DEMOCRATS TEAR DOWN DELANY BANNERS Hotel Bellmen Association Celebrate Mortgage Burning
First All-Day Health Conference Is Held In Harlem By Tuberculosis and Health Association of Harlem
Health Commissioner Wynne Suggests Slogan "Let Harlem Be Health Conscious," After Speeches by Drs. Dublin and Galdston
"Let Harlem be Health Conscious" was the slogan suggested by Commissioner Shirley W. Wynne, upon being introduced by Harry L. Hopkins, director of the New York Tuberculosis and Health Association, at the first all-day conference ever to be held in Harlem, under the auspices of the Harlem Tuberculosis and Health Committee, the City Department of Health and associated agencies, on Wednesday, October 23, at the West 137th Street
was the slogan sioner Shirley introduced by rector of the and Health A day conference, under the Tuberculosis and Health department of Health and Wednesday, October 23, Y. W. C. A. This slogan was selected as highly appropriate following addresses by Dr. Ligo Galdston of crosses by Iago Galdston of the New York Tuberculosis and Health Association, and Dr. Louis I Dublin of the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, in which belief was affirmed that, contrary to popular superstition, the Negro is not essentially racially susceptible to disease, but is, rather, a victim or a high sickness and mortality rate in New York because of the peculiar economic conditions to which she is subjected.
Fatalistic Attitude Wrong.
A fatalistic attitude with regard to the Negro and health is without limitation and destructive, according to Dr. Dublin. "The health conditions of the Negro in Harlem are about as good, if not better than those of the Negro in any other large city in the country," he said. "The death rate of the Negro in New York city is a little less than that of any northern city and is distinctly better than that of most southern cities. Only in the rural sections of the South are the Negro's health situations, anything he what we should like to find. "Obviously, then, we must conclude that there are but two solutions to be adopted in this fight for Harlem; first, ameliorative health agencies in the section; second, an earnest effort on the part of Negroes themselves to colonize the rural sections outlying New York and thus avoid the terrible city question which is responsible for the greater part of their mortality rate, which is, even at its lowest, in considerable excess of the white race."
Excess Mortality Rates.
Particularly serious, it was explained, are the excess mortality rates from pneumonia, which is twice that of the city at large; infant mortality, also twice that of the city at large; and tuberculosis, which is three times that of the city at large. All these exceptions, said Dr Galston, are the result of conjured living, and not of any inquests that depreciated status of the Negro to the Negro's Negro depends on the Negro himself," said Dr Galston, "for example, we expect to make headway in our fight against tuberculosis here in Haiti, we must be organized agencies to improve the environmental conditions in the fullest extent. For this we need intensive education and education should be carried on throughout the entire section and be capable of doing so—the schools, in the churches, in internal organizations, and in all other individuals or agencies involved in the health consciousness will come a Harlem vastly reaped of diseases and released from a high mortality."

HOTEL BELLMEN
BURN MORTGAGE
ON HARLEM HOME
35th Anniversary Observance Finds Club Free of Indebtedness
one of the chief features of the observance of its 35th anniversary by the Hotel Bellmen Beneficial Association, 398 St. Nicholas avenue, on Monday night, October 28, was the burning of the mortgage on its present home, full payment of which had been made last April. The mortgage was organized in 1894, its first home being at 104 West 33rd street. The first move was to Seventh avenue, between 36th and 37th streets, the next to 39th West 35th street, and the final to its present location on St. Nicholas avenue. In taking over this property, July, 1925, there was a mortgage of $25,000. The organization assumed $17,000, and this was reduced to $8,000, up to 1929, and this was paid in April, 1929. This achievement comes under the administration of James C. Denham, who is in his second term as president; Robert E. Horn, financial secretary for ten years, and W. O. Terrell, who has been treasurer since the Hotel Bellman group was organized. The occasion of the anniversary and mortgage burning was a scene of festivity. The committee on arrangements, with vice-President Samuel M. Oke of the chairman, conducted an elaborate program, leading up to and following the mortgage burning, with addresses, recitations and musical numbers. George S. Johnson was master of ceremonies, and he was introduced by President Denham.
Coming to the mortgage burning, the master of ceremonies presented Berry Lewis Hicks and Grandson Hite to perform the ceremony, which they did amid great acclaim. After singing the "Star Spangled Banner," the invocation was given by the Rev. Dr. J. W. Robinson, pastor of St. Mark's M. L. Church. The first offering was a trombone solo by Mrs. Elise Draper, followed by addresses by Alderman Fred R. Moore of the 19th A. D. Attorney Hubert T. Delany, Republican congressional candidate in the 21st District, and Counselor Cornelius W. McDougall. Chris Smith, composer and pianist, and Henry Troxon, tenor, put over a lovely original skit, embracing songs, piano numbers and witty sayings, and the Alderman John C. Hawkins of the 21st A. D. made a talk, Mrs. Katie C. Bennett recited, and then came the burning of the mortgage. After this treatment, had died down, the program continued with a reading, "Stops of Three Glasses," by George B Hawkins, and a violin solo by Master James Z. Horne, accompanied by Mr. Mitchell.
Attorney Francis E. Rivers, Republican candidate for the State Assembly from the 19th D. W., was the next speaker, and he was followed by Mrs. Marine Brooks Riley who gave a dramatic reading, after which Cell Service Commissioner Ferdinand L. Merton took a piano solo. Mrs. Louise Curtis, who gave the piano throughout the program and reminisces by Alfred L. Brown, the well known cigar maker of West 15th street, one of the oldest

In 1920 he was again appointed, serving until his death.
Friend to Teachers

CHICAGO MURDER WITNESS SLAIN
Cincinnati, Ill.—Shelley McDougall, Negro, a principal witness for the State in the forthcoming trial of Leut. Phil Carroll, four members of his squad and four hostlers indicted for the murder of Octavius Organdy, was killed Sunday, October 20.
Though police, after long investigation, declared the killing the result of a love affair, Frank J Loesch, First Assistant State's Attorney launched an independent investigation.
"The motive may have been framed," he said. "I will not accept the police theory without a careful investigation."
Mr. Loesch's opinion was echoed by Assistant State's Attorney William H Haynes and Charles Lumsbury, who have been assisting in the investigation of the Organdy murder.
Grandad an attorney, opposing City Collector Morris Eller for the Republican Committee membership in the 8th District was killed during the April 1955 primary.
McDougall's greatest value to the prosecution lay in the fact he identified Carroll and his squad as present at the shooting when Organdy met his death.

DELANY CHARGES
TAMMANY WITH
UNFAIR ATTACKS
Tearing Down Banners,
Raising Race Issue,
Herding Floaters
"Tammy Hall is now frantic in its efforts to defeat my candidacy," charged Hubert T. Delany, Republican nominee for Congress in the Twenty-first District, in a statement Monday afternoon. Mr. Delany asserted that the Tiger has resorted to the tearing down of his street banners, the intimidation of the employees, the raising of the race issue, and the burgling into the Harlem districts of a number of floaters.
This method of attack, Delany claims, started during registration walk with Republican organization captains reported that the Tammy organization captains reported that the Tammy election officials were slowing up the enrollment of voters. Lines were so long at several of the registration places that citizens, after waiting in line as long as their time permitted, left in disgust.
Reports were also brought into the various Republican Headquarters that, "floaters" had been brought in and were being registered in several election districts. It was reliably reported to the Delany headquarters that the workers of Joseph A. Gavegan, his Democratic opponent, had been seeding persons through the Washington Heights district to instruct all voters to vote against Delany simply because of race. This, however, has seemed to strengthen Mr. Delany's position, because it is felt that all real American citizens will resent an attack upon Delany who has been endorsed by Nicholas Murray Butler, president of Columbia University. Following closely on the announcement of the endorsement of Mr. Delany's candidacy by Dr. Butler, several street banners were torn down. The banners were replaced on Monday.
Isaacs, Democrat, Emphasizes Color Line In 19th A.D.
Irwin Isaacs, Democratic nominee for the State Assembly from the 19th A. D., and who was a candidate in 1928, made a strong attempt at that time to emphasize the color line by writing a letter to the white voters of the district, asking for their support solely on the ground that he is a white men.
The full text of the letter he wrote is as follows:
The Nineteenth Assembly District, which you live in, extends from 18th street to 137th street. Within this boundary there lives 95 percent enrolled Republican voters and 5 percent white enrolled voters. In the Democratic enrollment there is 95 percent white and 5 percent colored.
"Our backs are to the wall. We must fall in line. Upon the records in Albany our Assemblyman, Mr. Grenthal, introduced a bill, to have a colored Judge decode your cases. To whom he is catering? For his own selfish benefit he is forgetting that we are being crowded out. Why did he not try and push a bill in Albany to make a dividing line on 125th street in the first reapportionment? No, he didn't. It may take a few votes away from him. He is making a very colorful, something Mr. Grenthal does not try to remedy, and furthermore, is ashamed to even live amongst us. Now, neighbors, it is about time you should not be sold anymore.
"If Abraham Cohen meets you or his representative calls on you, ask him who his boss is (this answer must be the truth), Mr. Charles Anderson, the Internal Revenue Collector, a very prominent colored gentleman Mr. Cohen is his secretary. Now figure out why Mr. Cohen asks you to work for Grenal. For other reasons, to support his colored boss and his own selfish self. This you voters must stop. The only way to stop this is to vote for IRWIN ISAACS, your Democratic candidate for Assembly."
Vote Early
All Harlem voters are urged on Tuesday, November 5, to voix for Hubert T. Delany, regular Republican candidate for Congress, and for all their local candidates.
The polls are open on Tuesday from 6 a.m. until 6 p.m. Vote early and avoid the rush.

Boston, Mass.—While Boston prepares to elect a Mayor next Tuesday Afric Boston fights over the dead "Birth of a Nation" battle of 14 years ago: The mayoral issue will be determined by a small plurality. The approximately 8,000 registered Afric voters normally hold the determining balance of power.

So in order to flag to serve as city chief executive Curley the town is municipally from 1921 to 1925; and there are non-partisan, by the grace of Re-Africans who strenuously maintain publican strategists. Hence, no that he then fully purged himself party emblems on the town ballots, of his "Birth of a Nation" stand no party labels for the candidates, in the first term.

Among the most ardent Curley supporters of the second regime was the, leading opponent of the first, the doughy Wm. Monroe, who led the "Birth of a Nation" fight against him. Mr. Curley's most turbulent opponents concede him the prize of Massachusetts' foremost political campaign.

