Harris, arranged through two Grenthal supporters, Julia P. H Coleman and J. O. Wright. Mr. Pope told his story in the following words: "Some time ago Dr. Julia P. H Coleman, and, later, Mr. J O Wright, came to see me. They must have spoken under instructions from Grenthal, because later they arranged a meeting between Grenthal, George Haris and myself. "Each of them said that Grenhal wanted my assistance; that he would reward me with Myles Paige's job; that Grenhal wanted to discipline Paige for having voted for Moore at the County Committee Convention; that although Paige had voted for Grenthal that Grenhal considered it high treason for Paige to have voted for Moore. Reason to support Grenhal. They asked me if I would talk with Grenthal. I agreed, and met with Grenthal, George Harris and others in a lawyer's office on 125th street. Why Moore Was Ignored. Grenthal first explained to me how he refused Moore the designation. He said: 'I am the leader of the 19th Assembly District; the General Republican Club is my team. I am the boss. I told Moore to support me for the Assembly and be refused; that won't do. As leader of this district I am over everybody—captains, job-holders, and even the Alderman, are not bothered by my errand boys. Isn't that the George?' (Grenthal said to Harper) George Harris said, 'Yes, that's right.' Then asked Grenthal: "Why don't you give up the leadership and see the Assembly?" Made Money In Albany Grenthal said, 'No. I have made money in Albany on the State Committee under Democrat-governors; I will make much more on the Rules Committee and a Republican governor. Next year 1930, there will be a Republican governor and I want to be one. I am an Assemblyman next year as something big is coming off the only way I can be sure is from district leader.' He added, then, to help Grenthal, 'Of course he will give the leadership up after he gets what he wants in the Assembly.' But Grenthal only comment there was no commitment myself on that. 'He said to them, 'No. I won't support you. You are wrong on principle and I will support colored representation.' The voters present expressed themselves forebearly as to the advantage of a change in the pres REGISTER PUPILS! The New York City Public Schools open Monday, September 9.

W Fillmore, Counsellor Rivers and Alderman Moore spoke to the congregation at Abyssinian Baptist Church prior to the regular morning service and were given a hearty reception. Their talks were endorsed by the pastor. Dr. A. Clayton Powell, and by Nelson T. Dixon, trustee. A collection was given by the congregation towards the Moore-Rivers Campaign Committee expenses. At the Emanuel A. M E Church, West 119th street, the pastor, Dr. D. Ward Nichols made a strong plea to his congregation to support the drive for majority leadership, and at the Baptist Temple, West 132nd street, a similar plea was made by Charles M. Hanson. A report that is gaining in strength is to the effect that Grenthal, fearing defeat, is planning to remove colored captains and workers in colored districts with white captains and workers from other sections for the purpose of intimidating and browbeating the Negro voters on Primary Day The Rev. Richard Manuel Bolden, pastor of First Emmanuel Church, is reported to be advising his members from the pulpit to vote for Grenthal, and he is said to be actively campaigning for Grenthal and Harris and the retention of white leadership Miss Ruth Jones of the North Harlem Republican Club, in her canvassing for Abraham Grenthal for Assemblyman and leader, declares that she believes in white leadership as against colored.

Y., SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 7, 1929 Ward Heeler's Methods Are Charged Against Finley Wilson Joseph Cassanova In Serious Condition At Harlem Hospital; Stabbed Six Times Joseph Cassanova, of 645 St Nicholas avenue, one of the leaders of the Spanish and Cuban group in Harlem, is in a serious condition at Harlem Hospital as a result of trying to stop a fight between two friends Wednesday night, at 127th street and Lenox avenue, August 28. One of the fighters, who had been drinking, stabbed Cassanova six times about the head, shoulders and left side. The wound in the side was quite serious, and this, with the loss of blood, has kept him on the dangerous list among the patients at the hospital. Mr. Cassanova does not know his assailant. He is being given every attention by hospital authorities. Dr. E. P. Roberts Returns After a Month's Vacation Dr. and Mrs. E. P.

Eighty children escaped. Bodies of the eight were found in the ruins. They were trapped in an upstairs bathroom, where they sought shelter. A matron and Bessie Simon, founder and director of the home, led the seventy-two to safety. Most of them are orphans. Later, Rosebud Ankton, 15, who aided in the rescue of the children who were saved, confessed that she had set fire to the Home because she had been whipped. I just decided I wouldn't stand for it so I set fire to the place I didn't mean to burn them to death. Rosebed told Police who had subjected her to a full night of questioning. She confessed that she had shipped downstairs to the kitchen, got some matches, set fire to a waste paper basket and then set it in a clothes closet HOLSTEIN CHARGES RANK ROBBERY IN ELECTION OF ELKS GRAND EXALTED RULER Ethics Disregarded, Professional Ward-Heelers Tricks Resorted To By Wilson and His Men "The lowest type of fraternal politics I have ever seen," was the characterization given by Casper Holstein of New York, defeated in Atlantic City last Saturday for grand exalted ruler of the Grand Lodge, I. B. P. O. E. of W., in commenting upon the tactics used by the present incumbent, J. Finley Wilson of Washington, to retain his rulership. Throughout the entire session, although he was a candidate for re-election, Wilson retained the chair, regardless of ethics or anything else, and gave heed only to those who were pledged to do his bidding, said Mr. Holstein. As evidence of this is cited the fact that the grand treasurer, J. C. Martin of Chicago, was not permitted to read his report until towards the last hours of the session, and then only after he had agreed to resign. Deficit In Treasury. This, says Mr Holstein, was due to the fact that his report would not only show a defect in the treasury of $34, but would also incriminate the grand exalted ruler for an illegal spending of the order's money. With regard to the election itself, every track known to the professional political ward heeler was used, declared the defeated candidate. Although, after a long, hard night, the secret ballot was used, in conformity with the constitution, but decidedly against Wilson's desire, the handling of the election machinery was entirely in the hands of Wilson's henchmen. The handing out of the ballots was supervised by Nutter, Truchetart, and others of the Wilson crowd, and at the polls there were stationed five Wilson men at each poll, but Holstein was allowed to one. Vote Men From Streets. It was a common report that three ballots were given each Wilson supporter, and as there were three ballot boxes, each in a different room, it was an easy matter for a man to vote in each ballot box without detection. It was also reported that ballots were placed in the hands of Wilson worker, already prepared for being voted, and that these ballots were taken down town and placed in the hands of any man who would vote for Wilson. Even non-members, it is alleged, were allowed to use these ballots. The ballot boxes were in other rooms than the auditorium in which the sessions were held, and these outside voters could reach the polls without having to pass through the meeting room. One of these men was accosted by a delegate and charged with not being a delegate. The man's reply was that "Anybody can be a delegate who will vote for Finley Wilson." Disregard for Law Evidence of Wilson's disregard for the laws of the order was seen in his act of making Elks of his police guard, and then, when their grand lodge status was questioned, he automatically gave them the past evicted ruler's degree so that they could remain near him in the sessions. Mr. Holstein cited as evidence of the methods used the fact that in his presence Nutter cast votes for a lodge from Cuba and another from Panama. Another instance was that two suspended members from Monarch Lodge, Cornelius Hughes and Frank Myers, not only attacked for Wilson, but were allowed seals on the rostrum and were permitted to vote in the balloting. The treasurer's report showing a defect, and Grand Secretary Kelley's per capita tax showing only $6,000, not sufficient to pay the expenses of the session. Wilson stowed through, by a minority vote, a resolution authorizing the sale of $10,000 of Liberty Bonds held by the order, and he also, by the same vote, raised the per capita tax from 60 cents to $1. This latter action says Mr. H. I. Stein, has thrown in order, in almost open rebellion many of the lodges not on asserting their inability to pay a high tax, but also their unalterable determination not to do so, even if it results in a split in the order. In fact, says he, there is every indication that the order is pointing towards the rocks. White Elk Threaten. Another member of the order recited being approached by a white Elk, who denounced the Atlantic City meeting as a disgrace upon Elkdom, and predated that it would mean antagonism from the white Elks, who would probable take legal steps to prevent the Negro order from use of the name "Elks." In the balloting for grand treasurer, the first ballot showed that Martin led with 298 votes. Henry S Warner of New York came next with 191, followed by Turk of Ohio with 187. Stout of New Jersey with 154, and Toliver of Virginia, a perennial candidate, with just a few. The law requires a majority vote, so under the pressure being exerted upon him by Wilson's refusing to hear his report. Martin gave up the fight and resigned Warner was then elected. The uncertainty regarding the financial resources of the grand lodge resulted in pandemonium on Saturday afternoon when hundreds of committeemen were clamoring for their per diem pay. Wilson had named whoever he wanted to the various committees, regardless as to whether they were delegates or not. Many of these men were compelled, finally, to leave for home without getting the r money. Legal Action Doubtful. Asked as to the possibility of legal action being taken, Mr Holstein said that he had conferred with a lawyer but had been informed that it would be necessary first to exhaust all resources with in the order. This he said, would be a bootleast effort, since the committee on privileges is Wilson, the headquarters is Wilson, and any effort to secure a rehearing under those conditions would be wasted time and money.

