Bruseaux of Chicago, in his investigation of the affairs of the order, has uncovered here a question which may be of far-reaching consequences in the effort to oust J.

Bruscaeu. Pocketed The Charges. The charges he disallowed, were brought by Hawkey Lodge, No. 100, one of the oldest lodges in the order. They were said to be filed with Joseph H. James, grand esteemed lighthouse, of Jacksonville Fla., as provided in the constitution and by laws of the order. Mr James pocketed these charges. it has been learned and nothing was done to bring Mr. Wilson to trial until the time within which the charges could be heard had expired. Abtrary and desogotic actions of Grand Exalted Ruler Wilson were the cause of the filing of the charges against him. Mr. Bruseaux explained. The grand exalted ruler suspended Hawkey Lodge and revoked its charter without notice he said. There had been no charges filed against it. Suspended Hawkeye Lodge The lodge had suspended two of its members. W J. Shepherd and J. C. Browne, for alleged violations of the laws of the order in the conduct of affairs of the Middle Western Association of Elks. The suspended members filed no notice of appeal Grand Exalted Ruler Wilson, however, ordered their suspension set aside, and their restoration to membership. The lodge protested and served notice that it would appeal to the grand lodge. Then followed its suspension. Grand Exalted Ruler Wilson was charged with conspiracy to violate the laws of the order. The complaint against him alleged that the suspension of the charter of Hawke's Lodge violated of the law because no charge had been tried against the lodge, and that the order to restore the suspended members to membership was a violation of law because the had not appealed. Basis of Trouble At the basis of this trouble, said Mr. Brusseau, "T believe, is the avarice of Grand Exalted Ruler Wilson, which has characterised his administration of the affairs of the order since his election in Newark N. J., in 1922. "There is an example of forcemate evidence substituting my charge, that in addition to the $10,000 he received last year from the treasury of the order, the lodges contributed an additional $10,000 to him.

VIRGINIA ELKS GIVE OVATION TO CASPER HOLSTEIN Conference At Buckroe Beach Endorses New York Man's Race VIRGINIA ELKS GIVE OVATION TO CASPER HOLSTEIN Conference At Buckroe Beach Endorses New York Man's Race Prominent members of the Independent Order of Elks, representing Iqdges in Tidewater Virginia, District of Columbia, and Baltimore, declared in conference Sunday at Bayshore Hotel, Buckroe Beach, that they favored a change am informed. charged Hawkeve Lodge the sum of $100 for his visit to Des Moines in May, 1928, to attend the convention of the Middle Western Association of Elks. The Lodge had already gone on record as disavowing responsibility for his visit or expenses. But when it developed that the Association was unable to make this compulsory, contribution of $100 he publicly upbraided the officers of Hawkeve Lodge and demanded payment of the lodge under penalty of suspension. Nonest Men Needed "But the order is awakening From every section of the country I am receiving letters of commendation for my exposure of the corruption that has existed The effort to clean out the officers who have squandered the funds of the order and replace them with Elks who will give an honest administration of affairs is meeting with the approval of the trunk and file of the Order "There is, however, one handicap It is the placing of henchmen on grand lodge payrolls. If Grand Exalted Ruler Wilson can be forestalled from corrupting the grand lodge in this manner, his defeat at Atlantic City will result "My one message to the lodges immediately preceding the time for the election of delegates is to choose honest men who will stand up and vote their conviction, men who cannot be bribed or brownbeaten, men who will not clamor for the paltry pay of $7 a day as members of committees and do the bidding of this caar of Elkodom "I honorable and" courageous delegates are chosen. I shall have no fear of the outcome of the Grand Lodge session in August." in the head of the administration of the, Order. Opposition to the reelection of J. Finley Wilson as Grand Exalted Ruler for an eighth term was almost unanimous Extravagance, mismanagement, and the dissipation of the assets of the organization were charged to the Wilson regime Holstein Gets Ovation. Casper Holstein. New York, whose friends are supporting him to succeed. Wilson was present and received a great ovation when presented to speak. Holstein, a quiet, unostentatious man of middle age, is a power in the organization and has a large and enthusiastic following. His financing of the magnificent $300,000 Elks Apartments in New York brought him into national prominence. His backers are depending upon him to put the wavering finances of the Order back on their feet. "I Finley Wilson's rule or run policy, his self perpetuation, vitiation of the treasury, his subsidization of votes, have become known to Negro Elkdom from Liberia to Canada, from California to Cuba," declared Mr Holstein. "My friends have persuaded me to oppose and overthrow him, on a platform of 'It is more blessed to give than to receive' and 'service is its own reward'" Dues Raised From 25 to 60 Cents. In the seven years of his dynasty, J Finley Wilson according to his opponents, has held Negro Elkdom in the palm of his hand, ruled with an iron fist, and dispensed patronage with golden fingers. Under his administration Mr. Holstein charges, the treasury balance has shrunk from $60,000 to $4,000, despite the fact that individual dues have been increased from 25 cents to 60 cents, and membership has increased from 100,000 to more than 200,000. Will Serve Without Pay to the "It is more-blessed-to-give-train-to-receive" platform is based on Mr. Holstens offer to accept the grand-exalted culpability without salary and his charge that Mr. Wilson has devoted most of his energy while in office to "receiving" As Mr. Holstens puts to "Finley Wilson says Negro Elkdom has become prosperous I say Finley Wilson has become prosperous It Was A Holstein Meeting The conference organized with W.

B. P. O. E. of W., see in a recent action taken by J. Finley Wilson, grand exalted ruler, an effort on part of that official to "get back" at the lodge because of the candidacy of its exalted ruler, Casper Holstein, to succeed Wilson as head of the Order. Monarch Lodge, sometime ago, suspended a member, Frank Meyer, in accordance with the Order's laws, and when Meyer appealed to the district deputy, W.

But in further accordance with the law, Monarch Lodge appealed from the district deputy's order, which appeal automatically stopped action with regard to reinstating Meyer. But under date of July 2 the grand exalted ruler, under seal of the grand lodge, sent an order to Monarch Lodge, giving ten days in which to show cause why the mandate issued by McDaniel had not been complied with, following his reversal of the lodge's action in suspending Meyer. To this order, Monarch Lodge through its officers Casper Holstein exalted ruler, and Russell West executive replied under date of July, demanding any failure to comply with the grand lodge law citing the law to show that they had no time limit to appeals, and that not even the grand exalted ruler has the power to arbitrarily disluate the only The letter from Monarch Lodge is as follows: July 6, 1929 1.

This District Deputy's ruling for the restatement of brother Myers has not been ignored in that said Deputy and the defendant brother Myers have been notified that Monarch Lodge appeals from the Deputy's ruling and Monarch Lodge wishes to call our attention to Article VI on page 50 which is under the caption of opinions.

Monarch Lodge feels that it is beyond the power of any member to the Order including the Grand Exalted Ruler to arbitrate, dictate the policy to pursue. Therefore Monarch Lodge requests of you the Grand Exalted Ruler to point out in any part of the Constitution or By-laws where there has been a violation, and until such time as you as head of this Order can interpret the law differently to sections and articles as prescribed by the Grand Lodge it is best that you can understand that Monarch Lodge a Sovereign lodge subject to the mandate of the Grand Lodge and the law Therefore it is best for the Grand Exalted Ruler to adopt the hands off policy unless you can point out any violation of the laws Fraternally CASPER HOLSTEIN Exalted Ruler RUSSELL WEST Former Slaves Attend Barbecue, Conference At Birmingham School Burningham Ala.

