President Mordecai Johnson's Plan To Make 'Education' Howard's First Object Said To Displease the Alumni
Graduate Body Wants to Emphasize Efforts on Football Field By Susidizing Player Stars, But School Head Objects

Washington, D. C.—The Alumni of Howard University is opposed to their president's athletic policy. News stories sent out from this city, and not yet denied, charge that the president is determined to "subsidize" an A-1 educational plant.
Washington, D. C.—The Alumni of Howard University is opposed to their president's athletic policy. News stories sent out from this city, and not yet denied, charge that the president is determined to "subsidize" an A-1 educational plant.
That the old grads want "subsidized football," is the rabble the Miller the most deferential respect understanding of the situation; and Yet, nevertheless, as a group of u whether Howard shall be an educational institution or a football factory is the paramount question answering the Dean's question, withudent Johnson and the Howard grads of yesteryear.
Such at least is the impress left on the minds of many Negroes who never went to college, and who never will go, by accounts of particularly so since Howard's Alumni reaction to a bum Howard football affairs are made public by football team, printed in colored constant write-ups in the public new-papers of the last three weeks prints.
To the masses it seems that
The Hero Worshipper.
The story has to 'do with the "ero worshipper" type of Afric who knows readin', writin', 'ritimetic—whose number is legion; mass group which has to be led by the graduates of Howard, and of other institutions of higher learning.
Any one of the group can tell where Howard is; that it has its first race president; knows Howard's founder was a noble, Christian soldier with one arm, but is likely to answer Sglisbury or Lilbera, if asked the location of Morehouse or Meharry.
To this large group Howard connotes the due assistance of the Federal Government to a rising race; and though the University is not Federalized, in the hearts and consciousness of this type it is "nationalized."
Whether or not it may impress Howard's Alumni, it is interesting to record the reactions of the mass Afric to their not denied intent to fight President Johnson's determination to make football incidental.
To quote an elderly lady in Boston: "Does they (alumni) think the Gustmint's going to keep on giving money to educate the culldid children to have 'em busting up one another rompin' round like a pastel o' wild hoses? They'sools if they does. If the younguns want to romp and 'rastle,' let em do it when they lessons is done. They goes to learnin', not rompin!"
A Great Institution.
A New Yorker calls to attention the fact that during the 20-odd years it was without football Columbia grew to be the biggest educational plant in America. "Every summer," he continued, "my girls have the house full of young women who come from Washington and other places to take courses in Columbia's summer classes. It seems that football may be good to turn up the students; but Columbia has a very great educational institution, even though it has not yet developed a winner during the last four or five years that football has even resumed as a collegiate athlete feature." "If he concluded, 'football is subsidized at Columbia, then took many a year to first 'subsidized the institution.'" Most of these mother-wait fellows were himself not a high school graduate, who "runs as well as trades," muted Chief Justice 'Taft who recently opined that more time is given to winning an athlete UTEER in College than to the achievement of the highest level to work. A Phi Beta Kappa fraternity at Pres. Johnson is of abolishing favors to

Miller the most deferential respect. Yet, nevertheless, as a group of us sat in an automobile in front of the Miller home one afternoon three, years ago a Howard alumnus, answering the Dean's question why he didn't attend alumni meetings, said "the alumni wastes too much time raising hell about nothing."
And this impression is becoming general outside of Howard circles—particularly so since Howard's football affairs are made public by constant write-ups in the public prints.
To the masses it seems that Howard is in process of great development in the upper stages, and therefore more than ever reasonably demands the support of all, support of things basic.
There is a crying need for trained Afric preachers, we are authoritatively told. To meet this need the president and trustees of Howard University have begun a campaign to raise $2,000,000 dollar endowment for the School of Religion, the purpose being to bring this school up to Howard University standards.
This is compelled to approve of the bulk of Negroes, because the Church is the one place where the Afric is substantially organized, regardless of how so many of us moderns disagree with the Afric church theory and practice.
Mr. Louis Lautier, Washington correspondent, tells in a recent issue of the Baltimore Afro American how Howard's president, one removed, and its erstwhile field secretary, "scouted" Negro schools and colleges for football material to make Howard University supreme on the gridiron. The price paid has been too great. What the public seems to demand now is that the president lead in the making of a university and that Field Secretary. Olden keep busy hustling up that Two Million Dollar endowment. They don't think that Congress or the Congregational Church will appropriate money to maintain football scouts and training tables. These, they hold, can well await a far more convenient season:
Nor do they believe it would help the university the least bit should the Alumni assume the financial responsibility of a "winner" at football.
Yonkers' Wife Slayer Gets 20 Years to Life
Yonkers' Wife Slayer Gets 20 Years to Life
Yonkers, N. Y.—Having pleaded guilty to second degree murder, following the stabbing to death on October 1 of his wife, Lola Trent, when he found her on the street with Lenwood Butler of 135 Linden street, Stephen Trent of 88 Nepperhan avenue was sentenced by County Judge Frederick P. Close, on October 31, to Sing Sing for from 20 years to life.
Trent had accused his wife of indiscretions with Butler, and when she left home on a professed errand followed and saw her meet Butler. As he neared the couple his wife saw him and tried to get away from Butler, but Trent overtook her and, after a brief argument, drew a pocket knife and stabbed her several times. Her screams brought policemen, who called an ambulance, taking her to the hospital. She died shortly afterwards, but identified her husband as her slayer.
Butler was arrested with Trent as a maternal witness, but was quickly released.

Patrolman C. Williams Nabs Two Pickpockets
Saturday afternoon, November 2, just as the crowd of out-of-town visitors for the Lincoln-Hampton football game were passing through Harlem, Patrolman Charles Williams, Shield No. 11976, of the 32nd Precinct, nabbed two pick-pockets with long police records, who had robbed visitors.
He arrested William Smith, 26 years of age, of 2460 Seventh avenue, after a chase, at 134th street and Eighth avenue, on complaint of William Mackason that Smith had taken his pocketbook, containing $1,600.
A short time later he arrested John Harris, 23 years of age, of 200 West 142nd street, on complaint of William Stauffer of 2472 Eighth avenue, who charged Harris with taking his pocketbook and then jumping aboard a street car at 134th street and 8th avenue, going north. After capturing Smith he ran to the car and captured Harris.
Smith has a long record in Washington, D. C., and Baltimore. He had been arrested by New York detectives before on charges against him in Washington.

Dr. Weatherby Back At Greensboro Church
Greensboro, N. C.-Dr. R. T. Weatherby was returned to the pastorate of St. Matthew's Methodist Episcopal church for another year, the reading of the appointments at the closing session of the annual conference in Winston-Salem revealed.
Bishop Charles L. Mead, of Denver, Colo., presided at the 71st annual session of the North Carolina conference.
Seventeen years ago Dr. Weatherby became pastor of St. Matthew's. He served six years. Five years ago he was returned to the pastorate of that church. He is now entering the sixth year of his second pastorate there and the 12th year of his entire pastorate at St. Matthew's. Much gratification because of his return has been expressed. Under his leadership fine progress in various spheres of activity has been witnessed, it is said.

Bright, secretary, was for twenty years agency director for several large colored insurance companies. Other officers are Mrs. F. R Ish, vice president; W. E. Watson, medical director; C. C. Neal, treasurer; T. W. Sutton, W. E. Parker, M. E. Griffith, board members.
Policy holders will be hospitalized in the Links Hospital, and are furnished nurse service and physician's care. This service is limited to Pine Bluff at present, but will be extended throughout the state later.

Walker Carries North Harlem
The voters of Harlem went to the polls on Tuesday, November 5, and reaffirmed their loyalty to the principle of elective representation by reelecting Fred R. Moore and John Clifford Hawkins to the Board of Aldermen of New York City from the 19th and 21st Alder manic Districts, respectively; and by electing Francis E. Rivers and Lamar Perkins to the State Assembly, from the 19th and 21st Assembly Districts, respectively.
The only flaw in the day's results was the defeat of the race candidate for Congress, Hubert T. Delany, who lost by about 13,000 votes. The returns show that Mr. Delany had a substantial majority in the districts which cover Harlem proper, but his lead in these districts was not sufficient to overcome his Democratic opponent's large plurality in the 23rd A. D., in which the whites are overwhelmingly in the majority. Gavagan received in this district a majority of more than 13,000, which indicates that Delany had a lead of about one thousand votes in the parts of the other four Assembly Districts, the 13th, 19th, 21st and 22nd, which with the 23rd, comprise the 21st Congressional District of New York.
en him in the 13th, 19th, 21st and 22nd districts. He ran far ahead of his ticket.
The result in these districts follow:
13th A. D., Walker, 8785; La Guardia, 3824—4,961 majority.
19th A. D., Walker, 5720; La Guardia, 5193.—527 majority.
21st A. D., Walker, 7022; La Guardia, 5693.—1,329 majority.
22nd A. D., Walker, 9087; La Guardia, 4464.—4,623 majority.
The largest Negro vote is in the 19th and 21st Assembly Districts, and a part of the 13th.
Although Delany was defeated he made a most spirited and creditable race and was given whole-hearted support in the colored districts. Many white Republicans cast their ballot for him. Mr. Delany carried all the lower Harlem districts, and ran ahead of LaGuardia in the 23rd, the only district he lost.
Mayor James J. Walker was re-elected by the largest majority ever given in a mayoralty election in New York City. He defeated Congressman Fiorello H. LaGuardia, Republican candidate, by 497,165 votes, the latter receiving 368,384 as against 865,549 for Walker.
The surprise in this balloting lay in the exceptional and unusual vote given Norman Thomas, the Socialist candidate, who polled 174,931 votes. The Square Deal party, headed by Richard E. Enright, received only 5,956 votes.
The other important Republican victory was that of Borough President George U. Harvey, who was victorious in Queens County over his Democratic opponent, Edward E. Cox, by a vote of 143,219 to 110,659, a majority of 26,560.
Recapitulation of Votes.
The votes by district were as follows:
19th Assembly District—Rivers 6109, Isaacs 4601, a majority of 1508.
19th Aldermanic District—Moore, 8266; Kelly, 4736, a majority of 3530.
21st Assembly District—Perkins, 6333, Tolk, 5126, a majority of 1207.
21st Aldermanic District—Hawkins, 5234; Austin, 4947; Warner 944. A majority for Hawkins of 288.
In the 21st Congressional District, Hubert T. Delany conceded the election of Joseph Gavagan, his Democratic opponent at 10 o'clock on Tuesday night. The vote at that time was Gavagan 40,046 and Delany 27,261, a majority of 12,312.
Mayor Walker Carried North Harlem.
Mayor Walker's plurality among the colored voters of Harlem was attested by the large vote giv-

Tammany workers, at the instance of Martin J. Healy, leader of the 19th Assembly District, did all in their power to obstruct voting in the colored districts. At several polling places voting machines were found out of order and voters held up for hours. White gangsters, wearing Democratic badges, pushed and crowded citizens.
Public School 89, 135th street and Lenox avenue, was the scene of many disturbances due to tactics of Democrats. Voter after voter was challenged by lieutenants of Healy, which was done to retard voting and discourage hundreds standing in line. Jack Johnson, ex-heavyweight champion, was conspicuous in his efforts to carry out the wishes of the Democratic district leader. The police put a stop to his activities.
Compliments are being heard on every hand regarding the fine work done by Police Captain Bracken and his officers of the 32nd Precinct, who throughout the day handled numerous delicate situations. Capt. Bracken was impartial and fair-minded at all times.
On the lower end of the 19th A. D., Capt. Wall was also active in seeing that all parties got a square deal.