Yonkers Woman Jumps Four Stories To Ground and Die Yonkers, N. Y.—Frustrated on her first attempt to commit suicide, Mrs. Hattie Gomes, 36, of 51 Jefferson street, was successful on her second trial when she leaped from a fourth story window at 4 1/2 Locust Hill avenue, where she was visiting friends on Friday evening, August 30. Mrs. Gomes had been ailing for some time and had been in a despondent mood. She landed on the sidewalk, and an ambulance was called, which took her to the Yonkers General Hospital. She died at 6:30, a half hour after she had made the fatal leap. Her native home was Pleasant Shade, Va., and she had been in Yonkers about five years. Female nurses were held from Bethany A M E.

George Harris Did Not Build Imperial Home Information has developed that the claim made by George Harris that he built the Imperial Elks' home on 129th street is without basis in fact. The building of the temple was entirely in the hands of board of directors, who arranged and supervised every detail. George Harris is not even a member in good standing at this time, is alleged, and for the past two or three years has hardly been seen at a meeting. Stealing Ride on Truck 10-Yr. Boy Hurt by Taxi Herman Graves, 10 years of age, of 134 West 134th street, enjoys riding on the rear end of passing trucks and autos. Until Tuesday evening he did not realize the danger of this sport. A truck passed through his block going toward Lenox avenue and he hopped aboard. When the truck turned into Lenox, Graves either attempted to jump off or lost his hold and fell. At any rate, he fell into the path of an oncoming taxicab driven by Mahra. Gutoles of 188 St. Nicholas avenue Before the driver could stop, the front wheels had hit the youth, causing a fractured skull and abrasions of the legs and back. The injured boy was rushed to Harlem Hospital where he was treated by Dr Fugassi.

A FORRIGE LANDS eath Support , 21, Leaped or Pavement From Edgecombe Avenue Crushed as Young Man to Death; No Reason by Think It Accident part of Edgecombe avenue is located the 13-story as the Colonial Parkway excitement Sunday morn- alph McKnight, 21 years of the seventh floor to the ally instantly killed. Several women who saw the body hurtling through the air burst into screams of terror, and in a trice the avenue in front of the building's area where the body fell was crowded with curious seekers after the cause of the screams. Head Was Crushed. The body lay in the area at north end of the building, and it could be seen from the pavement through the fence that the man's head was crushed. Most of the onlookers declare that death was instantaneous; but the superintendent of the building avowed that he was standing near the area when the body fell; that in a few seconds he had reached a spot where he could see the body, and that he saw the young fellow, make a seeming effort to raise his head. But this he was unable to do, and as the head fell back he distinctly heard the death rales. The young lady at the switchboard, Miss Billie Walker, happened to have an idle moment and was standing at the window, just at side of the switchboard looking out into Edgecombe avenue through the open space formed by the area just as the body came crashing down, almost in hand's reach of the young woman, Miss Walker, with rare presence of mind, did not faint or lose her self-possession, but immediately, set machinery in motion, first to assure herself of the identity of the victim, and then to get in touch with the proper authorities. No Reason For Suicide. Young McKnight came from Charlotte N. C. five months ago to join his four brothers living here some of them for a number of years. He lived with Mr. and Mrs James McKnight in apartment 7-B in the Colonial Parkway, 409 Edgecombe avenue, with two other brothers, Harold and Edwin, a fourth brother, Charles, lives at 772 St Nicholas avenue. The family declare that there was no apparent reason why Rudolph should have deliberately jumped from the window. He had been in good health, said Mrs. James McKnight, and had given no sign of mental disturbance or worry. He had been in good spirits and had no entanglements that would drive him to so desperate a step. There was no note or message of any sort, and the sister-in-law declares that they believe he either fell accidentally or was walking in his sleep. He was clad only in his pajamas, and wore not. After the body fell, it lay in the area about an hour before the corp neeager empir oner gave permission for its removal. In the meantime, the family had provided sheets, to cover it from the gaze of the curiously morbid crowd that thronged. pavement. It was taken first upstairs to the McKnight apartment, and later was turned over to the Duncan Brose, undertakers, who prepared it for shipment to Charlotte. N. C. on Tuesday. The funeral service was held in that city on Wednesday. Fai aR are ADVANTAGES , We ail want to see our children enjoy the advantages we did not have in our own. youth.

"When a person comes into court he comes on equal equality with every other citizen. He has no right to expect to be either exalted or condemned, to receive either more or less than is just on account of his race, color, or condition in life, or by his convictions upon social, economic, industrial, political or religious matters. "These matters have no place in a criminal trial, and should not and will not be permitted to becloud the one issue we are to try."

