Dr Reid's Letter
Mr Casper Holstein,
111 West 130th Street
New York City
M. dear, Brother Holstein
Mr. dear Brother Holstein
I believe that a change in the
leadership of the Improved Bere-
vident and Protective Order of Elks
is imperative. I had decided to
support your candidacy for the
reason that I felt that you were
the most available candidate to
repeat the present incumbent and
that you were in a position to ren-
er a real service to the Order
Brother Walton, president of the
New York State Association, how
he has advised me that Grand
exalted Ruler I Finley Wilson has
formed him that you were inter-
tured financially in a certain check
of five thousand ($5,000) dollars
when was given the New York
Entertainment Committee during
the convention in that city and
that you received this money and
have never fully accounted for this
way to the New York Enter-
tainment Committee I have ad-
vised your election as Grand
exalted Ruler on a number of
options but before going further
I respectfully insist that you ex-
tain your connection with this
utter. The Order is entitled to
now whether or not the alleged
statement of the grand exalted
rever made to Brother Walton,
president of the New York State
Association is correct.
Fraternally yours.

As to thank you for your
letter of July 10 in which
requested an explanation from
connection with a check for
T thousand ($5,000) Dollars
which was voted to the New York
Entertainment Committee by the
Grand Lodge in session at New
City August 1927
The accusation of Brother Walt
and the grand exalted ruler J.
Wilson, is absolutely untrue
that does not surprise me in the
So many false statements
already come from the same
in reference to myself that
resolved to let them go in
mind of forgotten things I
is sort of publicity because
have a campaign as that which being waged should be held with the diggity befitting the order of which we are numbers. Although the oppo-irs resorted to every known word and foul method, there never been one instance when situations could be truthful and honestly substantiated. I have your candid attitude in matter and I feel that this ex-clusion is not only due you, but many friends and support throughout the jurisdiction.
Instituted Suit

Grand Excalled Ruler J Fin

the Convention from New
Utica a thing which he was
required to do in spite of the
the grand lodge in session

Brother J Dalmus Steele, P
of Manhattan Lodge Broth
er J Blondy Brown, P I R of Monarch Lodge and Brother Pope E. Billups, P I R of Monarch Lodge, and Brother Brown, then exalted ruler of Imperial Lodge The Grand Lodge Entertainment Committee had voted that I be given plenary powers to bring about the desired peace and harmony which New York sought to the Grand Lodge Entertainment Committee I loaned Two Thousand ($2,000) Dollars I defrays my own expense to and from the West. And although it cost me hundreds of dollars, I did not demand nor did I receive one penny from the Grand Lodge Entertainment Committee. I did it all for the good of the Order
Conferred With Wilson
While I was at Fort Dearborn Lodge, Brother William Hueston, Commissioner of Education, came to me and said that the grand exalted ruler had just telephoned him, stating that I should come to Washington for a conference. I did so. In this conference the grand exalted ruler wanted a guardian and an assurance that the grand lodge would not be molested while in New York. My guardian tree was that I would place in any bank or safe deposit company the sum of twenty thousand. ($20,000). Dollars as a bond and which the grand lodge would have been entitled to use as a Defense Fund in the event of any number being molested by the authorities for any violation of the injunction which was then on record in the State of New York. We came to no detainee agreement but should, after the grand exalted ruler and our grand legal adviser visited me at the Turt Chuy in New York City. At this visit the grand exalted ruler words to me were these: "your lodge to endorse me and pay the fee to the grand legal adviser, and we will be able to hear whatever rough spots we may encounter. I asked him what was too grand legal advisers, too and the grand legal adviser, aswered. Twenty five Hundred ($20,000) dollars."
Monarch Held Special Meeting
I then requested a special meeting of Monarchs Lodge. The request was granted me and the meeting held. At the meeting I urged the endorsement of the grand exalted ruler. I Dunley Wilson, to succeed himself, and which endorsement had only one dissenting voice. Then on June 22, 1927 I drew my personal check of Twenty Five Hundred ($2,500) Dollars which I paid to the grand legal adviser as agreed between him and grand exalted ruler and myself. Now, as you see, the two thousand $2,000 dollars which I advanced to the Grand Lodge Entertainment Committee, plus the twenties five hundred ($2,500 dollars) white. I gave to the grand legal adviser as a fee brought the amount which the committee saved me to forty-five hundred ($4,500) dollars.
When the five thousand ($5,000)
dollars were voted by the grand
lodge to the New York Entertainment
Committee, I told the grand
exalted ruler that totts five hundred ($4,500) dollars of that money
belonged to me and that as the
committee had no cash, I hand
my only hope of getting paid was
from that five thousand ($5,000)
dollars. The check of five thousand ($5,000) dollars was held up
for many months and was in the
possession of the grand treasurer,
Brother J. Carter at Richmond, Va.
Received $5,000 Check
One Saturday some moment after the Convention the grand alted ruler called again at the Tur Club to see him. He inquired whether or not I had received my money. I told him that I had not but that he should hold the check until the Convention meet on Chicago at which time I would carry the matter on the floor at the Convention. Do this the good alted ruler called. I will do.

Passengers on a crowded northbound Scabbeach express of the BMJ Tuesday night were thrown into pane when a colored "trackwalker" became suddenly caressed and went tough the train with an amurroised spear on a sudden expedition against imaginary posse before the man was subdued seven policemen were called and a store of persons felt the sting on the spear. The man went on his rampage right after the car pulled out of the 14th street station. He ran through the cars of the train sticking with the spear all those who stood in his way. By the time the car reached the 34th street station several men who had told the spear's sting jumped on him and attempted to disarm him. The train started to 42nd street and the fight continued. A view well-armed starts routed the soldiers and the conductor had the motorman blow the train whistle to summon police. Three policemen and four special police men responded and after a fight succeeded in quieting the man.

COURT NAMES RECEIVER TO TAKE CHARGE OF AFFAIRS OF ST. LUKE FINANCE CORPORATION IN N. Y.
PARENT BODY DISCLAIMS FINANCIAL OPERATIONS OF ST. LUKE'S IN N. Y.
The Right Worthy Grand Council, Independent Order of St. Luke, with headquarters at Richmond, Va., Mrs. Maggie L. Walker, grand secretary-treasurer, has sent a telegram disclaiming any responsibility for the actions of the New York District St. Luke Finance Corporation. Said the dispatch. "The members of the New York District made the same mistake which other fraternals have made in other sections of the country. They began to reach out and to speculate and invest their moneys in other things as an auxiliary to their fraternal work" until they became heavily involved in debt.
"Their obligations continued to grow until creditors took them into the courts. The result was the appointment of a receiver. This receivership has nothing to do with the fraternal relation of the membership of the New York District of the Order at Richmond. The Right Worthy Grand Council, I. O. of St. L.. has recently undergone an examination by the Virginia Insurance Department and by the Insurance Department of the District of Columbia and was pronounced solvent in every respect."

STATE ATTORNEY GENERAL IS ASKED BY MEMBERS TO BRING ABOUT DISSOLUTION OF BODY Action Taken On Charge That Corporation Is Engaged In Busi- ness Without Legal Right
President Grice Denies That Organization Is Insolvent, Stating That Its Profits Total $10,000 Annually In Business Ventures
Charging that the New York District Independent Order of St. Luke, Inc., Dennis Grice, president, which owns the building at 125-127 West 130th street as its headquarters, in which is being operated a dance hall and public restaurant, is committing ultra vires acts, i.e. doing business which is not authorized by its articles of incorporation, State Attorney General Hamilton Ward brought suit before Supreme Court Justice Walsh for the appointment of a receiver and for a dissolution of the affairs of the organization.
The suit was instigated by Dr. Albert S. Reed and other members of the order who retained Council member John Clifford Hawkins. He made the assertion that the seller John Clifford Hawkins, Al board of directors is a dummy derman from the 21st A.D. The petition was served on the re- board of directors would be summarily dismissed. Officials of the society say that hearings before Assistant Attorneys General Broullard on July 24 and 27, 1928, at the close of which both sides were required to file briefs on the questions of law involved.
Receiver Is Appointed
The final development is date came at a hearing before Justice Walsh on Friday, July 12 at which time Joseph F. Crater a lawyer, of 120 Broadway was named as receiver and directed to take charge of the assets of the society and the management of its affairs. The Attorneys general alligned that the organization is insolvent and unable to pay its obligations. This charge is based on the fact that at least four purchases of "restunding notes" issued by the society in the form of a 5-year certificates bearing 5 per cent interest in denominations of $5 upwards have made affidavits to the effect that they have not been able to secure redemption of matured notes, although demands for repayment have been formally made. President Grace denies that the organization is insolvent, declaring that it was not in a health or financial condition than at present showing an annual profit of $10,000. He said that application would be made to have the charter amended so that a holding company would be formed to take over the restaurant and real estate, and that this would put an end to the receivership.
It was brought out in the petition that the society has purchased in addition to the property on West 130th street an apartment house property at 257 259 West 129th street, and a combination apartment house and store property at 301 West 139th street, both of which are rented to divers and sundays, persons not members of the order. It is reported that the holdings aggregate about $300,000 in total value
Dr Reed Made Complaint
Dr Albert S Reed, who inspired the complaint, as seen by a top representative of The Age and asked for information concerning the matter. He was averse to making a statement saying that he is a member in good standing of the parent Order of St Luke's, which operates from Richmond, Va. Dr Reed stated that he had not decided to make the complaint until he
came to a realization that a row of the members' were using the Order to their personal advantage. He made the assertion that the board of directors is a dummy body, and that anyone who disagreed with the present regimen would be summarily dismised. Officials of the society say that Dr Reed's motive is to be found in a disagreement he had with President George concerning rental charge for his medical office which was located in the St. Luke's building on West 130th street from the time of its acquisition by the society. The statement is made that after the building had been extensively remodelled Dr Reed was asked to pay an increased rent to President George and that the ensuing disagreement which led to the removal of his office was the torment that impeded the complaint.
The articles of incorporation were started for the society by Counsellor John William Smith and he has been regarded as a tortor for the body but in the present litigation former Judge Sydney C Crane has been retained by the society.
Question Business Activities

