VOL. 42. No. 47. HARLEM CITIZENS ENDORSE MOVEMENT FOR LEADERSHIP BY 19th A. D. REPUBLICANS Men and Women From all Ranks of Life Give Expressions of Approval To Effort To Win Majority Control For The Race A canvass conducted by The Age among men and women of Harlem on the question of majority leadership in the Republican Party of the 19th A. D., disclosed a practical unanimity of opinion that it is time the race should be recognized politically in accordance with its strength at the ballot box. Men and women in all walks of life were interviewed and every individual seen gave hearty and unrestricted endorsement to the proposition. The Rev Dr. J. W. Brown, pastor of Mother A. M. E. Zion Church, not only gave strong approval to the movement, but declared that a systematic scheme of instruction in political matters of rank and file of the race should be constituted by the church. "This question has been brought on before," said Dr. Brown. "The proposition has great merit and the race must cooperate, stand together, in the effort to put it over. There should be a concentrated effort to secure a larger registration that the race might use its suitage opportunities more effectively. "Another handicap is the lack of economic stability which would make for mutual support and cooperation. But the proposal for race leadership will be undoubtedly supported by the women, and if the men rally as will the women there will be no doubt as to the Instruction School Needed. **What I believe should be done.** The church should be a source of instruction not only spiritually but in civics and politics as well. There should be established schools of instruction in which well-informed men and women would give informative talks on these matters to men and women of the race, that they might be identified as to the value of a proper use of the ballot and instructed in enjoyment of legal and civic opportunities. A series of questionnaires, to be prepared and distributed among people of the community, will be aimed towards this end. I will give every member and official of Mother / son to unite with the wife and will myself contribute every way possible, both in private contact and in public address." Speaking as a representative of the knights of Pythias, Eastern and Western Hemispheres, of which he is supreme trustee, William H. Willis of 286 West 137th street one of Harlem's leading men, spoke strongly in favor of the movement, declaring that he was one of the first to stand for race elective representation. He heartily endorses the organization and said that while the organization is non-political there are many men and women in ranks who are active politically and who will stand behind government. Pythians Endorse Fight. this statement, Mr. Willis was supported by W. R. Dean, grand chancellor of the K. of P. State in New York. Had F. Lewis, a veteran barrison who has been located at 125 West 135th street for many years, lives at 26 West 132nd street and who is a member of the Committee from the 19th A. D. approved the letter written Alderman Moore to Assembly-Grembal, saving that it exert its sentiments. It is ready to vote for a race said Mr. Lewis "It is a change, and I have留待他 to sign up or bind in any way to a continuance present policy. We are en a race leader as against any or any white man. D. Saunders, real estate 24 Lenox avenue, declared Alderman Moore had the right thought and that the Negro will cooperate with each other and dissatisfied white men to secure the desired The time, said he, is now the race should have its own for you get nothing from race on others. Angelina Blocker, modiste. Seventh avenue, is a memoir thirty fraternal and organizations and she has an contact with men and women races. She entirely enlisted the movement but said it was denominated plainly as "Race trainee and not particularly trained leadership." Race teaco would out personal realities of using daggers on each as every opportunity. "The thing," continued Mrs. Blocker, "that leaders should be real leaders in every sense of the word; they should not be lowering themselves in the estimation of the common people by being seen constantly ducking in and out of the notorious speakeasies which infest nearly every Harlem corner, and particularly on Sundays. "Another handicap is the lack of economic stability which would make for mutual support and cooperation. But the proposal for race leadership will be undoubtedly supported by the women, and if the men rally as will the women there will be no doubt as to the outcome." Statistical statements have been made by several men and women, as follows: Mrs. Cecelia C. Saulders, Y. W. C. A. Secretary. "Those of us who take the responsibility for managing and administering the work of the West 137th Street Branch of the Young Women's Christian Association are much gratified at the keen interest which our women are now taking in civic improvement and representative government. At this time there seems to be a very noticeable awakening of the sense of responsibility for conditions in Harlem on the part of people living in Harlem. Along with this sense of responsibility there has grown up a deep-rooted and far-reaching feeling that a channel for expression of desires and opinions must be created. Therefore, large numbers of people are coming to feel that representation and leadership for groups, predominantly Negro, is absolutely necessary. Representative government by majority rule is a principle as old as American Government and one to which the Negro has given willing assent. Therefore, since 'turn about as fairplay,' the Negro is demanding for himself what he has always willingly conceded, namely, the right of the majority to rule. In Harlem in several districts, notably the 19th and 21st, the Negro represents the majority. The majority of all classes of Negroes agree that the time has come when in matters civic and political he should speak for himself. Being the wearer of the shoe, he knows where it pinches. No political party can maintain its position of dominance in this section without recognizing the new attitude of the Negro on things political. Rev. A. Clavton Powell Abyssin ian Baptist Church. "The question of Negro political leadership in Harlem, like Banquo's ghost, will not down until the majority of Negroes go to the ballot box and put it down. "Nannie Burroughs says 'You can get anything you want, if you want it bad enough.' The only reason we haven't got Negro leadership in Harlem is because we do not want it bad enough. "Up to the present, the majority of colored people have wanted white leadership. Indisputable proof of this is that the majority of their votes have been cast for a white man. "In the 19th Assembly District, the overwhelming majority of voters are colored, and if they want a colored leader this year, they can go to the polls and get one. If they fail to do this they might stop discussing the question. "I do not blame the white man for wanting to lead colored voters. If I were a white man I would like a lead 250,000 or 250,000 colored voters. It would give me power and prestige with the successful political parties. "Tammans Hall and Republican Seventh ed. on Seventh Page. NEW YORK, N. Y., SATURDAY, AUGUST 3, 1929 Making A Fight For Race Leadership In the 19th A.D. Republican Group The determination of the Republicans of the 19th A.D. to have as leader a man who will truly represent the majority group of the party is growing daily. Concrete evidence of this is seen in a letter sent July 25 by Alderman Fred R. Moore, editor, of The New York Age, to the present Republican leader, Assemblyman Abraham Grenthal, in which the Alderman defines his position and affirms his purpose to work, with members of his race group, for both a race leader and an Assemblyman. The letter written by Alderman Moore to Assemblyman Grenthal reads as follows: "I have given serious consideration to the conference held between us relative to you securing my support for Republican leader and Assemblyman of the 19th District. After talks with ministers and other race representatives, both men and women in Harlem, I have decided not to have further conferences, for there is an overwhelming sentiment among members of my group that one of their number should be the leader and another a member of the Assembly of the 19th District. As I am of the same opinion I do not see any good in further conferences as my decision cannot be changed and is final. "I take the position, as do many who have expressed themselves to me, that if it has been fair all these years for colored people to have supported white candidates at the polls when the white majority of the 19th Assembly is equally fair that all white voters and colored candidates when the district is largely colored. My observation is that all racial groups throughout the city advance a similar argument—the Italian, the Jew, etc. It is the only way by which racial groups get elective representation. "I am frank to say that the attitude of our white friends is in accord with that line of reasoning whenever they present themselves for political preferment, but seemingly they do not desire to accord us the same rights and privileges, when one of our number has political ambitions. "I cannot lose sight of the fact that my candidacy for Alderman in 1927 did not receive the loyal support of sections controlled by the whites and I am not unmindful of instructions alleged to have been given in these districts to cut me. "I did start the right last fall to carry out the principle in which I sincerely believe—That our group, being in the majority, should have representation in leadership. With Myles Page as representative, we did not by a small note. Subsequently I entered into a conference with you and Chairman Samuel Koenig and was asked not to continue the fight for the best interests of the party. This I did. However, I told you and Chairman Koenig at the time that the principle still obtained and in the future efforts would be resumed to take what properly belonged to us. "If the enrolled Republicans of the 19th A. D. on Primary Day select you as their choice for the Assembly, I pledge you my support. I have never broken a pledge for party regularity. "I also wish to state at this time that as a candidate for Alderman on the Republican ticket, if there are any dishonorable practices in seeking to prevent my designation I shall reserve the right to make an appeal to the voters of the district for the election. I have been consistent in the fight for elective representation for my group and I am in sympathetic accord with the present movement. I don't feel that I should sacrifice the best interests of the majority for selfish purposes. Under the circumstances, I cannot see the need of further conferences.

Davis said that the organization which had offices in West 90th street, paid the arresting agent 10 per cent of the fine. His story did not prevent him from being sentenced to serve five months in the workhouse on a charge of making an arrest without authority. He had arrested Alexander S. Young of 210 West 64th street on July 10 and was taking him to the amateur detective's headquarters when Young called out to a policeman and had Davis arrested. Prominent Pittsburgh Couple Held In Court For Embezzling Funds Prominent Pittsburgh Couple Held In Court For Embezzling Funds Pittsburgh, Pa.-Alleged to have taken $7,500 from funds or the J R Womble Company, Inc. of which they were vice-president and secretary respectively, Edward M Rice and his wife, Mrs. Rosena L. Rice, were held for court on embezzlement charged Wednesday, July 24, by Alderman Thomas D. Jones The charges were preferred by J R Womble president of the company, a real estate firm with offices at 1924 Centre avenue. Womble testified that the alleged peculiations of the couple covered the past three years. He said that he was suspicious of the couple six months ago and had the company's books audited. The auditors also testified the accounts had been falsified. According to the testimony of the auditor's, small amounts of money received in payment of rentals and other charges were appropriated to their own use by the defendants at various times.

Warren where he had decided to make any addition statement. McCargo was brought here from the county jail by state troopers but proceedings were held over for one week due to the mobility of District Attorney Allen S. Reynolds to be present. Asked whether he had secured all attorney, McCargo replied that he didn't know Questioned further as to whether he had made any effort to secure counsel, the prisoner said it he had, but that the sheriff had refused to allow him to telephone to one. He's a pretty thin story, Judge Warren declared "I don't think the sheriff would refuse to let you secure an attorney." He turned to Chester Coates. Dutchess Junction Negro, who is being held on a charge, and asked whether he had been permitted to attempt to secure counsel Coates noided an affirmative.