Is Scene of Vain Efforts of Rivals Cappahosie, Va — The summer home of Dr. Robert R Moton and Mrs Moton, or Tuskegee Institute, Ala. located here on the banks of the York River is becoming a centre of piscatorial activity through the efforts of various visitors to wrest the crown of fishing champion from Dr Moton. The race, at this point is some four miles wide, and is reached from the house by a short stroll over a beautiful sloping lawn which turns down to a fine beach at the waters edge. A number of row boats and a gasoline launch afford easy facilities for reaching the fishing grounds and Dr Moton and those in this guest with an Isaak Waltonination spend hours in the intriguing pastime of luring the finny fish to take the bait offered them.

The Negro Workman In The South The Negro Workman In The South . (Greenabore, N. C. Daily News) Editor in the Daily News. In the last paragraph of the editorial appearing on The Daily News, Sunday June 10, under the caption A. White Mars Down referring to the inferior pressure in Mount Arsy resulting in colored brick masonry being compelled to quit work on a building recently because the white masonry refused to work with them are the following significant words. If southern people wish to find out why a good man northern and western people lack a troubled eye on the treatment of the Negro in the South, they consider such problems as this. And furthermore the conspiracy is alleged to have been organized by a so-called praacher who claims to be a despair of our Lord and Master who while yet on earth, taught Peter the lesser that He was no responder of persons. The late Dr Booker T Wash ington during his interracial good will campaign 25 years ago more than anyone his species said. "Whatever you be, the sins the South will call upon to answer for must be remembered that when it comes to buying a pare and am- ple the South will call upon the Negro man's chance Negro carpenters blacksmiths painters and artisans are a rather north of Mason and Dixon's line. That the northern mechanic may let you eat and, per- haps, some time sleep with him but he will not let you work with him." But a more charge men like re- tune with them. Therefore, "D Washington will be the these latter days, we would be obliged to modify the above mentioned statement somewhat Dr George T Winston, when president of the University of North Carolina, in the early nineteen, once wrote an article on "The Prospective Industrial Conflict in the South." In this anticipated conflict, he professes to foresee a situation more serious and aggravating between white and colored artisans than obtained when the Negro was in his political glory.

There are signs that a new day is dawning for the people of Mississippi, a state which has hitherto been regarded, and not without substantial reason, as angering in the hinterland of American civilization. The occasion that revealed this promise of better days for the Delta, is the region located in the valley of the Mississippi is called, was the celebration of the fortysecond anniversary of theounding of the town of Mound Bayou. Primarily an attempt to stimulate the economic and civic development of this historic Negro community, the celebration assumed a broader feature in its relation to the vital interests of the inhabitants of the entire Delta. This was evidenced by the tenor of the oechees made by citizens of both races, who seemed to realize the fact that if the Delta is to prosper and become an industrial center, it must be by the efforts of all combined. This note of cooperation and friendliness was sounded by outstanding white men, who are closer concerned with the development of that section. One of the most significant addresses emphasizing this policy was made by Oscar Johnson, president of the Delta and Pine Land Company, known as one of the most courageous champions of fair dealing with the Negro. His company acted as host at a barbecue and picnic which was one of the unique features of the celebration. When such men as Mr. Johnson, who was some five thousand tenant farmers on the company holdings, bodily advocates the practice of square dealing with his employees and who avows his belief that education makes a better worker, there is ground for the hope that better days are in store for Mississippi. It shows that the white people who think and reason, see that the best method of bringing about material development is through giving equal opportunities to both races. The development of the Delta affects both races, and the only feasible way to carry it to a successful issue is for both races to have part in it on fair terms. It may be only enlightened self-interest or at most a sense of fair play and justice aroused by so long a period of domination by ignorance and oppression, but it would seem that the best minds of the whites in Mississippi are in a mood to give the Negro a fair deal. They have realized the futility of callous exploitation of an oppressed group as a means of internal development. Such a policy only leads to the brutality and degeneration of the oppressor and the decadence of the civilization that permits it. This is apparent in the backward state of Mississippi in the scale of modern civilization. It will take men of courage and progressive methods to change existing conditions and make a new departure along better lines. It looks as if Mississippi has this type of leaders and that the found Bayou celebration gave them a starting point. May Mississippi continue to grow and prosper in this new mood of fair play for its Negro citizens!

One day last week a committee of seven hundred citizens, headed by August Heeksher, the wellknown philanthropist of some eighty years, waited upon Mayor Walker and asked him to run for re-election. Some forty reasons were presented why the Mayor should again make the race, after the reading of which, Mr. Walker smilingly assented with the words, "Who could say 'no'?" This settles the question whether Mayor Walker will be the Democratic candidate for mayor; if there ever was any doubt as to that point: The program upon which he will run, as embodied in the forty reasons advanced by the committee, is largely a record of city improvements and building projects, for which the mayor is given the credit. Among them may be cited.

The program upon which he will run, as embodied in the forty reasons advanced by the committee, is largely a record of city improvements and building projects, for which the mayor given the credit. Among them may be cited. 1. $1,000,000,000 city owned subway program 2. A public school program on $1,000,000,000 of construction and maintenance including high and elementary schools. 3. A new group of buildings for Hunter College. 6. Millions spent for improvement of parks and development of new parks system. 7. An additionally large number of playgrounds. Old schools obtained large playgrounds and new schools are constructed with large playgrounds. S school athletic centres constructed. Park playgrounds added and improved. 8. Greatest hospital program in history of any municipality. 9. Prison reforms. New correctional buildings constructed, and others under way, including the Women's House of Detention. 10. West side improvements, involving elimination of 'Death Avenue' by the new buildings, been improved by the construction of new library buildings and other new buildings are now being constructed. Many other projects of lesser magnitude were listed including the first municipal housing program on Chrystie street, a new municipal airport, three thousand additional men for the police force, new ferry boats, extension of the water supply and other additions to the city facilities for street cleaning, fire fighting, charitable activities and other civic demands. Credit was claimed for maintaining the validity of the subway contract, involving the maintenance of the five cent fare, although that matter is yet to come up in the State courts for adjudication. That the Republican opposition to Mayor Walker may concentrate on the heavy increases in the budget expenditures was foreshadowed by the comment attributed to County Chairman Koenig, who was quoted as saying.

That the Republican opposition to Mayor Walker may concentrate on the heavy increases in the budget expenditures was foreshadowed by the comment attributed to County Chairman Koenig, who was quoted as saying. "The Mayor can't get away with that stuff about the budget. I doubt very much that the taxpayers will continue to foot the bills just because it gives little Jimme Walker a little pleasure. His delight in his own extravagance may not be so plausible to others." Of course calling the Mayor "Little Jimmy Walker," is intended to belittle him and his program in the estimation of uninformed voters, so it will remain for Mr. Walker and his adherents to justify the expenditure of the people's money by pointing to the visible results that have been obtained for it. In the meantime there does not appear to be any strong Republican anxious to contest Mayor Walker's candidacy, unless we accept the redoubtable Congressman LaGuardia, who was once elected President of the Borough of Manhattan. But the Republican machine does not appear to regard his candidacy with any great amount of enthusiasm. TO SHARE PROHIBITION BURDEN. The letter written by George W. Wickersham, chairman of the Law Enforcement Commission appointed by President Hoover, on the proposition that the States should share the prohibition enforcement burden with the Federation government, has aroused considerable comment from both wet and dry sources. The letter was addressed to Governor Roosevelt of New York, who read it before the conference of Governors gathered at Eastern Point, Conn. The twenty-two governors attending the conference refused to heed Mr. Wickersham's suggestion, that the conference might well approach the Federal government on some feasible plan for the states to share the prohibition enforcement burden with the Federal government." Both wet and dry shied at sharing the responsibility. The fact that Mr. Wickersham is chairman of the President's Commission on Law Enforcement is responsible for the belief that his letter was written with the President's approval. It was pointed out in Washington, that except for one phrase, the Wickersham letter would seem to stand for more rigid enforcement instead of for a modification of the law, as now interpreted. That sentence about which the controversy now rages leads as follows.