C CENTS IN (TEN CENTS IN)
J. R. A. FOREIGN LANDS
Boston Is Non-Partisan.
Normally, Boston is as Democratic as New York or Texas. But Massachusetts, though Smith got its electoral votes last year, is Republican. So in order to flag Curley the town is municipally non-partisan, by the grace of Republican strategists. Hence, no party emblems on the town ballots, no party labels for the candidates, no party tags denote the followers. All three of the mayoralty candidates are Democrats, but if the stalking horse can get enough votes from leading candidate Curley, a mayoral Democrat, a agreeable to Republicans, will be the next Mayor.
The non-partisan arrangement also prevents an incumbent of the Mayor's from succeeding himself. Hence the present non-partisan Republican Mayor is not a candidate. He must wait at least four years to run again, just as Curley has had to do since he went out in 1925.
A. Formidable Opponent.
The most formidable Curley opponent is Frederick W. Mansfield, lawyer, man of parts, former state treasurer. He is undoubtedly worthy of the support of all of his fellow citizens whom he can successfully impress. There is no reason why Africas shouldn't support him. But there is every reason for not dragging the "Birth of a Nation" red herring across the trail for the purpose of opposing Curley and supporting Mansfield, is the way neutral Africa and even Curley Africas look at the thing.
It is claimed here by some whose predictions are given credence that Curley will win, however, small his plurality; that it is no strategy at all to make a "Birth of a Nation" issue to slap the race in the ice for opposing Curley's next term, as the small African gets such a balance of power, power to figure so prominently politically and municipally, in the next mayoral regime only once in a quadrenium, and therefore should now make the most of it.
Named Negro To Board.
They further point out that Curley was first Mayor to appoint a Negro member of the City's election handling machinery managers, the Board of Registrars—this during the "Birth of a Nation term." And they stress the fact that this same person, a lawyer, was the first African to be Assistant Corporation Counsel, to which post he was appointed by Mayor Curley in his second term. But what seems to rankle most is that there are so many constructive grounds on which, as usually concerned citizens, Afric anti-Curleyites can base their opposition, to permit themselves to get all] het up over the dead "Birth of a Nation" issue! Commenting on a paid political advertisement in the Boston Chronicle, neutral observers point out that the anti-Curleyites jumped so readily to the "Birth of a Nation" corpse until they even got the date wrong. The "ad" had it as 1913. It was in 1915. It also carries quotation from an address delivered by former Mayor Fitzgerald, in which "Honey Fitz" cited Curley's refusal to ban the "infamous" photoplay as insult to the race and contemptible.
At that time, however, Fitzgerald was opposing Curley for Mayor and himself "red herringing the trail" with the "Birth of a Nation." folks here maintain, and they also stress the fact that now Fitzgerald is an ardent Curleyite. In fact objection is not based on opposition to Curley but" to Africas dragging out the "Birth of a Nation," corpse around which they rally to mourn, and to not drive them on constructively. It is claimed that it simply serves to help Curley's white opponents pull their chestnuts out of the fire.

Workers Busy Lining Up
To Raise Funds For
Annual Budget
The Sunday afternoon services in the Branch are not conducted during the summer months. They reopened on the first Sunday in October and the interest with which members are attending is delightful. The attendance throughout the month has been excellent. Some of the meetings are very informal; there is music and discussion, and sometimes tea. Others are of a more formal nature, when there is a speaker, and perhaps a soloist. On the second Sunday in October, according to our custom, we honored the memory of those of our members who have passed on during the year in the annual memorial service. On October 20, the colored candidates running for election in all parties were given opportunity to state their platforms.
The Education Department is offering a new class in "glue work." This is one of the very lucrative new novel trades for women and involves the making and painting of parchment lampshades. Skill in doing it may mean employment, or it might mean having beautiful shades for painting a wall cooler. The instructor has had a wealth of experience in this field, and is now a forelady and designer in one of the outstanding shops in the "Village."
The flavor of campaign permeates most groups in the building and the members in clubs and classes start on the annual effort which makes possible the work of the coming year. The supper meeting of campaign leaders on October 24 was well attended, and the captains are already busy signing up workers and giving out material. The workers' meeting will take place Thursday, October 31, at 7 p. m.
Members of the staff and committee attended a conference held October 3 in Central Branch auditorium. The conference was made up of representatives from the leadership—both volunteer and paid—of all Associations in New York City.

The girls were alert with interest through the entire period of her talk and we got the atmosphere and "feel" of the countries discussed because of her informal and really fascinating manner of discussion. She had dozens of pictures which added - in no small measure to the pleasure of the evening

The Week of November 2 ASTROLOGICALLY CONSIDERED
BY THEARCHER
The best birthdate of the week seems to be the 6th and those who have this birthdate will find the birthyear full of opportunities for gain and business progress. Social matters and the opposite sex will be the cause of much worry. The people of this date would do well to make this strictly a business or professional year, and wait later for the romantic side. The health of some feminine member of the family will not what it should be. The business affairs should be straightforward. The 2nd is a rather good day for romantic matters, and will bring some unusual development in the birthyear through romantic affairs and through the opposite sex. Finance matters will be a bit uncertain and it is not a good year to make any financial investments. Many things will be cleared up for most of the people. The 3rd is much like the 2nd, but the year holds more promise for those who are professionals. The 4th and 5th will bring some important changes to its people. Old friendships and providential help in the time of need will do

much to make the year pleasant. Family matters will require some re-adjustments. The 7th will bring a birthyear full of unusual opportunities and some of the dreams that will come will be remarkable for their prophetic foright, but it seems that the dreams not be understood when they should be understood. The health will need care. Domestic affairs and romance will bring happiness to the people born on the 8th and 9th, but it seems that business and employment will not be very favorable. The 8th's more favored from a financial point of view, but the 9th has the stronger social and romantic outlook.

One of the most notable parties of the fall season for the younger set took place Saturday evening, October 26, when Mr. and Mrs. Wm. H. Christian, 4159 Gunther avenue. The Bronx, entertained Miss Lurline M. Harper with a surprise party on her sixteenth birthday.
It was a gorgeous party. The house was decorated with plants and autumn leaves. Members of the party who furnished the string music sat closely, around a rippling fountain banked with flowers and erns. The basement which was used to serve the refreshments, was decorated in Hallowen's fashion, and the beautiful triple deck birthday cake used for the table was splendidly made and decorated by Gordon E. Brown.
Miss Lurline M. Harper was the last to arrive and was almost carried off her feet, when seventy five high school and college girls and boys, who had been secreted in the upper rooms sweoped down and surprised her.
It was really a surprise in every sense and in every way, for after she had partly recovered from her embarrassment she was led to a private room where she was further surprised by being presented and dressed in a beautiful gown of peach satin and tulle, with silver broocaded slippers and all accessories. Then she was brought down to join the mery throng.
Miss Harper is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Leonard A. Harper, 862 East 225th street, and a number of the senior class at Wadleigh High School. After her graduation in January, 1930, she will enter Teachers' Training School in February.
Miss Harper was showered with gifts, from expensive handkerchiefs to the latest Parts gowns and jewelry.
Among her guests were Mrs. Lester A. Walton, who served as chaperone for her charming daughters and a group of girls from the Rockefeller apartments; Mr. and Mrs. Gilbert Moore, son of Alderman Fred R. Moore, were chaperones for their son and daughter and others; Mrs. Richard E. Challenger brought a number of the guests from the city; Mr. and Mrs. Alonzo B. Conick of the Colonial Apartments; Mrs. Carter, wife of Dr. Cartet; Mr. and Mrs. Louis J. Harper and Mrs. G. E. Brown of The Broux.
Others present were Miss Carlyne Battle, daughter of Police Sergeant Samuel Battle, Miss Corinne Harper, cousin of Miss Lurline M. Harper, and the Mises Gladys McDonald, Roselle, N. J. Ollie De Loach, Harriet Harriet, Elmford, N.

Toxin-Antitoxin Campaign Saved 107 Children In Past Nine Months and Officials Plead With Parents To Immunize Their Babies
Serious outbreaks of diphtheria in 1932 and 1933 were forecast by Health Commissioner Shirley W. Wynne and Edward Fisher Brown, director of the Diphtheria Prevention Commission, in their first report to Thomas W. Lamont, chairman of the Commission. The report covers the first nine months of the activities waged in the campaign to make the city diphtheria proof, and was made per-

Serious outbreaks of
1933 were forecast by Hes-
W. Wynne and Edward N.
the Diphtheria Preventio
first report to Thomas W.
Commission. The report
months of the activities w
make the city diphtheria
sonally to Mr. Lamont.
One of the outstanding features of the report is that section showing that as the result of the toxin-ant toxin campaign which was opened last January, that the lives of 107 children in this city have been saved in the nine months period. In addition to this there were 400 fewer cases of the malady among children of the city than in any similar nine months of the previous six years.
To Recur In 1932.
Dr. Wynne's forecast on the outbreak of diphtheria three years hence is based on a detailed scientific statistical analysis of the disease in New York City which shows that diphtheria recurs in waves of increased and decreased frequency—the crests and valleys of these waves occurring with unintering regularity at intervals of approximately every six and one-six years. The last wave began to rise in this city in 1926 and reached its crest in 1927. And Dr. Wynne says he is convinced that the most wave will come in 1932.
The saving in child life made so this year," Commissioner Wynn told Mr. Lament, "shows that the Diphtheria Prevention Commission, under the direction of Mr. Brown, and acting in conjunction with the Department of Health has more than made good its promise to save children's lives by means of toxin-anti-toxin. At present New York City suffers the loss of about 600 lives annually because of diphtheria. If we can keep up the interest in toxin-anti-toxin and at the first nine months of our campaign can already show a saving of more than 100 lives, we have good prospects of practically wiping out diphtheria in the next two years.
Anticipate Epidemic.
Modern methods of controlling disease demand that one anticipate the occurrence of epidemic diseases such as diphtheria. It is important for the parents of this city to be on guard against the wave increased prevalence of diphtheria which will menace the health of their children in 1932 and 1933. It means of toxin-antitoxin children can be protected against this dangerous disease, but it takes about six months after treatment for the protection to develop. Once acquired the protection lasts for life.
Diptera takes its greatest toll of lives during the second, third, fourth and fifth years of life. I once urge parents having boots and young children, to have them immunized with toxin-antitoxin now, in order that the innocent youngsters will not be victims of gastroenteria when it again becomes prevalent in 1932 and 1933. Commissioner also showed interest in the first month of the present year the work of Diptera Prevention Commission resulted in more than 60,000 young children being protected, means of toxin-antitoxin, and nearly 50,000 were treated by physicians.
Should Immunize Babies.
in much as many of these intensive work were more than two years old and since each year more than 125,000 new born babies are added to the city's population, the commission emphasizes that the intensive work now being carried out protect children against diphtheria must be continued and that

How the campaign against diphtheria is rapidly reducing the number of cases and deaths in this city is best illustrated by a survey covering the last ten years. In 1920 there were 14,106 cases, and 1045 deaths, in 1921, 15,110 and 891; in 1922, 10,427 and 873, in 1923, 8,050 and 553; in 1924, 9,067 and 714; in 1925, 9,051 and 601; in 1926, 7,531 and 477; in 1927, 11,507 and 717; in 1928, 10,770 and 642 and in the first nine months of 1929, 7,025 and 385.

Felt Worn-Out
"I WAS very weak and had such a tired feeling, even when I had not been doing any work," says Miss Mary Powell, 253 Oak St. Montgomery, Ala., whose picture is printed above. I was sleepy and no matter how much I rested, or sat around I still felt worn-out. I had a bad taste in my mouth, and I ached all the time.
"I felt like I needed a tonic, and as I had heard so much, Cardui and what it had done for others, I thought it would help me. After my first bottle, I felt like like, than I had before, and I didn't feel quite so tired. I kept on taking it, and I gained and felt so much better. It sure is a splendid tonic."

THE NEW YORK AGE
A splendid group of citizens, men and women, of both race groups accepted invitation to a dinner given by the West 137th Street Branch Y. W. C. A. in observance of its 20th anniversary, and to mark the opening of the fair campanile to raise its share of the city-wide budget. The local branch has been given a quota of $0,000.

