeds might be utilized to establish the right kind of institution needed for the shelter and rehabilitation of errant girls and young women of the race, to be located within easy distance of this city. This is an urgent need, which could fitly be supplied through the active efforts of the various women's clubs of New York State. The delegates to the State Federation would do well to consider this proposition, with a view to making it part of their program. LABOR UNION POLICIES the recent appearance of President William Green, of the American Federation of Labor, before a large gathering of Negroes in Harlem, was significant. The present attitude of organized labor was declared by the speaker that the federation is committed absolutely to the cause of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Babies and that the "heart of the great labor organization as beating in sympathy with that of the colored workers." When asserted that the basic foundation of the A. F. of L., incorporated into a constitution since 1893, provides for the nomination of all barriers based on race, creed or nationality. This principle he said, had been incorporated into rules governing one hundred of labor unions, which owe allegiance to the Federation. Mr. Green read from a printed list of names of scores of affiliated unions who freely admit colored members. He stated that each union had a certain law of action which cannot be controlled by the parent body, just as in many of these there are children who rebel against parents' wishes. In such cases, weored workers are barred by some regular union, the A F of L takes the organization as separate union, declared that the porters in particular suffer a great injustice and the personal appearance in behalf of the Brotherhood should be sufficient, and those carping critics, who are attentive to impugn the attitude of the Fed in toward Negro labor. So far as the immediate result of interest taken by the national labor he the Brotherhood's demand is concerned, so close an observer of labor unions as John J. Leary, Jr. takes it note that there is no danger of a strife predicted that in the orderly process upon, the organization of the will be completed and an international set up within the federation, will then be in a position to give substantial support to the porters' movements, that support will be added, directly, directly, the influence of the railroads, which while not affiliated with the federation, usually work in concert with it. This interpretation of the situation found up with the conclusion that indeed it may be up to President Hoover decide whether or not the railroad is much provides for the appointment of emergency board when a railroad takes threats to another Jim Crow that means emergencies that arise when white railroad workers are killed." The recent appearance of President William Green, of the American Federation of Labor, before a large gathering of Negroes in Harlem, was significant as to the present attitude of organized labor. It was declared by the speaker that the Federation is committed absolutely to the cause of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters and that the "heart of the great labor organization is beating in sympathy with that of the colored workers." Mr. Green asserted that the basic foundation of the A. F. of L., incorporated into its constitution since 1893, provides for the elimination of all barriers based on race, color, creed or nationality. This principle, he said, had been incorporated into the rules governing one hundred of the 107 labor unions, which owe allegiance to the Federation. Mr Green read from a printed list the names of scores of affiliated unions which freely admit colored members. He admitted that each union had a certain liberty of action which cannot be controlled by the parent body. just as in many families there are children who rebel against the parents' wishes. In such cases, when colored workers are barred by some particular union, the A F of L takes them into the organization as separate unions. He declared that the porters in particular are suffering a great injustice and that his personal appearance in behalf of the Brotherhood should be sufficient answer to those carping critics, who are attempting to impugn the attitude of the Federation toward Negro labor. So far as the immediate result of the interest taken by the national labor head in the Brotherhood's demand is concerned, so close an observer of labor conditions as John J. Leary, Jr. takes it to denote that there is no danger of a strike. He predicted that in the orderly process agreed upon, the organization of the men will be completed and an international union set up within the federation, which will then be in a position to give substantial support to the porters' movement. To that support will be added, directly or indirectly, the influence of the railroad brotherhoods, which while not affiliated with the federation, usually work in concert with it. This interpretation of the situation wound up with the conclusion that in the end it may be up to President Hoover to decide whether or not the railroad law, which provides for the appointment of an emergency board when a railroad strike threatens its another Jim Crow law that means emergencies that arise only when white railroad workers are involved."

