TRUE STORY OF GRENTHAL'S PLEA FOR COMBINE RUMORED COHEN WILL BE LIBERIAN MINISTER Harry J. Edwards Reelected To 5th Consecutive Term As Grand Master District Grand Lodge, G.U.O.O.F 13th Biennial, 37th Session, Held at Buffalo Marked By Presentation of Gold Key To City To Grand Master Edwards By Mayor Buffalo, N. Y.—At the 13th biennial and 37th session of the District Grand Lodge, No. 2, G. U. D. O. F., jurisdiction of New York, held here beginning August 6, Harry J. Edwards of New York City was reelected for the fifth consecutive time as district grand master by a vote of 27 to 19, his opponent being Col. J. B. Thorne. The opening session, at noon on Tuesday, in the Lincoln Memorial Church, the Rev. Mr. Horner, pastor, with Francis C. Knight, P. W. O. M., master of ceremonies, was marked by a number of welcomes extended the visiting Odd Fellows by speakers representing various groups in the city. Edwards Given Key To City. The happening of greatest interest was when City Councilman John S. McGovern, representing Mauviel Maguire and citizens of Buffalo, presented to District Grand Master Edwards the key to the city. The key, of large size, heavily plated with 24-carat gold, had embedded in its handle a gold medal on which was stamped the words, "Key to the City of Buffalo." A tiny thermometer was affixed along the handle, at the end of which is a small ring, by which the key can be suspended from a hook. The key was encased in a handsome; plustidined case. It is presented only to high potentates and distinguished visitors. It was accepted on behalf of the district grand master by James P. Needham of Philadelphia, national grand secretary, member of the Sub-Committee of Management, who was a guest of the state body. Other welcome addresses were by Mr. Reese, P. G. M., on behalf of the lodges; H. H. Starks, editor. Progressive Herald: Rev. Horner for the church; the Grand Household of Ruth was welcomed by Mrs. Molly Simpson, for the local households. Responses were made by the district grand treasurer, Handy Mosely and Willard Smith grand director. The Annual Address. The transfer of gavels was made for the Grand Household to D. M. N. G. Poole by Mrs. Cohen, and to District Grand Master Edwards by P. N. T. Wright. The annual address delivered by Grand Master Edwards to taunt assemblage of the grand lodge and grand household was an interesting resume of the work accomplished during the past year. He recalled that twenty years ago, as a delegate to the grand lodge at Rochester, he had made the motion which resulted in the two bodies holding their annual sessions at the same time and place. He then emphasized the pleasure experienced in having further opportunity to cooperate with the women in carrying forward work of the order. Referring to the proclamation issued January, 1928, for a drive for new members, he called attention to the fact that it is not yet too late to put forth an effort toward bringing into the order men and women of character and worth for the building up of the organizations. He commended the lodges particularly because of the fact that no charges or appeals are pending and that the committee had nothing to do. Propositions Adopted. The grand master urged particularly the adoption of a proposition emanating from Paul Laurence Dumbar Lodge, No. 10217, that the special assessment of 15 cents per member, levied at the last session, he continued in force until 1931, declaring it to be a necessary enabling the executive committee to visit lodges in the jurisdiction that had never looked upon a D. G. M., or executive board member. (The proposition was adopted. He paid a tribute to the members of the order who have died during the past year, and who were memorialized in the annual service. Among the more prominent who have died, he mentioned Rev. I C Désverney, D. G. M.; Henry (C Wadkins, D. D. G. M.; Joseph P. Smith, D. D. G. M.; Charles L. Lewis, P. G. M.; Joseph H. Shockey, P. G. M.; John W. Mill M. V. M.; auditor; Dr. William Johnson, P. N. F., and Prow. W. Johnson, M. V. P. In long he declared that while most of the lodges are in good condition, there is room for improvement, and urged a larger REELECTED 5th TERM HARRY J. EDWARDS development of the order. Another important legislation was that authorizing the grand master to name a Labor and Industrial Commission to serve without pay, whose duty it shall be to open avenues of employment to unemployed members of the order. The proposition came from L'Ouverture Lodge, No. 3790 Roster of Officers. Officers elected for the next biennial term, 1929-1931, in addition to Mr. Edwards, are Willard Smith, D. D. G. M., A M. Barrows, D. G. Secretary, Will Mosely, D. G. Treasurer, William Palmer, E. D. Director, Audor of E. Fleming, Harold Legall and James A. Gardonqal Appointed officers are J. F. A. Lashley, chaplain; Robert A. Taylor, warden: William Perry, guardian; A. E. Fleming, recorder HIGH RATING FOR NEGRO VETERANS' HOSPITAL, ALA Veterans' Bureau, Wash ington, Plans Further Expansion of Unit Tuskegee Institute, Ala.—The United States Veterans Hospital at Tuskegee now rates "not less than second" among the 51 hospitals which the government mounts for disabled veterans, according to statement of W. S. Burke, business manager of the Tuskegee hospital, who has recently returned from Washington, where he was in a six day conference with officers of the Veterans Bureau. A complete check-up of the management of the hospital was gone into and approved by the Veterans Bureau. Plans were formulated for the conduct of the institution for the next two years, Mr. Burke said, in an address delivered here before the teacher-students of the summer school. "The rating which the hospital has received as a unit in the best medical service in the country demonstrates the fitness of the Negro to conduct successfully a large scientific institution," he declared. Construction of a new 139-bed wing costing $240,000 is now under way. Others who addressed the summer school during the week included T. Williamson, head of the institute chemistry division, who spoke on the elements within us, Dr. Austin of the State Normal School at Muncie, Indiana, and members of the institute faculty, who reported on the meeting of the National Association of Teachers in Colored Schools in Jackson, Miss. Assemblyman Abraham Grenthal did not offer a bill to relieve rent oppression during the last session of State Assembly. When the Board of Aldermen of the County of New York passed its local bill affording relief from rapacious landlords, it was passed by a unanimous vote, which included the vote of Alderman Fred R. Moore of the 19th A. D. LAMAR PERKINS Lamar Perkins Seeks Designation For The Assembly, 21st A. D. Lamar Perkins Seeks Designation For The Assembly, 21st A. D. Pettitions are being circulated in the 21st Assembly District by the Harlem Registration League, Samuel F. Holman, president for the naming of Attorney Lamar Perkins of 136 West 139th street as a designate for nomination as Congressman in the 21st Congressional District of New York. The personnel of the committee selected to fill vacancies in accordance with provisions of election law is Walter E. Hardy, 304 West 138th street; Thomas C. Tabb, 504 Lenox avenue; James P. Fill, 1111 West 138th street; Anne L. Sighther, 14 St. Nicholas avenue, and Thomas J. Astine, 4 Bradhurst avenue. Mr. Perkins is thirty-three years or age, was born in Savannah, Ga., and obtained his early education in that city. He graduated from Lancolm University and Harvard Law School. He is a member of the Law Department of the Eiks, the Intercollegiate Club and the Manhattan Republican Club of the 21st Assembly District. He is an active member of the Myssianian Baptist Church and was at one time president of the Lyceum of that church. For the past five years he has practiced law in the City of New York and has a fine record as an able attorney. Sparkill Family Suffers Double Loss Sparkill, N. Y. -The family of William Spencer of this town suffered a double loss last week On Tuesday, August 10, Mr. and Mrs Spencer lost their infant child and then the next day Mr. Spencer had his left arm severed at the elbow while at work at the paper mill He was taken to the Nyack Hospital and is now resting quietly. Replying to the application for an injunction brought by Mrs E. Hortense Warner against Robert S Conklin, Charles W B Mitchell and others of the 21st Assembly District to prevent the division of this district along racial lines, Mr. Conklin admitted that he had no power to divide the district, "that that power can only be exercised by a newly elected County Committee." Secretary Heum of the Manhattan Republican Club made affidavit that the supposed selection of Charles W B Mitchell as co-leader of the district "was nothing more than a mere selection of persons to hold office in the future of the Republican County Committee at its meeting in September 1029, ratifies the proposal that the 21st Assembly District be divided in two parts; Mr Conklin is the sole executive member of the entire Twenty-first Assembly District and Mrs Margaret A Seals is the sole associate executive member and they are performing the duties that go with those offices." Despite the above affidavits residents of the district say Mr. Mitchell is already unminguing as leaders by removing and appointing new captains, etc. He has also opened a new clubhouse for the eastern end of the district in West Both street west of Eighth avenue. Moore Tells Of Grenthal's Attempt To Form Alliance In 19th District Moore Tells Of Grenthal's Attempt To Form Alliance In 19th District An interesting phase of the political fight being waged within the ranks of the Republican Party in the New York 19th Assembly and Aldermanic districts is the inside story of the unsuccessful efforts of Abraham Grenthal, present Assemblyman and leader of the 19th A. D., to form an alliance with Alderman Fred R. Moore. "In July I was invited into a conference with Abraham Grenthal, and as a matter of courtesy called at his office," relates Alderman Moore. "When I got there George W. Harris was waiting to see him, Grenthal thought we came together and I told him that was impossible. "I was asked to go into Grenthal's private office and Harris was told that he would be seen later. Grenthal told me at the time that Harris was down trying to get some political advertising. As a matter of fact Harris had called at his request to talk about the aldermanic nomination. "During our conference the following dialogue took place for us without being consulted. Grenthal would have gladly favoried my designation for Alderman had I agreed to carry him on my back. But the load was too heavy. There is just as much unrest among white people friendly to the colored people to get rid of Grenthal as there is among colored people." WORKERS ENGAGE IN ACTIVITY FOR RACE LEADERSHIP Wanted Prestige and Money. Grenthal "Fred, I want to go back to the Assembly this year. You know I am on the Committee on Rules and I get prestige through the committee and make money which helps my business. I also want to be leader of the district, for that, too, gives me prestige and helps me in my business." Moore: "We have sent you to the Legislature for five terms. I told you last fall at the conference with Mr. Koenig at his office in County Committee headquarters that we would agree to support you and end the light at the time, but that the principles represented by me in favor of elective representation for my group would be resumed next year. You should recognize our claims and retrain from further ambitions." Grenthal "It is dangerous for you to make a race issue of this." Moore: "Then, that is the way you put it. I have no hesitation in making such an issue, for I believe in racial recognition and representation." Adlerman Moore says he then asked Assemblyman Grenthal "Why don't you call together your County, Committee lay your cards on the table and say to them Gentlemen, I would like to go back to Albany for another term to accomplish some of the things I have on my mind. If you will send me back for another term I promise you I will not again be a candidate. I told him maybe the County Committee would consent to giving him another chance." No Convention Necessary. "Grenthal told me if I would agree to support him there would be no need of calling a County Committee convention, for we could put over the program by just having the County Committee meet and designate both of us—him for the Assembly and me for the Alderman Board." Assemblyman Grenthal is further quoted as saying to Alderman Moore: "Next year there will be a gubernatorial election. Tuttle and McGinnis will be candidates for the Republican nomination McGinnis is mighty strong up State. There is no doubt that we will elect the whole ticket. In that event a bill will be passed in the Legislature creating a new Municipal Court and I will be the Judge. If I am an 'ex' I would have no chance I therefore, not only want to go back to Albany but want to be leader." "After a second conference, relates Adlerman Moore "which embraced practically the same overrides from Mr. Grenthal I adopted to him take my suggestions under consideration; that I was opposed to his leadership, and in favor of Col. Fullmore I further believed we were entitled to one of our own for the Assembly, that if I accepted his proposition the people angong whom I lived and whose respect I enjoyed would look upon me as a hypocrite." Slurs The Negro. "It is a known fact that Mr. Grenthal has not lived in the 19th A. D. for years, but at 214 West 91st street. His record shows that his interest in the colored people of the district is to satisfy his ambitions at our expense. When he and his friends get together I am told they talk about us in uncomplimentary terms. "Syndey Lewis, one of Grenthal's chief advisers, told me that the Negro leadership for Negro leadership, that Negro did not want and did not believe in their own for leader, and preferred to follow the leadership of a white man especially the leadership of Abraham Grenthal. "Grenthal did not consult with his captains or members of the County Committee about designing George W Harris for alderman. As I told him, we objected to a white man picking a colored man for us without being consulted. Grenthial would have gladly favor- my designation, for Alderman had I agreed to carry him on my back. But the Joad was too liefy, "There is just as much unrest among white people friendly to the colored people to get rid of Grenthal as there is among colored people." WORKERS ENGAGE IN ACTIVITY FOR RACE LEADERSHIP 125 Men and Women In A Meeting Plan For The Coming Primaries WORKERS ENGAGE IN ACTIVITY FOR RACE LEADERSHIP 125 Men and Women In A Meeting Plan For The Coming Primaries At an enthusiastic meeting held Friday night, August 9, in the committee headquarters, 230 West 135th street, workers for majority leadership in the 19th A D had plans for the dethroning of Abraham Grenthal as Republican leader, and the defeat of Grenhal and George W Harris for nominations to the Assembly and Board of Aldermen respectively. 125 men and women were present, and the number took part in the speechmaking. Petitions for placing the names of Francis F Rivers and Alderman Fred R Moore before the voters of the 19th D in the Primaries on September 17 for nomination as Assemblyman and Alderman respectively, have been circulated and signed by enrolled voters of the district. In the meeting it was brought out that Assemblyman Grenhal, as leader, is supplanting all the leaders of election districts in the 19th who are opposing his continuance in power, and has manned new captains who are engaged in circulating his petitions. One of the speakers declared that this highhanded method of operation is contrary to the principles of fairplay and a departure from the Republican principle of fairness it was recalled that when Phelps Phelps was designated as nominee for Congress from the 17th New York District, Mrs Ruth Pratt opposed the oragnization in the Primary, won the nomination and later was elected to Congress, but no attempt was made to change or remove either district captains or inspectors. But Grenthal, it was said, did this last year and is doing it again this year. The consensus of opinion is that this will bring about his defeat, since it is practically saying to the colored and white voters who oppose him, that they have no rights in the Republican organization that is good and respect it. It said upon good authority that all those deposed are regular organization Republicans. On Sunday morning, at Mother A. M. E. Zion Church, Alderman Fred Moore addressed the congregation on the principle of majority leadership, and the movement to displace Grenthal and Harris Col. Chas W. Fillmore spoke at BeThel: A. M. E. Church both were given cordial receptions and the congregation gave unanimous endorsement to the movement. Bible Lost In France Returned To Owner Washington, D. C. — A Bible stolen from him in the University at Beaume at Dijon, France, during the World War ten years ago, was returned to Farmount R. White, formerly Athletic coach of the Newport News high school at Newport, Va., last week. The Bible, a gift of Mr White's mother, was sent, accompanied by a letter from Martha V Grisbyg of 310 West 118th, street, New York. The letter explained how it fell into her hands as follows "I take great pleasure in sending your Bible you lost in the 16th street subway station, 16th street of more an amored, colored or white, I am sure that you will be glad to get your Bible" She did not know that the Bible had been stolen from Mr White on the Western front ten years ago. In the Primaries on September 17, supporters of the movement to secure majority leadership in the 19th A.D. and to depose Assemblyman Abytha nemo to the Senate by referring the "Unthinking Negro," will vote for the following candidates: They will also designate as their choice for executive member, carrying with it the leadership: Col. CHAS. W. FILLMORE Say Hoover Will Name Walter L. Cohen As Liberian Minister Washington, D.C.—An interesting rumor is being circulated here to the effect that President Hoover is contentulating the naming of Walter L. Cohen, now collector at New Orleans, to be Minister to Liberia to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Minister W. T. Francis. This step is to be taken, according to the report, to give Mr. Cohen a promotion and at the time to pacify the lily white Republicans in Louisiana, led by Emile Buntz, who had been trying for some time to lessen Dr. Ken's power in that state. At the same time, it is said, the President wants to appease Kentucky Republicans who have asked that Dr. T. T. Wendell of Lexington, Ky. be given the Liberian post. In order to do this, the report has it that a new office will be created, that of Assistant Commissioner of Education, whose duties will be to further studies for the educationalancement of the Negro, and that Assistant Commissioner consisted of the naming of Dr. Wendell for this position, which, it is agreed, will offer a broad field of usefulness. There is no intimation as to whether or not Mr. Cohen will accept the foreign post.