Mrs. Bethine was elementally enthusiastic in her plea to the men and women of the race, gave of their fuller means to the support of W.

The speaker declared that work of the 18th street branch W. W. C. A was not conned to New York City, but that its helping hand had been given to hundreds of girls from all sections of the country, and that its influence, and that of other W. W. C.

Chicago Grand Jury Indicts Bishop A. J. Carey and His Secretary On a Charge of Selling Civil Service Jobs
Chicago, Ill.—Charges that Bishop A.J. Carey of the A. M. E. Church, a member of the Civil Service Commission, had been bartering civil service jobs through one Loyal McGill, a white man who had been dismissed from the Bailiff's office for alleged irregularities, have been declared absolutely false, following an investigation by the Keystone National Detective Agency, which was employed by the presiding elders of the Chicago Conference of the
CAMPAIGN MASS MEETING
It was shown that McGill had been victimizing white men and women, mutuling them of various sums by representing himself as associated with Bishop Carey in the securing of positions.
Victims Take Action.
His failure to deliver the goods aroused his victims to action, and they called upon McGill for an explanation. McGill died from the city, but was brought back by some of the people he had defrauded and by them was forced to meet Bishop Carey on October 1, 1929, and this was the first time the prelate had ever sent the man. A police heftenant was present at this time, and Bishop Carey urged two of McGill's victims to sign a complaint for McGill's arrest, but they demurred, offering a reason that their own hope of getting their money back lay in keeping McGill out of tail.
Grand Jury Indicts.
McGill had claimed to have had an interview with Bishop Carey, in the latter's office, on September 27, but it was shown that on that day, and for several days before and after, Bishop Carey had been in attendance upon the Indiana Annual Conference. Despite this, Associated Press dispatches under date of October 21 state that the grand jury had returned true bulls against Bishop Carey and that the Turtle Reeves it, charging conspiracy and burglary in the sale of city jobs, and that Reeves had made a complete confession.
10,000 Witness Review To Mayor James J. Walker
More than 10,000 Harlem residents were present at the 309th Infantry Armory, 30 West 143rd street, Tuesday evening, October 20, to witness a joint review by the 309th Infantry and the 165th Infantry, formerly the Old 60th, in honor of Mayor James J. Walker, whose interest in the colored Regiment has been marked this year. It was the Mayor's first appearance in Harlem since the appearance of $2,000,000 in the joint quarter and Administrator Buddy complete the 309th Armory. He was given an enthusiastic welcome by both the soldiers and the general public.
He was introduced by Col William A. Taylor, who said he had been trying to get the Mayor up to Harlem for four years and it was not until Alderman Fred R. Moore celebrated his fifteenth wedding anniversary that he was able to do so. Col Taylor also said that he had been won to Mayor Walker for his splendid attitude of mind, in fitness and general desire to and all the people of this great city, the Mayor said he had been the man of the Army, now an established fact. When completed the 30th Armory and Administration building will be the finest in the city. The Mayor also said he was pleased to see a white and colored regiment that had fought side by side in France com-

Charlotte, N. C.—All classes were dispensed with and all activities halted at Johnson C. Smith University at 2 o'clock on Monday, October 21, at which time funeral services were being held over the remains of Mrs. Jane Berry Smith widow of the late Johnson C. Smith whose large benefactions enabled the Biddle University, to expand its activities to its present large proportions, and brought a change of its name as a tribute of appreciation to its benefactor. Mrs. Smith, 72 years of age, had been alighting for several years, but she made a trip to Johnson last June to attend the dedication service of the new university church, her last gitt to the institution. There are now eight buildings for our school, and the school is now held on the campus, all of which were given by Mrs. Smith.

LILYWHITES THREATEN WAR ON PRESIDENT.
Advices from Washington indicate that all is not harmonious between the Southern Lilywhites, who claim to have supported Mr. Hoover for President, and the present leaders of the Republican administration. One of these disappointed Hoover supporters is said to be Colonel Horace Mann, who was credited with being responsible for engineering the revolt among Southern Democrats, which put the electoral vote of four Southern states from the Smith to the Hoover column.
After election Col. Mann naturally expected to dictate "all Federal appointments in the South, planning to exclude all Negroes not only from office but from any voice in the party councils. This plan was said to have failed to win presidential approval and Colonel Mann returned for a while, somewhat disgruntled. He is said to have threatened to organize "the better people of the South, meaning thereby the Lilywhites, against Mr. Hoover's renomination, although that event is at least three years off.
During the campaign of last Fall Colonel Mann was associated with Claudius Huston of Tennessee, who has since been elected chairman of the Republican National Committee. Mr. Huston's action in bringing about harmony in his home state, by the recognition of the Republic can contingent led by Robert Church and Congressman Taylor, was bitterly resented by Colonel Mann and has led to a breach of the relations between these former allies.
The Florida Lilywhites are voicing dissatisfaction because their candidates for United States Attorney were turned down by the President, because they failed to meet the requirements laid down for that office. Their vociferous complaints brought out an official rebuke, in a letter from the President to the Lilywhite leaders, in which he insisted that the state organization must present candidates who measure up to his requirements of public service. He maintained that "no longer shall public office be regarded as mere political patronage, but that it shall be public service."
The demand that the state organization shall dictate appointments, irrespective of merit, was dismissed as impossible and the appeal made to opponents of the administration to attack Mr. Hoover was noted, without causing any visible disturbance of confidence. This attempt of the Lilywhites to browbeat the President is characteristic of their methods in politics and betrays the temper of the breeds. They are unsafe allies in politics, as the must either rule or ruin. It is far better for Mr. Hoover to defy their efforts to ruin his chances for renomination that to allow them to rule his administration.

SOLVING POLITICAL PUZZLES.
When Representative LaGuardia was nominated for Mayor of New York by reluctant and unenthusiastic convention of Republicans, some three months ago conservative members of that party were confronted by a political puzzle. His in dependence of party dictation had altered the Republican machine, which was forced to give a perfunctory endorsement, and the kid glove Republicans did not regard his progressive policies with any degree of favor. Since that time
When Representative LaGuardia was nominated for Mayor of New York by a reluctant and unenthusiastic convention of Republicans, some three months ago, conservative members of that party were confronted by a political puzzle. His independence of party dictation had alienated the Republican machine, which was forced to give a perfunctory endorsement, and the kid glove Republicans did not regard his progressive policies with any degree of favor. Since that time Mr. LaGuardia has carried on an active and aggressive campaign, taking up the cudgels for good government and exposing the sins of omission and commission on the part of the present administration.
So able and forceful has been his campaigning that it finally extorted the praise and support of that journalist jillar of Republicanism, the New York Herald Tribune, which announced that on his record of twelve weeks campaigning, it has no hesitation in giving its suppillar of Republicanism, the New York Evening Post, long a journalistic high hatter of popular causes, afflicted with the malady of mugwumpery, has also given grudging approval so the Republican candidate, presumably because it found its opponent less, to its liking.
the Post is now nominally Republican, the support of these two papers gives a solution of the puzzle for those hesitant voters, who demand the guarantee of party labels. In the meantime Mayor Walker has begun to address himself to the serious questions of city government, with able and convincing statements of the city's needs and the preparation of plans to meet them. He is able to point to certain projects initiated during his four years of office, which will help to serve the growing needs of the population in the lines of health, housing, transportation and other departments of city activity.
The third prominent candidate for Mayor, Norman Thomas, who counts among his journalistic supporters such papers as the New York World and the Telegram, continues to arraign the political policies of both the Democratic and the Republican organizations, and to exalt the program of the Socialist party as the only way to bring about good city government.
Each of these candidates for Mayor is able and convincing in his advocacy of good government. Mayor Walker has the prestige of four years in office, as well as the drawbacks that go with his record of performance and omissions. Mr. LaGuardia has shown courage and confidence in the aggressive character of his campaign, which indicate the kind of administration he would give. Mr. Thomas represents the best type of Socialism, adapted to constructive politics, but the chief function of Socialism so far has been to furnish progressive policies for adoption by other parties.
No far as the Negro voters are concerned, we believe that their interests, so far as they can be separated from other classes of voters, would be safe in the hands of any one of these candidates. They will probably align themselves according to their party affiliations, without going very far out of the way. Those who are strictly Republican can vote for Mr. LaGuardia, with the assurance that his Republicanism is now confirmed by the support of the party's organs. The local Democrats can find reasons for the support of Mayor Walker on his past record while those who believe in seeking to make civic ideals come true, may find a fitting candidate in Mr. Thomas.
There are other candidacies, however, which should concern the voters of the race more closely, especially those in the Harlem districts who have the opportunity to vote for Aldermen, Assemblymen and Congressmen. In the Twentyfirst Congress district, Hubert Delany deserves the largest measure of support for the wonderful campaign he has made and the favorable impression he has created among all classes of voters. Then there are candidates for the Assembly and the Board of Aldermen in both the Nineteenth and the Twentyfirst districts who should bring out a large vote.
If the voters will attend to their part of the election by voting early for the candidate of their choice, all these political puzzles will be solved in the right way.
ANOTHER CHAMPION PASSES.
Following close upon the death of Louis Marshall, a strong champion for the constitutional rights of the Negro, comes the passing of Moorfield Storey, president of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Like the great Jewish advocate, Mr. Storey was a lawyer of the first rank, who saw in the fundamental law of the land redress for all the oppressions from which the race suffers. Like Mr. Marshall, he contributed of his efforts to invoke the powers of the Constitution in all cases involving human rights, without recompense or reward.
The long standing quality of Mr. Storey's service to the race may be gauged from the fact that he was in his early career secretary to Charles Sumner, Senator from Massachusetts during the Civil War and the period of Reconstruction. He must have then imbibed the spirit of liberty to all men and equal justice that were so marked in his later life. During his long service as president of the Advancement Association he was indefatigable in his arraignment of lynching and all other forms of oppression inflicted upon a helpless people. He fought them with the ardor of a patriot and the zeal and skill of a learned advocate of the law of the land.
Nor were his sympathies limited to the condition of the downtrodden and oppressed of his own land. He espoused the cause of the exploited and oppressed of all lands, where a champion was needed to redress their wrongs and secure them a hearing in the court of public opinion. It was through his unwaiving faith in the power of appeal through the press and public meetings, a well a, through legal tribunal that
THE NEW YORK AGE
the causes he represented obtained a wide hearing which gradually created favorable sentiment in their behalf. In his steadfast and unfaltering faith in the power of American institutions to work out the solution of the many problems created through racial prejudice and discrimination, he proved himself a true patriot and a lover of his country. His advocacy of the cause of the oppressed of all races was singularly akin to that of the great Senator, with whom he was early associated. That he was a Democrat in politics proved that the love of justice and the hatred of oppression are not always affected by partisan affiliations. The race has lost a faithful advocate and a mighty force for good in the passing of Moorfield Storey.
IMPORTED VICE IN HARLEM.
Periodically there comes an outcry, the public press as to the prevalence of crime in Harlem and an effort is made picture that district as the most vicious section of the great city. The latest break of this sort was based on the official report of the Committee of Fourteen, which was organized some year ago to suppress commercialized prostitution.
In this latest report it was alleged that crime is rampant and that liquor is so almost as openly as before prohibition was made a part of the constitution. It was admitted that similar conditions exist in other parts of the city, but the conditions appeared to be worse in Harlem. It was explained that this condition was largely due to the fact that Harlem has been made a sore spot, owing to demands of the visitors from other parts of the city and out of to some specially those from the South.
While this may be a plausible reason for the alleged existence of so many parts of this stripe in Harlem, it must be remembered that the reports of paid investigators are not always to be taken their face value. For instance, investigator claimed to have visited eighty-five speakeasies, ninety per cent which were owned and operated by whites, five per cent, owned by whites, five per cent, owned by whites, operated by Negroes and the other per cent, owned and managed by Negroes. In every case, it was stated that customers were both whites and whites.
On the face of it, these findings are largely untrue, or at least exaggerated. Harlem has been misrepresented man any other part of the community, these investigations of vice, as the tony of the police will show. Most resorts where vicious conditions exist strictly barred to colored customers and in many of the other places there mixing between the guests and entertainers. Most of the cabarets and night clubs are conducted in an orderly manner, closing at 3 o'clock as the requires.
Harlem has its share of vice and piety, but it is no such sink of intrigue some of the newspapers would make it appear, on the authority which reports as those given out by committee of Fourteen. Even this latest report shows that the majority of the ports are owned and run by white proprietors, who gander to the jaded ages of white visitors from other sections, is manifestly unfair to charge such conditions to the permanent residents of Harlem.