It was also announced that the connectional council by an overwhelming vote adopted a resolution condemning Prof Ira T. Bryant, secretary of the Sunday School Union at Nashville, "for taking the Sunday School literature intended for the instruction of the minds of the youth, and diverting it into propaganda literature against individuals with whom he may have personal quarrels or disagreements." The same resolution was adopted by the council of bishops in their session. This is altogether too light a punishment for an officer of the connection, if he is guilty of the charges brought against Prof Bryant, namely "diverting Sunday School literature to propaganda against individuals." Judging by the samples of the Young Allenite thyrt reached The Age office, propaganda was entirely too mild a term to fit the vitriolic accusations that the editor made against several of the Fathers of the Church. What was worse, the writer not only gave specifications of the crimes that he said had been committed by members of the bishopric, but avowed his readiness to submit his proof to any court, ecclesiastical or otherwise. In fact he defied the accused prelates to sue him for libel. Now, we agree that matter of this sort is not Sunday School literature, as that term is generally applied. If the readers of the Young Allenite read those articles and understood the nature of the charges made against certain of the bishops, they must have concluded that the Ten Commandments had lost their force as a rule for ecclesiastical guidance. The publication of the charges in a paper of that character was altogether out of place. Nevertheless THE AGE READERS' FORUM THE AGE READERS' FORUM Heywood Broun Writes About West Point Cadet Among the many articles and editorials written concerning the entering West Point as a cadet of Alonzo Soulleigh Parham of Chicago, named to that place by Congressman Oscar DePriest one of the most interesting was that written by Heywood Broun in his column, "It Seems To Me," appearing in the New York Telegram on Wednesday, July 3. It is a calm, dispassionate plea for fairplay for the lone black boy who is booked for four years of studs at the United States Military Academy where all the other cadets are Norsemen. It is noted that in the article the word "Negro" is not capitalized, but whether that is due to the Telegrams editorial policy or to Mr. Broun's idiosyncrasy does not appear. Mr. Broun's article reads as follows: the only change being the use of a capital N in spelling "Negro." Here's wishing the best of luck to Altono Souleigh Parham. It seems to me that this young Negro who has just matriculated at West Point will be called upon to exercise as high a degree of courage as any flier who ever crossed the ocean. To be sure he is not the first Negro to qualify for the United States Military Academy, but no member of his race has been at the point for more than ten years and, in the past, he has brilliant exception of the late Colonel young colored youths have had not the most part a difficult and unsuccessful time at the Academs. I think it is fair to say that all of them started from behind scratch. The lot of the Negro in a predominantly white college is usually hard and West Point is a singular to close corporation. Young Parham must make up his mind to stage his fight alone. He will room on his chances are that he will be unable to anything more than the coolest and most casual contacts with any of his fellows. Admiration for A Brave Man West Point has never been noted as a shrine of liberal feeling. But at the moment I have no desire to sound any note of criticism against what seems to me race prejudice. There's no point in my concealing the fact that I think the traditional attitude of the white man toward the Negro is wrongheaded and shortsighted. But let's not talk about the realize the depth of feeling on the white and its sincerity, too in many cases. At the moment I am trying to enlist for Cadet Alonzo Souleigh Parmam the admiration even of those who are against him. Man, white men would like to have all Negroes barred from West Point. Logically enough, this hope that this boy from Chertle will fail to make good. But I do not see how his bitterest enemy can deny that he is showing a high degree of fortitude in facing a perilous and punishing situation. Depend upon it. Mr. Parham knows what he is going up against. A young man intelligent enough to pass the difficult examination required of candidates for the Academy can hardly be a fool. Chicago knows its race barriers and its taboos as well as any city of the deep South. Alonzo Souleigh Parham has already felt the check rein which communities impose upon men of colored blood. Say, if you will, that it is a nerd. The Week of July 13 ASTROLOGICALLY CONSIDERED BY THEARCHER The birthdates of June 28, 29 and 30: July 2, 3. and 4 will receive a favorable vibration from Mars all this week. This aspect brings gain through travel, selling and selling, and through financial matters. The planet Mars is very rapid in its motion, and this aspect should be taken advantage of instantly. The 14th seems to be the best day here, and, although it is Sunday, many advantages will fall to these birthdates that will bring gain if used. Most of the opportunities will come through old friends and old matters. Promotion and honor come under this transtext. There is an aspect from Venus to Mars to financial expense and loss through and because of the opposite sex. Good judgment is necessary in all financial matters on this account. Neptune enters Virgo at the end of the month, and this transit will bring on a period that will see a great change in many born on June 22. This transit brings a spiritual awakening, the help of those who are in position of much more "IT SEEMS TO ME." By Heywood Broun the charges were made upon strong and unhesitating authority, and so far as we have seen they have never been met or answered. The publication of such resolutions as the one quoted above is no answer to the charges made by Prof. Bryant, as to misappropriation of church funds and other malfeasance in office. This scandal of the Young Allenite should be ended by a trial of the specific charges by a competent court and the punishment of the real offender, whether it be a certain bishop or Editor Bryant. lessary evil imposed for the good of all concerned, but there is not a single Negro in America who has not suffered for his skin. Accordingly, Alonzo Souleigh Parham, who has already felt the touch of iron on his soul, is prepared to go to the one place in all the world where the thrust will be deeper and the pain more intense. He will pass silent days, with comrades on every hand. All most like a ghost he will walk solitary down the long corridors. Upon the surface of things there is no hope of joy for him in his adventure. And set I venture to say that he will hold his head as high as any of the proudest Nordics. His purpose must be wider and deeper than that of the others in the 'Academy. He goes I feel certain, armed with the conviction that he is not truly solitary, for upon his shoulders rest the hopes and aspirations of a race The Friendly Phantom And if he walks alone there must be around him echoes of unnumbered footfalls. Even as a plebe he is general of a mighty host. Can't you hear the thud of those sands marching onward up from slaves? Those who do not like the Negro say that he has no stamina in the face of any crisis. When they call him inferior they must mean that in his own heart there lies an imposition and aspiration how can they say that of Alonso Parra? for that own free will he has come, like an Dulce, to face the judgment of the lions! Fortitude and grim determination are neither white nor brown, and so I do not see why every one of us should not unite in saying to the slim young black man, "Safe journeys over Jordan." What Right Have You—? "What right have you?" says R. I. D. of Washington, "to write about race problems? I up in New York you have no chance of wide contacts. Down here we know the Negro." But I would be the last to pretend that I "know the Negro." He is too numerous and too widely scattered. Indeed I doubt the validity of the statement, no matter who makes it. No man, white or black knows the Negro. At best the sociologist can assert that he knows his hundreds, or his thousands. The potentialities of the unknown are limitless as stars. For instance as I were to say "Through years of residence abroad I know the German." I still might fail lamentably in an interpretation of the character of Gnethe. Undoubtedly my young friend from Washington knows more members of the colored race than I have ever met, and yet in a discussion of race prejudice I still maintain that I have the advantage I happen to know a few Negroes all of the time, and any man knew all of Paul Robeson or Roland Haves plain and entire he could be much better equipped to say "the Negro is" and the Negro does "than one" who commanded every day the services of a million field hands. If you want to know which was a tree is going to keep your eyes on the topmost branches B. B. & C. I. Ry. Gangmen Down Tools The in-house in salaries for minimum subsistence being refused by the agent, the gangmen all over the line downed tools this week and the men seem determined to carry the fight to a finish, and are prepared to merge all sorts of hardships for their ranks until the last moment. Funds are needed to carry their struggle. sistance, and providential assistance in the time of need. This transit will be for about thirteen years, and this is one time that thirteen is not unlucky. The people of this date who can arouse the best in themselves will certainly get ahead. It will change the character, and modify the former abrupt and harsh manner that these people have had in the past. It gives them the ability to see themselves as they are, and the former abrupt and harsh character that are necessary. This paragraph could be kept and used for reference. Jupiter is transiting across the natal Sun of the b birthdates of May 28, 29, 30 and 31; June 1 and 2 all this week. The host day acceeds to be July 19. This aspect brings gain through in the matters, humor and joy in business, financial gain in business, and better health to the women of these dates. Jupiter will remain in the sign Gemini all the year, and this will be a year that will be full of opportunities for all the Birthdates. The veteran editor of the Cleveland Gussette, under the heading "Worse Than an Outrage," denounced an act of clemency by the Governor of Tennessee, as follows: Alfred Ward, Leroy Williams and E. J. Raspberry, president and principal officials who figured in the wreck of our Fraternal and Solvent Bank of Memphis in December, 1927, were paroled by Gov. Henry Horton of Tennessee, last week Wednesday. Ward, who was president of the band and who signed a confession that he had stolen more than $50,000 of