John W. Schenck, In Office administration, Discloses Ch ill-Fame In 4 States, With
Investigation of "White Slave" Racketeers In Boston By Colored Assistant United States Attorney
By Rienzi B. Lemus

Boston, Mass.—Staid Boston has its racketeers of the underworld. The racket is not chiefly "hooch" nor mainly "numbers." It's white slavery," which is a Federal crime. The racket is alleged to include several cities of adoining states. And this ex-seat of culture, Federal authorities have reason to suspect, is seat of the alleged "white slavery" racket. The Negro is not involved; that is not in the racket. He is very much in the investigation. Hence, Mitchell Named As this story.
"Taken For a Ride."
The city was going its accustomed way, assured at least of its after-day stupidity and the same old codfish—if not baked beans, reeling upon such occasional outbursts as might be afforded by Sacco-Vanzetti squawkers, on Boston Common, and ridicule of its non-literary Mayor in the role of sensor of maybe risque books for excitement, when one Riststein (almost like New York's Rothstein of similar ilk) was "taken for a ride," obviously by his compatriots of the racket. Then the work started.
The U. S. District Attorney and the District Attorney of Suffolk County took dual charge and the former asserts in a written statement to the Press that it "appears at a regular circuit of houses of all-fame is established in a chain of cities in Massachusetts, Rhode Island New York and Pennsylvania."
50 Murders Are Charged.
The Federal prosecutor further states "It appears that no less than fifty murders are traceable to this traffic, and to disputes between propropriets and operators. No less than eight murders have occurred within the last few weeks on this circuit alone." The U. S. District Attorney's office conducted this investigation through "Mr. Clark, assistant to the U. S. Attorney and Mr. John Weschin, Assistant United States Attorney," District Attorney Tarr's statement begins, and they have already discovered that "The unfortunate girls who play the circuit are shipped from one house to another as a regular business program," he added.
Investigator Is Colored.
Assistant U. S. Attorney Schenk is colored, and well well known in New York, as well as generally throughout the East. He has served continuously since the beginning of the - Harding regime, when the Democrats of the Wilson administration were ousted, and has been actively engaged in Federal Court in charge of the Government's cases during the period. It was not possible for District Attorney Poley of Suffolk County (Bilton) to also assign a colored assistant to this racketeer investigation for the all sufficient reason that not even National, Afro-Democrat Generalissimo, Julian Dame, can get Foley, for whom evidently worked at nomination, are collecting, to name a Neo-Democrat. Mr. Senecik kept the U. S. Marshals office busy locking up the alleged operators of the establishments which make the continuity of what U. S. District Attorneys Tarr terms "the white slave." circuit.

NEW C. O. S. OFFICE OPENED IN HARLEM, 81 EAST 125th ST.
Mt. Morris District Is Created, Miss Mickel Director in Charge
---
On October 1, the Charity Organization Society will open a new neighborhood office in Harlem at 81 East 125th street, to be called Mt Morris District, according to an announcement made by Lawson Purdy, director of the C. O. S. 195 East 22nd street. This will be the ninth district office maintained by the Society on Manhattan Island.
"We are opening this second office in Harlem," said Mur. Purdy, "not because we find Harlem has more delinquency, more social problems than other parts of Manhattan—which statement has been unfairly made from time to time—but because we realize that for the size of the population living in Harlem they are not receiving nearly the leadership and help they should from our civic and welfare agencies. Other and less congested parts of the island have long had dable the opportunities for health, employment and normal living conditions."
Miss Nickel Heads Office
"We are placing Miss Lucille Nickel, one of our best trained social workers, at the head of the new Mt Morris office," said Mr. Purdy, "Miss Nickel is a graduate of the University of Washington State, and of our New York school of Social Work. She will have a staff of both white and colored social workers, probably six in number with which to start.
"We estimate from the territory this office will cover, which is from 105th street north to Harlem River, between Third and Fifth avenues, that the staff will be serving about an equal number of white and colored families. We will serve Catholics, Protestants and all others who do our other districts," said Mr. Purdy, "for the C O S. is nineteen-scientian, one of its fundamental principles being that it helps those in trouble 'without regard to race, creed or color'"
To Support New Office
"We anticipate that some of the support of our Mt. Morris office will come from the colored group itself," said Murpry, "for our other Harlem office has had an increasingly generous support from Negro residents who know of the work. Last year the pastor of one of Harlem's largest churches gave us a check for $500 from his parishioners, for work in Harlem. He stipulated it should be for the 'needy of Harlem, whether white or colored."
"Just so, our new district will give its services on no basis other than the need of the individual for advice and help."
"Our experience in Harlem," concluded Mr. Purdy, "has been that the colored family's trouble is capable of being restored to self-reliance just as quickly as the white family. The differences that are evident in a family's desire for self-help, are individual, not racial.

Kentucky Zion Methodists Vote In Favor of Organic Union With A.M. E. Church By a Vote of 55 to One
Bishops Clement, Walls and Jones Speak Earnestly In Favor of the Proposed Amalgamation of the Two Religious Bodies
Louisville, Ky.—By a vote of 55 to 1, the annual conference of A. M. E. Zion Church, in session here, went on record as favoring organic union between the A. M. E. Zion and A. M. E. Churches. This action followed a heated debate participated in by three bishops, one presiding elder and a half dozen ministers.
Bishop George C. Clement explained that after the annual conferences have acted on the question, it will be submitted to the various general conferences for ratification. The A. M. E. Church will retain its eighteen bishops and the A. M. E. Zion will keep its twelve, with thirty episcopal districts. Both churches will retain eight general officers for eight years and a two-thirds vote will be required to elect a bishop. There are 600,000 members in the A. M. E. Church and 450,000 in the A. M. E. Zion or theological seminary owned, operated and financed entirely by Negroes, but that if the two denominations unite they could turn some of their schools into first class hospitals and homes for supernauated ministers.