Proceeding the brief sets forth that the society issued Refunding Notes to the amount of about $100,000 of which there are now outstanding about $65,000 although the board of directors only authorized these notes to be placed at the Chelsea Exchange Bank, but that no lending or other special fund had been maintained to redeem these notes.

130th street premises to the amount of $15,000, that this was done without proper authority, that within fifteen days the West 139th street property was bought and that on or about April 1925, the said mortgage was increased to $20,000 again without authority.
The membership of the society consists of subordinate councils of the Independent Order of St Luke, operating in New York City, the parent body being at Richmond, Va. The only certificate of membership issued by the society is the Refunding Notes, purchased at a mature five years from date of purchase bearing 5 percent interest.
It is pointed out that in the event of dissolution, the receiver will dispose of the properties subject of course to mortgages, realize on whatever other assets are available and reimburse the holders of the notes as far as is possible from what is left of the money raised.
Board Members Had To Pay
The charge is further made that the society increased its board of directors from the original twenty-one to forty-five members, without conforming to the Membership Corporation Law. This was done, it is alleged so that local lodges of the Order could have the naming of a member of the board of directors, the right to that privilege being granted only in case the local lodge subscribed to $100 worth of the Refunding Notes, the name being required to the named member of the TFACE in course, $200 for each of the members nominated by a local lodge. It is charged that all of the acts approved by this augmented board are illegal and invalid and that only the twenty-one original signers of the Article of Incorporation are true members of the board.
Inquiry was made as to what became of the money's accruing from the sale of the Refunding Notes from the rentals of the properties and from the restaurant, bringing, as stated by President George $10,000 net profits annually. The reply was that the money was reported as having been used in remodelling of the headquarters building on West 130th street. Emphasis was laid on the fact that no charges of dishonesty have been or will be made against officers of the society. The suit is brought entirely by reason of the fact that the society has violated the law by entering into business ventures without authority of law.

He then telephoned at 5:30 p.m. to Washington and said to the party on the other end "To go to the office and open the safe and get that check of five thousand ($5,000) dollars drawn to the Grand Lodge Entertainment Committee Take it to Richmond and get Carter to sign it and bring it up to me." That was done. On the following Monday, the grand exalted ruler handed me the check. I in return paid three hundred and fifty ($350) dollars for a present which I gave to the messenger for bringing the check. The chairman of the New York Entertainment Committee endorsed the check, and so did the grand exalted ruler. I deposited the check to my credit in the Chelsea Exchange Bank. Harlem Branch, five hundred ($500) dollars I took before Monarch Lodge of which I am a member and explained my reasons for so doing. Ten months later I was elected exalted ruler of Monarch Lodge During my incumbency both Manhattan and Imperial Lodges acquired of the five hundred ($500) dollars It was then and there equally divided between the lodges Monarch Manhattan and Imperial Therefore you see, there was not one dishonest act on my part in connection with this five thousand ($5,000) dollar check
To substantiate what I have said, I am sending you photographs of the check drawn to P W Howard and endorsed by him.

I also wish to state that I have been a member of Monarch Lodge of New York City for 23 years I wrote the names in the charter which was signed by B. F Howr bird, then grand, exalted ruler From March 8, 1927, to July 8, 1929, I have never done a dishonest act either in my lodge or in the Order Beneath my name on the page upon which it was written 23 years ago, you will find a clean sheet I have never defrauded my lodge or the Order, nor have I been a party to their being defrauded in all that time.
Up to this very moment I have never received one penny from my lodge for sickness or otherwise I have never been a member of any other lodge. The records will show that what I have said is absolutely true. I wonder if the grand exalted ruler can say that much I would like to ask him just two questions (1) Was he ever a member of Eureka Lodge No. S, Norfolk, Va, and during his membership was he ever a caused of dishonesty, if so what was the consequence? (2) During the first Grand lodge at Atlantic City, was he a member of the Degree Committee, and as such was he accused of conferring degrees on members in questionable places what did he do with the money and what was the consequence?
I am writing you this with all the honesty and manhood I possess. I trust that as time rolls on and we become better acquainted, you will find me to be, not the loathsome creature the grand exalted ruler in his propaganda has pictured me, but a man worthy of the respect and love of his people and fellow Elks. I hope that my letter with photographs will convince you of my honesty.

Much bridge was played on the trip up and down the river and radio music enveloped those who did not play the popular game. It was a wears but hard parts that finally reached the 129th street pier at 10 p.m.

At a meeting of the Manhattan Republican Club of the 21st Assembly District, on Tuesday evening, July 10, Alderman John Clifford Hawkins was designated for renomination of the Republican candidate from his district for the fall election. It was the first meeting held in the district since the dual leadership took effect and Mr Hawkins had the support of both Robert S Conklin, white district leader, and Charles W. B. Mitchell, the newly elected colored leader. The name of Mrs Hortense Warner was presented by friends as opposition candidate to Mr Hawkins, she was beaten by a wide margin.

TEXAS JIM CROW
LAW ON STREET
CARS VEX RIDERS
Conductor Slashed When
He Mistreats Colored
Woman Passenger
Dallas, Texas—A colored woman has been sent to the city's "pea patch" to work out a fine of $25 given her for an alleged infraction of the street car jim crow law, and the white operator of the car was badly slashed with a knife by a colored man who objected to the insulting and oppressive manner in which the woman was treated. The city officials are greatly excited, and Mayor J Waddy Tate has suggested that the motormen and conductors on the street car lines of the city should be armed with pistols to ensure their safety on the jim crow law. But the street car officials with a bit more authority than the city's head are trowning upon the suggestion knowing that it will simply be licensing the operator to murder and reckless use of streams on the slightest trumpet. They declare that the police can handle the situation peacefully.
Blame Negro Newspapers
The colored man who did the cutting has not been captured nor is his identity known. The company has offered a reward of $100 for his apprehension. The district attorney, William McCraw, has come out with a lengthy statement concerning the enforcement of the pm crow law, in which he charges that certain Negro newspapers, published in the North and West, are advocating social as well as political equality, and that it is reading of these newspapers that has caused Negroes to listen to the surnal song of race equality. He says that these papers have denounced the pm crow act as unconstitutional, and then points out that the Supreme Court of the United States, in a case coming up from Louisiana, that of Plessy vs. Louisiana had uphold the segregation law with reference to public vehicles.

The Court of Appeals handed down a decision this week in favor of the law firm of French and French of 200 West 135th street against the Roberts Abbott Publishing Co. in connection with a suit for fees which has been in the courts for more than three years. Tlip, action came as a result of a label suit in which the New York lawyers represented the Chicago publisher against Marcus Garvey. Garvey sued the Chicago Defender and its publisher Robert W. Lott for $100,000 label in 1923 and the law turn of French and French were engaged as attorneys in the Defender. Through their their handling of the case the court awarded Mr. Garvey a verdict of $10 with a bill of 10 per cent of the amount sued for, $30,000, as their fee. Abbott said this was an important and asked the court to decide the matter.
When the action was the fee for
cure up in court, French and
French were awarded $100 but
they appealed this as being against
the weight of evidence Judge Pro-
kauer in the Appealate Division re-
versed the lower court and ordered
a new trial. Then Mr Abbott ap-
pealed troops this decision and it was
this appeal that was finally acted
upon

Grenthal as leader of the 19th Assembly district has got to go. He has forfeited every right to Negro support. He sold out Fred R. Moore, in the last election. He traded votes with the Democratic leader in order to defeat George-E. Hall. He has proven that he, is not in sympathy with the aspirations of the thinking Negroes in the district, and for these and other reasons he must he defeated decisively. And he can be.
Our duty is plain. There is not a single difficulty in the path, except our own stupidity and lack of race consciousness. We have reached the place, although some of us do not believe it, where we no longer need nor require white leadership and, especially when that leadership is ours by reason of the political, economic and social interest of Negro voters in the district demands that Grenthal be voted out and Fillmore elected.
We have reproduced this article in full, because it voices clearly and strongly the sentiments of the majority of the voters of the district, many of whom are members of Abyssinian Church. If these voters have the courage and independence to vote as they think, in the primaries and at the polls, the question of leadership will soon be settled in the right way. Until it is settled by a full and free expression of the true sentiment of the voters, it will remain a constant source of unrest and dissatisfaction, working harm to the best interests of the race and, of the Republican party.