It was pointed out in Washington, that except for one phrase, the Wickersham letter would seem to stand for more rigid enforcement instead of for a modification of the law, as now interpreted. "That sentence about which the controversy now rages reads as follows. "If the National Government were to attend to presenting importation, manufacture and shipment in interstate commerce of intoxicants, the States undertaking internal police regulations to prevent sale, saloons, speakeasies and so forth, the national and State laws might be modified so as to become reasonably enforceable, and one great source of demoralizing and presumably profitable crime removed." It is the proviso as to reasonable enforcement being left to the State authorities that caused the seasoned politicians to perceive a "feeler" in the measure, which might be construed as leaving the amount of enforcement to the discretion of the State authorities. The authority that would permit this division of the power of enforcement is found in the amendment that declares "Congress and the several States shall have concurrent power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation." Senator Walsh of Massachusetts, a wet Democrat, thought that Mr. Wicker- It is the proviso as to reasonable enforcement being left to the State authorities that caused the seasoned politicians to perceive a "feeler" in the measure, which might be construed as leaving the amount of enforcement to the discretion of the State authorities. The authority that would permit this division of the power of enforcement is found in the amendment that declares "Congress and the several States shall have concurrent power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation." Senator Walsh of Massachusetts, a well Democrat, thought that Mr. Wickerham's views might be interpreted as a sign that there is hope for an eventual return to sanity on the consideration of prohibition questions. Senator Caraway of Arkansas an outstanding dry, declared on the other hand that prohibition suffered the worst blow from the Wicker- sham statement, that it had received since the law was first written on the books. With this diversity of opinion as to the States sharing the burden of prohibition enforcement, it is not strange that the twenty-two governors shrank from taking any side in the matter. And yet it is a question that cannot be continually evaded. Unless the States do take up this burden and employ the police power of the State to enforce the law, it will remain unenforceable. And if the State does take up the burden of enforcement, it may do so in such wise as the people through their state authorities consider advisable. memorial to one who reached the of the theatrical would be most ap THE AG Capitalized "Neg In Detro Editor of The New Lester A.

What was described as "the biggest shake-up yet," took place at police headquarters last week, in which higher officials were transferred from one post to another, from the Bronx to Brooklyn and from Manhattan to Richmond, and similar shuffling of assignments from Bowling Green to Canarsie. It is by such sudden transfers of inspectors and other police officers that vigilance and energy are supposed to be maintained, according to the theory invented to account for the changes of personnel. The late Commore Bennett, when proprietor of the New York Herald, had a similar theory, which accounted for many sudden changes in the editorial staff of that paper. Whether this policy of sudden change has the effect of stimulating men to do their best, whether newspaper workers or police officials, we do not really know, but evidently the dictators of these institutions believe in its efficacy. If it simulates the officer or the writer to earlier efforts in new surroundings, that much might be scored in its favor. On the other hand, it may work changes that cause regret on the part of the average citizen, who may have come to regard with favor the police head of his district, the patrolman on his beat, or the traffic officer at the corner crossing. The residents of Harlem have cause or regret in the transfer of Police Inspector Thomas Ryan, whose efficient oversight and broadminded policies did much to reassure them as to the maintenance of law and order in this part of the city. Inspector Ryan will undoubtedly render similar efficient service in the part of the city where his transfer carries him, and earn equal goodwill from the community which enjoys his protection. His successor in the Harlem district will have the same cooperation from the good citizens that Inspector Ryan received. He will find a district not difficult to police, nor differing in any important respect from the police problems presented in other parts of the city. Most of the police captains assigned to Harlem precincts recognize his fact and learn that human nature is much the same, regardless of differences of color or race. Harlem has learned to accept changes in police personnel with the utmost quanimity, so long as the policies pursued are broadminded and just.

Whether this policy of sudden changes has the effect of stimulating men to do their best, whether newspaper workers or police officials, we do not really know, but evidently the dictators of these institutions believe in its efficacy. If it stimulates the officer or the writer to greater efforts in new surroundings, that much might be scored in its favor. On the other hand, it may work changes that cause regret on the part of the average citizen, who may have come to regard with favor the police head of his district, the patrolman on his beat, or the traffic officer at the corner crossing. The residents of Harlem have cause for regret in the transfer of Police Inspector Thomas Ryan, whose efficient oversight and broadminded policies did much to reassure them as to the maintenance of law and order in this part of the city. Inspector Ryan will undoubtedly render similar efficient service in the part of the city where his transfer carries him, and earn equal goodwill from the community which enjoys his protection. His successor in the Harlem district will have the same cooperation from the good citizens that Inspector Ryan received. He will find a district not difficult to police, nor differing in any important respect from the police problems presented in other parts of the city. Most of the police captains assigned to Harlem precincts recognize this fact and learn that human nature is much the same, regardless of differences of color or race. Harlem has learned to accept changes in police personnel with the utmost equanimity, so long as the policies pursued are broadminded and just FLORENCE MILLS' MEMORIAL.

Florence Mills has been dead over two years, and although a considerable sum of money has been raised to further the project, but little has been done to give tangible results. The committee or association having the matter in charge should be ready to formulate plans to carry out its purpose. There is plenty of room in New York for an institution of the kind suggested, and its establishment would be a boon to many women of the theatrical profession. The number of this class of artists is continually growing, it being augmented by ambitious aspirants from all sections of the country, who came to New York as the Mecca of their hopes. A: a fitting THE AGE READER'S FORUM memorial to one of the race who reached the top rounds of the theatrical ladder, it would be most appropriate. THE AGE REA Capitalized "Negro" In Detroit In 1903 Editor of The New York Age. Lester A. Walton committed a material miracle in an otherwise excellent treatise in a recent edition of The Age. Under the title, "Capitalizing the 'N' in 'Negro'," Mr. Walton wrote an article which, though long, was not too long by any means for that important item of Negro history; and that fact accentuates the importance of declaring the truth as to when and where white journalists and publishers began to print our race name, not contemptuously, but correctly. Mr. Walton was six hundred miles wrong in space and ten years wrong in time in saying, "This marked the beginning" (Springfield, Mass., and New York City in the year 1913) "to put 'Negro' on the same plane with other racial terms." The first white American newspaper that ever adopted the practice of capitalizing the proper noun and proper adjective in the title and Tribute of Detroit, Mirch.; and they simultaneously began to do so not later than the year 1903, the two names designating the afternoon and morning editions of the same paper Here is in brief the origin of this advance. A Sunday's edition of the Detroit Tribune—when the city's Negro population was exceedingly less than now—carried a feature, article treating of Detroit's, alleged elite of Negroes and enumerating them as the city's "forty damnities" of eminent Negroes. When I read the article and therein found the names of Mrs Mabel Dammond (deceased) and myself among those of the Negroes, I found myself wrote a letter to the Tribune editor denouncing him. I then said that had I known that such an article was contemplated I should have instigated that the Dammond family be omitted from the article. I made it clear that my sole reason for resenting his writing consisted in his hypocrisy in writing statements which preyed were respectful, while in the statements themselves he repeatedly wrote my race name with a lower case "in." The Tribune without delas published both my and the same edition long editorial concerning it. The Tribune editor, in his concluding paragraph assured me that whenever thereafter the word "Negro" would occur in the News or Tribune it would be spelled with a capital "N." A few weeks later Mrs. Nellie (predeceased), who was prominent in Detroit Negro churches and society, caused the Detroit Journal to do what the News, and Tribune had begun. A few months still later the Detroit Times spatimately followed the Journal. I have the Tribune 1902 appeared in the year of either 1902 or 1903, positively know that it occurred in the year of either 1902 or 1903. From this it follows that the city of Detroit may justly claim the distinction of producing the first four white periodicals that print our race name with a capital "X" WM H DAMMOND, 227 West 133th Street. Capital "N" For Negro Editor of The New York Age I read with a deal of genuine interest the article in your July 20th issue, Capitalizing the "N" in *Negro*, by Mr. Lester A Walton. The article has many sound conclusions. I am an advocate of the "N" capitalization of the word *Negro* because I believe that much respect is due a group of people whom custom has caused to be commonly designated by a non geographical term. Since the designation terms applied to the varied types and groups of people, other than us, have their initial letters graced with the dignity of capitalization, then I think in keeping with common dignity to capitalize the letter that begins the designation term by which we are recognized. But Mr. Editor, I think we should get away from the term Negro' all together. It does not mean enough in terms of correct and influential designation. Since all other peoples are tied up to a geographical designation, how we now use it is not clear. That is why they can't take away from us if they insist upon a sorting out, then let them call us *Colored Americans*. I have adopted that term in our paper. The Newark Herald Why pick on us by insisting that we be identified by some word denoting color. Or white, yellow, red, brown and black, the only one needed out for special unkind identities. The word black is saddened upon us because it has its origin from word roots meaning black. Personally, I do not relish that brand of special privilege I would like to see America get to the place where she would simply recognize persons as persons and pay no need to race types nor groups, geographically or otherwise. "All God's Chullung" got feelings. What's the use of hurting anybody's feelings by assertions that snark of race or group superiority? "All men are created equal," means that God. Almighty does not think any more of one bunk of human flesh blood and bone than H does of another. Poor little starred all the "better than those" stuff. At any rate since the geographical designation is the style I vote for Colored American WILLIAM H MAXWELL. Editor The Newark Herald.

