Rockefeller Jr. Proves Vital Factor In Community By LUCIEN H. WHITE In the commercial dew Harlem one of the most to be the Dunbar Nations of the great Negro poet, H established September 17, 1911, jr., and located in the Apartments building at co Eighth avenue. In the commercial development of the Negro in Harlem one of the most vital factors has proven to be the Dunbar National Bank, named in honor of the great Negro poet, Paul Laurence Dunbar, established September 17, 1928, by John D: Rockefeller, jr., and located in the Paul Laurence Dunbar Apartments building at corner of 150th street and Eighth avenue. Its purpose is that of being a bank primarily for the Negro citizens and business men of the community and it has been operated from the beginning with that purpose in view. It is not to be understood, however, that there are any racial or color lines drawn as to its patrons, for every race element in the community is cordially welcomed as a bank customer. Some years ago, it was brought to Mr. Rockefeller's attention that there existed an unfavorable housing condition among the residents of Harlem, and his first effort toward relieving the situation resulted in the erection of the beautiful and modern Dunbar Garden Apartments, occupying the entire block covering the area from 149th to 150th streets, and from Seventh to Eighth avenues. and the increased experience gained through study, it is the confident belief of Mr. Rockefeller and his aides that they will in due time qualify to become executives of the bank. Since its opening day, the bank has shown a steady and healthy increase both in number of depositors and in size of accounts Bank officials state that deposits are well above $800,000, and that the bank's total resources are approximately $2,000,000. And they boast with pride that of the several hundred thousand dollars loaned to customers of the bank, not one dollar has been lost. Most Modern Equipment. In equipping the bank's quarters, the post, modern, and up-to-date machinery was installed. An Economic Necessity the establishment of the bank followed as an economic necessity quarters for the institution having been specially prepared in erection of the apartment. Practically the entire capital stock was subscribed to Mr. Rockefeller himself, and most of this he still holds. Members of the board of directors, of course, were allotted a sufficient number of shares to qualify legally for their positions and customers of the bank have been allowed to purchase not more than ten shares of stock each, specially offered by Mr. Rockefeller at the same price he paid for it. The initial capital stock was $300,000, with a surplus of the same amount, and undivided profits for organization purposes of $40,000. It is interesting to note that at the end of the first year of the bank's operations, after closing of the books and making all charge-offs for depreciation of furniture and fixtures, vault and other equipment, including all of the initial expense of organization, that more than $18,000 of this $40,000 was unused, leaving a substantial cushion protecting the surplus, which is equal to the capital. This puts the bank in a strong position to carry out Mr. Rockefeller's purpose in its establishment. Staff Mostly Colored. The cashier, Mr. Loomis, in taking to a representative of the Age, and that Negro depositors composed from 90 to 95 per cent. of the bank's clientele and that their approximated 75 to 80 per cent of the total. In establishing the bank Mr. Rockettler expressed his desire to have the personnel made up as largely as possible of colored men and women. This purpose has been carried out to the extent that at the tendering force of the two, two only four are white, the president, vice president, cashier and secretary to the president. The Bank's Personnel. The bank's personnel at present is composed of the following persons: I. P. Quander, - accountant; Robert P. Irauddlees and John A. McBromid, new business representative; R. Russell Walter, Cyril A. Wilson and Walter Dixon, tellers; Ira L. Williams assistant teller; Johnna Williams, vault custodian; Samuel B. Wallace and Lekoy A. Smith, bookkeepers; Lennuel A. Spalding and John A. Powell, stateries clerks; Miss Helen Dusal M. Helen Trusty and Miss Ma. Larges, secretaries; William P. Smith, Sudley Books and B. Alvaranga, guards; Fred Hargaves, messenger. In order that this staff may be thoroughly and adequately equipped for their duties, the bank is providing special courses of instruction for its employees at the Ames Institute of Banking, Columbia University, the College of the University of New York, and other similar institutions, at its own expense, and the workers are attending one or the other of these colleges. With the added knowledge of banking practice VOL. 43.

In equipping the bank's quarters, the most modern- and up-to-date building machinery was installed. In the Thrift and Christmas Club Department, the National Cash Register, Savings Bank Machine is installed, and in the main departments of the bank the Dalton Bookkeeping Machines are used. An interesting device is the Recordak, a machine which photographs every check which passes over the bank's counter. This makes it possible for any depositor, upon request, to secure a photostatic copy of any check deposited on any check drawn by him which reaches the bank. The safety of the bank vaults is guaranteed by the thick walls of an enclosed steel door construction and massive door augmented by the installation of the most sensitive electrical instruments and time-clocks. As a measure of learning the effectiveness of the protection devices, the cashier, Mr. Loomis, and others of the bank's staff, made a test recently. Descending to the vault, after the vault's door has been closed for the night, several sharp blows were struck upon the outer wall of the vault, at some distance from the door. Reached Bank In Six Minutes. So keenly attuned are the electrical connections that the sound of the blows was transmitted to the patrol company's headquarters on West 125th street and within six minutes two armed patrolmen were at the door of the bank in answer to the alarm. In this vault are kept also the steel safety deposit boxes, which are available to the clients of the bank. Another convenience offered patrons of the bank is a night depository, every what as strong as the main vault, in which neighboring merchants can make deposits of funds from the outside of the building at any time between closing of the bank in the afternoon and its opening next morning.

The Week of October 12 ASTROLOGICALLY CONSIDERED BY THEARCHER The best birthday of the week seems to be October 12, and these people of this birthdate will be able to accomplish a great many things in this birthyear. There will be a need for patience and the best of judgment. This is not the true birthdate of every one born on October 12, and the only way to find out is to have a competent astrologist look it up. The true birthdate does not fall on the same date every year, although we observe the same date as a matter of convenience. There will be a some positive the health care for birthdates, not be my patience be used to much loss and bitter friends, will be no to nervous The coming week will be rather favorable in general for the people born in this week, for the planet Venus is forming some good mutual aspects with other planets, and has passed the adverse aspect to Jupiter that has brought so much ill health and financial difficulties to the people of this week in the last month. However, it is best that the people of this week do not attempt any new plans or changes unless they are. Many menships will be repealed and old matters and plans will bring gain and happiness. The birthdates of October 15 and 15 will not find much gain or profit in any changes or removals that they may make, no matter how promising their plans may look. Prepared by N. Y.