"When Dr P. J. Bryant died last Sunday, Atlanta lost one of her greatest citizens. For thirty-one years he has been pastor of Wheat Street Church, the largest Negro Baptist church in the South. He was a tower of strength in this community. His testimony was always clear and strong and sound and Christ-like. He was an educated man, a profound student of the Bible, a powerful leader of men, surpassing greather, a pastor with the shepherd heart. Throughout the United States he was regarded as one of the leaders among Negro Baptists."

committee rendered a decision sustaining the charges. Under the law as set forth in the Church Discipline, a member against whom a judgment has been rendered by a committee on trial may appeal from the judgment by filing such appeal within thirty days. 'Thus the appellants did. The church law provides that "appeals regularly taken shall be heard by the proper Appellate Court unless it shall appear to the said court that the appellant has forfeited his right to appeal by misconduct, such a refusal to abide by the findings of the 'Trial Court, etc.'
Forfeited Appeal Right.
In the hearing of their appeal on September 20, in the St. James M. E. Church, 125th street, and Madison avenue, it was charged by counsel for the church, Attorney Vernal J. Williams, that the appellants had forfeited their rights to an appeal by continuing to publish articles in the St. Marks, Bulletin, distributing them among the membership of the church, during the interim between their expulsion by the church and the hearing of their appeal.
The Tryers of Appeals sustained this contention and the expulsion of the three men, Hodges, Monroe and Thomas, was affirmed.
Sav Action Ia Final.
It is said by church officials that this action is final and that the expelled men have no further recourse in the matter of regaining membership in St. Mark's save that of appearing in person before the church, pleading penitence and asking forgiveness.
Reason for their antagonism to the church administration, it is alleged, is found in their friendship and support of two former trustees, died in reelection. First was R. S. Dyer, who was defeated for reelection by a vote of 419 to 431. The next year, W. L. Handy met the same fate by a vote of 412 to 120, and the next year brought the defeat of Mr. Monroe, one of the appellants, by a vote of 264 to 3.

Intermingling with these colors, were those ladies of exquisite clairm and beaurel carved their gorgone and quite becoming evening gowns dancing with their hands beautiful, to the rhythmic music of Clarence Profit and his Profiteers. The souvenir programs proved quite a novelty. The ladies were all too busy reserving dances for favorites.
The presentation took place at about 12:30 a.m. and Henry C. Parker jr., of the Y. M. C. A., the honored guest of the evening, certainly did put it across. Punch was served, made by none other than the popular Miss Thelma Yancey of club "La Classique."

J. H. Morford, who for almost 25 years has been a teacher and in dependent missionary in Lagos, Nigeria, West Africa, arrived home aboard the Acquainita Friday, September 27. Mr. Morford brought with him his native wife, who is a beautiful and charming, woman, and the largest collection of native affluent from the good-carving and leather-work that has been this reporters privilege to see:
Mr. Morford was originally from Chattanooga, Tenn. He was educated in the public schools of that city, at the Portland, Maine, High School, at Ugaloo University, Misa. At the La Salle University he was fired with an ambition to take the torch of enlightenment to what he thought a that time were his savage brothers. His views on this subject have since been challenged by his brothers, he told an Age reporter, they can by no stretch of the imagination be considered an inferior people. His more than twenty years contact with the youth of that country has proven to him that he has the possibilities for development in any other racial group.
A British Protectorate
Nigeria is under the protection of the British Government, and Mr. Morfond declared that the British are liberal in their policy to tolerate the views of the people. He also described the educational institutions in the country under auspices of the British government. Special emphasis is laid on health education, says Mr. Morfond. The young men are sent out from the schools as sanitary inspectors and the brightest pupils are sent to England to enter the universities to fit themselves for the medical profession. A number of the young men are sent to America, to study agriculture.
Granddaughter of Chief
Mrs. Morford is not the ordinary type of native African woman. She belongs to the House of Olumu of Brohemi, and is a grand-daughter of the late Chief Nana of Akoko. She speaks English perplexity and is a native in every way. She received her education in Leeds, King, and was a teacher in the government schools of Nigeria when she met Mr. Morford. Both were highly thought of by their associates in Kings College, Lagos, Nigeria, where Mr. Morford has just received her retired as assistant head master. In addition to their fine collection of native African art, they brought, with them stereotypic views of the native life of the country. They plan a lecture tour of Negro schools and colleges throughout the country. In New York, they are the guests of Mr. and Mrs. James A. Reid of 233 West 100th street

Interracial Commission Seen As An Important Adjunct In Improvement Of Race Relations In United States

Miss Carney said; in that it was started by Southern white persons. Schools incineration, sewage disposal, transportation and recreation centers are among the community problems solved many cities, largely through the efforts of this body.
Lecture Series Planned.
Announcement also was made of a gift of $1,000 from the Rosenwald Fund to Teachers College to bring to the college specialists on education education education education series of ten lectures during the winter session, which began September 25.
One hundred and fifty Negroes are registered in Teachers College Education Education Club has been organized under auspices of the rural education department, which has as its primary purpose the publication of accurate information about the Negro race in two courses on Negro education in the United States will be offered.
Progress Found Retarded.
Miss Carney, who also is president of the rural education department of the National Educational Association, said that despite the progress in education at the Negro in the New York district, he retarded and inadequate. She added that this, condition is largely the result of the Federal government's failure to help the Southern states with the expense of educating Negro pupils of the Southern practice of segregating white and Negro pupils, according to Miss Carney is the tendency to use a part of the taxes paid by the Negro for the education of the children. This is impossible she added, when both races attend the same schools.
"Only one-fifth of the opportunity afforded to white children for education is given to the Negro," declared Miss Carney, "a survey of children in the state, and recently in a Southern state and it was found that four counties were using money collected from the state on the basis of the number of children of both races in the county, the improvement of white schools."
Whites Get the Money
"In practically every Southern state a disproportionate amount of money is expended upon white and Negro education. It is one of the state's disproportionate of segregation. In only one state, Delaware, opportunities for the Negro in the public schools as good as those afforded the white, North Carolina leads the Southern states in this respect, and notable progress has been made in the state of Georgia. Fundamentally the Southern states are making praiseworthy efforts, but they are handicapped by a lamentable lack of funds. There is only $5,000 of property valuation and the average age of children in the Southern, where as the Northern and Western states the average is close to $35,000 a child."
Statistics published in the announcement of the rural education department emphasize the importance of the national status of Negro education in the United States. The 1,200,000 Negroes in the United States live in the report, constitute about 10 of the total population of the country. About 85 per cent of the Negroes live in the South, and 66 per cent in rural settlements. About 23 per cent of the Negroes are illiterate.
Need More Negro Teachers.
The total number of Negro public school teachers in fourteen Southern states is about 45,000. 74 per cent of whom are in rural
schools. "Since only 68 per cent. of all Negro children are enrolled in school, the report continues, "and since such schools, as exist are badly overcrowded (averaging fifty children a teacher), is is evident that we need fully twice as many Negro teachers as we have."
For the United States as a whole, the expenditure per capita for Negroes of school age average of that ifor white, school children.