He thought all that was wrong with the boy was that he was homesick and wanted to see his folks and his home. This state of mind is readily understandible, as white cadets have suffered from the same trouble, and some of them have, been known to resign their cadetship on that account Representative Oscar DePriest who visited the United States Military Academy at West Point last week, to investigate the report that Alonzo Parham, the cadet appointed by him from Chicago, was being ostracised, was reported as saying that he found nothing to indicate that Parham 'was being treated any differently than other cadets. He thought all that was wrong with the boy was that he was homesick and wanted to see his folks and his home. This state of mind is readily understandible, as white cadets have suffered from the same trouble, and some of them have, been known There is no coddling of the "plebees," as the first year men at the Academy are termed, at West Point although the practice of hazing by compelling them to do painful and ridiculous stunts is not so common as it was years ago. The West Point idea of the qualities and prerogatives that go to make an officer and a gentleman, are somewhat peculiar, if not puerile. The military psychology that helps to produce them was aptly, if unconsciously, portrayed in a recent book entitled "The Golden Pilgrimage," written by the youthful son of an American army officer and a brilliant Southern novelist. This is a naturalistic exposition of the reactions of a male child from the age of six to eleven to a military environment. His early years in the Philippines taught him that white men and boys were born to boss the colored races. During his father's assignment to duty in Washington, this idea was disturbed by the Washington policemen, who discouraged his attempts to drive colored children from the parks. This was his first experience of democracy, in a land where all people were declared equal. Nevertheless, he and his comrade prided themselves on the fact that they were "officers' sons," forming a distinct and superior class to the rest of the population. His play, from the "tin soldier" period to his association with regulars and the national guard recruits, helped to confirm his militaristic leanings, until training of the citizen soldiery for the world war enlarged his vision. This study of the psychology of an American boy under army environment helps to account for the sentiment that makes West Point and Annapolis so hard for all newcomers and especially for Negroes. Those cadets of the darker race who have graduated from West Point, proved themselves possessed of sound bodies, strong hearts and indomitable spirit. Alexander, Flipper and Young needed all these elements of manhood to carry them through the four long years that gave them commissions as heutenants. They needed all the internal resources of cultural training and serenity of spirit to prevail against the underlying influence of the West Point idea. This puerile conception of the proper attitude of an officer and a gentleman has never been more cleverly portrayed than in "The Golden Pilgrimage," which might better have been called "Confessions of a Tin Soldier General." The West Point idea has been held up to decision intentionally or not, by exposing the infantile reasoning upon which it is based. THE NEW YORK AGE sympathetic expressions extended to the mourners at this meeting. He also praised the fine spirit shown by the British government in accepting the mandate of the Palestine in order that the Jews might establish this homeland under that protection. He noted the great progress made in this enterprise during the past ten years and the enormous contributions made to the cause by American Jews, who, he said, "have demonstrated not only the fine sentiment and ideals which inspire their activities but their practical possibilities." Altogether he showed a thorough appreciation of the situation, which was highly creditable to his head and heart and to be accepted as voicing the general sentiment of the American people of all races and colors. Nevertheless there is occasion for reflection as to the different reception accorded the tidings, when just as savage and, riotous disturbances took place in this country not so many years ago at such widely separated localities as East St. Louis, Chicago and Tulsa, Oklahoma. Men and women were slaughtered, houses were burned, business places were sacked and looted by mobs, without eliciting any remonstrance or expression of sympathy from the President or other high officials. Was it because the victims of these American pogroms were black, or was it that mob excesses are accepted as an inevitable part of American civilization? A PLEA FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS. A London preacher, the Rev. A. T. Bennett, Haines, formerly of St. Paul's Church, Knightsbridge, who is now in this country, in a recent sermon before a white congregation in The Bronx, told of the duty of the church to the Negro he asserted that Negro, civilization will claim a place in world affairs, but whether its pattern will be good or bad depends upon the life, precept of the white race. He added that when the colorless faces attain their destiny, they will practice what they have learned from the whites. Continuing, he said: "It is not only for our own sakes that we need seek peace and ensure it, but for the security of the world's future. The horror of the last great war would be as nothing of the past, but as the people of the press and explicate these people and nothing could prevent the future oppression of our posterity by the same token. If you may be as plaid and nonchalant as you like about it now but God help you and your children children unless you are awake to these facts. The writing is on the wall. Great thinkers see it and are ever warning us. When, or when, shall we weed?" This English preacher may be casually dismissed by the heedless and indifferent multitude as an alarmist, but the tone of his sermon indicates the attitude of many conscientious and thinking Christians. It is a plea for righteousness that should penetrate the most callous mind on the ground of self-interest, if for no other reason. A London preacher, the Rev. A. T.

Palestine has long been recognized as the homeland of the Jewish race, and systematic efforts have been made to colonize them in that territory and restore the ancient glories of the past by according them a country of their own. Unfortunately, Palestine is located in Arabia, which has a preponderant Moslem population, which does not recognize the claims of the Jews as the rightful inheritors of the holy places of Biblical history, but on the contrary assert conflicting claims of their own, based on Mohammedan tradition. As the Arabs are in the majority, they have actively presented the increasing number of Jewish colonists and their growing prosperity. AN ESSAY IN FOOTGEAR Time was when the primitive-races of man went bare-shod and hardened the feet by treading the soil unprotected by coverings of skins or hides. In war climates away from the cities and amon Time was when the primitive traces of man went bareshod and hardened their feet by treading the soil unprotected by coverings of skins or hides. In warm climates away from the cities and among uncivilized people this simple fashion still obtains. Even among the civilized nations there exist certain groups of health seekers, who insist that walking barefooted in the morning dew will contribute to the wellbeing of the human system. But the conditions of city life and modern civilization demand that the human being shall protect his feet by substantial coverings, which has created the constant demand for shoes of various styles and patterns. This fanatical pride of race and determination to retain possession of territory has led to the recent outbreaks of robbing in Jerusalem, which started at the famous Wailing Wall and led to the slaughter of many Jews, not only in Jerusalem but in various parts of Palestine. As Great Britain maintains a virtual protectorate over Arabia, by virtue of a mandate of the League of Nations, the British army and navy are expected to restore order and secure reparation for the lives and property destroyed. This development of a race of tender-feet has hastened the gradual change of shoemaking from a skilled handicraft, dependent on, the art of the individual producer, to a vast industry turning out a volume of machine production. Custom-made articles built on lasts, gauged to fit individual pedal extremities, have given way to immense stocks of footwear of various sizes as to width and length, with anful devices of arch support and other aids to comfort and ease. Fashion has also dictated the employment of many varieties and colors of leather to match the costume and occupation of the wearer. Every variety of footgear, from the heavy brogan of the day laborer to the dancing pumps of the lounge lizard, is turned out by the machine. At an immense mass meeting held in New York City, last Thursday night, nearly twentyfive thousand Jews gathered to deplore the uprisings in Palestine, make earnest protest against the killings of the members of their race and to offer ph appropriate memorial to the dead. In this duty they, were joined by expressions of sympathy and regret from various Americans in high office. There were telegrams from President Hoover and Governor Roosevelt, and speeches by Senator Borah and Mayor Walker. Some fifty Jewish organizations of the city took part in the memorial and protest. In his telegram expressing his profound sympathy with those who have been bereaved and who have suffered through these disturbances, the President said, among other things: In the development of the shoe industry, the black workman has played his part, one of the most important devices for machine production having been invented by a member of the race employed in a New England factory. An interesting account of his invention and the part it played in stimulating production was published in the A. M. E. Church Review some time ago. One of the skilled craftsmen at custommade shoes was a West Indian shoemaker named Mader A. Priddie, who made fine footwear in this city around the nineties. The demand of the present age, how- Great citizens in every country declare these outbreaks and this loss of life. Our government is deeply concerned not only in this broader sense but in the narrow sense of the protection of the lives of American citizens. That is all very true and the President is to be commended for his prompt and Here is a field for cooperative effort on the part of members of certain fraternal and beneficial organizations, who have learned how to work together.

I was greatly impressed by an editorial which appeared in the New York Daily News, a white organ on August 24, under the caption "HEFLIN vs DE PRIEST." That editorial is, to my mind, a compliment to Mr DePriest's political grasp of national issues, as well as a compliment to the electors in Chicago, who had the courage and foresight to put Representative DePriest in office. That is an editorial with sound philosophy, which does not fail to convince the American public that the Hon DePriest has actually gripped the conscience of the nation by his widely heralded declaration that the real rights of Negroes in this liberty-loving country is through "electing more colored Congressmen and legislators from colored sections." The editorial is a valuable endorsement of Hon DePriest's efforts on behalf of the race in America. And according to the accompanying advice, the thoughtful minds of the Negro race can justify DePriest's election by co-operating wish with him in every point and gesture which he must make in helping the white legislators to solve the problems of the country water both live. But last we forget the real rights and privileges of any people are to wards exemplary, constructive and benevolent living for themselves and for other race-groups round about them. And these real rights can never be properly visualized nor will they be the proper possessions of their lives, unless they equally strive to maintain a proper moral and spiritual background under wise, intelligent religious leadership. In this the Negro Church must he put in the force to help meauralis. For, the rights—political, social educational and religious—of any people particularly refer to the continuing and ultimate use of their embodied powers for the weal of humanity in general. S. E. CHURCHSTONE LORD. The Week of ASTROLOGICAL BY TH The Week of September 7 ASTROLOGICALLY CONSIDERED BY THEARCHER Jupiter will bring opportunities for financial gain; social honors and promotion in business and employment to the birthdates of June 0 and 7, August 7 and 8, October 9 and 10, and February 4 and 5 all this week. The 11th, 13th, 14th and 15th are the best days, and the birthdates in this group will certainly be able to get ahead if the days are used. The June and October birthdates will have some very interesting dreams that should be noted. None of us gain more than we deserve, and that is why it is best to do things on the best days to get ahead. Saturn will certainly bring some serious changes to the birthdates of September 16, 17 and 18; December 16, 17 and 18; March 15, 16 and 17; and June 15, 16 and 17, until September 17, for the Sun is approaching a square aspect that is very adverse. The desire to make changes; begin new enterprises, and to travel will bring much loss and disaster. It is best that these dates remain as they are until after September 17 at least. This aspect always brings changes in housing and rental affairs, and property losses as well. That the fraternal system can be adapted to practical needs of the race outside of the original order, has already been demonstrated. It might readily be applied to the retailing of footgear.