BURKE) (BY THOMAS B. BURKE) Baltimore, Md.-M. America's first late Sisters of Providence" is the title of an article in the magazine section of the Sunday Sun, by Grace H. Sherwood, which is fortunately timely, in view of the fact that Colored Roman Catholic bishops in the city co-own here next week, to study problems vital to the social and spiritual growth of the national race-group; and its historical import is perfectly attuned to the spirit of the city's proposed bi-centennial celebration. "Says the article in part. 'The Oblate Sisters of Providence are a colored community founded in Baltimore 100 years ago, with so few resources that the founders had no other reliance than the pro- perty of the church. But, and this fact arrests the attention, although founded in the South during slave times, they were founded for the express purpose of keeping school. The work of the community 100 years ago was what it is today, teaching the children of their own race. "A century ago, when the great majority of colorful people were slaves and illiterate, when there were few schools for them and opaque schools there were, and the colored man or woman capable of teaching school a rarity, there were found in Baltimore enough educated colored women to found a teaching order and establish a school. That this is so, that there existed in Baltimore thirty-two years before the Civil War a school where colored children could obtain the schooling denied to them by the city and the common training imposed on them, anywhere the world is a circumstance so unusual that its beginnings step out of the realm of mere church history and, become general history, a chapter of the progress of the race toward better things, the provision as made by the city under education of colored children until 1867. "When the Catholic Church wishes to secure stability for a project, her first resource is, of course, to some religious order. That there is no struggle for gain or for preferment, no family cares to divide interest, that goods are held in common, binds the members together. We work together to make the binding lasting. Get a community properly established and the work they undertake is almost certain to carry on." Then follows the history of the development of the idea, until the formation of the order, with Elizabeth Lange of Santiago de Cuba a superior of the Dominican, and a Madame Charles of this city; with Monsieur Father: Joubert, French born, as their first director, Archbishop Whitfield being head of the diocese. The novitate was spent in the University of St. Mary's Court. Their final vows were taken July 2, 1829. "All this time, however, while approved by the archbishop of Baltimore, they had not been formally approved by the Pope. In March, 1832, came the news from Rome that after investigation, their community had been formally approved of. they were official now, one of the recognized communities of the Church of the Speaker. No longer could it be said of them that their community was an isolated experiment in one city of far off America. They were connected, through the Observer, with the other sisterhoods of the Catholic Church." Continuing, the article recites the whole-hearted assistance the Sisters gave the city in the cholera epidemic of 1832, one of their greatest sacrifices, by making the great sacrifice; of their may have entertained in Liberia becoming a Eutopia for the race; of their ups and downs, until the fruition of their hopes and ambitions have been realized, as the Oblates have done to prove "The Oblates, having bought Chase street, and built the convent and school which house the community and its work today, a school which is an accredited high school, to which come the daughter of people from cities other than Baltimore countries other than the United States.

Art Exhibition at 135th Street Library BY ELIZABETH H. DAVIS There is an interesting exhibition at the 135th street branch of the Public Library, which is being sponsored by Dr. George E. Haynes. The exhibition consists of paintings by Palmer E. Hayden and Hale Wooldruff, who are both in the Greenwich Village in his neighborhood. Mr. Hayden, while resident of Greenwich village, took up painting in a small way but except for his employer, Victor Ferrara, and his friends, did not gain any wide spread recognition until 1926. In that year he exhibited five paintings which won him the Harmon Award for Distinguished Achievement in Fine Arts, and also won a gold award in 1927, that time an additional award of $3,500 was given, which enabled Mr. Hayden to go to Paris to study where he still is. The other exhibitor, Hale Woodruff of Indianapolis, began painting as a child and after graduating from high school, attended the Harmon Art School. Mr. Woodruff received the Harmon Award for painting after Mr. Woodruff went to India and from there to Spain and Italy in the year of September, 1927. Mr. Hayden is exhibiting one painting, "A Home in Bretagne." The work is fine in its coloring and technique and shows, a perfect understanding of Mr. Hayden in his work. Mr. Woodruff has five paintings in the exhibition "Old House Tops—Paris"; "Old Farm House in the Ruice Valley"; "The Road from Chataeanaus"; "Along the Levee at Charters"; and "Winter Calm at Charters." All of His work shows true art and the wonderful ability of Mr. Woodruff as an artist. "Winter Calm at Charters" is easily the best five paintings. The exhibition is fine one and well worth seeing.

HARLEM WAKES UP (From The Palmetto Leader) The political situation in Harlem, New York, is of interest to many people, and I know a few anywhere near the center of New York's great City of New York. Particularly is this true since the course of the colored citizens of Harlem presents a pretty good picture of just what Negroes think and will accept, and a favorable civic conditions and when they are majority. For quite awhile, it seems that they have been satisfied to let a white boss tell them "where to get off." The boss however seems to have gotten drunk and figured that Negroes, just didn't have any sense, would be better. Grenthal, the boss-bot off just a little too much when he attempted to deny Alderman Fred R. Moore, the able Editor of The New York Age, a second term, though he has proven an able and effective Alderman, and besides the boss's refusal to bow down and worship the great boss. The colored citizens woke up and decided in the recent primary that Alderman Moore was the man for them. They empathized that too, but besides the boss, two to 1 acre decided that it was time, for an able and upright colored man to take the place of the erstwhile boss Abraham Grenthal, Francis Rivers being the man nominated. For Congress, they, by a healthy majority, nominated an able and upright colored man, Hubert T. Delany. Let it be hoped that these voters will work even harder to the end that these nominees all will be elected in the general election. A Congressman of Delany's type to join Congressman Chisholm, the chief encouraging to the unrepresented millions of Negroes of this country. As Harlem has awaken, let it not slumber, but complete the job.