Secretaries of Urban League Meet in Ohio
Columbus, Ohio.-Secretaries of the National Urban League in the middle west. area met here Saturday, September 28, to make plans for an extensive campaign for larger, openings in the conference, T. Arnold Hill of New York, the League's Director of Industrial Relations, issued the following statement:
"The purpose of the conference was to make out a unified program for the conference on better jobs for Negroes. The loss of places which members of the race have been accustomed to fill make it imperative that they seek employment elsewhere. A spirit of optimism prevailed throughout the conference, for our secretries were for the conference because of losses in employment. Being familiar with employment possibilities, they see new fields of labor to which both men and women have gone recently and have faith that there are at least some compensation for Negroes who feel for the losses sustained in the older ones.
"A similar conference of secretaries in the East is to be held in New York within, the next two weeks, the proposals of our conference here

LABOR SECRETARY TELLS CATHOLICS OF NEGRO LABOR Says A. F. of L. Wants All Workers Without Regard to Color
By THOMAS B BURKE
Baltimore, Md.—The importance of organizing to develop and to give the power to demand and protect the common man in his right to govern himself, this country's prosperity had an other apostle when in his address to the audience assembled at St. Peter Claver Hall, in conference on the Negro in American Industry, in the Indoor Association Conference on Industrial Problems and the Federated Colored Catholics of America, John Frey, secretary, Metal Trades Union, American Federation of Labor, Washington, D. "Unions and The Negro" at the afternoon session on Saturday.
Negro Is Wanted.
"The A. F. L. wants not only the Negro, but it wants within its fold all workers, regardless of race, creed or politics. The Federation type of organization is peculiarly fitted to most effectually protect all workers, because the employer depends absolutely today on the consent of the employer to make a living—the Has no chance for individual development, since machines and more machines, are displacing thousands of hand workers. But you must organize to preserve the right to not also become so mechanized in a large extent the human personality. Mr. Frey candidly admitted the fragrant handicaps and injustices meted out to colored workers as such, "but Jews, Italians, workers from Central and Southern Europe and the near East find the same prejudices, only it is lodged against the foreigners." The bugaboo of race-prejudice is at base by numbers.
To Combat Prejudice.
The whites-develop other prejudices against, each other-regional prejudices for example, but the Trade Union movement has consistently worked to combat this and all other forms of injustice. Injury done to one individual or to one group, if unchecked in its early stage, will soon affect all workers.

"About two years ago, I was in ill health. I suffered a great deal with my disfigurement. I was so weak I could hardly stand it if I had to stand any length of time.

The pain and soreness left my side, and I quit having the headache much better. I took Gardul off and on for a year. Now I am in good health; have been for a year." For sale by all druggists.

recently and the leaders of the trust have never given Mr. Prey cooperation in his efforts to improve the organization, he asserts. "The moral support given by the churches at the present time, especially the invaluable aid given by the learned economist, is very encouraging. All that men can do for others is to give them an opportunity. The opportunity must be given to Negroes to graduate. With increased earnings, come automatically improvement in every phase of living conditions.

FOR BETTER BUSINESS METHODS.
A six weeks campaign for better ‘busi-
ness among Negroes is promised for
New York, as a stimulus*for the imprqve-
ment of retailing methods. This .move-
merit will be under the auspices of the
National Negro Business League and the
United States Department of Commerce,
funder the direction of Mr. Albon L. Hol-
sey of Tuskégee, who is secrétary of-the

age and train the small merchant in bet-

Two previous campaigns of this char.
acter have been conducted by Mr. Hol-
sey, one at Winston-Salem, North Caro-
lina, and the other at Montgomery, Ala-
ma, with notable results. At the fore

merchants showed a growth of from six-
ty to seventy per cent.” due to the adop-
tion of improved méthods, and similar

enabled the merchants to purchase in
larger quantities at reduced rates and up.
on better terms. It gave them higher
standing with the wholesalers and
brought about increased respect for their
suggestions as to promoting salés of cer.
tdin specialties, It also led td, the inclu-
sion of coloréd women as demonstrators

brought increased sales. 3
This matter of helping the smaller
merchants to improve their business
methods is not confined to Negro busi:
ness by. any means. It is a fundamental
quéstion involving .interests all over the
country. The smaller merchants among
the whites need the same trainlig and en:

EDUCATIONAL’ OPPORTUNITY.
Teachers College of Columbia Univer-
sity had assumed a part it the program
for improving: interracial relations, aé-
jeording to a statement made by Prot
Mabel Carney, at the opening of the fall
term. It wis announcéd that the college
will brig to jts platform some of the
leading authorities on Negra education
and interracial relations for ten lectures,
showing the nécessity for work in this
field, Among the spéakers alréady an-
nounced are Dr. Will Aléxandér and
Jackson Ward. |
One of the purposes to be served
through these leetures is to gett white
teachers interested in the~ problem of
Negro education, Educational opportun-
ity for the Negro child is stated to be
through these lectures is to gét white
thild, ond of the reasons for this dispar-
ity, being. that furids designed for Negro
schools are. oftén diverted to white
schools by county superintendénts in the
South. Thig condition has. lohg been
known among Negroes and protests
made against. such diversion, but’ with
little effect in most cases. It is well that
the. fact should be made widély known
among educational authorities, constitut-
ing as it docs one of the greatest handi-
caps ta the education of thé race.’
“Credit is given the Negro group for
being keen about. education, no other
group equalling their intense desire to
obtain its benefits. In fact too much
stress is sometimes laid upon the bene-
fits to be acquired from education, imthat
it is lookéd upn as fytnishing « solu-
tion to all the “problems of éxistence
Miss Carney cited the case of one hun-
dréd and twenty childrén crowded into a
one-room school in the South, with many
more storming the doors and windows to
get admittance.. The opportunity offered
for;education was pronounced too limited.
the statement recently made that
there are: many states in the South whére
Negroes have better schools than whites
was pronounced absurd, there bing only
one staté, according to Miss Carney.
where their scHools were even as good
43 the white schools, That was in Dela-
ware, where the famous family of Duponts
have put large sums of money into the es.
stablishment and méintenance of schooli
jfor Negrdées. Miss Carney thought thal
the South as a whole was making fine ef-
forts toward Negro education, but that
théy have. not as much money for theit
white children as Northern and Weitern
states have, The thirteen states at the
bottom of the list are all Séuthern. She
thinks that only through Federal aid wil
the South get enough monéy for éducat:
ing its childrep.” If such aid was left tc
be distributed through Southern agen.
cies, it is doubtful how much would gc
]to the education of Negroes,
While Miss Carney differs in this re.
Spéet from Dr. Knight, the Southern edu-
cator, who held the South responsible for
Jits own defieiendies. in educational facil
ties, her activities should stimulate inter-
ést in the education of both races.
Belore the adjournment of the assem-
bly of the League of Nations at, Geneva
last month it was announced that the
proposal of the délegate from Liberia,
for the appointment of a commission to
investigate the chatges that slavery ex.
isted in the West African republic, had
been adopted and that the League would
appoint one of the members of said cém-
mission, Another member is to be ap-
pointed by the United States govern-
ment*and the third by the Liberian gov-
érnment. While the Liberian delegate
denied the existence of slavery the ré-
peated assertions of such a condition
made by representatives of British satér-
este, have made sich an investigation de-
sirable. . *
As the Léague of Nations: will preb-
ably appoint gome European familiar
with African cdriditiohs a5 a member of
the commission, it becomes néeéssary for
the United States to designate someone
of ite cititens, who should posséas the
requisite qualities to serve as an investi:
fttor of the sime conditions, There are
few°men of either race who can present
markéd qualifications for auch a post.
Most of the’ men who have served in
Liberia in either 4 civil or miiltary em