the bank's funds, was serving a ten year sentence. Williams, cashier, and Raspberry, teller, were each serving five year sentences. Wayman Wilkerson, a vice-president, committed suicide following the bank crash. Court action is still pending against T H Hayes of Memphis, Dr. J. W. Albons, former cashier, and John L. Vancey, assistant cashier. The bank, which was one of the largest business institutions, issued its doors with impairment assets reaching more than million dollars, due, it said, to embezzlement on the parts of officials. "Not only did thousands of depositors lose their life-savings but another bank and several other business institutions were engulfed in the crash. Several hundred children who had participated in a savings project in the public schools also lost their money. State bank examiners say that it is very doubtful that depositors will get more than fifteen per cent when the affairs of the defunct bank are finally wound up. Editor Smith also quoted a Memphis race publication as denouncing the Governor's parole of "the brazen bank trot" who "robbed in the open day." The Tennessee executive probably does not favor the promotion of Negro barks With the injunction, "Don't Blame Brazil" the Baltimore Afro-American commented on the protest made by that country to Henry Ford against importing black Americans to work in his rubber plantation at Manaos, in the following strain White Americans have taken their precedence around the world race prejudice around the In France, a Haitian diplomat is refused admission to a cabaret because his color might offend the moneymed Americans. In Hawaii, mulattoes are welcomed but Negroes are not acceptable to the natives. One Brazilian newspaper says "The American Negro has not the mentality and moral characteristics of the Brazilian Negro" "There is no reason why we should open our frontiers without reserve the worst black unassimilable element of North America. Hospitality is beautiful, but it is more dangerous to accept a danger but persecuted, unhappy people. To Negroes of real value the gate is open but they are unwilling to leave the States" "Coming from a country nearly one third Negro where there is no color line, and where black men are eligible for any public office, this might sound strange." Yet if Brazil relied upon us for her conception of the average white man in the United States, it wouldn't give a far different picture. Brazil's only error lies in the guildishness with which it has swallowed the story of the Negro as told in the white press. If that story were faithful, accurate and fair even one of the 346 Negro newspapers in the United States would be forced out of business According to the Brooklyn Eagle, if Mr. Ford promised Brazil not to bring American workers to his concession field and did bring Negroes from the Barbados he broke no pledge. But he is said to have desisted from this evasion Dr. Troy Smith, in the Chicago White discourse on The Dangers of Being Fat without much regard for the feelings of his corpulent readers. He said among other things The fact that overweight or obese predisposes one to disease is no longer a question. One of the most common diseases that accompanies obesity is diabetis. It is estimated that there are between 500,000 and 1,000,000 diabetics in the United States. Most of these were fat before they became diabetics. Not only does obesity predispose to disease but fat handicaps the individual in his effort to get about and attend to his ordinary vocation. He becomes clumsy and awkward, short of breath, and his clothing costs him more not only as to the original cost but also as to the upkeep it lessens resistance to infections if a surgical operation becomes necessary, fat adds to the danger of the anaesthetic increases the mechanical difficulty of the operation and the likelihood of infection, blood pressure is increased. Life insurance companies view a fair individual as a poor risk and penalize him by adding to the premium rate. I understand that some companies add five per cent to the premium for each inch by which the waist line exceeds the girth of the chest. between May 22 to June 21 The success and gain will be comparative with the present mental and financial status. The readers who would like to know how to avoid some of these worries, and to know how to get ahead, should write to Thearcher in care of The New York Age, 230 West 135th street, New York City, and place must be given correctly. The birthdate, month, year, hour the hour of birth, or known the timing and the date of the month, should be written at the top of the letter. This paragraph and a stamped and self-addressed envelope should accompany the birth data. All communications are confidential. . saturday, July 6, 1829 Fat slows down mental processes. It was Caesar who said that he wished to have about him sleek, well led men, they were not dangerous, but he viewed Cassius with some suspicion, because he was a lean individual, and Caesar felt that lean men thought too much, i.e., their brains were more active than those of fat men. The modern craze for reducing weight is now explained, especially as these reasons doubtless apply to both sexes. A Washington special to the Norfolk Journal and Guide justified the action of Congressman Garber of Virginia, against the cruticism from white sources, because he successfully recommended the appointment of a Negro as postmaster for Blechem Albermarle county. It said: Congressman J A Garber Harrisonburg, Republican, has defended himself on the grounds that the names submitted to him by the postoffice department were of colored persons and Bleheim was "a colored settlement located four miles from Woodridge". Postoffice officials previously said that departmental records did not specify the race of the prospects. Garber likewise said the Albemarle County Republican committee endorsed Nightingale's name. Although he declared that when white were available, he would not recommend Negroes. Congressman Garber did not indicate any intention to withdraw his endorsement of Mr. Nightingale. Exports have stated that Nightingale is the first Negro postmaster in Virginia within a quarter of a century. Garber claims his predecessor. Representative Harrison, Democrat named a Negro to the same position in December, 1924 Bleichm's postoffice is small, fourth class. has been shut down for lack of satisfactory postmasters, and only reopened June 1 This sounds like a case of much ado over little or nothing. except that the title of Postmaster may sound too exalted in the ears of Virginia whites, to be shared with the darker races. Referring to the turning in of their charters by colored members of nine troops of Boy Scouts in Philadelphia, because of segregation at a summer camp, the Boston (chronicle said. It would seem that the Boy Scouts of America, designed primarily for the moral uplift of adolescent boys, could have no higher aim than the eradication of race prejudice, which is responsible for so many American evils Race prejudice is not, as some uneducated fanatics on the race question allege, a congenital impulse in man its growth is due to environmental factors and environment. Thus the descendant of a Northern abolitionist, brought up among the benighted crackers to Georgia and taught to hate the sight of Negroes, will be as rabid a Negrophobe as a native Georgian born two hundred feet from the scene of a lynching-bee. Likewise, a cracker baby, given the chance of acquiring civilization, ablits its ancestors have for four generations their ancestors holders will grow up with the love for the Negro and will join the N. A. A. C. F. It is the task of the Boy Scouts of America to inculcate in the impassionable adolescents the importance of humanity and all the other ideals of the organizations, which is associated with the love of humanity, make for virtue but, if not, make for hypersyry That is an analysis of racial prejudice, which the promoters of the Scout organization should be made to study and absorb The Oklahoma City Block Patch not long ago printed a news of how the Mayor of Dallas refused to welcome a million dollar height of Pythias lodge, but changed his mind after a bit. It began This is a story of what money can do for you, if you know how to use it. It seems everybody in as knew that the grand lodge of knights of Dothas and court of Calanthe was a million dollars in organization except Mayer L. Addison Tate Mayor Tate was, recently elected after a campaign, which he passed out hot dog buns. It is just possible of course that a man who passes around his dog can not visualize a million anyway. When the Rev. W. L. Dickson an officer of the Pothians sent to Mayor Tate's office to invite him to make an address of welcome to the forty-fifth annual session of the state grand lodge here June 11, the good mayor said curtly, "I won't speak to your invitation that's all there is to me." Rude mayor was not known that Rev Dickson was representing an organization worth a million dollars no jitter; either, as the strangest Now the Pothams of Texas are rather a smart crowd. They know something. So they went to the Dallas Times-Herald and bought a half-page advertisement to be in the Sunday morning paper telling about their lodge conversation. The publicity that followed with interviews from leading merchants criticizing the Mayor's snubbing of the grand lodge, caused a consideration of his refusal. While he did not appear in person, he wrote out a welcome address and sent it to read at the session. At the same time he sent a statement to the newspapers that he had been ill and had to go to Mineral Wells for a few days rest, and that he had always been a friend of Negroes etc. So it seems that money tells, even CHURCH AND RELIGIOUS ACTIVITIES Grace Church of Harlem A large number of worshippers took advantage of the beautiful Sabbath morning to attend the communion service at Grace Congregational Church on Sunday morning. Dr. Garner the pastor, was in the pulpit and preached a most heartfelt and helpful message, asking his subservient to the hour conch and from John 4th, part of 10th day. Dr. Carreras sermon showed that he had given the subject careful thought about it, careful attention to it that we so often go looking for God in all sorts of high and lofty places when He is right at hand to help us have to call on Him time of need and He is right with us always willing to help. Communion was served to a large number of the congregation. The church was well represented and sang together with feeling from Frank B. Reed was the solos at the morning service. Rev Ambrose B. Smith of Washington secretary of the Howard University Alumni, was a visitor on Sunday morning, and after being introduced by the pastor, made a brief introduction. The communion was served at the evening service and was in charge of the pastor and the Deacons. Church school convened at 9:15 and the Gracondis Club at 2:30 m.

