Three Suits For Discrimination Filed Against Producers of King Vidor's Movietone, 'Hallelujah'
Harlem Business Men Refused Tickets for the Embassy Theatre Performance Are Told the House Is Sold Out; Others Refused, Too
That "Hallelujah" is being presented at the Lafayette Theatre in Harlem to keep Negro patrons from going to the Broadway showing is the charge made last week by three young Harlem business men in a suit filed under the Civil Rights Law against Loew's, Inc.
The plaintiffs in the action are b. H. Bolling, real estate operator of 2141 Seventh avenue; Lorenza Debnam, associated with the estate of W. David Brown at 2151 Seventh avenue, and Lloyd G. Phillips of 2141 Seventh avenue
in the vicinity, at 1540 Broadway. Mr. Brekstone checked on their story by sending Albert Geiger, a clerk and process server in his office, back to The Embassy, and he succeeded in purchasing three tickets for the evening performance
Told House Is Sold Out
Their complaint alleges that on Wednesday afternoon, August 21 they called at the box office of the Embassy Theatre and sought to purchase tickets for the next performance of "Hallelujah." The ticket seller informed them that the house was sold out for two weeks. They got out of line and for fifteen minutes watched white patrons buy tickets for the performance for which they had been told there were no more tickets. Then they went to see Attorney Abraham Brekstone, whose office is

Atlantic City is all dressed up in a colorful attire of flags and buntings, and has made ample preparation to entertain her guests, the thirtieth annual session of the I. B. P. O. E. of W., which opened Sunday, August 25:
Trains loaded with delegates and high officials of the order are rolling in from all four corners of the States. As the wheels of the monster steel engines, drawing eight and ten coaches, seem to roll on a soft pedal as they glide into the stations, the local band strikes up popular airs of welcome to the visitors.

WAR DEPARTMENT LIFTS BAN ON BURIAL OF CIVILIAN AT ARLINGTON TO PERMIT BURIAL OF 'JIM' PARKS
WAR DEPARTMENT LIFTS BAN ON BURIAL OF CIVILIAN AT ARLINGTON TO PERMIT BURIAL OF 'JIM' PARKS
Washington, D. C.—The War Department lifted the ban against civilian burials in Arlington Center long enough today to permit Charlie Jim" Parks to begin his long sleep of death in that reservation where he passed his life as a Negro slave boy a freed slave, an aging worker and a guide.
A slave of George Washington Parks Curtis, the adopted son of George Washington and father-in-law of Robert E. Lee, he saw the battle tides of the Civil War roll over the wooded hillsides and fields where he played as a boy, saw the roffins "stacked like cord-wood" after Manassas. Then, puzzled and aged, his sad old eyes watched the fierer increasing wave of white headaches roll farther and farther through the lanes and glades in Arlington "estate" as the native used its heroes in that and later wars.
For almost ninety years the place was named to him. He was born there played and "toiled and was married there in the crinoline days of his half-forgotten past. He was "mused at" by Major Curtis, trousled for "Miss Mary" and bowed low to the stately figure of her husband, General Robert E.
in the vicinity, at 15:40 Broadway.
Mr. Brekstone checked on their story by sending Albert Geiger, a clerk and process server in his office, back to The Embassy, and he succeeded in purchasing three tickets for the evening performance
Actions For $500 Each
Actions for damages in the amount of $500 for each was then started by Mr. Brekstone, the paper in the case being served the next day.
Although this is the first suit recorded because of alleged discrimination in the showing of this all-colored picture, a number of complaints have been heard from Harlem residents who sought tickets at The Embassy and were informed that that house was sold out but tickets could be secured at The Lafayette.

CIRAL OF 'JIM' PARKS
The guns of war spoke soon after he, with the rest of some 500 slaves, had been freed by the will of their master, Blue-clad soldiers came to the plantation, and the spurred boots of their officers rang discord through the quiet house that had been Lee's home.
The blue soldiers marched South and soon the bewildered Parks was aiding in the first military burials at Arlington. He helped build Fort Whipple, the Civil War fortification where Fort Myer now is. Time quieted the cannon and peace rereturned to the old plantation, but never again the old order. Time brought progress and more wars and more changes.

He never wanted to leave his "home." And by the War Department's ruling he never will, his military assets have been halved with a military salute.
NEW YORK, N. Y., SATURDAY, AUGUST 31, 1929
BYRON D. BROWN
(Alias Byron M. Beaucaire), who was arrested in Hatlem Barber Shop while trying to dispose of his loot.
POLICE RECOVER $250,000 JEWELS IN HARLEM SHOP
Found In Possession of Boston Negro; 4 Are Held for Robbery
Three detectives of the Safe and Loft Squad of the Police Department arrested four men and recovered jewelry valued at a quarter million dollars on Monday in the barber shop at 2397 Seventh avenue, operated by Salley and Smith, in the building which houses the Bamboo Inn.
The jewelry had been stolen from the Home of Mr. and Mrs. Sydney E. Hutchinson. - Beverly Farm, Mass. on the night of August 10. Mrs. Hutchinson is a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. E. T. Stotsbury, Philadelphia, and her husband is a broker with offices in that city. The burglar used a flashlight and when its gleam struck her face as she lay sleeping, she awoke to see the man calmly and expertly selecting the most valuable of her jewels, which were in a box on her bureau, five from the bed. She screamed and the man fled making his escape.
The detectives, John Monohan, Levine and Karsan, had been trailing the men for several hours, on a tip that had been gotten by Commissioner Whalens new undercover secret service squad, until they went into the barber shop, Watching through a window, the officers saw one of the men draw from his pocket a long pearl necklace valued at $139,000. Immediately they rushed the shop, not waiting to draw their guns.
Byron B. Jones, alas Byron M. Beauclair, 3d, of 5 Wellington street, Boston, with a room at 150 West 140th street, said to have a long police record in New Jersey, met the detectives' rush with a drawn gun, ordering them to "stick 'em up and keep 'em up until I'm gone," backing toward the rear door.
Knocked·Out With Blackjack.
But as ice was slowly backing out, James Salley, barber, of 102 West 139th street, to whom Jones had handed the pearl necklace, made an effort to get rid of it by flipping it into telephone booth. This momentally distracted Jones' attention and in that moment Detective Levine whipped out his (continued on seventh Page).
New York Police In Elk's Big Parade
Special orders issued by Police Commissioner Grover Whalen authorized Capt. Edward Bracken, commanding the 32nd precinct, to detail a squad of seven patrolmen under command of Detective Sergeant Samuel J. Battle, to go to Atlantic City on Tuesday, August 27, in full uniform, to represent the New York City Police Department by serving as an honor or escort to Mi-Tee Monarch Lodge, No. 45, in the spectacular street parade that afternoon. Those composing the squad were Patrolman Edward Green, Charles Jackson, Edward Jackson, Samuel McPadden, Lewis Chisholm, Morrell Davis and Alexander Johnson, all from the 32nd precinct. They marched at the head of Monarch Lodge and on many plaques by their splendid appearance and bearing. Patrolman Allen J. Benton, of the 32nd Precinct, was also in Atlantic City, though not in uniform.
First Photo of 32d Precinct's New Home
Above is a reproduction of the architect's drawing of the new home of the police officers of the 32nd Precinct, to be erected by the city on the site of the present station house at 242-252 West 135th street, which is commanded by Capt. Edward Bracken.
A STRIKING CONTRAST
The present building is at 250 to 250, but the adjoining properties at 242, 244 and 252 have been acquired by the city so that the quarters may be enlarged. According to Police Commissioner-Grover Whalen, the new building will be the most modern and best equipped in the country, and will afford every facility for the administration of police affairs in this precinct.
An emergency squad, with riot and machine guns and gas bombs equipment, will be stationed in this precinct, and in the building will be located separate cell blocks for men and women prisoners. Ample and comfortable resting places will be provided for use of the reserves, individual costs, being given each man. It will be the last word in police equipment. It will be a handsome structure, and will add much to the architectural beauty of the blooc, and will cost in the neighborhood of $300,000, not including the cost of the land
An interesting contrast, showing the modernization of the New York Police Department, is shown in the accompanying pictures, that of a patrolman in the uniform worn in 1911, and the same man in the uniform of a captain in 1929. Shown in the Commissioner's annual report, the identity of the officer was not given, but he has been identified as the present commander of the West 135th street station, Capt. Bracken, 32nd Precinct.

MRS. WARNER IS DENIED PLEA IN CONKLIN SUIT Court Without Jurisdiction Over Charge She Was Jim Crowed
Mrs. Hortense Warner of 145 West 142nd street has lost her appeal to the Supreme Court for an injunction against Robert Conklin, Republican leader in the 21st A D and has associates, to present the division of that district into two parts, with a white leader in the western section and a Negro in the eastern
In her suit, Mrs. Warner declared that the dividing of the district ordered her as associate executive member and as a prospective candidate for State Assembly, making her the victim of Jim Crow tactics on part of the Republican leaders.
On Saturday, August 24, Justice William T. Collins handed down
Julia Wilson of 205 West 142nd street, who had been substituted as County Committeewoman for Mrs. Emma Leonard, was stricken from the ballot because she was an enrolled Democrat but had deceived 29 Republicans by having them sign her petition for membership on the committee.