Goes Into More Homes Direct Than Any Other Paper Published. The Race In All Sections Of The Country Is Watching Leadership Race In 19th Assembly District Letters Received Indicate Grave Dissatisfaction With Actions of Negro Leaders Who Are Helping Keep Grenthal In Power Some idea of the interest aroused in all sections of the country by the fight being made in the 19th Assembly District, New York City, for majority leadership in Republican ranks may be gleaned from letters received by Alderman Fred R. Moore and the men and women associated with him in the effort to secure proper recognition for the race. Hubert T. Delany Gives His Platform The following letter has been received by Alderman Fred R. Moore of the 19th A. D. editor of The New York Age, from Hubert T. Delany, Assistant United States Attorney, who has been designated by the Republican leaders of the 21st Congressional District as candidate for nomination to Congress. Mr. Delany is writing from his fornier home, Raleigh, N. C., where he has been spending his vacation with members of his family. His letter is as follows: Mr. Stewart Mr. Moore While I know that I have your good wishes personally in the matter of my recent designation, nevertheless feel that I should go to you in your representative position that I appreciate the honor conferred upon me in my designation as the regular Republican nominee of the Twenty-first Congressional District by the leaders of my party. As you probably know, I have not this designation or nomination. It comes to me like a bolt out of a clear sky. When I left New York City for my vacation, so far as I knew, my name had not been mentioned, nor had I anticipated that it would be. Since, therefore, the designation has taken place during my absence from the City, and without any effort on my part to secure it, it will be my purpose to conduct a strenuous campaign, and to bring to the attention of the Republican voters of the Twenty-first District the nobler principles of the Republican party as I see them that they may be contrasted with those of the Democratic party. There is doubt in my mind that whatever liberality the local Democrats may show, is completely submerged by the Southern Democracy when they reach the Halls of Congress. It is, therefore, incumbent upon the voters of the District to frankly recognize the fact that their will and command can only be carried out in the Halls of Congress when a fighting and progressive Republican is elected. It shall be my purpose, of course, to serve the interests of all of the people of the Twenty-first District, and I feel certain that in the comung election, with the aid of the press and my many loyal friends, they will not fail to register and vote and thereby lef pass a real opportunity for aggressive representation in Congress. I realize that the fight will be a difficult one, yet no man, nor has any grow of people ever gotten anything worthwhile without making a fight for it. With the aid of the press and many loyal friends who have urged me to carry on the fight, I see no reason to look forward to anything but victory in the forthcoming election, especially when I realize that the inate pride of the Eastern section of our District will not permit them to allow Chicago to do that which we could do with less effort if we will concentrate our forces and join in one concerted effort to elect a Congressman who will serve the interests of all of the people of the District. Sincerely yours. (Signed) HUBERT T. DELANY. For the convenience of its many patrons, a new telephone trunk line has been installed in The New York Age on its switchboard. - In the future the office may be reached by calling either Bradhurst 0864 or 5816. That race leaders in the 19th A.D. are being scrutinized by the people of the entire country is clearly evident from tone of the comments contained in these letters, and it is equally evident that the leaders' attitudes and actions are being judged with a keen reaction to their race loyalty. From Greensboro, N. C., Prof. Chas H. Moore, long a prominent figure in the race's development, educationally, economically, politically, and in all things that make for determent, writes: "What is the matter with 'your people' up that way? There is an old adage that 'A white man is uncertain and a Negro never sure, and the recent conduct of the race group in your political, bailiff, seems to corroborate the adage." Cannot Blame White Man "Well, we cannot blame the white man, as we used to do, for all of our discriminations and lack of opportunities. The solution lies within and not without the race." Then from the other end of the country, the Rev. J. M. Boddie, located in the far Northwest, Minneapolis, Minn., who was formerly a resident of New York, expresses himself in the following harsh and biting language: "Negroes in the 19th A. D. are as venal as the Romans, who were denounced by the Negro King Jugertha. "YOUR DEFEAT IS NOT A DEFEAT. It only calls for harder work. There is a lack of developed race consciousness in the district. Don't give up, stay out of the courts, and fight for the principle. Harris is the Achan in the camp. Divide them up, then conquer them. Grenthal must fade away. "A friend of mine out here was defeated three times for Alderman. He never gave up, but stuck at it and is now an elected Alderman." Local Voters Are Indignant. On the other hand, local indignation is steadily growing, and voters in the 19th A. D. are expressing themselves in no uncertain words as to their intention to give firm and unqualified support to the movement to secure for the race its entitled recognition. At the same time they are pledging support in the Primaries on September 17 to overturn the plan's Grenhal and his henchmen by voting for the managing Franck E. as the Republican nominee for the State Assembly and for Alderman Freed R. Moore for reelection as Alderman. One such letter is that written by Hilton A. Phillips of 2179 Fifth avenue, under date of August 12, as follows: Too Much Backbone. "One read with great disappointment that the Republican Committee refused to renoninate you for the aldermanic post which you serve so faithfully and well. Negroes in this part of your district are extremely insulted by such a dictatorial decision, and will support: you if you run again, for it is well known that you have too much backbone to be 'nose-ringed' like the bribe-taking, boot-licking opportunists, whose 'quackified' leadership has made colored Harlem the football of such men as Abraham Grenthal and Robert Conklin. The free Negro in Harlem certainly does not want them as leaders politically or otherwise. "Such a 'rude' impression that they and their 'jellyfish men-Fridays' is now dealing out to colored Harlem is debauching to the Negro whose mind is not mentally by bribes or limited by a graft-laden dollar. "You may be sure, my dear sir, that if you run again for the seat which you so admirably fill, that plenty of Negroes will go the limit in backing you against the stool pigeons, the bosses and other political undesirables, and bust up once and for all the 'nasty alien' control of nearly 300,000 Negroes in this city. Youra for a successful campaign."