FRATERNAL
The Week of November 9 ASTROLOGICALLY CONSIDERED
BY THEARCHER
It seems that the best birthdate of the week is the 11th. The birthyear will certainly bring some advance in the employment and in business to every one borg on this date. The changes that come will be really worth while. The people born on this date should use these hours on the 11th and try to accomplish some worth while purpose in these hours: 9:28 a.m. to 11 a.m.; 3 p.m. to 5 p.m.; and the night of the 11th between 11 p.m. and 1 a.m. This is an opportunity to try to get ahead and prove that it is possible to do anything at the right time through Astrology. The astrology of this week do not take Astrology very seriously, but it is not as worthless as they think. There is much difference between Astrology and fortune telling, and since most people consider Astrology fortune telling they have not taken Astrology seriously. The really sincere Astrologist renders a service to others that is beyond price. The people with birthdates in the rest of the week will find many changes and removals in the birth-years. The 9th is a birthdate that will bring a need of much patience and care in dealing with the employer. The friendship of the opposite sex will be the one bright spot in the birthyear, for, through the opposite sex will come the help and faith that will be really needed. The 10th improves quiet a bit, and does not offer much worry through the employment. There seems to an indication of ill health among those around the people of this day. Some unusual events will mark the birthyear.
The 12th will bring some change in the family ties during the new birth-year, and it is not adviable for people of this date to make any sudden changes or removals. The 13th promises, financial gain for the birthyear, and some unexpected event will mark the year. Family changes are indicated for many. Patience and good judgment will help to accomplish some worth while things. The 14th brings some changes that will prove worth while in the birth-year. There is an indication that the affairs of the opposite sex will require careful thought, and new friendships among the opposite sex will not turn out as expected. The 15th will bring much spiritual development and growth in the birth-year, for the affairs will not bring as much gain and success as the people of this date would like. Old plans and the old friendships will turn out best

Late Lewis H. Latimer, Electrical Inventor, Is Paid Tribute At The 'Light's Golden Jubilee' Program
Only Colored Member Edison Pioneers; Two Surviving Daughters Are Special Guests of Pioneers at Edison Celebration Menlo, N. J.—One of the interesting features in connection with the recent "Light's Golden Jubilee," celebrating the 50th anniversary of Thomas A. Edison's invention of the electric light, was the presence of two daughters of the late Lewis Howard Latimore, of Flushing, Long Island, the only colored member of the Edison Pioneers, the group of workers who were associated with Edison in the development of his electrical inventions.
The two young women, Mrs. terald I. Norman and Miss Louise Lutmer, of 137-02 Juniper avenue, Huang, were extended an invitation to attend the celebration of the "Pioneers," of which their father was one of the founders, and they were shown many special certificates by the Edison officials. The exercises were held in collaboration with those held at Dearborn, Mich., where Mr. Edison took personal part in the program, in association with President Hoover, Henry Ford, the automobile manufacturer, and many other distinguished citizens.
A: Distinguished Inventor.
Mr Lacmer was a distinguished electrical inventor, having perfected a method of making carbon-filaments for the Maxim electric inundecent lamp, or which he secured patents. He had several other electrical inventions to this credit, and was held in high esteem by Mr. Edison, Hiram S. Maxim and the other eminent inventors with whom he worked.
At the celebration here, a special tribute to his memory was delivered by Mr. Wardlaw, secretary of the Edison Pioneers, of 40 West 40th street, New York City, and placed in the official records of that organization Mr. Wardlaw, after telling of Mr. Latimer's connection with Mr. Maxim in the United States Electric Lighting Co. Bridgeport, Conn., and his keen perception of the possibilities of the electric light and kindred industries," spoke in part as alloy
Installed Light Plants
He assisted in installing some of the first "Maxim" incandescent electric light plants in New York City, Philadelphia, and Canada for the United States Electric Light Company, and supervised the production of the carbon filaments employed there, such as the Equatorial Building, Fiske and Hateh, Casswell & Massey's, and the United League Club of New York City, well as the offices of the Philadelphia Leider in Philadelphia. In the autumn of 1881, Mr. Camer was sent to London, England, to establish an incandescent lamp department for the Maxim-Western Electric Light Company. In 1882—3, he was employed by the Olstead Electric Lighting Company of Brooklyn, New York, and then by the Acme Electric Light Company of New York City.
With Edison in 1884.
1884 he became associated with the Engineering Department of the Edison Electric Company at 51st avenue, New York City, but in 1890 was transferred to the local department, where he remained until the formation of the Board of Patent Control in 1896 on the General Electric and Westinghouse Companies, becoming its chief draughtsman, a position he held until the abolition of this Board in 1911, when he became as-

Only Colored Pioneer.
"He was of the colored race, the only one in our organization and was one of those to respond to the initial call that led to the formation of the Edison Pioneers, January 24, 1919. Broad-mindedness, versatility in the accomplishment or things, intellectual and cultural, a linguist, a devoted husband and father, all were characteristic of him, and his genial presence will be missed from our gatherings.
"He is survived by two daughters, Mrs. Gerald F. Norman and Miss Louise N. Latimer of Flushim, Long Island, N. Y."

Paul E. Baker Declares That Harlem Conditions Are Vastly Better Than Has Been Painted By Biased Critics Director Harlem League, Church Federation Issues Strong Statement Setting Forth the Fact That Community Is Misrepresented
Conditions among the Negroes in Harlem are not as discouraging as they have been pictured, according to the Rev. Paul E. Baker, director of the Harlem League, a division of the Greater New York Federation of Churches, who in a statement yesterday took issue with the critics of that section of
Providing the financial welfare and religious agencies of New York City will stand back to existing forces for brightness and morality in Harlem, that much criticized section of New York City can yet become an honor and credit to the city as a whole and the Rev. M. Baker. Their many agencies endeavoring to bring healing to this section of the metropolis, and the artistic contact and spiritual resources of a great race are tools to be leased.
Severe Economic Handicaps.
After asserting that 1. Negregs of Harlem were now lamenting under severe economic hand caps that had their beginning in slavery, the Rev. Mr. Baker cited figures of the Children's Aid Society as showing that the average wage in Harlem is only $18 a week that the bulk of the population of that section is engaged in domestic work, and that the rents in Harlem are the highest in any section of the city. He further asserted that the crowding in that area was second only to the lower cast slur. "The low wages received frequently make it necessary, for all of the family to work," he asserted. "This breaks up the home demolizes child-life and puts a even strain on the character on south Much of the crime and immorality of Harlem is due to the difficult economic situation which confronts the Negregs there.
"Colored prisoners of Welfare Island compose 24 per cent of the total group, yet only 4 per cent of the New York population is colored. One reason for the con-
tion is the fact that there are no parole agencies to Negro delinquents. A further factor is the lack of private and institutional organizations working on vocational crime problems in Harlem. Thus the social background makes it colored easy victims to crime tender.

"ABOUT two years ago, I was suffering with my sides and from soreness in the lower part of my body. I did not rest well at night, so felt about as tired when I got up as when I went to bed. And I was so weak and nervous.
"The lady who lived next door to me advised me to take Cardui. Feeling that I must take something or get down in bed, I decided on Cardui. While on my first bottle, I felt better. I kept on taking Cardui until I had taken four bottles, after which I felt a great deal better. The soreness went away. During my illness, I only weighed about 89 pounds. After taking Cardui I was gratified to find I weighed 140, which was about my usual weight. I do not have any more nervous trouble. I feel just fine."
"I certainly can recommend Cardui."

The "White Primary"
A Menace to Negroes
Editor of the New York Age
May I beg some of your space
to call the attention of your readers
to the tremendous significance
of the present fight being made to
exclude Negro citizens from the
so-called "white primary" in certain Southern states'
Not so long ago, the United
States Supreme Court handed
down a decision in which it was
held that Negroes could not be
excluded from voting in party
primaries. This was in the famous
Texas Primary Case so ably handled
by the National Association
for the Advancement of Colored People.
In decision was epocalh it put the unreconstructed political allegacy of the South in a hole there was no longer any legal pretense for keeping Negroes out of the sacred white man's primary which, in the South, has been herefore more important than the general election. For some time the unreconstructed South was in a quandary. Later it has hit upon the plan of leaving the decision of who shall be allowed to vote on the primaries to tate party committees. The members of these committees are the very whites who have been trying all along to keep the Negro politically helpless. It permitted to, they will bar the Negro just as effectually as they did before the Supreme Court or the United States handed down its great decision.
Florida and Texas are taking the lead in 15 netarious scheme to circumvent the law. One H D Goode, a Negro citizen or Florida, recently brought suit for $5,000 damages against election clerks who denied him the right to vote
in the primaries last April. The case is now being argued before the Florida Supreme Court. If that body genders an adverse decision, the case will have to be carried to the United States Supreme Court. This fight is not merely the fight of Mr. Goode or the Peninsula branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, which, is financing it, not of the national office of the N. A. C. P., which is rendering financial assistance. It is, to the contrary, the fight of all Negro America. If the case is lost, it will be due to lack of money to push it and the guilt will be shared by every Negro
The significant economic changes taking place in Dixie where nine million Negroes reside, are bound to have social and political reflections. In the last election four Southern states went Republican. This presages the downfall of the one-page system and the rise of the two-party system. Negroes will have a better chance to regain the franchise in the net ten years in the South than at any time since Reconstruction. But they will not be able to win out without a stiff fight.
The fighting will take place in the courts. Legal cases are decided largely on the strength of previous decisions. If these precedents are favorable to us, our path to political emancipation will be smoothed, if not, our political future will be as our political past has been in Dixie.
Before it is too late, I call upon Negroes everywhere to go down in their pockets and help the N. A. A. C. P. stem the tide of reaction.

KEEPING AN ISSUE ALIVE.
During the political campaign just closed Virginia Democrats tried hard to eliminate the Negro as a political factor, but without success, although the Negroes themselves showed but little interest in the campaign. The contest was really between two factions of white Democrats, with the Republican lilywhites helping the irregulars on the sidelines. The opposition to the regular Democratic ticket came from the antimith Democrats, who were determined to oust the regulars from power.
Notwithstanding the effort to eliminate the Negro, in which the members of the race apparently acquiesced, even including John Mitchell of the Richmond Planet who one year sponsored an all-Negro ticket, the irrepressible bone of contention had to be injected into the campaign in the shape of what came to be known as "the DePriest circular." This contained pictures of the Chicago Representative and his wife, together with alleged excerpts from his speeches. It also set forth that the Republican State chairman, Mr. Anderson, the Republican platform and the Coalition candidate for Governor, Mr. Brown, all advocated repeal of the poll tax as a prerequisite for voting.
The Lilywhite leader, Mr. Anderson, termed the poll tax statement false and accused Democratic headquarters with issuing the pamphlet, which was emphatically denied. It later turned out that the author of the circular was I. C. Trotman of Suffolk, a former member of the Antimith committee, who made the following statement of his reasons for issuing it to the Associated Press:

It later turned out that the author of the circular was I. C. Trotman of Suffolk, a former member of the Anti-Smith committee, who made the following statement of his reasons for issuing it to the Associated Press:
"I thought when I issued this pamphlet, and I still think, that the people of Virginia should know what the Negro Congressman, Oscar DePriest, has said and done in Virginia and elsewhere since, the opening of this campaign—a campaign in which the election laws that preserved Virginia's civilization from destruction are at stake. I think, too, the people of virginia should know what De Priest looks like and what De Priest's wife looks like."
The former anti-Smith committeeman said he desired to acknowledge "one unintentional error in the headlines upon his pamphlet, an error over which Mr. Anderson has been howling for several days." He then stated that poll tax repeal was not advocated in the Republican platform "But it was in Mr. Anderson's platform in 1921, it remains in the Republican creed and Republican speakers in this campaign have urged the repeal of this poll tax requirement as one measure toward the 'liberalization' of the election laws." Trottman asserted many Virginia newspapers "would not publish the news dispatches he said were used in the "Juniper circular" because they were afraid they might cause interracial disturbances.
This would seem to show that it is almost impossible for the Negro to be eliminated or eliminate himself as a political issue, even in a state election in a Southern state like Virginia.