St. Cyprian's Chapel The holy communion service held at 8 a.m., was well attended by many communicants who were going out of town for the day, to the church of Rev. Johnson to them, several months ago that he thought it the proper thing, if they must go before the morning service, that they should attend this service, has been well received. The preacher at the 11 a.m. m. service, the Rev. Harold McClean, who took his text from the 10th verse, 5th chapter of St. Matthew: "We are the salt of the earth, but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? It is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be trodden under foot of men." Rev. McClean will preach again Sunday night, July 14, at the 8 p.m. service. Rev. McClean administered the Holy Communion at this service, assisted by the Rev. the Rev. John Westley Johnson. The Rev. John Howard Johnson, star at St Martin's Chapel, located at 122nd street and Lenox avenue, will deliver the sermon at 11 a.m. service and his father, our year, will preach at St Martin's, exchanging pulpits for the morning with his son. The Daily Bible School has been opened here as usual and has a remarkably large attendance. Henry Pleasant, one of our tenors, will be present to pay boy or male choir under auspices of the Brotherhood of St Andrew, and invites any young man or boy to join this choir and receive a free musical education. But popular request there will be students leave 113th street and Lenox avenue at 124th for our outing at Rockaway Beach.

We call it the your attention, so that you speak about your old home sections, of the city with which you accept the blessing which the Lord has showered on you, when prayed from these sections, with both Him, and with our old neighborhood which we many pleasant recollections memories. St. James Pres. Church Patriotism was the keynote of the church on last Sunday morning. The address by Dr. William Lloyd imes on "The Church and True Patriotism" was preceded by the presentation of a silk American flag to the North Harlem Community Council, a local community council of New York City by J. Kirkland Clarke, president. The presentation speech by Mr. Clarke was interesting, highly illuminating and much appreciated by the large congregation present, despite the oppressive heat. Acceptance of the flag for North Harlem was made by James Middleton, a seasessionist, who was reserved for members of the North Harlem Council, who were present in a body seated on the rostrum were the following visitors: J. Kirkland Clark, president of the Community Councils of New York City, Mrs Helen Manning, chairman of the Housing Commission, of North Harlem City Mrs John B. Douglas, chairman Civie Committee, North Harlem Community Council; James B. Middleton, president North Harlem Community Council; Dr. H. L. McCrosey, president of Johnson C.

In the evening Dr. Ims' address with a rapid survey of "Some Significant New Books about the Bible." St. Paul Baptist Church We are in the heat of mid summer, and as usual, quite a number of our members are out of the city, still the church is carrying on. Not only are the presidents attended in the cooler weather, are kept up just the same. The week past was marked by an unusual event. On July 4th, the Committee on Working Churches of the N. Y. W. B., Convention Hall, with the women out to perform, with the pastor preaching the sermon to them at night. Though the weather was warm, and it was a holiday, yet the women were out in goodly numbers, and they held enthusiastic services, both afternoon and evening, the charge on "Prayer For The Progress Of The Gospel" Sunday morning the congregation on God's Encouragement to His Working Church In the evening, Rev W H. A. Bakee the pastor's son brought a helpful message. The different organizations of the church made additional reports to the rally, which swelled the total amount away beyond what it was the previous Sunday. For this the church and the pastor are very thankful. The pastor is to have a vacation, beginning August 1, and the officers are preparing to have him go without feeling alone. The pastor Turner emphasized this fact morning and evening. The pastor was in Yonkers night to preach the 13th anniversary sermon of the pastorate of Dr. Church. The people received him royally, and he had a splendid time. Mrs. Elizabeth Cross is very sick, and the church did what it could, by way of helping brother Cross and his wife financially. Mrs. Elizabeth morning service is the death of Mr. Leedee, husband of Mrs. Elizabeth Leedee. Mt. Olivet Baptist Church On Tuesday evening, June 2, the Girl's Culture Club celebrated its first anniversary with a reception. Each member had the privilege of bringing a guest, a special guest, invited, those who attended were Mrs. Beatrice Jones, Mrs. Maggie Miner, Deacon Benefield, Mrs. J. Hubbard Adams, Allen Payne, J. Solomon, Walter White, Duncan Bourne, Ms. M. S. Duncan, Ms. Willie Mayes, Richard Krbry, Ms. W. Indiana Washington A telegram was received from Mrs. Josephine Hail, expressing congratulations; later, there was a message from Rev. W. L. Ime, with congratulations and regrets on account of the time. There were musical numbers, rendered by Richard Kerry and Miss Gladys L. Freeman; words of encouragement and advice from Dearon Benedict The record of the club was then given by the club. Mr. Kerry also wrote The membership includes three Catholices, four Presbyterians, one Lutheran, Methodists and Baptists. Three have joined this church since they became members of the club There are two honorary members, eight singers, five who sew, three who embroider, one who draws, two who write, four dramatic speakers, and others with various domestic abilities. One member was lost by death For its Sunshine Service they attended the funeral of the Katy Dyngman Home and rendered programs and left donations, twice, helped on social uplift programs at Myrtle Anderson Home and the studio of Dr. Julia P. Holeman and sent letters to the church in Florida. They gave to the trustees on the Building Rund $76.80 (moss) Among the many visitors were He is now the pastor of church WHERE TO GO TO CHURCH WHERE TO GO TO CHURCH --- no means of raising money, only through club work and ticket sales.) There are four club mothers, two of whom are active and faithful, Mrs Karby and Mrs Boyd. Following the reading of the record, there were amusing recreational exercises, then the grandmother took the dining room where the tables were arranged in barque quiet style, and everyone enjoyed a delicious repast of ice cream, home made cake and fruit punch. During this time the club girls echeered all those who helped them in any way. Lila Althea Coleman is organizer and sponsor. Regardless of the extremely hot weather, the morning service of Mr Olivet Church was well attended Sunday, July 7. The pastor's text was warm and kindness is better than life, my lips shall praise them. Subject "God's loving kindness." Some of the outstanding points in his discourse were that God is love and life; that everything clings to life; that the mind of man has a world of knowledge; that the world is a whispering gallery and a giant neighborhood, that the lowly kindness of God is breaking down prejudice, hatred, transforming lives and will eventually make the nations, use the Golden Rule. He also emphasized the benefits of the Gospel, that the sermon was a great message, powerful and inspiring. It was announced that Rev I. R. Henderson, the former assistant pastor, will fill the pulpit the balance of the month of July and will, when the pastor takes a vacation.

We would three times a day we were depositing much money in the heavenly bank. When you need money from the bank then God hears and answers prayers which is the treasure we have laid up.

Subject: Jesus as a teacher, preacher and Physician. As teacher he gave several examples of teaching in synagogue, as physician he taught the lady with the issue of blood, as preacher, he used the synagogue.