The remarkable case of Ben Bess, who was finally set free by a decision of the Supreme Court of South Carolina, which held that the Governor could not revoke his pardon, had many peculiar features. Bess was a successful farmer living near Florence who was convicted of criminal assault upon a white woman, one of his tenants and sentenced to thirty years imprisonment in the penitentiary. After he had served thirteen years of his sentence, the woman made an affidavit, declaring that her testimony was false and that Bess was innocent.
Upon this affidavit, together with a petition from several white and colored citizens, the Governor issued an unconditional pardon and Bess was set at liberty last May. An investigation followed with a view of having the woman indicted for perjury and she recanted her affidavit, declaring that she only intended to say that she forgave Bess. It was then suggested that Bess return to the penitentiary for safety, which he did, and in July the governor undertook to revoke the pardon and Bess was kept a prisoner
Habeas corpus proceedings were instituted to secure the release of liess, but one judge decided against him. His appeal to the Supreme Court was heard with seventeen judges sitting on bane, and their final decision was that the Governor had no power to revoke the appeal and the immediate release of the prisoner was ordered. In the long legal fight to
secure freedom for Bess Attorney N. J. Frederick of Columbus, was his chief counsel, who persisted in invoking the aid of the courts to free his client. Mr. Frederick is also editor of the Palmetto Press, a weekly paper in which he is

The quarters occupied by this court have not had the benefit of broom or mop for several months past and are filthly almost beyond belief. "As you enter the building, you are confronted by a flight of stairs thickly coated with dirt and littered with every conceivable kind of refuse—from the humble cigarette butt to the most disgusting form of human sputum. As you reluctantly climb these stairs, you are sickened and almost overcome by the vile odors emitting from the washrooms. These unhealthy odors are not confined to any one area, but seem to permeate with vile insistence the entire building. On every hand you see signs of gross neglect. The halls, the office, the library, aye, even the court rooms, seem to breed disease.
"When you consider the fact that this is one of the most congested court districts in the City of New York, and that a great number of the persons who have occasion to visit this court are women—some of them with little babies in their arms,—you naturally wonder what effect this hotbed of lurking diseases will have on the health of the community.
"This, however, must not mark the limit of your endurance. You enter the main court room (Part I) on 'Landlords' and 'Tenants' Day. You will find the benches more or less crowded with persons who are requested to remain as quiet as possible. Inside the rail and in the jury box, you will see seated a group of young men and women. This group is commonly known as the 'court room favorites. They are the people who have come from the offices of the various marshals and landlords to answer cases of non-payment of rent against the hundreds of tenants seated in the body of the room. They are the people who boast body of their influence in court. They are a cheap moyley, ignorant, sordid group, who must be drawn from the lower strata of society. Thus, however, seem to be filled with a spirit of self-importance. Unreubked by the court, they converse with each other in a loud tone of voice and laugh unroarously at anything which a tenant may say in his or her defense. "Many tenants hesitate to address the court; they fear the ridicule of the 'court room favorites.'
There was a time when the Seventh District Municipal Court was kept spotlessly clean, when none but attaches of the court were permitted behind the rail; when one could approach the bar of justice without fear of ridicule or hope of favor. But those days seemed to have gone forever.
"What has happened to the people of Harlem? Have they no civic pride? Have they lost every sense of self-respect? Have they no regard for the health of themselves and others? What of the local newspapers? Have they purposefully blinded themselves, to the existing conditions?
"The dignity of the Seventh District Municipal Court is smeared with a thick coating of scum. It is crowded out by dust and rubbish. It is unsecured by strong, offensive odors. It is reduced to a state of non-existence by the degrading practices of the 'court room favorites.' Can nothing he done to remedy these conditions? Must we forever suffer this blot upon the dignity of our community? "
"Surely, such conditions could not exist in any district but the Seventh--where the patronage is ninety per cent, colored
Crosswaith Compliments Pullman Porter Editor
Editor Pulman Porter News
Permit to compliment you upon your timely article, "Friends in Need," which appeared in The Age of October 26, in your column "Things Seen, Done and Heard Among Pulman Employees." Not only it is a splendid piece of writing but it strikes a note not often heard among our group.
The events of that memorable night three years ago in St Luke's Hall, when the Pulman porters celebrated the first anniversary of the birth of their Union, are still my mind. As you may recall, I was presenting officer on that occasion. I had been on an previous public function (the organization). To read your article is actually to live again during those three hours on the night of August 20, 1926, and feel the compellance
an outspoken advocate of justice for the race, of which he is a worthy representative. It is through this type of lawyer that the race must seek legal redress and the maintenance of its constitutional rights.
tugs at one's racial heartstrings as each speaker sounded the high note of hope and idealism; to actually see again the upturned faces of 1,500 Pullman porters as they literally drank the rich oratorical wine that flowed so freely from the throat of those who were urging them on, on the pioneering road of trade unionism.
I can almost hear again the words of Norman Thomas as he cautioned his audience to "stand firm" and "to dedicate their lives to the principles upon which their struggle rested their own union rested." Truly, that was a night that tried our souls. I often met today porters who were present on that occasion, and they too speak with kindness and appreciation of the advice given to them by Norman Thomas.
You will be pleased to know that many porters have contributed liberally to my present Congressional campaign and, invariably they say as you in your article have said, friend in need is a friend indeed.

Houston Leading In Educational Equipment
Under the auspices of a Citizens Committee, composed of many of the more prominent professional and business men and women of the colored group of Houston Texas, and at the expense of the Negro population, a survey of the living, working and housing conditions of Negroes was made in order to ascertain the status of the Negroes along the abovementianed lines. The study was directed by the National Urban League, through its southern field director or.
While many dark spots were disclosed and many connections in which the Negro was gravely neglected and denied participation in the benefits of several of the agencies and institutions, the advance made in education and his comparative educational status is most hopeful and encouraging.
The survey has the following to say, on the subject of education: "There is perhaps no city with a separate school system where the gain in Negro schools has approached the record made in the city of Houston within the past three years. In 1927 the number of schools as divided by the number was 68 white and 25 colored, with a property value estimated at $16,544,902 for the white and $27,808 for the colored."
The number of white schools has increased to 80, with an increased valuation, including grounds buildings, equipment to $24,715,000 While the Negro schools have not increased in number, the replacement process has provided for the erection of modern brick buildings to take the place of delapidated fire traps. The value of Negro school property has increased from $728,068 to $4,916,000. A 14 junior high schools and 66 grade schools for the white group, and 3 junior-senior high schools and 22 grade schools for Negroes. There is a municipal junior college for each group
Approximately 30,000, children make up the school population, 11,000 of whom are colored Much of the credit for the growth and expansion in the Negro school system is due to the initiative sense of justice and courage of the superintendent of the Houston public schools, E.B. Oberholtzler, a number of years superintendent of the public schools of Tulsa, Oklahoma, a city where the Negro teachers receive exactly the same salary as is paid other teachers.
In spite of this approach to a fair distribution of public funds for the education of the Negro child, there is still a wide difference in the consideration given him, as the following figures and facts will indicate. The per capita cost, based on the cost of principals, varies among the white child is $47.36, and for each Negro child, $25.35. There is no kindergarten for colored children at all, while there is a kindergarten in every school with more than six rooms for whites. The difference in the per capita cost is made possible very largely by the contrast in the salary schedule of the two groups. The superintendent has raised the standard of teachers in Negro schools, and has a program calculated to bring the Negro schools of Houston up to the standard of buildings in the Negros in Houston have the best schools south of Louisville and Washington, east of St. Louis.
With two attendance officers, one man and one woman, more library equipment in each school, teachers of romance languages, a standardized system of public school music, a qualified supervisor of the public schools, more degree teachers in the high school department, the rating of the curricula of the high school so that high school graduates may enter the freshman class of any Class A college without difficulty, a well-equipped medical and dental clinic in each district, with a full time nurse and part time physician, and dentist; and more provision and equipment for the teaching of trades and industries. Houston will lead this whole section, both in
Deprecating the attitude of many chirches, that are strictly against modern amusements for their members, the Portland, Oregon, Advocate sought to find a middle ground, as follows:
The church should encourage sacred and classical music for it has a tendency to inspire and uplift. Jazz music should be discouraged by the church. In fact, the real, siteree, genuine Christian has no place not time for any such music. The theatre-going should be moderated. That is, we should use judgment about when and what to see. If a picture of play is educational, religious or one with a good moral effect, it can be attended without religious injury. Those who favor dancing as an amusement, say that it makes one graceful. We all know anything that tends to demoralize is harmful to its participants. Therefore we know that some of the modern dances are a menace to the good morals of society. The church should go on record as encouraging amusement but, at the same time, it should encourage and offer only such types of amusements as will build character as well as entertain.
This moderate council will probably prove too advanced for the fundamentalists and not advanced enough for the modernists, so the diverse opinions as to amusements for church members will probably remained unreconciled.
Expatiating upon the vagaries of humanity, especially as exhibited in this country, the St. Louis American said in part.
This world is filled with queer humans, despite the fact that most of us are just ordinary, everyday tools who tread the ruts of life. Last week in Chicago a strange sect composed of Negroes calling themselves Moors and attaching el and bey to their sambo names, engaged the police in a fatal gun, battle. This week from Los Angeles comes the report of the "Divine Order of the Royal Arms of the Great Eleven," with the burying of a girl besides seven puppy-dogs and for four years holding expedition of the resurrection of her body, together with such ritualist tales of weird dances around the graves of two slaughtered mules which were called the "jaws of Death." All concerned were white and not very long ago, up in Pennsylvania occurred the hex murder while General Volva, leader of a strange cult somewhere near Chicago, is still holding out that the world is as flat as a pancake. Every community has some form of cult and unorthodox religious sects are increasing, in cities. At least fifty store fronts in St. Louis have a smattered sign of some "GospelP or "Spiritual" church.
Of course the majority of us are right in holding fast to proven customs and living in the experience of our forebears—that is, we are right up to a certain limit that should keep us alert to the possibility of other methods and ways.
And to indulge in a smack of philosophy who knows but that here in these United States the urgency of getting dollars is not evading into a monstrous cult which will semeday turn and devour these United States.
Anyway there seems to be little room for white people to turn their nose up at Negro voodoo with such things breaking out in various parts of the country as the "Divine Order of the Royal Arms of the Great Eleven" with the House of David, with Voliva and a South fall of Dayton, Tennessee
The St. Louis editor seems to have scored in his pointed references to freak culls among the whites. His philosophic acceptance of the queerness of humanity is a departure from the Missouriian demand to be shown.
Referring to the controversy that has risen over the administration of the Florence Mills memorial fund, the Chicago Buc said.
It is a matter of deep concern and genuine regret that the proceeds of the Florence Mills Memorial Fund, contributed by the public-spirited citizens of Chicago many many months ago for a specific cause, is the center of dissension and recrimination by those entrusted with its collection and disposition. The public of our country impatiently loyal, and appreciative. As poor as it is, it contributes liberally, always, to the appeals of those interested in public charities, benefactions or memorials. These charged with the responsibilities of trusteeship of these funds one it to the public to give prompt and public reports of such funds and see that the objects for which such sums are contributed are the recipients of these funds at the earliest possible moment that the plans for carrying them out can be executed. Making excuses does not either reassure the public confidence or aid in expediting the projects planned. There are too many appeals because so appointed to be the conduct public in which the donors hear little as to the ultimate disposition of the funds. This tends to discourage the public, and, as a result real and deserving causes and charities suffer.
The public is interested in but one phase of the controversy of the Florence Mills Memorial Association, and that is the obtaining of the memorial in keeping with the advancing standards and equipment in Negro education