This would seem to show that it is almost impossible for the Negro to be eliminated or eliminate himself as a political issue, even in a state election in a Southern state like Virginia. So little activity has been shown by colored voters during this campaign that no meetings had been held at all in Norfolk, and one was finally called for November 4, the night before election in order to hear the issues discussed and to weigh the merits of the candidates. In Richmond the only note of political interest in the Planet was the trial of a suit brought against the Democratic judges of an election precinct by James O. West, in the United States District Court, for refusing to permit him to vote in the Democratic primary. The jury awarded West nominal damages of five dollars, that being all that his attorneys asked, and the court granted a stay of sixty days for defendant to argue a motion to set aside the verdict.
Despite the efforts in both parties, the outlook for the elimination of the Negro as a political issue in the South does not seem promising.
LIQUOR QUESTION IN CANADA.
A special dispatch to the New York World from Toronto announced that as a result of the recent elections the liquor question is politically dead in Canada, at least for a time. This condition was brought about by the victory of the Ferguson government in Ontario and the endorsement of government sale of liquor in Nova Scotia. At present the only part of Canada where prohibition remains political issue is in Prince Edward Le-
land, its smallest province. In British Columbia it was reported that the government stores were driving out the bootleggers, although that was a pioneer province in trying the experiment of prohibition.
It is significant that the province of Ontario gave ten years trial to prohibition before it adopted the system of government control now in existence. This system is based on that of Quebec and the other western provinces, with such additional safeguards as the situation seemed to demand; Liquor for beverage purposes can be bought only by holders of annual permits in sealed packages not to be opened on the premises. The government liquor stores are established only in communities where there is a demand for them, never in dry communities, and advertising is forbidden as in this country. The law as to sales is stricty enforced and speakeasies are said to be almost unknown.
Public sentiment is by no means unanimous on the subject of government sale of liquor, but it is generally agreed that the system in practice is free from corruption and that it gives rise to less scandal than has grown out of the attempt to enforce prohibition in other countries. The prohibitionists have found it necessary to recast the whole front of their movement. They congratulate themselves on now being free from all political alliances, which have often proved unsatisfactory. They will now proceed to stress education as the means of building up sentiment against the use of intoxicating liquor.
Unfortunately the United States is not in a position to profit by the experience of Canada in dealing with the "noble experiment" of prohibition. In this country prohibition was made a part of the constitution, and it cannot be repealed without the consent of three-quarters of the individual states. This leaves it possible for a small majority in a small minority of states to block any attempt at repeal or modification. In the meantime, it is proposed to make the buyers of liquor equally liable to punishment with the sellers, which will add to the difficulties of enforcement and probably increase the sentiment in favor of repeal or modification.
PREVENTIVE MEDICAL TREATMENT.
It would seem that occasionally modern science can take a lesson from the past and find virtue in the lore and practices of the ancients. Especially true is this in the field of medicine, where we find the doctors of today taking a leaf from the practice of the Chinese, who are said to pay their physicians to keep them in good health and stop payment when they become afflicted with disease. While the modern practice may not go quite as far as this, it is becoming more and more emphasized that the function of the medical profession is to avert as well as to cure disease.
This phase of medical treatment has been brought to the fore by Health Commissioner Wynne of New York City, in a movement to make the people of Harlem "health conscious." This movement is not confined to Harlem, as some ten thousand physicians of the city are to be included in a general campaign, carried on by the medical societies of the five boroughs, to better the health of the community. But the special effort in Harlem is one that more nearly concerns our readers, hence we take that as a sample of what the Commissioner is driving at in this campaign.
At a conference held in Harlem recently, under the auspices of the Harlem Tuberculosis and Health Committee, and other agencies, it was laid down as a guiding principle, that the Negro is not essentially susceptible to disease<sup>4</sup> but is rather a victim of a high sickness and mortality rate in New York because of peculiar economic conditions. One leading authority maintained that the health conditions of the Negro in Harlem are as good, if not better than, those of the Negro in any other large city in the country. The death rate in New York is a little less than that of any other Northern city and distinctly better than that of most<sup>6</sup> Southern cities. Only in the rural sections of the South were the health conditions of the race what they ought to be.
The fight for health in Harlem was found to offer two solutions: First, health agencies to ameliorate and improve the adverse conditions that tend to bring about disease, second, an earnest effort to colonize or distribute the Negro population in rural sections adjacent to the city, so as to lessen and avoid congested conditions of housing. Until the social and economic conditions that have brought about migration to the cities, undergo a change, it is very likely that recourse must be had at first to the establishment of health agencies.
THE NEW YORK AGE
Illustrating what can be done in this line, is the projected health center to be established in North Harlem, through the combined efforts of Mayor Walker, Commissioner Wynne and the Alderman from the Nineteenth district. Through this agency it is confidently expected that North Harlem will be supplied with necessary medical, social and welfare service to fight the inroads of disease and to make the community health conscious, to the extent that much unnecessary sickness may be averted through wise precautions. Such diseases as tuberculosis, diphtheria, scarlet fever, whooping cough, typhoid fever, influenza, pneumonia, measles and venereal diseases, which now rate abnormally high, could be fought to better advantage with the aid of this-health center.
Another condition that could be remedied through this health center would be the waste of health and money through recourse to quacks and vendors of patent medicines, who take the money of those suffering from common ailments, without affording any relief. In many cases these illegal practitioners not only bleed the patient of his money but totally destroy his chances for recovery. It is significant and encouraging that the medical organizations of Harlem have joined forces in this movement to provide preventive medical treatment and to bring about normal health conditions.
A FRIEND TO TEACHERS.
In the passing of M. Samuel Stern, vice president of the New York Board of Education, the teachers of the common schools, without distinction of race or color, have lost a firm friend. Mr. Stern's service as a member of the School Board covered some twenty years or more, starting with his appointment as chairman of a local board in 1902. He was appointed to the Board of Education by Mayor McClellan two years later and, with the exception of three years, served until his death.
Mr. Stern was particularly active in the financial transactions of the board and in the care of schools, as well as the appointment and transfer of teachers. He was a member of the pension board and his service and advice were considered of great value in all matters relating to the teaching force. His relations to the teachers were 'most cordial and sympathetic and every member of the force was assured of his cooperation in the settlement and adjustment of any difficulties that might arise through friction or adverse conditions. He had a fine sense of justice, and while insistent that teachers should fulfill their duties to the school system, at the same time rendered them justice and fair treatment.
It is the voluntary service of men like Mr. Stern that helps to make the New York school system function as smoothly and as efficiently as it does. It is the democratic principle of fairplay and equal and exact justice for every individual teacher in the system, that helps to make the educational machine function effectively in the formation of character and the building up of citizenship. Men of such character as the late vice-president of the board are necessary to its well-being and efficiency.
CATHOLIC CONVERTS IN AFRICA.
A letter from Abeokuta, West Africa, printed in the Baltimore Herald Commonwealth, told of the celebration of their first masses by three native African priests of the Yoruba tribe, who were ordained in Nigeria. The testimony of a veteran missionary of forty years experience, Father Henry Coquard of the African Missionaries of Lyons, was given as to the joy exhibited by the natives who attended the solemn masses offered by their own priests, the first raised to the priesthood in this country of eighteen million people. The admission to the churches for the first masses was by ticket, and the crowds left outside were described as far greater than those which found entrance.
An interesting incident was described as occurring at one of these masses. The young priest who officiated for the first time was somewhat nervous at being the center of interest, and therefore he proceeded slowly and with great exactitude. Fearful that both priest and people would be over-fatigued by the long ceremony, one of the European priests sought to assist in the administration of the sacrament. But this second priest's place at the rail was almost vacant, as the throng of natives all sought the "padri to wa." "our own father."
This incident reported from the West Coast bears evidence as to the proselytizing tendencies of the Roman Catholic Church and the lengths to which it is prepared to go in increasing members in Africa. If it is necessary to make black priests in order to gather in black converts the church will do that. There is no reason, of why the Catholic faith should
not appeal to the native African, probably in greater measure than any of the Protestant religions. If it is to be propagated with the aid and through the agency of black priests, it will have so much greater appeal. It was also announced through the Baltimore paper that the Very Reverend Brother Paul, Superior-Gen-

The Negro's Value
Editor of The New York Age:
It has been a deep-seated idea, with a number of white people in some sections of the country that the colored people, of America are of little or no value to the communities in which they live. It is also contended in some circles that they add nothing to the commercial nor the business world, and that their activities in the fields of art and science have not been felt or marked in the mart of the busy industrial centers. The charge of worthlessness concerning our group by some of our Nordic friends and neighbors; is not altogether true. All races of mankind have their shifttless classes and they are not confined to any particular race or nationality, while we claim no superior virtues over other human beings and taking it on the whole, we are no worse nor any better than the rest of mankind with or under like conditions.
Like many others of the human family we have neglected many golden opportunities, which have never been presented to us on Silver platters, but even in our most humble walk in life we have failed in many instances to take advantage of happenings that would have greatly advanced our general welfare. We are not setting up excuses for our failures and shortcomings, nor will we indulge in recriminations. Criticism sought to be received in the most friendly spirit, for it helps individuals, as well as a collective body of persons, to correct some items they may have overlooked, even when they think they are most painstaking in their undertakings.
We have no real quarrel with our fault-finders, but we repeat our statement; which was made at the outset of our argument that the charge of not being an asset in the neighborhood in which our people mostly live is far rhin being true. The proof, namely, wherever a colony of colored people make their homes, we find some white men mostly foreigners, who settle in their midst, with a store or shop of some kind, who invite the patronage of those people. They cultivate the friendship of the sons and daughters of Ham, and strong hand of good feeling grows up between them. As the years go by, the former a hint to signon of social equality even breached by the shop keeper till he raises his family; he is then in a financial position when he can afford to move into a more desirable section, and he kisses his hand as an affectionate farewell to his ebony hereditators.
The rent situation where colored people are involved has swollen the coffers of our white brothers to enormous proportions. There are so many instances to support our contention, that we would not be justified in using time and space to produce further evidence. It is quite patent to most every person to ground its none too well-grounded. In knowing the Constitution of these United States, Congressman Oscar DePriest is desirous of placing a copy of he Constitution in the hands of every man or woman in this country who will make request for the same.
The passing of Moorfield Storey has left a cloud of gloom over the heads of every Negro man or woman throughout the world, and their sorrow is deepened as so few of his type is left who believe in the brotherhood of man and the fatherhood of God. LOUIS WHITE. Cambridge, Mass.
New York leads all other states in the installed generating capacity of her electric utility, companies, and has a sixty per cent lead over Pennsylvania, second state on the list, according to a survey made public by the United States Geological Survey.
There were in New York State on January 1, 1929, 255 generating plants with a total combined capacity of 4,159,325 kilowatts, or nearly five and one-half million horsepower. Of this total approximately three million kilowatts are in steam generating plants, and a little more than one million in hydroelectric plants. About 4,000 kilowatts are generated by coal combustion engines. Following New York State Pennsylvania comes second in generating capacity with two and one-half million kilowatts, and California is third with almost the same installed power.
The total installation in utility places for the entire United States is nearly thirty million kilowatts, of which more than twenty-one millions are in steam plants, while the total number of generating establishments is 1,725, operated by 1,720 utility companies.

A Fine Stand
Editor of The New York Age:
It is generally recognized that the plan to bench Dave Myers, Negro football star, in the game between New York University and the University of Georgia, is unfair, unsportsmanlike, and un-American.
Therefore, I commend the manly and praiseworthy stand of Ferdinand Q. Morton, Negro member Municipal <Civil Service Commission, in suggesting to the Board of Estimate that tax exemption be withdrawn from New York University. A university ought to be too big in moral stature and vision to bow to a cheap policy of prejudice, against a people on account of race or color.