Md — The Airo-American of the city, in arguments and in pictures is propagandising for the right or colored patrons to ride on the buses operated by local street car company. An editorial in the last issue argues that: "Unmindful of its character as a public utility, using the streets of Baltimore for its auto access, and in defiance of the public laws and the rights of 120,000 colored citizens, the United Railways and Electric Company has instructed its motormen and conductors to bar colored passengers when possible. Tells People To Ride The United knows it has no such authority, and that its presumption in such high-laded procedure is contrary to law and public policy. The adresses colored Baltimore to ride the busses or find out why they may not Louis Arrael (right), columnist of Baltimore Post, a Sergeus-Howard paper, in his "Day By Day" column, using the caption—"Colored," comments in a factuous vein. Said Mr. Arrael "The AFRO-AMERICAN seems very much aroused about the United Railways, and its Charles Street buses. These busses, says the colored paper, are not at all hospitable to colored people. As a matter of fact I suspect that the Afro's surprise is more apparent than real its editors know very much better than I do that the same system applies to many of Baltimore's stores." The Bus Clientele Mr. Arrael gives as his opinion, that the street car company's bus policy is to cater to a "more select clientele than the plebian street cars and that there is more reason for protecting this clientele from anything it might consider objectionable. "But, says the writer, 'the question arises—What is objectionable? Well' the officials may say, 'we haven't anything against the people. Its a business proposition with us. We simply try to please our customers. Mr. Arrael's concluding suggestion is, that the United post an inspector on each bus to decide as to who is objectionable.' This man could inspect every person who seeks to board a bus. He would inspect the clothes to see that they do not offend the sensitive eyes of the bus riders. It might even be proper to give a thought to the effect the prospective rider might have on the olfactory organs. "Then white or colored, every prospective customer would have to come up to scrutiny. Then the sensitive souls of the bus-riders would be protected. And the Afro-American wouldn't be angry at the company." Jules Laster, Veteran Of Old 15th Regiment, Killed In Accident Jules Laster, one of the original members of the famous 15th Regiment which afterwards became the 18th Infantry, N. Y. N. G., was instantly killed in an automobile accident while on a vacation in Springfield. Mass. July 19. He was a member of the Jersey Cats but and lived most of his life in New York. The body was brought here where it was accorded a full military funeral and burial was made in the streets that has occurred on that road. Convicted Of Assault and Attempt To Kill Ashley L. Totten, Officer Of Brotherhood, Man Gets 3 Months Eddie Thomas, On Trial, Tells Story of Being Hired To Commit Crime By Cabaret Owner and Police Captain—Totten Badly Injured Kansas City, Mo.—Charged with assault and attempt to kill upon the person of Ashley L. Totten, assistant general, organizer of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, Eddie Thomas was convicted on July 16 in Judge Ralph Latshaw's court, after he had won the sympathy of spectators by telling the story of having been railroaded into committing the assault on Totten. Arraigned in court, Thomas requested to be allowed to handle his own case and in his own way, which request was granted. He then protected to unfold a story which purported to tell how he had been the paid tool of a cabaret owner, a Negro, and of a police captain, a white man, formerly in employ of the Pullman Company. The story of the compact had been included in a sworn affidavit made by Thomas on July 5, and turned over to Assistant Prosecutor Gorman visor of the Brotherhood was have rassed and persecuted by the Police. Authorities, and threatened by a Judge to send him to Blue-Jay Farms, a penal institution there until he was forced to leave. The Brotherhood, however, is determined to carry forward the work in Kansas City, Missouri, and Jacksonville, Florida, and every point in the country where Pullman porters are, regardless of intimidations and threats against the organizers. Would Not Arrest Captain. He told in court how in the presence of Mr. Totten, the complainant John M Langsdae, a special prosecutor, a deputy sheriff, and Anthony Tolston, a witness for the state, on July 15, he had requested the prosecutor to take him before the court so the charge against Police Captain Seigfried and Ellis Burton, owner of the Yellow Front Cabaret, could be made, but that this request had been refused. In the course of the trial Judge Latshaw ruled out every reference which included the name of Police Captain Seigfried, notwithstanding that both Thomas and the state's witness Tolston attempted to tell of his connection with the conspiracy to attack Totten Both Tolston and Thomas were employed by Burton in the cabaret. Witnesses for the state identified Thomas as the man who had made the assault upon Totten which resulted in internal injuries and a fractured skull. One of the witnesses was the attending physician, Dr W. H. Bruce who said that Totten was still under medical treatment and would have to undergo an operation as result of the injuries inflicted upon him by Thomas. Thomas was found guilty by the jury, which set the penalty at three months in jail, as under the laws of Missouri a jury returning a verdict of guilty, must fix the sentence. Randolph Makes Statement The court room was crowded, many members of the Brotherhood being present From the headquarters office in New York City of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters. A. Philip Randolph, president and general organizer, has issued a statement in which he declares the purpose of his organization to ferret out the influences that were behind the attack on Totten. Said he: "The Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters will mobilize every available resource behind the case of A. L. Totten, who was assaulted by thugs of the underworld, in Kansas City, Mo., to discover the powerful forces that are back of the attack, and to bring the culprits to proper judgment. "This is the second instance of an attempt of certain forces to run organizers of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters from their scenes of activity in seeking to organize the porters and maids. The first was in Jacksonville, Florida, where Bennie Smith, Zone Super W. Wyatt is a porter on the Everglades Limited, running between New York and Florida, and when that train was wrecked near Rocky Mount, N.C., his coolness and presence of mind was the means of the saving from injury and possibly death of a number of the passengers. The entire train was derailed and a number of people were instantly killed. As soon as Wyatt could extricate himself from the wreckage, he began rescuing imprisoned passengers by breaking windows and killing them not from their precious positions. Wyatt has received letters of commendation from officials of the Atlantic Coast Line and from numbers of the passengers for his heroic work in one of the worst accidental cemetery. visor of the Brotherhood was has rassed and persecuted by the Poorice. Authorities, and threatened by a Judge to send him to Blue-Jay Farms, a penal institution there until he was forced to leave. The Brotherhood, however, is determined to carry forward the work in Kansas City, Missouri, and Jacksonville, Florida, and every point in the country where Pulman porters are, regardless of imtimidations and threats against the organizers." Burton To Be Tried. Ellis Burton, who is also under indictment for the same crime, will be arraigned for trial in September ber, and it is feared by the Brotherhood officials that even though convicted his sentence will be light, and there is a strong probability that he will be acquitted unless judicial laxity and apparent collusion can be avoided. The minimum sentence under the law for the crime of which Thomas was convicted, it is pointed out, is set at two years instead of the three months placed by the Special to The New York Age. Washington, N.C.—One of the most sensational cases in the history of Washington, N.C., which attracted nationwide attention, was that of the death of Francis Hartzfield who was murdered on the outskirts of the city more than two months ago, on what was alleged to have a murder farm. Hartzfield at that time was said to have heavily insured by the landlord at the house he lived. The wife was tried here last in Superior, before Mrs. MaeRae when Mrs. Matilda Redmond and her brother, Nathan Crandal, were defended by Philip A. Escoffery, Negro attorney of Durham, N.C. At the trial, nothing was said about the many insurance policies which Mrs. Redmond and her brother were supposed to have carried on quite a number of persons within out the knowledge of the insured. Through the efforts of Attorney Escoffery the trial was confined to the murder of Francis Hartzfield, Attorney Escoffery made quite a name and record for himself by the manner in which he handled the case. Although it was generally conceded that the defendant would be convicted of murder in the first degree, the crowded courtroom experienced a sensation when Crandall submitted to a charge of manslaughter and Mrs. Redmond to aiding and abetting. A four-year sentence was pronounced. Detectives Boyden And Robinson Catch Youthful Auto Thieves Through the quick action of Detectives William Boyden and William Robinson, attached to the 32nd Precinct, the automobile of Martin Lash, which was stolen from in front of the premises of 228 West 141st street, was recovered and returned to its owner in three hours. Acting on a tip from residents of the neighborhood, the detectives went to Mount Vernon and there found George Lambdon of 387 Lentox avenue, 18 years of age, at the wheel of the stolen car With him were Melvin Cooper, of 421 West 140th street; Gus Eadle, 21, of 2845 Eighth avenue and Edward Jackson, 20, of 2638 Avenue. They all placed under the vehicle and charged with the theft of the auto. The boys explained that Lambdon induced them to go for a ride by saying the auto be believed to his uncle. When the case came up for a hearing before Magistrate Silverman in the Heights Court on Monday all were held in $1,000 bail for the action on the Grand Jury. REMOVAL Mr. and Mrs. H. N.

Mr LaGuardia praised Representative De Press, the Negro district from a Chicago district, as an "gentle honest and worthy leader." A resolution endorsing Mr. LaGranda's candidacy for Mayor was adopted. The genius of the afternoon was Daimo Steele, who, as master of ceremonies, punctuated his recollection with humor and knowledge of human experience. This was especially suitable when at the close he introduced Pete M. M. Bolden, who came to represent Assemblyman William Grenthal. The gentleman facetiously remarked that he was not a good plan for him to be adding that his presence there had been wished upon him. Mr. Steele, shot back with Mark Antonian oratory and Mark Twainian humor in such a way as he understood that he understood the situation. Bolden For Race Leader. The Rev. Mr. Bolden, in championing, the cause of *Negro leadership*, suggested that Major LaGuardia had erred in stating that the Negro represented the youngest child in racial civilization. Tracing Negro leadership from the days of Hammel, he stated, embodying the ideals of Negro would not beg more than for leadership as a gift from other races, but that he would go out and take it as his inalienable right. The musical program was of an exceptionally high order: Miss Dais-Harding rendered several selections that placed her immediately at the highest rating of our concert singers. The *Monumental Male Quartet of Jersey City* rendered Yes, in coming through "Lord I am Pilgrim," Ezekiel the heel! all the new paths of the plantation coupled with trained musical technique. The Rev. W. F. Anderson offered the invocation; the College Four sang and Roland Hannes played a violin solo, accompanied by his brother; Mrs. Beatrice McMillan soprano, and Merrill Damen, tenor, gave solos; tributes to Congressman La Guardia were made on behalf of the clergy by Rev. M C. Ward, and Adrianerman John C. Hawkins, for the law by Counselor A. M. Madison, for the women by Mrs. Eunice Hunton Carter; and for the press by Mrs. Bessye Bearden Its First Session Greenboro, N.

ADVERTISE An Eastern Sucker In California Editor of The New York Age: Recently, while on a real estate excursion trip in this Haven of Resf, the principal speaker raved about undesirable features of it in a duce tour of the parties to buy property; but he failed to mention about undesirable labor conditions, high taxes, earthquakes, etc., here. In relation to labor, able body employees are existing only in San Diego on wages as low as $15 in the city. Boosters get the Eastern suckers here, and after having found out that it isn't possible to eat climate or secure a position as a living wage, the Associated Charities render a valuable service by feeding animals and by furnishing free transportation East for many families. To explain more fully about high taxes, I will make mention of a small house and lot located in Newport Beach which is owned by an Eastern resident who asked me to help with the house. I found the house vacant while there, and the loss on same for the past year was about as follows: lost interest on the money invested, $130, taxes, assessments and penalties, $70, depreciation, about $100, more on the bill, $18 or more a year, when water is used; total, $309. At present the water is off and it would cost $2.50 to have same turned on, which is seemingly a hold-up game. Naturally the house is for sale at much less than cost Explaining also about the heavy overhead expenses on a small estate of which I was mentioned in the will as executor, allow me to cash for this property on which the taxes are about $30 a year and present assessments are over $300. The place is still for sale as a sacrifice. The occasion, a bonded indebedness of $859,129 for paying of a street in and extending suburban to San Diego, Calif., was placed upon adjacent property showing a total assessed value of which is around 28 percent of the bonded indebedness on same In consequence you should make a thorough investigation of present and possible future expenses for the maintenance of property here before making a purchase. Write accuracy, caution and attention about other places located in Newport Beach and San Diego, of which a search of records was made. On the other hand, the tax rate on real estate in Los Angeles and other localities investigated is reasonable and seemingly just. However, I have met many here who claim that they bought Caltrans leasing nothing for the purchase of a ticket homes or for a cheap job, and when it comes to a showdown, anything reasonable they are forced to take. Boosters feed them on climate and hot air until obliged to work for a steak; then to some cheap position the unfortunate is generally led although the property is dirt with the chickens or with the army of unemployment. If I fail to receive three squares a day, in place of such a small write-up, a full front page will be read; some bird in a California cage, due principally to climate with land stalked While eating fog and sunshine regular, I thank you in advance for your consideration of the above.