Saturday, July 1993
promises made by the sponsors of the enterprise.
This is line with the suggestion made some months ago, through THE, AGE, that the committee should get busy in the performance of its mission.
Repealing two incidents related by Dr. L. H. King, in the Southwestern Christian Advocate, as an indication that there is a better South, the St. Luke Herald of Richmond said:
The other incident which joined us was an item of news by the Associated Press. It reported that a certain aristocratic social club of Atlanta refused to act favorably on the application of a high official of the Ku Klux Klan for membership in the club. Desirous of verifying the report, I waited until I had business subsequently in Atlanta in order to meet a friend of mine there whether the report could be substantiated. He said it was true and that it was the club's method of discrediting and repudiating the Klan and the ideals for which the Klan stands.
I set up another series of turning in regard to this, as in the case of the courteous conductor above mentioned. "Maybe after all" I thought, "this was a personal afternot, based on persona non grat reasons." But my further investigations assured me that the action of this exclusive social club of Atlanta was due to the discredited influence and waning estimate which happily the Klan is now experiencing in the very cradle of its birth. A rather undignified, though philosophical saying, this, "Chickens come home to roost." Both these incidents are illustrative of the integrity that is struggling to find more general expression in the South. There is a better Sooth. It is the flowering forth of such seeds of social goodwill as are being worn by such fine spirits as the Eagans, Alexanders, Durhams, Dorses, et al. May their life marvelously increase
In accounting for the annual courtesy displayed toward colored passengers by a conductor on the Birmingham Special, the suggestion was made that he "was a New Yorker who had not been Southernized."
Under the injunction, "Let Michigan Remain a Cradle of Liberty," the Detroit People's News noted an increase of race prejudice and discrimination, saying
If we take our minds back twenty years we will recall when Detroit colored citizens could buy homes in any part of the city they chose: go to a theatre and enjoy an evening's outing sitting in any place they desired, eat in any restaurant; live in any hotel, and consider themselves real citizens. With the infux of the later types of southern whites who brought with them their eternal prejudice and eternal hatred the city of Detroit of the privileges once enjoyed by Michigan citizens when Michigan was the cradle of Liberty have vanished.
There is an application of this change in the point of view with which the race was once regarded in this state to the present campaign for chief executive of the city. Since the nomination held last Tuesday this same hoodlum type of prejudiced southerners have begun celebrating a certain victory by the bombing of an apartment house on Charleyvox; by the forcible and physical eviction of a race patron from the United Artists theatre, and by another serious eviction of a woman from the Pony Express bus lines.
In the same issue was printed an open letter, written by Editor Belsuh Young to the Police Commissioner, regarding the action of the police in entering theaters and enacting persons, including women, who had purchased tickets for their seats. It is intimated that the mayorally campaign will afford an opportunity to resent such practices.
Admitting the logic or the propo-
sitor to make liquor buyers equally
equitable with the sellers the New-
folk Journal and Guide thinks that
it offers no hope of increased en-
forcement nor even for repeal or
modification. It said
Imagine, if you can, prohibition agents arresting society, politicians statesmen and other highbrow customers of bootleggers. They simply would not be done, and in this new statute we would have another despicable bit of class enforced legislation sweeping down on the unindividual, defenseless, poor and unconsidered masses. Do prohibition confecrers scoop around the windows of private homes of the wealthy and influential in our cities? Do they rush in on private social affairs of certain classes of people who live in high class neighborhoods, arrest the guests and haul them off to the police station amid humiliation and chagrin as was done in the case of a private social affair in a home in our city the other day. They do not. If this affair had been in progress in a home on certain avenues in the western and northern settings of our city, does any one in possession of his mental faculties believe the police would have dared to enter? Not at all.
Our group, being of the underprivileged class, in self-detention oppose any more legislation on patent subject to class enforcement as the present prohibition law bequest it, certain that the underprivileged will be the chief sufferers in the end.
As prohibition was adopted in the South to be enforced only against the darker race, while reserving the use of intervening liqueur to the whites, the Norfolk editor has ground in his opinion to further legislation.

LINCOLN CRUSHES MORGAN ELEVEN IN THRILLING GAME BEFORE LARGE CROWD
By L. J. HILL.
Baltimore. Md.-In a game which proved thrilling from beginning to end the Lincoln "Lions," inspired with the spirit of fight and enthusiasm of Captain Cannon, Tempel the hound "Bears" under their claws, to a score of 19-7 On Moran's campus, October 20.
The game was begun by Morgan kicking to Lincoln with Temple receiving the ball, and who ran to midfield. This was followed by an offensive drive of straight football, with Anderson, Lewis and Harmon featured in carrying the oval, all of which netted the Lions a touchdown for the first five minutes. Harmon missed a try for the extra point. Morgan afterwards received a kick-off, and after an exchange of punts, Clark or Morgan, made a nine pass to Bell who was down on Lincoln's ten-yard line; here the Lions hold the Bears for three consecutive downs Clark however was given a penalty, and since the first yard line which made a first yard line, Morgan eleven. Clark finally carried the ball loser on the fourth down and also scored the extra point by an off-tackle play. The score at this period is 7-2.
Lincoln receives the kickoff, and after an exchange of punts and sermination with the Lions, having the advantage, a spectacular pass was made by LaMar 10 Jackson, which was good for forty yards thus placing the ball on Morrens one yard line from where Lewis

AT THE
APEX BEAU
Chicago, Ill.—Before a throng of 20,000, Coach Abbott's smooth machine of gridders from Tuskegee downed the Bulldogs of Wilberforce University in a thrilling 6-0 game, Saturday, October 26.
The game was played in Chicago's mammoth Solders' field and before as representative a race assemblage as ever gathered to witness an athletic event, each team gave its best for their Ama Matters.
Both teams were about evenly matched in playing ability, with Wibertforce possibly having the edge; but the edge that Luskegeeacked in playing ability was more than made up for in crattiness and "tracks of the toot ball trade."
In Ben Stevenson Luskegee has as creatty a toot ball player as ever domed a pig skin, and Stevenson's craftiness coupled with Harrison's ability to carry the ball made them an unbeatable combination. Luskegee's touch down is due to the strategy of Stevenson in its execution and his perfect ability in eudug and shaking on every Wibertforce tackle.
Luskegee had only two opportunities to score and registered perfectly, Harrison-stevenson pass but failed in the third quarter, when within the shadow of the goal Britton drew upon his team mates a board penalty for holding.
Wilberforce passed up three opportunities to score in the first half, once in the first quarter and twice in the second the Green and Gold Grudders had the ball on the 1-yard line but each time lacked that final punch to push it over. U斯克瑟 took the field buoyed with confidence inspired by the host of best toilowers and the 78-piece band that journeyed all the way to Alabama to witness their great effort.
Walberforce was confident too thousands of Blue and Gold rosters that they had in their "Huzaz" that they 100 were confident of victory.
The day was ideal, the setting perfect and for hours the Middle West had been wending its way to the scene of the great intersectional classic, Partisan colors, pennants and ribbons vied with each other in the warming sun that removed the chill of the lake air.
Tuskegee's famous band was on hand and entertained between halves Its execution of the letters "W. U.," and "I" was beautiful as well as the rendition of the respective Alma Mater songs, "Alma Mater" and "Tuskegee's Song." After the Alma Mater songs Miss Janeette Carruthers, "Miss Tuskegee" of 1929-30 was presented and a hail to her loviness played. The 8th Illinois Regimental Band alternated with the Tuskegee Band, from the Gno side in rendering several numbers.
Judging from expressions heard from the entire representative throng, sentiment is strong for an annual meeting of Tuskegee and Wilberforce in Soldier's Field.

The Pioneer Basketball Club made things pretty hot for Carlton's full force at the latter's court on Saturday, October 26. The Carlton squad of sixteen players was put through a terrific workout in order to come out victors. The final whistle found the teams in a deadlock a 16-16 tie. An extra five-minute proved very exciting, each team scoring one basket, thus tying the score at the period's end. The secon team, McClammy, Lane, Grosvenor, Sutton and Edwards, which held a five point lead at the beginning of the second half was called upon to make an attempt to pull away from the fast and furious Pioneers, during the second extra period.

BY BOB SLATER
"Lives of great men oft remind us, We can make our lives sublime, And departing leave behind us, Footprints on the sand of time." The, great American poet never uttered more fitting words than these to express encouragement and hope to the ambitious. The record and history of Florence Mills most adequately bear out the lines above quoted.
It is not necessary to refer to her accomplishments, in detail as they are too well known, but it is the thought of her wonderful achievements that cling to our memories and will ever be perpetuated. After winning unequaled fame and glory in her native country the U. S. A. she went abroad and repeated her triumphs. Failing health necessitated her returning to America September 2, 1927 will long be remembered by those who witnessed her triumphal return and the hearty welcome accorded net by her many friends who blended their enthusiasm with the members of the Colored Vaudeville Heneen's Association.
Which welcome and reception every one knows were so excellently planned and managed by Bob Slater. Following this blaze of glory, and after reaching such tremendous heights on November 1, 1927, her sun reached the zenith, and the nightfall told the world that Florence Mills had passed on

Addison Carey, one of the ablest of the younger producers, is hard at work putting the finishing touches to what promises to be the best show he has ever produced—a rol-
Henry King's powerful drama of the woman's side of the war, "She Goes To War" willie presented on the same program with "The Devil's Frolic."
Carey's musical comedy will bring back to Harlem a group of the most popular colored musical comedy and vaudeville artists; John Mason, Doris Rheubottom, Gallie de Gaston, Jennie Dancey, Jackie Mabley, Red Rudolph, Jelly Bean Smith, Carey's sixteen Howardettes and other stage celebrities. "She Goes to War" is a stirring talking picture version of the famous novel and war story by Rupert Hughes, one of the world's greatest novelists. It tells the dramatic story of the only woman to reach the front line trenches. For sheer drama and sidespitting comedy, "She Goes to War" stands out as one of the new season's big talking pictures. The cast includes Eleanor Boardman, Alma Rubens, Al St. John, John Holland and Edmond Burns.