"The Literary Lantern" is a column printed at intervals in the Greensboro, N. C., Daily News. In a recent issue it devoted much space to three books about the Negro written by southern white men—Howard W. Odum, John B. Sale and Guy B. Johnson. Odum's book, "Wings On My Feet," was published by Bobbs-Merrill Co., New York; Sales book, "The Tree Named John," and Johnson's book, "John Henry," were published by the University of North Carolina Press, which has published a number of books concerning the Negro. The writer of the Literary Lantern, whose name unfortunately is not attached to the clipping which reached us through the courtesy of Proi, Chas, H. Moore, wellknown North Carolina man and cosmopolitan, reads in part as follows:
"Writing about our colored brother has its unexpected peril. A clipping from a French literary review lying before me argues the question whether Du Bose Heyward is not in some way related to W. E. B. Du Boss, the eligated Negro writer, and not very long ago a northern literary paper congratulated the University of North Carolina upon its liberality in keeping Paul Green, the "well known Negro dramatist" on its faculty. I think it is also believed in some quarters that Mr. Howard W. Odum is colored. Whether the legend has been extended to create a Negro mammy out of Mrs. Julia Peterkin I cannot say; but almost any white writer of the Negro material is likely to be lifted by ardent Negrophiles out of his Caucasian family tree and put to roost in an Afro-American one.
"The writers themselves are good natured about it, and do not particularly mind, but the lazily identification of many who deal in Negro materials as inevitably being colored themselves is part of the solemn seriousness with which the 'Negro Renaissance' is received in certain intellectual circles, white and black. The attempt to put the real Negro into literature in place of the conventional one has been commendable, and much of the beauty and truth has been added to our literature in the process.
Among those who have come closest to what seems to be an authentic picture of actual Negro life Mr. Howard W. Odum is one of the foremost, and his column spoke with pride and pleasure of his "Rainbow Round My Shoulders" some months ago. Mr. Odum now follows his earlier book with "Wings on My Feet," in which Gordon, the individual type of the contemporary southern Negro, home on the A.E.F. and returns home unscathed. He is extremely proud of his experiences—"war and me is buddies," he says he has seen a great deal, comic and tragic, which he relates in the same tone of emotional low relief which made the earlier volume effective.
If the hero of "Winge on My Feet," represents the "new Negro" admirers of the traditional "old-time" colored manny will be pleased with "The Tree Named John" in which Mr. John B Sale creates a narrative somewhat in the pattern of Joel Chandriller Harris's "On the Plantation." When the little boy is born, a "nametree" is planted for him by Aunt Betsey, chief factotum on a Mississippi plantation, who also performs many spells and charms for the health and welfare of the tree and the baby. The little boy comes to the plantation where he grows up to the accompaniment of much lore gleaned from Aunt Betsey and her friends.
The epic story of John Henry, the Negro driller who died" with his hammer in his hand," is traced to its origins by Guy B. Johnson in "John Henry: Tracking Down a Negro Legend." This slender volume is of value especially to the folk histor: Mr. Johnson concludes that there probably was a John Henry who worked at the Great Bend tunnel in West Virginia and connected with a steam-driller.
Endorsing the plea of the head of a local welfare agency for additional park facilities for Negroes, the Houston Informer said:
The Informer is glad to note that we have one outstanding white citizen who has come out openly for more park acreage for Houston Negroes—something this paper has contended for repeatedly; and we are hoping that his suggestion will meet the approval of the city council.
Not only ought a park be provided for the colored citizens of Fourth Ward, but Houston should provide parks and playgrounds for its colored population in all the heavily populated Negro sections.
Emancipation Park, which the city never bought for its colored citizens, but which the Negroes bought and finally turned over to the municipality for its control and maintenance, is entirely inadequate for a colored population in excess of 65,000. Just imaging 65,000 or more people all trying to congregate at one time on a 10-acre tract of land, and you have a mental picture of the institution which would obliterate at Emancipation Park, were all the Negroes in Houston weresemble at the same time on this small tract of land.
When it comes to parks, Houston has been remiss in its duty toward its colored citizens; while parks for white citizens are rather ubiquitous, with an aggregate acreage amounting to 2,473.
If the Negro element constitutes one-fifth of the metropolitan population of Houston, then the race should have at least one-fifth as many acres of park grounds, which would be around the 494 mark; yet the race has 10 acres at Emancipation Park, where no improvements are made to beautify and enhance the value of the land.
With the practical suggestion that the Houston Interracial Commission might find in this park matter a fertile field for missionary work, the Informer hoped for favorable action by the city council:
Dispassionately viewing the political contest between the two wings of the Virginia democracy, the Richmond Planet concluded:
So far as we have been able to observe, we cannot see that there will be any particular change should the independents win. Certainly, the change will not be of a radical character. No "clean sweep" in officeholders can possibly result, although it will spell the sealing of the future political career of that brilliant leader, Harry Flood Byrd. The expressed desire of both sides that colored people were not wanted has been respected. The colored people have not intruded themselves and await with complacency, the result of the election at the polls. They are wanted by the Socialists, but even that party has not made any special bid for the votes of this class of people. It looks very much as though the November election result, when the State went 25,000 votes against the Democrats might be repeated
The Norfolk Journal and Guide advised that every qualified colored voter should cast a ballot, and predicted that, "if the Democrats win by a narrow margin, or if, the fusionists win by any margin, we will hear less of the race question in future campaigns"
Descanting on the desirability of cultivating beauty of the soul as well as the body, the Baltimore Afro-American said:
The newspapers, the AFRO among them, carry advertisements of preparations that are guaranteed to make people more beautiful.
There are dyes and bleaches for the hair, softeners and whiteners for the skin, vibrators for the fat, diets for the lean, and perfumes for everybody.
But you can find no concerns advertising, the sale of an attractive personality, or a beautiful soul.
Some people are naturally attractive. There is something about them that is appealing and compelling. They may not be good to look at, but the magnetism of their personalities makes you forget their plain features, their misshapen heads or their awkward bodies. There is something about them agreeably comforting. They possess what Elinor Glyn terms "It." Booker T. Washington repelled even his friends when he stepped upon the platform to speak before thousands. But within fifteen minutes he charmed his audience, who followed him about after meetings to hear him say another word or two. Frank Kelly, white, late Democrat host of Baltimore, used to attend princes and sit in a shady spot Many
ballad says. His book is an interesting study in the diffusion of a folk-story, and the difficulty of discovering its origin; but it may gently be questioned, whether the real importance of the problem instifies the publication of a formal book.
USE SUGAR WITH VEGETABLES
WATER WITH VEGETABLES
All women use sugar when cooking fruits. Meat of them appreciate the fact that corn on the cob needs to be boiled and salted. Many, however, fail to appreciate the fact that a little touch of sugar all vegetables and at the same time increases their value as a source of human energy. Do you use sugar while eating? Try these two recipes and note the flavor.
Carrot Loaf
Sesame carrot and basil in warmed water tender. Mash and in a pin of the pulp add two well-wetened eggs. Salt, teaspoon of salt, a quarter tea cup, ginger, and a quarter cup of cream. Pour in a well buttered mold. Stand this in a bowl and pour over the moderate meal until firm. Turn out on a hot platter and surround with peas, or serve with a white sauce.
Cook until tender three large or six mall beets in water to which one teaspoon of sugar has been added. Dip in the sugar. Mix well. Make a sauce of one-quarter cup of sugar, one tablespoon of cornstarch and one half cup of vinegar, cooked together till thick. Pour one mall beets. Add one half cup of vinegar and let stand or boil, water the mixture.
who knew him crowded around the task in the sunshine of his personal allity. They only wanted to be named "the Kelly."
Florence Mills, Bishop Stampen Brooks, Al Smith, Fannie Brice were not born with great personal charisma. They have developed attractive personalities through hardships which broadened their outlook and permitted them easily to sympathize with others.
If we could only buy a beautiful soul, or a perfect body, many problems of life would be solved. But we can't. We can only cultivate good graces—appreciation, courtesy, good will, tolerance, sympathy, love of humanity. Think on your good points. Try to bring them out.
That is not a bad philosophy to try out, even if some may regard it as bordering on the cult of Pollyannas aid her sisters.
Under the headline of "That Damnable Hospital Elevator," the St. Louis American arraigned certain city officials for gross neglect. It said:
"Let's have the elevator! Hey up there, let's have the elevator! That is an emergency cry sometimes heard in the dark hallway up at City Hospital No. 2. A prospective mother is waiting to be carried up to the sixth floor. Lugging her stretcher, up the pinched stairways is not only hard going but dangerous. 'She's out of fax!' Contacts on the burn. Use the stairs!"
This reply is not disappointing it is a frequent one. It is just another tedious tote for the porters or interns up those six flights of steps. What's a few extra pains to the woman on the stretcher?
Even when this notorious elevator happens to be running there is danger. More than once patients have been thrown off the stretcher because the elevator was jerked by the hand rope from above or below just as the stretcher was half on. One mother in labor was dumped and...suffered ill-effects therefrom. But what is one Negro mother to big progressive St. Louis and its $70,000,000 bond issue?
Altho the city elevator inspectors have "looked over" the makehift they always fail to put up an inspection garden. Why? And scarcely a week passes that some repair work is not done on it. And again, why?
The St. Louis editor predicted that this same old patched up elevator may yet take some aspiring officeholders for a ride down, when the next election comes around.
According to the Birmingham Reporter, that progressive Alabama metropolis is looking forward to a "Little Theatre in the Making." It said:
The movement sponsored by the Climbers Club has everything to hope for in such a bevy of talented young people as is afforded by the City of Birmingham. We must all displace the threatened depreciation of standards in the dramatic art caused, of course, by the popularity of the moving picture and vaudeville. It must be realized that standards are not preserved without the salt of culture, and, as long as there is only the mercenary side of amusements considered in the production, there must also be a sacrificing of everything that does not gain public popularity to meet the competition of those things that cheapen the price and the quality of amusement. The expectation that amusements be educative no longer obtains. It is the school where literary criticism and production served as stimuli for cultural development as well as amusement, has fallen on days of leanness since the public demand for an everyday show at popular prizes and pandering to all levels of taste has come.
It might not be part of wisdom to doubt the wholesomeness of recreation that does not have a cultural value, but the returns on that which does have cultural values are so much better, that choice on the basis of value deserves the highest commendation.
The wealth of fine-talent afforded by the Magic City has wasted for want of a movement of this kind and the community is poorer for the loss. Now that one of the clubs of the city has come forward with a plan those interested in the best ideals will push it to success.
It is a rare community nowadays, that does not have one or more little theatre movements in the process of making or breaking. As a means of cultural growth they all have their value.
Talking about the patronage scramble in the South, the Atlanta Independent viewed the plight of the Lilywhites with pardonable complacency. It said:
The Republican organizations in the South, as they look on the aggregation of Hoover-Demorata kuxlux and lilywhites scramble to death among themselves for the want of patronage need to congratulate themselves. The leader of this wild rush for pie, like Haman, gung on the gallows they built for Mordecai. They erected a cross to crucify the regular party on, but they are crying out in their behalf the South will never again admit to carpet-baggers, niggers and scallows. They admit that they have are threatening at their own game and are threatening to call a meeting here to organize the South against the President.
They blame Brown Burke and Newton for the existence of unofficial patronage committees in the South, and threaten to line up the South against Hoover in 1933. When just because they can't get a seat at the "ple counter."
As Editor Davis probably had his own troubles with patronage when he was National Committeeman from Georgia, he can afford to regard the present situation with some degree of satisfaction.

the church's history, and the benefits derived from the prayers, and supplications during the period of fasting have been in a great measure responsible for the wonderful results obtained in the divine healing services. Elder Peter James Brown preached the divine healing sermon. A large number were prayed for after the sermon. Two were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. A large crowd came out to the all-night prayer services held Saturday from midnight to 0 a.m. Deacon Kenneth Goodman and others led the sunrise services held from 6 a.m. to 8 a.m. Pastor Lawson 'returned from his trip that carried him the middle west including Columbus C., and St. Louis O., He was accompanied by his son, Horace.

Lastly the death of Isaac. Both generations of Esau and Jacob were explained and pictured in the language of our modern time. The pastorarium was filled despite the rain. Sunday evening.

Despite the inclement weather a fairly large congregation attended the morning services and commenced Day, fusce of them had braved the storm and seemed very happy seated in the front pews; after the services they were escorted to the dining room and served with a delectious chicken dinner. The service was appropriate for Old Folsa Day, as well as a message to the younger people. The scripture lesson, read by J. L. C. Lord, was found in the Bible, and the test was found in 1st Samuel, 7th chapter and 12th verse. The theme—"Raising Our Benevolers"—
There was one convert at the morning service and seven others joined the church. Visitors at the morning service were Mrs. Viola Hirschi Ferguson Swine, Mrs. Teresa Cooper and Mrs. M. Johnson of Philadelphia.

St. Martin's Chapel
"Money" was the unusual subject chosen last Sunday morning by the Rev. John H. Johnson, sarcist of St Martin's Chapel, 122nd street and Lenox avenue, taken from the text as recorded in the 14th verse, of the chapter of the 1st Book of the Church of the Holy Lord; of the lord own have we given thee. Rev. Johnson was assisted in administering the Holy Communion by the Rev. Dr. Maximo Duty. Aside from the fact that it is absolutely necessary to have money for the maintenance of the church—this being true of all institutions, of course—the minister spoke of the supplication he said in part, "In all religions, the offering of gifts has had a large and important place in the service. Alms-giving is a part of the service. The offering of money together with the offertory response, is an act of worship. It is an essential part of the Christian service. In the old Church, constitutions of the people are spoken of as Devotions of the church."
"Unfortunately, some people try to divide their lives. There is no division between your religious life and your personal life. You are not entering the church does not arate you from your sinful abominations. Religion is practical and it must permeate your everyday relations with you fellowman. Henry (1815-1897) often look upon Sunday as a *sponge something with which to* wipe out the sins of the week." However Christ is *willing to forgive* us in spite of our weaknesses. Therefore He Himself represents our fruits of the labor.
"The offering of money has a sincere place in living a Christian life because it represents sacrifice. And sacrifice is necessary to build up Ursula's house, have learned to subdue our sinful desires, have denied our abasuring appetites, we have no strength of character. When we think of the supreme sacrifice made by Jesus for us, we should never neglect it. Ursula has learned gratitude. In conclusion we us remember that the offering of money in the church is a reverent act of worship and a sincere act of sacrifice. Flowers for the altar were contributed by Mrs. Mary B. Brown in memory of her relatives, and by Miss Angelina Wayne Next Sunday, November 11 he will be celebrated as St Martin's Day. At B oracle it there will be a coral commemoration of the various Guilds of the church. The choir will be present.