Porters Ask Pastors To Devote Labor Day Sermons To Their Union The Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters has made an appeal to the white and colored churches of America to relate their Labor Day Sunday messages to the struggles of the Pullman porters for the right to organize, a living wage, and better working conditions. According to A. Philip Randolph president and general organizer, the American Church has been urged by the Federal Council of Churches of Christ, the National Welfare Catholic Council, and the Central American Rabbi Association to stress the great need of cooperative effort, the sacredness of human life, the power of unselfish action, the social stewardship of property, the subordination of the shift motions of the service which embraces the principles for which the porters' Union is fighting. "The Negro Church, representing the working class population," says the Porters' chief, "can serve the race nobly in championing the cause of labor, and yet remain true to its traditions, since Jesus Christ was a carpenter, and all His disciples workmen." Ashley L. Totten To Speak To Brotherhood Sleeping Car Porters Ashley L. Totten To Speak To Brotherhood Sleeping Car Porters Ashley L. Totten, assistant general organizer. Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, will give a series of public lectures at the headquarters of the Brotherhood every night this week, on conditions in the Kansas City district now under his supervision. Mr. Totten was brutally assaulted some weeks ago by thugs. At the trial, Police Captain Louis Seiglfrid, an ex-Pullman employee, was named in the conspiracy, which resulted in the conviction of Eddie Thomas. The trial of Ellis Burton, said to be the "King of the Underworld," and also charged with assault and attempt to kill, will be held on September 9. Totten will return to Kansas City in time for the trial. In the meantime it is probable that Mr. Totten will visit and speak in other cities in the East.

W. Rem had stirred a hornet's nest by asserting that the time had not come for a Negro to be leader in the 21st Assembly District. It was stated that exceptions were taken to the remark by Dr. Charles H. Roberts, former Alderman from the 19th A. D.; Charles Mitchell, Hamilton Travis and James Andrews, Dr. Roberts was questioned that "In the 21st Assembly District scores of colored men and women can be found who are Assemblyman Remer's superior in intellect, and who possess other requisites of leadership." Denies Making Statement. Under date of August 8, Assemblyman Remer writes The Age disclaiming having made "any such statement or remark." Continuing, Mr. Remer writes: "Everybody knows that the great advancement the colored. people have made and are making in this country is due to themselves, and through their own leaders, as their history demonstrates, and as we see it going on before us today. May I add, however, that in this country no race can exist happily 'for itself alone', but only on a basis of friendly and mutual understanding with other races. "And, in my opinion, whatever conduces to such friendly and mutual understanding between the races aids in such advancement and is good for everybody. whatever interferes with or discourages such friendly and mutual understanding is bad for everybody—and 'race' or 'color' questions, when dragged into politics, are unquestionably in the latter class."

Faulkner, a native of who went to Liberia thirty-five ye engineer, and who was mayor of Mo war, is now in the United States paints the picture of the failure o public to attain the development founders because of an unlimited maintained through a system of that country by the present admin T.J.R. Faulkner, Former Mayor Of Monrovia, Liberia, Says Country Is Under An Unlimited Autocracy Charges Pres. King's Administration With Enforcing Virtual Slavery In Back Country; Controls Civic and Judicial Branches T. J. R. Faulkner, a native of North Carolina, who went to Liberia thirty-five years ago as an engineer, and who was mayor of Monrovia during the war, is now in the United States on a visit, and he paints the picture of the failure of the African Republic to attain the development planned by its founders because of an unlimited autocracy being maintained through a system of forced slavery in that country by the present administration. THE MAYOR tives to, the nearby Spanish island of Fernando Po, drafting workers from the tribes of the interior. The premium of the $50 per native, paid by the Spanish planters to the Government officials concerned in making the shipments, is divided among them. Mr. Punkker says, "We must interest the planters to treat these laborers well, there is no question of obtaining their consent before shipping them. Since the United States took over the Liberian debt outstanding to France and England, this country has maintained a number of officials to look in on the conduct of Liberia's financial affairs. These five officials draw about $50,000 from Liberia's annual revenues of less than $1,000,000. This circumstance compiled with the fact that President King has raised his own salary to $15,000 and that of his ten Senators and twenty-one Representatives to $2,000, partially accounts for the fact that the country is making no extraordinary financial progress. Mr. Faplkner believes. Mr Paulkner is profoundly interested in the outcome of the present troubles. There is virtually no public education except that conducted by mission schools. To avoid the road gangs, the back-country natives have left the country and are land and civil unrest among the civilized citizens of the coast suggests that if the people are not soon permitted to rule by legitimate means, they will resort to direct action. The Firestone investments. Mr. Faulkner says, may add largely to the resources of the country. Mr. Firestone is not only developing the 1,400 acres cleared by a British company before the war, but has 90,000 additional acres in a condition to produce within two or three years. Before the whole lease of 1,000,000 acres is developed roads must be built which will not only bring a new income to people and the Government, but will make possible the communication between the coast towns and the rich natural resources of the interior. This communication could be most beneficial for both parties, as virtually the whole civilized population is concentrated on the coast, while the productive lands are all in the interior. Owns Only Ice Plant Mr Paulkner is by no means the ordinary type of embittered patrol- ot. He was born in North Carlo- lina and educated there and at Cooper Union in New York. He went to Liberia as an engineer and has served the country in various capacities, as an engineer and a citizen. He was wartime Mayor of Monrovia, the capital and most important city of the country, which has a population of 5,000 to 6,000. He brought in the first PRINTED STATIONERY $1.00 PER BOX Name, Address or Monogram 200 single sheets; 100 folded shoots with 100 envelopes. Monarch business for schools, clubs and lodges, $1.25. MAPLE LEAP PRESS 14 Hamilton Street, Port Jervis, N. Y. Mr. Faulkner was a candidate in opposition to President Charles D. B. King who is now serving his third 4-year term. Mr. Faulkner says that there are about 10,000 property holders entitled to vote in Liberia and that he received 9,000 votes. But King's vote, according to the tabulation, totalled 235,000. When the courts were called upon to Mr. Faulkner, the courts ruled so jurisdiction. In 1919, Mr Paulknaker points out that King had no opposition and polled 490 votes. With an oppon- tion, Hamilton, in 1923, King re- ceived 10,000 votes as against 700 for Harmon, and this vote, in 1927, reached 244,000. His charge, that Pres. King has built up a machine that has absolute control over the civil and judicial branches with judges being ap- pointed by the President and re- PAINTS DARK PICTURE of Political Affairs in Liberia FORT G. FALLKNER moved at his pleasure Mr Faulther unconditionally corroborates the charges in Raymond Leslie's Buell's book, "The Native Problem in Africa" that the Liberian Government enforces a system of virtual slavery upon natives from the back country, impressed to work on the roads. Not only are these workers not paid, but they are compelled to furnish their own tools and food, and rice and palm oil for the overseers who often treat them brutally. The Government has never consented to investigate charges that the natives were beaten, in some cases at烈, on these gangs, and one native Commissioner, attention to the Government's attention was preemptively off his duties. The laborers are subject to "fines" for various petts offences and are sometimes compelled to sell their food to pay these assessments. Poligamy In Interior. In addition the chiefs are oppressed by the "hut" tax. Poligamy is almost an economic necessity for the aborigines of the interior and the men set their families up in different establishments, to cultivate various plots of ground. A tax of S$1 is levied by the Government on each "hut." Transportation facilities are so bad that though the interior is rich agriculturally, and living costs along the coast approximate those of New York, of a small percentage of the people of the coast inhabitants are supplied from the interior, some being carried out on the head of natives As a consequence many of the back-country natives hardly see a dollar from one year's end to the next, and the chiefs, who are responsible for the hut taxes of their tribes are often fined or being imprisoned for being unable to raise the amount demanded by the Government.