Boston, Auspices of Elks Editor of The New York Age: At Belshazzar's Feast a thousand dark nobles bent at his board, where fruits glistened, meats steamed, and a flood of wine man loveth, "ran redder than blood. Boston was devoid of the viands that appease the hunger, and no liquid refreshment was satisfy the men, that made the grandeur of the King's feast pale in insignificance. Under the auspices of the 1, B. P. O. E. of W, the final oratorical contest for the Elks scholarship in District number one was held in Butler Hall, Masonic Temple, Thursday evening, July 11, 1929. There were eight young aspirants for scholarship honors. The contestants were judged on knowledge of their subjects; the logic of their reasoning, their platform, poise and their delivery. The contestants and subjects were W. N. Y. Susie Robinson, Brooklyn, N. Y. 14 years, "The Constitution and Slavery. Miss Lucile Cromer, Brooklyn N. Y, 17 years, "The Constitution and Citizenship." Master Bernard Saunders, New ark, Del, 17 years, "Constitution and Citizenship." Miss Helen Beatryce Hayes, Wilmington, Delaware, 17 years, "The Constitution and Citizenship" Master Seaton W. Manning, Boston, Mass, 10 years, "The 14th Amendment and the Constitution" Master Charles S. Quick, Boston Mass, 17 years, "The Constitution and Citizenship" Master Ernest Perkins, Atlantic City, N. J., 18 years, "The Constitution and the Negro" At the finish of each aspirant's effort the applause by the gathering of four or five thousand persons was long and spontaneous, which said in effect, that the older heads felt that in laying the mantle of responsibility upon those young shoulders, they had no fear of failure. So Secken was the competition between the contestants, to the untrained mind, each and everyone of them deserve a prize consisting of a scholarship. There being only one in our gift, the judges awarded the prize to master Stenaton W. Manning of Boston, who received the congratulations of his fellow comrades in the struggle for supremacy. The Commonwealth Bad of 10 and 100 pounds and two classic selections to the delight and satisfaction of the audience. Referring to the oratorical abilities of the combatants, it is well that Demosthenes himself was not present, for he would have had to look well to his laurels, lest they be wrested from him by those prodigies of elicitation. The winner received a prize of two hundred and fifty dollars, and the rewarded dollars in the final contest the 4th Monday in August, should he win. Each competitor receives one hundred dollars in any event. After this brilliant demonstration of talent we must speak in most praiseworthy terms of the prime mover, who has worked night and day for the success of the great undertaking, Franklin H. Wright has been at the helm of this contest from its first inception and has pledged to a success. Mr. Wright has represented us in the Common Council here many times. He is now nominated for the House of Representatives, and as he is an Elk in high office, his ability as a public servant, together with his great experience in the political field, makes him a formidable foe to any advisors who may have the tements to oppose him. There are many other worthy citizens who have worked wholeheartedly to accomplish the desired end, and are a representative who, by virtue of this skillful coup, must command the admiration of the country. The commonwealth of Massachusetts has always been the vanguard from an educational standpoint, and we can rest neither on our past or present achievements if we would keep abreast of the Know New York State New York became a state on July 9th 1767, when the Provincial Convention assembled at White Plains approved the Declaration of Independence adopted at Philadelphia five days earlier. The first theatre in America was opened in New York City on December 9th, 1732, and the first American theatrical company ever to tour Europe was taken from New York by Augustus Daly in 1894. The only French ambassador to this country was to become an American citizen was Edmond Charles Genet. He took out naturalization papers, married the daughter of Governor George Clinton, and in 1794 settled near Jamaica. He and electric utility companies on the Empire State employ 100,000 men and women. This is a group equivalent to the population of Uruca. As late as 1804 the City of New York maintained a shipping post in City Hall Park where an owner could have his slave offered whipping and for a fee of 35 cents. The pet lions and gallows were both nearby. There are in New York State approximately three million telephones, three million gas meters and three million electric meters. No other that can equate the total earnings per worker in New York City are $167,747, while the average for the country as a whole is $198. The largest city is the manufacture of women's clothing. Speculating upon the measure of farm relief that Negro farmers may expect from recent legislation on that subject the Richmond St. Luke Herald said: ' When the Farm Relief Bill became law, the colored brother'sire became a bit cooler at the previous slight in the seeming certainty that of the qualified Negro agricultural specialists in this country, at least one of them would grace the Farm Relief Board. Dr. R. Moor the country's most outstanding Negro, and the race's leading authority on agricultural administration, was groomed for the position. Mr. Hoo-fillil said nothing but filled his board with white men. It was intimated that a lack of organization among Negro farmers disqualified them to have a "representative at court." Since the Negro farmer has no spokesman on the commission, whose duty it will be to give relief to farmers through the medium of loans aggregating $500,000,000, what may the Negro expect? Of course, political preferment is not what the Negro of this country desires most. His greatest needs are that he be given an "even break" with others of his fellow citizens and fellow taxpayers. If the Farm Relief Board will afford to the colored farmer the relief that he needs in proportion to that of the white tiller of the soil, there shouldn't be a murmur of protest from the ranks of the colored people of this country. They are waiting to see what the end will be. There appears to be great diversity of opinion as to the amount of relief that the Board can give the farmers generally. The plain dirt farmer will probably find that he must continue to diversify his crops and seek cooperation in marketing them. Seconding the suggestion of Edward H. Wright that Congressman De Priest "could suspend his speaking engagements with profit to himself and his race," the Norfolk Journal and Guide under the blunt headline, "De Priest Should Stop Talking," said Negatives in the South have been fighting their own bottles and with the support of some very strong allies among Southern white people, as well as of sane minds among both races outside of the South. No one can deny that the race has made substantial gains within the past few years. These are noticeable educationally, in some directions economically, and very definitely politically. The reaction of leading Democrats and the Democratic press to the recent reversal of the Virginia primary law was all that any reasonable person could expect. A few years ago the party leaders and their press would have gone intorage over Judge Grimer. The very division of the South along political lines—the last election afforded an opportunity for the absorption of the Negro electorate, writes drawing upon it Virginia, shows the way, had adopted an anti-lynching law. The race stands a fine chance to consolidate these gains if Longsman DePriest refrains from further argument with the South. It takes two to make an argument. If he will close, the others soon will talk themselves out. So we hope that he will cease talking, or that he will at least charge the line of speech-making he is now following. He is justifying the dire prophecies of those who said he was not of congressional timber and making it increasingly difficult for the "defense." As the popular conception of a Congressman involves the making of many speeches, it is possible that the new member from Chicago has been living up to that conception. Supporting the charge that our fraternal organizations are failing, the Chicago Roe instanced the following examples. We find the Elks at war with their exalted ruler, J. Finley Wilson, now under a cloud because of recent sensational charges of alleged graft and mismanagement of his administration. We find the k. of L. on Birmingham (Alabama) in the courts fighting to oust certain officials there charged with misuse of funds; we find unrest and murmurs of discontent in the ranks of the Supreme Lodge of Pythias, and agitation in most of the fraternals for refusal to pay another to the settlement of their frequent orders. Most of our legateans have become fossilized by the perennial rule of men who seek to live on the orders rather than for them, and by others who have piled up wealth at the expense of the orders. All of our fraternals are in need of of thorough investigation from top to bottom, if not through reorganization. If nothing is found wrong after a thorough examination, then well and good. If discrepancies and misuse are found, the culprits should not only be turned out of office, but prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. The wastefulness of our secret orders is the crime of the age. It should be stopped before they are wrecked and the last and only method of units outside of the charges left to our people destroyed. For years THE \GE has pointed out the propriety of bonding the officers of these organizations and requiring an annual audit of their accounts by expert accountants. --- Under the caption of "A Fair Field and No Favor, the Colorado Stateman of Denver had the following editorial comment on a recent athletic meet Hundreds of young men, the cream of athlete America, are in a titanic struggle in Denver this week—seeking championship honors along lines and runs for forth by the N. A. We look into the sea of faces of these stalwart athletes and among them we see the swarthy forces of our Negro contestants. Just think of it, four out of the hundreds looked and looked upon by thousands and thousand of admirers. But Thursday afternoon in the stadium of Denver University those four Negroes made it plain why they were there and graphically wrote into the story that this man the force of our aims and ambitions. When Eddie Tolan, Phil Edwards, and Eddie Godwin took championship honors from a great field of contestants and before ten thousand or more spectators, each of them spoke more eloquently for our cause than could a hundred or gifted writers. Each of our heroes were in positions of opportunity, not because of color, but from ability alone. They were measuring arms with the nation's best in what nothing more than a fair field, no favor. In this they but repeat the story we express every day of our lives and in many other ways. The Negro race is ready to measure arms in fair competition and take chances on the outcome in business, political and civic affairs, asking only that no bar be placed upon us because of color. The realm of sport as controlled by the A. A. U. recognizes merit above all and has no color complex. Had our racial entries been outstanded not a racial barrier would have ensured ours; we could only have pointed our chance. As it is, however, we hope all America will take note, in that we ask only a man's chance in any department of life and we will present champions just as capable as were the great Tolan, Edwards and Gordon. The absence of racial discrimination in the athletic field points the way for equal liberality in labor and industry. Until this is accomplished the freedom of American institutions will remain a doubtful quantity. Replying to a charge made by the Houston Gargoyle, a white, weekday, that "William Pickens, field secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, delivered a highly inflammatory address" in Houston, the Houston Informer said: The editor of The Informer was present when Mr. Pickens spoke here and there not one inflammatory remark or suggestion concerning that green and the Associate Editor Wright were there or any member of its staff, they escaped our gaze. Where, therefore did he get information about Pickens' "inflammatory address?" Pubishing a magazine which boasts of getting at the facts and telling the truth, it is surprising to observe how the associate editor of this "weakly" publication misstated the facts and misrepresented the Pickens' talk, made here recently at St John Baptist Church on Downing. Pickens did counsel the Negroes to organize their forces and pool their interest for breaking down the barriers of race prejudice and discrimination, but he emphasized the fact that such "fights" must be waged through the legal tribunals of the state and countries, and cited how the United States Supreme Court had outlawed Southern measure after measure which sought to take away the black race's constitutional and inherent rights, warranties and mergeratives. If this kind of speech is "inflammatory," "incendiation," "radical" or calculated to fan the fires of racial prejudice, we can not understand the white man's boasted sense of fairness justice democracy and Christianity ("Let us pray!") The Informer editor boldly declared that as long as there is a double standard of citizenship in this country, Negro speakers publicize and editors are going to oppose such an unusual and perverse system Commenting on the failure of a local herdsman's sale the Cincinnati Bureau said As matters now stand there are none of us who are not more of less culpable in regard to this failure. Some of us are ready to say that the failure was solely the fault of the management, the failure of the fault of the Negro public by deliberate carrion, their dollars elsewhere. We are in our business beginnings. We must give and take. The management must learn to put our intelligent effort into the conduct of business, and especially in that part of it which goes to please the public. The public must learn to help force the management into new channels by insisting upon equal to that given in the places where the business is public for the public and the one drawn for the management are parallel and of equal length. Any divergence or small short, will be unfair and daunting. It is hard for a "happy go-go" carefree "people" to bumble down to business, but it must be done by we make the grade. We are a peaceful people in the most shortest courts on earth. The wealth of education the culture that will make the Negro powerful must come together with the极imal channels of business and related intercourse with our fellows. In this age we find many in white friends with us that we program for Negroes and the way that through these programs the Negro will develop leadership. These programs are largely social and religious but it is significant that a white man is advancing a business program for Negroes. The Negro not taken into business colleges. The necessity for business development along practical lines is becoming more pressing in white separated communities. Of the continuous pressure some men will doubtless be required to meet the situation. CHURCH AND RELIGIOUS ACTIVITIES Grace Church of Harlem A large part of the congregation of St. Congregational Church attended Sunday morning services.