Emansel A. M. E. Church
The junior church held its regular service at 10 o'clock at which time the pastor, Rev. Henry Nelson delivered the lesson story. In spite of the heavy downpour of rain at the eleven o'clock hour, the auditorium was well filled to the pastor, Rev. Nicholas Nelson, who returned from a two weeks vacation in South Carolina. The sermon was delivered by the Rev. Dr. L. R. Nichols, father of the pastor, who returned with his son for a few weeks. Dr. Nichols is presiding elder of the Georgetown District, Palmetto Conference, South Carolina. He delivered a soul sting sermon from the subject "Wilson that Am" in hearty Dr. Nichols would not think he is saving his fifty-seventh year in the ministry but that he is a man in early youth. He speaks with firm and steady tone and moves his hearers by storm. The Sunday school held its session at the regular hour and all departments enjoyed a splendid lesson, the pastor officiary. Society met and all attended-enjoyed a spiritual feast.

Siloam Presbyterian Church
Sunday marked the beginning of the noble experiment at Siloam, Dr. George Shippen Stark, pastor, to conduct eight weeks services of Worship from beginning to end just as they ought to be.
The pastor took an appropriate attitude on occasion, June 1222, emphasizing that fundamental truths do not change; expressions change, view points change. The mind of God is not only for an ancient day but for today. Religion glorifies man, exaltes man, leads him to higher ambitions. 'We glorify God when we make most of our lives, magnify the goodness that is within us. We has shown us the way and if we glorify ourselves we glorify Him who made us. We should have God at the center of our hearts and lives. Many are leading uncontrolled lives. God must do things in us before we can do things in others. Sacrament of the Lord's Supper was administered at this morning hour.
Mrs. Susie Farley of 360 Cumberland street, was received into the membership of the church at this service.
The Bible school met the close of the morning hour. In accordance with the program of each month, Alexander F. Miller, boys work secretary of the Young Men's Christian Association, gave an inspiring and helpful talk on how to relate our religious teaching to our every day lives.

rous and yet true statement,
"Lots of folks are in the world
that others think a whole lot about,
but I don't." After the sermon he brought
the splendid service of Miss Ince
Brown and Milton Westbrook in rebuilding the Young People's Soc-
ety to the attention of the audience.
The baseball trophy, a silver
mounted first baseman picking up
a low ball won by the Concord
team in the Brooklyn and Queen
championship games, was also
exhibited.
B. Y. P. U. seems to be
producing a good mixed quartet
from its membership. The attend
ance is steadily increasing her regularity of personnel which is fine thing. Neal Hughley, student at Union Theological Seminary, who is doing his field work at Concord preached in the evening from the text, "To them gave He power to become the Sons of God. Probably because of the splendid unity coherence with his hermon went over with conviction, so that the prayer, and hymns that followed revealed what his thought expressed, that though Jesus Christ we, the Sons of God have unlimited power to development and to us nothing is impossible. The Dorcas Dinner held on Thursday last is reported to have been a success socially and financially, and we are the Tuesday night Halloween party of the Unknown club, and the drama, "Fool's Erand," by the Paul Roheson Society on Thursday evening.

As result twenty persons joined the church; twenty the morning till he paid a high tribute to Dr. Tler as a scholar, preacher and Christian gentleman. He urged eve one to do all they can to aid him to become bishop. He stated the Dr. Tler's one fault, if it could be called a fault, was that he was a modest and would have to arrogate himself to the connection if he wanted to be a leader in the A. M. E. Church.
In the morning, Dr. Robinspoke on the text Hebrews 6:16 His topic was "The Soul's Anchor" he stressed the thought that we should not that remained steadfast in trustom and we must remember that the Christian religion is the anchor throughtout and after life. At the evening hour his tonic poem "The Soul's Anchor" text was Psalms 107-29.11. He emphasized the point that Col. Lindhard had will to do, a flew into the skies, the Christ must have the same will and above the common things of life after their spiritual atmosphere, "reach the sky, dite" even if have to fly alone.

By William E. Clark Bill Taylor's fighting and fleeing from Lincoln University upset the day Grounds on Saturday to win a 13-6 v Blue and White eleven from Ham Although each team had lost a game season, Hampton's veteran players had to win.
Bill Taylor's fighting and fleet-footed eleven from Lincoln University upset the dope at the Polo Grounds on Saturday to win a 13-6 victory from the Blue and White eleven from Hampton Institute. Although each team had lost a game earlier in the season, Hampton's veteran players had been favored

"Jack" Haimon 14 Star
Jack Harmon, the last right halfback was primarily responsible for Lincoln's victory. Within two minutes, at the end of the game, with the score standing 7-6, he dashed from midfield to Hampton's goal line in a successive play, to clinch the contest.
Harmon's consistent playing throughout the game has caused the followers of the Orange and Blue to bail him out a second time.
Both teams scored in close early in the contest. Lincoln touchdown was made possible by a Hampton mumble of a Natural pass from Anderson to Seymour was across the goal line. The extra point was allowed because the Hampton line was 7-7 down. Climbs Jones, Hampton's star halfback had been kept out on the contest because of an injured shoulder, but at this point he would put into the contest and after a exchange of punts, Jones began a drive that enabled him to squirt across the line for Hampton's only touchdown. Harris failed in the try for the extra point.
The remainder of the first half was a kicking diel between Harrison and Anderson, Jones was taken out of the game at the end of the half, but Harrison and Jones tonight on for a second touchdown for the Sesader. They soceeded in getting the ball down to Lanceon's twenty yards line, and here Harrison attempted to drop a knee for a field goal. The ball fell short and Sesader kicked out a danger. Then Harmon began his great growth. After the exchange of punts he marched down the field, making a gain of 8 yards on an off-tide play. On the next run he made 12 yards, then a first down a gain or nearly 20 yards, and on his fourth run he made the goal. In a half-dose more plays the game ended, while the purpose of hurt happy Lanceon warranted in the field to congratulate their team. Between the invades the Haupton Institute. Band, name direction of William O. Tesman played the Alma Mate songs of both Harrison and Lanceon, and formed them initials. T. A. J. H.

FISK'S NEW $2,000,000 LIBRARY BUILDING
Addison Carey celebrated his return from the summer season in Washington by bringing to the Lafayette Theatre his greatest musical comedy revue.
The cast of the "Devil's Frolic" is exceptionally good. It includes John Mason, Gallie de Gaston and Jackie Mabley as the main comedians. Doris Rhuebottom, Orlando Robertson and the Southern Harmony Kings as the song birds; the sixteen Carey Howardettes, the five Washingtonian Steppers and two dancing team specialties who are new to the local stage as the main disciples of Terpischore. With such a cast, the show could hardly fail to be as delightful as it is.
The photoplay program is also as good as that which the Lafayette Theatre has been presenting during the last few weeks. The feature photoplay is Henry King's nights at drama, "She Goes to War."
The photoplay program also includes a fast and funny Vitaphone act created by Norman, Thomas and his famous dancing and playing quintet.
At Lafayette Next Week
The 1930 edition of the "Brown Skin Models" will have its premiere presentation at the Lafayette Theatre next week. More effort and money are spent on this annual creation than probably on any other colored revue. Special efforts are being made to make its showing at the Lafayette Theatre for the week beginning Saturday, November 9, a memorable one. Supplementing "Brown Skin Models," there will be the usual excellent photoplay program. This will include "Careers," the first talking picture starring Billie Dove Antomo Moreno and Noah Beery. The program will also include a side-splitting featurette, "The Jimtown Cabaret" starring the greatest colored comedians on the stage, Miller and Lyles.

At The Odeon Theatre
Starting Saturday, November 9, for five days only, the Odeon Theatre will present Oscar Micheaux' latest and greatest production with an all-star all-colored cast. "Wages of Sin."
William Clayton jr. Catherine Noisette and Alonzo Tucker are the stars of "Wages of Sin" which has an interesting and dramatic story and is one of the finest pieces of work ever produced by the colored motion picture makers.
The management of the Odeon Theatre has been more than gratified at the large number of people who have in the past turned out to see pictures made by colored players. Mr. Micheaux, the producer of "Wages of Sin" is the only colored motion picture producer in this country. Struggling against great odds, he has managed to produce the finest pictures in which colored players have appeared, and the management of the Odeon Theatre looks forward confidently to a record attendance for what appears to be Micheaux' best picture.
in it showing how little the heart of man has changed in the fifty centuries that interweave between the Flood and the recent World War. The story begins just before the outbreak of the war, and the victims of a train wreck, on reaching Paris, find that the conflict is on. Then they are carried into the tumult of the nations. At one point a bomb hits a building where they have taken refuge, and they are thrown into the cellar. There a chaplain begins to tell them of Noah and the Flood, and as they are carried back to the ancient time, the story is made a reality. The tremendous cast of the picture includes Dolores Costello, George O'Brien, Noah Berry, and thousands of others too numerous to mention. In addition, the Vitaphone plays an effective role in the dialogue, musical accompaniment and a positively stupendous Flood scene. From Monday to Wednesday, November 11, to the 14th Stepin' Fetcht, the screens most famous and funniest colored actor, will appear with George O'Brien in an all-talking drama or West Point and Annapolis, "Sahute."

PRAMPIN MUSIC SCHOOL PUPILS GIVE THEIR ELEVENTH ANNUAL RECITAL
The "Harry-Prampin-Laura" School of Music, 131 West 130th street, held its eleventh annual pupils' recital on Monday night, November 4, at Imperial-Auditorium, 129th street and Seventh avenue, where an audience that filled nearly every available seat, and all the boxes as well. Not only was it a large audience, but it was discriminating and appreciative.
Musical renditions by pupils included a march, "Iron Grip," by the adult school orchestra, conducted by Mr. Prampin; violin solo "Chanson Indouc," (Rimsky-Korsakow) Philip Rufus; school saxophone octet, Leroy Harper, Mrs. Nellie Harrison, Charles Vietri, Clarence Johnson, Sam Weir; Miss Mary Clark, Anthony Bentivegna and Harry Prampin; saxophone solo, "Nadine" (Hinton), Anthony Bentivegna jun or orchestra, conducted by Mr. Prampin—Ermatiine Hale, Otherline Brown, Margaret Winston, Woodson Davenport, James Strachen, Alphonjo Johnson, Leonia Lockhart, Lawrence Hall, Harvey Steele, John Strachen, Alvin Parks, Bobby Moore, Arthur Mathews, Devolo Blake assisted by Mrs. Harrison and John McMins
Then came an interlude, during which period the junior class was put through a musical test, oral and written, for which a 14-karat gold medal was awarded. When this was over, the school band, led by Mr. Prampin, gave two numbers while the judges were preparing their decision. A clarinet solo, "Sommambula," was played by Leroy Harper, and the band, with Mr. Prampin as first trumpeter, played Wood's "Match from the West." The junior class test was one of the most interesting events ever staged by the Prampin School. The pupils, some of them having only two or three months of instruction under Mr. Prampin, were given a series of questions concerning the structure of music that were answered orally, and then they were required to go to a large blackboard set up in front of the stage and write a variety of scales in the different forms, each being given a different key by the instructor. The first were diatonic scales, with definition of each step and its relation to the one just taken; in the same manner came chromatic scales, natural minor scales, harmonic minor scales, melodic minor scales, and intervals, the latter requiring the transposition of an exercise written in E Major by the instructor into a key named by him as the pupil came to the board.
The pupils were required to perform these tasks within a limited time, being given one minute for each of the scales save the chromatic, for which they were allowed two minutes. It was an interesting sight to look upon the little tots as they marched with assurance up to the board, and to see the expressions of exultation or disappointment as the measure of their success was indicated by the finishing of the task or bobbing waved back to their seats. Another interesting development was the keenness with which the little classmates followed every stroke made by their fellow scholar and the quickness with which they discovered a classmate's mistake, oittime anticipating teacher in the discovery.
The judges had their work cut out for them, for the children worked with such rapidity at times that it was a task calling for unimoss celerity to keep the marking of rating in time with their performances. The judges were Vincent Bach, a world famous trumpeter, formerly connected with the Boston Symphony Orchestra, and now president of the Vincent Bach Corporation, manufacturers of high grade trumpets and other musical instruments and mouthpieces, at Bronx Boulevard and East 210th street, and Lucien H White, musical editor of The New York Age.
The pupile were listed by number, and their individual identities were not known to the judges. So when Mr. Bach was called upon to award the handsome gold medal he could only do so by calling upon "No 1" to come forward and receive the prize. Mr. White was called upon by Mr. Prampin, and he announced that in winning the prize, "No 1," who proved to be little Miss Otherline Brown, had been the only one to attain a 100 percent rating. He stated also that honorable mention was due to "No 6," who had a rating of 85, and this young Miss was Margaret Winston.
Following the prize awarding, the floor was quickly cleared of chairs, and the "U-Tell-Em Dance Orchestra," composed entirely of pupils from the Prampin School, played music for the terpsichorean devotees until an early hour of Tuesday morning.
As usual, the box office and door staff was headed by the capable and urbane James ("Jim") Slater of the C, V, B, A., of which Mr. Prampin has long been a member

When this was Mr. Prampin, gave two numbers while dance was awarded. A clarinet solo, "Sommambert, and the band, with Mr. Prampin as "March from the West."
The junior class test was one of the stages by the Prampin School. The only two or three months of instruction given a series of questions concerning answered orally, and then they were board set up in front of the stage and different forms, each being given a dish. The first were diatonic scales, with relation to the one just taken; in the scales, natural minor scales, harmonic scales, and intervals, the latter requiring rise written in E Major by the instructor the pupil came to the board.
The pupils were required to perform time, being given one minute for each for which they were allowed two minutes to look upon the little tots as they made board, and to see the expressions of excitement of their success was indicated by being waved back to their seats. A was the keenness with which the little made by their fellow scholar and the covered a classmate's mistake, omittey, severity.