Connie Rector pitched the local team to a 9-2 victory in the first game, but Baltimore made a strong comeback and won the other by a score of 7-4. Rector fired the Sox scoreless until the last inning in his game. Home runs by Rapp Dixon and Dick Lundy accounted for the victory two runs. Six scattered hits were at the Baltimore could gather aces 10 off Ryar and Leo to the local team. George Cakes hit a home run in the third base. Smiths singed a already scored Melton and these two runs drove Red. Ryar to the showers. The Lincoln played bitters well behind Bolt Holland in the second game although several bad breaks for the local team added the visitors. Twice during the game balls were hit into deep centerfield that looked to be home runs but they hit trees and bounded back on the field or in the bleachers. One of these was by Smith, who later made a hunch that went so far above the trees he was no question about it. The Basharach Coasts will be the attraction at the last test for Sunday, July 14.

With the music for the next week's show at the Lafayette Theatre. The Hawai'i Nightlife is the title of the fastest funnest and most beautiful musical concert, presetation that graced a local stage in six months. Too much credit cannot be given to Addison Carey for the latest revue. In idea at a gala night on the beaches of Hawaii he carried out faithfully and splendidly. The native musicians in the moving seat the hula girls and the "primal entertainer" of whom there are some thirty, kept the gibbon and happy. Wilbur Sweatman and his company are the featured act in the revue. This popular entertainer—he the greatest colored clarinet player—has not been seen in Harlem for some four years. He and his little company, received a royal welcome when they were introduced by Bob Williams. Sweatman is certainly a master musician. He plays both the clarinet and the saxophone in his early one out of his seat. Then (and we have never seen this before) he plays three clarinets at once, drawing from them the most exquisite music.

As a singing water in a New York night club, and later as master of ceremonies in the guest of the city's cabarets, Johan is seen as a man almost beaten down by the heavy hand of tragedy, following a beginning that seemed to promise him every human joy.

BUTLER Serious and Advanced Students PIANC, HARMONY THEORY, COMPOSITION HAPPENINGS IN THE REALM OF MUSIC ACTIVITIES AMONG UNION MUSICIANS By PERCIVAL OUTRAM "Bomboola," not unlike other colored shows financed by white capital, has had its series of heart aches and acrimonious verbal exchanges. Several changes were made in the personnel of the orchestra, and then came the changing of directors. Allie Ross has replaced Lieut. Tim Brynn as conductor of the orchestra of "Bomboola." Tim originally was also the arranger of the music, and the first complaint launched against the lieutenant was the alleged half-hearted arrangement of the music. Apparently, unfortunately for Tim the local "Blackbirds" folded their wings finally, so to speak, and Ross, who had conducted and whipped into shape two orchestras for the first and second companies of "Blackbirds," was free and untrammelled. You no doubt recall that "Blackbirds" No. 1 is now the rage in Paris under the baton of that skillful violinist, Felix Weir Ross, it is said, had refused the offer of going to Paris with the show. Thus it was Ross was engaged. Three white arrangements were consigned to rearrange the music and Tim's arrangements were discarded. This necessitated rehearsals and a temporary suspension of the show. Those musicians who have been dispensed with have filed charges at the Union against Hughie Walker, the musical contractor for "Bomboola," for rehearsal money of the show. Paris, a deposed trumpet player, has secured judgment for about $30. Apparently, Paris is dissatisfied with the meagre amount, as his claim was for over $100, including a week's salary as well as rehearsal money. Paris intends, therefore, to take his case before the International Board for readjustment. Lieut Tim Brymn, who was not hired by the musical contractor, but by the promoter of "Bombboola," expresses complete satisfaction to the terms arranged for closing his connection with the show. These terms were negotiated without appeal of either part to Local R02 The last of the group of theatres operated by Mr Schiffman of the Lafayette Theatre has ousted its musicians. Yes, the Odeon Theatre will have the doubtful distinction of being the last theatre, in Harlem of putting its race musicians out and installing the mechanical device. There were only four men. But four men are added to the group of mostly idling Harlem musicians who are competing and underbiding each other, when the occasion arises, and striving to make a living at the only thing they know to bring them a living wage. Science has undoubtedly made the world a better place to live. But and majority of musicians necessarily or applaud an invention that abruptly knocks them off their pedestal into the slough of despond. A readjustment of conditions is bound to take place, argues the optimist. Yes grows the comic, while the grass is growing. Have you noticed that a music typewriter has been invented? Did you get the euphony of its name? Signor Ferretto of Milan a music maestro, has succeeded after years of study, in inventing a typewriter for composing music Ferretto calls his typewriter a "dactylomusicograph" Have patience and you will get it. Allie Ross, chairman. Hugh Davis, Bullock and Harry Hull constituting the committee formed at the behest of Chairman Cana van of Local 802 to adjust the mix up caused by the orchestra of "Blackbirds" lately closed local work; working in a non-contracting house underprice, has succeeded in getting the case placed in abavance The committee put up a forcible and strenuous fight against the underprive charge, daiming that contributory negligence on the part of the local was clearly apparent, in that weekly for four weeks the local accepted money and issued receipts for two per cent of the salary of the "Blackbirds" orchestra without question, that Ross, as conductor of the orchestra, should have been told that the amount accepted and paid into the local weekly by him was not what is shown and was been used to fight mechanical devices used in the剧院. The two per cent tax is leaped on the weekly, salary of every musician working in a theatre and is used to fight mechanical devices used in the剧院. Question was also raised as to jurisdiction of Local 802 in disciplining any of the orchestra who had been on the road with the show. Some new men had been put in the orchestra when "Blackbirds" No 2 opened here. It is alleged that a letter was mailed to Lew Leslie, producer of "Blackbirds," now in Paris, request his appearance for questioning as touching salaries, etc., at the Union on his return to this port. And thus stands the matter, in abeyance, as before stated. Paul Creagh has removed his studio to 26 West 118th street. JANE HUNTER: The Result Getter By NANNIE H. BURROUGHS It reminds me of the Washington onment—this Philas Wheatley—built by Jane Hunter at Cleveland, Ohio. It is simple in its majestic beauty. It towers above its sur roundings. It makes you look up to it, can be burnt up or burnt down, not will it fall down until there is a wreck of matter and a crash of worlds—until Shiloh comes Jane Hunter has built as permanently as did her fathers who built the pyramids yonder in the land of the Nile. Strange, too, that this thing of brick and mortar should be so spiritual in its significance and ministration. The Philas Wheatley is built to build—to build character through helpful cooperation — it builds understanding, sympathy, love protection, health, industry, happiness, and good will. Thirty-eight thousand and girls entered its doors last year, to sleep, eat, work, get work, get advice, get aid, get a new start, get spirit and have their hopes renewed. They got what they came for. The doors of The Phillis Wheatley Association, like the gates of Glory, are never shut by day nor night, and whoever will may come. No woman in the world has done so big and permanent a piece of work in so short a time as has Jane Hunter of Cleveland, Ohio. She interracial Commissions send for her to come and show Negroes and white people how to provide protection and training for the streets of Negro women and girls who are walking the streets of our cities looking for work, friends, and society protection Jane Hunter is a wizard at the game. She finds the way to the hearts of people through service. She goes down where the needs are greatest and the problem is acute. Hats off to Jane Hunter humanitarian, unostept. The public servant result gets better. Washington, D.C. Negro Retailers Cooperate (From Southern Workman) ... Recently in Montgomery Aha, a small group of grocers, hard pressed by chain store competition, decided to do their buying collectively and to advertise as a group They formed the Colored Merchants Association Their stores are now known as the C. M. A. Stores, and their joint advertising appears regularly in Montgomery newspapers. Orders are pooled and buying is done through the office of the association for each store in the membership. This movement, born of necessity in harming a business with modern "business" improvement in appearance and service of the C. M. A Stores, and through its success has stimulated the Negro merchants of the city. An outgrowth of the venture in modern methods was the campaign for better business held April 15 in Winston-Salem, N.C. conducted by the National Business League and by Winston-Salem local league, the recently formed Colored Merchants Association of Winston-Salem. The program of this campaign included the organization of the local Negro grocers into a cooperative buying association. A central feature was the set up of a modern grocery store. The store of James A. Ellington was selected for remodeling under plans and specifications thoroughly up-to-date, and an demonstration in store renovation and arrangement and in showing the public what could be expected of C M A Stores this practical aspect of the campaign was most important. The model store opened on Saturday morning. By night in shelves were entirely cleared on goods Under the impetus of this success others of the twenty-s charter members of the Winston Salem C M A Stores are planning to remodel their premises Through lectures the older school boys and girls, the housewives, the business men were reached and the public addresses of Dr R R Moton, president of the National Negro Business League and of Dr Gortoli James of the U S Department of Commerce attracted wide attention. Thus the buying public was made ready to take advantage of whatever of values and service the M A Stores might offer; the M A Stores the talks to the grocers themselves; the management merchandise display, verifying cooperative buying and record keeping, coupled with the demonstration store, so balanced the campaign that resulting stimulation of business means more than temporary gain. That the results of this concrete work, planned and directed by Albion L. Holsey, secretary of the National Negro Business League, will have far-reaching consequences there can be no doubt. It is a movement which bids fair to put courage, better business methods, and prosperity within the reach of Negro retailers throughout the South, offering at the same time courtesy, fresh goods clean stores, and attractive prices to patrons of Negro business Please have your news items in by Tuesday morning of each week. Articles reaching the office later than Tuesday, will appear in the following week's issue. THE NEW YORK AGE WEEKLY NOTES FROM INDIA By The Age Special Correspondent Lord Olivier's Latest Lord Olivier seems to know more about the bonfire incident at Calcutta than the people on the spot. Asked as to whether Mahatama Gandi's arrest presupposed promulgation of a new policy of repression, his lordship coolly assured the interviewer that "it was only a matter of police routine," and that it would possibly end in nothing more than a fine of Rs. 50 for the Mahatama. Unlike his lordship, we are not, of course, privileged to anticipate the judgment, but we cannot help pointing out that the attitude of the police authorities with regard to the bon- fire seems to be much more than a mere matter of routine, as the same order has been repeated at Delhi too. Other departments of the Government, besides the Police, appear to have felt the same inspiring touch. That the telegraph department refused to transmit Mr Subas Chandra Bose's message to the District Congress Committees asking them to start the boycott propaganda and burn foreign cloth will possibly be explained away as a matter of routine. But all these different matters of routine put together do look like an organic whole with a policy be- hind.