Clean Up Harlem's "Uncle Tom's" Mess BY HILTON A. PHILLIPS. Surely the serious onlooker cannot but be bewildered and amazed in piercing through the dark fog of sneak stratagem by which the destins of over 250,000 Negroes here in Harlem is controlled by a group of arrogant black-and-tan quacks, who give their all when the political and economical trumpet sounds, but who receive little of the "victor's spoils" when the "titated calves" of offices are apportioned The Negro has been worklessly led on the road to Golgotha, he has been fed generously with the "worm-wood and gall" of emply treacherous promises by a few penny-stamp "cullud" leaders (2) most or all of whom are financially-bolstered up in their "Isacari" role by race selling blood-money, fed to them over the palings of shameless traitorism by some white office seekers, who are rightfully too timed to actually do the dirty job themselves for fear of an open revolt against them, so but malevolent tricks and methods. Most people are now getting to know that there is something really rotten in the political affairs of colored Harlem, and until an aroused populace starts a thorough cleaning up of the mess and wreckage under which it is now enthralled little can be done to maintain racial confidence into the trembling souls of the few who know of the deep principle involved in the struggle for race leadership and trust. Fellow citizens now is the time to pour heart all of the political effort into our possession on these professional race sellers, let us drive these discredited "burn-out undesirables" Crusoes Man Fridays and all out of Harlem's affairs. Let us help Franctis Rivers and Fred K Moore on September 12 next to roast the noses of these black-and-tan quacks, once and for all, by chasing them back to the "gore and blood" filled creepsofs of their private tumultuous careers September 7 LY CONSIDERED These birthdates should take very good care of the health, and avoid giving colds a good start. Speculation is not worth just now for these birthdates. Patience will bring the best results. September 9 and 10 are not good days here. Neptune, the planet that rules mysterious things, hospitals, all matters that pertain to the sea, chemicals and oils and slaughter houses, will be in very good aspect to the birthdates of April 21, 22 and 23 December 22, 23 and 24 October 24, 25 and 26, and June 22, 23 and 24 for the next two years. This brings the help of powerful and influential people in a quiet way, and gives these birthdates some ability to sense and feel the outcome of events long before they happen. The best day here is September 11. The readers who would like to know how to avoid some of their worries, and to know how to get ahead, should write to Thearcher, in care of The New York Age, 230 West 135th street, New York City. The birthdate, month, year, hour and place must be given correctly if the hour of birth is not known the time of day, morning or evening and the date of the month. COMMENTS BY THE AGE EDITORS ON THE SAYINGS OF OTHER EDITORS The Africo-American Presbyterian, which was established in 1879 and published at Charlotte, N. C., wanted to know, "Do Church people read their Church paper?" It is tied the following light on the direction. the Louisiana Weekly of New Orleans said: In Louisiana there are certain parishes where the colored teacher is of the poorest variety and receives the poorest pay, some as low as $40 per month. There are schools A writer in this week's *African American Presbyterian* says he was surprised to find that a contribution of his which appeared in the paper about four weeks ago on a very vital question was unnoticed by most of the subscribers in the community where he is temporarily residing. This led him to the conclusion that only a few people read their Church paper as they should. We fear his finding is true. Of course, it is not expected that all readers will peruse the various departments of the paper with equal care and avidity. Some will be particularly interested in one thing and some in another. To one subscriber the personal and news items have a equal importance while to others the official is the most important. Having regard to the different tastes of his readers the editor tries to furnish something that will speak to "each in his own tongue." He is especially gratified, however, when an article upon which he sets high valuation receives a like appraisal from his readers. Some church papers have a greater appeal to the general reader than others, due to the individuality of the editor. Such papers as the *Citizens Recorder*, the *Star of Zion* and the *American Baptist* usually contain some matter of general race interest, besides the news of denominational doings. Voiceing the views of a well-known economist, who recently returned from an intensive study of France and the chances there for people of color, Patrikk B Prescott quoted his conclusion in the Chicago I ship, with the following comment: "America for livelihood, France for privilege." That is true. And it is easy to see why. If the average man migrates from America he must take with him something to the country to which he goes. American wages are the highest on earth; fore, if he is simply become a wage earner he will surely get less than he could command in his own country. Moreover, his chances of employment are slimmer. For foreign nations are clannish where the economic factor enters. They have no race problem. Thiers is an economic problem. And the "foreigner" is the last man hired. These two elements, then keep the "average" man from having much prospect in a foreign land. He has nothing superior to give and for that reason cannot command. It is just another but of evidence that migration is not the solution of the so-called race problems. To hold the economic advantage that this country naturally affords and to fight unceasarily for the privileges that other countries offer, that is the ultimate and lasting solution you cannot improve ecology the privileges that other countries whose inhabitants are likewise eager to migrate for the same economic reasons. But as for rights, stand your ground and fight without fear or compromise. The soundness of this conclusion cannot be refuted although there are individual instances of colored Americans who have gone to other countries and prospered. But they were exceptional cases who took something with them that commanded a premium. The St. Luke Herold which is published weekly by the Grand Council of that order in Richmond noted the following evidence of harmony presented at the biennial sessions recently held. The Committee on Grievance and Appeals had this to report. "No grievances," were reported to the committee. The statement in its simplicity has little or no significance, but when one goes back of it, and considers that an organization with a constituency of more than one hundred thousand men, women and children, scattered over twenty-three states and the District of Columbia, made up of all sorts and conditions of men, the report of the committee was hardly less than divine in its implications. The report of the committee said in other words that there is absolute harmony within the ranks of the Independent Order of St Luke. The entire membership approves of its officers and its executive leadership, except one on the official is in accord with every one else on the staff. In short, the mass of human's moving toward a goal of economic security. This unusual condition was borne out in truth when the election of officers was held. Not one candidate for office had an opponent. The right of succession of no officer was challenged. All was harmony "No grievances were reported to the committee." In this day of dissension and contest for office in most of our fraternal and beneficial organizations, this reported harmony seems almost incredible. Noting that many of the Southern newspapers have been branding Dr. Edgar W. Knight as a slanderer and a falsher, because he told Columbia University of the educational backwardness of the South, should be written at the top of the letter. This paragraph and a stamped and self-addressed envelope should accompany the birth data. All communications are confidential. Saturday, September 7, 1929 the Louisiana Weekly of New Orleans said: In Louisiana there are certain parishes where the colored teacher is of the poorest variety and receives the poorest pay, some as low as $40 per month. There are schools poorly situated, unkempt, dark, dingy and not conducive to the best of health and study. While in these same parishes the white students have the best of buildings and the best of teachers that money can provide in many cases buses loaded with little white children pass Negro children trudging through the mud for four or five miles to school and when they get there the should be confronted by an instructor that should be attending school instead of teaching. Thirty-eight percent of our group are enrolled in the schools of the State, while only four percent of the monies appropriated by the State for educational purposes are used for them. Now what causes this? There is no doubt in the mind of the writer of this article that at the present time more improvements are being made in the Southern educational system. But do they include the Negro as far as they should? Our fair city is an example. We are far behind in equipment, fireproof buildings and other necessities that go to make a well-rounded system. Yes, we are improving, but that does not detract from the statement of Dr. Knight that we are at the bottom of the educational ladder. Instead of slandering the South we uncovered the skeleton in the closest and gave to the world facts that are oftimes kept within the boundaries of the "Old King Cotton" All of which goes to support the truism, that the South cannot keep the Negro down in the mud without getting into the mere itself. Hailing what it considers A Cause for Another Colored Congressman," the Baltimore Hirels and Commonwealth said in an editorial. Hubert Delany, young, vigorous, alert and popular has been designated by the Republican organization to the 21st New York Congressional District for nomination for Congress from that district. All opposition within the Negro group seems to have faded away and young Mr. Delany seems to have a clench on the nomination. With every element of the parts and of his group for him his chances for election should be good. Every man and woman of his own race in the 21st District. New York, should be happy to have a man of the race, so capable, so able and so worthy of honor to represent them at Congress of the United States and should fit it a duty diligently and faithfully from now until the vote is cast to register every person qualified to register and then to get out the vote in November. The intolerant democratic South has destroyed for the time being the political rights and privileges of the Negro and believed that it had destroyed his influence and power in politics nationally. It was a rude shock to the South when Defiant entered Congress and then will be represented in Congress and in a news jumps Chicago in sending a Negro as Representative in that body. It can be done and we want to see New York do its duties and send Delaware to Congress. The party leaders are to be con- gratulated for their choice and the Negro group is to be congratulated for the selection of one of their number possessing so many admirable qualities and so well fitted to represent them. If any further incentive was need- ed to impel Harlem voters to do titer duty, it would be found in the outside interest manifested in the campaign. Referring to the passing of Victor L. Berger, the Socialist Congre- sman from Wisconsin, the Norfolk Journal and Guide praised his traits of sterling character, undaunted courage and noble idealism. It ad- ded. Many of the principles and ideas advocated by Victor L. Berger and Eugene V. Debs back in 1893 when they organized the Socialist parties have since gradually crept into our form of government. And though socialism in the form advocated by these pioneers may never be accepted in America, the tendency toward socialism or paternalism in our government is greater today than ever before. For instance our Congress has recently enacted a Federal tax relief law—as nearly a paternal measure as has ever been—the child labor laws, the maternity laws and numerous other laws in the utmost importance to our nation, certainly bordering closely on paternalism or socialism. The prediction is that this tendency will be stimulated rather than checked. Our country is growing older, individual opportunity is growing slimmer, the exactions of life are growing more inexorable, and the people are growing more and more to their greatest, the Government. Victor L. Berger felt almost the pulse of the common people. One of his last noble gestures on the Congress was to introduce a federal anti-lynching bill more stringent in its provisions than the one long sponsored by Representative Leonidas Dyer, of Missouri. But Mr. Berger will be addressed and remembered longer for his devotion to principle. It is not generally realized that much of the humanitarian legislation later adopted by one or another in the two great political parties had its origin in the platform of the Socialist party. As an instrument for pushing reform of this character CHURCH AND RELIGIOUS ACTIVITIES Paradise Baptist Church Rev. A. Brown took great interest in assisting Rev. H. W. Stanley during his vacation. He preached both morning and evening at Paradise Baptist Church, 185 Lenox avenue. At 11 a.m. he spoke on "Let us go up," which is success for all who are striving for a higher aim in life. Rev. Brown, full of the spirit, used as his evening subject, "Watch" in reference to the ten virgin. He emphasized the fact that all the virgins possessed lamps and opportunities; five of them were wise and five were foolish. They all slumbered and slept, but when they awoke their lamps had to be trimmed and refilled. The foolish sisters did not prepare for the emergency and therefore had to go back and purchase more oil. When they returned the door was shut. This parable Jesus likened unto the Kingdom of Heaven. We pass off Christians but when the time comes for all pretense and artful coverings, to be shed, nothing but the genuine reality will stand the test. All the departments of the church are on, an upward march. Next Sunday Rev. H. W. Stanley will be heartily welcomed by his members and friends. Miss P. Laurence, reporter. St. James Pres. Church This is "Home-coming Week" in St James Presbyterian Church. Vagations are over. The church school has resumed its regular sessions at 9:30 a.m. The choir has returned D.