CRITICISING A CONGRESSMAN. Representative Oscar DePriest of the First Illinois district has become the target for considerable criticism, both in the white dailies and the Negro weeklies, because of his recent speeches. The new Congressman has made many speeches since he came to Washington, most of them being delivered before racial organizations in various of the big cities, including New York, Philadelphia, Cleveland, St. Louis, and many other places where the people were naturally anxious to see and hear the first colored Congressman elected from a Northern state. In satisfying this legitimate curiosity, Mr. DePriest has had to do much traveling and considerable talking. It has often been assumed that the average Congressman has the gift of talking much and saying but little. This has not been the case with the gentleman from Illinois, although it has occasioned not a little astonishment among those who have followed his speeches from one section to another, how a man who talked so much could keep from making bad breaks. But, according to his critics, those breaks have been made. The occasion complained of specifically, was at a meeting in a Baptist church in Chicago, when it was charged in the headlines of the New York Times that Mr. DePriest "Calls on Negroes to Form Own Party." A Chicago, daily put it this way: "DePriest Seeks Negro Party to Advance Race." Even the New York World, with its habitual fairness on the race question, could not help wondering editorially, whether Mr. DePriest "was well advised the other day, when he called on members of his race to form a political party of their own and attempt to capture one hundred Congressional seats in districts where they are in the majority." The editor of the World further thought that Mr. DePriest "is sacrificing all his advantages when he makes such an inflammatory appeal at this time. Its inevitable result will be to alarm the enemies of the Negro, set them talking about Reconstruction days and such things, give them the ammunition that they have recently lacked." A close reading of the various accounts of what Mr. DePriest said in this speech, fails to give any quotation, to show that he actually counseled the formation of a Negro party, although that is the conclusion arrived at by the reporters who wrote up the meeting. What Mr. DePriest seemingly was driving at was to stir his listeners from a state of political inactivity by organizing themselves, so that they make their votes count by electing Congressmen and other officials. As he was quoted in the Chicago paper, he said: "I've come here for the purpose of finding fault with you. You are backward. You are unaccomplished politically, and you haven't organized yourselves. In this Twenty-first senatorial district you ought to begin your getting together by appointing a committee of three to start the ball rolling. Then find one person in each block of the district who can get ten more in that block to help them. Organize this group and you will find each member can find one or more in the same block who will help." "Your politicians here may not like that," the congressman continued, "but what do you care?" We are inclined to think that the meaning of Mr. DePriest's exhortation for organization has been misinterpreted. He is too much of a machine politician to indorse any such impracticable scheme as a Negro parity, run along lines that might have been borrowed from Marcus Garvey. Unless a sudden change has come over the astute Chicago district leader, who has been one of the solid props of the Thompson machine, he does not contemplate anything more serious than to organize the fellow members of his race, so that they may make their votes count for the support of Republican candidates. As a Chicago critic of the new Congressman said, "it would be a very disastrous thing for our people to attempt to jimcrow themselves into a Negro party." That may be true, but the part of wisdom would be for our voters to organize along such lines as would enable them to ally themselves with the party or candidate that would best serve their interests. ILL ADVISED INVESTMENTS ILL-ADVISED INVESTMENTS. Under the alliterative headline, "Fraternals Finance and Folly," the July number of Opportunity, a journal of Negro Life published by the National Urban League, dealt rather severely with the tendencies of some of our fraternal orders to invest the funds of their members in projects of questionable value. The part that the secret orders play in the life of the race is of more than ordinary importance because they furnish the outlet for much of the activity that the whites dissipate in other enterprises, although the secret orders go big with them as was exemplified in the remarkable revival of the Ku Klux Klan. UNDER the alliterative headline, "Prisons! Finance and Folly," the July num- ber of Opportunity, a journal of Negro life published by the National Urban league, dealt rather severely with the tendencies of some of our fraternal orders invest the funds of their members in projects of questionable value. The part that the secret orders play in the race is of more than ordinary importance because they furnish the outlet for much of the activity that the whites displace in other enterprises, although the secret orders go big with them as was exemplified in the remarkable revival of the Ku Klux Klan. After reviewing the part played by the Negro lodges in collecting and disbursing millions of dollars, some which are used in the payment of sick and death benefits, which are supposed to be the chief reason for the existence of these organizations, the editor of Opportunity attacked the investment of the surplus funds, which frequently amount to large sums. He said: If nearly every city where there is a large Negro population, Negro lodges have engaged in the purchase and direct present premises and office buildings. These ten stories, rising eight, ten and twenty stories, and costing from $75,000 to $50,000 are usually erected in the heart of the scaled Negro district. As a rule they are surrounded by unlightly shackers, or by dilapidated tenements, or by clusters of ill-key restaurants and poolrooms and barbershop businesses in derelivery from the building once a beautiful edifice is reduced to dirty, unkempt, miserable pile of brick and stone. And thus the lodge, staggering up a constantly increasing burden of mortgage and taxes, stumbles on; or they dispose of the property; or they lose it, and the earnings of hundreds of Negroes over a period of years are irretrievably lost. It was then pointed out that there were not a few cases where the proposed buildings never reached completion, and the gaunt skeletons of unfinished tenures "stand as monuments to the financial inepititude of those whose ambition were greater than their wisdom." The lesson to be derived from these failures is that the laws of investment cannot be ignored in order to present an account of racial achievement. Investment of this kind require expert advice in the choice of location and the kind of building to be erected, as well as expert handling in the details of financing and operating. More money has been lost through ignorant and blundering management of such schemes, through actual dishonesty of the promoters of these enterprises. It is suggested that the investment of the same amount of money in public utilities or in better housing for Negroes with the return on the investment limited to six per cent, would have proved too soon to the race. This phase of business enterprise was commended to the attribution of the National Negro Business League, as a matter well worth consideration. The present waste of energy and the reckless dissipation of the earnings of the black worker through ill-advised and unsound investment was pronounced one of the tragedies of Negro life. The editor of Opportunity has done well to call attention to this matter. Although a tendency is visible in the most recent enterprises begun by fraternal orders in this city, at least, to take the matter of better housing into consideration. After reviewing the part played by the Negro lodges in collecting and disburising millions of dollars, some which is used in the payment of sick and death benefits, which are supposed to be the chief reason for the existence of these organizations, the editor of Opportunity attacked the investment of the surplus funds, which frequently amount to large sums. He said: In nearly every city where there is a large Negro population, Negro lodges have engaged in a mad race to erect pretentious temples and office buildings. These temples, rising eight, ten and sometimes twelve stories and costing from $25,000 to $50,000, are usually erected in the heart of the so-called Negro district. As a rule they are surrounded by unisightly shacks, or by dilapidated tenements, or by clusters of ill-knew restaurants and poolrooms and bureaux. The rental of offices and dance halls proves inertial of offices and dance halls proves invariably insufficient to offset the current expenses of operation. The lodge treasury is drained to meet the interest and taxes. Special assessments are levied on the members, all to no avail. The inevitable depreciation sets in and soon the building, which was once a beautiful edifice, is reduced to a dirty, unkempt, miserable pile. Birds and insects gather under a constantly increasing burden of mortgages and taxes, stumbles on; or they dispose of the property; or they lose it, and the earnings of hundreds of Negroes over a period of years are irretrievably lost. It was then pointed out that there were not a few cases where the proposed buildings never reached completion, and the gaunt skeletons of unfinished temples "stand as monuments to the financial ineptitude of those whose ambitions were greater than their wisdom." The lesson to be derived from these failures is that the laws of investment cannot be ignored in order to present an imposing front of racial achievement. Investments of this kind require expert advice in the choice of location and the kind of building to be erected, as well as expert handling in the details of financing and operating. More money has been lost through ignorant and blundering mismanagement of such schemes, than through actual dishonesty of the promoters of these enterprises. It is suggested that the investment of the same amount of money in public utilities or in better housing for Negroes, with the return on the investment limited to six per cent, would have proved a boon to the race. This phase of business enterprise was commended to the attention of the National Negro Business League, as a matter well worth consideration. The present waste of energy and the reckless dissipation of the earnings of the black worker through ill-advised and unsound investment was, pronounced one of the tragedies, of Negro life. The editor of Opportunity has done well to call attention to this matter, although a tendency is visible in the more recent enterprises begun by fraternal orders in this city, at least, to take the matter of better housing into consideration. ELECTIVE REPRESENTATION Elective representation is popular supposed to be the basis upon which the scheme of this government was founded. But in the early days of the colonies the scheme of government was only par time, because of the many restrictions that limited the exercise of the franchise. Many of the founders of the Republic had little confidence in the ability of the people to rule themselves and believe in the creation of a ruling class, composed of the property holding and educated minority. This was evident in t Elective representation is popularly supposed to be the basis upon which the scheme of this government was founded. But in the early days of the colonies that scheme, of government was only partly true, because of the many restrictions that limited the exercise of the franchise. Many of the founders of the Republic had little confidence in the ability of the people to rule themselves and believed in the creation of a ruling class, composed of the property holdings and educated minority. This was evident in the restriction of the suffrage to certain classes of the population, who could read and white or who possessed landed property. The clause in the Declaration of Independence which recognized that all men are created equal, endowed with certain inalienable rights, and that governments derive their just powers from the consent of the governed, did not become actually fulfilled in the first flush of the new republic. We might say that it has not yet reached its actual fulfillment in our present scheme of government, but with the extension of manhood suffrage and the conferment of the franchise upon the women, it shows signs of eventually approaching the ideals adopted by the Continental Congress on July 4th, 1776. We have aluded briefly to standards set up by the early fathers of the Republic to show that the demands for racial leadership now insistent in certain districts in Harlem are strictly, in keeping with the ideas of American institutions. All racial groups that become sufficiently strong in numbers to entitle them to representation in our government, in due course of time develop a leadership of their own. This leadership naturally takes its place in furnishing representatives of the political territory occupied by that group, and furnishes the regular party candidates for elective office. This political practice has been exemplified in the recognition of Italians as the representatives of the district where the voters of that nationality are in the majority, and the same theory is carried out in the districts where Jewish vpters predominate. But when this principle is invoked for practical application, to the districts where voters of darker races are in the majority, some curious pleas are presented to avert the election of a black leader or representative. As a white Assemblyman in one of the districts where this principle should be applied put it, "The time is not yet ripe for the election of a Negro." Another white Assemblyman who is holding, on to the leadership of his district as a help to his law practice, declared that "it will be five hundred years before the Negro will be qualified for leadership." This repudiation of the outstanding principle of American government by Republican candidates for office is a dangerous thing. Some twenty-five or thirty years ago a Republican district attorney of New York county refused to appoint a colored lawyer as one of his assistants, on the excuse that "the time is not ripe for such a step." He was a candidate for reelection, but he and the county leader who sanctioned his refusal were defeated at the polls. One of the first acts of his. Democratic opponent after entering upon his duties, was to appoint the colored lawyer on his staff, where he remained to do useful service for a number of years. All these pleas, as to the ripeness of time, or lack of qualifications for leadership on the part of the Negro, are mere subterfuges to prevent him from getting the recognition that the race has earned by party service and strength of numbers. The capacity of the race for political leadership has been demonstrated in many capacities during the past fifty years, by such outstanding characters as Norris Wright Cuney in Texas, who once dictated the policy of the administration in that great state. There were others in Congress and in the various state legislatures, who helped notably in placing useful legislation on the statute books in the troublous days of Reconstruction. Not all Negroes of that period were scalawags or ignorant tools, as they have been too often represented. There are certain districts in Harlem where the Negroes will have to take the political leadership if they want it and are willing to fight for it. By doing so they will conform to the underlying principle of American politics and again demonstrate the capacity of the race for real leadership. Elective representation is the principle of American politics that has grown with the extension of the suffrage. A man or woman who is good enough to vote is good enough to be voted for. PINK TEA PUGILISM The degeneracy of what used to be called "the noble art of self defense," into the realm of pink tea parties and commercialism, was recently illustrated by a formal challenge issued by the manager of George Godfrey, a Negro heavyweight born in this country and who served in the world war. The challenge was addressed to Max Schmeling of Germany, and stated that if the German could stay fifteen rounds with Godfrey, the latter would donate his share of the gate to charity. Godfrey is pronounced the greatest heavyweight in the world today by his manager who may not be counted an impartial judge, but who is willing to have his fighter prove his contention. The old familiar color line seems to be in the way of a demonstration of the quality of Godfrey as a fighter, and owing to the deference of managers and promoters to this bogeyman, the German may be allowed to take the heavyweight title to his Fatherland without a real contest with a real fighter. This would be in keeping with the fear of Negro fighters which kept Dempsey from meeting Harry Wills, when the latter was in his prime and was regarded as a formidable opponent for the championship. Since then Dempsey lost to Tunney by a fluke, and the latter took to literary pursuits and finally landed in the social register, after retiring from the prize ring... Dempsey still maintains some sorl of relation to the world of pugilism, but steadily avoids any real fighting since his last encounter with Tunney. He finds it more profitable to manage other fighters, or to do a stunt in vaudeville or for the films. The heavyweight fighters of today are not such an outstanding lot and their appearance in the ring is often more suggestive of a wrestling match than a boxing contest. Godfrey's manager insists that he compares favorably with the best heavyweights in ring history, singling out Jim Jeffries and Jack Johnson, as good examples.