This is what the pastor, officers and members of Mother Zion Church are endeavoring to do today—to bring back, to reunite. We have a summer day because during the summer the people take vacations, at which time the work of the church reaches its lowest point. Both attendance and offerings are very small. So we put forth this special effort to arouse and awaken all the people, who are calling upon you to help you reorganize our forces that our work may be carried on effectively and efficiently in the coming months."

Mt. Olivet Baptist Church
Revelation 2:12-13 was the text of Rev. W. P. Hayes, pastor, of Mt. Olivet Baptist Church, Sunday morning, October 27, "And to the angel of the church in Pergamos write: These things saith he which hath the sharp sword with two edges; I know thy works, and where thou dwellest, even where Satan's seat is in front of those hallowed musts, and hast not denied my faith even in those days where in Antias was my faithful martyr who was slain among you, where Satan dwelth."
He declared that in spite of the modest thought of the devil being a myth, Jesus Christ spoke of him as a reality. He also explained that the organization he does within and that Christian should be distinguished by certain marks of conduct and behavior but as a rule those who profess Christianity do, say and live the same as all others. He closed this greatly inspiring message by reminding the church that Jesus members and blesses those who suffer for his sake.
An infant was prayed for. Miss Beatrice Brown presented $50 to the church from the Girl's Culture Club. This was the proceeds from the collection. The two Bible classes met at 1:30 The Philathea class is studying the life of Moses.

WHERE TO GO TO CHURCH
by Philip, the father of Alexander the Great. The text was a part of letter sent by Paul while in prison there. He spoke of the grace of God as being an internal work in the heart, giving light to the underworld, and helping to save him. One cannot reason one's self into the grace of God, but when God draws man, man begin to grow in grace and understanding, on and on and upward to the perfect day. Five people joined church during the day. The pageant, "Gods of Beauty," was given Tuesday ning, October 22, deserved its name for it was beautiful. On November 7, there will be another concert, "Jesphiah and his Daughter."
St. Martin's Chapel
"Vanity" was the subject chosen last Sunday morning by the Rev. John H. Johnson, vicar of St. Martha's Chapel, 122nd street and Lenox Avenue, Boston, where the found in the 8th verse of the 30th chapter of the Book of Proverbs: "Remove far from me Vanity." "There is no better place in the Bible to look for vanity than in the old testament," said the minister beginning the study of the place in the old Testament than in the Book of Proverbs. One of the first warnings of ancient time is the warning against vanity. There is something insidiously destructive about this fault. With the destroys a fellowship and the fraternal feeling of friendship in our relation with others, its influence on the individual is far more detrimental. In other words, snobbishness is more harmful to the sinner than to those who are weary and in a phase that we are hearing in mind this morning. Vanity hurts the m

dividual, crushes him to the ground runs his hopes and leaves him disconsolate.
"In discussing the effect of yantin on the individual, we ask this question—Why do men fail? They fail because they do not conserve, because they believe they can do nothing. They allow vanity to creep in and slowly but surely this insidious influence spreads and kills the ambition. We are reminded of a promising athlete who failed because he disregarded the laws of Health; of a preacher who was runed by his own concept; of a deformity caused by his own selfishness. And these are only a few examples of why nine men out of every ten fail. Vainty tempts them to swerve aside and they yield because they feel that they are just a little better than the average man.
In Paul's letter to the Philippians, he confesses his inability to understand the mysteries of life but in his testimony he writes: "I inwardly to the mark of the pride of the higher calling of God. And this should be our purpose in life, forgetting all vanity and striving for that which is higher and better. With humility, we should aim to keep our eyes on Jesus. Who are you that you should be vain? Horses for the altar were contributed by Timothy Knight in memory of his mother and by Miss Constance Greed in memory of her mother.

Tuesday night, though it rained in torrents up to about 6 o'clock, the pastor and chair members went over to the Walker Memorial Chapel, where they were scheduled for a service, and all were agreeably surprised to find a goodly number of the members of that church and quite a number from N.

There was great enthusiasm in this service, and the leaders and members of the groups the campaign showed that they are doing. Some of the people are doing. Fully as many persons were present to worship with us for the first time, having been invited, and many of them accompanied to the service, as were out on the pastor's Sunday.

MUSICALE FOR BENEFIT COLUMBUS DAY NURSERY AT BAHA'I HALL AN OCCASION
What might be termed the formal opening of the 1929-30 concert season came with the presentation of an imposing array of musical talent by a group of sponsors at the Baha'i Center, 119 West 57th street, on Friday evening, October 25, in interest of the Columbus Hill Day Nursery, located at 224th 63rd street, which cares for some forty-five children every day, thus enabling the others to go out for daily employment.
For this worthy cause, the sponsors, Mesdames A. G. Bechtold, E. P. Roberts, M. V. Boutté, P. M. Murray, Watt Terry and William H. Wortham and Alderman Fred R. Moore and Lester A. Walton, were signally fortunate in securing the voluntary assistance of colored and white artists of the first rank for the program, and of enlisting the sympathetic support of a most brilliant assemblage of music lovers of both races—all audience that taxed the small hall to its utmost limits.
Mrs. Boutté gave largely of her personal effort in arranging details of the program, and Mrs. Terry was treasurer for the committee.
Promptly at nine o'clock, the first artist, little Miss Thomasina Talley, a 16-year old pianist, daughter of Professor Talley of of Fisk University and a sister-to Sonoma Talley Swanston, now a New York pianist, struck the opening chords of the Andante Molto from Grieg's Sonata in E Minor, opus 7, following with the Finale, Molto Allegro. This young girl displayed technical efficiency and finish, and showed a promise of future development of considerable proportions. She is holding a scholarship at the Institute of Musical Art of the Juilliard Musical Foundation, from which institution her sister is an artist graduate.
The second number was a group of songs by Maude Gaudreaux, toprane, who included in her offering the Waltz Song from Gounod's "Romeo and Juliet"; the Rasbach composition, "Trees," and a dainty little trifle, "The Little Damozel" by Novello. Miss Gaudreaux's singing was pleasing, but reached no great heights.
Three delightful dance numbers were given by Evelyn Sheppard and Thelma Brunder, under direction of Vivian Roberts, with Aristine Striggs at the piano. Unfortunately, there was no elevated stage and the young misses had to do their terpsichorean tasks on the floor, level with the audience. Only those in the extreme front had the advantage of a clear view of the graceful gyrations, those in the rear having a view only of their arms and torsos.
The next number introduced Luther King, teor, to a New York audience, and the young man was received with splendid appreciation. His voice is of light lyric quality, flexible in utterance and colorful in quality. He s. I understand, in the city for study, and he displayed an organ well worth cultivating. In some respects his voice reminds one of Roland Hayes, but the resemblance cannot be definitely placed. For one thing, it seems to have more volume, but its future classification depends upon the care and patience which is given to its further development. He sang the Handel number, "Where'er ye walk," "My Lovely Celia" by Lane Wilson, and a song by the English composer, Roger Quilter, "Blue are her eyes." Earlean Houston King was at the piano for his numbers, and barring a bit of undue strenuousness in the Handel number, supported him admirably.
One of the gems of the evening's program was the violin playing of young Gertrude Martin, who played Hubay's wild Hungarian national dance, "Hejre Kati," with a sensuous abandon that stirred the pulsate beat of the most staid and dignified listener. Miss Martin's playing is evolutionary, and each hearing reveals some new beauty of tone-color and nuance creation. Mrs. Talley-Swanston was at the piano.
Another offering that sturred the audience to great enthusiasm was the singing of Betty Sinkford, soprano. This young woman, charming physically and musically well endowed, is from Bluefields, W. Va., and studied at the Institute of Musical Art during the season of 1927-28. In 1928-29, she was a member of the musical faculty at Hampton Institute, with Dr Nathaniel Dett, and now she is back in New York to continue her studies. She sang a song, "J'ai pleure en reve" ("I have went a dream") by Hue, in French, and her diction and pronunciation were a delight. The Frank LaForge composition, "Song of the Open," was interpreted with vivacity and spirit, and the singer was given an ovation. Andrades Lindsay played her accompaniments with her usual meticulous and sympathetic efficiency.
Harriet Morgan, pianist, a young woman of unusual ability, played the Chopin Scherzo in B Minor with fine effect, following with Mendel-sohn's Spinning Song, Brahms' Waltz in A Flat, and a Cyril Scott Etude.
The final offering was a group of Spirituals by Mr King. Friends were demanded from Mr. King, Miss Martin, Miss Sinkford and president of the Nursery, to the Bahai' Center for free use of hall and Mrs Morgan, all of whom graciously responded.
The sponsors expressed appreciation, through Mrs. Ira S. Wile, for a contribution of $50; to the artists for their fine cooperation, and to members of the committee who paid for the printing, so that the entire proceeds might go to the Nursery. Mrs. Boutté introduced Mr. Wile.
By admittence, as stated by the sponsors, the names of three patrons were unfortunately omitted from the list as printed on the programs. They are Mrs. James A. Anderson, Miss Maybelle McAdoo and Mrs. Tempe Burge.
MONARCH SYMPHONY BAND OPENS SEASON OF FREE SUNDAY CONCERTS
Promptly at 3 o'clock, Sunday afternoon, October 27, Lieutenant Fred W. Simpson swung his baton and the musicians comprising Monarch symphonic Band sounded the strains of the "Star Spangled Banner" as the several hundred music lovers who filled the auditorium of P.S. 136 well nigh to capacity rose to their feet and stood reverently until the last strain had sounded.
Without delay, the band then took up the scheduled program, opening with Blankenberg's march, "Loyal-Comrades." Then came