Grace Church of Harlem
a beautiful Sunday morning served to bring out most of the congregation to Grace Church to the morning service. It was the first appearance of the congregation since his first trip to camp, and he was a welcome figure in the pulpit. Dr. Garner took his text from the 10th chapter of Matthew, and as his theme "The Signs of the Times." In a forceful well delivered service, Dr. Garner told the congregation has grown expanded since the birth of Christ, and how if we wish to grow in grace and be up to the minute Christians we must embrace a wider and more unselfish christianity. The sermon was most inimitable to Garner at a point after point in a discourse which held the congregation interested throughout the sermon hour. Four persons accepted the fellowship call from the pastor and were received into the congregation faith Martine Strout Walter A. Strood Nellie Watts and A. W. DeMunck

A ten-day celebration of the 132nd anniversary of Mother A. M. E. Zion Church began last Sunday morning, with the opening sermon by Bishop J. S. Caldwell of Philadelphia, NY. The New York Conference Every seat in the spacious auditorium was filled. At the close of the service twenty-nine persons united with the church.

Music was furnished by the Junior Church and Lyceum choirs. At 8 p.m. Dr Brown preached on the 17th of October the "The Church and the Community." He said in part: "In the closing verses of this chapter. Christ foretells of His second coming and of some of the things, that people will be saved from the evil world in the days of Noah, among the lost will be those who are continually seeking to save themselves. The great sin mentioned is that of selfishness which is seen too often to tolerate. Of Individuals, churches and nations."
Narrowness, bigotry jealousy and strife are bound in some of our denominations, even in some of our local churches, but this condition is not so bad. We have our denominations, and we continue to have them—but they should not draw us apart, or dissolve our fraternity. We all preach Christ. We all sing the same hymns and songs, and we all pray in His Name. And, we should hand over to give the right hand of fellowship.
Is the church seeking to save her life or lose it? Many are answering this question in the affirmative. Every day some one in newspaper, magazine or speech is telling us about the trouble with the church. They tell us that the church membership, that she is working daily to strengthen her own organization, and to increase her own finances, that she is self-centered, that there is very little coordination between her and the community, that she does not properly sympathize with the progress and problems of her leadership, numbered. Some tell us that people are not going to church, that church love is waning, that laymen are losing interest
The sneaker quoted some excerpts from Carter, Woodson's History of the Negro Church: "He speaks of a number of Negroes who came out of the Federal Church in the city, and set up housekeeping for themselves in the year 1795, among whom were Francis Clement, William Brown Peter Williams, Abram Thompson James Pope, Samuel Pender, Thomas H. Ward, William Varecki William Hamilton. Soon after, this group, designated as the

He saw his wife's mother lying sick with the fever, as found in the 14th verse of the Gospel, his gospel according to St. Matthew. Emphasizing his subject, "The Art of Noticing." Rev. Johnson said: "The word art carries with it the thought of beauty as contrasted with that which is dull and that, in use, cultivates Jesus possessed that art. The Bible is full of instances when men really noticed—saw beneath the surface of things, but the life of Christ, as the crown of the new Testament responder."

or understood that those thousands were hungry and He fed them. Again when Christ was in the temple, He saw the woman give a penny in the basket and He knew she all. And she was blessed because was the Widow's Mite. In the instantation of the text Christ saw the suffering woman and he made her well.
"Unfortunately, there are those among us who never really see things until they are hit in the face, as it were. The finest things in life are the things beneath the surface and until we learn to perceive and understand, we miss the best. The Prairie is but only the minor and the unimaginable the flaws in the human character. We must not only learn to observe but we must also respond to human ills and weakness. We must help and in so doing we will receive help ourselves. A New Enchanted poet once wrote, 'Speak only of the man in others. And notice that who is dead and irredient When we have learned do that' then we will have really cultivated the art of noticing."
Flowers for the altar were contributed by a sincere friend with best wishes for the success of St. Martin's. Kevin Louis Hunton Berry, rector of St. Philip's Church, Newark, N. J., spoke at the evening service.

Union Baptist Church
During the past week, a shadow crept over our church. Death claimed one of our most loyal members, Mrs Lucy Lloyd, who was more than twenty years old. She served in every department of the church. Her special work was among the young people. She was beloved by all who knew her. The funeral was conducted in a quiet way. A number of resolutions were read. Pastor S. mrs spoke from the text, and spent years as a tale that is told: "He was assigned in the service by Rev. Robert Johnson, John Joseph and James R. Moe. She leaves to mourn their loss a number of relatives, a husband and a host of friends. Her husband, W. H Lloyd, is an active worker in Union. She reporting a large number attended the Sunday school. The lesson was introspective. 10:45 a.m. there was a special conference of all leaders.