Harlem Needs a Policy Editor of The New York Age: "The time has arrived for colored Harlem to put an end to its policy of drift, and consider some definite and comprehensive plan for its community life." For a community living some plan for the future is a matter that must scandalize any orderly mind. It appears to me that a central organization is need to survey the situation, to coordinate the activities of existing organizations, and to develop positive and constructive plans for the improvement of the largest Negro city in the world. The rhapsodies of some publicists should not blind us to the fact that Harlem does not possess the social machinery necessary to cope with the problems of contemporary life. One need only credit the field of publicity and credit—the upper and lower millstones of the modern world. In the past decade we were only saved by the emergency rent laws locally, and nationally by the immigration act. We were neither educated nor organized to take advantage of the American economic revolution, but a first pause that will bear very heavy in Harlem. Are we prepared? In a day when white America is proceeding from merger to merger to organize its economic life on a more efficient basis; can we remain at the center of its civilization unorganized? No intelligent person should with peer conditions, and I would respectfully suggest that a canvas of public opinion be made. ARTHUR E. KING 18th St, Nicholas Ave, New York Interracial Cooperation (Greenboro, N. C., Daily News) Announcement, comes from the Atlanta headquarters of the charter- ing of the Commission on Interac- tial Co-operation, with W. C. Jackson, as first president of the corporation. The wisdom of Mr. Jackson, and his broad knowledge, so valuable to Caroline and deepenove, have long been recog- ized by the general commission also as constituting a tower of strength. Perhaps it should be said, in the home town of the man who assumes the duties of leadership of this enterprise, even when physical change occurs as he was already chairman of the unchartered organization—that many people rest upon conclusions concerning the commission to which they have jumped. It is regarded as a sentimentalist endeavor, of persons whose experience of the commission for white people of the Carolinas, Georgia, the other states of this group to hold. As a matter of fact the purpose of the organizers, in 1919, was simple, definite, and wholly practical, the methods by which the commission achieved remained to be worked out. The commission was to be a meeting place of white citizens with Negro leaders for the purpose of preventing trouble. It is hardly possible that the peculiar conditions existing in this region in the immediate post-war confusion. No one could predict with confidence, or at any rate with assurance, what the outcome would be The Week ASTROLOGICAL BY THE The Week of August 3 ASTROLOGICALLY CONSIDERED BY THEARCHER Neptune is now in Virgo, and this transit will bring on a period that will see a great change in many born on June 22. This transit brings a spiritual awakening, the help of those who are in position to be of much assistance, and providential assistance to those who sit will be for about thirteen years, and this is one time that thirteen is not unlucky. The people of this date who can arouse the best in themselves will certainly get ahead. It will change the character, and modify the former abrupt and harsh manner that these people had in their lives over the years to see themselves as they are, and the power to make any changes in character that are necessary. Mars is in Virgo, and brings opportunities to the birthdates of July to the 16; November 11 to the 16; September 19 to the 14. All the dates are inclusive. Mars is approaching an overlap with Saturn, and this means that the opportunities are more likely to come through matters of long duration. Mars is in the same ships. Many of these birthdates will make some very important changes Since their time the heavyweight contenders have done less fighting and more attitudinizing for the movies and dallying with literature and pink tea parties. This together with the exclusion of the darker fighters, has taken the punch out of such meetings as have been pulled off in the centers of fistic culture and pugilism has become a comparatively mild and harmless pursuit of the almighty dollar. A meeting between the German champion and Godfrey might restore some of its pristine vigor. to the Editor will be printed in name and address of the writer, need are those of the writer, and selecting the policy of The New reserves the right to "cut down"ue length. It did not require an alarmist imagination to picture scenes of violence before a condition of stabilization should be reached again. There was a great exodus of Negroes from the South, and a legion of the Marsh South, which tended to clarify the situation, but to move any considerable part of the black population to other parts of the country was out of the question. Besides, the shifting of population was economically and otherwise undesirable, on several counts, more than touched the fringe of this situation. There have been localized volcanic race-contact outbreaks from time to time, and few of either race who have ever 'gone through such experience, would care to repeat it. We have had them in North Carolina. Atlanta in 1919 still had vivid memories of the latest and worst. We had not until the conditions were changed, the difficulties of racial contacts might perhaps have become immensely greater. There were not lacking portents of trouble. No considerable troubles have come. It may be that those white and Negro leaders who felt that some measures of extraordinary prophylaxis ought to be taken were unimaginable in present times, possible. On the other hand, it may be that their effort succeeded, and that trouble did not come because they met it. There has been a great spirit of co-operation working, but even so the difficulties have not been inconceivable. The main thing has been to keep the Negro leader in there everywhere white men and women of standing and influence wiling to be at pains and to work to the end that the Negro might be given a deal not too obviously unfair, that conditions might be made to bear, even if they were to be other than the worst, and that this Negro leadership should spread this message amongst its people.