The various young people who have had the wonderful privilege or attending Blairstown Presbyterian Conferences, Blairstown, N.J., the summer leadership training school at Camp Sloane, Conn., are back bubbling over with enthusiasm and a new outlook on life, such as they've never experienced before. All are settling down to another year's work, with renewed sum and vigor and the determination to carry St. James' triumphant life over the top. On next Sunday the morning hour will be devoted to the service of the holy communion, at which time Dr. Imes will preside. In the evening the Sons of Georgia and Ladie's Auxiliary will have their annual sermon. Mother Zion Church The services were largely attended at Mother Zion Church on last Sunday. The pulpit was filled by Bishop C. C. Allewne. He used a subject "Motions and Diversity." At the close of his discourse seven persons united with the church. Church services were conducted in the lecture room at 10:30 a.m. Rev Wm Hogans was the speaker. Baptism and communion were administered. At 2 p.m. church school sessions convened.

Grace Church of Harlem A typical summer's day congregation came out to Grace Congregational Church to hear the pastor, Dr. A. C. Garner, in an interesting Labor Day, Communion service on Sunday morning. Dr. Garner did not take any particular text for his sermon but took as his theme, "The Place and Power of the Working Man." Dr. Garner was thoroughly conversant with his subject and brought out point after point which he presented in a most able manner to an interested congregation. The biggest point brought out in his sermon was that in all our numerous labors which find favor in the eyes of God we cannot hope to achieve any success unless we apply the great and only principal, "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you." Communion was served by Dr. Garner and his deacons to a goodly number of the congregation. A trio consisting of Mrs. Helen Hammond, contraltor Nelson B Segit, tenor, and Percy W. Bean, bass, took the place of the usual choir, which is still on a vacation, and gave fine music during the service. The tenor solo, "Eye Hath Not Seen," by Mr. Scota, was rendered in fine voice by Hugo O'Bornn, the organist, was welcomed back from his vacation at the morning service. W Herbert King, religious instructor, was a visitor at the church and helped serve the communion. Church school convened at 9:15 a.m. and the Gracondis Club at 2:15. Thru some misadventure the program scheduled for last Sunday night, vesper service was not carried out. Cleveland G. Allen in charge, Mrs. Gertrude Furze, secretary of the Forum. Sunday, September 8, the Rev. W K Holloway, former dean of Brick Junior College will be the guest of the church at the morning service. Dr A C Garner pastor, will leave for camp on September 8 and be away until September 22, returning for the farewell reception to the Rev. and Mrs Samuel R Cole, our own missionaries to Africa, on September 10. Plans are under way to give Rev. and Mrs Cole a roaring farewell Mrs Cole is a sister of Dr Floyd Terry. Dr Garner was called to preach the funeral sermon on Saturday, August 31, of little Mateal Rayson, one-year old child of James, and Alberta Rayson, who died August 29. On Wednesday evening, Dr. Garner united in marriage A Bailey and Mrs. Pen- Matties at 230 West Indian street St. Cyprian's Charel The last Sunday morning early communion service at S a m, in charge of the acting vice, Rev Emmett E Miller was well attended. Abe F. in service, little Cyprian's Chapel, now being surrounded by automobile manufacturers and garages, was filled with a large anxious congregation, friends and unknown numbers of visitors to hear the last sermon of Rev Miller who preached a sermon on "Dry Bones in the Valley." At the conclusion of this sermon, there was nothing to be heard from every one present but commedation and regret that such an able minister had to leave New York to return to his school and church work in the South. At the conclusion of the service a presentation of traveling expenses, etc. were made to Rev Miller in the parish house by Mr. and Mrs. Martinboro, from the members and friends of the church. One of the great achievements accomplished by Rev Miller during his short stay was the securing of the services of one of his former members as superintendent of St Cyprus's Sunday school, which opens Sunday, September 15, at 4 p.m. WHERE TO GO TO CHURCH Next. Sunday night at the 8 p.m. service the new superintendent Counselor Robert R. Penn of 2298 Seventh avenue, born in Petersburgh, Va., graduate of Harvard University and the New York University, will be welcomed by the church and make a short address. After the 11 a.m. service Sunday, the funeral of Miss Lorraine Warren, daughter of Mrs. Rose Warren, was held. Miss Warren was a member of our junior choir. Undertaker Thos. W. Turner was in charge of the funeral. A lawn party will be held in the parish house grounds by the Progressive Clubbette Friday evening, September 6. St. Paul Baptist Church Rev. H. Arthur Booker returned to his pulpit after an absence of one month, spent for the most part in Saratoga Springs, N. Y. While there, he and Mrs. Booker were guests of Mrs. V. Pilkington and daughter at their beautiful home, 161 Lake avenue. Other guests there were the Misses I. P. and J. A. Booker, Mine V. H. Scott, Wm. H. Hunt, consul to Guadeloupe, W. I. the Misses L.