With the progress of the registration of voters during the week, it becomes evident that the coming election which is less than four weeks off, is going to be a lively contest. Besides the choice of a Congressman, members of Assembly, Aldermen and Judges, there is the main contest over the control of the city government, involving the offices of Mayor, Comptroller and President of the Board of Addermen, besides, the five Borough Presidents. All of these offices are now held by Democrats, except the presidency of the Borough of Queens, the result of the sewer scandals, which led to the outing of the Democratic incumbent. There are three prominent candidates for the office of Mayor, not counting a few others not so prominent, but whose names will appear on the ballot or machine. The leading place is held by Mayor Walker, whose suave and dapper personality is by this time well known to the voters in all parts of the town. He has come to like the job of Mayor so well, that he is willing to retain the burden for four years more. A candidate of a sterner type is Representative LaGuardia, who as anxious to leave his seat in Congress to help give the city a clean administration and wage war on the grafters and corruptionists. He took the Republican nomination by main force and has forced the fighting ever since. The third candidate is Norman Thomas on the Socialist ticket, who according to the judgment of the Citizens Union, is the ablest of the three men and the best equipped personally for the office. But the idea of a Socialist becoming Mayor of New York is inconceivable to most of its citizens, although Henry George came very near to achieving the impossible. National party policies play but little figure in a municipal campaign, so a Republican would make just as good a mayor as a Democrat other things being equal. But other things are not equal, at least not in this city. The local Democratic organization known as Tammany Hall is playing politics every day in the year, and its members know their jobs from A to ZZ. Mayor Walker has discreetly announced that he is the candidate of Tammany Hall and recognizes its leadership. Congressman LaGuardia denounces the rule of Tammany as the source of municipal graft and corruption. Mr. Thomas denounces Tammany and the Republican machine alike, as being equally corrupt and incapable of giving the city good government. It is a case of a very efficient machine, a very poor political machine, or an able candidate with no machine at all. And all political machines have their uses as well as their abuses. The issues that play a part in this municipal campaign are quite varied and at first sight some may appear trivial. The Rothstein murder case, involving the killing of a notorious gambler in an uptown hotel, has evoked most attention, in criticism of the police and legal authorities for not discovering and prosecuting the murderer. So bitter was this criticism that the District Attorney has been goaded into placing on trial a suspect, before he was ready to do so. Critics of the city administration claim that political considerations have prevented the unraveling of this crime. Another charge made against the present administration is that in the assessment of taxes certain interests have been favored by undervaluation of properties, thus placing a greater burden on the rest of the population. "Representative LaGuardia scored the concession of the Central Park Casino, "whopee joint and joy establishment," which enriches Tammany men at the expense of the taxpayers, who are barred from their own property by exorbitant cover charges and supercilious panders to the idle rich. On the other hand Mayor Walker is presented by the walking pictures at Times Square and other points as a "builder," somewhat after the style of Mayor Thompson of Chicago, the title of the production being "Building with Walker. Views of new high schools, subway construction and other lines of civic improvements were presented to justify the title. The five cent fare is favored, by all of the candidates, apparently regardless of the cost of transportation, any deficit being charged up to the city and hence falling on the taxpayers. There are many more municipal issues presented by the three leading candidates, and those who listen to them, or read their speeches, will receive a liberal training in civics. FIVE AMENDMENTS, A QUESTION AND A PROPOSITION. Another question for city voters to decide this fall, beside the choice of candidates for office, whether the city shall pay three thousand dollars yearly to policemen and firemen of the first grade. Considerable publicity has been given this question, with not a little agitation, all of which has been in its favor. Power to submit the question to the New York city voters was obtained from the State Legislature, at its last session and the referendum will be held at the general election. The present minimum pay for police and firemen is twenty-five hundred dollars a year. Besides this question of pay increase, there is a proposition for a Sanitary Commission to be submitted to the voters. If it is decided to establish such commission, it will consist of three members, to be appointed by the Mayor, for overlapping terms of six years each. One member must be a licensed physician, one an engineer and the other may be selected from any rank of life the probabilities favoring a politician. This commission would have charge of street cleaning, garbage disposal, sewage, snow removal and similar work now scattered under various borough jurisdictions. It would lessen the patronage now enjoyed by the borough presidents and hence the proposition has been opposed by them. With an efficient commission, it should lead to a concentration of these important city activities with corresponding efficiency and economy. There are also five amendments to the State Constitution to be voted upon by voters throughout the State. The first amendment would give preference in appointments and promotion in the State Civil Service to disabled soldiers, sailors, marines and nurses who lived in the State at the time of enlistment and who still live in the State. The second amendment would enable voters who are inmates of a United States Veteran Hospital to vote by mail. Under the third amendment, applying to Westchester and Nassau Counties, the Legislature would have limited power to change, the laws regarding creation or abolition of elective offices in those counties, removing of elective officers, reduction of salaries or change of elective office terms, or to abolish or curtail any elective office power, to change their voting or veto power, or laws, which affect the form or composition of a legislative body or provide a new charter for the counties, without the approval of the electors. The fourth amendment would empower the State to issue bonds for suppression of forest fires without submitting the debt question to the voters of the State. The fifth amendment would permit the Legislature to transfer criminal jurisdiction to inferior criminal courts of criminal jurisdiction. The general sentiment is in favor of increasing the pay of the police and firemen to the three thousand dollars minimum in view of the hazardous nature of their calling and the general increase in the cost of living. The amendment giving preference to disabled soldiers and sailors in the state civil service is opposed by various civil service groups, on the ground that it would not serve the best interests of the State. The second amendment enabling veterans to vote by mail is thought likely to pass, as is the fourth relating to the issue of bonds for the suppression of forest fires. Voters should study these questions before election day, so that they may be able to decide how to vote on each question. FILIPINO EMIGRATION. The landing of natives of the Filipino Islands on the Pacific coast by the hundreds has started the clamor for a new exclusion act on the part of some Californians. California has passed through the throes of several exclusion campaigns, beginning with the Chinese and following with the Japanese. Now it is the Filipinos who are coming in too great numbers to please the residents of the State and especially the city of San Francisco. As Filipinos are subjects of the United States, it was though by some that Congress had no power to bar them "Attorney General U. S. Webb of California has another opinion on the subject. In answer to an objection by former Judge O. R. Williams of Manila, who raised doubt as to the power of Congress to exclude its own subjects, the attorney general resented the suggestion and held that this government may do what it deems in the best interests of its people to do. In other words, he reverted to the old doctrine that the king may do no wrong, only substituting the people for the king. He based his reasons for exclusion as follows: "It is true that the Phillipine Islands occupy a peculiar position as the result of the Paris Treaty. But they were reed as property, and they were reed as quintessence or purchase, and their inhabitants thereby ceased to become subjects of Spain and become our subjects." "Theirs is the status of subjects. Their rights are those conferred upon them by our government, not rights guaranteed in our own Constitution. Not in law, the right of tribal government, not not granted uniformly by the Filipinos. Decisions are few and the courts give us little help. But Congress has imposed duties upon imports from Porto Rico, also a "subject land. Why may not Congress also exclude the persons from the Philippine?" "I am a believer in the exclusion law of 1924, affecting all aliens inteligible to become citizens. We may need some Filipinos here we do not need 100,000. Race preservation requires that we exclude the laborers of a certain group of people, who may not become citizens, who are alien to our civilization." The theory that Filipinos may not inermarry with whites was smashed by the fact that when the American regiments left the island, they left Filipinos wives and children behind them, either willingly or for lack of means to provide for their transportation. And then what about the much vaunted Americanization of the Filipinos, that constitutes the boast of the American officials sent to train the islanders in self-government? As to Porto Rican products paying duties, we had supposed that they only paid internal Revenue tax, the same as American products, cigars for example. Officials of the United States Public Health Service and of the California State Board of Health denied that the Filipinos in California are in any way a menace to health. It is estimated that of the one hundred thousand Filipinos in the United States, sixty thousand are located in Hawaii. It is claimed that they are not indispensable to agriculture, but constitute a cheap class of floating labor, if which ninety-six per cent. is male. For these reasons it is asked that their immigration be restricted.