polman in 1911, and as a
an opinion, declaring that the court had no jurisdiction, and that Mrs. Warner is not an associate executive member of the district, as she had declared. She was represented by James V. Kilroe of 30 West 4th street, a former Assistant District Attorney. Mr. Kilroe is quoted as saying that in looking over Mrs. Warner's brief he did not discover that was not actually an associate leader.
The dividing of the district occurred at a meeting held June 17, and Conklin and Charles W. Mitchell were named as co-leaders for the white and colored sections, respectively.
Strike-Provoking Issue.
In the opinion handed down, referring to the segregation charges made by Mrs. Wartner, Justice Collins said.
"I can see no occasion or justification for the plaintiff to have brought any such strife/provoking issue into this dispute. The charge is made that prejudice against the colored race is behind the proposed redistricting of the Twenty-first Assembly District. It would be regrettable, indeed, if this were a fact. But if it were true it would be a wrong for which the authors would be responsible to the electorate and for which approval would have to be made to the conscience of the party and not to the court.
"It is the sole province of the Republican Party and its county committee to establish as many committees other than five or county committees as they may deem for its best interests. The court is wholly without power to dictate or proscribe the boundaries of the executive committee districts established."
Congressman DePriest Tells Harlem Voters That Negro Leadership In The 19th A. D. Should Not Be Begged
By Hallie Queen Jackson
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, in writing, some years ago, of the strength in sleeping Italy, said, with prophetic vision
"Tomorrow, perhaps today, Euceladus will arise."
Then he went on to explain that Euceladus, a sleeping giant, did not recognize his own strength, but that when he once became conscious of it, he would arise in might and power.
The spirit of such an awakening Euceladus was seen in the group that gathered in the Abyssinian Baptist Church, 156 West 138th street on Wednesday, August 21, at 8 p. m., to hear Hon. Oscar De Priest, Member of Congress, unfurl the banner of Negro Leadership.
3,000.Crowd.Church
The meeting was held in the interest of the Moore-Rivers-Fillmore campaign, in which Fred R. Moore is candidate for Alderman; Francis E. Rivers for the Assembly, and Col. Chas Fillmore for leadership in the 19th Assembly District.
Three thousand enthusiastic citizens overflowed the church, and standing room was at a premium. As Congressman D. De Priest walked down the aisle, with his herculean frame crowned by a leonine head of white hair, he looked every inch the confident, fearless leader. He was greeted by David B. Costuma, former leader of the Nineteenth District; by the candidates for office, and by Attorney Hubert Delamy, Congressman candidate from the 21st District.
Attorney Harold Forstenzer presided at the mass meeting and reported on the 'petitions which had been filed with the Board of Elections, stating that over eleven hundred names had been sent in for Mr. Moore, and 1,027 has Mr. Rivers.
Costuma Apologizes.
After introductory remarks by Michigan C. Brown, David B. Costuma made a stirring speech on the part the Negro plays in the politics of the 19th Assembly District. He apologized to the voters for having turned over the leadership when he did. He explained that he was not and never had been a candidate for any position; that he had no axe to grind, but that he felt that had he remained in office until the 19th District was ready for its Negro leaders, that he would not have a suspicious feeling that he had almost betrayed its confidence. His eulogy, of Fred R. Moore was filled with terms of approbation, approval and co-operation. In the record of Francis Ellis Rivers, his record includes graduation from Yale and Columbia, a Phi Beta Kappa Key, and active service in the Argonne Forest, Mr. Costuma asked, "Where, under God's green footstool can you find a candidate better prepared than that?"
De Priest Gives Challenge
Col. Charles Fillmore, the candidate for leadership, was introduced as a man of the people—a soldier of the old Fifteenth, and a holder of the Croix de guerre.
The first words of Congressman De Priest were a challenge—"Why should a district with 92 per cent. Negro voters be begging anyone to give them representation?" He reviewed briefly the electoral statistics of Harlem, stating that there is a Negro population of 300,000, with about 100,000 qualified voters only about one-third of whom register and vote.
From that point his speech was forceful, informative, and, at times, almost denunciatory of the lethargy of the voters. He suggested that some one might say he had no right to speak for New York State, let that he claimed the right to speak at any time and anywhere for Negro leadership. He compared the conditions in the 19th Assembly District of New York with those in similar districts in Chicago, where there is

· Hard To Get Food.
Restaurants and all eating places were unprepared to take care of the hungry throngs coming in Tuesday. Some were patiently waiting for one and two hours for a mere sandwich or hot dog. A man who knew his fish said that he had traveled a long distance to get a good meas of Atlantic City fried fish, because it was the best to be found anywhere. The beautifully decorated floats end of the parade, which lasted for two hours. With the exception of a few Elks taking a ride in the Atlantic City police patrol wagon, and charged with minor offences, everything was orderly.

200 Voters at Meeting For Race Leadership at Moore-Rivers Quarters
Some 200 voters of the 19th A.D. assembled at headquarters of the Moore-Rivers Campaign Committee on the second floor of 230 West 135th street in interest of the candidacies of Francis E. Rivers for nomination in the September 17 primaries as Republican candidate for the State Assembly, and for the naming of Alderman Fred R. Moore for reelection as Alderman.
It was an enthusiastic and earnest group of voters who gave close attention to the various speakers who outlined plans for establishing majority leadership in the 19th A.D., thus freeing the district of autocratic and unscrupulous control of Abraham Grenthal who holds now the dual position of Assemblyman and leader. Intensive efforts are to be put forth in the days leading up to Primary Day.
Many voters who were unable to be present replied to the invitation, pledging their support to the movement, and assuring the committee of willingness to aid in every way possible for the bringing about of race leadership. Harold Forsten presider, and staff member by Mr. Rivers, Col Chas, W. Fillmore, a candidate to succeed Grimalth as leader, Michigan C. Brown and Alderman Fred R. Moore. They were given splendid receptions by their heaters.

August Activities at YWCA Make Gay Showing
The August atmosphere of the building is usually very gay as summer visitors and tourists come and go, but, during the past week, things have been even livelier than usual. It has been very pleasant to have a group of women in the building—women who are earnest workers in their profession—conducting a convention with purpose and direction. It was a real privilege to extend the hospitality of the branch to the group of nurses meeting in the 22nd annual convention of the National Association of Colored Graduate Nurses. The meetings were held from August 19 to 23, with a registration of about 200.
Among the most delightful physical feature of the Emma Ransom House, our Y W. C. A. residence, are the two outer courts of the building. The fundamental purpose of these courts is to give light and air for fire and exercise but they are very pleasant in them selves. During the summer there is always a bit of green growing in them and there are seats and benches. They offer a haven of coolness and quiet to the residents of the building. We are therefore particularly grateful for the gift of three lovely cedar trees for these courts. The trees were sent to us by Wallace Reid, through the courtesy of the Upper and other members of the Community Council Camp at Livingston Manor, Sullivan County, N.Y.
The Business and Industrial Girls' Club Department is the proud possessor of a fine new Victoria and a good many interesting records. This Victoria was given to us by Mrs. E. H. Deane of East 86th street, through the interest of one of our members, Miss Lucy Lewis. Among the many visitors to the Branch during the past week were Congressman Oscar DePriest and Congressman Fiorella H. La Guardia, Republican Candidate for Mayo, who made a tour of the building. Binghamland Chisell, Baltimore; Miss Eartha M. M. White, Jacksonville, Fla.; Lewis R. Lewis, Indianapolis, Ind.; Mr. and Mrs. R. T. Tatum and Misses Nellie and Joyce Tatum of Beaumont, Texas; Robert E. Kearse of Vaux Hall, N. J.; T. Parker Smith, Kansas City, Kan.; Dr. and Mrs. T. A. Lythcott and son of Tulsa, Okla.

Harlem Artists Show Pictures at Library
The first annual 'art exhibition of Harlem artists is being held at the 135th street branch of the Public Library. The exhibition will extend through to September 20. There is some very good work being shown by the respective artists. M. Gray Johnson, who won the Harmon award for his work, is on the exhibition and several paintings which are very good, altho the "self-portrait" is not true of Mr. Johnson.
W. J. Russel's painting, "The Two Seasons," shows a perfect understanding of his subject, both in coloring and technique. Earl Sweeting's "After the Storm" is well done. George Robinson has one picture, "Milford Mills," which is one of the outstanding paintings in the exhibition, J. H. Robinson, who had a "one man" exhibition at the library a short time ago, is also a contributor to the exhibition. His "Quitetude" fills one with the stillness and beauty of the scene. Aaron Douglas is improving as is shown by his picture, "Carlina." Evangeline St. Clair's "Landscape" is good, as is also the "Study" by Ellis Wilson. Augusta Savage has some fine pieces of sculpture, and E. McDowell has a head which is very good.
The Harlem artists are to be commended on the fine showing they have made in this their first exhibition.

The Week of August 31 ASTROLOGICALLY CONSIDERED
BY THEARCHER
Venus will bring happiness, and socail gain through the opposite sex to the birthdates of July 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30 and 31 all this week. The best day seems to be August 31. Watch some of the people of these birthdates whom you know. Another good day here is September 5. They will be able to adjust some of their romantic differences this week if they use the right days.
Saturn is again direct in motion and will affect the affairs of the birthdates of December 15, 16 and 17 all this month. This is not a good month for the people of these birthdates to make any important changes. Routine matters and thoughtful planning for the future is best. The most adverse period seems to be the 3rd and 4th of September. The changes that will come will be more or less disturbing. The best day is September 1. The health should be guarded, and the chest and throat should be accorded special care. Matters will begin to improve after September 17 for these birthdates.
Jupiter is bringing opportunities for social honor; financial gain; and preferment in employment to the birthdates of June 6 and 7 all the week. The best days are September 1 and 5, but it must be remembered that old plans and matters of long standing will turn out better than new plans. These birthdates will hardly do so well new plans and it will seem that things are not just what they should be, but the vibrations of Jupiter never fail to bring some advantage when