Sunday being dedicated to labor the pastor spoke in the morning on "The Church and Labor." At the evening worship the minister addressed the 10th Patriarchy Regiment as they gathered in their memorial and anniversary services. A large gathering consisting of the members of the Fureka and Progressive Lodges with several members of the Household of Ruth were present "Friendship as a Spiritual Bond" was the subject of the evening address. During the vacation geeriod the pulpit was occupied by the Reyes los I. Phipps T. A. P. Morton and Wm. R. Lawton. The minister and family spent their vacation at Atlantic City and Great Barrington, Mass. Refuge Church of Christ Like a mist from the hills of time rose the National Convention of the Church of Christ Assembly of which R. C. Lawson is Apostle. The convention now swags across the Imelight prominently and bids all to come irrespective of race, creed or color. The conference was welcomed to New York Monday night, August 27 by Alderman Fred R. Moore, its official spokesman for the city; Sir D. Ward Nichols, vice president of the Interdenominational Preachers Alliance; Frances F. Rivers, whose record includes graduation from Yale and Columbia; Phi Beta Key, active service in the Argentine Forest during the World War. Cliff Apostle J. C. Lawson responded to these addresses. Tuesday, August 25, 2023, Elder S. F. M. Colleen pastor of the Banker Church of St. Peter, Bainim, PA, preached in the large congregation that filled the spacious auditorium. Elder H. H. Spencer, a young man of rare qualities, who is pastor of the Rehmann Church of Christ Columbus, Ohio was chief speaker of the evening Wednesday August 29, 2023, God's Purpose in The Age, is the subject tug of the Choir Apostle at the Daily Bible class held from 2 to 4 p.m. Both white and colored taupe have attracted to our church and to our regret we are sorry that we cannot accommodate the huge throngs that crowd into the church nightly to seats. It has been clearly shown during the present campaign that the thinking mind is filled with and through with faith, gratitude and flow of language that people in the church will see in the thinking mind and thinking Christ. Christ has expressed the Friend to the saving of the soul as well as the healing of the diseases of mankind such as has been stressed practiced and treated during the church meeting. A. C. Laws, Apt. of the Ambulance, preached a wonderful sermon on the theme the healing of disease, August 10. He beautifully prepared how the Internal power that gives life and energy to all forms of life also stream from the unachievable stream of leth- vate and heals men of all manners of disease. Divine healing and baptismal services preceded the sermon. Bible classes occupied the order of services Saturday, August 31. Midnight prayer meeting lasted until six o'clock Sunday morning. Father L. A. Bell assistant general older of the Church of Christ Assembly preached* to the vast throne that filled the main auditorium Sunday morning. Sunday services were held in the main auditorium. In order to take care of the overflowing services were held simultaneously in the downstairs department of the church building.

At the end of this SECRETARIAL Lincoln School 261-269 West 125th St..N.Y.C. The summer season draws to a close and fall activities begin with the Staff Setting-Up Conference which was held at Fern Rock Camp, September 3 to 5. As we look back upon the summer it is interesting to note how the complexion of the work changes with the seasons. As August draws to a close the summer emphasis in the work reaches its highest peak. This section of the city seems emptied of New Yorkers and filled with visitors and it is the privilege of the Branch to extend to these visitors service of all kinds—direction in travelling through the city and nearby cities; help in finding friends, and all the other things that stranger in a city may need to know. During the summer quite a few groups have been conducted through the building and seldom has a day passed when several individuals have not been shown over the plant. Many W. Y. W. C. A. secretaries from all over the country have come in to see the buildings and there have been representatives from other organizations, the president of an Old Ladies' Home for instance. Questions from these visitors are answered as carefully as possible, and it is considered a privilege to give this type of service which extends beyond he boundaries of our own community. The past summer has been the most successful one which Fern Rock Camp has ever known. In other year, there has been dull times during the season and overcrowded times. This summer the camp was filled to the brim from the very beginning and has overflowed most of the time since. The nesting thing about this is not the prosperity of a full camp and the aiming to give the best service because of this. This is good enough it is true, and much to be desired, the very finest thing is that parents are sending their children to camp in larger numbers every year, that they are realizing the advantage of a summer out-of-doors for their children. Colored children have not had the privilege of good summer camps for so very long, and it is splendid to see how the good camps all over the country are growing steadily in popularity. Cards to the various members of the staff from the Ernest Alexander's of 234 West 1939th street, all proclaim that Dr. and Mrs Alexander are having a fine trip. They are spending the months of September and October "doing Europe" rather well. Mrs Lallian Alexander has been for many years a memo concert 21 children were treated with ice cream and cake. Mrs Vikens has become a general worker of the dearestresses, to which the church is grateful. At the 8 p.m. service, when E. M. Grant delivered a well prepared sermon Mrs. Louise Dieter Banks was present in the congregation to witness the celebration of the Lethargy of the "Pre-Sanitized" for the first time and the expressed her satisfaction in the order and term of worship in this church and promised to do all in her power to make the work a greater success in the city. At 4 p.m. next Sunday the first confirmation of this church will be celebrated in this city. Rev W. Kirnon, of the African Orthodox Church, will present the candidates and Rev J. E. Jackson of the Church of the New Jerusalem will preach the sermon Heartwelcome to all in Room 1, 101 West 131st street --- Chicago, Ill.—The first medical missionary to be sent to Galangue, Angola, West Central Africa, by the Congregational Church will be Dr. Aaron A.

The entire family will spend the first year in Portugal, studying the language, which is the official language in Galangue. The staff at Galangue is headed by the Rev. Henry C. McDowell of Epes, Ala., who treked four days into the wilderness and established the station. Rev. Coles went out in 1922. The plant includes buildings for the schools, a small dispensary, a dairy, carpenter and blacksmith shops, a garage and a large farm.