Other departments of the Government, besides the Police, appear to have felt the same inspiring touch. That the telegraph department refused to transmit Mr Subas Chandra Bose's message to the District Congress Committees asking them to start the boycott propaganda and burn foreign cloth will possibly be explained away as a matter of routine.

New Telephone Books For Manhattan, Bronx Approximately 1,400,000 copies of the summer issue of the Manhattan telephone directory are now being delivered in New York City by the New York Telephone Company This summer, for the first time, subscribers in Manhattan and the Bronx are listed separately, and a book is being sent out for each area. Plans call for completion of the delivery in Manhattan by June 27. Both the constantly shifting nature of New York's population, the most concentrated population in the world, are reflected in the new book. This time about 1,400,000 directories—approximately 70,000 more than were delivered six months ago—are placed in hands of subterranean locations indicated by the New Yorkers more about is seen in the fact that 21,141 changes in names, telephone numbers or addresses were necessary before the approximately 500,000 listings in the new book could be printed. These changes, involving about 40 per cent of the total number of listings in the 1,240 pages of the book, were caused by the removal of subscribers to new quarters, discongestion of telephones and transfers of telephone lie from the central office to another. This summer the Manhattan and the Bronx books combined have a total of 1,720 pages, compared with the 1,620 pages of the combination book issued last December. It is estimated that the new issue of the Manhattan directory contains approximately 90,000 new pages. Telephone growth with the resultant enrichment of new centers of service in Manhattan has added several new central office designations to the list of central office names printed in the information pages of the new book "Hitchcock, "Fitzroy" and "Digby" have been assigned to certain telephones in the financial district, and "Volunteer" now designates some telephone in the East midtown section. Because of the immensity of the job, some subscribers will receive the delivery in the whole of Manhattan, taking only nine days.

HOGANS EMPHASIZING THE TIP --- The outstanding feature of President address on Negro labor, so far as it relates to disposition to emphasize the tip question selected the tip as the weapon with which plant. And, it is needless to deny, he was the intrepidity of a Spagatan. Nevertheless, was a frail weapon to use. After years of experience among empliers of personal service, the opinion is firmly amputs to argue the question of tips and conditions for employees of the tip-taking building an unstable implement. We never as yet been privileged to meet a curiously desired the abolition of gratuities. It's natural, to be sure, for every so much pay as he can get.

Yet, none is likely to consent to the abolition of the hotel owners know this, and so do the rains that to abolish tipping would make their least The patrons of these services are.