In last week's issue of The Ace, we told of the campaign for better business methods, started under the direction of Albon L. Holsey and carried on under the auspices of the National Negro Business League and the Department of Commerce. According to a survey made by the New York Branch, of the League, there are seventy-three grocery stores in North Harlem, owned and managed by members of the race. It has been apparent for some time that these merchants were feeling the effects of stiff competition, in the same measure as all other small independent retailers. The majority of them were therefore quick to respond to the call to combine for their common protection and advantage. In last week's issue of The Age, we sold of the campaign for better business methods, started under the direction of Albon L. Holsey and carried on under the buspices of the National Negro Business League and The Department of Commerce. According to a survey made by the New York Branch of the League, there are seventy-three grocery stores in North Harlem, owned and managed by members of the race. It has been apparent for some time that these merchants were feeling the effects of stiff competition, in the same measure as all other small independent retailers. The majority of them were therefore quick to respond to the call to combine for their common protection and advantage. This combination took the form of what is known as the Colored Merchants Association, which offers to its members buying of goods in large quantities, with the reductions and discounts consequent upon such bulk purchases. The program adopted provides for the selection of one grocer to make purchases in bulk, which will eliminate the expense entailed by the wholesaler in going after retailers' orders. Instead of a salesman being required to visit some seventy odd merchants, all business will be transacted through a buyer who will represent the combination of retailers. That the retailers appreciate the advantages of cooperation to this extent and are willing to combine forces for certain specific purposes is a great point gained. It foreshadows a general expansion of retail merchandizing in Harlem to a point, where it will offer business opportunities to the young men and young women who are coming out of that schools and seeking jobs to give them a living. All these school graduates cannot become teachers or take to the practice of some profession such as law or medicine. Some of them must inevitably gravitate to business and the expansion of retail trade among us is necessary in order to provide for their employment.

A SUIT FOR LIBEL Ah Associated Negro Press dispatch from Nashville, Tenn., brought the news last week that the Rev. Walter A. Lewis, residing elder of the A. M. E. Church, All Associated Negro Press dispatch from Nashville, Tenn., brought the news last week that the Rev. Walter A. Lewis, presiding elder of the A. M. E. Church, COMMENTS BY THE AGE EDITORS ON THE SAYINGS OF OTHER EDITORS had filed suit for ten thousand dollars damages against Ira T. Bryant, editor of the Young Allenite and secretary of the Sunday School Union of that denomination. The basis of the suit was stated as libel. The presiding elder claimed that Mr. Bryant, in a June issue of the Young Allenite, characterized him as "one of those presiding elders who can't pray, preach, sing, or whistle," and accused him of forging the names of church trustees to checks. We have no knowledge as to what ground Mr. Bryant had for this charge that he brought against the presiding elder, but the accusation is no greater than some that he has preferred against the bishops of the church with specifications and details giving dates and amounts. Mr. Bryant, in publishing such charges in the Young Alenite, used always to suggest to the official under fire that a suit for libel was one of the courses open to the accused party. This presiding elder evidently took him at his word for some reason, maybe considering the charges libelous, some- Commenting on the serious condition that has grown out of the text workers' strike in North Carolina, the Carolina Times of Durham said: The communists have accused the officials of the law of using the big stick, and offering no protection for freedom of speech, which under the whole government is rightfully theirs. The courts accuse the communists or labor leaders with interfering with public peace and pursuing drastic means in pleading for better labor conditions for the company, and the whole government acquiescing after another, with mob violence and disregard for the law and personal rights exhibited on both sides. In fact, democracy seems to be on the verge of prohibiting from parading and making public speeches is a thing considered by many as undemocratic, while the making of such speeches and the placing of a ban on parades and various other demonstrations is a law it is inscribed by many as a dangerous procedure. Perhaps there is much sound argument on both sides, but one thing is certain, the State should not permit conditions to exist in Gastonia and Charlotte such as have been witnessed in the past weeks. Demonstrations are all right, and upholding the law is all right, but when persons concerned in either disregard the safety of the lives and property of others then a more powerful force should be brought to bear. The whole situation illustrates the disregard for law and order, that is due to the long continued toleration of mob law and lynching. Hailing as a wholesome sign the fact that the National Baptist convention at Kansas City declared itself to have felt an impulse for union, the Birmingham Reporter said. This unusual impulse found expression in the president's official address. It may be a good omen that the next-meeting of the convention is to be held in Chicago, where the split occurred some time ago. To express this loss and a willingness to work for it as going a good way toward starting sentiment and we shall listen for any reply to this expression that may come from other Baptist organizations of this kind. It ought to be easy for Baptists to respond as easily as it is for them to split their hands and pity are such that no entanglement of any kind are involved. The necessity to consult anything but the judgment of those who make up the convention is foreign to the requirements necessary to complete the union. There are no bishop problems, no general officer problems, no constitutional restriction, through which to maneuver. There is just the plain fact that they are split and the shame of it, and the fact that no difficulties are involved, in the uniting and the vastly greater the they cannot yield to the trend of what it means to lead in the direction of better ideals and higher efficiency The organization may have a program mapped out for the future but there is no item on it quite so worthy of consuming effort as the uniting of Baptists for the common aim of forwarding the educational and social interests of the race. So far as we have been able to observe there does not appear to be any substantial reason why the Negro Baptists should remain divided into two separate factions. Reunion and solidarity would be a good slogan for the future. Discussing the refusal of the Union veterans at the G. B. R. encompartment in Portland, to adopt the resolution for a reunion of the Blue It will be interesting to see whether the case is even pressed to the point of trial and if so, if Mr. Bryant is able to prove his charges of forgery. Any inability of the presiding elder to pray, preach sing or whistle may not be libelous in itself, but it tends to create doubt, of his fitness for the office. and the Gray, the St. Louis Arms said: Significant, however, were the words of one of the appointees to the joint encampment who shouted passionately: "Let them fold up their battle flags, the flags we fought against and carried. When Old Glory against to victory. When Old Glory against to flags in museums, then we will believe they want a reunion." Of course, we are not particularly interested in the encampment of either the G.A. R. or the Gonflede. We are not particularly truth in the above statement concerning the spirit which still exists in the South. It's a case of "whipped out but not conquered." There are in some instances just as much truth in today as there was seventy years ago. The United States flag with the people of the South is "Old Glory" as long as Uncle Sam will allow that, "to hell witt," the constitution is the language of her statesmen. The United States constitution declares that the Negroes are free and citizens of the United States, but not of the South. The South is not be damned if they are." Uncle Sam says that we are a united people, and the South says we are not Uncle Sam says that the cause of the union soldiers was right, but the Union soldiers were wrong then and is still wrong and will forever be wrong. Knowing as we do the spirit of the South, we imagine that it would be the most interesting meeting since still the Union soldiers meet that the Blue and the Gray meet as one in an annual encampment. To hear the old men whose opinions are fixed fight again the battles of war in words and spirit would be well worth the attention of this nation. The St Louis editor may have a chance to hear that kind of discussion yet, as next year's encampment will be held in Cincinnati. Referring to a proposed bond issue for the city of Louisville, the Louisville News, pointed out some inconsistencies in the attitudes of its proponents It said We have a peculiar set of white people in this city. Every December, through an Inter-racial Commission, they meet up in the Court House with their colored fellow citizens and make high sound speeches on equal justice, including speeches on behalf of the Ban League, Y. M. C. X, Y. W. C. A's and numerous institutions, and talk and direct and advise. But when it comes down to putting into practice the things they say they are just gone. Here we give $1,000,000 bond issue for the benefit of the schools of Louisville and not a single provision is made in it for the Negro! To read what their aims are regarding the spending of that money, one would think this was Vita, an infirm woman. And set they will have the interrogated gall to ask Negroes to vote for it. Well, here's hoping the Negro will have the plain common sense to vote against it. Will our white friends ever learn? The Negroes have added greatly in killing the Negroes and provisions for Negro schools. They can and will do the same to this one. That is the only position to take, in order to secure justice in the matter of adequate educational facilities. It should argue an enlightened self-interest that will recognize the necessity for providing for the education of both races. Declaring that the regular Democratic nominee for Congress in the Atlanta district is "too little" for the job, the Atlanta "Independent" exposed his weakness as follows: Mr. Ramapo-Kaid in his address of acceptance that he was grateful to the white people for the human conferred upon him; and be warned the white people that white control the black people, the highest demagogy, and if only reported to by the ignorant and misguided, who seek office, for self-aggrandisement. Of the, the 400,000 Negroes who have no hope or desire to wreat the government from the great white majority; and, If Rampeau knows enough to find his knowledge, if elected he knows this fact. We have approximately 65,000 voters in the district, and less than one-twelfth of them participated in the democratic race. Mr. Ramspock was monitored with about 3,000 out of 65,000 voters in the district. He ought to know that he is the nominee of the Democratic Party of the United States, people of the district. Our law does not provide for a white primary and all this not about a white primary is the pent-up fulmination of race prejudice, religious bigotry, and political intolerance. Mr. Ramspock ought to be shown that he cannot serve the 265,000 white people in the district without in a way serving the 135,000 black people. Unfortunately too many of the representatives from the South in Congress are of the same calibre as this Georgia nominee. They think it necessary to appeal to the ignorance and bigotry of that section, rather than to be the broadminded and intelligent voters. The Texas Preemm, published at Houston, celebrated the season's closing of a recreational center for 1929 with the following tribute to its success: Gulfside recreational center and assembly grounds at Waveland, Miss. put itself on record in great success in 1929 season.