SOUTHERN MINISTER SCORES AMERICA'S TREATMENT OF NEGRO
Republican Political Conditions In Georgia Explained By Joseph H. Watson, 40 Years Active In Party
Joseph H. Watson of Albany, Ga., one of the strong Republican leaders in that state and one of its most prominent citizens, is spending a few weeks in New York City. He was a delegate to the last Republican National Convention held at Kansas City, and received 9½ of a total of 16 votes for election as a member of the Republican National Committee.
Through the apparent opposition of the former National Committeeman, Bepi J. Davis of Atlanta, Mr. Watson was not allowed to take his seat on the committee, although Mrs. George S. Williams of Savannah, who received the same number of votes as National Committeemen, was accepted and enrolled and is recognized as a full-fledged member of the committee.
Major F. A. Stokes, War Veteran and Physician, Dies at Vets. Hospital
Tuskegee, Ala.—Major E. A. Stokes, a veteran of the World
Leaders Are Ignored
Asked to present conditions in Republican ranks in Georgia, Mr. Watson said that the present Administration at Washington is paying no need to the regular political leader, the matriarch of the nation, espending patronage, not to the extent of consulting Mrs. Williams. All matters pertaining to appointments are in the hand; what is termed an Advisory Committee, is the Political Brown, with Laptes, Hoggins and Henry Davis, two white Atlantians, as chairman and secretary-treasurer, respectively. But it is said that although his nape does not appear in the House, Rose, a lawyer, and Collector of Internal Revenue, the dominating influence.
Referring to the matter of his rejection as National Committee, Mr. Wilson said he could not understand why, with the same number of votes, he was rejected. While he was rejected. Although the matter has been before the National Committee since the Kansas City meeting, no action has been taken. At each meeting of the committee, Mr. Wilson was represented by Rosie Pocketi of Jasper, Ga., Republican state chairman, one of the state men who is lined up in opposition to the lily white movement have been present, but refused the matter, but instead referred al-
Men Unknown In Party
This delay, thinks Mr. Watson, is far larger than the efforts of Ben Davis, who was called before the congressional investigation committee, and charged five it had collected money from paimasters and, other local appointees under Republican administrations. Following his failure to be reelected in 2012, Mr. Davis also suggested the name of C. F. Flanders, a white man, as state chairman and National Committee man, although Mr. Fekett was duly elected as chairman of the regular meeting of the
Active in Republican politics in Georgia for forty years, Mr. Watson declares that the men he has met are men who have had no connection with the party within his knowledge, say that Hopkins is known to be leader of the lily whites in the state, no record in any Negro leader.
Lily White Plan Control
This lily white element, says Mr. Watson, is evidently planning an effort in 1930 to get control of the party in the state. It is this influence he thinks, together with the fact that 1930 is also to hold the Democrat in command that is accountable for the delay in action on his case. A decision against Watson would probably have a disastrous reaction among Negro Republican voters in states above the Dixon and Dixon line, with a possibility of giving the Democrats an advantage. As to getting control of the State Convention, the lily whites are not in favorable position to succeed. Six of the twelve districts are controlled by Negro leaders, and two by whites with hull-control in another, the lily whites are in control of the three and each hill districts in hands of the lily whites.

Joseph Fletcher, builder at Talbene, is in charge of the work. He's new New York office, the architect of these colleges.
Major F. A. Stokes, War Veteran and Physician, Dies at Vets. Hospital
Tuskegee, Ala.—Major E. A. Stokes, a veteran of the World War and member of the medical staff of the U. S. Veteran Hospital at Tuskegee, Ala., died at that institution from acute nephritis at 8.15 a.m. Sutday, August 25. Dr. Stokes, a graduate of Purdue University in pharmacy and the Medical College of Indiana, entered the Veterans Bureau Service here May 21, 1924. He was a life-long student of the medical officer in charge, and at one time served as assistant medical officer in charge. He 'sgerveda as field physician in the Indian-Service from 1907 to 1914, and was commissioned a, first heutenant at the Officer's Training School, Des Moines, Ja. He was later promoted to captain of the American Expeditionary Forces eight months in France.
His general practice as a physician covered a period of fourteen years at Indianapolis, Ind. He was fifty-five years of age and is survived by a wife, Mrs. Zoe Stokes, and one son.
One of the strongest supporters of Mr. Watson and Mr. Pickett is N. Hendricks of Edition, who was one of the white collegates at large to the Kansas City Convention.
Advisory Board In Florida.
An Associated Press report, published August 27, shows that Postmaster General Brown has put the Federal appointments in Florida into the hands of a special ad-hoc committee named in Georgia, as referred by Mr Watson, the members of which are lily whites. Glenn Skinner, Republican National Committee, named twelve men and a chairman, several months ago but who are not satisfactory to the Post Office Department, so he has nominated a new group which has been accepted.

West Indian Societies
British Consulate General New York, August 23, 1929 Editor of The New York Age: There are in New York, many West Indian Societies by names peculiarly adopted to each of the West Indian Islands, Bermuda and Bahamas. These societies promote the general interests of West Indians and encourage charity have originated with these institutions, which in addition afford counsel and assistance to strangers upon their arrival, leading them to prosperity to the benefit of the indian community. The disdain of this their adopted country. These societies, however, can hardly be expected to afford relief to other than their own members although many of them have in the past generally contributed towards deserved attention, when brought to their attention.
May I, therefore, through the medium of your publication, appeal to West Indians who in the past have so generously given their assistance to get together with a teacher an organization which will cater to individual cases of adversity and afford temporary relief to worthy indigent West Indians, who through misfortune have deprived of the means of earning their livelihood. Such an organization would be able to centralize-relief work of the West Indian Society, thus enlisting the talents and see that as far as possible West Indian residents in New York would take care of their own poor and unemployed, thereby taking a considerate burden from the students of American charitable institutions.

America Leads World In Education, But Has Lagged Behind In Dealing Justice To Negro In Courts of Law
Lake Junaluska, N. C.—America has led the world in a practical demonstration that the Negro is educable, but has lagged behind England in giving to the Negro justice in courts of law and in developing his economic future, according to Dr. W. W. Alexander, of Atlanta, Ga.

To a southerner of Virginia, James H. Dillard, an Episcopal layman, according to Dr. Alexander, must go the credit for introducing into British possession in Africa an educational system based on the one done of the Dr. Dillard, as done of the Jean Slater board, a philanthropic foundation devoted to the promotion of elevation of Negro education in the South, was a member of the commission sent to Africa to develop an educational system laid out so system based on what had been done in the South in the field of Negro education
While America has showed statesmanship in the field of Negro education, Dr. Alexander declared her standing: was not so good in other fields and caree examples hynchises, the failure of jurisprudence, the murder of crimes against Negro women, and passage of laws in some states prohibiting Negroes from engaging in barbering, making it illegal for Negroes to work on construction jobs except in Negro communities and otherwise by defining what a barbering firm can do, tampering their economic progress.
The speaker deplored the use of the race question to inflame public opinion in all sorts of controversies where opinion is disputed. His political partner, did it, he said, and added that even in ecclesiastical controversies the Negro is dragged in and often made an issue of him, he doesn't belong in the question at all.
North Carolina was praised by Dr. Alexander for progress that the state has made in NEG education. During the past year, according to Dr. Alexander, North Carolina made a commitment to NEG education as on both white and Negro education 25 years ago. An intertie angel was thrown on the racial discussion when the speaker was asked what he thought of Mrs. Hoover's tea party to lift the NEG congressman from Chicago Dr. Alexander said he thought the only harm that might result from the incident was the political use which will be made of it by white and Negro politicians of the state, usually do harm when they seize upon the race question and make a political issue of it. It will be
Wm. M. Kelly To Be Campaign Manager For Delany for Congress
Wm. M. Kelly To Be Campaign Manager For Delany for Congress
William M. Kelley, editor of the New York Amsterdam News, will manage the campaign of Hubert T. Delany for Congress from the 21st Congressional district of New York. "To my mind" Mr. Kelley wrote Mr. Delany in accepting the offer, "the success of your campaign depends, primarily upon increasing the number of Negro voters in Harlem by about 10,000," which is approximately the number by Johnson College lost to the late Royal H Weller, white Democrat, last year.
He stated in an interview that there are several times that number of eligible Negro citizens not registered in the districts affected. United States who is an Assistant United States Senator, who is an Assistant Southern district of New York, is the third candidate the Republicans have designated for Congress from the Twenty-first district, and both former candidates were defeated at the polls mainly through regros to register and vote. At the time, Mr. Kelley said, "for the Negro voters to demonstrate to the Republican party, that they are serious in their desire to see a Negro elected to Congress from New York," Campaign headquarters are to be opened within the next few days fortunate, he said, if politicians in the South yield to the temptation of making the Hoover dinner party a political issue of the next to the negro of great political economic and social issues which the economy ought to be studying.
With reference to the Heaven
DePriest incident, Dr. Alexander said he thought four things ought to be considered: namely, that Mrs. Hoover as a Quaker holds as part of her religion the equality of human beings; in the next place, that as the wife of the President her guest list is largely automatic; she doesn't whom she shall be when the president of Liberia, a black Negro comes to America, it is her duty to entertain him. In the third place, she did not invite anybody to meet the wife of the Negro congressman who did not want to go, and finally, that what she did has not changed any opinions in the South. It is significant only as politicians should be discussing great matters of state. No use to make a fuss about it." was his summing up the matter.

Egans, Island Creek, senior grand warden, Thomas H Waters, Baltimore, junior grand warden; George H Fitzhugh, Baltimore, grand treasurer; George Epstein, Baltimore, grand reorder and secretary to the Burlund Dund.
Hagerstown was selected as the next year's place of convening. The business meetings were held in the administration building of Princess Elizabeth II and the instance of Dr. Thomas H. Kait, principal, newly elected deputy grand master and host, the entire institution was placed at the disposal of the delegates and their friends. Metropolitan M. E. Church, the Rev Robert W. Cheers, pastor, was staged the memorial service for the 57 members who died during the craft's year. The Rev, Ernest Lyon, pastor of Ames M. Cheers, Minute, and Liberian Counsel-George, delivered an appropriate sermon. A parade and public meeting took place on Monday. Recognition was given the Communication by the State when State Senator Robert C. Graham addressed the assembly, and the governor gave its welcome through its mayor, Dr. George W. Colborn Jr.
Citizens Welcome Delegates To Church Of Christ Convention
The delegates attending the tenth annual convention of the Church of Christ of the Apostolic Refuge Church of Christ, 52–50 West 133rd street, were officially welcomed to the city Monday evening at a public meeting in that church. Addresses of welcome were received by the Rev. D. Wesley Nolls, pastor of Emanuel A. M. E. Church, on behalf of the Ministerial Alliance; Alderman Freed R. Moore on behalf of the city, and by Attorney Francis E. Rivers on behalf of the legal profession. Robert C. Lawson, founder and chief apostle, and several of the visiting clergymen. The convention will continue through next week.
William Brown of Wellington, N. C., is visiting in New York and stopping with Mr. Taylor of 160 West 136th street. While here they will write calls to the Ace office.
Baltimore, Md.—"Benjamin Banneker, a Negro Genius of his day, who won recognition for his ability as a mathematician," is the title of the article in the last "Sunday Sun," Baltimore's most influential paper.
It is apparent that the "Sun's" editors, feeling that the paper is received as Baltimore's own, gives a meet-up to recognition to Baltimore, regain the honor of honor, hence in the advance notice of this issue, Banneker was featured in the words of Thomas Jefferson, when, in acknowledging the receipt of Banneker's complicated astronomical calculations, 1792, he wrote: "Nobody wishes more than I do to see such proofs as you exhibit that nature has given to our black brethren talents equal to those of the other colors of man."
Writes Miss Levan. "One hundred and eighty years ago, just ten miles from Baltimore, there lived a little black boy, who trudged willingly to school, finding reading and writing to be enjoyable, but always and increasingly indescribable.
"Even when the little boy grew older, and had stopped school to work with his father on the farm, he continued to play with nunser children, and miles around came to him with problems they could not solve; soon white planters made it their practice to come, too, when things arithmetical bothered them. Banneker's Amanack earned him a commission, esteem, so that he was invited by the commissioners to assist in planning and surveying the city of Washington. D. C. Books can yet be written on how many of Washington's buildings that were cast by Banneker's brain.
"When Banneker was 30," continues Miss Levin, "he contrived to build a clock, a most excellent and amazing tumpiece. It ran on a clock, and the clock was the achievement all was the more remarkable in view of the fact that Banneker had never met one in his life, but constructed it from the memory of a watch he had seen in a store. He was only whitted out of hard wood, but so successfully that the clock sounded the hours unfailingly. He used to say that his greatest difficulty was in effecting corresponding motions of the hour, minute, and second, so that he be the first truly American clock, made entirely with American materials by an American."
In fairness to the Rev George F. Bragg, rector of St James P. E. Church here, and editor of "The Church Advocate", it must be stated that in his book "Men of Maryland," published in 1914, the author has a chapter treating on the subject of this article.