Olivet Baptist Church, was well attended. The text chosen by Rev. L. R. Henderson was "God In the Image Of Man. This was the seque from last Sunday's sermon concerning "Man in God's Image". He quoted 'Benburh' and ancient mythology concerning man's deserved feeling toward all things that were made for him and the origin of woman. He also explained the manner of man in wanting to see God. That is the reason men make graven images, etc. Men have always departed from the earth to something concrete. The people believed in the prophets in Abraham and Moses, set they wanted to see God for themselves. He referred to John 14:22 "He that hath seen me has seen the Father" Philip was now to com- prehend, as many of us are Jesus was the replica of God. He expa- sured that God looked like Jesus. His attitude towards the sunner, ex- ample was made of Mary of Mag- dala who washed the feet of Jesus with her tears and wiped them with her hair. He kissed the Jesus, in his faith in man and His attu- tions towards underprivileged ones in society, example the Samaritan woman at the well. Finally in His love for man, because He gave His Only Begotten Son, so that man may live. The second meeting in the Bible classes was held and the Henderson taught on the subject Paul's "Doctrine of salvation, which was inspiring Five representatives from the Philathea Bible class and three from the Barana Bible class attended the Federation of Bible Classes. Thursday evening, Jill B. and reported having an interesting session. There was an interesting session at the B. P U services. A young man who sang in the B. P U choir was reported downed and a song was sung in his memory. At the evening service Rey Henderson spoke from Matthew 8:4 "And behold, the white city came out to meet Jesus and when the saw Him, they beught Him that He would depart out of their coasts." He spoke of the ancient healer demons. He then spoke of the value of religion and that there are many people who compare the higher values with the baser common values and that not many desire to make the sacrifice to the kingdom of heaven.

A visitor told us that his impressive sermon was: WHERE TO GO TO CHURCH WHERE TO GO TO CHURCH --- know the things that come into your mind, everyone of them, saint the Eternal', God's fearful judgment was analysed and discussed in both ancient and modern times, and outline was made, the existing condition in our modern metropolis concerning the honour crimes, wars, inhumality, oppression of the poor, treachery, ignorance, of the wisdom and knowledge of the Almighty Power.