REASON IN RENT RAISING. Much of the dissatisfaction and resentment at the wholesale raising of rents that has followed the expiration of the state Emergency Rent laws, has been due to the lack of any legitimate reasons advanced for such increases. The fact that the landlord wants more money for the occupancy of his property does not impress the tenant as a sufficient reason or paying more, until he tries to find if he can get equal accommodation elsewhere for less, money. This attempt to secure lower rents means moving his household goods, which always involves expense and trouble.
WHO'S THE IMITATOR NOW?
In the New York World of last Sunday, after noting that the London production of Eugene O'Neill's play, "All God's Chillun Got Wings," showed that mixed marriages and mixed casts do not seem to excite King George's subjects, or cause them to suffer mental anuish, Lester A. Walton noted some phases of theatrical management in this country as affected by the difference of races or complexions. He referred to the fact that when objection was raised to a white actress playing opposite Paul Robeson in the original production of O'Neill's play in New York, he advocated placing a colored actress of light complexion in the principal role, but found it not the policy of American managers to cast colored actors in white parts, although white actors are selected to depict Negro characters.
After showing that theatrical reviewers demand that Negro life be visualized only in the log cabin, with the mule and heart on the plantation, or if the setting is urban, as reckoning with lawlessness and vice. Mr. Walton wound up as follows:

If the landlords and agents would get together and show tenants good reasons why they should pay more money for the same accommodations, it might result in amicable adjustment that would be satisfactory to both sides. For instance, if the owners could show that their properties had been operated at a loss during the past few years, that the gross rentals did not do more than meet the taxes, interest and operating expenses, leaving no margin for profit on the capital invested, it would be an exceedingly obtuse tenant that would not see a good reason for an increase of rent.
It should work to the advantage of the landlord if he would take his tenants into his confidence, at least to this extent by showing them the necessity for making his property produce an income. The legitimate tenant, who is not profiteering by subletting most of his apartment at high rates, would be convinced of the propriety of a raise, and if his earnings would stand the strain, would pay a reasonable increase. The profiteering tenant would probably protest at first, but in the end would probably submit, as even after a legitimate increase, he would be making a good profit.
After showing that theatrical reviewers demand that Negro life be visualized only in the log cabin, with the mule and oxcart on the plantation, or if the setting is urban, as recking with lawlessness and vice. Mr. Walton wound up as follows:
One reads much nowadays about colored performers "trying to act like white people," but no complaint is ever registered about the white performers' predilection for imitating Negroes.
White vocalists and musicians are featuring Negro spiritual and such compositions as the "St Louis Blues," white comedians are doing blackface in musical comedy and vaudeville, white hoofers are going to starlem and coming all the original steps from colored hoofers, while last season a Negro character dominated one of the big successes of the season at the Metropolitan Opera House.
But the abrupt notice of a raise of rents from thirty-five dollars a month to sixty-five is calculated to drive the most reasonable tenant to frenzy. A raise of almost one hundred per cent, in the cost of shelter alone is bound to disrupt the most elastic family budget. And yet this is what some landlords in Harlem are doing. Tenants of eighteen and twenty years standing who have made their own repairs during most of that period have been notified that they must meet this stupendous raise. It is inconceivable that these landlords have been doing business at such a loss as these figures would imply. It looks as if they simply wanted to drive out the present occupants, because of spite or resentment at their having held possession so long at moderate rentals.
In the past sun was poked at colored women who used face preparations to whiten their skins. Now white women, in and out of the theatrical profession, are sporting a brownish complexion with the aid of sun tan powder. As white actors have no compunction about appearing in Negro characters and singing Negro songs on the stage, is not criticism of Negroes "trying to act like white people" before the footlights inconsistent and fallacious?
Often when accused of imitating white people the colored performer is just being himself, for there are various types and classes of colored Americans the same as there are various types and classes of white Americans. And their characteristics and mannerisms are influenced by the same compelling forces—heredity, environment and training—not color.
Negroes in Boston do not speak with a Back Bay accent to imitate the whites, but because it is natural for them to do so as a component part of communities, life. The same can be said of Negroes in the South; also of the recently arrived West Indian Negro born under the British flag.
Prudent landlords who desire to retain their tenants, might find it wise to advise their tenants of the reasons why rents should be increased, thus preserving the goodwill of their tenants and garnering a reasonable profit on their investment.
Expecting the Negro born and reared in New York or in a Northern city to speak Negro dialect and know all about the cotton and the corn is paying them too much of a compliment to his intelligence, adaptability and versatility.
WHY.GRENTHAL SHOULD GO.
The Advance is the name of a bright and news sheet, published Saturday of each week in the interest of the Abyssinian Baptist Church. Its editor is Nelson E. Dixon. Besides giving a compendium of the doings of the church and its work, the editor does not hesitate to discuss questions of general interest, political or otherwise, with fairness and candor. In a recent issue, under the uncompromising heading, "Bucking the Machine," it declared unhesitatingly in favor of the candidacy of Colonel Fillmore for the leadership of the Nineteenth Assembly district, supporting its choice with the following terse and pertinent argument.
And if he talks and departs himself the same as other New Yorkers under similar conditions he is not "imitating" but acting natural.
This charge of a predilection among the whites for imitating Negro characteristics is given point by the announcement that one of the famous Barrymore family of actors is to enact the part of the hepone of "Scarlet Sister Mary," on the stage this fall. It used to be said that imitation is the sincerest form ofattery, but we hesitate to accept it as such when introduced on the stage. Nevertheless there must be some element of interest or novelty in the depicting of Negro characteristics or those idiosyncracies attributed to the race by white writers.

According to his signed and published statement, and we like his straight from the shoulder pronouncement—Louis Col. Charles Fillmore proposes to buck the Republican machine in the 19th Assembly district and Jock horns with Abraham Grenthal for the leadership. Bully.
SCHOLARSHIPS FOR BUSINESS
An account of the convention of the National Federation of Business and Professional Women, held at a Michigan summer resort last week, showed that the evolution of women in the business world has now happened entirely by chance, but is the result of training and systematic preparation. The experience of the member has shown that it requires training to make a girl succeed