M WILLOUGHBY, Proprietor Paints Glowing Picture of Liberia And Its Progress Under Pres. King, With Building of Schools and Roads R. R. Taylor of Tuskegee Institute, Returning From Africa, Tells of International Development—To Build New 'Tuskegee' London, England.—"If I were still a young man, with my way to make in the world, I should unhesitatingly go out to Africa" was the statement made to me by Dr. R. R. Taylor, Vice Principal of Tuskegee Institute, Alabama, the great Negro educational centre founded by Booker Washington. He has just arrived in London after a visit to Liberia and the Gold Coast. He received a special invitation from the President of Liberia to give the Negro republic the benefit of his experience and advice concerning the foundation of a Liberian "Tuskegee," for which a sum of $75,000 was recently left by the late Miss Olivia Phelps-Stokes, of the well-known American family whose members have supported so many schemes for Negro progress. "The International development of Liberia is proceeding fast," said Dr. Taylor. "There are larger appropriations for schools than ever before, and the late Mr. James L. Sibley, the American who is the educational advisor of the Government, whose tragic death has just occurred, had their complete confidence. These schemes, and the building of excellent roads, are now possible. President King explained to me, now that border problems and the hostility of the people of the hinterland are questions of the past. The activities of the 'Firestone' interests, who have already developed about 55,000 of the million acres assigned to them, have stimulated a number of the Liberian people to plant rubber also, and there is also agricultural development in other directions. A Liberian "Tuskegee." "There is great enthusiasm for the idea of a Liberian Tuskegee among all of the three sections of the community, the Americo-Liberians, the natives, and the Europeans. It was able thoroughly to recommend the preliminary choice of a site at Kakata, situated on the fine motor road which is being driven through the country, at a point about 40 miles from Monrovia, the capital. It is thus easily accessible, and is in the centre of a thickly populated district, while it is also at a spot where the territories of three tribes, the tasa, Fesse, and Colas meet. It is well watered and the soil is good and will do excellently for agricultural development and experiment. I have little doubt that the scheme will be approved by the advisory board in New York to which I am reporting." Visited Gold Coast. Dr. Taylor also paid a visit to the Gold Coast where he was entertained by Sir Ransford Slater the British Governor. He is very much impressed with the progress being made at the Prince of Wales' Government College, at Achimota. "Principal Fraser and his staff have gained the complete confidence of both the Africans and the Europeans," he said. "The period of suspicion has been outlived, and most of this is due to the influence of the late Dr. J. E. K. Aggrey, whose memory is revered throughout the community from the Governor to the smallest children. I was very much impressed too by the favorable attitude on the part of the Africans to the British administration, as well as the sympathetic attitude of the officials towards the Africans. I found there no word of bitterness or hostility. The Africans, too, all seem eager to learn, and the fact that they can own their own land gives them a self-respect which is most important." An architect by profession, Dr. R. R. Taylor has been asked to draw up the plans for the Liberia college buildings when he gets back to the United States, if his recommendations are accepted.

(2) Again we have occasion to quote from our religious contemporary, The Advance, which is published Saturday of each week in the interest of the Abyssinian Baptist Church. We do this because we believe that this publication correctly indicates the spirit that animates the colored voters of the Nineteenth Assembly district, at least the thinking portion of them, in their struggle to attain the full stature of American citizenship. In the issue for last week, The Advance carried as its leading editorial an article, headed prophetically, as we may presume, "Grenthal on His Political Deathbed." We reproduce it in full: When a man sees his impending doom; when his downfall is written in headlines across the sky; when every breeze that blows brings full tidings and every little movement than a meaning pregnant with blasting hopes he does just what Abraham Grenthal is doing. Alas for him! He has had his political day in the 19th. His grave is dug. His winding sheets have been made. The hearse is backed up ready to receive his expiring corpse. His requiem will be said in the Press. In his frank, courageous letter of July 25th, Alderman R. R. Moore administered the dose that paralyzed Grenthal's vitals, upset organic respiration, produced hectic flushes and assured the patient a sure but slow death. And the sheer nerve of the man! He did all he could to defeat Alderman Moore and elect white Democrat; he is secretly planning to if he were to die, to prevent the nomination of Moore to succeed himself and in the face of this scurvy treatment, he has the gall to ask for the Alderman's support both for leadership and the Assembly. Grenthal has forgot to remember that like a man, he is the owner of the hopes and aspirations of a group, he has forgot to remember that he has done all in his power to defeat those hopes and aspirations; he has forgot to remember that he has made tools of a 'new' satellite in order to further his own schemes* and to prolong his power; he has forgot to remember that the office he has held is man and as leader of the district is, with virtue, the right of nuggets, the property of Negroes. Well, we are going to ruthlessly remit him of these facts on Primary Day. We are going to bury him and on his political grave we are going to stand Colonel Harper in the Negro voters list determination and unity of the Negro voters of the 19th Assembly District. That the political cunning and shrewd trading ability of the present leader of the Nineteenth are not underrated by his political opponents is indicated by the picture drawn of him as a colossus. standing in the way of the hopes and aspirations of the group of Negro voters. This may be giving Mr. Grenthal a greater stature than his individual importance would merit, but it is to be borne in mind that he has the support of the County chairman and the local Republican machine, which for some occult reason seems determined to keep him in power as a leader and also as a member of the Assembly Committee on Rules. So while Grenthal may not actually prove colossus, he is no mean obstacle to overcome. At all events it is better to overrate the power of an adversary than to underrate his strength and meet defeat because of rash over-confidence. But Mr. Grenthal, like all other politicians of his calibre, has a vulnerable spot, which can be reached and penetrated at the primaries. As the militant editor of The Advance reminds his readers, Primary Day is the time to decide the question of leadership for the Nineteenth district. The voters of the district have it in their power to bring about a new deal by exercising their rights as enrolled Republicans and voting for the men of their choice for leaders and candidates for office. No political colossus, however brazen in its arrogance, can withstand the assaults of an aroused public sentiment that demands political representation. The spirit of revolt against political leading strings, voiced by the editor of The Advance, is the spirit that wins, if overwhelmingly expressed in the primaries. AN. INCONSISTENT CANDIDATE. George W. Harris accepted the designation of the Republican machine as the candidate for Alderman in the Nineteenth district and in return proved himself in favor of the continuance of the leadership of Assemblyman Grenthal and the latter's renomination for the Assembly. This is a bit of political trading, in which, of course Mr. Harris has nothing to lose and Mr. 'Grenthal hopes to win a few votes and perhaps pull his chestnuts out of the fire. But what makes the deal so palpable, is the fact that but a week before the deal was entered into, Mr. Harris in the weekly paper which he edits, was loudly vociferating that "We Want an Assemblyman." Under this heading he said editorially: We call the attention of all the leaders of Harlem to the necessity of electing at least one colored Assemblyman to the State legislature this year. It is a grave reflection upon the courage and common sense of this great group which dominates in numbers—three Assembly districts—that it does not go forward to this end. During the brief period at Albany the group went forward and was well represented in the highest lawmaking body of the Empire State. Despite the capricious criticism of those who said they were partial and racially partisan in their activities, their records were a credit to their districts and their people. The inducted people in this state cannot be sympathetically nor properly protected unless a manly and able colorled legislator sits and cooperates in Albany. If the intense activity and the high-geared political machines now being set in motion all over Harlem do not concentrate and consolidate upon this community, the purpose. Indeed their combined efforts in such an event may be worse than useless. Left alone the colored voters of the community would naturally see to that they get Assemblymen, Aldermen and progressive leadership. If the Republican Party hopes to hold elected one in office in this state, not only on "no" but only on a colored Congressman is sent to Washington, but that a colored Assemblyman is sent to Albany. We want an Assemblyman. While the people of the Nineteenth may still want that Assemblyman, Mr. Harris wanted the chance to regain a seat in the Board of Aldermen more badly than that. So he threw consistency to the winds and deserted the cause that he had so blatantly espoused less than a week after his initial announcement. Mr. Harris' candidacy evidently is not going to be hampered by restrictions of consistency, so we must leave his course to the judgment of those voters who expect a man to mean what he says, and to remain constant to a conviction longer than one week. CANDIDACY BY DEFAULT. The withdrawal of former Mayor Hylan from the field as an independent candidate after the failure of the Republicans to indorse his candidacy, has put a somewhat different complexion upon the municipal campaign. In withdrawing, Mr. Hylan somewhat inconsistently expressed his hopes for the success of the Democratic ticket, which he was prepared to oppose with Republican help, if it had been extended. This leaves the ticket headed by Representative La Guardia to bear the brunt of the opposition to the present administration, although there are two or three other tickets in the field, the Socialist, headed by Norman Thomas, being the most conspicuous. This narrowing of the field to the tickets named by the two greater parties, brings out more clearly the fact that the designation of Mr. LaGuardia by the unofficial convention was a nomination by default, none of the Republican leaders being favorable to his candidacy, although lacking the courage to oppose it, in default of a stronger candidate who would consent to run. The only person who came out of the convention creditably was Mr. LaGuardia, who wanted the nomination and was willing to go into the primaries and submit his candidacy to the judgment of the voters. None of his opponents had the courage to meet his challenge, and despite their reluctance to accept him as a candidate, they gave him what he wanted. The question now arises as to what measure of support these reluctant leaders are going to give the candidate that gained a nomination by default. The indisposition of the Republican leaders to accept LaGuardia as a candidate is attributed to the fact that he has maintained a large degree of independence from party dictation. He has been able to carry his district for a seat in Congress, regardless of whether he had the party indorsement or not, and he fought under the banners of the Progressives and the Socialists. Naturally this has not endeared him to the conservatives and reactionists who live strictly by machine rule. The sulky acceptance of a candidate of this stripe indicates the decline of Republicanism in New York City and the incapacity of the present breed of leadership to accomplish results. It emphasizes the need for a reorganization of the party along new lines, so as to build up a virile quality of Republicanism which can appeal to the masses of the voters and prove more than a weak minority organization, playing second fiddle to Tammany Hall. While the designation for the mayoralty was in the nature of a personal triumph for Representative LaGuardia, the manner of its concession gave small promise of success at the polls. Personally Mr. LaGuardia de- THE NEW YORK AGE serves the strongest support that Republicans can give him. But the signs are not promising that he will get that measure of support from the weak and broken machine that allowed him to take the nomination by default. La Guardia's record as a fearless fighter and a spurner of traditional handicaps may appeal to the voters, and ensure larger support than now seems likely. His associates on the ticket for Comptroller and President of the Board of Addermen, are able and competent. Bird S. Coler, an independent Democrat, as a former Comptroller and Commissioner of Public Welfare, is well and favorably known among voters of all classes. Nevertheless a candidacy by default is not a favorable augury for a municipal campaign. It smacks too much of the petty politics played by the present Republican leaders, who try to dictate to the voters of Harlem districts what shall be and who shall be, and neglect the greater issues that concern the city government. EXTREMES OF ENFORCEMENT. The extremes between which the enforcement of prohibition waivers, from the harshness of puritanic severity to the irritating mildness of an almost patient fondness, were strikingly illustrated two examples found in the news of la Sunday. The first item from Bay City, Mich., told how one Henry B. Lair, age forty-one years, who confessed to the crime of selling and possessing liquor was condemned by a Federal judge to serve five years in the Federal prison Leavenworth, Kan., and to pay a fine ten thousand dollars. This drastic sentence was imposed under the terms of the Jones law for violation of the Eighteenth amendment, the prisoner having been convicted before a similar offence. The establishment where the liquor was sold was maintained by three brothers named Lair, who also face charges of assaulting the officer who raided the place. It is said to be the first time that such a severe sentence has been imposed upon a prohibition violation in Michigan, and so far as is known the second time that the maximum penalty has been imposed in the whole country. In contrast to this summary procedure was an interview reported with the Commissioner of Prohibition at Washington in which it was asserted that an order of last week to local administrators does not confer any permission to make wine as wine by that name was outlawed by the Volstead act. But it would appear that if home made wine is called fruit juice, it may be made from grapes and other fruits and the prohibition authorities cannot touch it. This juice does not have to contain less than one half of one per cent of alcohol to be with in the law, either. The juice may be squeezed and nature allowed to do the rest, so long as the maker keeps it for its own use. Unless sale is made from a residence it was held that a prohibition officer had to right to enter the premises. In case of a sale the agent can procure a judicial search warrant and proceed to enter agents are going to be kept out of the homes of the people, if the present commissioner has anything to say about it if an individual wants to hire an expert to go to his home and make "fruit juice from grapes or other fruits, the prohibition authorities are not going to butt in but the product must not be called wine because the law is strictly against wine making. Whipping the devil around the stump has not gone out of fashion.'