All these birthdates should try to accomplish something in this week. All things should be considered. The Sun is in good aspect to Jupiter, and to Uranus, and later in the month to Saturn. This gives the people born from July 23 to August 21 a very good month to accomplish some important things. The best birthdates seem to be the United and to August for this week. Uranus is a bright planet of tunities and journeys, as well as the favor of persons in high position and authority. Jupiter brings financial opportunities, and success at law. Saturn brings substantial gain in business and ponderous affairs, and the favor elderly people. Most of the prosperity will only to those who have prepared for them. All events will depend upon the relative mental and natal progress of these birthdates. The readers who would like to know how to do things at the right time, and how get ahead should be the Tarachua. The Tarachua is New York Age, 230 West 135th Replying to a puzzled pastor who complained of the attitude of the Negro press toward the ministry as an attempt to destroy their influence, the Florida Seminel admitted that "there are hundreds of thoroughly competent, honest, intelligent and fair members of the Negro clergy who attempt to serve the people with a zeal, that knows no abatement." It added; however, that this type is in the minority, saying: Our observations and experience prove to us that the majority of the Negro ministry are the greatest exponents of voluntary jim crowism. Despite the fact that colored pages in white dailies ultimately develop bad race relations and give tangible evidence to the white man's argument that the Negro is inferior and therefore must be segregated the average Negro press with head first attacks to crowf iofl idow attempts to huddle the masses of Negroes around him because "it's as white man's paper." The ministry has long been coziedider a profession, one of the supposed learned professions. The doctor and lawyer must spend years in school and pass a standardized examination. The average preacher does not. He must have a majority of them have taken advantage of their privilege to be "called." Consequently the majority of the Negro ministry has not kept up with educationally, although almost every other preacher takes the liberty to address himself as Doctor and signs a D. D. behind him. The average minister is morally as bad as the average citizen in the community. He does not hold a good reputation for paying his debts and in many cases cannot be relied upon for truth or dependability. However, he has a fierce battle against public immorality and vice. Around the church and in the Negro neighborhood the underworld stretches forth, the bolita parade, the moonshine joint sells its death medicine, the assignation house flourishes, the pool room enmores the youth and the gambling joint keeps in mind the gambling joint preacher does not open his mouth; he does not denounce open vice and call upon his members to stop drinking bootleg liquor and to halt in the mad rush to pay the bolta barons. It closed by offering its columns for a "defense on ability and logic rather than sentiment and twaddle." Noting the coming into St. Louis of a life and accident insurance company of Louisville, KY, the St. Louis Argus greeted the newcomer as follows: We are quite sure that the other insurance companies welcome the agency force into this virgin field, to the location that the Negro insurance companies located here may thus be enabled to handle and control more of the tricks on the lives of the colored people of this city. Then, too, this new race enterprise coming to our city takes quarters in the People's Finance Building along with the other insurance companies, and, by so doing, St. Louisians are already enjoying the fruits of its coming here. Adding the agency force of the Domestic Finance company of the other international earnest a nice army of intelligent earnest men and women will be in this field. It is very significant to have men and women of the race rinsing the door bells of our people as solicitors, collectors, etc. It will be an inspiration to the boys and girls of the race to visit the People's Finance building and see the business activities going on there, as well as to see the professional men and women of the race to greatly in scissifying and building a race. In this, we are sure that the Domestic Life, with its agency force, will gladly make its contribution. The recent address of William Green, president of the American Federation of Labor, before the Pullman Porters organization in New York, indicates that urgent need, as seen by President Green, in heading the Negro away from the friendly gestures of Communists, whom Green characterized as "loose, irresponsible men and women having never read history, will bring strange and impossible philosophy." DeBouis wants to shake himself. The world is moving on while he stands still. What is happening, to him happens to us all. The radical of today is the conservative of to morrow. We watch people who have large groups following them. The federal government is watching street, New York City. The birthdate, month, year, hour, and place must be given correctly. If the hour of birth is not known the time of day, morning or evening, and the date of the month, should be written at the top of the letter. This paragraph and a stamped and self-address envelope should accompany the birthdate. All communications the confidential Garvey and all of white labor is alarmed at the advance of the radical left wing of the working class movement in America. In the melee, DuBois is forgotten. At the same time the Oklahoma editor insists that the ideas for which Dr. DuBois has been fighting have not been realized here in America, and points to lynching, jimcrowism, disfranchisement and segregation as still remaining on the South's agenda. Pointing to the fact that a local finance corporation has issued its semi annual dividend checks for the third or fourth time, the Birmingham Reporter said: A financial institution controlling a good share of the money spent by Negroes in 'Birmingham would go far toward solving some problems in regard to the economic situation. There is a large amount of business in Birmingham the should be a Negro institution in a Negro institution kind. The pope of competing in business lies in amassing Negro capital in quantities large enough to assure life to small enterprises in the early stages of their growth period. Perhaps the lesson and the meaning of cooperation and merging may strike into the affairs of Negro before it is the yet present trend of things there must be something done to save the small business man, who in too stupid to read the signs of the time and avoid the fate of a stifling overhead. It appears yet, impossible to get enough Negro's interest in one line of business to agree on a plan by which the business can get service and profit through mutual efforts and interest. We may preach co-operation, as we have, but there is yet the implication that sermons on co-operation always apply to the other fellow and the exemplification of it is a method entailing the surety of the removal of all doubts and disadvantages for others. What may be said for the need of co-operation in connection with this financial institution may be said of other lines of endeavor in business. The proportion of business done by Negroes 'and,' for Negroes grow less in Birmingham instead of more for there are numbers of establishments by which Negroes establish for Negro trade recently and this number is encroaching on the lines formerly conceded to be unquestionably settled for Negro trade. The Birmingham editor closed with an expression of wonder, "why the Negro is so slow to perceive that the process of cutting each other's throats in business is economic suicide." Commenting on the statement that D- Hiram N. Evans, imperial wizard of the Ku Klux Klan, wants the Fifteenth amendment repealed, the Baltimore Herald and Commonwealth said: The Klan is in its desiccation, no doubt with Negro disfranchisement as a rallying cry it can put renewed life into dying cohorts, stir the prejudice and passion, and join them into the crowd of sheets and night-shirts and prod them to activity, that thus the "integrity and purity of the white race may be-preserved and its most gregalization be prevented. He declared seventy odd years ago that the United States "could not exist half slave and half free." He spoke then of chattel slavery his prophetic forecast was given seismn and authoritative confirmation of his own Emancipation Proclamation. But the destruction of chattel slavery has not brought full freedom to this country; it is still half slave and half free politically and cannot so exist. In the words of Lincoln it must become all free or all slave and the Klan's crusade may determine which it is to be. The Baltimore editor thinks such an issue will determine "whether the people of this country are willing to follow the lead of a blooded organization whose sole aim and purpose is power and self." Noting the Tuskegee relaits showing the small number of litchings in the first half of this year, the Palmetto Leader of Columbia pronounced it "a gratifying showing, viewed from one angle, but disgraceful from the standpoint of civilization and Christianity" it continued. Four lynchings only, but it is not four too many. What is the matter any way with the self-governing ability of southern whites that it is necessary to supplement the organized system of order in the administration of the laws? No, it is not. The following states with the battling average are in the race for the lynching pennant. Florida 2. Mississippi 1: Tennessee 1. So, Florida has the edge, but look out for our Mississippi Tennessee finds itself in rather strange company in late years she has been succeeding in passing a new state law. Of the four lynchings I was a white man. The offenders were were Rape 2: Killing plantation owner 1: Not removing rubbish and resisting an officer 1: Of course there are the excuses given. The real reason, however for the lynchings is the inability of the whites in these sections to administer honestly their own law. If the lynchers even thought that they would be punished for violating the law, there would not have been a single lynching. That is a pretty accurate diagnosis of the cause of lynching in a South Carolina editor, who knows where he lives. CHURCH AND RELIGIOUS ACTIVITIES Kefuge Church of Christ the tenth anniversary of the Religious Church of Christ of the Apostolic Faith, founded and pasted by Bishop R. C.

St. Cyprian's Chapel The regular 8 a.m. communion service was held with Father John Wesley Johnson in charge. The usual - Sunday excursionists were present, seeking God's blessing before undertaking their journey. The preacher at the 11 a.m. service was Father J. W. Johnson, who preached an instructive and in-teaching sermon from the 17th chapter 20th, 21st verses of St. John, on "Christian Unity," and stated during his discourse, that conditions were at present just as they were during the life of Christ on earth. "These people honor me with their lips. But their heart is far away from me. But in vain do they worship me. Teaching as doctrines the injunctions of men." The vicar made an appeal for Christian unity between our own churches of every denomination and stated he hoped the day was near at half when in every church throughout the land the Negro would pray in unison for such things in this country, the actual giving of political equality and opportunities, and the doing away with color prejudice in this country and throughout the entire world. The preacher at the 8 p.m. service was the Rev. Harold McClean. The bus ride conducted by Secretary Payne of the Brotherhood of St. Andrew, was a success. Guy C. Payne is chairman of our excursion committee which will give a boat excursion to Hook Mountain on August 22. Once again we announce that the Rev. Emmett E. Miller of the Bishop Payne Divinity School will preach his first sermon next Sunday morning and we are requesting that he attend and we will be less as the members of our congregation will be present to give him the proper welcome. Grace Church of Harlem The size of the congregation at Grace Church on Sunday showed that a goodly number of the members are away on a vacation. However a number of friends in attendance helped to swell the number. Dr Garner took his text from Joshua Jr chapter 30 verse, "Saintly yourselves, for to-morrow the Lord will do wonders among you." The lesson taught was that if we are good christians today and do the will of God by doing the very best that we can that tomorrow He will repay us by bestowing His favor upon us. The choir was augmented by the presence of Ballard Major, bass soloist who sang in a most pleasing manner. "It is enoughed" from the Elijah. Sunday school convened at 9:15 a.m. and the Graecondis Club at 2:15 p.m. The 7 clock server service in charge of Cleveland G. Allen was most interesting.

Miss Parrot has been appointed plays ground attendant and will be on hand from 1 to 9 p.m. every day throughout the summer. It is to be hoped that the children of the crush and of the society will take advantage of the shower and other facilities and come in large numbers. Much credit and thanks to Dr. Garner who has worked unrelentlessly to make this a success. Next Sunday morning committee will be served and the staff advisers of the entrance to Grace Church will be celebrated with a special program. Dr. A. C. Garner will preach the anniversary sermon. Don't forget the excursion on August 9. Dr. Garner will have on-call on August 11. Part vacation will be spent at a conference in Virginia.

M Strachan, pastor of the Harley Second Seventh Day Altar, Church, and chaplain of the Women's Prison on Welfare Island under auspices of the Harley Branch of the New York Federation of Churches, at the St. James Presbyterian Church on Jaffa Sunday morning. This patient smiles with which the address was delivered, together with the wonderful personality of the speaker, much to drive the message straight home to the hearts of his brethren. Even in stand, reserved, emotional, St. James there was heard "Amen" and again "Amen". Dr. Wm Iloyd Imes, the pastor, after conducting the service, at the Women's Prison in the morning place of Dr. Strachan filled his own pulpit in the evening giving his annual book reading sermon. After a most encouraging and successful session, the D V B S closes on Friday. At 8 p.m. the children will be presented in an interesting and entertaining program and will have on exhibition their handwork etc. Refreshments will be served free. During the month of August, on the first Sunday, in September, while De Jimes is on vacation there will come distinguished monsters from various sections of this country to fill his pulpit. On next Sun- WHERE TO GO TO CHURCH WHERE TO GO TO CHURCH --- day the Rev. Benjamin F. Glasco of the Bidwell Street Presbyterian Church, Pittsburgh, will speak to the members and friends of St James. Dr. Glasco has the well-learned reputation of being one of the most forceful and effective evangelists in the Presbyterian connection, and his coming is looked forward to with a great deal of pleasure. Williams Institutional C. M. E. Church We were favored with two helpful sermons by the Rev. B. J. Smith of Chicago. Rev. Simo assumes executive charge of the church for a season. This is made necessary by the illness of the pastor, Dr. P. A. Bryson who is now convulsing at his home, 210 West 130th street. Rev. Smith is director of religious education of the Eighth Episcopal Church and private secretary to Bishop J. Arthur Hamlett. Large audiencescreted him at each service. The choir, under the direction of W. Calhoun, furnished splendid music.

Olivet Baptist Church The morning service at Mr. Olivet Baptist Church was well attended, Sunday, July 28, in spite of the humidity of the weat er. A barkone solo was excellently rendered by Deacon Eugene Tompkins. Rev. Pennold Nebhur, professor at Union Theological Seminary, preached from the text taken from Matthew 3:23 and 24. "Therefore if you bring thy gift to the altar and then remember that thy brother must against thee, leave there thy gift before the altar and go thy way, first be reconciled to thy brother and then come and offer thy gift." He spoke of those who are willing to dissociate themselves from their own race or group for the standard of right, of those who are too comfortable by not being sensitive enough as to feel their re-liability, and of the quantity of faith which is found in love, then family love. He emphasized religion which is spoken and that it is shown in practice. Mrs. Anna White rendered the half part to a selection of the choir, excellently. Her clear soprano wrote thelied the audience.

Fifteen persons joined the club and pledged to aid the church in erecting the home. Berean Baptist Church Although it was rather warm on Sunday the members of the Berean Baptist Church can truly say it paid them to come out and bear what the pastor had in store for them. His text was found in Acts 4.13, subject. "Boldness of a True Christian." If you have been with Jesus you are bold as lions; it gives knowledge that the world knows nothing of a boldness that can be seen; you are bold at all times. We were proud to admit into the fold seven young persons. The Sunday school held its closing session. The B. Y. P. U. held its closing session also. session also. In the evening the Masons were on the ground. The program was splendid and the pastor delivered another, fine, message. On last Wednesday the Bible School closed a successful summer session. The children regretted it but the teachers deserve the rest. Thursday, Ward 4 went to Rockaway by moonlight to the Alberta where they were served a wonderful supper, after which they went to the amusements that only Rockaway can afford and returned home at 1230. Ward 8 was served as the winning ward for the largest attendance at prayer meeting on last Friday night. The leader, J Simpkins, was proud to see how his members rallied. Nazarene Conz. Church The Rev. Dw. Henry Hugh Proctor filled his palpit at both services last Sunday, speaking at the morning hour on "The Message of a Prophet," telling of permanent truths from Ezekiel, "the destructiveness of sin, the necessity of repentance, and the immortality of the soul." At the evening hour he drew a picture of the river of life flowing amid all the shores of humanity, healing, purifying and refreshing. At the evening hour the music by the choir was especially good.