Mrs. Harris of Richmond, Va., and Mrs. Matthews, secretary of the New York convention. Twelve persons united with him. The closing message for the day was delivered by Dr. L. M. Glenn of Savannah, Ga. His subject was "Games of Youth and the Hell of War." The message was interesting and well delivered. Offered amount to $88,824.
Mt. Olivet Baptist Church
The morning service at the Mr. Olivet Baptist Church, Sunday September 29, was well attended. Ephesians 5:14 was the text cheered by the pastor. Rev. W P Hayes, therefore he saith, Awake thou thou sleepest and arise from the dead light and give thee light "Subject a Call takefulness and Duty." He spoke how the Negro race is asleep and how squanders fortunes in frustilities, foolishness and pleasure, while others are trying to keep him asleep. He explained that sleep means inaction indifference, helplessness or action without reason, acts; and that sleep and sloth have no place on the spiritual program.
A quartet of the Princess Ann Academy sang two selections, and Mr Carol a blind solosist, gave one selection. The many out-of-town visitors were welcomed by the pastor.
The two Bible classes met at their final教室 Rev. Hayes taught the Philadelphian Class and the lesson was instructive and inspiring.

P, U. program was under the auspices of the Helping Hand Club and was well rendered. At the evening service, the pastor's text was the first clause of the Bible. Behold God is mighty and despised. The outstanding facts outlined was how God, unlike man, judges not by products alone, but the spirit in which something is done. If one does the best he can, even if he is wrong, the opinion of man, he is recognized. Seven people joined church during the day.
St. James Pres. Church
The fact that playtime is over and St. James Presbyterian Church has settled down to its fall and winter program with earnestness and splendid and appreciative audience which dearest Dr. Wm. Lloyd: limes on last Sunday morning.
At the evening hour the Ladies Home and Foreign Missionary Society has encouraged enthusiasts and ingesting meeting with time a drive was launched to secure greater interest, in and the largest attendance possible for the School of Missions which opens there during the month of November. The first communion service of the fall will be held, and, as is customary in St. James, there will be no address by the pastor. In the evening the Corinthian Lodge, Inde-zerland, United Scottish Mechanies, will hold their thanksgiving service at this church.
St. Paul Baptist Church
The "Pageant of Nations" given by and under auspices of the Lady Usher Board of the church, led by Mrs. Maria Cheaves, was a woman who was well known from the start to the finish, kings, escorting the queens, together with the pages, made a beautiful sight to behold. The recitations and solos by the younger people were excellent, and the people went wild over them. The financial relief was gratifying. Friday night, in accord with promise, the pastor lead the prayer service, and, though the members had been out late just the night before, there was a large gathering to this meeting. One was impressed with the fact that Patricia Doyle came when it gets down to it, and this was proved Friday night and Sunday morning. John Doughty had out quite a number of people early Sunday morning, and they certainly prayed. He dropped in on them for a visit, and in on the glad by what he heard and felt
At the 11 o'clock service all things were keyed to the highest patch. Madam Scott, the organist, having returned, was at her post in the courtyard, and the choir, lifted its voice, performed. From that time on, the service was full of spiritual enthusiasm. The singing of the choir was wonderful and the pastor was at his very best, preaching on the theme, the Body. He told the people that he was in the fort at preaching on that theme, but, before he was through, the people were lifted to an unusual spiritual height. Dr. W. W. Brown, pastor of Metropolitan, came in the after the performance, in his own sister Leslie Doughty, who red the whole audience, preached a most wonderful sermon on "The Results of Loyalty and Disloyalty To God." This message will do much good, we are certain that the whole day will be spent, spoke in the evening for a short time in "Compelling Power."
It was the time of the third quarterly rally of the church, and before ten o'clock the various auxiliaries had made their reports. We had Rev. Parry to worship with us at the evening service.
Concord Baptist Church
Rev. William Percy, Baptist missionary to Costa Rica, filled the pulpit morning and evening. He spoke on church unity, using Paul's letter to the Philippian church as text, and plainly emphasizing the causes of strife within the body of the church of Paul to let your conversation inspire be such as becometh the church. The power of Mr. Ferd as an enthusiastic speaker, was not fully exhibited until the evening service when he took the Book of Acts as a text and showed indisputably that Christian missions is not an optional matter but an obligatory church, and that the church cannot expect blessing that the carver on missions. His dogic and sentiment backed by his exceptional knowledge.
Today of Scripture, write entirely convincing. This served as a preface to his explanation of his presence in America and, in churches, attempting to raise $2,000 to protect the Baptist mission at Costa Rica from annihilation. Through the generosity of the congregation Mr. Ford received $30. The B. P. Y. V. attendance must be eighty to one hundred persons, most of whom could be termed as belonging to the younger generation. The lesson was taught in groups as usual and followed by a special feature, a female trio, "The Concordia," singing "By an By" and Hard Trials. The entire meeting was filled and profitable. This young people's group was out under the combined leadership of Miss Brown and Mr. Westbrook.
Siloam Presbyterian Church
In view of the approaching season of reconstruction and resuming the activities of church in all of its boards and organizations, Dr. George Shippen Stark, pastor, Siloam Church, took the text for his morning discourse from St Mark 9:23. He emphasized the truth that we all need to go back to faith in a loving Heavenly Father who has manifested Himself in His Son. The question of the text is the very question of the text and represents the attitude today in the religion and also the unchanging attitude of Christ towards the world.
It is difficult for the world to come to that standard, "If thou canst believe." It portrays the world and God's attitude as they face each other. All things are believable, and all things are believable seems absurd and modern world. Every one has his creed concerning God and His things. Even the Christian would stand amazed, if he should see plainly before him his creed. The great enemy of the church of both God and secularism. We are too busy building onesided lives, many have given God altogether and have abandoned all religion, believing that the power to do things-must be in ourselves, this is as prevalent among the church and mothers as well as among the church and any in the church have become dead weight by not using the power God has given them.
Stating that this year marked the 1900th anniversary of the gift of the Holy Spirit to the world, Dr. Pleased that all need go back to the Lord, loving Heavenly Father manifested His Son and resolve to give ourselves in service to accomplish the will of God.

The big auditorium was packed to the doors Sunday night, to help the speakers, in protest against the color line in the church. Dr. H. M. Proctor, pastor, while deploying the color line in any church showed how under present conditions, no color line is drawn, no color line is used for the colored people. Dr. Paul E. Baker, white Texan, made a strong plea for the open door for all races in the church. William Pickens of the N. A. A. C. P. showed how the act of Dr. Blackheath was on a par with the downward thrust of the majority in other cities. The choir was assisted by Misa Winifred Gordon, who sang "In the Desert." Many prominent white as well as colored people were in the audience.
At the morning hour the pastor made a strong plea, for the right use of time, basing his serenity on the question, "Had you but one to live, He held that if each knew his he would get right with himself, his fellowmen and his God.