Paradise Baptist Church The services at Paradise were well attended Sunday morning. I want to see Jesus, was the theme used by Rev. W. H. Stanley To see Jesus gives one a higher print in thought and greater success. At 10 a.m. Paradise members enjoyed a very interesting lecture, together with Rev. Sally's members Rev Sally seemed to know the needs of the people and to feed them,ording's Rev Stanley spoke from St Matthew 21 chapter 10th verse at the evening hour. Rev Stanley, full of the spirit, opened the eyes of the enthused congregation with the honor that was bestowed to Jesus as He went into the city riding on a colt. In like manner we who are rulers, leaders should receive the same honor. A goodly number partook of the Lord's Supper. Next Sunday at 1 p.m. Rev Stanley will baptize several catholics who are anxious to put on the whole honor of Christ Thursday morning July 8.

Thursday the Sunday school went to Pelham Bay Park and had a wonderful time. It gave the mothers a day of rest and the children a day to romp around in the green meadows. Bethany Baptist Church At 10:30 a.m., the pastor preached to a large and appreciative audience, Text, Matthew 8.2 Subject "That the man sow in Jesus." The congregation was greatly inspired. The choir sang beautiful Mrs Leah Lucille Day, the cornetist is a valuable addition to the choir. Many out-of-town visitors attended the morning services. 7.45 p.m. Rev.

Siloam Presbyterian Church Dr George Shippen Stark, pastor Siloam Presbyterian Church, gave the morning message from Acts 4:13. In his discourse, the pastor brought out how personality is assimilated by long association as illustrated by the disciples of Christ. He also brought out the challenge to the church of today for lack of boldness Jesus Christ is the power in the world. Religion makes men better, helps the soul of man, religion looks for light. Mrs. Masana Tabbanoir of 416 Franklin avenue was received into the membership of the church at this service.

He was at bat six times in the two games and made six hits, including to doubles. Incidentally the Lincoln's won the double-header, getting a shutout in the first game by a score of 0.0, and taking the second by the huge score of 2.9 The Cubans made a desperate effort to break then losing streak in the first game, sending their pitching, act, Rosell, to the mound to oppose Holland. Except for a bad first innning when the I. Cubans made three hits and scored 2 runs. Rosell was insincere. He didn't allow a runner to get to third after the first innning, but Bill Holland was also in great form and he let the Cubans get to third only once during the game. In the eighth innning, Fernandez and Rosell led off with singles. Then Riggins' error caused the bases to be filled. Perez tied out to Smith who made a perfect throw from right field home, catching Fernandez at the plate. The next battle popped up. In the second game the I. Cubans tattered their batting averages after Ossar and Fabre. It was a fierce batting affair and was teared by the 12 two-hit hits.

The Savoy Ballroom, which has been operating in Harlem for over three and one half years and which has acquired the good will of the community because of its excellent and efficient service, assures us of the fact that the Alhambra Ballroom under the same management will be a very helpful institution in Harlem's social life. The Alhambra, unlike the Savoy, will cater exclusively to social clubs and organizations renting the ballroom for their exclusive use, but also furnishing for them all necessary needs for holding their dances. Because of the operation of both ballrooms it is obvious that the Alhambra will be rented for at least $100 less than any place in the City of New York. It will be possible for the management to have under its control at all times three or tour of the finest orchestras in America, enabling them to give to the club or organization securing the ballroom the best music available.