AUTUMN GARDEN TEA OF ART FORUM, ORANG
The Musical Art Forsprang a new form of entertainment and guests at its regular Sublage on November 3, when Garden Tea as the feature of the tea following the half hour the Wilson Lamb studio audited Life Insurance building,
The first part of the program, as announced by Mr. Nabors, master of ceremonies presented Mrs. A. W. Hardy, wife of the secretary to the Newark branch Y. M. C. A. who gave a brief, lecture-recital, taking as her theme a primitive narrative melody brought to her by her mother who spent four years in music, illustrating the simple air and its relation to the present American Negro folk music through a series of pianist demonstrations. With a cogent and illuminative talk on the development of Negro music from its primitive form through various stages to its pres-

ent, semi-sophisticated structure. Mrs. Hardy explained how her mother had remembered this native air, heard as given by natives miles away from civilized Monrovia, deep in the jungle bush, and given to the daughter to be jotted down on a rough scrap of paper. Then she sat at the piano and illustrated the theme through the playing of Johnson's song, "Since you went away," and two Spirituals. "Nobody knows the trouble I see" and "Swing low, sweet charion," duelling upon the fact that the same rhythmic beat and cadence were present in the modern-

ired as in the primitive music.
She emphasized the similarity of Negro folk song with that of the Russian by playing the "Volga Boat Song," and closed her discourse by singing "The Rose."
It was an interesting demonstration, albeit "it was a bit more in the class room than lecture playform style.
While the ladies of the Forum were completing their preparations for the tea, Mrs. Mary Smoot, a piano pupil of the studio, entertained with a piano rendition.
For the Garden Tea, the ladies, through Mr. Lamb, had secured a large vacant apartment next the studio, and this had been tastefully and fittingly decorated, the autumn motif being sustained throughout. Golden brown leaves were thickly strenued over the floor, so that as one walked it could be imagined that you were strolling through the woods in autumn. Vines, boughs and flowers, in all the gorgeous hues painted by autumn's nipping winds, were on the walls and tables, and in the centre of the room was a rustic doorway forming a tunnel through the garden. Dim shaded electric bulbs and tapering candles furnished light that approximated twilight, and sufficient tables, each seating four persons, to accommodate more than a hundred guests, were scattered about through the garden.
The ladies serving the tables were Mrs. Villa Mae, White, Mrs. Bernerdine Mason, Mrs. Cora Wynn Alexander, Mrs. Mary Smoot, Miss Jenkins, Miss Anna Brown, and Miss Lula Hill, who was the originator and genius behind the Garden Tea idea, Miss Hill, while in New England during the summer, was a guest at a similar party given by a wealthy white friend, and she brought the idea to her fellow members of the Forum, and Sunday afternoon's delightful and delectable affair with the result.
Each lady served tables at which her particular guests were seated, and an addition took special care of a group who were specially invited by Prof. Lamb. Mrs. Alexander, who served Mr. Nabors, the writer and Prof. Lamb at one table, in addition to her other guests, had arranged a novelty surprise in the form delicious chicken, salad, served in whole tomatoes, shaped in form and color to simulate the glowing poussette. Another novelty was the bread sticks, a recent development, called La Touraine. And Mrs Mason's guests were served luscious fruit salads, served in form of chrysanthemums, which had a whole orange, with its fruit removed and the rind sliced in pieces, and the fruit had been served the fruit salad and the whole frozen into a solid ice. Another novelty served by Mine Mason was sugar, which had been flavored with various extracts, orange, mint, lemon and others, before being shaped into blocks, to be used in tea.
Other tables were as amply served, and all those who were present at the lecture recital were guests at the tea
Among the guests from New York were M Gray Johnson, the artist whose prize-winning picture, "Swing low, sweet charistot," hangs on the studio walls along with half-doren other creations from his brush: Garland Anderson dramatist, author of "Intolerance," James B Lowe, who won fame with his characterization of "Uncle Tom" in the famous Hollywood greetings and william H Duske of the Amsterdam News Rev Father Lewis H Berry of St Phillips P E. Church, and Secretary Hardy of the Y M S. Newark were also present.
Robeson Says He Did Not Protest Cafe's Drawing of Color Line
Paul Roberson, Negro bagpiper, recently forbidden the dining room of the Hotel Savoy in London, had nothing to do with making the incident public, he explained when he arrived here Monday, October 28, in the Cunard liner Tuscany. "No one was more surprised to see it published than I," he said. I did not agitate the matter and intended to ignore it. Several evenings after the incident I was with an English friend and the question of social harriers in the United States came up. She said that such a thing could not be suppressed over there, that it had happened only a few nights before. She was so amazed she took it up with the London papers. "I had gone to the Savoy to meet a friend for dinner. I was his guest. I neared the dining room entrance, an attendant politely told me I could not go in. I inquired what he replied it is against the rules. I then called for the manager and he explained to me that it was the policy of the Savoy not to serve

In fact, the next night I went to the Cafe d'Oro, and there they made me comfortable without a question.

PARLIAMENT TO HEAR
COLOR BAR COMPLIANTS
London—The question of the color lar against Negroes in England will be raised in parliament by James Marley, labor M. P, at the earliest opportunity, he announced, Sunday, October 27. Protests by two widely known American Negroes against their race has raised the question in England in an acute form for the first time.
Marley has assured Robert S. Abbott, of Chicago, of his intention to push the matter in Parliament. Abbott, who was a member of Governor Frank O. Lowden's Race Relations Commission in 1919 and President of the Hampton (Institute) Alumni Association, had complained of discrimination against him on the British Liner *Aquantia*. Paul Robeson, American Negro singer, recently stated that he and his wife were refused admittance to a prominent London grill room, although they were to be entertained by friends Marley wrote of that instance to Prime Minister Ramsay MacDonald and received a letter in answer saying, "It is not in accordance with our British hotel practice but I cannot think of any way in which the government can intervene." Marley said today that the Society of Friends (Quakers) had decided to call a conference and set up a joint council of representative Negroes and white sympathizers to deal with the matter.

ACTIVITIES AMONG UNION MUSICIANS
By PERCIVAL OUTRAM
Deacon Johnson seemed unwittingly to have stirred up a hornet's nest, as his case against Bill Elkins shows promise of developing ulterior consequences to Deacon's charge against "Bill" for "unfair dealing."
The charge against Mr. Elkins was caused by "Bill" being placed in charge of an engagement contracted for by Deacon at the McAlpin hotel in October 20. The givers of the dinner and dance complained subsequently of the service rendered on the occasion. The hornet's nest alluded to above is that the piano player on the job is alleged to be a non-union man, and the truth or falsity of this is bound to be uncovered by the Trial Board, and all the parties involved are liable to be fined for working with a non-union man.
Again, it is reported that George Frances, one of the players on the job, is demanding from Deacon much more than Deacon is willing to concede for his services. The cause of action which came before the Trial Board on November 6, has only to do with "unfair dealing," but the Board may elect to hear the case in all its phases. Paul Creagh and Carter, saxophones; "Bill" Elkins and George Frances, entertainers and banjoists. Aubrey Brooks, drummer; Leslie Lewis, cornetist, and a piano player, few of the men seem to know, played the job Who actually hired them, a disputed question, will come out at the hearing of the case. When the question of payment comes up there is very little doubt the union men will have to be paid as the booker of a job is supported to know who he has booked, and is, therefore, personally responsible to the musicians for their salaries
Hurley, the pianist, now leading an orchestra in a downtown hall has just received from Lieut Jake Porter, through Local 902, the price of an engagement which he did not play.
According to Hurley, the lieutenant hired him to fill the date in September. As the date approached he tried辛幸 to get the time from Jake. The job was played without Harley and he discovered that a woman pianist had filled the job.
Garages were filled against the heatenaft. At the trial inward, Hurley secrete lake brought a letter from the lady and claimed that Hurley tailed to show up at the appointed time, and he (Jake) had impressed the lady into service.
Cross-examined by Hurley the lieutenant admitted the job was for a white excursion that the pianist was a colored girl and was not a guest of the excursion party, and that he (Jake) had taken the pianist on the boat with the other musicians.
Judgment was then rendered against Leont Porter
William Still has been engaged by Paul Whiteman the famous and well known orchestra leader to arrange the music to Mr. Whiteman's aggression on players.
Mr. Still is a Negro and is well known by musicians as an instrumentist and arranger. His selection to Mr. Whiteman to fill the important position of sample guard of his standing among first class musicians. A week ago he left California to fill his position. We wish him continued success.

was well displayed when she sang in Murphy Hall, A, & T. College, before a very appreciative audience Miss Anderson has a marvellous vocal equipment and with it she has effortless power and musical insight The most impressive thing" about her is the joy with which she sings and the ease with which her matchless notes flow forth.
Starting with a group of classical numbers in the Italian, the contralto to displayed clear diction and a limpid clarity of tone. A German group, headed by a notable rendition of Schubert's "Der Zwerg," served to illustrate richly the color and the contrasts of which the singer is so capable. The arma, "Adieu Forests," by Teichakowsky, was the dramatic climax. This was sung in French. Next came a group of modernists in English and the program closed with a zero Spirituals. After the last group emerged, given in and in some of them the best work of the evening was evident. Miss Anderson sang a number of request numbers, among them, "Water Boy," "Cuckoo," "Danny Boy" and "Lindy Lou."
At The Roosevelt Theatre
Janet Gaynor and Charles Farrell, whose unforgettable characterizations in "Seventh Heaven" and Street Angel" won the acclaim and plaudits of the entire amovie-going world, will be seen and heard in their first talking dramatic hit "Lucky Star" at the Roosevelt this Saturday, Sunday and Monday, November 9, 10 and 11.
"Lucky Star" is the 'tender' and appealing romance of a war-torn veteran who is helpless from the hips down and a grimy, uneducated little country maid raised in squalid surroundings. Inspired by the faith which is so evident on the part of the soldier even to the extent that he forgets his physical handicaps, the growth of character and spiritual uplift that will thrill and charm.

Louisville, Ky.—Elaborate ceremonies attended the dedication here a few days ago of the John Little Mission Building, recently erected at a cost of $107,000 and now occupied as a center of religious and social work among the colored people of this city. The mission was begun twenty-nine years ago by Rexa John Little, then a student in Louisville Presbyterian Seminary. Located at the corner of Hancock and Roselane streets, it contains a church auditorium and Sutherland school quarers and houses the Grace Presbyterian Church. In addition it has research, domestic science and manual training equipment, recreational facilities, gymnasium and shower baths. The funds for the new plant were contributed by the people of Louisville in an enthusiastic inter-dominational campaign conducted last year. The mission is distinctly an interracial project.