The Sacrament of The Lord's Supper will be administered at the morning hour of worship next Sunday. Concord Baptist Church Expressing without doubt his belief that God operates through man in all walks of life, Rev Jas. B. Adams, at the Sunday morning services, said that twenty-five years ago Stewart of the Standard Oil Company of Illinois would probably not have been called to account for the things that have been the tales of the newspapers recently. But that since that time God has been working in that company and even though John D. 'Rockefeller' Ir was in Egypt he had the power to tell Stewart to quit because he did not stand for the principles of righteousness. At that same service Robert P. Hamilton was re-introduced to the congregation as Dr. Hamlin having had the honor of degree of master of arts conti- tued in Shaw University. Mr. Hamlin is a deacon in Concord Baptist Church and a very important factor, in the chain of Y. M. C. A. work in three states. ST.

A College Prearatory Department, Training School for Nurses, and School for Religious and Social Workers are connected with the College. Thorough training, healthy environment, Christian influences.

The education and amusement of one of two or three hundred young men and cared for lives useful to themself and their families and course a commendable and helpful work, but that was only one part of what be did and sought to do. His purpose was to radiate from a center like Tuskegee the light of the humanity, even the truth which must form the basis of advance for his race, or any one WILLIAM HOWARD. TAFT, Chief Justice United States Supreme Court. THE TUSKEGEE NORMAL AND INDUSTRIAL INSTITUTE Founded by BOOKER T. WASHINGTON Offers Excellent Opportunities to Young Men and Women to Secure an Excellent Literary and Normal Course, and a Course in Mechanical Industries; Women's At the evening service, following the sermon by the pastor, six young women were baptized and three young men. One boy of eight years, John Ferguson, belongs to a family of eight children, all of whom, and the father and mother are present every Sunday at 9:30 for Sunday school, and remain for morning service, and often return in the evening. Free children from this family have a perfect record in the Daily Vacation Bible School. About four hundred people received a $1 ride for $1.50 from the Sunday school, to Northern University last Thursday, and enjoyed it immensely. Organized games were conducted by the athletic committee. The B. Y. P. U. has paid its quota of $125 for sending thirty children to Sunshine Acres for ten days and the kiddies are happy in anticipation. Christian Churches Holds Tri-State Conference In N. Y.

N.—One hundred and twenty-nine women and girls representing 41 cities in 21 states constituted the progressive and sincere gathering that was the annual community conference of the Young Women's Christian Association which met at the West Virginia State College, July 7.[24] In this eight-day session, the problem of the adolescent and postadolescent girl were attacked with remarkable energy and were much reached which will be set motion in Branch Y W. C. Ats all over the country. Of the 129, 22 were regular secretaries, 41 general members, 15 leaders, 50 Girl Reserve. THE and 16 employed girls. The conference was carried out with courage and intensity communicate with the rising and distressing significance of these growing girl problems. Hikers, songs, socials and lectures were the principal daily activities participated in and enjoyed by all the delegates. The devotional period every morning lasted from 8:45 until nine. The spiritual theme of the conference was "The Family of God," offering a beautiful new interpretation of community christianity for which the Y. W. C. A. stands on a basis of practical idealism. The Community, the Girl and the Y. W. C. A., was the specific topic for discussion in this connection. The daily program included also an afternoon recreational hour, an hour for the convocation of secretaries and volunteers and an evening program, which was a creative effort, each night of great attraction. In addition there were miscellaneous extra activities, employing nearly every resource of the Branch Conference and the College. The Religious activities pursued by Rev. John M. Miles, popular minister of the Chattanooga Tennessee, who came as religious advisor. The discussions and demonstrations acquainting the Conference with the industrial conditions of the nation were in the hands of Alono C. Thayer, Urban League representative of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, rounded out and almost perfectly balanced program whose execution was tremendously successful and effective. Public features of the Community Conference were the Sunday morning services at which time the Rev. Mr. Miles delivered an excellent and exceedingly apt presentation; the Sunday afternoon musical; the Tuesday night program and the closing ceremonies on Wednesday night, which sustained their reputation of previous years for beauty and impressiveness. The exhibits offered by Girl Reserved were imposing and quite educational. The officers at the helm of the Community Conference were: Conference executive, Mrs. Cordelia A. Winn of New York City; hostess, C. P. Jenkins, Harrisburg, Penn; registrar, Isis Pauline Massey of St. Louis, M. physician, Dr. Dorothy C. Building of Washington, D. C.; reception director, Mrs. Charlotte Cost of Indianapolis, Ind.; music director, Mrs. Rachel Taylor of Pittsburgh, Pa.

Negro League Philadelphia, Pa—The second half pennant in the American Negro league may be won by Baltimore, the club which finished at the top in the final semester, and then again there are several reasons why it may not. Those reasons are the Homestead Grays, the Lincoln Giants, Hildale, Bacharachs and Cuban Stars. At this time five of the six outfits have a good chance to cop the buating. No teams have shown as much improvement as the Bacharachs and Halliwell The Darby and the Shore boys have at last rounded into form and will cause plenty of trouble for all of them. Ben Taylor, veteran pilot on the B-Grants, is getting results and the potential power of his machine is being felt. His pitching staff has been the big hole on the club but Gardner, Henderson, Cade, Shields, McClure and Cooper look better each game. Losing Luther Farrell, who joined the Atlantic City police, was a big blow. Carr is functioning well at first base while Day is the fielding equal of anyone at the keystone sack. Walker has overcome his nervousness and is doing well in the short field. Lindsey is playing a better game now than in years. Ambrose Red, the brilliant utility man, is still troubled with a sore arm. Behind the bat juggled and Jones leave nothing to be desired although the latter has been a physical most of the season. No outfield surprise Thomas, White and Jenkins' field with the mallet The weak-hitting Nlevens has rejoined Hildale and his sensation at fielding has put new pep in the pocket. The strong arm and big bag are on the HATE BRIDGE, JOICE PLAYED IN A GAME WITH HAL CHASE, AND IT CORT ME PLENTY JUST WATCH YOURSELF YOU DON'T REVOKE JOE WILLIAMS IN OLD FORM AS HE BEATS LINCOLNS Pitches Homestead Grays To Victory In First Game On Sunday "Smoky Joe" Williams, now with the Homestead Grays of Pittsburgh, flashed the form that made him known as the best colored pitcher in the country ten years ago and handed the Lincoln Giants a 10-0 defeat before one of the largest crowds of the season at Protectory Oval Sunday, July 28. Williams had the Lincoln practically at his mercy for the first six innings of the game, and although he allowed a total of 13 hits, they were kept so well scattered, the local team did not profit very much by them. Manager John Henry Lloyd sent Rector, his pitching ace, to the mound in the second game and made a strong comeback, to win by a score of 14-5. Both games were featured by heavy hitting. Johnnie Beckwith's big bat rang for two home runs and a double in the first game. He was closely followed for batting honors by George Seales, who made a home run, a double and a single in four trips to the plate. Other home runs in this game were made by Jackson and Smith. Seales continued his phenomenal batting by getting three hits in four trips to the plate in the second contest. He did not get a home run but he managed to get two doubles. Vic Harris made two home runs and Gray and Smith also got homers in this game. Holland opposed Smoky Joe Williams in the first game and Rector was opposed by Lefty Williams and Sam Streeter. The box Scores were as follows. John Henry Lloyd boasts the leading hitter of the current in Charlie Smith, the leading twerfer is Connie Recoft the leading second baseman is George Scales. No leader has built better than the Old Master who took a bunch of cast-offs and made a permanent contender out of them. Lloyd is himself playing a remarkable game. He has made other more assertive than any other in his man. This club will be in the fight until the final game of I miss my guess. The Baltimore Black Sox have not yet settled their right, hold problem but a team with the strength of Warfield can afford to have one weak spot. The air question of Nippon Jim Winters was a good end to the Sox for he has been able to till at first base and allow the use of Jud Wilson on the outfield. Lattimore has been a splendid relief for Clark in hauling the pitcher. The Sox showed their class when they took out one six-gaves from the Grays last week and brought the Pittsburghers back to the pack. From row on the urban will he better. Pompey has added Rosell, Michele Vargas, Ruz Gomez, Beerams and Navarro to his role and they will plug up all of the holes. A bright spot in the teams play thus hat has been the consistent work of the veterans Perez, Lako, Ohtani and Baird and the new stars Ryman and Currier. the team's offense and about 10 percent in the major league which weakered the team on the closing day of the ball off. We will strengthen our defense. Wakermann on the wing might desperately be well pitted against the team has won several well pitted games since return to the club and the league now is now the strongest in the league. The big bats of Beckwith, Cannanby, Lwynn and other well-known players a hit. THE NEW YORK AGE PROVOKE WHO? I'N'T AFRAID OF NO ONE OF THESE HAMS REVOKE IT MEANS FAILING TO FOLLOW SUIT THEATRES OF HARLEM At The New Douglas One of the most powerful dramatic picture plays that the new talking screen has offered is the headliner at the New Douglas Theatre this coming Saturday, Sunday and Monday. It is called Father and Son, a Columbia talking production. Stories of the supreme sacrinecing tendency of mothers love have long been the theme for motion pictures and fiction writers. Similar stories of paterson devotion have somehow been neglected. We often become a trifle, proteus-striken when we think of the inglorious reputation surrounding our male parent—a provider that and nothing more. Rarely do we hear or him as a distorted person in the sense that he is confronted with a spiritual struggle which will allow him to make a martyr of himself for the sake of his child.