Lawrenceville, Va.-The Lincoln University football team opened its 1929 season Friday, September 27, by winning a 12-6 victory 'over the St. Paul Tigers. In the first quarter of the game it looked as though the Lions would be defeated, as the local team was on the offensive and threatened to score twice.
In the second quarter the Lions running attack got under way with Harmon, Clarke and Lewis making first downs around the ends and through the line. Jim Anderson made the first touchdown by plunging through the line for five yards. He failed to kick the goal, however. Just before the quarter ended Jack Lewis made a 30-yard run around left end to St. Paul's 45-yard line.
Lincoln used her running attacks to great advantage in the third quarter, mixing a few forward passes with end runs and smashes off tackle. In this manner the Lion backs brought the ball to St. Paul's three-yard line and Jack Lewis dove through center for the second touchdown. Jerry Harmon missed a drop kick for the extra point.
The St. Paul touchdown came as a result of a blocked kick. Lincoln kicked off to St. Paul, Smith receiving, the ball. The Tigers rushed the ball to Lincoln's twenty yard line but here the Lincoln line held and the ball fell over on down the Anderson attempt to punt out of danger but his kick was blocked by-Wicks and Wells, the St. Paul star end, covered the ball back of Lincoln's goal for the touchdown. Murphy missed the try for the point after touchdown.
In the final quarter Jim Anderson and Murphy staged a punting duel, with Anderson having a slight advantage. The game ended just as Jerry Harmon broke through center and was stopped one foot short of the Tigers goal line.
Lincoln made 14 first downs to the Tigers' 5. The visitors also completed 4 forward passes out of 10 attempts to 3 by St. Paul out of 7 attempts.

ST. LOUIS STARS SPLIT TWO GAMES WITH LINCOLNS Western Team Is On Its First Eastern Tour and Big Crowd Sees Game
One of the largest crowds of the season was present at the Protectory Oval Sunday, September 29, to witness the doubleheader between the Lincoln Giants and the St. Louis Stars, who are on an eastern tour. The Giants staged a batting spree and won the first game by a score of 18-7 but faltered in the other, allowing the visitors to win by a score of 8-4. Davis was on the mound for the Stars for five innings during the first game. He held the local team to three scattered hits until the fifth. Then Rector, who was pitching for the Lincoln started a rally with a single and five runs were scored before the inning was over.
Six Runs In 6th Inning
J. Williams and Madlock were used by St. Louis in the sixth, but six runs were made despite their efforts. Hensley finished the game. The fans saw home runs by B. Russell and Riggins, triples by Wells, Beckwith (who made two) and by Rojo, who returned to his nativeuba tuesdays by Redus and Creacy for the Stars and Melton, Smith, Riggins, Lloyd and Rector, for the Gmstz.

Trent held the Giants to six scat-
tered hits for the second game

James McCoy of the St. Nicholas Golf Club of this city, who recently won the eastern open championship, added to his laurels last week by capturing the New Jersey open title on the links of the Shady Rest Country Club of Westfield. McCoy scoring 75 in the morning, field came back in the afternoon, getting birdies and pars with ease. Reaching the 17th tree with 60 for the 16 holes. McCoy was compelled to tape a 5 and 6 on the last two holes, which were played in the dust. His 75 and 70 for a total of 145 led the field by four strokes. Louis Corbin, his clubmate, was runner up with 76 and 73 for a total of 149. The senior championship, held at the same time, was won by the experienced champion, Earl Adams, now residing in Roselle, N. J. Mr. Adams only started playing golf this spring and has made wonderful progress, as his 90 and 84 show.
Hitch-Hikes to Howard From New Orleans
Washington, D. C.-With two pennants and a knapsack on his back, and his hat in his hand, Alexander Gordon hitch-hired from New Orleans to Howard University, arriving here Wednesday.
Thirteen he was his lucky number for he had many rides. Through the streets "the man he attracted passing motorists." As a car approached he would stand aside, doff his hat and smile. Thirteen times the suggestion worked, though many more times it failed.
It required nine days to make the trip, walking on an average of twenty-five miles a day. Some days he was hucky enough to get a lift in the morning. At other times no one preaked him up until late in the afternoon. And while he was trudging northward to himself "Washington or Bust."
To most of the people he told his story only in part, namely, that he was going to Washington to work, while to others he admitted that he was going to work his way through college. He said that he was afraid that his ambition might defeat the purpose for which he had hailed the passing car. Upon arriving in Washington he went directly to the Twelfth Street Y. M. C. A., where he spent the night resting up for his last long mile and the test at the end of the road.
At Howard he traded his hikers outfit for football togs and immediately plunged into practice with the zest of mid-session football. With all round him, he hit the dummy like a demon and ate the dust with a hiker's appetite.
In New Orleans he had heard much of Howard and had been impressed by the successful achievement of Howard graduates. He determined that upon graduating from high school he too would go to Howard, even if he had to walk all the way from New Orleans to Washington.
He had played football in high school and avoided dissipation. This coupled with his youth and 175 pounds of bone and brawn well fitted him for the ordeal.
His courage and ambition are the talk of the campus. By his example he has inspired the entire Bison squad with a determination to equal his stamina on the gridiron and his desire for learning in the class-room.
24th Infantry Holds
Montgomery, Ala.—The 24th U. S. Infantry held the Alabama State College Hornets to a 0-0 tie game in the first contest of the Southeastern Conference, played at Paterson Field, Friday, September 27. Both teams showed they were just getting started and much is to be done before their respective offensive work smoothly. Fumbling was frequent and neither side got its aerial attack going.
The soldiers were a bit the better on the offensive and came within 5 yards of State's goal on 2 occasions. The thrill of the game came in the final period when a soldier intercepted a State pass and ran for 50 yards before being overtaken by Cooper.