HAPPENINGS IN THE REALM OF MUSIC
the farnious and well-liked Unfinished Symphony in B Minor by Chopin, played with the finesse and clarity which Lieut. Simpsin has developed until his band plays with the effect of a symphonic orchestra.
In a lighter vein were two popular numbers, 'A Tango Argentine, "El Chocoloro" by Villoldo, a favorite with Monarch audiences, and a fox trot, "I've a feeling I'm falling." A vocal number by Miss Thelma P. Byrd, contralto, was next programmed, but the singer had not arrived so the band played its next offering, the Suppe overture, "Morning, Noon and Night in Vienna." The band gave a fine rendition of this number, after which Dr. Lawrence J. Davenport, the ubiquitous and learned master of ceremonies, introduced several of the race candidates for various public offices from the Harlem community to speak briefly to the audience.
Hubert T. Delany, candidate for Congress on the Republican ticket from the 21st District, New York City, and Attorney Francis P. Davers, candidate on the same ticket for the State Assembly from the A. D., spoke briefly in interest of their several candidacies and of the other Republican candidates in Harlem.
Miss Byrd having arrived, she was presented and sang "Joy" by Watts, and an arrangement of "Swanee River" by her accompanist, Miss C. Pearson. Miss Byrd has a voice of fine quality, with resonance, depth and color, and the audience gave her an appreciative reception.
The other vocal offering was by Miss Dayse Regina Harding, soprano, who, as is Miss Byrd, is a soloist in the choir of Abyssinian Baptist Church. Miss Harding, who has been heard before by Monarch audiences, was given an ovation.
Alderman Fred R. Moore, treasurer of the Monarch Band Free Summer Concert Fund, made a brief point, al talk on the importance of race elective representation, and then made an appeal to the people present for contributions to this fund, and also for cash donations in a plate collection to help the band finance its Sunday afternoon recitals, which, during the past two seasons, has been done entirely by the band members without any outside assistance. The liberal response to this appeal brought $42 in a collection. In addition, there were cash contributions in envelopes to the summer concert fund totaling $41.35, of which $2.25 was in envelopes without any identifying name. A list of those who contributed the amount of $39.10 is given below.
Following this, the band resumed its musical program, playing an operatic selection from Gounod's "Romeo and Juliet," heard in their concerts for the first time. It was a distinctive performance. Other numbers were the Spanish Serenade, "La Paloma," by Yradier, and a descriptive fantasia, "Pastimes on the Levee," in which the band members were called upon to exercise their vocalistic talent as well as their instrumental ability. "Auld lang syne" was as usual, the closing number.
The concerts will be given on the last Sunday in each month through to May 25, 1930, the program starting promptly at J o'clock, on the minute, always, with a complete change of program for each recital The publicity committee is composed of Arminus Hayne, chairman; Benjamin B. Covington, Albert Bell, Aubrey M. Brooks, Rutherford N. Jackson, John Brunson, secretary; Alderman Fred R. Moore, treasurer; Dr. Lawrence J. Davenport, master of ceremonies.
The ushers are Seabon Smith, Benjamin Johnson, Richard Jackson, Dennis Armstead, James Ray, James Turner and Joseph Gaynor.
The Monarch Band journeyed down to Asbury Park on Monday, October 28, and played the first annual concert sponsored by the New Jersey Convention Committee of Monmouth Lodge 122 and Pride of Asbury Temple 64, I. B. P. O. E. of W. The program, as printed in this column last week, was played in Roseland Hall, with Counsellor Eugene R. Hayne of Asbury Park as master of ceremonies. Proceeds are to be used in entertaining the state Convention of Elks and Daughters at Asbury Park, June 25 to 27. After the program, the Monarch Melodians played for dancing, with Maggie Hill, Thos C. Andersson and Geo, W. Edwards as floor managers.

DOCK SNELLINGS, BARITONE, GIVES PROGRAM OF SONG AT GRACE CHURCH
It was a scant audience that greeted Dock Snellings, baritone, who has been referred to as "The Singing Postman" by cesson of the fact that he has been a post office employee for the past fifteen years, when he appeared in recital Sunday afternoon, October 27, at Grace Congregational Church of Harlem, the Rev. Dr A. C. Garner, pastor.
Mr. Snellings appeared under management of E. Aldama Jackson, with Carl Diton as his accompanist, but even this notable combination did not suffice to attract an audience of any proportions.
The singer was heralded by an imposing array of press comments of the most laudatory character, and a brief biographical sketch carried the information that he had studied in New York with "Enrico Rosat, only teacher" of Gigli and Volpi, Metropolitan opera tenors, and that he had previously studied with noted teachers on the Pacific Coast, from whence he had come to the East for further development.
His stage bearing is that of a polished and dignified exponent of the vocal art, his utterance indicates that he has made a serious and earnest study of singing, and his interpretation indicates a cultured understanding. But this reviewer is unable to subscribe to the unrestrained and fulsome praise which has been accorded Mr. Snellings by some of the metropolitan reviewers, nor can he understand why, if these comments were justified, there appeared to be so little basis for them in the singer's offering on this occasion.
The voice has power and strength, but it lacks resonance, color and music—it has sweetness, if we are to take his singing Sunday afternoon as a criterion. It may be that another hearing will bring a different judgment, but that remains to be seen.
The voice has power and strength, but it lacks resonance, color and music—it has little sweetness, if we are to take his singing Sunday afternoon as a criterion. It may be that another hearing will bring a different judgment, but that remains to be seen.
The program included compositions by Giordani, Handel, Schumann, Bemberg Hue, Doda, Homer, Rachmaninoff, Richardson, Aylward, Wilson, and Spirituals by Burleigh and by the singer himself.

alities of her pupils. The result is that the Brunson pupils' recitals are of keen musical interest, and they are always given on the second Friday of each October.
The coster, of Miss Brunson's pupils totals exactly one hundred, and there are eleven more listed who are pupils of Irene Cheeseman, a pupil teacher. Just how the teacher takes care of so many pupils is a puzzle to the writer, but judging from the results none suffer from neglect.
Honor pupils for 1929 are listed as follows:
Children's Music Catechism Class—Sallie C Lipscomb, Juanita Boyer, Theresa Curdoxier, Lorraine Editor
Music Catechism Class—Frances Herbert, Alivia Pleasants, Samuel Price, Dorothy Owen, Dorothy Farrar, Lorraine Jackson
Adult Catechism Class—Mabie Peterkin, Maria Tilden, Anne I. Tate, Johanna Smith, Azala B. Jones, Thomas Brown, Marva Whitter
Theory Class—Beulah Scott, Emma Mitchell, Thelma Mills, Edith E. Wessels Mayanna Carrington, Genevieve Mitchell.
The guest artist for the recital was Miss Doris Trotman, soprano soloist in St. James Presbyterian Church choir, who sang three groups, with Miss Brunson at priests, with honor pupils and contestants, or awarded by Miss Minnie Brown, or awarded by St Mark's M. E. Church choir.
Thirty-four pupils gave numbers on the program.
ACTIVITIES AMONG UNION MUSICIANS
ACTIVITIES AMONG UNION MUSICIANS
BY PERCIVAL OUTRAM
In a local paper last week appeared a full page advertisement, the top of which was the figure of a Harp, with a "Robot," or mechanical man clucking at the rings. The "Harp" and "Robot" copied one-third of the page.
This "ad" has been the cause of such comment among musicians, and the criticism of the federation of Musicians in protesting the encoaching of mechanical devices to the possible extinction of human players.
cerely looking at the picture and
sinking some musical house was
detecting a harp for sale. There
was nothing at the top of the page
to catch the eye or to show that
an appeal was being made to the
public to forswear canned music
and demand the return of the le-
timate orchestra.
Only at the extreme bottom of
the page did a line, "Federation of
Musicians" appear footing the
same matter, indicating the
source of the "ad".
The lookers complain why not
have used me half of the space in
two successive classes, and why did
not the public man it any have
some other reading matter directing
attention to the "ad"? Some misgiving think that the
masses do not read musical magazines,
and several worth-while articles,
published in magazines,
would have accomplished more
good than they also found them way

Very Cordially Invites the Public to Attend
A MUSICAL PROGRAM
And Hear a Talk by The Hon. JUDGE CUNNINGHAM
SUNDAY EVENING, NOV. 10, at 8.30 P. M.
At St. Mark's Hall, 57 West 138th St., N. Y. C.

Alarm is being registered, the analyzers proclaim, by the Federation of Musicians for the safety of Local 802, as by the "Journal" published last month, there was an exceedingly large number of musicians suspended from membership for "non-payment of dues," and under the heading, "New Members," the length of the list was not imposing.
The continuous dropping of members, it is alleged, would threaten the foundation of Local 802, and this fact has stirred the union officials to a more spirited action.
Don David, the irrepressible, as he has oftimes ben called in this column, after a spell of enforced quiescence, has blossomed out in a field somewhat foreign to him—the dance orchestra. Most musicians will recall that David for many years confined himself to movie theatres, of which there is not one in Harlem hiring colored musicians in which David has not directed an orchestra. And there were many theatres in the East and West sides in Harlem in which he was the only colored man in the orchestra.
Trouble with the union; that was overcome; then the mechanical spectre hedged him, like others, from the theatres.
Now, David is directing an orchestra in the 40's, off Broadway, in a dancing academy; has been on the job about three weeks and everybody seems satisfied.
We wonder how many race musicians, fully, qualified, or who could, with a little application, qualify, noticed the call sent out by Prof. Hollis Dana, head of the Department of Musical Education of the New York University School of Education? Dr. Dana declares: "This demand is for trained teachers and music supervisors in the public schools. More and more, in progressive cities and states, music is ceasing to be a subject to be taught by musically untrained teachers. It is becoming a major subject, taking its place with mathematics, etc., and so school boards are demanding just as thorough a training in the teaching of their subject as other members of the school faculty."
Dr. Dana further discloses in his statement that there are from one to eight music instructors in high schools; that "at it is not unusual to hear of experienced teachers earning from $2,000 to $6,000 for nine or ten months work," and that a graduate this year obtained a position 'aggregating $8,000. And the professor states that only a few of the outstanding concert artist can show a larger net income at the end of the year.
Dr. Dana says that t. demand for music teachers holding a college or university degree is growing so fast that now there are many more positions than applicants, and that N. Y. University has the largest number of students in the country, yet each year it receives more calls for directors holding a degree than it has graduates.
Nowadays there are instrumental classes in piano and all of the orchestral instruments, as well as singing, and courses in theory, appreciation and history. "The whole idea of the place music has in education has changed" continued the professor; "in a great number of high schools it is a daily subject. They have hand, symphony, orchestras and choruses."
Deacon Johnson, it is reported has instituted proceedings against William C ("Bill") Elkins, the singing director and banister.
Deacon alleges that "Bill," who was working one of the "Pioneer's" jobs Saturday night, October 26, sulked and refused to properly entertain the guests. Deacon personally was not on the job, but word got back to him of Elkins' conduct, and in fact, it is purported that a letter was sent the "Pioneer" by the giver of the dance, complaining of the entertainment offered. Deacon is a stickler and rightly so-lor service, and hence the charge was filed against "Bill" in Local 802.

Marking a real event in screen history, "Married in Hollywood" will prove a delightful surprise to music lovers, and film fans at its first local showing, at the New Douglas Theatre, this Saturday, Sunday and Monday, November 2, 3 and 4.

Never a dull moment checks the even flow of the story, which is adorned with marvelous dancing, beautiful singing, thrilling adventure and gorgeous settings.

From the number of bags that are exchanged through error, during the detraining of passengers, in the course of a year at all large railroad terminals, it seems that this is a railroad and Pullman service defect which needs to be corrected; and the sooner the correction made the better it will be for all concerned.
A case in point:
The passenger, detraining at the Grand Central Station, had an important engagement with the head of his business firm. In the bag he carried were papers which were very necessary to the conference. The passenger arrived at six o'clock in the evening; the appointment was for seven o'clock, exactly an hour later. But it was 9 o'clock before the traveller could transact his business, all because another man, a fellow passenger got his bag.
This occurred when one of the passengers from the Pullman car, in which the business man also rods, got the business man's bag by mistake, and didn't discover the error until he had arrived at his home in Newark, N. J. It took two hours for the return of the bag.
That is a typical and frequent occurrence at all large railroad terminals. For errors of this sort the porter blames the redcap, the redcap faults the passenger, and the passenger reproaches both the redcap and the porter.
In order to obviate just such errors as these, the Pullman company has baggage identification tags, which porters are instructed to distribute to their passengers. But even this system doesn't prevent these baggage mistakes.
As this correspondent views the matter, it is a problem, the solution of which rests entirely between the porters and the redcaps. And as a step toward grappling with the problem in this district, this correspondent suggests that a meeting be called between the porter members of Local Committee C and Chief James Williams and his captains, of the Grand Central Terminal, to see if these errors cannot be curtailed to the minimum, even if they cannot be entirely obviated. Otherwise, between the redcaps and the porters someone is going to be affected by these constant complaints. And, as every redcap and every porter knows, that someone is not going to be the railroads nor is it going to be the Pullman Company.
Safety First and the Golden Rule

One is dependable man who practices the principles and growth of the lives of others.