THOMAS Atlanta, Ga.—The recent legislature of the State of Georgia passed a Motor Carriers' Act which brought all motor vehicles transporting passengers or property or both for hire or compensation over the public highways of the State of Georgia under the jurisdiction of the Georgia Public Service Commission. The legislature did not formulate rules and regulations covering the operation of these motor carriers, but gave the state the discretionary powers to outline and designate the rules and regulations under which these passengers and property transporting vehicles might be hired. Except twenty-three rules and regulations A public hearing was given by the Commission on the contemplated rules in the Senate Chamber at the Capitol, Friday, September 20. In a notice, given by the Commission, we asked the Commission, he said, "We are activating constructive criticisms of these rules and in order to serve the convenience of those interested, we are hearing such criticisms on September 20. While no final action will be taken on these rules, we are hearing that the wish of the Commission that those who may desire to be heard concerning the reasonableness and desirability of these rules will avail themselves of such opportunity on September 20 and only in the event that the opportunity onably necessary will further opportunity be given for hearing." All other rules except Rule 31 deal primarily with policy, time schedule, tickets, equipment, baggage, rates, freight, tariff, etc. Rules 31 require carriers to sons and suggests how the carriers might determine who to haul. It reads—"Rule 31. Motor carriers may confine themselves to carry, either white or colored passengers or they may provide different colors and colored passengers, and they may carry white and colored passengers in the same vehicle." This makes it optional with each carrier as to whether he shall haul white or colored. Any person wishing to carry a passenger would be within the law so far as Rule 31 is concerned. On the face of it and according to the language of this rule it seems at first not to discriminate It says white or colored. If the ability to own and operate businesses is not the same for the two groups were equal so that the amount of business done would be equally distributed between the two groups in the matter of daily transportation; one group would be at no serious disadvantage and a person investing in the business would be doing of doing as much business, all things being equal; as his neighbor on the other side of the street. This, however, would make it necessary to have two businesses running along the same street and along the same time, making the same stop and with the same destination. In sending out the notice for this hearing, no colored people were apparently notified because there were only two colored people and they were because of being intersex. Dr. Duncan was not thinking of the reasonableness of these laws as they affected colored people, otherwise they would have been invited to cohere in and register their "constructive" serious opinion to careers when we think that undoubtedly ninety-fifth the country, marked a new chapter in the history of the enterprise. By compiling a record of delegates, from states and a leadership person assembled from New Orleans, Arkansas, Cincinnati, Chicago, Philadelphia and Gulfside, there was a continuous church and social movement throughout the state, more than two weeks. The season came to an official ending with the meeting of the Board of Director of Gulfside Association, September 5; although actual cessation of activities occurred throughout the conference, October 10, when the Conference of Workers held its final session. This body, consisted of representatives from practically three-fourths of all the colored conferences in the church and selected delegates from other churches. The Clare Vork Conference was fostered by the Board of Home Missions and Church Extension, and was under the direct supervision of Dr. W. A. C. Hughen assisted by R. G. Morrison, and Dr. J. A. C. Hughen on this program were Dr. Prad Newell of New York, Dr. E. M. Conover of Philadelphia, Mr. Fosterer B. Washington, Atlanta, Dr. S. Stowell of Chicago, Miss Mary C. Hollinghead of Chicago, Dr. H. Hollinghead of Chicago. According to opulipans of those who are in position to know the season just closed was the most successful in the history of the enterprise. More than ten hundred contacts with delegates from this region. Over two score activities have been carried on touching practically every wholesome phase of Negro life. The plant has been wonderfully enlarged and improved, and work continues. The plant has been dotted and framed of which are already up. A new dormitory will be started next week. Among the 1930 features now being planned are Roland Hayes and Matthew Hegson of North Pole fame. This would indicate that the Gulfside center and assembly is something in the nature of a Southern Chaguanua. per cent of the passengers will be white, and that no severe loss will be sustained in refusing to carry colored passengers, and knowing that no one would afforded to take the advantage of the helpless, this opinion in practice will become a very serious measure of discrimination against Negroes. The months ago an ordinance passed the legislature of Jacksonville which read substantially as follows: "Be it ordained by the City Council that no Negro shall be permitted to house in a community, the majority of whose residents are white." Then in order to make it seem perfectly fair, they added that to build or repair a house in a community were Negroes. When we think of where the warehouses, office buildings, theatres, sky scrapers are erected, it is just as local in say that no educated man in order to be perfectly fair add, therefore no ignorant man shall be permitted to teach an educated man. Cambridge, Mass., Speaks Editor of The New York Age. Nothing has given me greater pleasure than to read of the nomination of Alderman Fred R. Moore to succeed himself, and tied to the skirts of that valiant Knight of the Open Door, policy we find Mr. Riis brought roughly running mate, Col. Fillmore. Never before in the history Manhattan island has such a political upheaval been brought about by any man or set of men as has been wrought by those successful contenders. This success is ours also. This political coup has been broadcast to the four corners of the globe, and wherever colored men and women reside, whether on the Eastern or Western Hemisphere, their positions in science and government must be to a degree that must be recognized by all civilized powers. 6 2 Abraham Grenthal and his heir- men must now feel the untenable ground upon which they stand as proper representatives of the people. They have evidently been weighted in the balance and found wanting, in giving a satisfactory account of their stewardship while in office. The colored people of Cambridge among them much rejoiced over the history of those named for their respective offices as those in your own community. LOUIS WHITE Cambridge, Mass.