POLITICAL HIGH EXPLOSIVE.
The New York Times printed a lengthy editorial one day last week, in which it indulged in some interesting speculations as to "The Negro's Political Future." The most important feature of this discussion was the conclusion reached by the Times writer, that "High explosive lies on the route of the Negro to the civil rights to which, if this democracy means what it pretends, he is entitled." This is considerable of an admission to proceed from a newspaper controlled by Adolph S. Ochs, a former Tennesseean, and whose paper has invariably espoused the cause of antebellum Bourbonism.
The basis of the editorial in question was the advice given by Representative De Priest to the Negro voters of Harlem, to vote solidly for a district leader of their own race, as contrasted with an article written by James Weldon Johnson, in the American Mercury for September, in which political division of the race was advocated: It was admitted that the difference between the two counselors was not absolute, as Mr. Johnson was dealing with a general situation while Mr. De Priest had a specific case in view. The Times writer believed that the Congressman would probably not challenge the course advised by Mr. Johnson, as appended to political conditions in the South. A Negro "bloc" was pronounced dangerous to public order, as it "would bring harmful reactions upon the Negroes themselves." The Times writer seems to have interpreted the spirit of Mr. De Priest's advice more intelligently than most of the writers for the daily papers, in that he expressed the belief that his speech in Harlem does not indicate that he would advocate Negro solidarity in voting at all times. That is the way that we have understood Mr. De Priest's advice on the subject of political organization. He has enjoined the voters of his race to organize so that they may work effectively within party lines, to secure the nomination of Congressmen and other candidates for political offices, where their numbers justify the demand for elective representation.
This is the character of the contest that is now going on in Harlem. In two, of the districts the Negro voters believe that their voting strength entitles them to the nominations for Congress, the Assembly and the Board of Aldermen, as well as the executive member of the County Committee, or district leader. As they are entitled, "if this democracy means what it pretends," as the Times writer predicated, they are testing their right to these positions by fighting strictly within party lines to assert their right to representation through men of their own choice. A similar group would have the right to make the same kind of effort to obtain representation in the Democratic party, if that was the party of their choice. There is no Negro bloe involved in a contest of this sort, but merely an effort to secure representation along party lines. Our system of politics is not favorable to the development of bloes or parties based on racial lines. Racial groups may seek representation through candidates of their own, but the candidates, if elected, must truly represent their full group of constituents, without bias of race or color.
We do not think that any danger from a Negro party may be apprehended as the tendency of the race in politics leans more strongly at the present time toward division than to a concentration of its voting strength. As to the other danger described by the Times writer, that with the split of the Negro vote in the South, "he will cease to receive there even the small consideration he now enjoys." we must again disagree. If the division of the white Democrats proceeds along present lines, it will tend to create a demand for the help of Negro votes among both groups, with the result of improving the status of that class of voters.
There may be high explosive on the route to civil or political rights, but that is one of the hazards of the situation, which may be averted by careful steering.
A MILITANT CHURCH EDITOR:
When a certain church member informed the militant editor of The Advance, a weekly publication issued in the interest of the Abyssinian Baptist Church, that he considered the editorial page "too full of politics" the former admitted the fact, but pertinently rejoined, "could he choose more appropriate subjects than the politics of the districts in which ninety-nine per cent of our readers live, move and have their being?" His added that the reasons for making some of the articles on the editorial page political was to inform the church members of what is happening in the Nineteenth and Twenty-first districts. That they may know of the men who are fighting to preserve the rights that are theirs; fighting for principles which underlie freedom and manhood.
In keeping with his determination to continue this fight, The Advance editor, in his leading editorial for last week, marked the progress of the primary campaign under the optimistic headline, "The Invincible Three," with sublime confidence in ultimate victory. We quote him again as a further index to the spirit that animates the voters of this district:
Rivers, Moore and Fillmore—these are the invincible three who have dared to carry the fight for control of the Nineteenth Assembly District this year. They have bombarded his breastworks of election district captains and divided them. They have stormed his organization of trickery and deception and exposed them. They have mined his front line trenches of Negro satire and have cut him off from his base of operation and stopped his supply of Negro votes. They have shut him up in his citadel of lies and hypocrisy. They have laid seige to every inch of his stolen and ill-gotten territory. He must escape, his total destruction is inevitable.
Grenthal's plea of what he has done to promote rent laws will fall on dumb ears for it has been exploded. What he did, when efforts might have been effective, was stifling the opposition for his prestige on the Rules Committee of the Legislature and on the Central Republican Committee. It was given to him by Negroes, he has used it to promote the welfare of Grenthal; and from him we propose to Negroes, and from Negroes, a man who will listen when we speak. For the last time Grenthal has sat on the Rules Committee. For the last time he has misrepresented Negroes on the Republican County Committee. For the last time he has plundered the funds of Negroes to own. For the last time he has failed to properly account for contributions to campaign funds. And for the last time he has bought a few stupid Negroes and forced them to sell the interest of a whole group. Negroes have honored and unsuig. River, Moose and Fillmore—these are the invincible three thru which we are going to do it.
As we have pointed out before, it is this spirit of belief in the invincible quality of the justice of their cause, that will bring about the political emancipation of the race and establish their right to elective representation. But this spirit must be expressed in the material form of votes in the forthcoming primaries in order to lead to solid results. No effort should be relaxed until those results are obtained and clinched at the regular election in November. Eternal vigilance and unremitting effort still remain as part of the price to be paid for liberty.
BETTER NURSING TRAINING
The annual convention of the National association of Colored Graduate Nurses, held in New York City last week, was the occasion of directing attention to the importance of the nursing profession to better health conditions among the race.
The annual convention of the National Association of Colored Graduate Nurses, held in New York City last week, was the occasion of directing attention to the importance of the nursing profession to better health conditions among the race. It was stated that the profession of nursing had grown from one-graduate nurse in 1873 to twenty thousand graduates in 1928, with an aggregate of two hundred thousand practicing nurses. Graduation courses for nurses and the first national placement bureau in this country for colored members of the profession were announced as features to be added to the program of Lincoln Hospital, in the Bronx.
The need for more Negro nurses in the interest of, promoting the public health and spreading health education, was emphasized by Dr. Payton F. Anderson, of the Harlem Committee of the New York Tuberculosis and Health Association. While declaring that tuberculosis was higher among Negroes than any other race group, he insisted that there is nothing racially inherent in Negroes to cultivate this disease. It was largely due to economic reasons and education by public health nurses could do much to cut the mortality rate. One obstacle pointed out was to get the average patient to appreciate the seriousness of dealing with incipient disease before it gets a foothold in the system.
Miss Belle Davis, executive secretary of the National Health Circle for Colored People, told the convention that ignorance, superstition and fatalism kill more members of the race annually than tuberculosis. She urged the necessity for more training schools in the South as a means of overcoming this indifference to health. She argued that the finest thing the white race could do would be to help educate the Negro along the lines of health the same as whites. Self-interest also demanded this, as no matter how
far apart the races might be, disease germs would travel from one to another. Low salaries and lack of opportunity are among the drawbacks to the work of Negro nurses in the South, the salaries paid the latter averaging, but one-third of those paid white nurses. This neglect of health conditions was attributed not so much to unfairness as to a lack of interest in the subject, as similar neglect was found among the whites. use of cosmetics, due to the fact that young and pleasing ance can obtain be tions than those their age whatever is While business real account for a large this increase in the cosmetics and the all sorts of devices
Health education was specifically emphasized as the remedy for improving conditions among Negroes, as among other groups of the population, and this education can best be given by the public health nurses who form so useful a branch of progressive civic government. The importance of the nursing profession as an instrument of improving the public health was thoroughly demonstrated during the proceedings of this convention, which justified the plea for better nurse training.
PRACTICAL POLITICS EXPOUND ED.
When Representative Oscar DePriest spoke to three thousand Negroes at the Abyssinian Baptist Church one night last week, they heard an earnest exposition of the methods of practical politics expounded by a high-master of the art from such a center as Chicago. Practical politics was defined as the best method for improving the condition of the race in the United Statets. Mr. De Priest's political theories are readily reduced to practical action, as was demonstrated by the epigranamatic manner in which he aimed to bring about the results sought by the promoters of the meeting, which was held under the auspices of the Moore-Rivers Campaign Committee.
Some of the bulletthike sentences fired at his auditors were couched in such terse sentences as the following:
If your district leader is a white man, pitch him out.
You have a jimmy with which to better your condition in your 'vote'. See it.
Don't be the elimination' change it through practical politics.
Pull every door bell; register every 'voter', get him to the polls.
The little fellow is always right When a Negro doesn't want to elect a Negro there is either fealty or dirty money behind him. Don't you realize that no man can represent you, or that who has been jimmedore the way you have?
Men only deserve political representation when they can take it. Take it—now.
There is a wealth of practical political wisdom in these few pointed sentences that would well be used as a primer for political training. How many of the strong of three thousand people who heard them, took them to heart and heeded them, remains to be seen. It is well enough to go to political meetings and hear such sentiments as Mr. De Priest and the other speakers enunciated, but it is an entirely different proposition to get out the practical policies enjoined, and yet it is that sort of action that is necessary to win primaries and to carry elections. Voters must be enrolled and registered before they are eligible to take part in a primary or an election.
It is well to have the practical side of politics emphasized by a postmaster of the craft such as Mr. De Priest, in order that the voters may appreciate the responsibilities that demand practical work and converted action.