Whipping the devil around the stump has not gone out of fashion: CORRUPTION OF GAMBLING. An example of how the craze for gambling spreads corruption and bribery into various avenues of life, was shown by the exposure last week of a plot to falsify the clearing house balances, so that farlem numbers players might make killing." An attempt was made to tribe some eight messenger boys, who ask it was to go to the Clearing House to retrieve the source of the delilah. An example of how the craze for gambling spreads corruption and bribery into various avenues of life, was shown by the exposure last week of a plot to falsify the clearing house balances, so that Harlem numbers players might make a "killing." An attempt was made to bribe some eight messenger boys, whose task it was to go to the Clearing House and report the figures of the daily balances to afternoon papers and the various news services. As soon as the papers come out with these figures, the winners are determined among those who have played the numbers game. The object of changing these numbers so that the winning figures might be determined in advance, was to enable a certain group of gamblers to beat the game by playing the numbers arranged to be given to the papers. The effort at bribery seems to have been successful, so far as most of the boys were concerned, but one balked at the attempt and gave the game away. The incorruptible messenger was Harold Harris, thirteen years old, who is employed by the Wall Street office of the Associated Press. When Harold was offered fifty dollars to transmit the faked figures to his employers, he was told all the other boys were "fixed." When he failed to snap at the bait, the next day the offer was raised to seventy-five dollars. He then told the office manager, who communicated with the police. When the two bribers came to renew their offer, they were arrested by the detectives in waiting. The prisoners said that they had been employed by a Negro who operates a numbers game in Harlem. Of course it is not incredible that one boy out of eight was sharp enough and sensible enough to resist a bribe and to help lay a trap for the bribers, but how about the seven other messengers who were said to be "fixed." Is common sense and honesty among fifteen dollar a week messengers at so low a ratio, that only one out of eight THE AGE READER'S FORUM THE AGE READER'S FORUM LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Communications addressed to the Editor will be printed in this column, if they bear the name and address of the writer.

Industrial Transition And Effect Upon Negro The National Urban League has been making a valuable contribution to the discussion of industrial trends and the implication as they concern the living standards of African Americans, the director, Jesse O. Thomas, who has spoken to hundreds of Negro educators in the several summer schools for the past month. Beginning with the State Normal in Montgomery, Ala., he has been visiting the College Institute, State College in Orangeburg, S. C., Florida A and M College at Tallahassee, Bethune-Cookman Junior College, Daytona Beach, Fla., and Edward Waters College at Jacksonville, and Morehouse-Spelman Summer School in Atlanta. The extent to which the South is rapidly changing from a purely agricultural community to a semi-industrial community was emphasized. The effect these changes are having on the South's agricultural was pointed out. The speaker said in part, "As far back as 1925 the South had approximately sixty per cent of the cotton manufacturing establishments of the whole country employed nearly 100,000 cotton operators, and produced fifty-eight percent of the country's cotton goods output. 1,634,248 wage earners were employed in the manufacturing industries of the South. A total payrole of $1,553,324,000 was registered in the cotton power. These manufacturing concerns had an annual production output valued at $3,773,185,000. The wages of these employees are relatively higher and their buying power far greater than that of manpower and farm workers. The number of employees in these factories has increased to more than two and one half millions at the present time." The South is the only section The Week of ASTROLOGICAL BY THE The Week of August 17 ASTROLOGICALLY CONSIDERED BY THEARCHER The week will see a considerable improvement in financial affairs, for Mars is past the adverse aspect to Saturn.

Some of the attractions offered the captains of industry to move southward were cheap labor, cheap hydroelectric power, the nearness to the source of production, long working hours, the amenities to utilize child labor. This situation will be intensified as a result of the fact that other types of industries will find it necessary, because of sharp competition, to migrate southward. Up to the time the movement has been characterized by the textile industries. The cost of living and land values in towns and communities near these mill villages have increased. The Negro has not participated in any considerable extent in the increase in employment opportunities, he confined to unskilled jobs as porters, janitors, etc. He, therefore, finds himself in a community where cost of living has increased without having shared in the rise in the buying power as other factors that the laborer is attracted to the mill villages, it would seem logical that the Negro would seriously consider a back-to-the-farm movement while the land is cheaper than it has been in the past. The cost of strikes and labor discords among the textile workers, the stockholders may eventually become interested in production than complexion. The limit of avail, ultimately be reached with the combination coming of industries to the South. Both of these conditions may give the Negro his first opportunity to be considered by industry in a large way.

The readers who would like to know how to avoid some of these COMMENTS BY THE AGE EDITORS ON THE SAYINGS OF OTHER EDITORS Pointing to the "Rising Tide of Unemployment," the Palmata Leader of Columbia sounded the following alarm: More and more must the Negro give attention to the methods by which he is to earn his livelihood. Heretofore, the greatest stress of exertion is when you must meet your God, as the ministers so volubly express it. We sometimes wonder if the whole philosophy of the Negro's life hasn't been pitched in the wrong key. The end of all efforts seems to be intentionally delayed, but never the Negro begins, and that right early—to give some attention to the art of living, he will meet death a little earlier than he should. The bread and butter question is the greatest question with which men must deal, and the feelings said by those who have the where-with-all to guarantee their comfortable existence. Machines are taking the place of men in many of the important industries. Men are being thrown out of work faster than other places are being opened up, and this is particularly true of common laborers. A major incentive in this kind of labor, he is the greatest sufferer. This is true too because most all the jobs are provided by the whites and their common laborers being also displaced by machines, the ordinary jobs that are opened are given to them by their own in preference to the Negro. Of course, one can blame them for this. That is, the natural thing, it, therefore becomes more important that the thoughtful Negro of means turn his attention to those things whereby places can be provided for his own. It was suggested that the fraternal orders and the churches could well give attention to this matter by encouraging cooperative business and industries, instead of sinking their funds in stately office buildings. According to the St. Louis American, that western metropolis is in need of an official welcomer. Under the editorial headline, "The Mayor Didn't Get There," it said. The custom of extending an invitation to the Mayor of a City in which a convention or assembly of citizens, like the Grand Lodge of Knights of Pythias in St. Louis this past week, seems to have grown into a rusty habit with a good good use. For some reason Mayor Gilbert invited, later urged and notified, failed to attend the opening public session in person or by proxy or with formal excuse. Aside from this apparent slight by the Mayor, who not very long ago was ready to meet and speak before any group of colored voters, he no longer has the necessity of having the mayor of a large city like St. Louis on program. There are so many conventions and meetings in a city like this until it would require a man who did little else than welcome them. It is an unnecessary tax on the city's chief executive. And cannot do the job of welcoming anyhow? It would certainly be better than the embarrassing wait or the sterotype welcome as usually given by mayors and their proxies. What St. Louis needs is an official of the Grover Whalen type, who could extend official greetings with urbanity and elegance, though Mayor Walker himself could not be surpassed in the felicity of his welcome on such occasions. Asserting that the Barbers Protective Association of Virginia, composed of colored journeynerm barbers, in opposing the barbers licensing bill, are fighting for their economic existence, the Norfolk Journal and Guide said: A study of the provisions of the bill disclosures that it is patently an organized labor measure, so drafted as to effectively limit the oppo- ration of colored person to follow the trade law because be- sides drafted to accomplish that purpose. While the provisions that call for the establishment of an examining and licensing board, and those that relate to personal health lend it an additional protection, the which would regulate entrance into the trade would in fact prove positively discriminatory against Negroes, and are basically similar to the provisions employed by organized labor to bar barbers from many skilled trades. In fact, provisions relating to apprenticeships and registration of barbers are so obviously in line with organized labor's closed-door methods that it is amazing that any organi- zation would abve the ternity to ask the State to sanction them by law. For instance, under the proposed barbers licensing law a certificate of registration as a registered barber would be issued only to persons having practiced as a registered apprentice by the board of barbers who would successfully pass an examination under the board of examiners. A certificate of registration as a registered apprentice would be issued only to persons having graduated from a school. Schools approved by the board of barbersing would be prohibited from accepting applicants having less than an eighth grade or equivalent education. These are the features of worries, and to know how to get ahead, should write to Thearcher barbersing in the New York Age. 230 West 13th Street, new york city. The birthdate, month, year and place must be given correctly. If the hour of birth is not known the time of laying or morning of evening and the date of the month, should be written at the top of the letter, and the stamped and self-addressed envelope should accompany the birth data. All communications are confidential. the bill which though appearing nominally, "imperial are in effect positively discriminatory. The Norfolk paper insists that the bill should not pass as drafted, because it is drawn specially in the interest of white labor to eliminate Negro competition. Another fraternal order of the race appears to have fallen into grave difficulties, if the editor of the Texas Freeman of Houston is correct, in his statements, from which we quote as follows: In reporting the 'unfortunate plight of the United Brothers of Friendship and Sisters of the Mysterious Ten of Texas, as the Texas Freeman and Sister of the least elite, who give the least thought, this paper owes no apology to anybody. In doing so, however, Editor Love, its owner, editor and publisher, wants the members of the order and the public at large to understand the connection is justly due and is made freely for the benefit of all whom it may concern. As a member of the order for 34 years, or since March 1895, when he was initiated and, received into the Order, he knows enough about the personnel of the higher officials of the Grund Lodge to justify the stand he has taken in the present crisis. Getting down now to brass tasks the Freeman proclaims: Brothers and Sisters, who have untenately, has fallen upon evil days and it remains to be seen whether circumstances will alter cases. The Holy Bible says somewhere "A house divided against itself can not stand," and it says somewhere else "Be sure your sins will find you now. Now, members, as a general proposition, do you believe either, or both of these sayings? If you do, do you think there ought to be a house-cleaning, or shall we continue in the old cut, or kneel we do, that in one respect our leadership is corrupt, rotten and vicious, and, under all of the circumstances, there ought to be a new deal? The Freeman calls for a complete change in the heads of the order and the placing of the women members on an equal footing with the men. Directing attention to the working of the Morrow law in Kentucky, which imposes the death penalty for assaults upon women, the Louisville Leader said: No attack upon women has been more brutal than that of the assault upon the young school teacher by three white men near Monticello last Monday, and the case gives us chance to see if he has legally been a State legislature through bill sponsored by Governor Morrow, making the offense a capital one, and giving the people of the county where the crime was committed the authority to do the hanging, to be enforced upon Negroes only. But he remanded the legislation for an alleged assault upon a white woman which many doubled. The same is true of Bard and Fleming at Madisonville, Merchant, the white man, who brutally assaulted an eleven-year-old colored girl, was declared insane by a jury of three men in which we have had in court that turned the white people around Monticello into a furious mob. A young white girl has been beaten and assaulted by three men of her race. It goes without saying that the crime merits for these men the punishment, whether this penalty is enforced only when it is alleged that a white woman has been assaulted by a Negro. If there is any virtue in imposing death as a penalty for atrocous crimes, this, would seem to be a case that would justify it, regardless of the color of the criminals. But mawkish sentiment may defy the law, when it comes to executing white criminals of this kind. The Washington Tribune, with the injunction of "Help Those Who Help You," printed out a practical application of its headline, as follows: The Sunlight Laundry is offering employment and soliciting laundry dork. Every, cofeded person in Washington should line up behind this fine proposition to give work to our people. Our people are actually walking the streets looking for employment of all kinds. They are begging-for jobs, while we are giving employment to other people. There is no reason why that big plant building should not have so much work to do that she could employ a hundred or more capable people. Remember that is the only laundry we have and we certainly do not get a chance to work any of the others, even those branches in Nero neighborhoods. We Negras give all our work where we can get only mental employment. We can get jobs to stand at an ironing board, but we are not given positions to sit at desk. Sunlight Laundry is the only place where you give you a chance to do anything from make up the fire to keeping the books. Our race is looking for work and at the same time it is giving away the very work that could give it decent employment. Are we willing or do we just like to give away opportunities and then beg for work? That is a primary lesson in economics, which could be studied to advantage by all those who complain of lack of opportunities for employment. The same principle could be applied to many other lines of business. CHURCH AND RELIGIOUS ACTIVITIES Saturday, August 17, 1929 St. Cyprian's Chapel The regular 8 a. m. communion service, was held with Rev. Emmett E. Miller in charge, and was well attended. The preacher at the 11 a. m., service was the Rev. Emmett E. Miller, who took his text from the 12th verse, 13th chapter, first Epistle of Paul, the Apostle to the Corinthians.