Mr. Johnson was introduced to the audience by the Rev Dr. George M. Plaskett of Orange and Montclair, who took occasion to pay a splendid tribute to the cultural work being done in the Jersey environs by Mr. Lamb, not only as a music master but also as a patron of the young Negro painter. In lieu of the prize-winning, Mr Johnson unveiled a striking canvas depicting a still life scene, which has also been purchased by the Forum, and which would have been presented at the fall opening next October had the disappointment not developed. Frederick Douglass Hogan, the reader, gave several splendid renditions, displaying considerable ability. He was handicapped, according to an announcement, having recently suffered a severe attack of pneumonia. This, perhaps, accounted for an apparent vocal weakness which made his utterances somewhat unintelligible to those in the rear of the hall. His histrionic interpretations were of a high order, and he was particularly effective in his renditions of scenes from Shakespeare's "Otello." This, as were other characterizations, was given in costume, faithful in coloring, style and design with the attire of the characters portrayed. Members of the Musical Art Forum assisted in musical numbers which were enjoyed by the good-sized audience which had assembled Burnerdene Mason, contralto, and Frederick Moss, tenor, collaborated in the "Robin Woman" duet from Cadman's opera, "Shanews, which they sang most effectively Anna Brown, mezzo soprano, displayed a voice that possesses elements of striking beauty in singing "Spring" by Rubenstein Then Mme. Louetta Chatman, coloratura soprano, who has not been heard recently on the Forum programs, sang "Queen of the Night" from Mozart's "Magic Flute." The final musical offering was a duet, "Tis Evening, from "Pique Dame" by Tscharkowsky. The accompaniments to all of these numbers were played by Cora Wann. Her in her usual meticulous and effective style. Following the program, the Art Forum served the entire audience with refreshments, a delightful and appreciated service which was inaugurated by the women of the group at studio recitals, and which they have carried on to other auditoriums. Ice cream, cake and punch were served to the general audience, and Mr. Lemb was host to a small party of special guests, including the guest artist, speakers and other friends. JULES BLEDSOE, DURING SUMMER REST PERIOD FROM "SHOW BOAT," STOPS THE SHOW AT PALACE WITH SINGING Jules Bledsoe, baritone, who was for months one of the main attractions in Ziegfeld's "Show Boat through his singing of the striking number Old Man River, was not permitted to devote the summer to rest, but at the closing of "Show Boat until fall, but was immediately to appear at the Palace as a headliner on the vaudeville bill. Mr. Bledsoe sang a group of songs with Justin Sandridge at the piano, and stopped the show with the magic of his voice. The theatrical week's Billboard, in its issue of July 15, published the following review of the colored singer's act. Bledsoe is the eminent Negro baritone under contract to Ziegh and a late feature of Show Boat. He also recorded the prologue of the Universal film of that name. Besides these most recent contributions toward attaining a "name rating, Bledsoe has appeared with success on the concert stage. He is a rich thoroughly appealing delivery. He has the typical melancholy of a top grade baritone and a complete stock of the tuba in the lower register to achieve the basis of that appeal upon which rests the whorehouse of a basso. On entrance here they gave him a big ovation. Without the usual gesticulators blah he did. The Song of the Volga Boatman. It would have been difficult to choose a better item as a saudeville opener. Followed with "Danny Rose, which brought out clearly his technical mastery of the liquid baritone tones. His interpretation in the original Yiddish and Hebrew of "Eh Flu" threw the house into winter with the appraisal With Molt. Picton here on her second week as his bimonthly right at the heart of the Piccon-drawn audience with this choice. For an encore he gave "Old Man River, apparently minded to avoid his erstwhile production connection unless the issue was forced on him at the viewing. Stopped the show again, but begged off. Bledsoe is a working art for the little houses. Might he put down as a class draw based on social interest. His pipe, are the darks but the boy has much to learn in the other essentials though his powerful delivers might make all other points trilling to comparison. But the last remains that Bledsoe is unmistakable and the token unimpressive in announcements pointily and warbling and not at all ease in his sitting dress. We have observed such features that he fixed up better in art or brillance. There, hope not. Bledsoe sandrudge turns he picture accompaniment. FIRST ANNUAL MUSICAL CHAUTAUQUA BY CHOIR OF ST. JAMES CHURCH, DR. CHARLTON, DIRECTOR, A RARE EVENT It was a program of unusual interest, rarely presented, that was heard by an audience that filled St. James Presbyterian Church, 141st street and St. Nicholas avenue, the Rev. William Lloyd Imes, pastor, on Sunday evening, July 21, the occasion being the first annual musical Chauquaaua presented by the church choir under directorship of Dr. Melville Charlton, A. A G. O., organist. Featuring the evolution of one phase of modern church music, an unusual element was that all of the compositions, both original and arrangements, were by Negro composers—Samuel Coleridge-Taylor, Harry I. Burleigh and Melville Charlton. The pastor, Dr. Imes, opened the tripartite program with a brief exposition of the phases of music to be exemplified—"Primitive Music," "Afro-American Folk Songs" and "The Reciprocal Action Between Afro-American and European Music." His illustrations, in each instance revealed him as possessed of a knowledge of musical lore in keeping with his attainment as an erudite minister of the gospel. As a matter of fact, though it may not be generally known, Dr. Imes is an accomplished musician. In illustrating primitive music, Dr. Charlton had the assistance of Mr. Labele Talafero Spiller, head of the Spiller Music School, who gave first a demonstration of native African rhythm by use of the companion in simulation of the natives' tom tom, a realistic performance, and then turned to the zylophone, in simulation of the marimba, with vocal arrangements, sung by the choir, of two African themes from the Coleridge-Taylor transcriptions for the pianoforte, "Take nabaji," a folk song, and "A ba boleki nwana" ("They will not lend me a child"). It was a striking rendition. Under "Afro-American Folk Songs," the second part, Dr Imes gave a brief review of the late Henry E. Krehbiel's monumental work under that same title, and the choir sang three of Burleigh's Spirituals "I hope my mother will be there." "Were you there?" and "Let us cheer the weary traveller." Dr. Charlton accompanied these with the organ and the singing of these numbers furnished one of the highlights of the evening. The third part of the program was devoted to the modern form entirely with an addition in the final number of the primitive atmosphere through combination of the tympan, with organ, in accompaniment to the voices Following the pastor's exegesis, which contained a fine tribute to the genius of the late and lamented Anglo-African composer, Coleridge Taylor, the choir sang Burleigh's anthem-form arrangement of The Lord's Prayer," a beautiful and soulful composition. Two selections from the sacred cantata, "The Atonement," one of the outstanding works of Coleridge-Taylor, were next sung, an air, "Pilate's Wife," by Mrs Doris Trotman, soprano soloist of the choir, and the trio, "The Three Marys" arranged by Dr Charlton for a sexette of women's voices, Miss Trotman, Miss Harris, Mrs Snow and Miss Fleunt, sopranos, Miss Heggie and Mrs Carr, contralto. Then followed the sonorous and climatic "Magnificat and Nunc Dimitis in F" by Coleridge-Taylor, the latter being sung first, perhaps with a view to the unusual and powerful dynamic effects attained through adding to the "Magnificat" an arrangement for the tympan made especially for this service by Dr. Charlton. This combination of the primitive atmosphere with an ultra-modern musical setting brought out with peculiar emphasis the fact that in his most advanced stages of construction Coleridge-Taylor still retained much of the native heritage that came to him through his father from a land he never saw. Mrs Spiller's work was of the most understanding sort, with the right quality of restrained emotion. The choir sang this number with splendid understanding, a meticulous interpretation, irreproachable attack, and a keen development of dynamic contrasts. The final number was the "Reiland Amen" by Burleigh, dedicated to Dr Karl Reiland, rector of St George's Church in which choir Dr Burleigh has been the harpone soloist for around thirty-five years. Sopranos—Mrs Ella Brice, Mrs Alice Brown, Mrs Christine Brown, Mrs Mildred Blount, Miss Sarah Graves, Miss Julia Greene, Mrs Irene Hall, Miss Marjorie Harris, Mrs Edith Jones, Mrs Edna Leach, Mrs Louise Mitchell, Miss Evelyn Richardson, Mrs Saline, Mrs Doris Trotman, Mrs Maude White, Mrs Ellen T Young, Wot—Mrs Sue Ella Carr, Miss Cora Heggie, Mrs A H Thorne, Mrs Marguerite Upshur, Miss Amy Goodwin, Tenor—Dr Henry (Blue, Samuel Minor, Benjamin Watkins, Bassos—John Cabey, Beng J, Ragsdale MUSICAL ART FORUM, ORANGE, GIVES UNIQUE PROGRAM IN EIGHTH ANNUAL CLOSING—ACQUIRES PRIZE PAINTING MUSIC NOTES For the eighth annual observance of the closing of the season work of the Musical Art Forum of Orange, N.J., held on Thursday evening July 18 at the Oakwood avenue Y W C A. Orange, Wilson Lamb, president and director, had arranged a program of unusual in time and decidedly unique. It was marked by the appearance in Shakespearean interpretations of Frederick Douglass Hogan, dramatic trader, of New York City, and it was intended also to include the final presentation of the Malvin Gray Johnson oil painting, Swing Street Chariot, which was the first prize winner in the annual exhibition sponsored by the Harmon Foundation held last January at International House, Riverside Drive, and which painting has been purchased by the Forum to hang upon the wall of the Wilson Lamb studio in the Metropolitan Life building, 310 Main street, Orange.

Through a combination of circumstances, not controlled by Mr. Lamb or Mr. Johnson, the formal presentation could not be made for that the painting has not as yet been released by the Harmon Foundation. Since the exhibit in January the entire art group has been sent on a country-wide tour to different cities that the people of these other towns might have the opportunity to witness the evidence of the race's art development. The original schedule for the return of the exhibit to New York City not later than it was on the basis of this arrangement that the pre-cursor for the 18th appears that the original program called for an exhibition in Philadelphia, which would have lasted until about July. I and have been the final showing. But the good-Philadelphians, reason or other, got cold feet on the proposition and failed to take part in the necessary financial guarantee. Consequently, the Fatherly Love could not have the attraction. Mr. George J. Haynes of the Federal Council of Churches, affiliated with the Harmon Fund officials in handling the exhibition in securing from St. Louis through my old friend John the Urban League in that city, the necessary financial support for the exhibit was shifted to that city for the period from but through some inadvertence. Mr. Johnson was not the change in schedule until after all arrangements had been made with Mr. Lamb and the Art Forum for the date of the close-term and formal presentation.

But past readers will recall that, among other things, this column expressed the opinion that the time would come when broadcasting would be done from the lofty air large orchestra of highly paid artists under an eminent conductor, such orchestra being "kicked up" by various dance palaces, to the extinction of hundreds of musicians. This has not yet actually occurred in a big sense. Mostly the writer thinks on account of the dreaded static, on which scientist and acoustical engineers every hour of the day are waging a persistent fight. But until static is defintely conquered the recording machines seem to be waging a strenuous campaign to keep the musicians subjective. This thought was forcibly brought to one's attention on reaching the summit of Bear Mountain after leaving the boat. Musical sounds struck the ears, and there where, up in last year, five musicians had been employed to render pay dance music for the patrons of Bear Mountain, was a machine on the musicians' stand, and up in the eaves were the loud speakers, sending forth the latest fox trots and waltzes. On the skating rink, a new acquisition was a duplicate machine, dispensing music for the customers. On the following day on a trip to Hook Mountain another popular excursion playground on the Hudson, there was another pesky machine in the dance pavilion, asailing the senses of the harassed machine on the musicians' stand, go on on the dance floor although dancing was costless. Every dance seemed to have a tacit understanding to wait until the human orchestra started operations. One stubborn musician insisted the machine was a radio and offered to hack his opinion with money. It was only when the writer induced the custodian to open the machine and its inward mechanism was laid bare that the stubborn one realized he would have lost his bet. The improved Vetrola—for that what it is—plays ten tunes and repeats an innermint. It needs no attention being automatic; just start or stop it—the machine does the rest. This electrical child of the 20th Century brings the trend of thought that it and, when its producing companys prepares upon the boat excursion owners to install the device on their boats, thousands of dollars will be lost to musicians in the summer season from this source. "Great Day" the Vincent Youman's show which is generally started with Fletcher Henderson's Orchestra, combined with a white group of musicians rotating 12 musicians in the pit orchestra and a mixed cast in the show has closed without plating on Broadway. It is reported that the book is weak and faults, and is being rewritten pointing to a readjustment and another opening in September. Miller and Lyles are also reported permanently out of the cast. Fletcher's orchestra has been sadly disrupted by the show, a previously recorded here only five of Fletcher's men having been retained in the show at its initial presentation. These five in hiding Fletcher were discarded later and the orchestra dwindled it is reported to about 10 white musicians. Fletcher's raped some men to together and played vauilleville ior a short time closing in Newark last week. Kaiser drummer for many years with Fletcher and alleged to be his right hand man, but secured another job and was not as a table to the vauilleville engagement. Fletcher Henderson is never suitable but seemed unduly resent in response to the Great Da- pisode. Perhaps it's better so.