Semper for such a noble idea and the assured for the indulgence in control of this work, he is certain of an early success. The Archbishop informed his hearers that he ordained Bishop Jack as a priest in 1921 and that his confidence is firm in the business of his house, a noble house, cause of building a home for interstate children and the indigent by placing a dollar bill in the collection plate, the Archdeacon followed with same amount and many other dollars, and the dollar bills were in the plate the Archbishop and his consort left to take up duties in their church.

Church The work of St. Paul goes gloriously on. We have not yet reached the place where the sign "Standing room only," must be placed in the vestibule, but we are certainly impatient to general public know that our attendance increases from week to week. We attribute this partly to the special atmosphere in the church and partly to the hearty cooperation of the members and friends in congratulating to have people come inside. The prayer meetings at Friday night and Sunday morning were at high spiritual tide. The pastor preached at the morning service, and a number of persons joined the church. The Sunday school was full of interest in great works. A holding its treasures. The B. P. U., while not as long attended as could have been washed up made up for that lack in earnest words of the president. Ed. Wells, in his effort to make the B. P. U., the greatest in the At the evening service there were a number of visiting clergy, and those persons who are local preachers of the church. The pastor gave a lecture some part in the service, then introduced Rev. W. Barker who preached. The most must-have had his mind for in talked along the very lines that should have been brought before the minds of the members of the church. We are looking forward with anticipations to the occasion by the church members on October 15. Those people who constantly give of the service to the church are now going to show just what they can do.

Olivet Baptist Church The morning service at the Mr. Olivet Baptist Church was well attended Sunday, October 6. There was a solo by John Hailey. The passionate reverence of the reachful Revelations 4:2-3, about the rainbow encircling the throne. Some of the outstanding points of his well-rendered, discourse were that the throne, John saw, was set in the heaven indicating that he was everterrestrial and twelve leaders of Israel constituted the twenty-four elders who cast their crowns down before the King of Kings who sat on this throne; that the rainbow colors probably indicated mercy; that the virginity, pristineness and peace and that God accommodates himself to the level to man, so that man can understand his will. The B. Y, P. U, had an interesting program. The vested choir of young people rendered excellent music. At the evening service, the pastor preached from Matthew 17:19-20: "Then came the disciples to Jesus apart, and said, Why could not we cast him out, and Jesus cast him out, and our unbelief! for verily I say unto you, If you have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain. Remove him to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you. The theme of his speech is the allure of the divine help depends upon the presence of man's faith. Announcement was made that a play will be given on Thursday evening. October 10, entitled 'The Great Dazling Throne,' under the auspices of the Crystal Spa Drama. Four people joined the church during the day. Salem M. E. Church Dr. F. A. Cullen, pastor, preached to a full congregation Sunday morning and served holy communion at the evening service.

Emanuel A. M. E. Church Sunday, October 6, which marked the second Sunday of the celebration of our third anniversary was indeed a glorious day at Entaunel. The pastor, Rey, D. Ward Nichols, preacheth for his subject "Jesus of Nazareth." This was without a doubt one of the best sermons Dr. Nichols has ever preached. The vast congregation listened with silent attention as he told with practical illustrations of the life of Christ. At three o'clock the church school men in its history All departments were wide awake and studied the lesson with great interest. The Missionary Society held its regular monthly meeting at 4.30 p.m. and a spiritual feast was enjoyed by all present. A splendid program was rendered at the Christian Endeavor with Miss Alice Breach in charge. The service the pastor preached, using for his subject "New Religions in an Old World."

Johnson, vicar of St Martin's Chapel, 122nd street and Lenok avenue. "This virtue," said Mr. Johnson beginning his sermon, "is an admonition one, whether extended or receiveable by the Lord, in our lives when all of us have either had to forgive or to be forgiven. One of the chief obstacles to human progress is unforgiveness. Our Great Master was always ready to forgive. St Luke, the Apostle, relates the story of the apostle of Rome, after a life of degradation and shame because of this quality of mercy possessed by Christ. She attempted to show her greatfulness by breaking the alabaster box of ointment over His feet. Jesus stopped unkind criticism, as was his Cuspidate, and he Pharisee, that He was really a great Prophet and Teacher. "It has been the aim," continued the minister, "of this pulpit to preach a utility religion; a religion to help us to aid human progress that teaches that God is ever present, walking by our sides, ready by serving our fellowman and being a religion should cause us to start anew and to help others, not only to believe in God but to have faith in man. The great Disraeli, the Jew, fame in spite of opposition once said in a great moment, I havelt any room in my heart for vengeance. We would do well to remember this quotation and to forge a religion are obstacles in the path of human progress. We should strive to practice living with a forgiveness spirit. Communion was administered by Rev. John H. Johnson at the 11 o'clock service. During the announcement period, Mrs. D. District attorney, Susan B.