WHITE PROGRESS The store, which stands on the corner of Fifth Street, had been idle for twelve months or more. It had a speakeasy, but whether it was through lack of the necessary affluence, that surreptitious and hard was closed to the patrons who found its cone. Thus did it remain so until recently. Several months ago carpenters and fixers busy around the place. From an idle room, the store again. When this was first noted, the first into this observer's mind was—a new speakeasy. Passing by a few days later, the discovery of the story was all wrong. The store was being removed for an entirely different business. Instead of wind, the curious could not gaze, the new windows were placed of the customary speakeasy entrance, the door to the view of the public. In short, the former converted into an up-to-date lunchroom. Not the sort of lunch place that one would do on upper Fifth Avenue.

In fact, he thought of Fifth avenue and its particular morning as he glanced into the lunchroom's motley collection of customers and the early, meticulously clean and inviting appearance. More through curiosity than desire, he entered the cleanliness of its interior that drew his fair guess to venture that was not its only sort of breakfast food that the man of moderate age chose was there to be ordered.

And the surpression was that all of these things were to be revenue, in a room which was once a speakeasy. There was another feature of the place that customer's observation. The owner is a white man. Another instance of white progress in a The store, which stands on the corner of Fifth avenue and 137th street, had been idle for twelve months or more. It formerly had housed a speakeasy, but whether it was through lack of influence or lack of the necessary affluence, that surreptitious and highly dubious business was closed to the patrons who found its concoctions to their liking. Thus did it remain so until recently. Several months ago carpenters and fixture men were seen busy around the place. From an idle room, the store began to assume life again. When this was first noted, the first thought that came into this observer's mind was—a new speakeasy. Passing by a few days later, the discovery was made that this theory was all wrong. The store was being remodeled and renovated for an entirely different business. Instead of windows through which the curious could not gaze, the new windows were thin and clear. In place of the customary speakeasy entrance, the doors were wide opened to the view of the public. In short, the former saloon had been converted into an up-to-date lunchroom. Not the sort of lunch place that one would ordinarily expect to find on upper Fifth Avenue. If you know the neighborhood, your first impression would run somewhat like this; "Pearls to swine." You wouldn't imagine Fifth avenue at this point a suitable site for a lunch room with glass-topped tables. Yet that is just what this room contains. And from the casual observations of the writer as he passes by the innovations will repay their installation. Although it is doubtful that this part of Fifth avenue has any representation in the colored "Who's Who," yet it is reasonable to suppose that even these ineligibles may be wooded to places with shining tables and attractive looking food. And when the prices of the food are in harmony with the patrons' cash, the type of customers is of little moment. The writer found this to be quite true a few mornings ago. It was an hour when Harlems all-nighters and early risers were in possession of the streets, the subway, the trolley cars and the lunch counters. Although he had passed the new lunchroom several mornings before while on his day downtown, and observed how cheery and clean it appeared, yet, like many others who are rather finical about the places in which they eat, he had no idea of deserting his downtown eating place. In fact, he thought of Fifth avenue and the speakeasy this particular morning as he glanced into the lunchroom, which, despite its motley collection of customers and the early hour, presented a meticulously clean and inviting appearance. More through curiosity than desire, he entered the place. But if it were the cleanliness of its interior that drew its customers, it was a fair guess to venture that was not its only inducement. Every sort of breakfast food that the man of moderate appetite might wish to choose was there to be ordered. Parker House rolls, water rolls, doughnuts, crullers, buns and French toast. In the fruit pans were stewed prunes, figs and apricots. On ice were single orders of honeydew melons, cantaloupe and oranges, Tempting ham and beans reposed where it could be seen. In brief, the lunchroom's menu compared favorably with Mendel's lunchroom menu in the Grand Central Station. And the surprisig feature of this impression was that all of these things were to be had on upper Fifth avenue, in a room which was once a speakeasy. There was another feature of the place that came under the customer's observation. The owner is a white man, which led to this thought: Another instance of white progress in a black neighborhood NO WONDER Rambling, it must be confessed, in a sort of cue, the pages of that highly informative racial chronicle, Colored America", we were struck by the glaring book of any reference to the registrar history—redcaps and like occupations.

The idea what year this was, although it is followed by the left Denver for the Klondike in 1898. We should the year; but that is not germane to our little husbands. We think we know the secret of Mr. Wilson's son and director of 150,000 Negro ruminants. Any man the Pullman service as a platform man, and has any all, will surely get some valuable experience in the apparently, Brother Wilson received his. We would imply that it was due solely to his training as a agent that he has managed to retain his present greatest fraternal order for the last seven or eight wonder to us now that he has been able to acco Rambling, it must be confessed, in a sort of cursory way through the pages of that highly informative racial chronology, "Who is Who in Colored America", we were struck by the glaring omissions from the book of any reference to the registrars history—as porters, waiters, recaps and like occupations. From the epitomized history of the Whos, few had ever engaged in any of these humble vocations. Most of the biographical sketches had to do with the Who's birth, the schools he attended, his achievements while there, and everything else of note that he had done before reaching the pages of the book, but only a scant number had made any reference to ever having been employed in a menial or drudgery capacity. To go literally by this social and business register, its members are mostly Negroes who have escaped the drudgeries of life so common to the average black American who has arrived at any state of influence among the members of his race. Unless, however, one is going to be naive about them, these omissions will have to be overlooked, for some of these Whos were very good or bad, just as the case may have been, porters, waiters and bootblacks at some time in their history. In this particular respect the average black man differs radically from his white brother. The average successful white man usually refers to his former life of drudgery with pride, whereas, the successful colored brother almost always omits any reference to his, and whenever it is forced from him it generally comes with an apologetic air. In "Who is Who in Colored America" this is clearly apparent. These omissions, however, do not keep the book from being informatively interesting. One of the bits of information we glean from its pages is that J. Finley Wilson, head Elk of all the little and big colored Elks in America, was at one time a Pullman employee. "According to Who's Who, the fraternal ruler served in the Pullman service in the Denver, Colo., district, "being the first colored man to be given the position of platform man." The item doesn't specify in what year this was, although it is followed by the information that he left Denver for the Klondike in 1898. We should like to have known the year; but that is not germane to our little hunch. The hunch is this. We think we know the secret of Mr. Wilson's success as a handler and director of 150,000 Negro ruminants. Any man who has worked in the Pullmah service as a platform man, and has any absorbing abilities at all, will surely get some valuable experience in the handling of men. Apparently, Brother Wilson received his. We would not, to be sure, imply that it was due solely to his training as a Pullman Platform agent that he has managed to retain his present position in the race's greatest fraternal order for the last seven or eight years. But it's no wonder to us now that he has been able to accomplish this arduous and difficult task. "HALLELUJAH" The comments which follow are not intended in any way as an analytic appraisal of the merits of King Vidor's movieietone production of Negro life, which is now being shown at the Lafayette Theatre in Harlem and the Embassy Theatre on Broadway. In the first place, the writer is neither fitted by experience nor trained by technic in the arts of the screen sufficiently to conscientiously render any opinion re The comments which follow are not intended in any way as an analytic appraisal of the merits of King Vidor's movietone production of Negro life, which is now being shown at the Lafayette Theatre in Harlem and the Embassy Theatre on Broadway. In the first place, the writer is neither fitted by experience nor trained by technic in the arts of the screen sufficiently to conscientiously render any opnion re OUT OF TOWN CORRESPONDENCE garding the histrionic features of the picture. In the second place, even though he were so qualified, the interest and hope which he entertains for the success of the production would deter him from any unfavorable comment so far as the picture itself is concerned. Maybe the idea is chimerical, but for some reason or another the writer believes that the Negro is on the threshold of the motion picture world, and his entrance into this realm depends to a considerable extent upon the success of this latest and stupendous offering. From the various comments, which have been read from time to time during its staging, the information is gained that, aside from the large amount of money which has been expended in its production, the labor involved has been of most arduous character. For the foregoing reasons alone, if for no other, the writer wishes the picture and its producer all the success in the world. And it is because of this wish that the following observations are made In beginning these observations, it might be said just here that the promoters of the picture—from personal expressions, and from knowledge of the super-sensitiveness of his people—made a gross error, in allowing the impression to become current that "the patronage of Negroes was not wanted at the Broadway picture house". This impression, however, may be wrong, and its existence may be more imaginary than real, so far as the intent and purpose of the backers are concerned, nevertheless, to the masses of Negroes in this city the impression has been made. Whether the belief was held that the desire to see the much-heralded production would be so great that two theatres would be necessary to accommodate its patrons, and that this probability was more in the minds of the producers than any wish to create a "Jim Crow" situation, is open to question, if expressions in Harlem are a thermometer by which one may guage its Negro residents oral pulse. The writer sincerely hopes that the former probability was really the one which actuated the simultaneous showing of the picture. But whether that was the thought or not, the fact remains Harlem is aggrieved over the situation. And in addition to this situation, there is another feeling. It is this feeling that prompts this reporter to narrate his reactions relative—not to the picture, as said—but to the prices charged to see it in the Lafayette Theatre. Last Sunday was my first opportunity to see the production. It was suggested to my wife that we go down to the Embassy Theatre to see it "No," she replied, "I don't feel like pulling down the subway today, furthermore, it is said that they are not anxious for the patronage of Negroes in that theatre Then, too," she remarked, "what's the use of going downtown, when the program is the same in the Lafayette Theatre?" As all husbands, who try to please their wives know, that ended the matter To the Lafayette we went. We arrived there around six o'clock in the evening. This untheatrical hour was chosen because we wished to avoid the crowd which we felt sure would be milling around the box office after the dinner hour. That no such crowd was there at this time rather surprised us on our exit. Yet, on second thought, the reason was not difficult to understand. The prices to see the picture were surely downtown prices, but the program was decidedly of the uptown variety. As a matter of fact, aside from the picture, the program was noticeably inferior to most of the picture houses in Harlem. Now if the management of The Lafayette is going to charge $150 per person for orchestra seats which was the amounts we paid, it should at least present a program that was halfway consistent with that fee, notwithstanding how much or how little patrons paying that sort of money might think of the main attraction Oh, yes, there was another picture, a sort of comedy affair, which might have been entertaining to children between the ages of five and ten years, really, no modern child over ten would have been amused or even think it was worth looking at. The prices of orchestra seats at the downtown house is not the point. The point is $1 50, or even $1, is entirely too expensive a price for an orchestra chair in the Lafayette. Seemingly, the management of the Herglem house thinks that the principal feature on the program should justify those prices. Peebaps, the patronage of Harlem may be discounted in the success of this Negro production. And for its well-wishers, it would be well if this proves to be the case, for with the present prices at the untown house, and the unfortunate impression that has been created relative to not-wanting Negroes in the downtown theatre, Harlem is not likely to contribute its share of the monetary success to "Halleluph."