LIPSTICKS AND BEAUTY PAR
LORS.
The Health Commissioner of New York City recently authorized an investigation of beauty parlors, which revealed many alarming conditions to those' who are ignorant of the dangers that attend
The Health Commissioner of New York City recently authorized an investigation of beauty parlors, which revealed some alarming conditions to those 'who are ignorant of the dangers that attend the road to beautification. Nine varieties of lipsticks, selected at random from more than ninety offered for sale, were found to contain poison. Benzol, a substance highly irritating to the skin, was found in each lipstick analyzed. Hair dyes, reducing products and other preparations, warranted to enhance the personal charms of the user, were also found to contain poisons, with polysyllabic names such as paraphenylenediamine. The name in itself is enough to give one a chill, but its use may cause blindness or serious illness.
Of the fifteen hundred beauty parlors located in Manhattan, one-third were found to be operating without a license, required by the Board of Health. Others were not located at the address, given in the permit. Fraudulent advertising was alleged as being practiced by others, in offers to improve the natural attractions; or lack of such qualities by gullible femininity. Some beauty parlors were found to be using electric lamps, for sun tan or beauty treatment, which was said to be attended by dangerous results. Others displayed cards of physicians claiming to improve facial appearance by the use of the surgeon's knife, the fees being split by arrangement with the proprietors. A great increase was reported in the
use of cosmetics, due in part to the fact that women of young and pleasing appearance can obtain better positions than those who look their age whatever it may be. While business reasons may account for a large part of this increase in the sale of cosmetics and the resort to all sorts of devices for aiding to improve the personal appearance of the customers, the chief reason for the use of the hundreds of preparations now sold is attributed to the ancient one embodied in feminine vanity. For this cause the sex suffers and grows strong, if not always beautiful.
Many of the flesh-reducing products were ordered withdrawn from sale, when it was found that their contents were injurious to health. Cases were also prepared for the prosecution, of those local manufacturers, whose products were found to contain poison. In the meantime the beauty parlors which have not yet fallen under the ban of the Health Department, will continue to do a rushing trade and the feminine users of the lipstick will decorate their countenances with varied shades of carmine and crimson, equally defiant of the colors of nature and the possibility of poisoning.

Dr. Tobias Offers Aid In Race Leader Fight
Dear Mr. Moore:
I am sending to Mr. Michigan C. Brown, treasurer of the Moore-Rivers Campaign Committee, my check for S10 to aid in the effort you selected. Merlan, and to celebrate Frank E. Rivera, the Assembly in place of Abraham Greuthal. My only regret is that my contribution be to as small as it is.
As a citizen of New York who believes that every opportunity should be given to members of the race to develop leadership, I am heartily in favor of electing New York office officers. But in the case of Rivers against Grenhal, I do not have to make my choice upon racial groups alone for I look upon Mr. Rivers as in every sense superior to the present incumbent. In your case, it goes without saying that your record of service and loyalty to the interests of people entitles you to succeed yourself. I want also to go on record as heartily favoring Col Fillmore for the party leadership in place of Grenhal, and Hubert C. Delaney for Congress. We shall be out of the city a great deal between now and September 17. I want you to know that for the little time that I am here I am at the service of the campaign committee for whatever I can do. With best wishes for a successful campaign and ultimate victory, I
Sincerely yours,

Baptist Church and Economic Progress
Member of the Board, N. Y. State S. S. and B. Y. P. U. Conventions The religious and Christian aspect of economic progress as 'pertaining' to our case, the Negro seems to our case, the economic life that would deprive 15,000,000 citizens of their share in the material good of our great commonwealth, America. Opposition to the advancement of the economic life of the Nation is directed at the morale of our group and as such is a form of human oppression. It therefore claims the attention of the Christian community to its greater democracy and to abolish human oppression. As a matter of Christian' policy, as a matter of self-defense, the energy of the Christian faith, Episcopal, Presbyterian, or what not, should mass their forces and cast, the entire weight into the field in an effort to secure, a Christian adjustment of the economic and political wrong that oppresses the age.
We are about to witness the setups of two National Conventions of Negro Baptists. These organization's mission is to provide a ship of about $400,000, and have direct contact with half of the entire setups of 15,000,000 persons in a religious way only. More than 2,000 delegates will "attend these convention," and the purpose is to spend $150,000 in transportation and general expense." The convention will consist of several sermons, a lecture or two, a few hundred dollars for education, a few hundred dollars for missions, the publishing house, and other causes, and they will rise and go their several homes. This form of national organization was added in the years ago to lose the respect of an intelligent body of the church today. The 1929 sessions should mark the, turning point of our national work from the minor position that we now occupy in the church, to the mass life of not only the 4,000,000 Baptists, but the race in general.
The National Baptist Convention is prepared to take up the work of combating economic oppression, far more than among us at this time, because of, first, its large numerical strength, and second, the two large publishing houses, worth more than a million dollars, among us in other thing lacking, and that is efficient, militant, progressive leadership. The dividing of our national convention into two bodies have service to enlarge the work, but the larger leadership could have made was to establish a million dollar publishing plant in Nashville, Tenn., a southern city, and within the imminent reach of a large house. If we had consulted an efficiency expert we would have
been pointed out the advantages of centers like New York, Philadelphia and Chicago as the most practical site.
If our publishing house were located in Harlem we could print daily papers for the Negro communities in New York, Philadelphia, Boston and Baltimore. Our fourth hour dollar plant was located in Chicago, we could print daily papers for the Negro communities of Chicago, St. Louis, Detroit and Toledo. The daily press work for the New York district alone, if properly managed, should not the convention be a hundred thousand dollars annually.
There will be no creditable united movement among Negroes for economic and political advancement until we have the presses with which to produce them. Herein lies the great handicap to a purely Negro community, we have not the means to educate the masses in the desired course.
The Negro of today is a reading generation, but with all of this we have nothing to read that gives us insight. But our Nation has been ventions with their publishing houses can bring to the Negro journalism and literature that will inspire a self-consciousness, and add to our cooperation of our resources. Here we are a Christian and human responsibility, that calls to the church. Will she answer? Let us hope that the 1929 sessions of our Great National Convention will establish a joint industrial commission, one that will be empowered to employ the entire forces of the Church in the right-to-clear adjustment of the political and economic conditions among Negroes.
Dr. Nichols Speaks
The following statement was made by the Rev. Dr. D Ward Nichols, pastor of Emanuel A. M. E. Church, in the weekly Bulletin published by that church for Sunday. The pastor wishes to call the action of the members and friends living in the 19th Assembly District to the fact that a fight is being waged between the forces of righteousness and certain unsurprulous politicians. Honorable R. McCormack, has district as AlderAin, as opposed because of his contention that a Negro should be the leader of this district, which is made up largely of Negroes. Read The New York Age, and in September vote for R. River and Pitilone. All race-loving Negroes will vote this race.

Heflin vs. DePriest
(From N. Y. Daily News.)
Oscar De Priest is a colored man and a congressman from a Chicago district. Since his election he has made many speeches. Ms. De Priest said that De Priest is out to win full equality with white people for colored people in the United States. Senator Heflin of Alabama needs no introduction. His latest is a threat to throw De Priest out of the Senate. Senator Heflin congressional barber shop if De Priest is accorded white privileges in those places. Heflin is said in Birmingham, Ala., to have mentioned a punch to De Priest now, as being worth 50,000 when Heflin comes up for re-election. There is no excuse for such in-flammatory talk. If Heflin made the remark, Alabama voters should repudiate him, whether he carries out his idiotic threat or not. He does not mean that Alabama voters many people will cheer any Heflin attacks on De Priest. Most of

COMMENTS BY THE AGE EDITORS ON THE SAYINGS OF OTHER EDITORS
Considering the need of relief for low paid employees of Uncle Sam the Washington Eagle offered this plea in their-belief:
Despite the fact that this paper pointed out last Fall that the pay of colored employees of the Federal Government was on an average standard for decent standards worked out by the U. S. Department of Labor itself, the rumor is that "low paid employees will receive no consideration in the bill now being prepared." This unconomic procedure is known to Mr. Hoover. The reason advanced is a poor one; that the low paid employees now receive more than they could get in outside employment, is no argument. This uneconomic procedure and higher paid Federal employees would not be entitled to what they receive.
Of course the facts are that most of the low-paid employees are color people who live in an area of promotion regardless of training, efficiency or merit.
What is termed "An Interesting Situation," in Virginia politics, is lucidly set forth by the Rochmond Planet as follows:
Hon. John Garland Garland has been nominated as Democratic candidate for Governor in the Democratic primary last Tuesday by a majority of more than 70,000. His total vote is the nearest opponent, G. W. Wallapp, 28,762. The total number of white voters in the State is estimated to be approximately 30,000. Of this number, the largest vote cast in the election has been approximately 305,000.
This would leave the outlook for November in which the Independent anti-Semitic Democrat will figure to be exceedingly doubtful. The Hampshire and support Dr. William Mosley the outlook for the election of H.
Any person would be willing to help a child with a disability, but win higher status, by fair means.
Henry Ford has pointed the way to economic prosperity by paying men the highest possible wages, knowing that they will distribute the resources and circulate the products thereof.
Already the refusal to pay men and women who do the arksome work of the world, has lowered the standards of cleanliness in the workplace. If people were employed to maintain the standards of cleanliness reached and demanded before the World War II, if adequate protection were provided for stores, warehouses and employees of unemployed would be absorbed and our general prosperity both in goods and welfare would be greater.
There are already too many high-salaried people in the military of low-salaried ones for their credited success.
The government can not afford to engage in penny wise, pound foolish economy. No Federal salary can cover the army of low-salaried ones for their credited success.