Grace Church of Harlem A beautiful Sunday morning brought out a large portion of the congregation of Grace Church to assist Dr. Garner in observing the memorial day service both for the dead of Grate Congregational Church and the anniversary of the death of Dr. A. P. Miller. The choir rendered fine service, and with the aid of Miss Berstenner, soprano soloist, who sang two numbers in fine voice, added greatly to the service. Mrs. Elizabeth H. Davis read an original poem, "In Memorium," to the memorial of Dr. Miller. After the reading, Dr. Garner and his deacons, led by Deacon Harley, invited in prayer. Dr. Garner began this sermon by giving a brief eulogy of the members of Grace Church who have "passed on," and then paid a beautiful tribute to the life of the late Dr. Miller. The biggest thought left with the congregation by Dr. Garner was that we must live our lives on this earth; we will be able to a fitting memorial be laid us when God has called us to Himself. Three persons accepted the invitation of the pastor to unite with Grace Church and were given the right hand of fellowship. They are Arthur Brown; Brown 604* St. Nicholas avenue; Miss Emily T.

School convened at 9.15 a.m. and the Graconda Club at 2.15 p. m. Grace Church excursion, which went to Forest View Park on Friday, August 9, was a grand success from a "get-together" point of view. From the number of children in attendance it seemed as if the day was made especially for them. Not an unpleasant thing happened to mar the beautiful day or to upset the equilibrium of those attended. Much credit is of those to Dr. Garner, who had charge of the sports, and to Trustees Parks, Payne and Anderson, who looked after the comfort of the excursionists. The committee included Mr Mitchem, chairman; Henry Barnwell secretary and Percy W. Bean, treasurer. The vesper service at 7 o'clock was in charge of Cleveland Allen, chairman and Mrs. Gertrude Forrest, secretary. Grace Church is mourning the passing of the executive secretary, Dr. S.

E. Church. Dr. Scott did not take a text or deliver a sermon with an outline but gave a general talk, stressing the importance terms the church and impulse the church and of living a new spiritual life after outskating of the elements of the communion. He asserted that on Sunday, and especially on communion day, we should come to church filled with the spirit worship, remembering that serving God commences, when we leave the church, and the ideal way to serve Him is doing the right thing by our fellow man. The pastor, Dr. Toller, introduced Dr. churchstone Lord, who received from South America, who extended the invitation to join the church. Five persons came forward. At the evening hour, the students at the summer school at Columbia University had charge of the services. They were greeted by one of the largest audiences that have ever attended the summer services at the church. After the services a social tour was spent by a committee of ladies composed of members of the stewardess board, the Willing Workers and the Pastor's Volunteers. Character building and character aid the adolescent boy and girl were themes of the speakers, who were well informed and talked logically and eloquently on the subject matter. The services were opened by Oliver from纵横 Bascombe a student at the university, Mr. Bascombe and a high tribute to Dr. Tinker for his interest in the young woman a student and for his being a member of the host minds of the race to Bridge Street Church from time to time, where Brooklym may he topics of current interest.

Arthur Turner, principal of the Minor Normal School, Washington, D. C. Dr. Tyler was the last speaker. He held the position of honor for scholars for being able to turn aside on a Sunday evening and give the church the benefit of their knowledge and experience. A special musical program was arranged for the occasion. The senior and junior choirs rendered numbers and Miss Edna M. Over, a teacher in the Douglass High School at Baltimore, sang a solo. Miss Bessie Dickey, pianist and organist, gave James Welk and Johnson's "Ivy Jay." The sergees were attended by the majority of the summer students at Columbia.

Church at Cleveland, Ohio, will fill the pulpit. Dr. Tyler plans to take a much needed rest for two weeks, commencing August 20. Berean Baptist Church We were grateful at the large attendance at church Sunday, the pastor's sermon was uplifting to the old as well as the young. His subject was taken from the 6th chapter of Daniel, 10th verse and Psalms, 37th chapter, 7th verse. Daniel is the great hero for the Sunday schools this month, so since 6th Sunday school is closed, he brought this message. We were pleased to take in two new members. At the evening service we held communion. The pastor fellowship ten and took in two. Prayer meetings are overflowing. The parsonage is on its way, and in a few months it will be the home of the pastor. Ward 12 went to Westbury on Wednesday and had a nice time. Nazarene Cong.

In spite of the threatening aspect of the weather the services last Sunday morning were quite well attended. The choir, under the direction of Mrs. Taylor, was out in full. Mr Bell, assisted by the Rev. Father Morris, was accompanied of officers and reached on the theme "The Uplifting Power of the Spirit" using as his text, Ezekiel 3 12. "Then the Spirit lifted me up." Under the constant strain of lithe, he said, we are in danger of running down spiritually thus we need the constant infiltration of the Spirit to lift us back up to our normal state. Miss Edith Johnson led the eight o'clock union meeting in the evening. The theme of God as Revealed Nature's Laws" was the subject for discussion. At the morning service Sunday August 18, Mr. Bell will speak or the subject, "Left Over Forces in Human Nature" GEorge Hooper will be in charge of the evening program. The subject will be "Making the est use of Nature's Laws." Bethel Lyceum Hears Rev. Churchstone-Lord Bethel Lyceum Hears Rev. Churchstone-Lord Sunday afternoon, the Rev. S. E. Churchstone Lord, minister at British Guiana, delivered a forceful and interesting address before Bethel Young People's Lyceum. He particularly emphasized that he was not asking for financial aid but for the moral support and for the personal interest of the entire Negro citizenry of this nation. However he said there is a lack of vision here and we are 'not yet broad enough to reach out and see the other fellow's need and give him a helping hand and the man of the other race does. David E. Hadley, mining engineer of South America, spoke in high terms of the work being done by Dr. Lord and of how badly it was needed there. Counsor for Joseph C. Morris, president of the British Guiana Benevolence Association, praised the Rev. Lord for his fine work there. He said that there is a great opportunity for Negro people in America to render service by reaching out and helping black races in other parts of the world. Miss Martha Wilson was chairman of the program, and Miss Carrie L. Franks, mistress of ceremonies; musical numbers were rendered by Arthur Drayton, Clarence Louis Lord; reading by Miss Ruth Washington; and short talk by Edward Washington. Mrs. Lord, the wife of the Rev. Lord was introduced. MEN—18 TO 45 YEARS—BECOME POST OFFICE CLERKS AND CARRIERS EXAMINATIONS MONTHLY NEW YORK ACADEMY OF BUSINESS 447 LENOX AVENUE ST.