New Photoplay House To Open In Harlem
Since the advent of sound, the motion picture as a mode of entertainment has grown in popularity by leaps and bounds. To go to the movies has become the swinkin thing. There has arisen, therefore, the great problem of where to find the best and most interesting of pictures and the most comfortable house in which to enjoy them. Harlem's problem will be solved with the opening next week of the Community Cinema at 612 Llenox Avenue, between 140th and 141st streets.
The Community Cinema under the direction of the Community Cinema Corporation will be dedicated to films as an art. The latest products of color photograph, the foreign pictures, educational films, at. American premiers will be offered in the most attractive surroundings. The house which seats only five hundred, has been beautifully decorated and equipped with the finest of sound and projection apparatus. It brings to its patrons the last word in films and atmosphere. To add that final intimate touch, coffee and cigarettes will be served gratis in the lounge. The Community Cinema, whose date will be announced in the next issue, will make its debut with the proper fanfare of distinguished speakers and guests and a program de luxe, presenting an animated cartoon, Fox Movietone News, an educational short and Shiraz, the sensational technicalized picture made in India. Fifth Avenue, 55th and 57th streets have come to Harlem.
Helene Meers Is One of Tallest Girls In The Show Business
Very seldom does a tall girl make a hit as a dancer. The exception in recent years has been Charlotte Greenwood, and now comes Helene Meers, of the team of Paul and Helene, in "Connie's 'Hot Chocolates,' now playing at the Hudson Theatre.
Despite her six feet two, Helene Meers displays a grace and beauty seldom seen in girls of more moderate height and should prove a boon to those men who are continually terrorized by the aspect of dancing with a girl much taller than themselves, for her partner Paul (who is her husband) is only five feet ten and you would never notice it.

At The Lincoln Theatre
"Sex View of Life" has been produced immediately after the government has prosecuted and convicted Mary, W. Dennett, the grandmother who had published pamphlets on sex and distributed them through the mails. This conviction caused considerable discussion throughout the country and has brought the subject of sex squately before every community throughout the land. "Sex View of Life" is a stage and information on the subject of sex. While it is frank and to the point, yet it is so well handled, that it does not offend anyone but brings its message home with tremendous force.
This attraction had created considerable comment during its tremendous run at the Times Square Theatre, Broadway and 42nd street, New York, during the entire summer. Unlike the average production of this type, "Sex View of Life" contains films showing actual scenery, charts, models, and two experts who give a plain talk on sex and all of which is something entirely different from what has heretofore been shown in this city, "Sex View of Life" is a lifetime education given in two hours. A stage attraction is followed up by the celebrated birth control film, "The Miracle of Life," featuring Percy Marmont, Mae Busch, and Nitra Naldi. This is a story of a husband who is a thoroughly domestic individual who craves home and family above all the pleasures of social life and gaiety.
His wife's enjoyments are exactly opposite, for she loves a giddy whirl of entertainment and confesses that the idea of children is the most disagreeable thing in life. She worships freedom and enjoys subject and scenes, men and wooit to the full. Due to the delicate men will not be admitted together. There will be special shows and attractions for women only Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, and special shows and reels for men only Friday, Saturday and Sunday. This attraction will be shown at the Lincoln Theatre, 135th street and Lenox avenue for one week beginning October 7.
At The Roosevelt Theatre
As the premier showing in Harlem, the management of the Roosevelt Theatre will bring to its audible screen this Saturday, Sunday and Monday, October 5, 6 and 7, the 100 per cent all talking mystery thriller, "The House of Secrets," "The House of Secrets" is a grapping drama of the workings of Scotland Yard when that famous institution is faced by a baffling mystery. It was a successful stage play and has now been transferred to the screen, enacted by a fine cast of experienced legitimate stage players.
On Tuesday and Wednesday, October 8 and 9, the Roosevelt will show "Light Fingers," 100 per cent all talking underworld drama, with Ian Keith, "Annotally Revered and Caroll Nyst."
At The New Douglas
There may be finer speaking voices than those heard in "The Last of Mr. Cheyney." Norma Shearer's all-talking starring picture which will be at the New Douglas, Theatre this Saturday to Tuesday, but we haven't any idea where they may be found. Miss Shearer who proved her supremacy as a star of the talking screen in "The Trial of Mary Dugan" repeats the splendid impression that she made at that time.
The story is built around the adventure of a beautiful London society "Raffles" and a member of nobility who loves her, even when she robs his own home.

Never has the talented Norma had a role like this. The sparkling stage hit has been made into a picture filled with many strange and unexpected happenings. The cast has been more carefully chosen and presents leading names of both stage and screen, and every part, regardless of how small, stands out with remarkable clarity and does much credit to each performer.
At The Alhambra
In "The Love Thief" at the Albambra Theatre this week is told a dramatic true story such as hap pens only too often in real life. And it is spiced up with amusing situations all the way through.
The young wife of a travelling man, left alone for weeks at a time, falls for the flattery of a would-be John Gilbert, and aite exciting episodes, finds her home wrecked.
"The Woman Tamer" is a comedy-drama coming to the Albambra, showing what happens to Winnie, a girl who loves to rule men.
"Moonbeams," a fantasy with music, fun, singing and dancing will engage the talents of the comedians and girls, with a number of new faces in the large cast.
The picture feature of the triple program will be "Singer Jim McKee" with dashing William S. Hart as the star.

THE P. P. B. A.
What is to become of the P. P. B. A?
Will the new plan of insurance have an effect?
If so, in what manner does the association so as to offset this effect?
These are some of the questions which members of the porter group since the introduction Company's latest plan of sick and death been.
If the first of the foregoing questions be member of the P. P. B. A. six months ago, be laughed to scorn. And as conditions to association, there would have been ample reason. With a membership of approximately 10,000 a quarter million dollars, such a query would garding the organization. Yet, in the short night, so to speak, this question not only assists, but it becomes a rather pertinent question.
Certainly no one connected with the officer or a member, can guess or foretell that this new insurance plan will have upon the benefit association. It may be assumed, he bound to have some effect. To what extent able to tell. But notwithstanding this, the are being propounded; and there are those at them even now.

Heretofore, many of the porter becoming a member of the organization.
In some districts, it has been said, this the point of compulsion. Whether this was not, the fact is that in many Pullman districts in these districts are members of the association most of these became members because they advantages of the organization, and for this there is another medium offering these same money, as the less optimistic of the group association's membership by compulsion, if not well be continued now.

This state vails with him, but he has a choice now regimens of protection he prefers joining, said that in some of the districts the superintendent to their porters that they could not join their P.