The government can not afford to engage in penny wise, pound foolish economy. No Federal salary can cover the army of low-salaried ones for their credited success.
The fact is that Uncle Sam has been and is a nig�gard employer of labor, blindly aithering in many instances to pay schedules set many years ago, without allowing for the higher cost of living.
The Cleveland Gazette put up a strong fight for the adoption of the Charter Amendment to restore civic government and get rid of City Manager Hopkins, who was charged with color discrimination. Its last shot before the election read in part:
Our people of Cleveland haven't a thing in the world to thank Hopkins or the plan for. On the contrary, we have many good practices in the city in power to help defeat both him and the manager plan, as noted elsewhere in this paper. Both self and race respect force all local members to take responsibility to Tuesday next and cast their votes for the Charter Amendment in order to get rid of Colorline City Manager Hopkins and the manager plan and help the city in the federal plan of government which will enable them to elect a mayor and a councilman from each ward, thus returning to them the important right they lost when the miserable man adopted, five and a half years ago. While the city management plan was devised to put business efficiency in municipal administration, it has failed to work satisfactorily in many places, of which Cleveland appears to be the most conspicuous.
"Sun Tan" was the subject of the following interesting disquisition on epidermical coloration in the editorial columns of the Boston Chronicle, which said:
"Day by day in every way they get tan and tanter," has been frowned on by Chicago "experts," who evidently are alarmed that all America is being "done brown." The risk is great—a month or so ago white people who had been tanned were given the air at a Washington hotel, though they were Negroes. Protein apologies had to be made.
On the other hand several Negroes have boldly attended places they had been denied, the management not having the nerve to ask if they are Negroes or whites. Either they are live in the harmed biothabitates they are up against it. The statement of the Chicago experts may be misopaganda for as Dr. George H. Bigelow, Commissioner of Public Health for Massachusetts, states that "if the facts were consistent, Eliot would have been fat, sun tan, sent out by the American Electronic Research Association of Chicago, every Negro in the North would have died by now."
From an artistic point of view, the mellowing of the colors of such those people live down South—though it is a question whether many white or many colored Americans anywhere really want, social equality.
De Priest is hailing the prejudices which Heflin sums up in his big, bellowing body. By doing a big, bellowing body, he is prejudiced and injuring his own cause. The colored people already are going ahead so fast that De Priest's cries of persecution sound rather paludic. They can win more votes. They can win more congress and legislature organized congress and legislature from colored sections. De Priest should help that work along. There is little hope for Heflin, Heflin will not who can learn, before he makes a colored Heflin of himself.

What is termed "An Interesting Situation," in Virginia politics, is ludicly set forth by the Richmond Planet as follows:
Hon. John Garland Pollard has been nominated as Democrat candidate for Governor in the Democrat primary, by a plurality of more than 70,000, his total vote is 100,000 and that of his nearest opponent, Hon. G. Walter Mapp, 28,762. The total number of votes the State is estimated to be approximate is 100,000. Of this number, the largest vote cast by any election has been approximately 305,000.
He would leave the outlook for November in which the independent anti-Smith Democrat will go be exceedingly doubtful. If the Mason vote of 28,000 should split and support Dr. William Moseley Brown, his candidate for the election of John Mason, he will be gloomily indeed. The total summary vote was approximately 145,000.
In these people will stick to their moral pledges, then Hon. John Garland Pollard will be the next Gov. Richard As the matter stands, colored citizens will have an opportunity to make their political power felt at the polls either for or against the regular Democratic nominators Which shall it be?
The fact that the Republican party in Virginia has gone Lilywise, has freed the Negro voters from any obligation, moral or otherwise, to vote for its candidates. This will lead to the situation all the more interesting.
Commenting on some recent editorials appearing in leading white journals of Tennessee, the Nashville Globe gave vent to the following terms of commendation:
When southern white men come flat-footedly and condemn laziness and when southern white men through their respective organization, fight and fair play, and when a Southern Governor carries out the oath of his office in protecting a Negro accused of a crime, it is encouraging to live here in the beautiful southland.
We, congratulate the editor for being fair and honest. We compliment the Governor of Alabama for doing his whole duty, and we condemn crime or every nature and be punished by the crime should be punished by the law, which is made to cover his case.
The editorial in the Chattanooga Times on "Women and Lynching" is being reproduced in this issue, as is also an editorial in the Chattanooga News, under the caption "Alabama Has a Governor." We wish that every white man in the South would read these two editorials and ask the God of the nounsce to make this a land of the free and a home of the brave, and that he might offer himself as an instrument in God's hands to help such that a day would not be far-distant.
While it is to be feared that the class of Southern whites who make the mob element seldom read editorials, such pronouncements cannot fail to build up and encourage public sentiment against lawlessness. That Would be a substantial gain.
Indulging in the dissemination of "Hot Weather Philosoph," the Denver Star printed the following editable reflections.
Cultivating the philosophic mind is perhaps the best antidote to the discomforts of hot weather. There is a coming summer, and it is certain that grumbling about them will not help. No doubt advice on this point will be more or less wasted — it all depends on how you be none the less worth while. One disadvantage is inevitable in a climate that ranges over so many degrees of temperature as ours. Our climate is the year which are not tropical. If we were nearer the equator, our houses, our hours of work and all else; rest would be arranged accordingly, to tell us how to best be on temporary expedients.
With electric fans and other devices to keep us cool indoor the main things to be considered are clothing and food. In respect to the former we have learned a good deal within the last quarter of a century. Women always dress better for a long time men were not so comfortable. Now the thinnest of clothing is available for everyone. It is, but one thing, fortunately low in price. It is a man's own fault if he dress uncomfortably. The practice of "bundling up" for that matter is as undesirable in winter as that in summer, especially as the heat that public buildings
In the matter of food, Americans still have much to learn. Many persons engaged in indoor meals eat too heartily all the year around. But in summer, they lightly sit in the kitchen and feed the kind of food needed—fresh fruits and vegetables. Still, when it is said and done, the philosophic mind is the best specifie. Watching the thermometer is the worst preparation for bearing the burden and heat of the meal and fretting it away, but the mental suggestion to the physical distress is it easier to care that the busy suffer less from the heat than the idle. The reason is that they occupy their minds.
Evidently the Colorado editor has taken seriously the succession of pajamas as out-door garments for masculine wear during the heard term, for which innovation a North Carolina editor went to jail. So far as New York is concerned the pajama movement tailed-to-please.

St. Paul Baptist Church
To hear Dr. T. W. Larsen was a distinct pleasure to all who were present at last Sunday's services. With a rare insight into the meaning of the Old Testament story of Daniel the Lord, Dr. Larsen preached a helpful and spring sermon. He exhorted his hearers to the use of real prayer, a practice of that superior faith that was Daniels, and the living on a clean and righteous life. In the evening he kept his audience laughing and praying, learning loving, as he vividly portrayed the suffering he explained the answer given to Christ when he wanted to know what his disciples thought of Him, Dr. Larsen has a charming gift of storytelling which allows him to mimic him, pathos and faithful characterization with reverent spirit for the Scriptures that him him a remarkable preacher. He offering us the day was $7,000.
Roy W H. A Booker has been working ardently with the others of the church to make the I remember day a success. It is hoped that the members will join hardly in the praise service and continue next Sunday. Strangers are always welcomed, and will and Paul the church with the humble teeking.

The Rev. A. T. Bennett-Haines, formerly of St. Paul's Church, Knightsbridge, London, England, now in this country, was the preacher last Sunday morning at St. Peter's Westchester Square Church, 2511 Westchester avenue, the Bronx, and his announced tone, "Hallelujah," which had its first show in New York on Tuesday, August 20.
The English minister told the white congregation that Negro civilization will claim a place in world affairs, but that its pattern, good or bad, will depend upon the earth," Acts 1.8 formed the basis for the remarks of the Rev. W. N. Hill, the morning services.
The eleventh session, in capacity and the vast receipt of the message with much outward expressions of approval. Dr. Holt is the pulp during the vacation of the pastor, Dr Edward Ernest Tyler. The message was demeanor, fluent and elegant manner, was logical and of a high spiritual order.
In the afternoon the Sunday school met the Superintendent, J. D. Nixon was in charge. At the evening hour, the Rev W. W. Nixon was given a practical sermon basing his remarks on St. Matthew 10:36. He stressed the point that, "A man's foes shall be he of his own household." Among the foes of a man a son or a brother, a sister, husband, wife and friend, when they see us go wrong and will not correct us, for they are the closest to us. All should seek to live honorable, upright, moral, Christian life and not be those close to us for so by living we will not furnish bad examples and will be able to correct one with authority and truth. Dr. Holt closed with the thought that self is the greatest foe when activities are not rightly directed. Dr. Holt will call the pulpit Sunday morning and evening.
Nazarene Cong. Church
The effects of the vacation period are still keenly felt in nearly every department of Nazarene Church. Two-thirds of the teachers in the Sunday school are in this position, excluding the combination of two or more classes into one. Mrs. A. A. Miller, of 658 Herlumber street, is still in St. John's Hospital, recovering from an operation or acute appendicitis. Mrs. Miller was stricken while in Chicago, but managed to make the trip, and immediately after the operation, she is expected to be out this week.
The pastor, Dr H. H. Proctor, was in Boston last week, moving on to Providence this week. He will return the last of the week, and will preach at each service next Sunday. In the morning his subject will be, the Human Appetite Holy Holiday, the evening service he will speak on the Bread of Life.
Thomas J. Bell, social worker and associate pastor, preached at the morning service last Sunday His subject was "The Highway to Toughest is the gate, and narrow is the way that leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it." Mr Bell gave, as the reason why it is found by so few, first, that the way is often industrial, and two ways often run parallel and close together. Second, the way requires severe self discipline, and is often attended by prent difficulties, third, the rewards are often far apart and not easily discerned and amid the chaos he makes in life. Dr. Mary C. Cushman, a missionary under the American Board to the natives in Portuguese, West Africa, was a visitor of the Union Church and Christian Endeavor service in the evening, and gave a thriving and inspiring talk on the in that field and the people there. Miss Phelma Brown was in charge of the meeting.