Novel ty | AUTUMN REVELS ~ By LUCIEN H. WHITE WANAMAKER AUDITORIUM CROWDED TO CAPACITY THREE AFTERNOONS LAST WEEK TO HEAR GREAT FRENCH ORGANIST New Yorkers who are lovers of fine organ music had a rare treat offered for their delectation when Marcel Dupre, professor of organ, Paris Conservatory, and rated as one of the greatest organists in the world, played three programs on the great organ in the Wanmaker Auditorium, one each on Monday, Thursday and Saturday, September 30, October 3 and 5. The first two were regularly scheduled, and were played to audiences that filled every seat, and most of the available standing room. So great was the desire to hear Dupre, that Dr. Alexander Russell, concert director at Wanmakers, was constrained to arrange the third recital, which was as largely attended as the others. Notwithstanding the calibre of performance offered by the great French master, there was no charge for admission, tickets being had for the asking on application at the auditorium office at any time up to the hour of the program. Notwithstanding this fact, a careful review of the audience showed probably not more than a half-dozen colored people in the audience. This despite the fact that scores of church organists would learn much to their advantage, and hundreds of reputed music lovers would be highly regaled, by listening to such performances as were given by Dupre. The programs were masterly conceived and in his playing Dupre displayed a warmth and color which seemed deeper and more alluring than when heard here before. And with the passing years he is more and more perfecting his technical equipment. A striking feature of each program was his demonstration of the seldom heard art of improvisation. Themes just a measure or so in length were submitted to him by Dr. Russell, having been provided by various musicians at present in the city, and these brief sketches were smoothly and dexterously elaborated into Preludes, Fugues, Scherzes and other forms, with a climactic demonstration on Saturday by the improvising of a Symphony in four movements—Allegro, Adagio, Scherzo and Toccata. He is in this country to make an extended concert tour, covering all sections of the United States. MUSICAL ART FORUM OPENS IN ORANGE N. J., FOR NINTH YEAR'S ACTIVITY MUSICAL ART FORUM OPENS IN ORANGE N. J., FOR NINTH YEAR'S ACTIVITY The Musical Art Forum of Orange, N.J., opened its regular season on Sunday afternoon meetings on October 6, at the Wilson Lamb Studio, Main street, with the Rev. Father L. H. Berry, rector of St. Philips Protestant Episcopal Church, Newark, as the principal speaker. Father Berry's address was on "The Meaning of Art," and it was a cogent, well-thought out thesis. Another feature of the afternoon was the formal unveiling of the prize-winning oil painting, "Swing Low, Sweet Charlot," by Malcolm Grey Johnson, which was given the Harmon Award first prize at the exhibition of Negro art held under auspices the Harmon Foundation last January at International House, 500 Riverside Drive, New York City. The painter, Mr. Johnson, was present and was introduced to the audience by Father Berry. An interesting event was the reading of a poem, inspired by the picture and written by David J. Lewis, second tenor in the Wilson Lamb Quartet, a group of white singers who have been studying with Mr Lamb for some months. In a foreword, the writer of the poem says, "The veiled light of mysticism in which the painter has so artfully and appropriately concealed the sacred thought of his painting, is responsible for a fascinated imagination and a awakened spiritual emotion winging their light through the medium of this poem." The Wilson Lamb Choir of about thirty voices sang two numbers, the spirituals, "Swing low, sweet chariot," which inspired painting of the picture, and "Wade in de water," Mrs. Alice Russell Mischaeus presided with chairm and distinction. A dainty luncheon was served all guests by the ladies. The ninth annual formal public opening of the Forum will occur Wednesday evening, October 16, at the Y. W. C. A. auditorium, 69 Oakwood avenue, Orange, at which time members of the organization will present a carnival of music, with each member garbed in costume appropriate to the musical number rendered.

Myrleigh avenue, a fair-sized audience that was boisterous on enthusiastic in the reception of the solos and orchestra numbers The concert was presented by Bely Dickson of *Passassic*, who induced the audience to sing Biggs of New York, a well-wisher at the school, to bring the John- son School to Passaic to entertain the citizens. At conclusion of the program, the pastor said it was surprising to see and hear what the children could do and said what an improvement it was from his day, when the circular saw and fork, a stick and a tin pan, were used to cut the wood of southern home town. The pastor was profuse in his praise of Raymond Waters, and predicted a bright musical future for the 10-year old violin gold medal winner—the only colored gold medal winner in the New York Music Week instrumental player. The pastor Mr. Johnson if he would promise to come back the church would not be large enough to hold the audience that he would gather. the soloists were Raymond Waters, the bassist Marcel Harewood, pianistothy Silver medal winner and Dorothy Marks, silver pianist; Mr. Brigida read a group of poems which were well received.

There is a consciousness of a personal salvation and arouses in us an urge to have a missionary spirit that is, in fact, a Christian spirit. We ask the pastor, Dr. Edward Ernest Tyler during the course of his morning discourse which was delivered before more than 1000 persons. His topic was "The Crusading Companions of Jesus." The text was St. Luke 22: 28; John 14: 28. He thought that the Christian contends against many influences and undergoes many temptations, and we must remember that the Christian enterprise undertakes to remake human nature and to revolutionize men and women so that they will be certain inhibited, that is, it holds us back, and instead of following our first impulses we restrain ourselves and do the better thing. Three persons joined the church when the invitation was extended. The afternoon he pastor, officers, high school members paid a fraternal visit to the John Wesley M. F. Church on Pacific street, near Smith, of which the Rev. William A. Hubbard is the pastor. Evening hour the pastor filled the pulpit again. He gave a very interesting talk on the theme "Things Seen and Heard Here and There in the A.M. E. Connection." In keeping with his custom when he church on Sunday night Dr. Tyler had the talk preceded by a short sermon. This was delivered by the Rev. William N. Holt. His talk was based on The Kingdom Builder. Dr. Tyler first discussed his attendance at the Educational rally of the First Episcopal district held in Philadelphia recently. He told of the part Bridge Street Church district of the district and Bishop J. H. formered the church. The district raised $12,000 for education. From there Dr. Tyler went to the Second Episcopal District. He met the Rev. James McMahon, where he delivered the dedication sermon of the new edifice of the A. M. E. Church there. This was his first charge. He attended the mid-year conference of the district in the church. Mid he sold of the school building which Bishop Gaines is handling his district and the chance that laymen had for frank discussion of conditions in the church. He next attended the Pittsburgh Conference in the church. He overwished which Bishop Heard presides. Here Bishop Heard held Bridge Street Church as she best church in the connection in point of organization and doing its full duty. Dr. Tyler was endorsed for the bishopric by this conference. He stated that this did not make him feel exalted but have a deep sense DOCK C SNELLINGS The Biggled. Photograph At GRAGE CHURCH 910 West 188th Bloor, Sunday, October 27 8100 P.