Very likely Grenbital had thought that, by throwing a sop to Miles Paige, he had stifled the outcry in the district for Negro leadership. The honest to goodness statement by Lieut Col Fillmore shows that he has another thing to face. By virtue of the fact that the majority of the voters in the district are Negroes, leadership belongs to them and can neither be bought nor sold for a mess of pettage, without their consent. So the fight is on and we are in it heart and soul to the finish.
THE NEW YORK AGE
and the cost of that training, which the organization helps to give, is considerable. The report of the committee on education showed that the federation, through its local chapters, had disbursed over one hundred and fifty thousand dollars for the training of nine hundred and ninety-nine girls and one lone boy. Why the boy was selected was not explained.
This account of the work of a great women's organization in training candidates for the professions and business has special significance for the members of race who are striving to make good along the same lines. The idea of granting scholarships for deserving individuals has been adopted by some of our beneficial organizations, especially the Elks. There is every reason why the plan should be adopted more generally by such organizations and extended to all lines of business. If the women of the country to the number of fifty-five thousand, have found that such a policy pays, there is every reason for its adoption by others seeking the same ends.
The theory behind the awarding of scholarships for special students is either to help those who would fail to pursue such a course for lack of adequate funds or else to further the career of an exceptionally gifted student, who has shown unusual aptitude in some special line. Often the scholarship is awarded after a competitive contest, in which the student with the best mental equipment is chosen to pursue the desired course, regardless of his material circumstances. The method of award and requirements for winning a scholarship of this kind must be determined by those who establish it, always keeping in view the fact that the character and ability of the individual chosen will determine whether the aid is wisely bestowed or not.
Among special scholarships that might be established by those race organizations that are willing to stimulate progress in this direction, are those for the study of accounting, advertising, banking, law, finance real estate, statistics, economics, government, journalism, and various phases of business management and salesmanship. Besides these, there are technical trades and certain kinds of skilled labor outside of the white collar occupations, in which we should seek representation. Scholarships for business purposes might be a wise investment.
RULERSHIP OF THE ELKS.
In the approaching contest for the rulership of the Independent Order of Elks, many charges have been made against the present incumbent, J. Finley Wilson, involving mismanagement and waste of funds of the order. As an offset to these charges, considerable surge has been made over the payment of a large sum to his leading opponent for the office, Casper Holstein, as is revealed in a letter written by one of the members of the order, who was inclined to support Mr. Holstein's candidacy, and who asked for an explanation of the transaction
This letter of inquiry, together with Mr. Holstein's frank and full explanation of his advances made to the order to secure the meeting in this city in 1927, which we publish in The Age this week, make interesting reading. A careful scrutiny of the correspondence would seem to show that Mr. Holstein made the advances referred to for the benefit of the order and the reimbursement made him after some months delay was but the repayment of a legitimate obligation of the order. However, it is well that the inquiry was made and the facts fully revealed, so that the members of the order and all interested might study them and form their own judgment as to the equity of the transaction.
Mr. Holstein has carried on an open and dignified campaign for the post of Grand Exalted Ruler, stating simply and candidly the policies of economy and retrenchment that he deems necessary at this stage of the order's existence. He has villified nobody and has presented no opening for villification of himself. He may have gone further than necessary in his announcement of an intention not to profit personally by the salary attached to the office, but that is a matter between the members of the order.
We are of the opinion that Mr. Holstein would make an exceptional executive head for the order in the present emergency. Enjoying a reputation for philanthropy and possessed of ample means of his own the individual lodges of the order need not fear the depleting of their treasury as a result of his visit if he should be elected. Conceding the considerable growth in numbers and in finances that has attended the order under the present exalted ruler, the necessity for a change of methods and administration is clearly apparent. We think that under the rule of Mr. Holstein the order would obtain the desired change and multiply its usefulness in many particulars.
THE AGE READERS' FORUM
Capitalizing The "N" In "Negro"
By LESTER A. WALTON
Commissioner Frank P. Graves of the New York State Board of Education at Albany has issued a formal order that in the future all department publications spell "Negro" with a capital "N."
Following Dr. Graves' announcement decreeing that the racial term should be so dignified, Dr. C. Edward Jones, superintendent of the Albany Public Schools forwarded the following communication to his principals.
"Let it be Negro and not negro. "Throughout this country there is an organization of Negro people who are anxious that they shall be recognized as a race rather than simply as colored people. I believe they are entitled to all encouragement in this effort to dignify and help their people. The matter has been taken up by the head of the English Division of the State Education Department. Dr. George W. Norwell, supervisor of Engleh, was then quoted as looking favor on the capitalizing of "Negro" when used either as a term or an adjective, and the ruling of Dr. Graves on the subject used.
The Albany branch of the Empire State Federation of Colored Women's Clubs was instrumental in bringing about the desired change. This new policy promulgated by New York education authorities at Albany reflects the growing sentiment among editors, lexicographers, publishers and writers to accord the term "Negro" the same respect and dignity as other racial appellations. Sixteen years ago the number of daily papers and magazines to capitalize "Negro" was negligible; days many influential newspapers, periodicals and book publishers use the capital N. There are some publications which religiously, adhere to the obeseate custom. This fidelity to archaism is either due to difference or prompted by a desire to maintain a consistent record of emplacabits.
In April, 1913, when, as managing editor of The New York Age, I launched a campaign of agitation for the capitalizing of "Negro" an acantance facetiously inquired if I expected to solve the race problem by my activities. At the time there was a divergence of views on the question then William G. Wilrox, then president of the New York Board of Education was asked to exert his influence in getting the board to favor the spelling of "Negro" with a capital "N" in the public schools of Greater New York, he wrote. "It would be an easy matter to go through the formality of submitting your statement of the case for capitalizing the 'N' in Negro to the Board of Education, but I feel would be an unwise move to force an discussion of the matter. I am certain time is not ripe for undertaking any campaign as wide as he one you suggest."
Prof Franz Boaz of the Department of Anthropology, Columbia University, wrote me a few days after receipt of Mr. Wilcox's communication saying "While of course I am very sympathetic in regard to all questions relating to the advancement of the Negro race as well as any other race. I do not think that the points in question is very vital. So far as I know, it is customary to spell the Negro race and the white race with small letters when the two words simply adjectives, and to use capitals when they are used in other words."
In April, 1913, when the Associated Press held its annual meeting in New York, I addressed a letter to this great news agency, sending it in care of Mr. Bowles, then publisher of the Springfield (Mass. I) Republican My appeal that "Negro he capitalized was published in The New York Times Springfield Republican and other leading news papers. The organization sent a copy of my letter to every member of the Association press in the United States and foreign countries. This marked the beginning to put 'Negro' on the same plane with other real terms.
In my letter of April 21, 1913, to the Associated Press, I said in part "Some argue that the term 'Negro' is used only in the abstract as are the terms 'colored', 'white' and 'black' But to use 'Negro' as an adjective, meaning black, the fact that of, in view of, Negroes in this country less than three million are black "Webster defines 'Negro' as an African black There are millions of us who are not Africans, neither are we black There are millions of us who are black but not Africans
"To merely refer to us as 'colored' means nothing more than when you mention that a Caucasian is 'white' Japanese, Indians, and Chinese are 'colored'. ***Why not refer to the term Negro as a race of people and not with regard to the color of one's skin" Then the term would embrace blacks, mulattoes and all of mixed parentage, for there are millions who are of various shades of brown or are of mulattoes and are near mulattoes, and there are thousands who are as white as any Caucasian. To classify their people as 'black' would be as improper as to classify the 'whites' as blacks. Green is not red nor can you make brown or yellow black But in the grouping you can put the brown, black, mulatto, near mulatto, and near white under one ethno logical classification—Negro."
Even such a well-known authority as Dr Frank H Virtelts in charge of the lexicographer's easy chair of the Literary Digest, has disagreed with me on the propriety and correctness of capitalizing "Negro" in a letter he wrote. "Neither The Literary Digest nor the lexicographers make the language Rest usage, as reflected by the literature of our own time and of the years before us, is responsible for the fact that the word negro, which is a Spanish word meaning black, is not capitalized. It is a common noun and should not be used in any way to designate a human being. The proper designation for the race is the Miro American race. As you are aware, the words
creole mulatto, quequeen and octoon are never capitalized? **** usage establishes the capital 'N.' to designate an individual of the brown or black race, such as it may be, you will find the word Negro in books as well as publications.' In answering Dr. Vizetelly I wrote in part: 'You assert the proper race designation for me is 'Afro-American.' I am an unhyphenated American. Furthermore, the term 'American' appertains to my nationality, not my race. A Senegalese is a Frenchman when we consider his nationality. If your contention is that members of my race should be called 'Afro-Americans' because some of our ancestors many, many years' ago came from Africa, by the same process of reasoning the' conclusion must be reached that the descendants of early settlers who came over on the Mayflower are essentially 'Anglo-Americans.' Are you going to refer to the Negro in Haiti as an 'Afro-Haitian.'
"I note that one of your claims for failure to capitalize 'Negro' is that it is of Spanish origin, meaning 'black'. Don't you think strict observance of a Spanish custom centuries old by Americans is obvious: out of keeping with our present-day customs and usages." In Spain and other Latin countries the term is used stricken in its literal sense. The browns, yellows and near-whitees are classed in a different group". For more than a decade such arguments have been made pro and con. Novelty of Negro is often New York "N" in The Literary Digest, scores of other publications and in books evidently it is to be interpreted that usage has at last decreed the establishment of the capital "N."
There are Negroes who still vehemently protest against the use of the term because of connotation and its association with "Nigger" and "Negress" Those inclined to quibble over its ethnology are reminded that it is a new race America is considering—a Negroid group, of blacks, browns, mulattoes, or whips who have blonde hair and blue eyes. Are not these twelve million or more people of mixed blood entitled to a distinguishing cognomen that shall embrace sufficient individuality as to be worth of a place in the ethnological classification of the world?

Morris Brown Gets New Lease of Life

Morris Brown University was staggering under a $210,000 obligation when the Rev W A Fountain, son of Bishop W A Fountain, took administrative control about year ago. Through the enturing efforts of President Fountain and the supervisory cooperation of Bishop Fountain, who is the chancellor of the university, and the pulling to together of the denominational forces of the state, some $55,000 in cash have been raised during the past year and the indebtedness of the university reduced to the point where $55,000 in cash at the present time will completely meet all the outstanding obligations for the first time in several years, all the teachers were paid at the end of each current month and at the close of the school year. This was an unheard of experience of the institution in recent years.
An effort to raise a large amount toward making the results of the financial campaign for the year total $100,000 is launched in connection with the Tri-State Convention composed of the Sunday school Christian Endeavors and the Women's Home Missionary Societies of the A.M. T. Churches through out these states, which will meet in Savannah, Ga., the latter part of August. The amount of the $600,000 annual fund campaign are to be submitted and passed upon at this convention. By the close of the annual conference the latter part of November, $100,000 in cash is expected to have been raised, according to Bishio Fountain.
Daine College at Cuthbert, Ga., and Central College at Navanahalli have been closed, fitting into the consolidation program of Bishop Fountain, and all efforts will be centered on Morris Brown University. Through the business-like policies with the President Fountain has added the award of the year during the year, confidence has been restored and credit relations with business houses in the community have been re-established
The faculty personnel has been strengthened by the addition of the Roy S. N. Lang, M. N. Northwestern University, head of the Department of French. A plan is under way to establish a working relationship between Clark University, Morehouse College and Morris Brown University whereby an exchange of professorships will be made possible. This will greatly enhance the curricula of the institution under question, as well as stimulate a more congenial relationship between it and the other schools of a very helpful character.
The largest number of graduates receiving the A. B. degree was turned out at the close of the year. The largest number of ministers was in attendance during the commencement season and the commencement meeting that they have had. The denominational morale throughout the state has been revived. During the recent commencement program some of the outstanding educators and religious leaders were identified with the program Presidents Harvey Cox of Emory University, Florence Hope of Spellman College and John Hope of Morehead College, Agnes Foster of Redding College and Academy School of Social Work Walker Hill, supervisor of Negro Education of Georgia Dr. Willis J. King of Common Theological School Dr. Howington Professor at Garett Theological Institute and Bishop R A Carter of the M F. Church were among those who contributed toward the educational program during the commencement season.