life and precept of the white race. Declaring that Negroes have a rare capacity for unselfish friendship of the sort that is not affected by circumstance nor conditioned upon possessions or station, he pointed out that responsibility for set standards of life was largely upon church people. Failure of our civilization to realize its responsibility, he warned, will certainly bring retribution for its error.
-Future In White's Hands.
"Inevitably," he said, "the *NEGR* race will take its place in civilization. The kind of place it will take will very largely depend upon us. Rightly or wrongly these people are learning from us. Just what are they learning? That is the rub. How to hate? How to kill? How to get the best of others by sharp practice? how to bully or to acquire wealth regardless of principle; to outwear pleasure before all things? How to called Christians may bicker and squabble and defy the Prince of Peace? - Alas, too often that is true.
"There is the brighter side of the picture, the lesson of men like Livingstone and Wilberforce, of missionaries who gave up all to love and die among them. The influence of Christian planters and teachers who all too never the But they are all too never the Bible declares that, that which we sow, we shall also reap. Now nothing is more 're' than that. Nothing. Unless the white world can show something better than the horrors of history, it will suffer ere long, retribution in kind. When missionaries achieve their destiny they will practice what they have learned from us.

"It is not only for our ownakes that we need seek peace and ensue it, but for the security of theworld's future. The horror of thelast great war would be as nouthat we need to oppress and exploitContinue to oppress and exploitpeople and nothing could presentthe future oppression of ourposterity by the same token.

a good opportunity to make careful study of the Congressman. He was a man past middle age, with a face of bull dog strength and tenacity of purpose, surmounted by being fairly bristled with aggressiveness, a man who could do great things for his race if handled in the right way. I was curious as to just what sort of a message he would bring to the large assembled audience. Do Priest proved himself to be an interesting and versatile speaker and presented his views in a way which left no question as to how he felt toward the white man. One of the biggest points brought out by the speaker was the need of a stronger organization among "the colored people because, as he said" "organization means strength," and another point was the necessity of sending another man to Washington to be the really going man, be of any real value to his race as a Congressman.
Some of the things he said were a bit overdrawn and some of his finer points were missed by the muffling of his phrases, but on the whole his speech was a good one much appreciated by the audience. After all, Mr. DePriest is very human, as was shown by his agitation when the intrepid young photographer set off the flash light bomb behind him. Mr. Freed R. Moore, our Olderman, the next speaker, AlderMoore is the direct antithesis of Congressman DePriest. In well chosen, concise sentences, forcibly presented in a well modulated voice, Mr. Moore told of the many, things that he had done and was still doing for the race during and after the man. The traffic lights, the new administration building for the Armory, the new Police Station, etc. The strange part of it is that Mr Moore obtained these things for his race through the cooperation of a white man. Mr. DePriest aid in his speech that he do not need a white man or his money."
Mr. Moore is a diplomat; he believes in harmony and co-operation and does not let the white man know just how he feels toward him. Quoting Mayor Walker at the Golden Wedding Anniversary of Mr. Moore, "I did not want him," Mr. Moore says a Possible man, until I had known him a year. Mr. Moore did not tell one half the things that he had done for his race even before he was elected Alderman. One of the standing out things is the appearance of so many of our Negro men and women in the theatrical world and who are becoming headline on the news and loyalty of the Hon. Fred R. Moore to the Ethiopian Art School. I am signing up for Fred R. Moore, and I hope that every other right minded citizen, who stands for clean politics and a better Harlem will do the same.

By JAMES H. HOGANS
A QUEEN OF THE KITCHEN
Alas! as the little son of a friend exclaimed when he was recently reminded that school would soon begin again, this week will mark the end of the 1929 vacation season. That is, it will mark the end for those of us whose pocket-books are of definite limitations. By the latter part of next week, those of us who always manage to eke out enough spare change from our daily requirements during the year to indulge in a few weeks vacation in summer, will have returned to our respective vocations and environments. And until vacation time comes again, we shall be telling our friends of the nice places we visited, the lovely people we met, and the corking good times we had while on our spree of play and pleasure.
As one of those who did a little of that during the past summer, your humble correspondent is not without his anxiety to tell at least of one of the nice places he visited, and of one of the lovely persons he met while on his vacation.
But, no, the number of persons will have to be increased. There is no possible way of omitting two others. Of course, there were scores of lovely persons who were met, some of whom were known before and some whose acquaintance was formed for the first time. These need not be mentioned here, even though space permitted it, which it doesn't. But, the names of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Skinner, of New Haven, Conn., will have to be included.
These two are mentioned because they presented a felicitous picture of the true vacationists. More will be said later about them. The journey to the place will first have to be described.
Now, don't smile with derision when you learn that it wasn't more than two hours by train from Hagem. It was only to a point in New Jersey. But it will have to be admitted that even New Jersey has its attractive spots during the vacation season. New Yorkers may not find the state to their liking during the rest of the year, but when summer comes she wooes them to her shores with the allurement of a siren.
This thought came to mind as the train, with its loss of summer passengers, rolled out of the massive railroad structure, across the steel net work of tracks and out into the open meadows. These New Jersey meadows are not the type of landscape to make one grow enthusiastic, after the high ground, paved streets and towering buildings of Manhattan. Yet, on this particular morning, which happened to be Sunday and clear and hot, even these fertile bogs for mosquitoes reminded one that it was vacation time.
A little better than an hour's ride, and your vacationist was at his railroad destination. A ten minutes taxi drive and the cottage was reached. The cottage is one of those three-story buildings, the architecture of which is a cross pattern between the French and the Italian styles of building. Its location is what you would term an ideal site for a summer cottage. It sits about 100 feet from the main road, which leaves just enough acreage of beautiful lawn to give the place an air of country prosperity.
The story is told that it was the victim of a "spite" sale. But whether this is true or not, it is a fact, obviously to be observed, that the building was never erected with the thought that it would be put to the use to which it is now employed.
This becomes all the more apparent when it is compared with its neighbors. It towers over them in the same degree that a pretentious bungalow overshadows a falling hut. So, though its present use may some more by fate than by intention, nevertheless, the white trimmed house, with its green blinds, and wide sun verandas, encircling its front as a belt, makes a beautiful retreat in which to while away a vacation.
But, with all its idealistic surroundings, the cottage's main attraction was discovered in its kitchen. Some called her a genius; others said she was without a peer; others still called her the wonderful woman—all of which titles she fairly merited, but to your correspondent, she was a queen; a queen of the kitchen.
No matter when the hour, whether it was six o'clock in the morning or ten o'clock in the evening, a visit to the kitchen would find her there amid her pots and pans. Perhaps it was the hour for the delicious breakfast of Virginia ham, country eggs, freshly baked rolls and steaming hot coffee, or for the tasty dinner of prime roast beef, Maryland chicken, with apple sauce, or roast duck with candied sweet potatoes. But no matter at which of these hours you approached the queen, she was always in the mood to listen to what you had to request or what you had to say.
It was, however, on the day that Mr. and Mrs. Skinner took a party of four of us in their automobile to see the Graf Zeppelin at Lakehurst that your humble servant gave her the title of the queen.
We were rather late in starting from the cottage, which was about sixty miles away from the Lakehurst hangar. The hour was around three in afternoon, rather a tardy time to start to a point which was the motorist's mecca for the day. Anyway, Mr. Skinner, who is one of those sixty-year old men whose buoyancy and vigor easily be pitted against the average young man of 30, insisted that he would make the trip if his car stayed together, and as it was a 1929 Buick, we had no reason for doubting the car's reliability, or his boast.
Well, we reached the airport in which the Zeppelin serenely lay, but it took us from three o'clock until six to do the trip. After our inspection of the wonderful air craft, which was merely exterior, no observers being allowed to inspect the dirigible interior, we started back for the cottage and dinner. The return trip was made in considerable less time, but even at that, it was nearly ten o'clock when we arrived.
Some of us had eaten hot dogs at the naval field, all but Mrs. Skinner, who refused to join us in trying to digest them. She declared that she would not mar her appetite by such truck.
So most of the party were not quite as starved as she during the trip back. We all knew the dinner hour at the cottage, but we were very much concerned as to whether our hostess would extend those hours for us.
It was with considerable apprehension that we left the car, and made our way into-the dining hall. And lo, and behold! what a happy surprise! The queen had our places all ready and waiting. The only thing between us and food, she said, was for us to get upstairs and wash up as quickly, as possible, which, believe me, we lost no time in so doing.
On our return to the dining room, the most delicious meal of roast beef, rice, the grains of which might have been sentinels, so alone did each stand, asparagus tips, with buttered sauce, green peas, fruit and nut salad, floating island pudding, tea and coffee. The queen had heard us say that we were going to see the German airship, so she kept the kitchen open until our return.
Of course I had met the queen before, and perhaps, you, too, Mr. reader, have met her, but if you have not had that pleasure, and do not get the opportunity this season, be sure to avail yourself of the privilege next summer. Take the word of one vacationist—you will like her.
The name of this queen is Mrs. Edwin Craigg, the vacation spot in which she reigns is The Pierce Cottage, its location is Monmouth Beach, N. J.
Those of you who recall Craigg's Restaurant of West 130th street, New York, and the sumptuous meals that were served there several years ago, will most likely agree with this correspondent that a more fitting title for this cuisine artist is yet to be coined.
For fear he might get jealous and behead his queen, it might be royal etiquette to give Mr. Craigg the title of king. So far as this guests comfort was concerned, he was a king.
If all the residents in Jamaica, N. Y., were as ardent a booster of their community as the veteran Pullman employee, Andrew P. Cundy, the Long Island city would soon rival Manhattan Island as a dwelling place.

Speaking on the subject recently, he declared that the opportunities for one buying a home in his neighborhood were exceptionally favorable. For example, he said, there were three new cottages being built in the same street in which he lives, any one of which may be bought on very easy terms. He offers any person who is looking for such a buy to communicate with him and he will be glad to render the purchaser whatever assistance he can.