Dr. Peter Ainslee, of this city, a member of the Commission on the Church and Race Relations of the Federal Council of Churches, charged the churches in Prince William County with Plaintiff with responsibility for the recent race disturbances occurring in those communities. Citing the fact that the government, through tax exemptions, pay the churches annually more than $2,000,000,000 to check crime and set up moral standards, Dr. Ainslee declares that every race riot indicates that the churches have failed to keep their part of the solemn covenant entered into with the government." They have been fighting against crime and setting up moral standards that have to deal with racial understanding," he declared. Race Riot Inexcusable Continuing. he saldz "A race riot in a fair country like our Eastern Shore is inexcusable. They have churches and courts and fair-minded men. Why they should resort to a riot and brutal injustice to deserving Negroes is hard to understand. "The churches of the Eastern Shore have a task to make racial understanding a primary factor in their work, instead of giving so much attentio to their denominational doctrines, which at best are secondary factors for community relations. The role of Christians is to establish racial understanding. Two-thirds of the human race is colored and one-third is white. The colored races in all parts of the world are rising from subordinate places to higher positions of service and, consequently, there is friction in many instances. This is a reminder to us that attention has been given to other things of less importance than racial understanding, which is at a more critical stage now than in any period of the world's history."

Phil Edwards Spiked Toronto, Ont.-Phil Edwards, national half-mile champion and last season's captain of the New York University track, captured the half-mile event at the Ontario track and field championship here August 10, but was seriously hurt in the process. Edwards was badly spiked as he finished the first quarter-mile. His sheer was torn from his foot, but the flying runner regained his stride and came up from nearly last position to win from Wm Johnston of St Catherine's in 2 min. 3-4.5 seconds. After his victory Edwards was carried from the track and later it was announced that three stitches had been taken in his heel. Lincoln Giants and Baltimore Black Sox Both Win and Lose the Lincoln Giants invaded Baltimore Sunday, August 11, and split a doubleheader with the Black Sox before a record crowd. With Connie Rector on the mound the Lincoln's won the first game by a score of 3-2. The second game was called because of darkness. To the impartial fans, it looked like the team was favoring the home team in calling the game, as he waited until the New York team was in the midst of a batting gally and it looked as though they would take the lead when he discovered it was too dark to play longer. This four game series with the Black Sox will be concluded in day—the Lincoln playing at Hilldale's home grounds on Saturday. Cuban Stars Lose Double Header To The Hilldale Nine The loss of Jake Steven, a dramatic shortstop, has proved no handup to the hard-hitting Holliday Club of Darby, Pa., if their series with the Cuban Stars at Protectory Oval last Sunday is to be a gague. The Pennsylvanians won both games, the first by a score of 12-10 and the other 19-8. In the first game they beat Rosalil, the sensational new Cuban pitcher Pritthett and Gockrell were the opposing pitches. In the second game Holliday had little trouble winning. Both sides used two pitches—Strong and Charleson for Holliday and Juanello and Sipo for the Cubans.

THEATRES OF HARLEM At The Lafayette Theatre , At The Alhambra Theatre Bill Robinson, star of "Blackbirds," noted headliner on the beach "big, time" theatres, internationally famous athlete, singer, comedian and one of the greatest dancers the world has ever seen, the star of this week's show, at the Lafayette Theatre "The Jail Break" the drama at the Alhambra Theatre this week is timely and thrilling. Hayes Prory is seen as a brutal penitentiary warden and blackened Blackmon is a prison officer. P. Vax is a main under sentence of the electric chair for a murder he did not commit. No audience, anywhere, has ever given Bill Robinson to better advantage. He sings, he tells stories which convolve his audiences, he dances in that wonderful manner which is at once the wonder and the despair of the theatrical and the theatre-going world. To cap the climax of his remembrance of formance, Robinson makes the chorus of the brown-knip beauties, and down the stairs to apprise from the audience which made the walls of the Lafayette muser. A bugus preacher, played by Thomas Moseley, and an adventurer, played by Bessie Wrightson, in order to forestall confessions that would incriminate them, smuggle firearms into the prison, and there is an exciting jail break. Edna Barr as the daughter of the condemned man and Josephine Campbell as the 'trusty' girl do some especially effective emotional action. The musical comedy, "The Funny Page," abounds in absurdities led by Johnny Lee Long, the slim fellow, and George Crawford the eccentric comedian. The musical comedy trivia is called "Boyangles Revels" in honor or at the great Bill Robinson. There is a cast of some forty-five splendid supporting players. The six Tapping Whirlwinds, the Eagle Emperor, mony Fudd, Freddie Robinson, Snow Fisher, Mary Dixon, Chas. Ernest, Whitman and the five revues. Inez Seelye, an exquisite little dancer, joins with the Three Comet, Marty Hopkins, Harold Grittin and Charles Bunny, in a whirlwind act, which next week begins a tour of the Keith Circuit. Manda Randolph leads the Alhambra Girls in Lewis Armstrong's favorite number, lives with beloved obese and later, other dramatic song entitled "My People with a fervor that brings cheers from the audience." The music is rendered by Allie Ross and his Famous Orchestra. The feature photoplay for the week is "A Man's Mau" starring William Haines. the Belle Bennett is the star of the feature, "The Devil's Skip Renaissance Theatre When Fox's Movietone "Follies" comes to the Renaissance Theatre on Thursday, August 15, for five days, an opportunity of seeing Stepin Fetcht at his best is offered the patron of this theatre. The new star who has taken first place as a comedian, dances better, and portrays a part in the "Follies" that outshines his stellar performance in "Hearts in Dixie." Next Week's Show It will be two years next week since the Alhambra Theatre was opened by the present management and put in step with the modern development of Harlem. How well the people have responded to Alhambra offerings is now a matter of local history. An anniversary Revue will be presented all next week; with an abundance of special acts and features to celebrate the occasion. There will be an augmented cast, and scenery and costumes of exceptional richness. For the first time on the speaking screen, Fox has made a real Broadway musical revue, the kind one pays $10 on Broadway for the privilege of seeing, now offered to patrons the Renault in New York, and a regular me to prices. See and hear all this talking, singing and dancing musical comedy. "A Sister's Honor" is the drama selected for next week. It tells of a dashing chorus girl who vamps her sister's husband and the complications that follow, sending in a noble sacrifice by the wronged sis- "Walkin' With Susie," an exotic cross-section of night life in Harlem, is one of the outstanding numbers in the "Folles" that will provide a world of amusement to Harlemites. Another, called "Daniel Boone" presents in addition to the popular Stepin, Fetcht, such well known stars of the race as Annabelle Lee, George Reed and John Lester Johnson. Two hundred performers are used to produce this masterpiece. You hear sing as original song writers as, Walking With Susie, "That's You Baby" and "Big City Blues." Easily, Fox's Monetone "Folles," is one picture that you owe it to yourself to see and harb. By all means, do not miss it, George Bancroft in "The Thunderbush" comes to the Renaissance for one week commencing Saturday, August 24. The picture feature will be "Wo- mons with Bert Lynton and Ecklon Briggs." At The Roosevelt Grappling with wild tigers, and gorillas and the still more dangerous human emotions Lon Chaney gives the screen one of his most bizarre thrilling and powerful dramatic portrayals, in "Where East is East," a grim drama of an Ornate metal jungle which will be shown this Saturday Sunday and Monday August 17 18 and 19 at the Roosevelt Theatre. Chaney in the role of "Tiger" Haynes jungle animal trapper rides at the head of herds of elephants, battles with a ferocious tiger and actually traps one of the great beasts. His death struggle with a gorilla is a sensational highlight. Underlying the thrills is a gorgeous love romance. At The New Douglas Rin Tin Tin, most famous of dog stars, has a new pal in his latest Warner Bros picture, "Frozen River," which will be seen at the New Douglas Theatre Saturday, Sunday and Monday August 17, 18, 19. It is little Davey Lee, the wonderful child actor, who was discovered by Al Jolson and shared honors with that favorite in the "Singing Look." He has since been starred in "Sonny Boy." Ted Browning, responsible for many Chance hits, directed. Chance's portrayal is grippingly convincing, and his makeup a new and remarkable instance of his uncanny skill at disguise. Lupe Velaz, as his half native daughter, is a fiery little creature in a vivid role and Estelle Taylor as the exotic Oriental vampire is compellingly beautiful. Lloyd Hughes scores a triumph as the romantic lead In the picture Davey Lee is cast as the heroe's little brother who, alone in the woods one day, meets a strang dog, Lobo, raised by a pack of wolves. Lobo had left the park and made advances to mankind to meet with cruelty. He had become a killer, with a pride on his head, and had been known to attack men. But the savage breast was only a dog to the little boy and his laughing affection won the heart of the animal. That became friends and the dog afterwards saved the boy's life. The great river scene, and the "Frozen River" is a Vitaphone production, with sound and dialogue. The members of the cast including Raymond McKee, Frank Campeau and Nina Quarters are heard in several highly dramatic talking sequences. As a special attraction for the children, lack Hoxie in Hells of Hate will be shown at the afternoon performance on Thursday and Friday will be "Black Magpie," a frightful melodrama which stops the South Seas of its background of idealism and against a background of savagry, compute men, upestation, and death, unifies a story of heroic love and contagion, for the shadow of a death with witchcraft. Gus Smith, for years a well known actor, poet and author, will on Sunday, August twenty-fifth (evening) broadcast over station WGBS, New York, presenting an all-star, all colored half-hour, entitled "The Southlanders." Mr. Smith is the writer of the continuity of these half hours, and is in hopes of being able to make them a permanent feature with WGBS and other stations. Among the artists engaged are "The Dixie Mammes," a memoir available online. He has been signed to a recording contract by the General Phonograph Recording Co., who will feature them for a year; Mack, Daniel, a guitarist and entertainer of exceptional merit; Joe Loomis, tenor soloist, formerly the Pan-American Four, Hezekiah Jenkins, exceptional artist on the harmonica, Robt. Slater, master of ceremonies. Mr Smith will recite original poems of the farmer folk of the Southland. Claude Lawson's "Swance Four" recently of "Bambooola," have been engaged by the Brunswick Recording Co., to record a series of numbers written by Donald Haywood, well known writer of "I'm coming, Virginia." Colored actors as a group are all smiles these days. These are rehearsal days and the producers are busy selecting casts for the season, which is expected to be a good one. If its as good as the summer was bad we will all be happy Bill Robinson is heading the bill at the Lafayette Theatre this week.