A long ago, there was a Man gave to all the greatest illustrations Only Son to die for the sins of the strongest link in the chain of life, for the Golden Rule and Safety First.
Now the principles of Safety be employed, cannot be put in active character, courtesy and intelligence asteristics of a real man or woman realized more fully and practiced there will be less sorrow, certainly.

(Formerly a school teacher in Bertie County, N. C., but at present a Pullman porter in the P. T. District.)
In order to live a successful life along the lines of the golden Rule, it is very essential to apply to that life the practice of Safety First.
Safety First and the Golden Rule go hand in hand. One is not strict to the fullest extent without the other. In life it takes both elements from the practice of Safety First, and Safety First draws its elements of good actions and noble achievements from that of the Golden Rule. One is dependable upon the other. The man or woman who practices the principles of the two is promoting the length and growth of the lives of others as well as that of his or her own life.
The Golden Rule, as every school child is taught, consists of doing unto others as you would have done unto you; treating everybody right with whom you come into contact; making friendships by merits or good deeds.
Safety First consists of protecting yourself and others against all accidents, that may lie in your power to prevent. The man who pays no attention to the life and condition of his neighbor, but lives only to protect andromote his own, that man is living on grounds of sinkhole sand, under which lie the elements of immorality and decimation.
On the other hand, the man who lives for others, the man who lives in such a self-forgetful way that even when he kneels in pray, his prayers are for others, that man is following in the footsteps of the great and noble. He is making his life sublime on the surface of the tands of time.
A long ago, there was a Man of the Kingdom of Heaven who gave to all the greatest illustration of those precepts by giving Up His Only Son to die for the sins of humanity. By that example, the strongest link in the chain of life, to which are connected the principles in the Golden Rule and Safety First, was forged.
Now the principles of Safety First and the Golden Rule cannot be employed, cannot be put in actions to any successful extent, without character, courtesy and intelligence. These are the fundamental characteristics of a real man or woman. And when these qualifications are realized more fully and practiced more religiously in our daily lives, there will be less sorrow, certainly, fewer regrets, among all mankind.
Do right and leave wrong alons, practice the doctrines of those two worthy mottoes of protection and unselfish living, Safety First and the Golden Rule. To him who earnestly tries there will come peace, health, prosperity and happiness.
So friends and fellowworkers let us join hands and work together in the great drive for the safety and contentment of mankind.

We are now mourning the loss of two of our staunche and faithful brothers, T. M. Hawkins and G. W. Ford, who crossed the narrow channel of life on October 23.
Mr. Hawkins entered the service October 17, 1892, and operated between New York and Pinehurst N. C. for 20 years and during his later years between New York and Atlantic City. During many years of service and contact with the public he created an atmosphere that made each one appreciate the "Big Man" that was included in his large frame, Shakespeare in his "Julius Caesar," with Mark Anthony speaking "The

G W. Ford entered the service October 25, 1925, and operated between New York and Chicago. No doubt, if it were convenient, even the railroad employees, along with the many passengers and others with whom he came in contact, would be at the funeral to make personal expression of their sympathy with the bereaved family, telling all that it is our loss and Heaven's gain.
A deal of enthusiasm is being expressed relative to the coming convention of the P P B A of A. No doubt each porter is looking forward to a reduction of the present premium on our insurance and let us all hope that it will come. Yet in the face of that, there are other things under consideration that should not be overlooked. It is true that the plan to reduce part of the overhead expense through having election once every two years. That itself will go a long way toward strengthening the organization reserve, but a very short way toward decreasing the premium. At the present time the organization has on hand approximately $20,000 having operated seven years with an expense of more than $10,000,000. It is high, but our mortality expenses that to cut down on the present premium with the present expense, would be a tragedy to the organization. That is our expense would be higher than our income. Let us charge each of our representatives to make a thorough investigation into the full operation of the organization and see if it can be reduced under the present circumstances.

"About fifty years ago," says Mr. Lewis G. O'Shields, of Porterville, Ala. "my mother gave me the first dose of Black-Draught, and I have taken it ever since, when I needed a medicine for constipation. I have used this remedy all my married life, in raising my children. "I have used Black-Draught frequently for heartburn, as I have had spells of this kind, off and on, for years. This follows indigestion, and indigestion comes close on constipation. I have learned that way to head off trouble is to begin taking Black-Draught in time. It relieves me of dizziness, tightness in the chest and backache.
"By getting rid of impurities, Black-Draught helps to keep the system in good order. I always keep it in the home, and have recommended it to many people, in my time. I always say a good word for a good medicine." Sold by all druggists.

How to Reduce Varicose Veins
Rub Gently and Upward Toward the Heart as Blood in Veins Flows That Way
Many people have become despondent 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.

good offense in the third period and during the last three minutes of play, J. Bethea intercepted a gain on his teams twenty-yard line and ran eighty-two yards, for a touchdown. W. Covington received a lateral pass and put over the extra point, Williston made many first downs, Laurinburg made a few. Due to injuries received in the J. C. Smith-Laurinburg game, many of the boys especially in the backfield were unable to perform efficiently. The write up about the J. C. Smith-Laurinburg game was partially untrue. Coach Thomas sent his second stringers in to begin the game, but they were unable to score, then he sent in six varsity men in the second period. They made thirteen points in this period. At the beginning of the third period, varsity coach Richon Colman left guard. All American left guard) etc came to the enemy. The varsity made four touchdowns and one extra point. During the fourth period, Smith made one touchdown. Then came the third stringers, able, and scrimbs with only five minutes to play.
Allendale, S. C.—Allendale County, the baby county in the Palmetto State, is making progress along the lines of education among the Negroes.

There are four Rosemald schools now in the county and plans are in the making to build some more besides a good many more county schools. The Negro has proven to the white people of the State that education to them is not a curse, but rather, a blessing and the white race is opening up their hearts as never before.

"Few things are impossible to Diligence and skill"
NOWHERE in the Bell System does this quotation from Dr. Johnson appear. And yet it describes most aptly the belief and creed of the Bell System.
It was not luck which enabled the struggling little telephone industry to weather the storms of the early 80's. Nor was it by chance that telephone engineers made steady improvements in the instrument itself; that a way was found to put telephone wires underground; that a loading colli was perfected which would "step up" the human voice and enable it to travel thousands of miles without fading into nothing; that trans-oceanic speech was perfected; that with many other improvements the service has continued to grow and become of still greater value to all users.
Such advances are possible only through diligence and skill—that winning combination which triumphs over "the impossible."

$1,000,000 Suit Filed By Asbury Park Justice Peace
Ashbury·Park, N. J.-Through his attorneys, Robert Queen of Trenton, N. J., and E. Louis Moore of Indianapolis, representing also the local N. A. A. C. P., Amos A. Williamson, justice of the peace, residing here, has filed suit for $1,000,000 against the Ashbury Park Bathing Co.; owned and operated by Edward T. Mitchell, a multimillionaire, because of an assault committed' upon Williamson by employees of Mitchell on August 25, 1929.
Williamson charges that when he was walking on the beach front which lay between a chain of hotels leased by Mitchell and the ocean he was set upon by Mitchell's life 'guards', assaulted and then thrown bodily into deep water in the ocean, and that repeated attempts were made to drown him, charging as a reason that Mitchell had given orders that no Negro be allowed upon that particular stretch of beach.
The action was filed in the Monmouth County Circuit Court at J. A. Two other suits are pending against Mitchell and the City of Asbury Park—one an injunction by Dr. John H. Hayes, dentist, against interfering with civil rights of the Negro, and another by Dr. William J. Parks, who with his children, were also assaulted by the life guards on August 25.

"Harlem will reap a political harvest of public improvement, city position$ and economic development just as the people of Chicago's South Side have done, when the voters shake off the fetters of the Republican party and line up with the Democrats, the dominant party in this city," declared William H. Austin, Democratic candidate for alderman of the "Twenty-first district, in an interview yesterday.
"Victory is in the air for Mr. Austin." interrupted Dr. Dudson J. Oliver, his campaign committee chairman, who predicted a majority of 2,000 votes and a complete defeat of the present incumbent, Joan Clifford Hawkins, Republican Following the expression of optimism

"We Born the Right Woman!"
THE NEW YORK AGE
Dr. ALONZO deG. SMITH
A mother brought a toddler to my office for treatment, Johnny (not his real name) was much interested in spinning the seat of a revolving stool, exploring my instrument cabinet and trash basket, turning on the gas, etc. He seemed to get into some new situation every minute or two, as a result of which the mother as often shouted:
To which Johnny paid little attention. He never minds, said the mother. How can I make him obey me every time I speak? Why should he obey you every time you speak, said I. Because I'm his mother, said Mrs. C.
This attitude is typical of that of many parents. Children should obey, they think, and say because—well, because of what? Because mother knows best. Does mother know best and what is best? In the instance cited, Mrs. C. did not demonstrate that she knew the best. She did not know that Johnny's habit of getting into things was a normal, healthy sign of his abundance of physical energy; he had to be active; that was his and all youngsters characteristic. Secondly, curiosity and desire to manipulate objects is the means by which all children learn about their surroundings. Mother did not know best.
From another point of view, too this mother did not know best. Her type of commands were not likely to develop in the toddler a sense of reasonableness for doing the thing she would have done. There are many ways to command a child. There is the "do" type—johnny do your lessons! The "don't" type—johnny dou't touch that stool. The "threat" type—johnny, if you don't come here mother will spank you.
This is a combination command. Incidentally, I might say that Mrs. C. did not spank Johnny and of course he continued his explorations. Sometimes a command is accompanied with a slap, on the hand. This may hurt or frighten the child for the time being, but it does not deter him from wanting to perform the forbidden act again. He may not repeat the act; he may be conditioned to fear to do so because of his previous experience. But the wish to do so may persist. Moreover he may develop a resentment, and if the instance is severe enough a hatred or a permissive, Mr. Austin asserted that a simple analysis of the success of Chicago's Negro district will show how Harlemites can achieve the same.
"Chicago is controlled by 'the Republicans,' he said, "and the Negroes are sure of getting their share of the pie because they always help the cook. Follow their lead and elect a man who is within the councils of the Democratic party, the ruling group in this city." Mr. Austin pointed to his record of service in the 2012 M.C.A. where he was thousand of dollars for boys' welfare work, and in the Association of Trade and Commerce. He pledged himself to greater service as an alderman and declared he will not sit idle and powerless - Advt

OBEDIENCE
Johnny stop that!
nent 'feeling that he has been mistreated. Then there is the explanatory command—Johnny, don't turn that because you might hurt yourself. Here we give a command plus a reason. Now, Johnny may still repeat the act, not because he thinks in terms of being disobedient but maybe because he wishes to find out for himself if he will get hurt. Obedience is necessary. But it need never be instantaneous, except in emergencies. These should be clearly defined from other situations. A sharp elevated voice for emergencies, let us say; and a soft, calm, clearly spoken command with reasons for ordinary situations. A child who is made to obey every command is hampered in his individual development, and may become an indiscrive dependent adult, or may go to the other extreme of defying established customs of law and order.