Will the new plan of insurance have any effect upon the association?
If so, in what manner does the association-contemplate functioning so as to offset this effect?
These are some of the questions which one hears among sturdy members of the porter group since the introduction of the Pullman Company's latest plan of sick and death benefit for its employees.
If the first of the foregoing questions had been asked any sturdy member of the P, P, B. A six months ago, the questioner would have been laughed to scorn. And as conditions then appeared with the association, there would have been ample reasons for such dersion. With a membership of approximately 10,000, and a treasury of nearly a quarter million dollars, such a query would have seemed foolish regarding the organization. Yet, in the short period of a month, overnight, so to speak, this question not only assumes a degree of sensibleness, but it becomes a rather pertinent question.
Certainly no one connected with the organization, either as an officer or a member, can guess or foretell at this time just what effect this new insurance plan will have upon the porters' sick and death benefit association. It may be assumed, however, that the plan is bound to shave some effect. To what extent, only the future will be able to tell. But notwithstanding this, the above mentioned queries are being propounded; and there are those who are trying to answer them even now.
Some of the less optimistic among the porter group see in the new Pullman insurance a slow but sure disintegrating agent of the progress, if not continuity, of the P. P. B. A. In their analysis of that eventuality, they offer a line of argument which is not entirely lord of basis, so far, at least, as the porter is concerned. One of the points of this argument is that the lever by which the porter was induced to join the association, whether he wanted to or not, has become unworkable. Heretofore, many of the districts insisted upon the porter becoming a member of the organization.
In some districts, it has been said, this insistence was carried to the point of compulsion. Whether this was an actual condition or not, the fact is that in many Pullman districts, almost all the porters in these districts are members of the association. And even though most of these became members because they appreciated the beneficial advantages of the organization, and for this reason alone, now that there is another medium offering these same advantages and for less money, as the less optimistic of the group declare, augmenting the association's membership by compulsion, if this were really done, cannot well be continued now.
Previous to the advent of the present plan, no porter could well offer any excuse against making provisions for himself and family in the event of sickness or death. This state of eventualities still prevails with him, but he has a choice now regarding which one of these mediums of protection he prefers joining. And it has already been said that in some of the districts the superintendents, when complained to by their porters that they could not join the new plan and retain their P. P. B. A. membership too, have advised the dropping of the P. P. B. A.
This, however, may be put down as rumor. At any rate, the porter cannot be urged to connect himself with both.
On the other hand, the more optimistic of the group are inclined to the idea that with a lowering of the yearly dues, a larger weekly sick benefit, and a flat payment of $1,000 to the beneficiary of the deceased, that the membership of the association need not be affected by the insurance plan, no matter how good, it features may be. Furthermore, some of these optimists go so far as to say that if the P. P. B. A. would make some sort of provision by which the retired-member would draw a pension from the association, that its-future would be just as bright and secured as it was before the group plan was introduced.
In speaking with one of the founder-members of the association, he said that some defection from the membership of the organization was to be expected, but that this defection would not affect the progress of the association to any appreciable extent. He also declared that, in his opinion, any discussion of what will become of the P. P. B. A is merely futility twaddle. The association is here to stay. His grounds for holding this opinion are based on these facts:
First, that there are some beneficial features of the association that are even better than some features of the group insurance plan. One of these is that a member becomes a beneficiary of the association immediately on his joining it. With the group plan he has to be enrolled six months before being eligible to benefits.
Second, that the association pays sick benefits, whether the member's disability is caused by accident which occurs while at work or away from it. The Plan doesn't pay for accidents which happen to employees in the regular course of employment. Such accidents come under the Employee's Compensation Law. It is only where the insured is hurt while away from his occupation that the Plan functions as a benefit.
Third, that the employee is only a beneficiary of the sick and accident features of the Plan up to the age of sixty. After that age, only the death benefit applies to his insurance, whereas, the P. P. B. A, pays sick benefits to the member as long as he is an active employee.
"The Group Plan is good, but I see no reason for the thinking porter not being identified with both mediums of protection," said this member.
In the meanwhile, the P. P. B. A. is holding its usual primary election for local officers and delegates to the grand association meeting, which will be held in Chicago in November.
Mott Haven Yard News
Tobias "Toby" Clark, a New York porter, may think well of Boston as a place to which to run, but not as a place in which to eat, especially, at certain hours of the evening, after his experience there a few days ago.
Several eveages ago, Clark who happened to be in the Bay State City, and felt the desire for food as a rather late hour, went to one of the Waldorf cham of restaurants in Dartmouth street, near the porter's quarters, to get a smack of He ordered "toast and coffee." When the order was served, he turned with it to a nearby table in the room, where he evidently thugs, intercepted his passage, and one of the quartet reached across the tray held, and grabbed a piece of the toast off the plate.
The act was so surprising that Clark, not knowing what it was all about made an effort to deposit the tray he carried. But before he could do this one of the four men tattered the assault by striking him on the face with a sugar bowl. The action was followed by a tattered onset by the four men, several minutes' melee, in which the colored man defended himself the best he could, the action ran from the lunch room, and two other diners came.

Porters who have run to Boston for many years can advance no reason for the actions of the white men other than that of sheer race antipathy. Some of these porters do not hesitate to say that in late years Boston has changed from the city of the "Cradle of Liberty" to an "old lousy cot" teeming with racial prejudice.

How to Reduce Varicose Veins
Rub Gently and Upward Toward the Heart as Blood in Veins Flows That Way
Many people have become dependent because they have been led to believe that there is no remedy that will reduce swollen veins and bunches.
If you will get a two-ounce original bottle of Moone's Emerald Oil (full strength) at any first-class drug store and apply it night and morning as directed you will quickly notice an improvement which will continue until the veins and bunches are reduced to normal.
Indeed, so powerful is Emerald Oil that old chronic sores and ulcers are often entirely healed and anyone who is disappointed with its use can have their money refunded.

Two Out of Three American Homes Now Wired for Electricity
Nearly twenty million homes, representing sixty-seven per cent of all the homes in the United States, are now wired and using electric utility service, according to a survey just completed by the National Electric Light Association. In 1928 more than one million domestic customers were added to the lines of the companies, and of the present grand total, it is estimated that approximately half have been equipped for electric service since 1928. In certain states, such as New York, New Jersey and California, practically all homes are wired, says the report. "The proportion of wired homes is, of course, highest in agricultural areas. Although central electrification is proceeding rapidly, the financial and physical problems involved are such as to have made it difficult to approach the record for urban electrification.
"Information now available shows that the yearly kilowatt-hour consumption of electricity by the average American family increased from 429 in 1927 to 459 in 1928, on by seven per cent."