Under the somewhat astounding headline, "The Negro Self, Disfranchised in the South," the Atlanta Independent indulged in a bit of plain talk in the following fashion:
A. careful will of the suffrage in the South will disclose the fact that the Negro is largely disfranchised on his own motion of civic negligence and lack of political pride.
The Negro accepts the disfranchising amendments to the State Constitution, as complete and effectual disfranchisement, and makes no effort to exercise his civil and political rights under the state in consequence which his lack of effort contributes more to his lack of political power in the states where they live than do the disfranchising amendments?
Thousands of Negroes in the South, educated and uneducated, make no effort to qualify to vote under the prevailing laws of the state in which they live and then pressed to advertise to the world that the white folk won't let us register.
The Negro should first make a bona fide effort to write his names on the voters' list before he says he is debarred from voting. Neither court decisions nor legislation by Congress can write our names on the qualified voters lists in the states where we live. Nothing can perform this act, except our own personal efforts. If we would have names on the voters lists, we must pay our tax and square ourselves with every requirement of the states in which we live. If we think the requirements are unreasonable and of harmony with the Constitution of the United States, take the law and the offenders into the United States courts.
That is a side of the disfranchisement question which is well worth serious consideration. When Editor Davis says, "the Negro is self-disfranchised, rather than by subterfuges and arbitrary, overbearing election officers," he should know whereof he speaks:
Discussing the creation of the Farm Relief Board and its possible effect on the farming industry the Baltimore Herald and Commonwealth said:
The intention and purpose of the creation of the Farm Board and the placing in its hand $500,000,000 is to endeavor to maintain price levels of Farm products above cost of production through control of surplus crops
Cotton farmers for many years have been aided through the ware house system existent in all parts of the cotton, raining south
Farmers who take their cotton to market and find the price unsatisfactory can place their cotton in the warehouse. A certificate is issued for the cotton upon which money can be borrowed from any bank. A small storage fee is charged in addition to a small insurance premium. This system in operation for a number of years in the cotton sections of the South has been greatly helpful to cotton farmers, although by no means a panacea for all their ills. It helped during many years of introduction to keep off the market a part if not all of the surplus overproduced thus keeping up price levels and saving thousands of farmers from run
We believe that the Farm Board operating in a similar way by removing the surplus or the very knowledge that the Board is ready and has the means with which to remove a crop surplus from the market will maintain the price of that product enabling the farmer to sell at a living price above the cost of production.
Unlike the cotton warehouse system this service is to be given the farmer without cost to him.
Arguing that anything that will help the farming industry will help Negro farmers, Editor Andrews

The Great American Circus had its beginning at Boners, Westchester County, N.Y., in 1815 when Hachalahal Bailey, a farmer, bought "Old Bet" the first elephant ever brought to this country. Bailey made a fortune exhibiting here. In Ithaca N.Y., daylight-saving time is observed only by Cornell University. Daylight saving in the Empire State starts in various cities as early as April 29 and as late as May 26.

Asserting that the Democrats have placed the Republican party in the New Jersey legislature in a bad position, the Red Bank Echo commended a resolution introduced by Senator Simpson, Democrat, deprecating the Congressional criticism of the DePriest incident. It said,
If the Republican Party is afraid that this little measure will hurt the G. O. P., then the party is weak kneed, and ought to lose its power. Simpson must be given what's due him, and he is the only state senator who has manhood enough to fight openly for American principles regardless of race, creed or color. Simpson has introduced several measures to defend the rights of citizenship, but was refuted by the Republican-Party, one on the Tome River affair and present measure The G. O. P., has controlled our legislature and not a Republican has fought for the Negro. But nefarious bills have been introduced by Republicans. Peter F. Dodd's bill on Intermarriage and a bill to disrobe all Negro societies and members in this state. Ex-Assemblyman Basil Bruno was the only white Republican for years who introduced a clean bill, but was killed politically by his party for so doing.
It is time for the Republican Party to act. The Negro is no longer sleeping. He throws his lot with the party that recognizes his worth and sponsors clean legislation for the good of all.
All of which shows that both the Negroes and the Democrats, in New Jersey are alive to their opportunities.
The philosophic editor of the Richmond Planet regards the present political campaign in Virginia as closely akin to the one of readjusted days, with Bishop Cannon, the militant churchman, as a modern General Mahone. He continued.
General Mahore. He continued.
It is time for all the colored voters to organize and ally themselves with either one side or the other. The Democrats who a short time ago were yelling against the Negro will find it might "comforting" to have these same individuals standing side by side with them at the polls to stem the tide, now steadily setting in against the Democratic organization and against all that its leaders hold year. Thoughtful concerted action is needed and meeting for discussion, free and unconfined, is in order so that the average citizen of colof will be able to decide whether he will support the Democratic organization under the AI Smith, Raskob and Byrne of the Democratic Organization under the leadership of Cannon, Brown, Slemp or Hower to correct conclusion will do the colored folks good and be of untold benefit to them in their political condition in this Grand Old Commonwealth.
Evidently the Negro voters of Virginia do not feel that they have been eliminated from the situation, despite the action of the Libwhite keyicans
Claiming that the appointment of Robert H Luzas as Commissioner of Internal Revenue is "the first major appointment given to our group by the President, 'the Portland, Oregon, Advocate' said
It is encouraging to say the least, when heretofore, this place has been held for a number of years by a Southern Republican who was reelected by President Hoover—which goes to show that Mr. Hoover is not catering to the Lab White Republicans and the Southern racist Democrats as has been reported.
We are afraid that Editor Canady is a little too previous in his claim, as Mr Lucas, who was Collector of Internal Revenue for the Kentucky district for several years is not a member of any Negro group, although his promotion was commended by the Negro pref. of Louisville.
Endorsing the candidacy of Dr. A. G. Edwards, a prominent Louisville philan and surgeon for Representative in the Kentucky Legislature, the Louisville Leader.
We need not rehash here for reasons we have given from time to time, why a colored man should represent that district which is populated by such a larger majority of colored voters, but this, a good time for us to say that since a white man has received the honor of many years by the vote of the majority, that the white minority should at this time be willing to send a representative from the black majority.
This paper has given us support to every Negro candidate who has aspired for office in the past in some cases more for the sake than that we thought the result would be but in supporting such a candidate as Dr Edwards at a most important time we know the results will make history of the voters of the district of which Dr Edwards is to represent will go to the polls August 31 and do their duty in the Republican Primes.
Dr. Edwards is employed in the Dunbar Club one of the largest organizations in the city is supported by other Republican organizations and has the unqualified support of the Leader
In the announcement of the candidacy Dr. Edwards presided over his party affiliation as Republican, saying "not once have I departed from its glorious principles" but added that he was a householder and a politician. His influence has been inseparable to his principles.

The pastor and the church gladly welcome the speaker, and the congregation was especially pleased with the remarkable sermon.
An unusual number for this season of the year was present at the Sunday school. We had the pleasure of Dr Spottiswood's presence, and were benefited by remarks from him. Dr James B. Adams, pastor of Concord Baptist Church, was appained by some out of town shouts bloomed in on the school at the close of the session.
As usual, the sermon by the pastor, Rev W. C. Brown, at the evening service was full and tree, and welcomed the Master's gracious invitation.
The annual outing of the Sunday school will be at Pelham Bay Park. Thursday August 1
the tenth of the Daily Vacation Bible School invites all children to attend the sessions.
Bridge St. A. M. E. Church
The manner of God's love is meant of all and varied, but He has not one purpose and that is mankind should be led up and out of his natural seat and become real sons of God, asserted the pastor, Dr. Edward Ernest Tyler, during the course of a stirring sermon Sunday morning which was communion day. Despite the warm weather the spacious edifice was filled to capacity and standing room was at a premium. The pastor was speaking on the top. The Greatest Ting in the World The Ting was the first book of St. John 1. Dr. Tyler stressed the point that God's love is mankind was the greatest thing in the world, and must use human hands, feet and hearts to get into the hearts of women and thus inspire us to go to graves and howways, rescue the fallen and do good. The greatest need of the world today is sons of men and women who are motivated and directed by God.
Two persons joined the church when the invitation was extended. Dr S E. Churchstone Lord, who went to Nicketer, Dutch Guana, as pastor of the A M I E Church there in 1928 was shipped with us Sunday morning. While opening our the essays decided by the young ladies who are members of Infs church in the Emory Fisk Chapel Contest were Tomas De Vrieses.