During the days of the Civil War, there lived up in the Old Bay State a splendid family by the name of Shaw, which was proud of the record the family had as soldiers and statesmen. In that critical time when the Union was threatened, young Robert Shaw raised and equipped the 54th Massachusetts Regiment, "all black," and the pages of history tell us how these brave men fought and died with the gallant commander on the battle field at Manassas, Virginia, August 29 and 30, 1862.
Many years after the people of Massachusetts decided to erect on the Boston Commons a monument to Gen. Shaw and his faithful men. The best sculptor in America was obtained, and he set about gathering material for his work, and there is where John Costin comes in, finest piece of work of its kind in America. Shaw and his collec
And today, on Beacon street, opposite the State House, stands the black men on their way to the front, and in the first set of faces there is a strong-faced man, heavy knapsack on his shoulders, cap drawn tightly down on his forehead, and with a firm grip on his musket, and with a determined expression to do or die.
That soldier is John Costin in bronze, fellow Pullman porter
John Cosfin is dead—dying a week ago, but up on the Commons in Boston he is still "carrying on!"

Gang of Wharf Hoodlums Rush Boat Carrying Members of St. Ambrose Church, Start Free-for-all Fight
Tardiness in Docking Boat Causes Stampede of Passengers, Then Gang, Refused Tickets, Rush Aboard, Steal Beer, Begin Fight Commenting on the disorderly actions of a group of hoodlums on the occasion of the recent night boat ride down the Hudson and through The Narrows, resulting in a free for all fight which lasted a full half hour, the Rev. E. E. Durant, vicar of St. Ambrose Church, which sponsored the affair, places blame for the occurrence on the boat officials.
Scheduled to be at the dock at 7'9 o'clock, the boat did not arrive until 8:30, and then it was moored to the wrong pier. As a result of this, the 1,000 excursionists stamped in the attempt to get on board, overwhelming the church officials, the boat crew and the five police-men detailed to keep order.
Hoodlums Crowded Boat
It was not possible to collect the tickets, nor was it possible to prevent the gang of hoodlums from crowding on board, although they had been refused the privilege of buying tickets.
One of this crowd stole a bottle of beer from the white concessionaire on the boat, and when remonstrated with proceeded to abuse the seller and his wife, who was helping him. When the hoodlum made an attempt to strike the woman, her husband grappled with him and with assistance from the crew the boy was arrested and placed below deck. His gang comrades attempted to rescue the prisoner and this precipitated the melee.
All of the disturbance was on the main floor, with glass doors being shattered, axes snatched from their rocks on the walls, and chairs being thrown overboard. Meanwhile the orchestra continued to play and the folks kept on dancing, while the fight waged merrily on the outside of the dancers.
Ride Was Shortened
Fearing a more serious outbreak, the ride was shortened by an hour or more, and on its return to the dock, the boat's sereeching siren summoned the police, who came on board. The police officers, with the boat crew and the church committee, stationed themselves at the boat's only exit and succeeded in arresting a number of the fighters. It was reported that two of the gang, which was made up of boys from 17 to 19 years of age, jumped overboard and swam ashore.
The patrol wagon took a heavy load to the station house and these were fined $10 each next day in court. The fighting was confined to the main deck, and people on other decks did not know of the disturbance. No one was cut or wounded.
Vice Durant made strenuous efforts to get police protection before the boat started on its trip, but could be in touch with no commanding officer, although he called several precincts on the phone.
It is said that the gang of hoodlums' is one that hangs out around the wharf and that they are known to members of the boat's crew. Since then, Vicar Durant has been presented a bill for $50 for damage to the boat but he declares that that could come to the dock on the deck and to the right pier, there would have been no trouble in handling the passengers in an orderly manner and that the gang would have been keptoff the boat.

Before the family wash could be hung out Monday morning, "national wash day," about ten families at 306 West 148th street, had to look for a nish to put up clothes lines.
An 80-foot pole, to which the lines were attached, fell to the ground Sunday morning, and caused much excitement in the neighborhood, as some thought that the rear of the building had collapsed. The pole, which had weathered the storms of more than a score of years, had its roof and walls held on Mother Earth. The court is a playground for a large number of children in the neighborhood, but because of the early hour of the day, only a few in the yards at that time
New Jersey Colored Man Builds Model Boat
In his spare time, Joseph N. Welch of New Brunswick, N. J., a graduate of Montclair High School, has perfected a model boat, fifty-one inches long, beam 13 inches, depth 10 inches; draws 6 inches of water, is fully equipped and ready to start, says the Sunday edition of the New Brunswick Times.
Everything that went into the making of this boat, was made by Welch's hands, even the threading of the minute parts and he did the most difficult welding in his little work shop. All parts were made by Welch, could be removed instant—and the whole boat can be dismantled in a very few minutes. It took Mr. Welch eleven months to build, this boat, in his spare time, from which the boat derives its name "Spare-Time".
This boat will be exhibited at New Jersey Colored State Fair, to be held at Riviera Park, Belleville, N. J., one week, Sunday, September 1 to 8, along with many other interesting and beautiful exhibits.
Fact-Finding Conference Program Being Arranged
Durham, N. C.—Plans are being formulated to make the third annual Fact Finding Conference the greatest and most fruitful meeting of its kind ever held for the race, and a course of action to this end being outlined, according to Dr. J. E. Shepard, president of the Conference. The Fact Finding Conference is composed of the leading Negroes in the business and professional life of America, and its purpose is the solution of problems of vital interest to the race. It will gather again in Durham next spring, at the North Carolina College for Negroes, of which Dr. Shepard is president. Each interest has been shown by the leaning citizens in all sections of the country. The coming conference is expected to be the most successful since its organization three years ago. Actual solution to problems of the race will be sought, and facts instead of theories will be dealt with.
Dr. Shepard is communicating with interested citizens all over the country, and suggestions for the success of its purpose have been solicited. In the spring, chief attention was given to problems of health, education, agriculture, labor, business and religion. Next spring, this

work will be carried farther along, and remedies will be sought for existing bad conditions. About 350 or 400 business and professional men and women from all sections of America are expected to attend.
Commends Stand for Race
Dear Mr. Moore:
I wish to first*comment you on your determined stand for the rights of our group in Harlem. Tis no more than I, who have known you for upwards of twenty years, could expect and therefore that is not the cause of this note. It is more to congratulate you upon the fact that one leader, who has the ear of his people, has publicly expressed himself in an unmistakable manner in your behalf in his weekly bulletin (which I enclose herewith) and in so doing I feel that others of his calling will do likewise.
It is a pleasure to me, who has known you since Colored American Magazine days, to say that you are engaged in a worth while battle, and that in my humble opinion you will win in a manner that will tell the rest of the United States of America that the Negro awaived to as much as rights but to the opportunities to obtain them, especially in Harlem. I am not in politics, have no ambitions to be, but if there is any way in which I can serve you to help you in this campaign. I am yours to command. T. ARTHUR-HEBBONS.
Throw Out The Skunks
By HILTON A. PHILLIPS.
It has always been a secret belief that certain Negro "leaders in Harlem are always picked out to do the "dirty job" of splitting up the colored vote, whenever there is a chance of the colored population to really elect men of their choice and of their own race. Such a situation now presents itself right here in Colored Harlem. There should rightfully be a colored State Senator, Congressman, two Assemblymen, two Aldermen and a colored judge or magistrate, in the twin-districts where the colored people are in the majority, but the situation is really so desperate, that the Negro is compelled to bow the knee to a small alien, which culled them, dividing the Negro electorate and leaders, and financially subsidising certain "natural graft-takers" who pose as the spokesmen of the betrayed Negroes who never reap any of the political weal, as other race-groups do as the aftermath of a successful election.
Here now in the 19th district of Harlem a colored Alderman who has all but neglected his other business in interest of colored Harlem, is threatened with replacement, all because he dared to struggle against the political "dirt business" of certain white men who design to perpetuate their overbearing leadership over a majority whose color they detest, but whose power brings them the "gold and incense" of their political careers. Alderman Moore is known and renowned all over the United States for his independence in matters that concern the Negro, and this writer while out in the Pacific States some time ago heard

the comments of many regarding such a man who broke down the "bogey" of permanent Democratic control in the 19th Harlem district. But we here in Harlem are now faced with the situation of choosing between the leadership of independent men, such as Adlerman Moore, and the "bosses" boys, and we, in Harlem are determined to show such men as Abraham Grenthal and their "culud" leaders that the political stench from their malodorous handling of the affairs of Harlem, has about reached our souls, and that they must either retire voluntarily or be THROWN OUT.
Poultry Experts at Tuskegee Institute
Tuskegee Institute, Ala.—Some two hundred members of the National Poultry Science Association which was in annual meeting at Auburn, visited the institute Wednesday afternoon, August 21. After a visit through the trade school, the visitors assembled in the institute chapel where a program of Negro Spirituals by the Institute Choir and the Tuskegee Quartet was rendered. The program also included a short talk by Dp. George W. Carver, who exhibited some of his experiments with the peanuts. The president of the Association, C.W. Carrick, professor of Poultry Husbandry at Perdue University, Lafayette, Ind., was presented to the audience by John E. Ivey, head of the Poultry Division at Auburn. The visitors were welcomed to the institute by E. C. Roberts, director of the Academic Department and acting principal.

Use Less Gas When
Gas ranges, water heaters and other gas-fired domestic equipment will work more economically and efficiently if kept clean. To this end the following suggestions are made by the New York State Committee on Public Utility Information: Top Burners should be boiled occasionally in a strong solution of washing soda, after which they should be thoroughly rinsed and dried before using. Care should be taken to avoid injuring the hands in using the solution. Oven Linings, unless enamelled or otherwise protected against rust, should be rubbed with a good grade of oil about once a week. This will prolong the life of the oven. No oil or grease which contains salt, as does bacon fat, should be used.
Water Heaters. The copper coils of the heater should be kept clean by the frequent use of a cloth or stiff brush, for foreign material on the coils tends to insulate them and causes the use of more gas. A stiff brush will also remove scale, dust and other material which may collect on the burner.