Connie's Hot Chocolates is just about the liveliest evenings entertainment any one could wish for bide Dudley... the World. MATS THURSAND SAT at 2:30 ICE COOLLED HUDSON THEA W44 IN ST EVES at 13:30 By RING LARDNER next week, the New Doughs will offer a rottous comedy of the spoof" type "The House of Horror" with that unimitable team or im-makers, Louise Farenda and Chester Conklin, who is supported by the beautiful Thelma Todd. Those who enjoyed, a delightful mixture of mystery and comedy are sure to enjoy "The House of Horror." At The Alhambra Theatre "Tempest and Sunshine," the famous play from the novel by Mary J. Holmes that has been read by millions all over the world, is at the Alhambra Theatre this week. "The drama is sometimes called "Sister Against Sister." Edna Barr plays the part of Fannie, the sister who has "a heart of sunshine." Bessie Wrightson is Julia, the sister who has the "unrest of the tempest." The two sisters are rivals for the love of the same man, and the conflict rises to a highly emotional climax. Q course it is the gentle sister who, in the end, wins happiness in the most unexpected manner. "The Joy Ride" by the Alhambra comedians and girls scores a record of laughs. It starts on a flying field, as the "joy ride" is an airplane flight. Johnny Lee Long, Pigmeat Markham and Mandu Randolph are in the lead of the fun-makers. The girls have a comical "chicken walk" in which the irrepressible Florence Wilson does some capital clowning. Louis Dandridge, the popular Putney, takes command of the Night Hawks Band, Edgar Hayes and all, and leads them through a lot of stunts, and everybody has a wonderful time, performers included. There's an extra added attraction that is a great surprise—the Aunt Iemima Trio direct from Ziegfield's "Showboat." The inuous singers are Anglene Lawson, Ismay Andrews and Estelle Floud. The picture feature of the triple program is Back Stage," a photoplay of theatrical life, with William Collier, Jr. Next Week's Show "Hooch" is the significant title of next week's drama at the Alhambra. It deals with desperate whiskey smugglers, hijackers and corrupt Federal agents in the boldest manner. And there's a bit of a love story, too, in this very up-to-date play "Wild Youth" is called a breezy affair of fun, song and dance that is said to break the speed limit, and will present a number of newcomers to the Alhambra. The picture feature will be "A Woman Against the World" in which popular Best Lautel appears Renaissance Theatre Richard Day, in *Nothing But the Truth*, just first all-talking picture, is the aracoon now playing until Friday at the Renaissance Theatre See and heat the wonderful story of love, position and happiness, all based on the truth You will enjoy this. At considerable expense the management is bringing to the Renaissance beginning Saturday, August 8, for five days that can include an all-talking, all-singing all-dancing picture, with Charles (Budd) Rogers, Nansy Cafoll, Jack Oakie, Richard (Skeets) Gallagher and Harry Green The story, founded on back-stage life, and written by Elise Janis and Gene Markey, has the real atmosphere of a big picture theatre The success of a jazz band leader, At The Lafayette Theatre Leonard Harper is the creator of this week's novel show at the Lafayette Theatre. It is called the Brown and Pink Revue and employs a cast of fifty colored and white entertainers. Exactly one year has passed since a combination musical comedy of this kind has been staged in Harlem and the audience showed its appreciation by calling for encore after and keeping the snow on long after it was scheduled to close. It is hard to say which of the two companies—white or colored—is better. Two of the white boys absolutely "stopped the show" with an eccentric dance following a pretty chorus number entitled "The Wedding of the Painted Doll." After the boys explained that they were fatigued and would back again in a few minutes, the applause continued until it mounted to an ovation. Billy, Mike Kelly, the main come was also well received as was also the talented and both coachetes. prima donna and four southerners. Following the white portion of the show, Mera Johnson opened the colored portion. The applause which greeted her and the beautiful chorus of twelve Brownskin Beauties, befitted Miller and Lales or the idolized "Bojangles." With unsurpassed sim, the colored company went through their dances, singing and comedy in a manner which brought howls of laughter and storms of applause. Wilton Crawley is the individual hit of the show. Since this versatile artist left Lew Leslie's Blackbirds, he has appeared in some of the largest theatres of the country. Recently, he was the feature attraction at the monster and palatial Paramount Theatre. As a master of the clarinet, as a contortionist and acrobatic clapper and as a "minime," Crawley is without a peer. The Monday audience cheered him to the echo. The photoplay part of the big program, included as the feature the .100 percent all-talking drama "High Voltage" starring William Boyd. This is a gripping drama of two men and a woman trapped in the frozen wastes of the Arctic. One could hear a gun drop in the theatre as the story unfolded. At The Roosevelt Eddie Dowling, "Broadway's Favorite Son," will be seen at the Roosevelt this Saturday, "Sunday and Monday, August 3, 4 and 5 in "The Rainbow Man." "The Rainbow Man," his initial attempt in the movies, is the kind of audible-screen material that the public likes. It has romance, pathos, action and drama, and sparkling catchy melodies, which are intelligently played and sung as part of the plot. Dowling wrote the story which forms the basis for the plot, wrote the lyrics for James Hanley's inclusions, and performed the leading role. The film therefore, is not only all-talking, but it is nearly all-Dowling. The plot has to do with a small time minstrel man who meets a little girl in a Southern town and falls in love with her. He loses his job through a misunderstanding, and, goes to New York, penniless, to hunt for work. After many heart-breaks, he finds a job, returns to the Southern town with his minstrel troupe again, and one day sees the girl he had deserted in the audience. He stops in the middle of the song and pleads for the girl's love while the audience it is part of the act. The ending is a happy one. Martion Darro as the girl and Frankie Darro as the little orphan whom he adopts, are Dowling's main Supports in the film. Sam Hardy and Lloyd Ingraham contribute some intelligent acting in their minor roles. In addition to the feature, the Roosevelt will have a new chapter of "The Fatal Warning" starring Ralph Graves and Helen Costello, and a Stan Laurel and Babe Hardy talking comedy entitled "That's My Writie" Tuesday and Wednesday August 7 and 7 will bring Belle Bennett to the Roosevelt's screen in a talking, singing and dancing drama at life and love backstage, "Molly and Me" his love for the star singer and dancer, and the inevitable happy ending, together with the excellent singing and dancing in "Close Harmony," make it a picture that is really one of the season's outstanding ones. Another scoop for the Renaissance is the announcement that on August 15, "Fox Moustone Follies" have been the biggest summer hit on Broadway and it comes to Harlem direct from the seat of the world's greatest theat Miss Izire Clough, well known artist, will enter the east of "Salome", which is now playing its third week at the Cherry Lane Theatre down at 40 Commerce street on Tuesday evening. Miss Clough has been secured to play the featured role of Herodias. Supporting Miss Clough is Hammley Winfield, who is still successfully bringing packed houses to the Cherry Lane by his unique interpretation of the title role of Salome."

Simm and entertaining programs, including positions from the masters. They Justin Sandridge played his last recital for this season of music for the pianoforte on Monday, July 22, at 9 p. m. The chief works were Beethoven's "Sonata Pathetique" and Liszt's "Ballade." The Introduction or Grave of "Sonata Pathetique" lacked the dramatic eloquence which is to set the key to the sonata. The Allegro was played with speed and crispness; in the following movement, the Adagio, a superb singing tone was evident, while the Rondo was played in a sparkling manner. Two Chopin Preludes and a Nocturne ensued. The Nocturne was played with great poetic expression. Coleridge-Taylor's "African Idy" and "Deep River," and Melville Charlton's "Poeme Erotique" were played with animation. The next group consisted of three impressionistic tone-pictures by Debussy, The Interrupted Serenade, "The Submerged Cathedral" and Randrops in the Garden. These three gems of the French master were played with such exquisite finesse of tonal luster that it is difficult to say which was the best. For this writer, "The Submerged Cathedral" was the best of this group because Mr. Sandridge gave this work a new reading with his rare artistic sense and impeccable pedaling. The last number of the scheduled program was the formidable Liste: "Ballade." This work was played with such overwhelming virtuosity such infinite capacity for eloquent nuance and aplomb, that the splendid pianist was vociferously applauded by the large audience. Mr Sandridge graciously consented to play four encores. The Concert Etude in D Flat Major by Liszt and the C Sharp Minor Preade by Rachmaninoff were played with great refulgence and verve. MONARCH BAND TO PLAY TWO PROGRAMS Lieut. Fred W. Simpson, director of the Monarch Symphony Band and Orchestra, has been informed by city officials that his organization has been assigned two additional dates in the free weeknight open air park concerts, played at St. Nicholas Park, 135th street and St. Nicholas avenue. The dates are Wednesday evenings, August 7 and 14. For these concerts, Lieut.

ACTIVITIES AMONG UNION MUSICIANS By PERCIVAL OUTRAM It might be a means of keeping in touch with leaders who contract with radio studios, or it might be to prevent the indiscriminate habit of some musicians who thing the practice is conducive to getting a paying engagement—whatever the reason, Local 602 has issued in the July number of the "Official Journal" the following notice: "On and after September 1, 1929, all radio engagements must be reported at the office of the secretary, and the contract must be filed. This applies to special (single) and regular (steady) engagements." So when Tom, Dick and Harry asks you to make a rehearsal to play for the radio, find out whether he has a contract or not, and how much, will be paid you for the engagement. Few musicians in Harlem but have at one time or another gone to some broadcasting studio to play gratis, and have exhorted their friends to listen in and report "how it came over." Few, if any, have been paid for the service (exceptions might have been outstanding groups like Fletcher Henderson or Duke Ellington, and it is doubtful whether any material gain was attained by the service. The "Official Journal" also gives notice that the two per cent tax for the "Theatre Defense Fund" "was amended to include those employed in making sound pictures." Payment of this tax makes you eligible to benefit in case of a strike. Also in the "Journée" there is a report from San Francisco that fifteen houses under the all-talkie system have returned to vaudeville as part of the theatre program. This brought an immediate box office response and the belief is that before the fall all northern California will have reengaged the theatre orchestras. Ernest Edmead is a banjo player. Some months past, in a good Samaritan act, he was severely burned in going to the assistance of persons who were trapped in a fire house in which he lives. Last week he fainted who is the ector of a church, had an excursion for the benefit of the Sunday school children. To render all aid possible to the worthy cause, Ernest did not play the job, but busied himself for the comfort of the large gathering. When the boat neared the dock of its destination, Ernest, in some way, got his feet entangled in the ropes on the deck and in a trice he was overboard and swimmer, he swam to the pier and willing tands hoisted him to terra firma none the worse for his immersion. "Pirates of Penzance" Sung At Greensboro Greensboro, S. C.—An able cast presented "The Pirates of Penzance," at A. and T.

Ind.—The Basuto- Nyasaland Foundation has been organized by a group of women, leaded by Mrs. Emily E. Vernon, wife of Bishop W T Vernon of the A. M. E. Church, with the purpose to aid in a concrete way in the development of educational and religious effort in Africa. Their first task is sponsoring the education of Hastings Akim Kamusa' Banda, a young native African, a graduate from Wilberforce in 1928, and now a student in Indiana University, where he has ended his first year. The organization is not a missionary, society nor, is it officially a part of the A. M. E. connectional activity, but a number of the leading churchmen are lending their aid and support. Banda has an uncle, H. M. C. Phirre, who is an ordained minister in Central Africa, and was inspired by his relatives work to secure an education for himself. He walked a thousand miles through the jungle to reach Bishop Vernon who promised to send for him later, which he did. He was assisted by Bishop J. A. Gregg in securing the necessary passports from South Africa to America. Mrs Vernon, before returning to her home in Detroit stated that an opportunity of the new station provides for the completion of Banda's education and the placing of $10,000 in a trust fund to support the work in Basutoland and Nyasaland.