Upper east in the whole day will be a session of the pastor who said, The American Negro is too shiny. The doctors ball is the biggest thing each year, with women coming from all over the country dressed to kill. Howard University Medical School begs white folks and wash women and teachers for money on while the medical graduates alone could sit in the medical school. We have what we want and beg for we need. We have Jesus. Jesus targets his heart and his God as some being with the terrifying situation he treasured him in, but he fails to love Him. His attitude toward God will have to change if that which he has gained by his sacrifice will be taken away him.
Berean Baptist Church
On last Friday night the Spirit of the Lord began to burn in the hearth the members and on last day morning there was evidence that it was still burning. The pastor delivered a fine service, subject, "Backward Pull" last John 21:3. There is never a day so dark that the sun doesn't shine. The disciples had become discouraged in their Christian journeys and the desire to pull back set in. So Peter suggested to go back to his led boy with the rest followed. He insisted all night with no rest. When they neared the shore who

THE material contrast between the structures with which (Booker T. Washington) began and the present great, ample and commodious plant is sufficiently striking to be enough for one man to bring about. But assistance is at this it is an imperfect measure of Dr. Washington's work and achievements. The education and annual turning out of two or three hundred young men and women for lives useful to themselves and their families is of course a most commodifiable and helpful work, only by one of the hands and sought to do. His purpose was to radiate from center like the light of the homely but ever living truths which must form the basis of real advance for his race, or any race—WILLIAM HOWARD TAFT, Chief Justice United States Supreme Court.

should be standing there but the very person they did not want to see. Jesus But Jesus did not treat them as we would have do if they were followers of us, but told them to cast their nets on the right side. By doing so they caught more fish then they could hold in their nets. They didn't know this stranger who knew more about fishing than they did, as Jesus said. "It is the Lord then Peter jumped into the water. You may give way to the backward pull but it will not profit you anything and you will be brought to public shame just as Peter was. Jesus will find you and bring your face to face to your duties. Sunday School had a short session, after which they voted to send two delegates to the convention on Thursday.

Siloam Presbyterian Church
The message of the morning hour of worship at Siloam, Dr. George Shippen Stark, pastor, was devoted to the keynote of the appeal sent out by the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church of the United States of America. This appeal is, that all Presbyterian churches take up the study of the Book of Acts and seek to stir up the spiritual emotions of the human soul. The text of the hour was taken from Acts, 2:22 and Acts, 3:32.
The pastor mentioned that the appeal was a definite task as mapped out, in view of the celebration of the 1900th anniversary of the Great Commission of Jesus Christ, the Gift of Pentecost to the world, the beginning of the Christian Church. Briefly he outlined that our religion is a religion of a young man in the strength of youth, filled with the Holy Spirit, wholly dedicated to follow the will of God and win the world for Him.
The Daily Vacation Bible School is offering many happy hours to the children of the neighborhood in healthful play, giving them instruction in sewing, woodwork, painting and cutting under the supervision of Miss Lillian Windsor as superintendent, with an efficient staff of teachers.
The picnic of the church will be held this year on the afternoon and evening of July 26 at Dexter Park. On August 15 will be held an excursion to Forest Grove, up the Hudson.
It was encouraging after the morning hour of worship to record that some were moved by the earnest appeal and definite task to be a real vital and active part by becoming members of the church and help win the world for Christa

THE NEW YORK AGE
At The Lafayette Theatre
This week's show at the Lafayette Theatre is unique in many re-peats. In the first place, with the exception of the chorus, not one of the featured entertainers has appeared on a local stage in years, some of them are making their very first appearance in New York. In the second place the show is the latest production of the producer of the current Broadway hit Hot Chocolate. In the third place, it brings to the Lafayette Theatre another of the great colored bands which have graced the stage at the Lafayette Theatre during the past few weeks.
The Slippery Elm Revue is the title of the revue. The cast includes Les. Williams and his famous band Bootsy Swan, Warren and Gill Jean Galloway, Johnny Lee Moore and Wills, Dudley Dickerson Joseph Smith and the Slippery Elm Girls. To those who know Les. Williams only as the leader of a time band, he is a revelation as a leader, comedian, and musician. At the Monday evening and matinee performance, all of the principals were called upon to encore after encore, the band had to play eight numbers and two of the chorus dances "stopped the show." For the first time in many months, the reviewer had the pleasure of seeing comedians recalled for bows and encore after they had finished their "but." This is an indication of how long and loud the audience laughed at the efforts of the comedians.
The photoplay program for the week is also particularly enjoyable. The featured picture is the Vitaphone Talking Underworld Melodrama. Hard-Boiled Rose. Myrna Loy who will be remembered as the star of *State Street Sadie* is the star of this newest crook story which holds the audience spellbound. The photoplay program also includes a wildly enjoyable ground scene and Paul Spitalman's Band in some new and hot numbers.
Next Week At The Lafayette.
Fleicher Henderson and his band the singers from Vincent Vaughn "Great Day" the Two Black Dots Lillian Goodle, Lester and Howell and several other colored states will head a cast of seventy-five performers who will present Lady Dancer's newest musical comedy, "Striver's Row" at the Lafayette Theatre next week.
All the signs and the Herculean efforts of the producers in the Striver's Row" as the next great colored musical show. As a matter of fact, the present plans of the producers and backers of the show contemplate an early showing on me of the large theatres in Chicago. Loop

At Roosevelt Theatre
An unusually fine talking and singing picture will find its way to the Roosevelt's talking screen this Saturday, Sunday and Monday July 20 21 and 22. This is George Lewis's latest and most dramatic feature, Lucky Boy, which features the long My Mother's eyes.
"Lucky Boy is the story of a boy who makes good—even though his first attempts were failures and he was subjected to the ridicule of his family and his girl. He leaves home and suffers summerable hardships but the memory of his mother's teachings carry him through and it finally becomes a headline entertainer.
George lessly, some registrars remarkably well and his one singing and dialogue will surely be enjoyed by Roosevelt patrons when they see "Lucky Boy." The supporting cast was recruited from the stage and screen and includes Margaret Quimby and Gwen Lee. On the same program the Roosevelt will show a new chapter of "The Fatal Warning," a thrilling serial story which is being followed avidly by its title and includes in its cast Helene Catee, Io and Ralph Graves and The Unkissed Man, a new comedy.
At Alhambra Theatre
"The Devil" is at the Alhambra this week—not the devil of old with horns and cloven feet but at up-to-date Satan, acted by Haven Preyor and creating mischief and despair in a very effective drama. This devil in modern form tempts a happy and successful young stockbroker, played by Ted Blackion betrays him into rounous investments and into unfathfulness to his beautiful wife, played by Edna Barr. Bessie Wrightson is the sampler who lures him, and Thomas Mosley is his rival in love. Mél Watts is an old rose and Margaret Bornan-nyle is a cute and slangy little office girl.

Josephine Baker
Film Coming Here
When the French liner, "Ile de France" docks at her pier this week it will have a distinguished passenger on board. The passenger is not other than the internationally famous Josephine Baker who has been the toast of Paris for three solid years. It is as she is known to her host or admirers on this side of the Atlantic is not coming in person but in the celluloid or her triumphant right reel feature picture which has poured throughout Europe to almost as enthusiastic audiences as though Jo Baker were present in the flesh. This film is the best in which the magnetic artistie has appeared, although she has received hundreds of others during her reign as queen of Paris night life.
In Europe the film was shown under the title 'The Siren Of The Tropics' but this title may be changed during the extensive tour the picture will make through all the larger American cities. The Siren Of The Tropics took more than a year and a half to produce 19 months to be exact—and cost more than a million dollars. Some idea of the magnitude of this screen class is be gathered from the facts that more than 1500 European stage and screen stars were impressed into the scenes were taken in three countries—one of which was the island of Martinique in the West Indies. Like in to this tropical island was made on the sacht of government Dene millionaire who is reported to have added in the financing necessary to make the film a real result.
Josephine Baker first came into prominence in the stage world as a graduate of the course of the road company of the amenable Shuffle Along. From an obscure chorus girl she has seated not only the lowest heights of stardom but has been one of the most prominent women in the world today. Shortly after her arrival in Paris she created a sensation when she displayed her skill as a dancer, a dervine or a stalking personal to the inner circles of bored & impatient society who appear on the leading screen in the Lifes Bergere the smartest of most savvy movie nigtez
Negotiations are under way to per aide Mrs. Ike to come to the United States to personally bear with her in the larger American cities.