WHAT'S WRONG WITH POLITICAL HARLEM
---
By GENE BYRNES
Did the, Calored people, forget during Registration week that we had a member of our race on the Republican ticket as a, candidate for Congress? It was utterly impossible for them to forget to register as there were many agencies in operation for the specific purpose of reminding them that they MUST register in order to qualify to work and VOTE for Mr. Hubert T. Delany and other candidate that are running for elective office in New York City.
Let us analyze and compare the registration figures of last year and of this year and see if we, as a Race, had enough racial interest in our own welfare, to elect one of our group to Congress.
According to 1928 tabulation, we find that the total registration in the 21st Congressional District was 112,518, of which the late Congressman Royal L. Weller received 56.2 former assemblyman Edward A. Johnston as an obeseee 138; Blank, 5,570; Mr. Brant 4,050; Mr. Moore, Labor Party 296. Have we increased our voting strength this year? We have a to
DR. SPENCE WINS DAMAGE SUIT IN ATLANTA COURTS Brutally Assaulted By Street Car Men, Power Company Must Pay
A recent court case in Atlanta illustrates on the one hand the serious attacks upon ordinary civil rights for Negroes in the South, and on the other hand, the possibility of self-defense even before Southern courts if cases are rightly handled.
On the night of October 4, 1926, about seventy-five colored passengers were riding on a West Hunter-Ashby street car. When the conductor got into a dispute with one of these passengers concerning the issuance of a transfer, suddenly the car was stopped and the conductor yelled: "Every damned nugget get off!"
A Wild Stampede
There was a wild stampede through doors and windows Five white men, including the conductor, the motorman, two off-duty street car employees and one white passenger, used pieces of iron and other weapons to drive the colored people off and a half dozen policemen with blackacks attacked any who dared to open their mouths.
of the committee are the Rev. J. W Robinson, chairman, the Rev. William Lloyd Imes, secretary: the Revs R. M. Bolden, J. W. Brown, Prentus A. Bryson, F. A. Cullen, A. C. Garner, Florida Howard, R. C. Lawson, P. H. Lee, C. D. Martin, D Ward Nichols, A. C Powell, E W Rakestraw, M. C. Strachan, H Ingram Thomas, Fred E. Watson
The Rev. H F. Jaffaume is executive secretary at 71 West Third street, and the League has three paid part-time secretaries for work in Harlem-Rev. Paul E. Baker. Horatio S. Hill and George A. Taylor. The program includes religious education, visitation evangelism, union services, race relations, social welfare, missions, institute of church finance, Federation Sunday and church representatives.
Greensboro, N. C—Dr. W. C. Jackson and C. D. Robinson were the speakers at the Dudley Daw exercises in Dudley Hall A. & T. College, when the students, faculty, alumni and friends of the institution, and of the late President Dudley, gathered to pass homage to his memory.
Special music was rendered by the Choral Club under direction of R. A. Walls and the student body sang the late president's favorite, "Ain't gon't study war no more."
C. D. Robinson, represented the Alumni Association, speaking on "Power."
Dr W. C. Jackson, vice president of the North Carolina College of Women, at Greensboro, was the principal speaker.
Dr Jackson spoke of literacy in the state among both groups, stressed economic self-respect as a background for the accomplishment of any great work.
tal registration, of 85,000 for 1999,
in the 21st Congressional District.
Out of that we have 21,552 Colored
which leaves 63,448 white votes.
We must get all of the 21,552 Colored
and a majority of the remaining
63,448, in order for Mr. Delany
to win.
Can We Do It?
If Mr. Delany is not elected, we have only ourselves to blame; and should he be elected, the credit goes to our white friends of the 21st Congressional District. When I say the Colored people are to blame, I do not mean those of us who registered and worked night and day to increase our registration, but those who refused or did not have racial pride nor racial interest, and the physical welfare of our Race at heart. It is to be hoped, however, that the time is not far, when the whole Race will rise up as one man and one woman unite together for one specific purpose, and that is to elect a member of our race to the United States Congress in New York City. SAMUEL HOLMAM
One colored man, however, Dr. C. A. Spence, a dentist, and his wife, a pharmacist, remained quietly in their seats. When the conductor observed this, he rushed up to Dr. Spence and cried. "Didn't you hear me say for every damned nigger to get off this car?" Dr. Spence replied: "I have paid my fare and it is late. I have no other means of getting home and I am going to the end of the line."
Kicked Out of Car
I'll be damned if you are!" rejoined the cogdutctor, schreaking Dr. Spence by the arm and training blows upon his head with an iron lever. The victim was kicked out the door into the arms of two policemen who beat him with blackjacks, inflicting bloody wounds on his head. Mrs. Spence cried for mercy and entreated the officers not to kill her husband. For this she was showed about, cursed and both she and her husband pushed into a patrol car and rushed to the police station. At the station, Mrs. Spence was discharged, but Dr. Spence was charged with "disorderly conduct and released only when he had fufished $500 bond.
Secured Defense Lawyers
So far the case follows the ordinary routine of such happenings in the South. Usually the victor is so sad to escape with his life that nothing further isdone. But minus case. Dr. Spence secured two colored attorneys, A. T. Walden president of the Atlanta branch of the N. A. A. C. P., and a former captain in the A. E. F., and A. W. Ricks. They appeared for Dr. Spence in the Recorder's Court. The result was that the case appeared so evidently as an assault and conspiracy that the only reasonable disposition of it would have been to discharge the defendant and preter charges against the white offenders. This, however, the Recorder refused to do, but passed the case over to the Superior Court.
On April 22, 1927, nearly sevent months after the occurrence, the case came up before a white judge and a white jury, and a verdict of Not Gully was rendered. Messrs Walden and Rale went into court to secure damages from the street railway company for this atrocious assault.
Got $1,500 Damagea
The three day trial of Dr. C. Spence, dentist, and his wife, Dr. D. Spence, pharmacist, in their suit for $30,000 damages against the Georgia Power Company, ended Wednesday, October 23, in a vindication verdict of $1,500 in favor of the plaintiffs, ex-Governor Hugh M. Dorsey presiding in the City Court of Atlanta Fulton, County, Georgia against strong criticism, protest and various persuasions to the contrietor. Dr. Spence and wife held of to colorate in their cast iron start to finish. Dr. Dorsey, the firm of Walden & Rock, to represent them in the series of trials in their case when they were being prosecuted criminally Dr. Spence retained the same colored law firm for the civil prosecution for damage.

Rev. Dr. Brown As This Reporter Sees Him
Aside from his attainments as a theologian and his record as a church builder, the Rev. Dr. James W. Brown, the energetic pastor of New Mother Zion, A. M. E. Church of this city, has earned a unique reputation for himself. For a minister, it is decidedly a novel reputation; but it is none the less complimentary.
In the community which bounds his church, Rev. Brown is known as a man easy to approach, democratic in his tastes and, above all, has a keen sense of humor. Those who have been privileged to come into close contact with him declare he possesses these traits more fully than any minister they know. And, on his sense of humor, they say, he can enjoy a good, wholesome joke about as well as any layman despite the dignity of his calling, his position as pastor of one of the outsiding churches of Harlem, and the manifold and arduous duties which devolve upon him as the head of his church.
That is the picture that the man in the street draws of the shepherd of Mother Zion's Church congregation. But that would not be my delineation of the popular minister. From my contact with him, which, of course, has only been at intervals, I would portray him in a single phrase—a liberalist. For testimony of that, just note this:
A member of Eureka Lodge No. 36, P. A. M.; Monarch Lodge 45, I. B. P. O. E. of W.; Southern Beneficial League; Sons and Daughters of North Carolina; Hamilton Lodge No. 710, Odd Fellows; Clubmen's Beneficial League; Ministerial Brotherhood; King David's Consistory No. 3; Medina Tempe No. 19, A. E. A.; Order of Nobles of the Mystic Shrine of N. Y. C.; Ind. Order of St. Luke; Harlem League Church Federation; American Academy of Political Science; Urban League, and National Association for the Advancement of Colored People.
Now, pray tell, who but a liberal could be so tolerant? Who but a free and open mind could stand that array of different orders with their differentisms?
Recently, I had occasion to call upon this clergyman of many affiliations. It was on Monday, and, fortunately, I found him in the church's office, dictating letters to his stenographer. Later he explained that Monday was the day on which he usually devoted to answering his letters. Some of the letters I get, he added, do not merit reply, but as an act of courtesy I answer them all. That, to me, was another estomy to his liberalism. It takes a true liberal to appreciate that no matter how simple or foolish a written communication might seem, if a question is asked, or implied therein, as an act of simple courtesy it should be answered.
But, then, it was an act of plain courtesy for this very busy pastor to grant me an interview. During this interview, the subject of Pullman porters and their activities came up. And, by the way, the Doctor is an honorary member of the Pullman Porters Athletic and Social Club. It was while talking on this subject that I reminded him that some of the members of the porter group had been critical of the lergy for allowing their churches to be used for certain propaganda regarding the porterers industrial situation.
Seemingly the information was somewhat of a surprise to him, but he explained his position by saying that his church didn't endorse or tolerate propaganda of any character. Connected with the church, he said, is a forum. Any subject which has a moral side to it may be stated at the meetings of the forum, but so far as the church itself is concerned it was neutral in all matters in which it is not directly connected.
The Doctor, then went on to say that personally he was in favor or agitation when it was intelligently applied and when the situation demanded it. "I believe," he said, in the philosophy of Booker Washington. Improvements are obtained more by conquest than by behest. He then wanted to know if the agitation regarding the porterers industrial condition had not been beneficial to them. To that question I replied that, from their comments, many of the porterers had thought so.
He concluded the subject by implying that every church had its own policy regarding certain matters, and that where a moral point was involved, the modern church was always on level ground if it saw it to let that point be stated within its doors. In that connection, he saw the modern church as a service station to which all wares having a definite moral side might be exhibited for consideration, but the selling of these wares should, he thought, be done on the outside. At any rate, that was the policy of Mother Zion Church, he declared.
The object of my mission to the divine was with reference to an old friend. The discussion that is mentioned here was merely incidental to that visit. My object being accomplished, I left the Rev. Dr. Brown with a still deeper impression of him as a liberalist in thoughts, in actions and in deeds. A truly unique character for a minister.

Scientists believe that the time will come when mankind, through the mind, can control all of his energy, can be absolute master of the winds and waves, can literally follow the Master's precept. "If you have faith as a grain of mustard seed, you shall say unto this mountain, remove hence to younger place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you."
There is plenty room and demand for the literature of the successful publisher. The work of the beginner is in just as much demand as that of a publisher of many years experience, when he travels in the right channels of life for such work.
There are many successful ways by which a periodical can get the attention of its readers, and create a desire among them to read its news. One of the best ways of finding success in this relation is to properly get the following qualifications: Clearness, Conciseness, Correctness, Courtesy, Character, and Coherence. These qualifications make up four cover letters for a publisher, whereas these qualifications are carried out to the fullest extent, there can be no failure in the business of the publisher: and the world will benefit by such a publisher's output.
Mott Haven Yard News
If the vote for the porters and majids in the primary election on the Plan of Employee Representation in this district is a true barometer of these employees' sentiment regarding the members of the group whom they wish to represent them on their Grievance Committee being the coming year then few of the left over members from last year's committee be chosen to represent again this year. This election, however, is only for the designating of candidates, so in the final election this indication may be entirely upset.

Loretta Doughty and Lydia Schenk are of the committee that yet live and who well remembered the history of many years past.
On Sunday, November 3, closing services of the anniversary morning service The pastor, Rev Horsey, delivered an interesting sermon.
Nevertheless, it is common talk that not all of the present memb- bers of the committee are the best material point of view to present, but defend the contentions and grievances of their fellowworkers. According to talk, this ineffectiveness on the part of some of the present committeemen is not so much a matter of ability as it is a lack of sturdiness, regarding their service record.
Perhaps a clearer way or putting it would be to quote the recent observations of an old porter on the subject. He said:
"Few porters have much confidence in the ability of members of the Grievance Committee to get the employee any more justice breaks in their industrial contentions than the company's management sees fit to allow or grant, but in presenting these various contentions it might be of some benefit to have employees who command the respect of the management to present them.
Seemingly, that is the consent of sentiment among the porters in district, if the returns from the primary election are to be taken as indications of this mood of thinking. The following are the candidates named and the number of votes this received:
F. E. Griffin, 1041, A B Logan, 853, J. Hogan; 835, J. B Ford, 763, E. C. Roundtree, 734, I. Hodge, 422; I. Jackson, 340, H Hogs, 309, H P, Darden, 282, M H, Day, 114
Of the ten candidates, five may be elected to serve on Committee in the final election.
Football has been the main topic for discussion among the porters around Mett Haven Yards preceding and following the tussle between Hampton and Lincoln last Saturday. The porters fraternity was well represented at the game. Among some of the well known members of this district who were porters, were Hammond,ough, Pharohon Davis, R. Mcracken, J. I. Perkins, R. Ringle, Mr. and Mrs. S. J. Freeman, Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Ford and family and H. W. Beckham.
Passing through the Grand Central Station, one day last week, three porters were observed in close conversation, the subject of which must have been of serious import, for each appeared oblivious of his surroundings. An acquaintance wanted to know if a President was at the station? Or why he was at the station? Or why he replied a friend to the three. It is just Great, Hodges and Abrams discussing New Jersey donas
The Boston porter who the right Mont-Haven Yards a easy place in which to patrol Pullman linen must have been reading something about the laziness of the New York police Moral Don't believe everything you read during election times.