As a consequence, one of the boys, Takla Roro, is now a clerk in the National Bank of Egypt, at Khratotum; another, Amano Bango, is a clerk with the Sidan Light and Power Co., and five of them are in commerce. One is dead. One of the five in commerce is Abdisa Birbirro, who returned to Abyssinia as a merchant, and is in Germany. The story of their struggles for an education is a thrilling one. Had To Flee For Life. They first attended school in their native village, the school having been started by the sub-governor, Galla. This official became interested in this particular group of eight boys and gave them all the assistance possible. But the governor, Amhara, was not as enlightened as his subordinate and misinterpreted the latter's activities. As a result, Galla had to ilee for his life. Reaching Adis Ababa, the capita, after settling down, Galla made arrangements with the Swedish Evangelical Mission to take the boys into school. He sent them word and on their arrival they were admitted as students and remained two years. Urged by the desire to secure larger opportunities than were afforded by the mission school at Adis Aouba, the boys decided to go to kilmtoum. Lacking money for rail transportation, they bundled up their belongings and strapped them across their shoulders for the long trip which lay before them. In Trees To Escape Lions In their progress through the jungles, they had all sorts of adventures. Of nights, when the lion, the mighty monarch, began his prowlings in search for food, the boys would seek refuge in the tops of trees, remaining there till daylight came. Many or the days and nights found them drenched to the skin from the tropical storms they passed through, with no change of clothing, and many a mile was plodden with empty stomachs. After thirty-four days of privation and toilsome travel, the boys reached "Khartoum and found a sincere and cordial welcome at the American Mission, where they were received with open arms by Dr. J. Kelly Giffen, "The Good Father." As the boys said, "The welcome really repaid us for all our sufferings." Now five years have passed, and the young Abyssinians have found reward for their efforts. But one of them, Takla Roro, is not content with his bank clerkship, but is planning ping to make his way to Tuskegee Institute for further development.

DOCTORS ANNUAL MEETING MARKED BY FINE PROGRAM DOCTORS ANNUAL MEETING MARKED BY FINE PROGRAM Newark Committee Planned Successfully For Clinics, Demonstrations Newark, N. J.—Working under the slogan "Newark Knows How," the local committee of arrangements for the entertainment of the National Medical Association carried out the most elaborate ad most successful program, ever prepared for a meeting of the Negro's only scientific organization. With clocklike precision, every feature of the program, including papers, addresses, clinics and social diversions, was carried out. Almost every paper listed on the dental and pharmacaceutical were well listed at each meeting. The social features were chosen, but were so arranged that none interfered with the regular activities of the Convention. The clinics were exceptional and the spirit of good will displayed by the staffs of the various hospitals was conducive to the success of a clinical program.

Wright, kept the visiting ladies well entertained, while the delegates were busy attending sectional meetings and clinics. On Tuesday afternoon, a reception was held at the Y. W. C. A. in Orange.

P. THOMAS, Prop. THE NEW YORK AGE Community Drug Store Is Vital Social Centre Newark, N. J—In an adress to the pharmaceutical section of the National Medical Association in convention which met here, James A. Jackson, business specialist in charge of the Small Business Unit of the Domestic Commerce Division, Department of Commerce, declared the drug store to be "The greatest utility, novelty, accessory and convenience mercantile institution in the country." He said that "In addition to dispensing medicines and compounding prescriptions, the pharmacist and the store functioned as the "Big Brother" to the community and the social centre of the community." Because of this community service, he expressed the opinion that the druggist is deserving of every legitimate help available to business that he might better meet this obligation of service. He said that the Domestic Commerce Division through its Inquiry, research and statistical sections stands ready to provide the druggist with tabulated information upon which each may find his decisions on business problems. "The drug business" says Jackson, "Involves more than $4,224,109,000 of retail business annually. According to the 1926 figures, the latest available until the 1930 census of distribution will have been completed, there were 221,700 outlets in retail trade in this line. The per, capita average purchases were $22.05. 259 per cent of this went for drugs, chemicals and prescriptions, 235 per cent for Ice Cream and soft drinks, and 74 per cent for toilet articles and preparations 3 ROOMS FOR RENT Electricity—White Sinks—Newly Painted Extremely Low Rent Office on Premises 203-223 West 63rd St. APARTMENTS TO LET "We have vacancies in the following houses, having steam heat, hot water, white sinks and electric lights throughout: 7 West 135th Street—5 rooms 44 West 135th Street—4 and 5 rooms and bath. 130 West 142nd Street—6 rooms and bath. 129 West 137th Street—5 rooms and bath. 232 West 122nd Street—8 rooms and bath & 4 basement rooms. 2573 Eighth Avenue—4 rooms and bath.