The conversation was finally extended to the porters, those of yesterday and those of today. It ended with the following colloquy: "Do you observe any difference in the crop of summer-porters that they are hiring today from those that were hired years ago?" asked veteran number one. "There is a difference," answered number two, "but I just can't tell what it is." "Oh, pahaw, I'll tell you what it is: Those summertime porters of today don't know anything about art, literature and science," retorted number three. At first, the last observation sounded more facetidus than sensible. On second thought, the drift of the speaker's meaning became clear. He was referring to the school boys who used to be so largely employed in the Pullman service during the summer season. Yes, the oldimer was right in a way; art, literature and science are remote subjects in the service these days. No more does one hear the artistry of Whisler-discussed; the merits of Keats and Emerson argued; the science of geometry and trigonometry expounded before an audience of attentive but uncomprehending fellow porters. No more does one have to waver in allegiance to one's favorite essayist, author and poet. The debaters, critics and analysts are characters of the past around Pullman yards and quarters these days. Now and then one may hear, and even see, a description of art, but it is of the sort that one might see any day in the streets of Harlem. Each summer brings, as usual, new faces, with their differentisms, but these faces and aims are not of the school room type. Whether the summer porter of today makes a more suitable employee for the service than the summer porter of former days, is a question. Supervisors of the various Pullman employment bureaus say his does. In proof of this, they point to the fact that with the school-vacation porter, the job was merely used as a temporary exigency, whereas, the average summer porter of today enters the service with the idea of making it a permanent job. meets in the summer now is better for the Pullman service business.

The key note of the training for the term now ended was the "Call of Christ", with the story, of the Good Samaritan to exemplify that "Call" in action. The climax of this ideal was reached when the childrenstaged, in the mission yard, realistic drama of the parable, with thieves, victim, Levite, Samaritan and Jericho Inn, portrayed with youthful enthusiasm. Mr. Caution further related that in his school the Bible was taught in a practical way "The parable of the Good Samaritan was used to emp. phasianic Jacob's act of hump-neighborlines, that all races practise for their mutual good and the course that promises the utmost means to attain this end is to drill it into the minds of children, in inter-racial assemblages. "The public schools fail to teach the Bible, but I consider the Bible and the dictionary the two greatest books; and with such a valuation their contents demean that children be thoroughly drilled in what these books teach." The school was open for four weeks, with an enrollment of 600 scholars, and an average attendance of 60. The crafts, shown in the basement, consisted of wearable summer dresses; airplanes, games and boats; rag-dolls, china lan- tars and paper cutouts. The ages of these "craftsmans" ran from 2 to 15 years. NOTICE 1 CORRESPONDENTS Please have your news items in by Tuesday morning of each week.

W. Stewart, president of the National Federation of Colored Women's Clubs, told a group of New York women at a public meeting in Salem M. E. Church Tuesday evening, July 30. 1.8.8.9 1.9.2.9 Today It's Style with Comfort GOOD old days, back there in the 'eighties,' we so often say. Yet who would want to again live through those times when style meant discomfort. Today, style is just as important as in the days gone by. But—style is combined with comfort. For instance, in the modern home of today there are conveniences we didn't even dream of thirty years ago. There are telephones of course—not just one, for that's a necessity. But telephones in the hall, in the kitchen, beside the bed, and in other locations as well. For modern New Yorkers must have comfort and convenience—in telephones as well as in everything else. And the cost—so little. Scarcely more than the daily paper! Have you as many telephone extensions as you really need? Just telephone and we'll see that you get as many as you want—promptly; our Business Offices are listed in the front of your telephone directory. NEW YORK TELEPHONE COMPANY Mrs. Stewart, who is an Evansville, Ind., school teacher, was expanding her plea for a better home environment for the youth of our race. In an earnest and frank discussion of some of the short-comings of our racial group, she said it was up to the mothers to give their boys and girls a better example and more ambition. She called attention to the present tendency in education to stress character training and said that the home-life of our race was breaking down faster than other groups Children Play In Streets. Because of the high rents in cities, families of four and five have been compelled to occupy 1 and 2 room apartments. In homes of this kind, the children are forced to go into the street and play and have practically no home life. It should be the ambition of any family with children to have a larger and better home if the family wants their children to amount to something, the speaker said. The founding of the Federation and some of its major accomplishments, including the purchasing of the Frederick Douglass Home at Anacostia, D. C., as a shrine for members of our group, the establishing of a national headquarters ill"Washington," and the establishing of a scholarship fund were reviewed. Her administratornto, Mrs. Stewart said, would seek to complete these projects but it would also strive to instill in the membership at this time this idea of a better home environment for our youth. Teach BELLE the children self control, how to save, set up yourselves or some member of your race as an example for them to follow and have them realize that they are born with all the rights of American citizenship, the speaker concluded. Touring The East. She is spending her vacation touring the East to awaken the clubs and state federations to a sense of duty in this direction. All the New York clubs were invited to attend the meeting at Salem Church to welcome Mrs. Stewart to the city but because of the extremely hot weather only about 300 women were present. After devotional exercises by the Rev E. A. Clark, pastor of Bethel A. M. E. Church, addresses of welcome were delivered by the following: James H. Hubert, on behalf of the Urban League Mrs. Eminah Rochon Bouthe, on behalf of the club women of the city not affiliated with the Federation; Alderdman F. R. Moore, on behalf of the City; Mrs. M. C. Lawton on behalf of the Empire State Federation; and Mrs. Julia P. H. Coleman, on behalf of the City Federation. Mrs. Addie W. Hunton, who recently completed a four-year term as head of the Empire State Federation of Women's Clubs, presided. At conclusion of the meeting the audience was given an opportunity to meet Mrs. Stewart in the basement of the church and to enjoy a repast prepared for the occasion 1*9*2*9 Bathing and other beach sports have become a fad with Harlemites this summer and the result is that one of New York's largest public beaches—Rockaway Beach, on the Atlantic Ocean—has been practically taken over by colored people. Last Sunday, competent observers report that no less than 50,000 colored people occupied a section of this beach one and one half miles long. Throughout the summer crowds of Harlemites have been swarming to this beach, and in addition there have been Sunday school picnics coming there from all the nearby towns in Westchester County and cities in New Jersey. For years the hotels, restaurants dancing pavilions, and some of the amusements, have followed a policy of discouraging New Yorkers. Now these places find themselves in the middle of the season with practically no business at all. The reason is this: Colored patrons of the beach, knowing of the former attitude of the restaurants, etc., bring their lunches and many bring their bathing suits. They use the bath houses, rent beach chairs, and patronize some of the "hot dog" stands and soda fountains, but do not go near the places where they formerly were not wanted. White people, formerly patrons of the beach, have stopped going there because of the large number of colored people. Hence, there is little or no business for the so-called high class concessions. Some of the owners of these places, like white residents of Harlem 15 years ago are selling, their concession privilege and moving away, while others are changing their attitude to meet the new conditions. It looks as though the various racial groups in New York are segregating themselves at separate beaches—the Jewish and Italian-Americans are the largest patrons of Coney Island, with the Irish and native American stock predominating at Brighton Beach; the Negroes have Rockaway Beach; the Germans have the beaches at Throgg's Neck and City Island in the Bronx, with Rye Beach on Long Island Sound becoming the rendezvous of the upper class native whites. There are, of course a number of private beaches about the city for exclusive groups. Bottle of Liquor Causes Death of Harlem Wife At Her Husband's Hands Following the death in Harlem Hospital of Mrs Mary Richard, 28, 71 East 128th street, from stab wounds about the body and abdomen, her husband, Isaac, 28, who is alleged to have attacked her in the hallway of 37 West 129th street, on July 21, was charged with homicide Monday. The charge of felonious assault against Richard was dismissed by Acting Chief Magistrate Simpson in Harlem Court. Richard was then placed in the custody of Sergt John Quinn, of the West 123rd street station, for arraignment in Homicide Court. According to the story told in court, Richard sent his wife to purchase a bottle of liquor from a man at the 129th street address. She failed to return home immediately and Richard went to look for her. He alleges he found her in the hallway in the company of two men. A quarrel ensued during which he is alleged to have drawn a knife and stabbed his wife repeatedly. Richard escaped after the stabbing, but was arrested a short time later when he returned home. His wife was removed to the hospital, where she died on last Friday. Richard told police his wife had the knife and tried to attack him. He fought with her for possession of the knife and in the struggle she was accidentally stabbed, he said Charged with beating and kicking his wife during an altercation in their home at 57 West 137th street, Frederick Pendleton. 32, was held in $2,500 bail for further hearing when he was arraigned before Magistrate Silbermann in Washington Heights Court Monday. Neighbors who hear the couple quarrelling lie in Policeman Sarzenegro of the West 135th street station, who arrested Pendleton. An amuance doctor, summoned by Sarzeno treated Mrs. Pendleton for internal injuries and permitted her to remain at home.

Burtt, former manger of the Lafayette Theatre, was held in $2,500 bail for the action of the Grand Jury on a charge of Grand Larceny Mr. Burtt was accused of robbing the theatre safe of $2,100 following the midnight show of July 19. Mr. Burtt, through his attorney, Ralph Warrick, made a general denial of the charges and sought to impugn the testimony of Benny Beaver, night watchman at The Lafayette, who stated that Mr. Burtt took him to Tabb's Restaurant for breakfast and then went back to the thigatre, on the alleged pretext of meeting a friend. It was at this time, according to Detective Garvey, that the robbery took place. Attorney Warrick made Beaver admit that he had been convicted of stealing tickets from The Lafayette and disposing of them to would-be customers. The testimony of Detective Garvey and an expert from Police Headquarters on safes tended to show that the robbery was an "inside" job. Garvey stated that the doors and windows of the office showed that whoever the robber was entered the premises with a key and the expert declared that the condition of the safe showed it had been opened by someone who knew the combination and afterwards the outside part of the combination had been broken. Mr. Burtt did not take the stanl. Medical Laboratory Formed In New Brunswick The officers are Dr. D. B. Ingram, president and treasurer; S. Mallett, vice-president and secretary; K.

Church In Baltimore To Buy New Church Building By THOMAS B. BURKE Dalitimore, Md.—The Rev. George F. Bragg, rector, and the vestry of St. James P. E. Church, have definitely decided to take over the church of the Church of The Ascension, Arlington and Lafayette avenues, in the fall, it was learned from a reliable source. The Howard street improvements, approved by the voters, call for the condemnation of properties along the proposed route, which including the St. James site, compels its vestry to seek another location. Changing neighborhood conditions surrounding Ascension coupled with other archeological matters, caused its vestry and congregation, which are white, to decide on incorporating with the Cathedral parish, which is located on the fashionable University Parkway and Charles street, and will hereafter be known as the Cathedral of The Ascension. The rumor that the plant will be given to St. James by the P. E. diocese is untrue. To the contrary, the parochial branch of the Women's Auxiliary has a sum already collected, and continues to collect towards the fund for purchasing the plant. But it is intimated that the price will be made as reasonable as is consistent with business. It is hoped that St. James, by having a more imposing cloife than its present home, and an adequate plant with which to carry on modern parochial activities will thus attract to itself a large and influential congregation which it so richly deserves. IN MEMORIAM In loving memory of our dear friend, Lousa B. Greenlee, who departed this life, July 29th, 1925. I will never forget thee as the days go by. L. B. CONYERS.