That, the present writer realizes he is concerned, the activities, labor affairs, or any way see fit to join in labor movements to condone or condemn the matter from an impartial, holly without grounds on it. Used, there was nothing so seen for demonstration as to call you can aid the progress of laboring men, so well as just supposing their activity.

REPROVING THE MINISTERS Despite our steady trend towards modernism in religious matters, it is still a mooted question with us as to how far the activities of the religious teacher may properly extend beyond the line of the theological precepts. Here in America, anyway, the popular conception regarding the theologian is that his activities should be confined to the arena of things spiritual. And, so long as he confines himself to this enclosure, he may scratch, bite light and do anything short of murder (one did that in Texas), and still retain a certain amount of respect. But the moment he steps into the field of things secular, his entrance is not only resented, but it is a signal for stones. Take the cases, for example, of two high churchmen of the Protestant faith, whose activities in the field of politics and prohibition are matters of common knowledge. The activities of these men are not only resented and condemned by the professional politicians and anti-prohibitionists, but this feeling is even reflected in most of our influential newspapers and magazines. These mediums of influence are so bitter that they allow no opportunity to pass that gives them a chance to vent their antagonism against the two churchmen. Recently this was displayed most openly by the press when one of the ecclesiastics was revealed as having been a stock market trader. Even the staid and highly conservative Springfield Republican did not let the occasion pass which gave it an opportunity to hurt a stone at the minister-politician. And so it goes. Seemingly, the ministers have a definite ground. Beyond that they may not go, without, of course, inviting resentment and criticism. Last week, this column published some excerpts from a letter which was sent to the column by one of its readers. Among the items in this letter was one criticizing the recent actions of certain Harlem ministers at a labor meeting. Now, the writer of that communication is just a Pullman porter. He doesn't profess, nor does he try to be anything else. Yet, in spite of his humble vocation, he contributes his bit to the solidity of America's Negro citizenry, in that he votes, pays rent only to himself, and is highly respected in the community in which he lives. He is also at the old school, he respects the members of the clergy. But, like most Americans, he thinks the members of this body should keep aloof from things of a purely secular nature. He also intimated in his letter that if the members of whom he was complaining were surreptite in their efforts to help Negro progress, they were overlooking an opportunity just outside of their doors. He cited the commercial dormancy of the colored man in Harlem as an instance of this. Regarding all of that, the present writer remains absolutely on the side lines. So far as he is concerned, the activities of Harlem ministers, whether in politics, labor affairs, or any other field, are their own business. If they see fit to join in labor movements that's a matter for their congregations to condone or condemn; certainly not for the present writer. Still, looking at the matter from an impartial angle, the Pullman porter critic is not wholly without grounds on which to base his criticism. It must be admitted, there was nothing so secular about these ministers attending a labor demonstration as to call for criticism. If by their cooperation they can aid the progress of the Pullman porters, or any other group of laboring men, so well and good That is a Christian act. But just supposing their activities should have the effect of advancing every Negro worker in Harlem to the point where he could command wages fifty per cent above what he is receiving at the present time, what good would it do the community, unless it was to put the worker in a state of affluence by which he might buy finer clothes, attend more cabarets, and live in more expensive apartments? Therefore, since the progress of any race is founded and sustained on its commercial basis, it does appear as though these particular ministers, in their efforts to aid the labor group, were overlooking the horse in their eagerness to help construct the wagon. This observation, however, is not meant in any sense to be a criticism. Personally, this writer admires and respects the members of the clergy as a whole. This feeling was implanted in his breast when he was a mere lad in the Southland, notwithstanding that as his home in those days, the ministers always got the choicest parts of the chicken and the watermelon. A PERFECT SCORE They call it "a par" in golf, which means a perfect score. That is the score which Victor Block, of 4430 Park Avenue, this city, made for himself after half a century as porter in the Pullman service.

There have been, to be sure, retired porters who have been credited with "clean records", some with "good records, and some who have passed out with the designation of "excellent records", but it remained to this veteran to have the honor of passing out with a perfect record. In an article, which appeared in its June number, the New York Central Lines Magazine, in extolling the virtues of the ex veteran had among other things this to say on his passing out The Empire State Express has a new man in the observation car sending its passengers' comfort, for Victor Block's last trip has been made, and regretfully he has laid away the smart blue uniform of the Pulman porter with its eight silver silver stripes on the cuff. Since October 20, 1891, Victor has wrestled baggage on the Empire State Express, for the great and the near great he has held franky babies, hoisted fresh towels into the racks and lent a willing ear to smoking car confidence. He has known every President of the United States as one of the railroad's paying "guests" under his care from 91 to the time of the latter. The late "Teddy" Roosevelt often complimented Victor on sense of humor, because Victor always saw the point of the general residential jokes. Beside other comments on his affability and efficiency as a call-servitor, the article also contained reference to the retired man's respect record. It further paid a compliment to his unassuming disposition by this comment "He has always been a Pullman porter and has never regretted his choice of life work." Aide from his purely service record, Victor Block had other qualification which portrayed a rather rare character. Back in 1891 when the Empire State Express was the fastest passenger train between New York and Buffalo, there was only one Pullman car on the train. That car was an observation parlor. During the thirty-eight years the train has been in operation, Victor remained steadfast to the rear Pullman, notwithstanding that other Pullmans, considered more profitable from a porter's standpoint, have been added to the train's equipment. He could had he so desired, have had the privilege, by right of senority, changing to any one of these cars, but he never had the "choggish" idea. He was a consistent exponent of and a firm believer in the spirit of "live and let live." Furthermore, there isn't a porter who has run out of the grand central Terminal, and who has had any contact with the oldtimer, but will not speak in the most grocious terms of the rare disposition of the man. No matter how great was the presentation no felter has ever recalled an instance which caused the gentle Victor A veteran not only leaves the employment he followed so with a perfect service record, but he leaves in addition to that. 9. ord.

The best date here is July 31, and it is really a worthwhile day for these birthdates to try to get out of debt or to seek financial independence. The best birthdate of the week seems to be July 31, and those who have the natal suns transited by Jupiter at the same time will certainly be able to make considerable progress in the next birthyear. The Sun enters Leo, the Lion, on the 23rd of July about 3.54 a.m. Eastern Standard time. The people who were born with the sun Leo, July 23 to August 22, are rather unusual people in many ways. There are never happy when working for others, for they like to rule others. Those who are well developed mentually usually strive to do things that bring them honor and success in commanding vocations. They like to enter into business or public professions. They are very generous to those whom they really love, and will defend them from all enemies. On the lower plane the Leo people are very selfish and cruel, an have no regards for the rights of others. They are never popular and often end up by being hated and despised by all who know them. The best Leo people are some of the finest leathers that we can have. They like music, beautiful things, royal ralment, and the best of everything in life. The readers who would like to know how to avoid some of these worries, and to know how to get ahead, should write to Thearcher in care of The New York Age, 230 West 135th street, New York City.