Yet, none of these employees consent to the abolition of tipping in the know this, and so do the railroad managers with tipping would make their service, meche the patrons of these services also know it. Instance of this, we offer some extracts from should Tips Be Abolished and Higher Wages, financial writer, in the Chicago Here is nearly a year old, but it will service the sort said: The outstanding feature of President William Green's Harlem address on Negro labor, so far as it related to Pullman porters, was his disposition to emphasise the tip question. In fact, the labor chief selected the tip as the weapon with which to attack the Pullman giant. And, it is needless to deny, he wielded the implement with the intrepidity of a Spartan. Nevertheless, the belief here is that it was a frail weapon to use. After years of experience among employees of nearly every class of personal service, the opinion is firmly held that anyone who attempts to argue the question of tips and the betterment of working conditions for employees of the tip-taking class in the same breath is wielding an unstable implement. We think this because we have never as yet been privileged to meet a member of this class who correctly desired the abolition of gratuities. It's natural, to be sure, for every sort of worker to want as much pay as he can get. That is a normal desire. And it follows, as surely as night follows day, that any movement designed to promote or obtain these things for him is going to get his ear. Circumstances may compel him to withhold two ears, but he certainly will risk one. It also follows that where tips are concerned, where they are a constituent element of emolument, every employee of the personal service class is about the same in his wants. He wants more pay and he wants better working conditions, but he likewise wants the tip. Fake, for examples the hotel porter, waiter and the dining car waiter. In the East these workers are paid fairly good wages; in fact what is called a living wage. Yet, none of these employees would be likely to consent to the abolition of tipping in their work. The hotel owners know this, and so do the railroad managers. They know that to abolish tipping would make their service, mechanical, to say the least. The patrons of these services also know it. For an instance of this, we offer some extracts from an article entitled, "Should Tips Be Abolished and Higher Wages Paid?" by B.C. Forbes, financial writer, in the Chicago Herald-Examiner. The article is nearly a year old, but it will service the purpose. The finance expert said: "Should all tipping be abolished? "One's first impulse is to reply emphatically. "The other day I walked into the dinnery and asked if I could have something to eat. Lunch isn't ready." I told him I would wait was ready. He walked away and up to a charge. He also told me that lunch was claimed that I would be glad to have anythings. He repeated rather gruffly, "Lunch is ready the announcement will be made asked him if I couldn't have a cup of tea not statement and walked away. "Knowing the president of this railroad talks about the unfailing courtesy practise in account of the little incident and asked me to see that the statements I made were in and happened." first impulse is to reply emphatically, "Yes, after day I walked into the dining car of a train I could have something to eat. The color ready." I told him I would be glad to be ready. He walked away and up came the (w) He also told me that lunch wasn't ready, and I would be glad to have anything. Created rather gruffly, "Lunch isn't ready, and the announcement will be made through the mail if I couldn't have a cup of tea, but he repeat statement and walked away ing the president of this railroad, and how the unfailing courtesy practiced on his line of the little incident and asked the steward of the statements I made were in exact accord. "One's first impulse is to reply emphatically, "Yess." But let's see "The other day, I walked into the dining car of a train about 11:30 and asked if I could have something to eat. The colored waiter said, "Lunch isn't ready." I told him I would be glad to have anything that was ready. He walked away and up came the (white) steward in charge. He also told me that lunch wasn't ready, and a again explained that I would be glad to have anything. "He repeated rather gruffly, "Lunch isn't ready, and added, "When it is ready the announcement will be made through the train. I next asked him if I couldn't have a cup o' itea, but he repeated his lunch not ready statement and walked away. "Knowing the president of this railroad, and how confidently he talks about the unfailing courteous practiced on his line, I wrote out an account of the little incident and asked the steward to read it over to see that the statements I made were in exact accordance with what had happened. "As first he was inclined to be defiant. by he came back and said he wanted to not to send the letter. I told him that I did awards customers did either him or the railroad that he should not have acted the way he did lesson to him to be more careful in the letter. What this to do with the whole question of bias: I have found, and doubtless you have are being made to earn a tip, the service us or very good, whereas the attitude of man in the tip-earning class often is indifferent to true that most workers who know their job ordering to results? As a matter of fact, pearly heard womenfolk declare that they usually sales clerks receive a commissioner, the attuity to please, whereas, in too many stores who might wages the attitude is one of indifferent the question arises whether customers would treatment were the tipping of Pullman porters room for plenty of difference of opinion. That would be for us to be treated right everywhere, without having to bestow a tip, something un-American, something savoring of living tips. But at this stage of human nature much to look for ideal service from certify paying a dime or a quarter or a dollar ring it? Whether, if we didn't have to pay tips we would to meet higher wages." What Mr. Forbes said about the subject is what givest every railroad and every hotel the question of tips is a weak discourse to o promoting something else. Butter of truth, in the porter's case, this quies smoke screen for the real issue Of course, of this column That's a matter between its porters, or as is claimed, the 8000 of this life, every fairminded person will have to conceive that the tip is a personal-thing, and that not this class of service, should have to depend On the other hand, there isn't a corpo doesn't take advantage of the custom. In a company it's difficult to see how it can be cene of this custom any more than any other and if one begins censuring them all, the address, for fear of being misunderstood, we reelfall of Pullman porters is no concern of ours experience among them, we are convinced thatation of the tip. To he swerved from this are assurances than have heretofore been off the writer has come in contact and those w principal line of attack. Another thought comes' This line of attack the method of feeling on Pullman cars, if it isn't contemplate the result, or better st "By and by he came back and said he wanted to apologize and asked me not to send the letter. I told him that I didn't think his attitude towards customers did either him or the railroad credit. He admitted that he should not have acted the way he did and said it would be a lesson to him to be more careful in the future. So, I tore up the letter. "What has this to do with the whole question of tipping?" "Just this: I have found, and doubtless you have found, that where efforts are being made to earn a tip, the service usually is either fairly good or very good, whereas the attitude of many employees who are not in the tip-earning class often is indifferent, not to say high-handed. "Isn't it true that most workers who know their job well like to be paid according to results? As a matter of fact, piece-work has become extremely common. "I have heard womenfolk declare that they usually can tell a store where the sales clerks receive a commissioner, the attitude there is one of anxiety to please, whereas, in too many stores where the clerks we paid straight wages the attitude is one of indifference." Now, the question arises whether customers would receive more agreeable treatment were the tipping of Pullman porters forbidden. There is room for plenty of difference of opinion. The ideal thing, of course, would be for us to be treated right everywhere and under all circumstances, without ever having to bestow a tip, for, after all, there is something un-American, something savoring of caste in giving and receiving tips. But at this stage of human nature is it not expecting too much to look for ideal service from certain classes of workers without paying a dime or a quarter or a dollar more to make sure of getting it? Remember, if we didn't have to pay tips we would have to pay more in order to meet higher wages." Now, what Mr. Forbes said about the subject is what every traveller knows, and what every railroad and every hotel corporation knows. So, the question of tips is a weak discourse to offer as an argument for promoting something else. As a matter of truth, in the porter's case, this question is only used as a smoke screen for the real issue. Of course, that issue is not any affair of this column. That's a matter between the Pullman company and its porters, or as is claimed, the 8000 of them. Of course, every fairminded person will have to concede the labor man point, that the tip is a personal thing, and that no employee, no matter what his class of service, should have to depend on tips as his wage payment. On the other hand, there isn't a corporation or employee who doesn't take advantage of the custom. In singing out the Pullman Company it's difficult to see how it can be censured for taking advantage of this custom any more than any other corporation or employer. And if one begins censuring them all, the condemnation would be endless. However, for fear of being misunderstood, we repeat, the real object in behalf of Pullman porters is no concern of ours, but with our years of experience among them, we are convinced that this object is not the abolition of the tip. To be swerved from this conviction, it will take more assurances than have heretofore been offered by those with whom the writer has come in contact and those who make the subject their principal line of attack. Finally, another thought comes. This line of attack is likely to tear fruit in the method of feeling on Pullman cars, if it ever should—well just let's not contemplate the result, or better still—the catastrophe. P. P.