Stole Sylvester Brown's Stole Sylvester Brown's Stole The Pullman service army was well represented at the Pullman porters outing at Pelham Bay Park on Wednesday of last week. Among the industrial soldiers to be seen were local commandants, captains, heutenants, plain privates and retired veterans. And these came from alar as well as near. For instance, there was Perry Parker, chief aide to the major of the Pullman forces, who came all the way from Chicago. Then there was 'W. K. Banks, who has a say in the Penn. Terminal district as to what men are likely to make good soldiers in the Pullman army, who came over from Philadelphia. And this reminds us, if you would like to know the Pullman employment policy from a scientific point of view, from a point in which it is necessary for the employee to sink his own ideas and feelings if he would make himself a valuable asset to his employer, then see Assistant Supervisor Banks of the Philadelphia zone employment bureau. Banks is an example of what opportunities may be grasped by the Negro, with the trained mind, even in the Pullman service. Several years ago, he was a porter in the Philadelphia district. He and G. W. Kirk of the Sunnyside Yards clerical forces were buddies for the day. Another out-of-tower was F. H. W. Jones, porter-instrutor in the Pittsburgh district. To be sure, it is only a lively imagination, but all these colored Pullman supervisors that this reporter has met have either the ministerial air or the academic look. Jones has the latter appearance, even to the way he wears his hair. But coming to the local detachments and their officers, there were Superintendent and Mrs. Rittenhouse, who made a happy picture as they wended their way around the park. Also to be seen were Assistant Superintendent Scudder of the New York forces and Superintendent Watson of the P. T. forces, who had the appearance of officers who were well pleased with their soldiers. It was clearly observant that the McDermott brothers, the superintendent and the inspector, were enjoying themselves as heartily as the occasion would permit. And there appeared no particular reasons why they should not have. Both have seen service for more than two decades, and both have come to know the type of porters who composed the greater part of the assembly. The staff of lieutenants was conspicuously represented by the Texan-looking "Bill Taylor", in his navy blue coat and white flannel trousers. If there is any one thing out of which this Pullman soldier gets a supreme kick that thing is a Pullman affair. It makes no difference regarding the type of affair, so it has Pullman approval. The handsome bachelor is a stickler for things Pullman. And lest we forget, there was the diplomat, Freeman, of the G. C. district, and the orator, Sample, of the P. T. district. Perhaps the porters in these two territories may not realize it, but much of the success of their various affairs, fraternal as well as social, is due in a large part to these two men. Some of the old veterans to be observed mingling, with the crowd were George Sylvester, who still attends every Pullman event of 'note despite his 78 years; "Doc" Canty, the Williamsbridge realty holder, whose thin face and philosophical manner enables him to belie his 70 odd years, and the indomitable George F. Ford, the voluntary pension fund advocate. Each of these veterans gives promise of reaching the 100 year mark. Mr. and Mrs. Abrams Entertain Perry Parker Mr. and Mrs. Abrams Entertain Perry Parker Perry Parker, grand chairman of the Pullman Porters Benefit Association, was the honored guest of Mr. and Mrs. Edward Abrams at a dinner party given at their home, 2355 Hudson Boulevard, Jersey City, on Wednesday evening, August 7, after the porters field day and picnic. The other guests included Mr. and Mrs. P. A. Sample of Jersey City; W. E. Kirk of New York; and F. H. W. Jones of Pittsburgh. Mr. and Mrs. Abrams are the parents of Miss Marguerite Abrams, a teacher in the public schools of Jersey City, and a verse writer of promising prospects. Who Stole Sylvester Brown's Stuff Sylvester Brown, a veteran porter and esteemed friend of this column, writes a letter to the editor in which he complains of someone plagiarizing a communication he had written to the column regarding another veteran. The letter is intended only for personal consumption, but it is so good—from a columnist's point of view—that we cannot forego the temptation to publish it. The letter reads. "DEAR MR. HOGANS: "I have a letter in my pocket that I wrote to you on last Thursday, August 1, concerning the kindness shown Mr. Moses L. Holmes, our retired porter, and in some way that letter got misplaced.

A tragic accident, which happened to one of the members of the group, was the only incident that robbed the meet out of this felicitous setting. The fatal accident was the drowning of Lionel Baker, a new porter, in the Pullman center. Baker, with seven children, had one to Pelham Bay to take a swim in diving from one of the two boats that had been hired by the bathing party, the unfortunate young man, so the theory was advanced, struck his head on one of the many rocks that abound in the waters of the bay at the point where he dived. the numerous American flags placed appropriately about the grounds. When one veteran was asked, "What's the ideal for so many flags?" he answered: "To represent the greatest country and the greatest employer of Negro labor in the world." A marker overheard the remark and said, "huh"; but the veteran was off to where the band was giving its concert, before any com- Aside from that accident, it was a perfect day for the 1500 adults and children who journeyed to the Westchester playground to guide the inmates, the only group of Negro laborers in these partys to give such an affair. Parade Led By 35-Year Service Veteran. The first feature of the outing was the veterans' parade, which started from Imperial Elks Home, in West 129th street and Seventh avenue, at 10 a.m. The procession was headed by John Jackson, a thirty-five year service veteran, who bore the large-sized Stars and Stripes banner as proudly, and as well as a West Point cadet leading his first exhibitional parade. Following the veteran was the Pullman Porters Band of the twin districts, which as followed in turn by automobile containing the head officers of the two districts, behind these came the colored members of the official staffs of the two territories with their spic and span outing sets. Nets in order were the veteran porters. As the procession of veterans left their starting place and swung into Seventh avenue, to the lively tunes of their own musical aggregation, the first act in the early play was on. player of Regio 1600 Entering the park, the thing that attracted attention As Inad Electric Lights to WHO would even light in one room and It's almost as bad with the house.

NEW YORK TELEPH ORK TELEPHONE NEW YORK TELEPHONE COMPANY PAGE TEN the numerous American flags, placed appropriately about the grounds "When one veteran was asked, "What's the idea for so many flags?" he answered: "To represent the greatest country and the greatest employer of Negro labor in the world." A hystander overheard the remark and said, "huh!"; but the veteran was off to where the band was giving its concert before any com- Pullman Heads Show Different Side. Porters who are accustomed to see stern faces in their supervising officers, saw the faces of these officers in a different pose, unless their outward expressions belied their inward feelings, these officers were vicing with their men in giving event to the holiday spirit. This was obvious when the camera man turned his machine on a group of officials, who were posing for a picture. In this group were Superintendent and Mrs J. A. Rittenhouse, the torriner head of the Pullman Northwestern zone, D. C. Scudder, his assistant, and R. V. Watson, superintendent of the Southeastern zone. Then there was also a group picture composed of Mrs S J Freeman, wife of Welfare Worker Freeman of the Grand Central district, and Mrs. Dora Halloway, one of the oldest maids, in point of service, in the Pullman employment. Both the children and their little grandchildren, who made a pretty picture as they elumg childlike to their grandmother's hands. Children Make Interesting Scene. Another interesting scene was that made by the children as they formed in line to receive the little individual bottles of milk that had been provided for them. The enclosure from which the milk was issued was so arranged that it had all the appearances of one of Mrs. Hearst's milk booths. Attached to a convenient tree was this sign "Free Milk, Pullman Welfare Department." Adjacent to the milk station was the food table. The crowd that milled around that was like any crowd where, free food is served. It was busy until the larders were empty. For an hour or more, a score of white-coated waiters, all Pullman porters, served barbecued lamb, roast ham, ice cream and cake to the throng of guests. Leaving the food table, the crowd drifted over to where the W. C. Taylor's trophy races for youngsters were being held. A little miss, who looked as though she might do better in a walking race than a running one, was declared winner of the first prize in the contest. The second prize was won by one of the contestants who appeared to have better legs for running than walking. Baseball Game Full of Partisan hip and Excitement. Seemingly, the committee followed the routine of the motion picture director arrangement of the picnic features. They made the baseball game the final reel. For climax they couldn't have arranged a more effective ending for the day's program. There may be no apparent rivalry between the porters of the Grand Central district and the porters of the Penn. Terminal district as to service. But when it comes to the claim as to which district has the better ball team—well, the rivalry is not only manifest, but it is intensely so. This reporter received an unliking call from asked Manager Hunter of the G. C. team if it were safe to lay a little bet on his boys. Before the question was answered, a Grand Central porter wanted to know how much the reporter had to bet. Pitcher Keeps Cool. Besides being replete with exciting moments, the most remarkable feature of the game, was the retention of Pitcher McQueen of the N. Y. C. team of his temper under rather trying circumstances. It was a rare exhibition of self-control. An argument had developed between McQueen and one of his playing mates regarding some incident connected with the game. The argument became hectic. Young Mrs. McQueen, who was a spectator, thinking the players coming to blows, ran in between them. Her act, as the later expressed it, was to protect her husband. And she did in a way. The excused player turned from the husband to the wife, and before the former could realize what was happening, his wife was slapped several times in the face. Had his team mates not intervened, there is no telling what would have resulted from the melice as this fellow, McQueen, has the appearance of a man who can fight as well as pitch. Fortunately, for the game, if nothing more, his team mates held him until he had time to collect himself, and listen to the explanation that "it was all due to the excitement under which his team mate was laboring". Ordinarily such an experience would have had a tendency to hurt a pitcher's chance of winning in any sort of game. But the ordinary didn't happen. The N Y C. hurler went back to his box and pattered as well as if he had left his wife cheering instead of crying on the players' bench. Spectators Laud Husband's Tolerance. Remarking on the incident, Frentest Johnson, a veteran porter, said it was one of the greatest acts he ever saw exhibited in his life. Others who witnessed the incident coincided with the observation Good Game Despite Grounds. Although the grounds were rather rough for a ball field, both teams played a good game.

P. THOMAS, Prop. THE NEW YORK AGE team to make comparisons, for, as said, the eld was a poor one. Nevertheless, with apologies to Manager Hunter of the Grand Central boys and Manager Reid of the P. T. boys, from this reporter's slight knowledge of baseball, the G. C. team played a weak game in the outfield, but a corking good one in the infield, while the work of the P. T. team in the outfield was extremely good, but its infield playing was rather ragged. This, however, is not expert criticism, and, taken on the whole, the game was one of the very interesting features of the day. One suggestion might be offered here, however. The players should have some sort of insignia on their uniforms so spectators could tell the district to which they belong. The similarity of the uniforms in color made this difficult. But there is one thing that came near being forgotten: The score. The Mott Haven humbled the proud 'Sunnyside team by the margin of 12 to 10. But this was no reason for believing the young rooters on New York Central's side who rah rahed this: It was a great day, a great crowd and, as everyone agreed, "a great time."