Mr. A. S. Jackson writes from Rutherfordton, N. C-
"I would get up morning and my joints would ache. I would feel sore. I would feel sleepy and stupid. I didn't feel water to drink. I heard of Water-Drink and how highly it was recommended. It certainly did me a world of good. So now I keep it in the house all the time. It keeps me in splendid shape." Pains in your joints and muscles are often the result of poison which have been absorbed in the lungs, instead of being carried off in a natural manner. These waste products cause a great deal of trouble to many people, and much relief has been found, in many cases, by seeing to it that the bowels act regularly and freely every day. The doctor Black-braces should be taken to Doctor Brown to open the bowels and put them in a healthy state of daily activity.

GENERAL AND LOCAL NEWS
Famous 24th Infantry, Crack Negro Regiment of the United States Army, Celebrates Its 60th Anniversary
History of Organization Discloses Many Glorious Achievements, Including Volunteer Service in Cuban Yellow Fever Epidemic
The 24th United States Infantry, now stationed at Fort Benning, Ga., was originally formed on November 1, 1869, through the merging of two wartime regiments, the 38th and 41st, at Fort McNavitt, Texas, with Brevet Brigadier General Ranald S. McKenzie, who had won fame during the Civil War, as its colonel.
the celebration of its 60th birthday was held Friday, November 1 1929, with a program of activities that started with a service at 8:30 a. m. in the Service Club and ended with an all-star colored cast moving picture in the 24th Infantry Theatre at 7 p. m.
At 8:30 a. m., the entire regiment headed by the regimental band, marched to the Service Club and Theatre, and listened to a program which included music by the band and an invocation by the regimental chaplain, A. W. Thomas. Extracts from the history of the regiment were given, and there were speeches from the oldest soldier and youngest recruit, Sergeant William McCauley and Private William E. Norris, respectively.
Medals and Trophies Given.
An address was given by the regimental commander, Col. Paul C. Gallerhe, after which he presented medals, trophies and insignias won by individuals and organizations in marksmanship and athletic contests during the year. At 10 a.m., the regiment marched to the athletic field, formed a hollow square, and engaged in athletic and athletic competitions, each company being represented among the contestants. Officers of the r regiment were judges. At 12.45 p.m., each company mess hall was the scene of a banquet for the enlisted men, their families and invited guests, which was followed by a dance from 3 to 6 in the garrison gymnasium for the soldiers and their guests. The event was officially decorated and music was furnished by Scijno's Orchestra, composed of members of the regiment.
Present and former officers of the regiment, with their wives, were guests at an Organization Day dinner at 6:45 p.m. in mess hall. No. 2, and at 7, at the theatre, the moving picture was shown
History of the 24th.
The regimental history showed that after its organization the regiment was divided and assigned posts along the 320-mile southern edge of Texas, known then as "The Frontier," forming part of an irregular cordon of posts set up to guard the Rio Grande and settlements along the edge of the old "Pecis Trail to California." The 24th's main duty was chasing Indians.
After eleven years of service in Texas, the regiment was moved late in 1880 to four stations in the old Indian Territory, now the State of Oklahoma. They were in charge of thousands of Indians-Kiwas, Conachies, Apapaholos and southern Cheyennes, who had been expatriated from the North as punishment, and to keep whites out of the Territory. The whites were more trouble than all the redskins
With the westward moving on the population, the settlers were needing protection from the Indians, and the 24th was moved, in 1888, to stations in New Mexico and Arizona, guarding settlers and miners from Indian outbreaks. It was not until 1892 that the entire regiment was together in one station, being sent to FFort Douglass Utah. This was the first home in a civilized community that the regiment had -or- upheld in the twenty-eight years of its organization.
Helped Take Fort San Juan
On April 20, 1898, the regiment started East enroute to service in Cuba during the Spanish-American War, sailing from Tampa, Fla., on June 14, disembarking at Siboney on June 25. The regiment marched upon Santiago on July 1, and engaged in the capture of San Juan Hill with the 6th, 10th and 13th Regiment of Infantry. Fourth Army officers and seventy-even enlisted men were killed or wounded that day. The regiment had the honor of holding Fort San Juan until July 9, when it was moved into the trenches, where it stayed until hostilities ceased on July 15. On the same day, reports came of the breaking but of yellow fever among the soldiers and that Siboney, 14 miles away, had been turned into a hospital. At 4 o'clock orders were received for the 10th proceed to Siboney for duty in the hospital. The regiment march at 5:30, arriving the plague-infected town at 3:30, aided by 10 with 15 officers and 450 enlisted Major O. Markle commanding.
600 patients were on the main hospital and a great past post was about a mile away. 3,000 troops, two supply depots and more than 200 Spanish prisoners were in camp nearby. Not only were the camps
crowded, but they were also in filthy and unhealthy condition foll-owed their previous occupancy by Spanish students. The regiment camped with the sick.
A Glorious Record.
The need for sixty-five men as nurses for the pest camp, where yellow fever patients were dying without attention, and seventy other men for hospital duty as nurses, cooks, burial parties and attendants, wa smade known and volunteers were called for to fill these dangerous posts. They were establishing glory of the 24th, practising the entire regiment stepped forward, not even hesitating in the face of a possible horrible death from the plague. As July came to its close, the yellow fever had overran all camps. Surgeons, nurses and hospitals stewards were stricken, and sick and well within a radius of fifty feet. One officer of the 24th had died, two others were expected to die, and three others were stricken. Five others were sick. Of the sixty-five enlisted men sent to the camp, the majority had succumbed, their places being filled by volunteers.
Of the 456 soldiers of the 24th who marched to Siboney, not a complaint was heard from officer or enlisted man. The regiment finally marched on August 26 en route bak to the United States. Regimental colors were flying and be in uniform. The officers and 456 enlisted men there marched only 9 officers and 198 men.
Aguinaldo's Capture.
After ten months in 14th and Wyoming, the 24th, except for Co L, spent three years—1899 to 1902 on duty in the Philippines during the Philippine Insurrection, and it was through an officer of the 24th, Lucent, James D. Taylor Jr., that information was secured enabling Gen. Funston to capture the famous Agamalu, During his period. Company L was on duty in Alaska.
Until 1905, the regiment was stationed at posts in Montana, returning to the Philippines in December of the year for its second tour of foreign service. Returning to the United States in 1908, the regiment was stationed at Fort Ontario and Madison Barracks, N.Y., remaining there until 1911, when the third regiment made, staying there until September, 1915. Five months were spent at the Presidio, San Francisco, then to Wyoming, New Mexico, and the Texas border. The 24th marched into Mexico on March 28, 1916, and remained south of the international border until February 5, 1917 with headquarters at Dublin, Mexico.
After service in New Mexico and another trip into Mexico to drive Villista forces from Juarez to San Antonio, the spring of 1922 was ordered to its present station at Fort Benning, Ga., or duty with the Inantry School.

REV. R. CARROLL,
EMINENT BAPTIST,
DEAD IN COLUMBIA
Outstanding Minister In
South, Was Honored By
Three Presidents
Columbia, S. C.-Rev. Richard Carrol, prominent minister, died at his home in Columbia at 9:45 o'clock Wednesday morning, October 30, while the Colored State Fair was observing "Founder's Day," in honor of him as organizer of the fair.
Rev. Carroll who was one of the South's outstanding Baptist preachers and educators, died at his home on the Barhamville road, about two miles from Columbia. He had been in declining health for five years, having suffered a stroke of apoplexey.
Honored By Presidents
Rev, Carroll's ability was recognized by three Presidents of the United States. He was appointed a chaplain in the Spanish-American war in 1898; by President McKinley, serving in the 10th U. S. Volunteer; he and the late Booker T. Washington, were the only Negroes invited by President Roosevelt to attend a child welfare conference in Washington in 1909; he was offered the position of Minister to Liberia by President Woodrow, Wilson. Rev, Carroll declined this honor.
Rev, Carroll was born November 14, 1870, in Carroll Hill, Barnwell county. He received his education at Benedict college in Columbia and Shaw university in Raleigh, N. C.
He founded the Industrial Home for Negro children in Columbia, which has since been merged with the Industrial School at Jroma.
Organized Fair
Rev. Carroll was responsible for organizing the South Carolina Negro state fair about 26 years ago, an organization that has grown and developed to large proportions since that time. He also organized the Race Conference to promote good will between the races in the South, being president of the conference which brought to Columbia many distinguished white and Negro leaders. In 1903 he was appointed chapman of the Colored Battalion, National Guard of South Carolina, with rank of captain. He retired as major under Governor D. C. Huey. He campaigned for Pre-ident Woodrow Wilson, and after the election of Wilson was offied the position as United State minister to Liberia through Senator Tillman. He was unable, however, to accept this post.
Buried Friday, November 1

"We Serve the Right Weight."
THE NEW YORK AGE
Tantrums are emotional outbursts. If the safety valve of a steam boiler is not kept open, the accumulated force of the confined steam will explode the boiler. The emotional energy of children is oftimes confined or hampered by parents, who insist on exerting their authority at all times. Use is not made of the safety valve of intelligent direction. So the accumulated thwarting of the child's native and acquired impulses breaks loose the bonds of self-control in the form of an outburst of anger or a tantrum. We cannot carry this illustration further. But this should be sand: in place of the tantrum we may have stubbornness, or sublimities. The emotional outburst is controlled probably through fear of corporal punishment. Much greater harm is done to the child's personality by this form of behavior, and, moreover, it is much more difficult to handle.
We do not wish to be understood as advocating that a child should always have its own way. We are equally certain that parents should not always have their way either. Tantrums are not evidences that Johnny "is like his father," rather than Johnny's home control has been properly applied. As children become more and more conscious of themselves as individuals they naturally seek to express their power and independence. Now, because we must live our lives in company with others, we must learn to adapt our desires and actions to others.
This the child does not understand—his social obligations. An only child, all other things equal, is more likely to have taintrums than one brought up in a larger family, or who has opportunities to play frequently with other children. The latter more quickly learn the value and meaning of mine and thine, of what it means to do because someone else has rights and privileges also. A child who has had opportunities to test himself with others may have an exaggerated or false notion of his own abilities. He may act as though he wants he must have when he wants it. Or being alone most of the time he may be backward in expressing himself in a group.

TANTRUMS
---
thwart or prevent his self-expression may be the forerunners of emotional upsets. Any physical defect, such as over fatigue, malnutrition, or onset of an acute disease, may predispose the child to a tantrum. Some form of tantrum is a natural form of expression when the child is two or three years of age. By the time he is five or six he can be so trained as to not have tantrums, nor to have his way always, either. Our demands of the child should be few and conditioned by necessity, such as arise at mealtime, or bedtime, or danger. Our demands should be gauged by the child's ability to respond and his intelligence to understand.
Most tantrums should be disregarded at the time; particularly of we have reason to believe that they are the child's uncles of gaining attention. But as the tantrum is a source of underlying fault in training it, should we make for the error after the storm has subsided.
W. Va. State College Making Real Progress
Institute, W. Va.-West Virginia State College represents the State's biggest effort at training Negro youth and attracts the favorable attention of unbased educators throughout the country. Twofold indication of recent progress of the work here was the admission of the college last year into the Association of American Colleges and its inclusion among four Negro colleges whose premedical work is acceptable to the American Medical Association.
This year's enrollment breaks the record for the regular session. In the college, 546 resident students are enrolled, coming from states as far distant as Massachusetts, Oklahoma and Alabama. In the Institution's Service Plan of Education 18 students are enrolled. Forty three teachers in service are enrolled in extension courses conducted by the institution in Charleston and Montgomery. The teacher-training high school enrolment numbers 127, making a total resident enrollment of 734. The department of education, has returned to his duties after a year of study at Harvard. Miles Jefferson, librarian, G. D. Brock, professor of physical education, and I. L. Mokenzie, professor of history, are on leave and studying at Columbia, Harvard and Columbia, respectively.
A gift of $1,500 from the Johns Rosewald school, the second such gift within two years, has been obtained for the purchase of library books.
Bids will be asked on the new vocational training building for which the last Legislature appropriated $120,000, and for which the architect's plans are rapidly nearing completion. The building will be one of the most modern of its kind in construction, materials and equipment.