ACTIVITIES AMONG UNION MUSICIANS
By PERCIVAL OUTRAM
St Ambrose P E Church, 123 West 150th street. Rev I E Duram, rotator, on Thursday, July 11, gave its annual Sunday school excursion at Forest Grove. Several unusual incidents and a distant thrill were features of the trip.
The large steamer, City of Keansburg with its 1,800 passengers left the dock about 10 a.m. A group of undesirables, who had been denied passage on the boat, apparently contentedly, had sat on the pier. As soon as the boat had been released from its moorings, and had gathered some headway, this group raced alongside and jumped aboard running and squirming their way through the surprised excursionists.
More than half of the risky bumps were captured by boat employees and the vigilant committee of the ship. New managed to escape. Lions were imprisoned in the ship, the return to the pier when a number of the employees said they would be released. Up the Hudson steamed the boat giving a smooth man for the time of the huge pedestal appearing supports of the new Bridge which will span the Hudson at 129th street thus further cementing lesse and other points with New York. Forest Grove, a short distance from the starting point of the excursion steamer, so it had been decided to take a trip beyond the grove and give the passengers a chance to enjoy the beauty and scene effects of the ever beginning Hudson. Thus it was that before turning the boat to observe the passengers were thrilled may be some were scared
Few it any one had joined an airplane coming in the same direction we were going. But of a sudden a mighty roar was heard and there a stone's throw from the boat was the plane dipping to ward the water so close at the shadow was outlined. Then up it went to be a huge thing of life and with a mad and abrupt serve to the left gaining altitude it disappeared over the mountain tops in the clouds travelling in the general direction of Albuq.
The plane was not an amphibian. It was soon after the incident that the boat turned and we reached Boree. View of the plane were the winch and made it to the pier. But the ship refused to swing in to the dock. Then it was discovered that the draft of the City or beamsling was nearly the same as the depth of the water at the dock and the depth of the boat the container with the mud as the interior. The donkey engine was requested and pulled the boat to the pier, then enabling the gang plank to be lowered and the passenger let off the plane. The captain of the boat had been told to the dockmaster that the tide could not jam so the captain left on the top deck for the

he directed the docking of the boat, sent for the Res. Durant and informed him the visit to the grove would have to terminate at 2 o'clock, instead of the accustomed 5 o'clock, as otherwise the boat would stick in the mud and would be unable to go out until the next morning.
The minister hurried down the main deck to acquaint passengers of the condition, but the gangplank had been placed and the impatient and hungry excursionists had chased down the long pier to secure tables in the pavilion or under a shade tree to eat their lunch, and so it was that the hardworked goose and warm passengers that on a signal from the boat at 2 o'clock they should return to the boat.
This only allowed about one and a half hours on shore, and it was agreed to take a trip to Bear Mountain before returning to the home dock.
Back on the boat gathered the vast throng of children and grown-ups, some grumblingly, and others good natured, knowing the conditions were caused by no fault of the church or its committee. The ropes were cast off from the dock and the good ship had travelled maybe one hundred feet from the pier when a mighty shout was heard, there curving toward the pier, were two men leading some police and the employees of the park. The boat was backed to the pier and the two beated passengers were hauled aboard to the cheers of the others.
It was noticed that in hacking to the pier, much mud was kicked up. At this time judging by the water mark on the piles in the water there had been very little receding between the original landing and embarkation. The Rev. Mr Durant is alleged to have said that the boat company informed him that the place had been prettily dredged some feet to accommodate the big boat. If this be true the tide must have worked overtime to refill the dredged location.
On the whole though everyone seemed to enjoy themselves, and not a niggt was had, or a cross word heard or reported.

Friday, July 12 the summer visitors and their friends spent a delightful evening as guests of the Committee of Management of the West 17th street branch of the W W C.

DOINGS AMONG PULLMAN EMPLOYEES
Saturday, July 20, 1929
THINGS SEEN, HEARD AND I AMONG PULLMAN
By JAMES H. HOGANS
THE FREE UNIFORMS
With a regularity that is almost clock-like, in each year there may be seen in every Pullman, partly in the cashier's department, layer after layer, brown paper boxes. The number of these boxes that the room in which they are temporarily stored, the distribution office of a modern cloak, see the array of boxes, the stranger might read, regarding the nature of the business done in the latter, will soon reveal that the paper cases contain important than the free uniforms for Pullman conduct.
The Pullman News for July gives some into the history of the free uniform. Under the hot uniforms Given in 35 Years to Pullman Conduct, magazine says:
Thirty-five years ago Pullman's Palace Car for the practice of giving two uniforms, free, annual porters who had been in the service 10 years or more, George M. Pullman, founder and president, order and porters should receive gold and silver sleeves, each five years of service as 'Badges of Honor'.
According to the article, the practice began that first year 51 conductors and 137 porters were uniforms. In the year just past, 1928, recipients of 2,673, of whom 2,847 were conductors and 6,820 of 35 years, the number of free uniforms given was granted a total cost to the company of $4,114,547.
One of the interesting sidelights on the manace is furnished by a letter which the then president, George M. Pullman, wrote to his general, garcelon, at Chicago, on the subject. The committee of March 30, 1894, and among the items, the desire that a proper expression of the should should be given to those who have served faithfully. In considering the form which such sake, it appears to me most appropriate that it should not only be apparent to all with whom the rest in the performance of their duties, but will so their fellow employe.
As a further recognition, the company will conductors or porters who have served ten years per year while they continue in service.
From those items it is obvious that not only appreciate the faithfulness of these employees, but also means by which the travelling public would appreciate the faithful. Although, the immortal long since been gathered to his fathers, his ideas, uniforms, bear fruit to this day.
These service bars are the silent signs by which can always more or less tell the type of cone whom he comes in contact. Furthermore, not only helpful as distinguishing agencies, but many in the course of a year in which they undirectly help understandings which crop up between patron.
An illustration of this was recited by a venerance. The passenger, it seems, wanted something not refused to do. The passenger insisted, asser the porter did not comply with his request, he,rate the company about it. But had the porter requested, he would have been violating a company; the porter was explaining this that the passenger number of service bars he wore.
"Porter, how many years do each of those inquired the complaining patron
THINGS SEEN, HEARD AND DONE AMONG PULLMAN EMPLOYES
THINGS SEEN, HEARD AND DONE AMONG PULLMAN EMPLOYES
With a regularity that is almost clock-like, in May and November of each year there may be seen in every Pullman district office, generally in the cashier's department, layer after layer of neatly arranged brown paper boxes. The number of these boxes is usually so great that the room in which they are temporarily stored assumes the appearance of a distributing office of a modern clothing store. Indeed, to see the array of boxes, the stranger might readily be confounded regarding the nature of the business done in the room. Inquiry, however, will soon reveal that the paper cases contain nothing more important than the free uniforms for Pullman conductors and porters.
The Pullman News for July gives some interesting sidelights on the history of the free uniform. Under the heading, "175,000 Free Uniforms Given in 35 Years to Pullman Conductors and Porters," the magazine says:
Thirty-five years ago Pullman's Palace Car Company inaugurated the practice of giving two uniforms, free, annually to conductors and porters who had been in the service 10 years or more. At the same time George M. Pullman, founder and president, ordered that conductors and porters should receive gold and silver sleeve bars, respectively, for each five years of service as "Badges of Honorable Service."
According to the article, the practice began in 1894, and during that first year 51 conductors and 137 porters were recipients of free uniforms. In the year just past, 1928, recipients of free uniforms were 9,673, of whom 2,847 were conductors and 6,826 porters. During the 35 years, the number of free uniforms given was 175,000, which represented a total cost to the company of $4,114,547.29
One of the interesting sidelights on the inauguration of this practice is furnished by a letter which the then president, and palace car司机, George M. Pullman, wrote to his general superintendent, C. A. Garcelon, at Chicago, on the subject. The communication bears the date of March 30, 1894, and among the items, the Pullman chief said: "I desire that a proper expression of the company's appreciation should be given to those who have served it thus long and faithfully. In considering the form which such expression should take, it appears to me most appropriate that it should be one which will not only be apparent to all with whom the recipients come in contact in the performance of their duties, but will also be an incentive to their fellow employee.
"As a further recognition, the company will present to each of the conductors or porters who have served ten years or more, two uniforms per year while they continue in service."
From those items it is obvious that not only did the Pullman head appreciate the faithfulness of these employees, but he wanted to designate a means by which the travelling public would also be able to appreciate the faithful. Although, the immortal deluxe car inventor has long since been gathered to his fathers, his ideas even in the matter of uniforms, bear fruit to this day.
These service bars are the silent signs by which the Pullman patron can always more or less tell the type of conductor or porter with whom he comes in contact. Furthermore, not only are these marks helpful as distinguishing agencies, but many instances happen during the course of a year in which they indirectly help to smooth over little misunderstandings which crop up between patron and employee.
An illustration of this was recited by a veteran porter not long since. The passenger, it seems, wanted something done which the porter refused to do. The passenger insisted, asserting at the time that at the porter did not comply with his request, he, the passenger, would write the company about it. But had the porter done as he was requested, he would have been violating a company's rule. It was while the porter was explaining this that the passenger happened to note the number of service bars he wore.
"Porter, how many years do each of these service strips represent? inquired the complaining patron
"Five, sir," replied the porter
Well," remarked the patron, "that it is been in the Pullman service 25 years?"
Well," remarked the patron, "that it is a Pullman service 25 years?"
"Yes, sir, that's just what it means, sir, answ
Indeed," ruminated the patron, more to be benefit of the porter," any one who can hold any years must surely know something about the rule.
It's a frequent occurrence to hear a porter tell aenger ask as to how many years service the harte note, and when he tells him he remarks, "Isn't that sort of expression of that kind
In giving its conductors and porters, who have ten years and more, two uniforms a year, the Pullman something which no other railroad corporation or corporations of any nature do, for the uniformed of these two uniforms save the recipient at least $520 cash
Some of the recipients have been heard to say that giving free uniforms is legally compulsory when having been incorporated in the will of the late news makes no mention of this in its narration, and of this assertion is a fact
However, it makes no difference how the prairient thing is that it does. In this respect, it is the average recipient, conductor or porter, really an extent one would, ordinarily expect him to professions on the subject heard when the uniform is like everything else that comes free, the rant give it much thought
In striking contrast to this general attitude of use of a Memphis porter, on receiving his first porter's letter to his district superintendent, the appreciated the gift, which inspired the article in this letter, it appears, was such a rare expreinterintendent to receive from a free uniform the assistant general manager of the Pullman for his edification. This official, at seems, with the spirit that actuated the letter, and wrote us
The fine spirit expressed in Porter Bacon's letter on the occasion of turning over to him his freshing and appreciated."
"Yes, sir, that's just what it means, sir, answered the veteran. Indeed," ruminated the patron, more to himself than for the benefit of the porter," any one who can hold a job for twenty-five years must surely know something about the rules of that job."
It's a frequent occurrence to hear a porter tell of having some passenger ask as to how many years service the hars on his uniform denote, and when he tells him he remarks, "Isn't that wonderful," or some sort of expression of that kind.
In giving its conductors and porters, who have been in the service ten years and more, two uniforms a year, the Pullman Company does something which no other railroad corporation does, and which few corporations of any nature do, for the uniformed employee. Moreover, these two uniforms save the recipient at least $52 a year in hard cold cash.
Some of the recipients have been heard to say that this practice of giving free uniforms is legally compulsory with the company, it having been incorporated in the will of the late founder. The Pullman News makes no mention of this in its narration, and it is really doubtful of this assertion is a fact.
However, it makes no difference how the practice prevails, the important thing is that it does. In this respect, it is a question whether the average recipient, conductor or porter, really appreciates the gift to the extent one would, ordinarily expect him to. Rarely are any expressions on the subject heard when the uniforms are being handed out. Like everything else that comes free, the recipients, apparently, give it much thought.
In striking contrast to this general attitude of ingratitude, is the case of a Memphis porter, on receiving his first free uniform. It was a porter's letter to his district superintendent, telling him how much he appreciated the gift, which inspired the article in the Pullman News. This letter, it appears, was such a rare expression of thanks for interintendent to receive from a free uniform man, that he sent the assistant general manager of the Pullman Company P. L. for his edification. This official, it seems, was highly pleased with the spirit that actuated the letter, and wrote the Memphis official thus:
The fine spirit expressed in Porter Bacon's letter to you on April 21 in the occasion of turning over to him his first free uniform is refreshing and appreciated."
Porter Bacon's letter read in part as follows:

Mr Taylor presented to me this morning my first free uniform from the Pullman Company, which I appreciate more than I am able to express. I wish to thank the Pullman Company for this beautiful suit and will endeavor to prove how much I appreciate it by render it the very best in me.
So after all, there is one porter, anyway, who values the free uniform.
Sees Patience Being Abused
Andrew P. Condy, who might be best described as a Pullman fundamentalist has been quiet for some time regarding the various assaults made on his employer regarding its industrial relations with its porters but the latest attack along this line has again aroused theire of worthful veteran. He thinks the American Federation of Labor recent onslaught is not going to help to improve those relations and he sees the patience of his employer being tried to the point that veteran writes this column as follows: I always had a bet on this man Green. No matter how interested he may have in the Pullman porters, this interest did not give him licence to the Pullman Company as he did. Furthermore he was not
OUT OF TOWN CORRESPONDENCE
OUT OF TOWN CORRESPONDENCE
speaking for all the porters by any means.
The level headed men in the porter's group realize that there is much improvement to be desired in various phases of our industrial relations, but much of this improvement is going to pass each year. Such high handed and insulted for attacks will not help to this settlement, but they will have the worst of retarding.
As a matter of fact a corporation no matter what its employees are black or white will tolerate being bulldozed into the air its employees. For instance, all one has to do is recall the subway workers strike fizzle. All these workers were white and they labored for a partly owned city plant, yet even the poor old Interborough management would not stand for being industrially black jacked by these labor bosses. If that couldn't be done to this teebear corporation, in behalf of white workers what chance have these bosses to do to the Pullman company in behalf of its trainees workers.
While on this subject something might be said regarding our esteemed and Christian-hearted ministers in Hariam, in a Negro centre in which all the business is done by very national under the sun but Negroes these tea herds of Peace on Earth and Goodwill to All Men saw fit to join in the attack on a corporation that has given and still gives employment to Negroes, not only in America, I respect their both, but I regret I cannot extend this feeling to their sense of right, tan play and diplomacy.
As a final word, I say this: The Pullman company has to have porters but they don't have in Negro porters. You can, I the elephant too often sometimes.

and Colored Citizens Join With Mound Bayouans In Observing 42nd Birthday of Town's Founding
istinguished Men and Women From All Parts Assist In Demonstration Which Is Marked As Big "Home-Coming" For Absent Ones Mound Bayou. Miss.—The whole Delta is enusiastically talking about the big home-coming celebration commemorating the forty-second anniversary of the founding of Mound Bayou town and colony, held from July 7 to 13. The historic and highly successful affair was under the direction of the Mound Bayou Foundation, but the two races of his section took an active interest in the exercises.

the construction cost of all four of New York City's biggest bridges. or more than the cost of the great Holland Tunnels. This new capital is being invested in New York City this year for telephone-plant construction. Vast sums for this purpose are a continuous requirement. They have averaged more than $48,000,000 in each of the past five years. The city's 160 central offices with their complex equipment, the millions of miles of exchange and toll wire, the thousands of miles of subways, ducts and cables—these are among the vital features for whose enlargement, improvement, and replacement $1,000,000 must be provided every six days.
To cease this work for a single week would seriously impair the quality and range of service demanded by the growing metropolis. Its telephone requirements increase dav by dav. Only by constant planning ahead, and by continuous construction, can its future needs for an even more complete, more dependable service be met.

What originally was intended as an occasion of importance to stimulate the economic and civic development of this far-trained Nero community turned into a celebration of vital concern to the inhabitant of the entire Delta never in history have colored and ethnic people of this fertile agricultural region joined hands on so large a scale in a similar project which attracted to Mound Bayou during the week hundreds of visitors.
Both Races Cooperate
Restoration or the fact that of the great Delta is to prosper and become an industrial centre second to none in the Southland it is to be by the joint efforts of the two races—a note of cooperation and friendliness—was sounded by speakers at every session budging from the outspoken utterances of outstanden, white men who made addresses this part of Mississippi, at least on the threshold of a new day.
What was regarded highly significant as to appreciation shown in Mound basson taking the initiative in this forward movement was a letter from L. V.

Mob-Driven Negroes Return Home Safely To North Platte, Neb
Special To The New Pork Age.
North Platte, Neb.—With Governor Arthur Weaver of Nebraska demanding the safe return to the city of Negroes driven out by mobs late Saturday and Attorney General (A Sorensen starting an investigation into the racial disturbances, authorities here expected no further trouble as the refugees returned to North Platte).
The city's entire Negro population of 200 was run out of the town and threatened with death if they returned by a maddened mob or whites when Patrolman Edward Green was shot and killed by Louis Seeman, a Negro who escaped while he was being arrested. A mob quickly gathered around the Negro's house and demanded that he give himself up. He curnered him in the basement of a chicken hut disenched it with gasoline and set it on fire. When he failed to come out, they scattered the fire and bound that he has committed suicide. Immediately the mob went on a rampage and drove out to town all the Negro living there.
Several returned on Monday when the Governor's protection was promised them and it is estimated that almost all the Negro population is back one again. Gov. Weaver ordered State Sheriff R. Cordit to take charge of the situation and attorneys General Secronom has ent'lvd Dort assistant attorneys general to investigate
Two Stores Collapse In Montgomery, Ala. Injuring 3 Persons
Two Stores Collapse In Montgomery, Ala. Injuring 3 Persons
Special To The New York Age
Montgomery, Ala.-Only three persons were injured, so far as could be determined in the complete collapse during lunch hour Monday of two old threeperson business buildings in Dexter avenue, near the State Capitol. The fact that Montgomery stops making almost altogether during the eating period is believed responsible for the small number of casualties.
George Detourby, white manager at the Pizitz Dry Good Store suffered a broken left hand and a dislocation of the left shoulder. Luma Brown Cevator operator, and Henry Linson, sanitor, both Negroes, employed in the store were so severely injured that they were not expected to live.
The other store collapsing was the Bullock Brothers which adopts a 20-foot excavation. The Bullock store collapsed to the ground and let the debris had alighted the Front store also collapsed.
It is estimated that about 75 people were in the stores when they collapsed and that damage was $20,000.