He has no desire to serve in the homefield, for his ideals on the beach of bishops the late Bishops Johnson and Coplin served in Africa and if the church elevates him he wants to follow in their footsteps. DF. Churchatheme Lord followed Dr. Tyler and spoke briefly of his Southouth a collection. The church gave his collection. The Order of Oddfellows, and the Household of Rush, will be the guests of the church on Sunday evening. On Friday night the second quarterly, conference will be held. October 9, 10, the district conferences will be held at Freetown pit were in memory of George James and were given by his mother, Deaconess Sarah Gant, Siloam Presbyterian Church Sunday was Sliouam's Rallying Day in all departments of the church, in its boards and organizations, Dr. George Shippen Stark, pastor, took his text for the morning. He read it aloud, the Pastor brought out most vividly how much of the old truth heard from childhood, "God is love," slips away from us and leaves us in peril and needing help. He read it aloud, the Pastor would only find the shreds of it. He portrayed that one of the weaknesses of human nature is to want to change, novelties in religion. What is needed is the strength that makes us strong in time of weakness, daring while in despair, the need today is the intellectual honesty to say to ourselves that we are wrong in all things of life and to make beginning with today the first step of our lives and service to God. Mrs. Edith M. Cody, rendered most beautifully as a solo "Let not your heart be troubled." Randolph Softly, of 220 Duffield street, was received into the membership of the church at this hour. The congregation immediately after the morning worship. It was Promotion Day in the school and many were made happy as they were advanced to new classes and departments. Each Sunday new pupils were added to the school and those coming in to help train and develop these young hearts and minds. Wednesday night the Men's organization meet to plan for the opening night of the Men's Room. Tuesday night, October 29, a Holiday City is to be given the Parish House by the Church Beautiful Club. Sunday evening marked the opening of the evening hour of worship for the season. The sermarment of The Lord's Supper was held every evening hour of worship is to be a service rich in blessing and helpfulness and many are expected to avail themselves of the opportunity of attending, bringing with them their many friends, and organizing of the church are taking up their work with renewed vigor. Meetings are being held and plans made for forthcoming activities. Soilam this year will be able to give to its membership and to those things with which to their spiritual uplift and culture. Berean Baptist Church Space will not allow to tell you what our pastor delivered Sunday. His text was taken from Revelation, as he is still on the Seven Churches of Asia Minor. Thus far he is only up to the third object of Jesus's Message to the third Church of Asia Minor. His message was quick and powerful and to the point. It pays to have a man who gets a vision of God during the time he is preparing his message to the folks, as it certainly can be to help by the effect of his message on his people. We were proud to have five persons to unite with us. B. Y. P. U. is still alive and keeps its large attendance. In the afternoon Ward 8 held a concert in honor of the "Buch Loving Cup," which was presented to them in our last rally Misses Mosee and Mosee Simpkins and Simpkins, the leader of the Ward, and A. A. Gatewood and Miss Milded Jenkins entertained us quite well, the last two at the piano. Our parsonage is about complete, which will be a monument for ages. Berean, the Church with a Welcome Nazarene Cong. Church In his morning sermon the Rev. Dr Henry Hugh Proctor gave the homecoming sermon from the gracious invitation of Christ in Matthew 11.28. I hear in these words, the sad: "I am the gates of Pearl swing aisle. I see the gates of Pearl swing aisle. I feed the pulse bask of God. I enter the rest for the people on God. Every man has the burden of ignorance selfishness and mortality. To these Jesus offers his voke faith olive and immortality. The church chooses the call of Jesus to teach, pray, rest and fellowship. Join every brick in your church!" At the evening hour a great audience gathered to enjoy the weekly service of song and to hear the Rev. Samuel Parkes Cadman on his sojourn in India. After telling of his acquaintance, a number of questions proounded by the audience Judge Cailhan introduced Dr Cadman. The choir was assisted by the Southern Quarrel and the Ladies Lincoln Tromm Trom Miss Jespia. Taylor and her friends are amid, the delight of her friends after the month's vacation in the Cailkilla.

HOGANS EXERCISING PRUDENCE The leaders of the Brotherhood commendable prudence, in one rehearsal the organization, which was reelected and repressed members of the Pullman service, from making them according to news reports from the of the meetings proceedings, this is "Many porters, active in service names are withheld to avoid reprisal. This action on the part of the defence, but it was an act of plain or many porters have lost their jobs through lack of using a little comization. And while this may not beers, nevertheless, it is to be regretful in the activities of the mob upon the porters in the beginning, since that a discharged porter was. When the movement first star which porters belonged to it. Mostly blatant about their connection not quite as enthusiastic as themselves do, the result was, the garrulous or vice. Of course, these were termed "par of it was that it was self-inflicted much talk and activity on their par have warned them that one cannot keeper of the house to condone the stoning might be. In one district, the superintendent particularly interested in knowing men, but he was interested in knot misdemeanor talking, were interfere. The unfortunate part about the thussasst did neither the Brother their loquaciousness. Apparently, realized this, and have impressed a role of talker and agent should be. It is too bad that some of the late that this is what the leaders though some of these are not always do for their constituencies. The leaders of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters exercised commendable prudence, in one respect, at the national convention of the organization, which was recently held in Chicago. They discouraged and repressed members of the organization, who are active in Pullman service, from making themselves conspicuous at this meeting, according to news reports from the conventions. In The Age's account of the meetings' proceedings, this item along that line was observed: "Many porters, active in service, attended as delegates, but their names are withheld to avoid reprisals on the part of the company." This action on the part of the leaders was not only an act of prudence, but it was an act of plain economy, when it is considered how many porters have lost their jobs since the movement began, merely through lack of using a little common-sense in relation to the organization. And while this may not be charged to the Brotherhood leaders, nevertheless, it is to be regretted that the wisdom of being inconspicuous in the activities of the movement wasn't impressed more fully upon the porters in the beginning. It should have been obvious long since that a discharged porter was useless to the organization. When the movement first started it was an easy matter to tell just which porters belonged to it. Most of these were not only vociferously blatant about their connections, but they derided those who were not quite as enthusiastic as themselves in making their affiliation known. So, the result was, the garrulous ones found themselves out of the service. Of course, these were termed "martyrs to the cause," but the ironic par of it was that it was self-inflicted martyrdom. It was simply too much talk and activity on their part, just a little common sense should have warned them that one cannot stone a house and then expect the keeper of the house to condone the act, no matter how justifiable the stoning might be. In one district, the superintendent told his porters that he wasn't particularly interested in knowing which of them were Brotherhood men, but he was interested in knowing which of them, who, by their indiscriminate talking, were interfering with the morale of the service. The unfortunate part about the whole matter was that these enthusiasts "did neither the Brotherhood nor themselves any good by their loquaciousness. Apparently, the leaders of the movement have realized this, and have impressed upon the members the fact that the role of talker and agent should be left to them. It is too bad that some of them weren't advised before it was too late that this is what the leaders of an organization are for; even though some of these are not always discreet in the amount of talking they do for their constituencies.

GENERAL NEWS ```markdown ``` LIBERIA MAKES A KNIGHT OF WIDOW OF A MISSIONARY White Canadian Married Tribe Chief; Saved Liberian Army From Paris, France, there cones a tale of a knighthood being conferred upon "Ma" Brown, the 55-year old widow of a white Canadian missionary, who for thirty years has been married to the chief of the Liberian tribe, by the Liberian government as a result of her saving the Liberian army from a forest ambush. One of the smaller tribes in the interior refused to send men for contract work in a Portuguese colony when instructed, to do so by the government. As the army was moving through the forest to enforce the mandate warriors of the tribe deployed in ambush, "Ma" Brown, discovering what he about to happen, laid down the army, the tribal warriors out of their position, saving the army from almost certain annihilation. She takes the enobbling with philosophic calm, declaring that she will remain plain "Ma" and not Lady Brown. Married Tribe's Chief. When her missionary husband died, "Ma" married the chief of the tribe, and has borne four children. She has grandchildren, some of whom are blonde haired and almost white. She has been a mother to the tribe, reigning almost as a queen. Through a knowledge of the curative powers of plants and drugs, she has been a loyal and faithful "medicine Man," curing the ills of her people. With the coming into Liberia of the American rubber interests, "Ma" Brown started a general store, handling fruits, lows and fresh bread for the Americans charring the forests with thousands of workers. She has amassed a fortune. She has attained her English with its Canadian accent, and she keeps up with world progress through the receiving of newspapers. She wears roomy, flowing gingham mother, hubbards, the cloth for which is sent in from a London store every year. She has never back to Canada, declaring that she could raise her daughters better in Liberia than in America. New Jersey Women To Meet Oct. 16 at Salem Atlantic City, N.