Reed of Lexington, Ky., and Ossian Sweet of Detroit The DePriest Incident (From The New York World) To the Editor of The World. Perhaps you would be able and willing to find room for comment from another bishop upon the De Preset incident - Having been Bishop of Arkansas for years and having shared the utterly unChristian views of the distressed aristocrats who are now attacking Mrs. Hoover, I do not feel like denouncing them: nevertheless, their outbursts should be analyzed for what they really are, not a mere missing of the point they erect the meaning of White House luncheon but an illustration of the dire ignorance and cruelty of America's white terror. It is all very well to point out that no issue of social equality between the races was involved in Mrs. Hoover's action, but if such an issue were involved the protest would not be more defensible. If we were to grant that the First Lady of the land may officially as a political act entertain at a group luncheon the wives of all Illinois Congressmen regardless of the race, but that the may not unofficially act invite an individual Negro woman to a luncheon, the situation, as far as America is concerned, would be quite as bad as it to-day. If the Christian churches had been in the highest 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 not because of any harm which the subject race had done to it but simply to maintain an economic advantage and satisfy its own sense of race superiority. The race superiority its adversary as being in every way compatible with Christian culture, if not indeed an important aspect, of it Now, I do not blame a savage for being a savage. I wished merely to point out that they are savages as to the drawing of race distinctions I was a savage myself while I was Bishop of Arkansas. I believed any one 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 and social opportunities to which we, by virtue of those sacred white pigments, were logically entitled. It took Karl Marx an atheist, to bring me into a knowledge of Christ. The church pandered to my prejudices even to such a baseless prejudice as the belief that there was something inherently superior in the color of my skin. Marx showed me that the great struggle for human liberty which the greatest of all dramas, the story of Jesus, symbolizes made it necessary for me to abandon my race prejudices. Until these savage prejudices are allayed there is little hope for human advancement. Although I do not share President Hoover's political views I think that every one, who wants to see America redeemed from savagery may well congratulate him and Mrs. Hoower for doing as they did. There was nothing noble about their action. It was simply sane, and sanity is America's greatest need Perhaps, as many of their defenders have suggested, the Hoowers have no interest in the principles of human equality I hope this is not true, but, anyhow, it is evident that they are not obsessed as most white politicians are with a desire to pander to all the traditions of savagery. They might, if they had wished have given Mrs. D. Priest a gratuitous insult by invigiling all the other wives of Illinois Congressmen and excepting her. But there was no sense reason why they should WILLIAM M BROWN Galton, O., June 26 Dr. Bragg's Views On Former Bishop Brown Editor of The New York Age I was genuinely glad in reading your editorial on former Bishop Brown. I have all along cherished a profound sympathy for him, with respect to his ecclesiastical troubles. I rejoice over his "conversion" Two definite good things. I always remember of him. Although an adversary, that is with respect to our plan of the adjustment of the racial escape he was at all time frank and out-spoken. Much correspondence, and a number of inter- views took place between us. He was not only frank with respect to his own views, but equally so in his interpretation of the real sentiment in the House of Bishops with respect to our proposition. I possibly more than any one else, I was responsible for his offering to the Rev. George. Alexander McGurre the post of archdeacon in his diocese. It is in this connection that we cherish a special regard for the man. He said, in substance, I have determined to appoint a Negro priest archdeacon for the colored work in my diocese, and I am disposed to make him as much of a "Bishop" as it is possible for one not possessing an episcopal office. But, said he, I want to place the responsibility of selecting the man upon some of the best known, and influential colored priests. I pledge you that I will appoint the person they recommend. He kept his word inviolate. I arranged a conference of such priests, who met in the rectory of St. Luke's Church, Washington. Former Bishop Brown appeared before them, made his statement, and then withdrew. After a conference upon the matter, we unanimously recommended the Rev. George Alexander McGuire, then rector of St. Thomas Church, Philadelphia. The thing that I magnify is his sincere disposition to honor the self-expression of the Negro priesthood. It has not always been the case that the appointing power has industriously sought to interpret the mind of the Negro priesthood in making appointments affecting the welfare of our group. GEORGE F BRAGG Jr. Baltimore, Md. Some Good Wishes From Prof. Chas. H. Moore Editor of The New York Age. I may be somewhat belated, but I hope my congratulations will be as welcome just the same. I read in The Age last month that you had succeeded in reaching the mile post of your life and career. Like myself, I notice that you are a June bird, and that each of us is rounding out the third quarter of a century in this "vale of tears," et cetera, "After all, Brother Moore, this is a pretty good world to live, in when one tries to keep his conscience, as far as it is humanly possible to do so, "void of offense to ward, God, and man." I hope you will live long enough, and, moreover, the day be not far distant, when all the members of our race group and the good white people in your political bailiwick will realize the fitness of the political situation, agree to cooperate and decide to send you as the first colored man to represent them in Congress from that district I read in The Age that my good friend, Col Charles Fillmore, is taking some initiatory steps toward unifying our people in the 19th A.D. May success attend his effect. And, by the way, Charles is a first rate name to conquer with, as debubles you know, if you recall Charles of Charles Martel, "The Hammer" of the sevent century, and Charleslmagne, Charles the Great of the eighth century, both of France. I hear nothing but good of your service to our people as a result of your aldermantic responsibilities, and may you have the courage and strength to continue such service. I also, commend you and your associates upon the general improvement in the makeup of The Age and in the soundness and wisdom of the editorial page. With my best wishes, I am sincerely yours.

In 1865, colored citizens of Fortress Monroe, Norfolk, Va., presented a silver-gilt sword to Gen. Benjamin F. Butler, commanding Union forces, and the other day Mrs. Jessie Ames Marshall, Gen. Butler's granddaughter, of 96 Rockwood street, Jamaica Plain, Boston, identified a sword displayed in the window of a New York silversmith as the particular sword, which had disappeared from Gen. Butler's home prior to his death in 1893. The discovery of the sword was made by Lieut.-Col. Walter Graeme Elliot (retired), of I West 54th street, New York City, who noticed it in on display with a tag an nounding it was for sale at $1,000. Col. Elliot asked that it be held until he could draw it to the attention of the patriotic citizens of the grand old commonwealth of Maxsachusets which cradled race, and give them a chance to a dog, a dog in that great conspicuity in that historic pile with its golden dome, where this picture esque and fearless character served as representative, senator, Governor and army commander in war time and a larger field. Daughter Remembers Sword. In making the identification, Mrs. Marshall said that the sword is remembered distinctly by Mrs. Adelbert Ames. Gen. Butler's daughter, and since Gen. Butler's house was twice burglaried prior to his death in 1893, and many of his belongings were then stolen it is altogether likely that this sword did not leave the possession of Gen. Butler. Butler his family by either gift or sale, and by Butler's regard for the colored people. And for their friendship would have made it impossible for him to have parted voluntarily with this token of their gratitude." Founded Normal School. Surprised at the discovery, Mrs. Marshall consulted the official correspondence of her grandfather and found that he was interested in the education of Negroes and established what he intended to be a Normal School for the instruction of their children. The school was located near Portress Monroe. This afterward became Hampton Institute. Col. Eliot made a close examination of the sword and says that it is an asperfect a condition as when presented to Gen. Butler. The Ames family is planning to regain possession of the souvenir weapon.
