Dr. Imea Condemns Vice In his sermon last Sunday morning at St. James Presbyterian Church, the Rev. Dr. William Cloud lines, speaking on "The amendments: 18th and 15th," commanded strongly the attack on vice high places as uttered by Dr. Powell, although not mentioning the Baptist minister by name. Drines, at the same time, denounced strong terms the evil conditions which claim. From many sources have come information to Dr. Powell that caused him to realize that he only scratched the surface in his former investigations, and that the evils of moral degeneracy and sex-perversion among white and colored, men and women, are more deeply rooted than he had realized. Speaking in the phase of the situation, Dr Powell declared his belief that much of the prevalence of these serious abits is due to contact and association and not to inherent degeneracy. The seeking for "thrills" in an unusual character by the modern south is responsible for some of the believes. A Powerful Philippic. Rev Dr. S. N. Vass, secretary Department of Religious Education, National Baptist Sunday School Publishing Board, Nashville Tenn. will Dr. Powell, un- der date of November 10, in the following terms: I am writing to express my best appreciation for the power of philippine which you learned from your pulpit against you and perversion on the part of ministers and lay- ers. It was a note that we would hear in these days and that one who is ther- e conserved will talk from the shoulder as you did.

Our Christian work is in the most perilous situation, and again and again it seems that the very spirit of evil is enthroned in high places. Most fervently do I pray that your words may bear much fruit. Our whole Christian Church needs a new quickening of the Spirit—a new exaltation of Christ in the individual life. Let us meet that this may come speedily." Most Cheerful Sign. One of the best friends among the whites of the Negro in this country is George Foster Peabody, distinguished philanthropist, of New York City and Saratoga Springs, N. Y., whose benefaction to and support of educational and welfare movements for benefit of the race are multitudinous. In a letter to Dr. Robert R. Moton, who spoke at Abyssinian Baptist Church on Sunday cleaning, November 17, Mr. Peabody expressed himself as follows concerning Dr. Powell's sermon. "I was much pleaed to observe the straightout talk which Dr. Powell gave with such force and emphasis and such good response - respecting the purging of the Ministry. I think this out-poken word is the most cheerful sign I have respecting the great advance that he has achieved among this cent, of our population, who have had every conceivable drag put upon their efforts to, what they naturally incline to, Christians in spirit and in truth. . . . Please give him my greetings and with word of my regret that I cannot be there myself (on November 17) and my warm congratulations on his timely and noble and wisely-put words as to the purity of thought and purpose of Manisters." Can Be No Contradiction. The editor of The New York Age is in receipt of a letter from J. Francis Monroe of 150 South 9th street, Mt Vernon, N.Y., who expresses her endorsement of Dr Powell's charges in a letter which reads in part as follows "There can be no contradiction to the charges as printed. Every allegation is as true as they are stated. 'Heads of Church Wrong,' says the doctor; yes, the average head is wrong in spirit and letter, and there is nothing else to be expected of the body 'when the average Negro has been trampled to respect the pulpit regardless of who or what kind of preacher there may be in that pulpit. It will take men with plenty of good, clean moral principles, backed up with determination to save the world for God, to join Dr Powell in his attack on these sanctimonious preachers, with their professed position of mass, while the law is at a level offish and deceiving.

A spokesman for the tenants declared that this unusual action was taken because of the high regard in which Guttens was held by the entire tenantry, who had won their favor by the time disposition he displayed in the performance of his duties. His obliquity, and will in tempestuous years was more than they had held and forty months later the man's trouble was and is red, who had the best Evergreen Cemetery where it was interred. NEW YORK, N. Y., SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 23, 1929 EMERGENCY RENT LAW PASSED BY BOARD OF ALDERMEN FOUND UNCONSTITUTIONAL BY COURT One of the most important legal decisions affecting Harlem was announced Tuesday, November 19, when the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court declared unconstitutional New York City's Emergency Rent Law. 121st Anniversary of Abyssinian Baptist Church Celebrated By The Pastor and Congregation on Sunday In 1808, just 121 years ago, a small group of colored believers drew out from membership in the First Baptist Church, a white congregation with which they had been affiliated, and founded the Abyssinian Baptist Church. Their first house of worship was on Worth street, in one of the illy-appointed and shackly structures of that period. The law prevented landlords of apartments which rent for $15 or less a room a month from raising rents unless they could prove to the courts that the increases were reasonable. The decision of the Supreme Court leaves landlords free to immediately serve notice of increases. While the rooms which rent for $15 or less are distributed over the city, most of them are on the lower East Side and in Harlem, the East Bronx and Williamsburg, Brooklyn. But it will be crowded Harlem that will suffer most, for when the State Emergency Law expired last May, and before the city law was passed, thousands of Harlem tenants complained of increases in rents of $1 per cent or more. Supreme Court Justice Nathan Burwil wrote the note that the Mulligan and Justice Joseph M. Callahan and Richard P. Layden concurring, found that the law interferes with the right of contract between landlord and tenant. He declared also that sunday stew may Kauaiaua unively a State concern. 121st Anniversary of Baptist Church C Pastor and Congr Dr. Robert R.

And so it was that on Sunday, November 17, 1929, the heritors of that group of valiant pioneers gathered by thousands where their forefathers met by scores, but beneath the roof of a magnificent temple, cathedral-like in proportions, instead of under a straggling shelter scares sufficient to bear its own weight, to celebrate in fitting manner the recurrence of the church's natal day. Dr. Love Preaches. For this occasion, the present pastor, the Rev. Dr. A. Clayton Powell, fifteenth in line of succession, had invited the Rev. Dr. J.

Many of the tenants to Gittens, lauding his character expressed in person their tribute and evidence their sorrow at his death. Several hundred friends attended the funeral and viewed the remains, the services being held at 500 Washington Avenue. The Gittens was in charge of Wiley G. Gittens of 317 Bridge street, the oldest trained undertaker in Great New York, and the family expressed gratitude for the untimely in which he handled the large crowd in attendance. Mr. Gittens is survived by the widow and five children. spring to extend the Emergency Rent Laws, which were passed because of a housing shortage after the war, was due to a report of the State Housing Commission which said that a shortage no longer existed. With the expiration of the State Law on June 1, however, many landlords, particularly in Harlem, gave their tenants 30 days notice, required by law, of rent increases ranging from 30 to 100 per cent. In less than a week there was more than 100 rent cases in the Harlem Arts. It was to relieve just such a situation that the Board of Aldermen passed the New York City Rent Law. Both Harlem's Assemblymen elect, Francis E. Rivers of the 19th and Lamar Perkins of the 21st Districts, have expressed their purpose of introducing Emergency Rent Laws when they take their seats in Albany this coming January. In the meantime Harlem is faced with the same situation as after the State Rent Laws expired—and before the City Rent Laws were passed—that of enormous increases in rent and the lands of insurmountable moving landlords. of Abyssinian celebrated By Theregation on Sunday Delivers Address at the flowing Audience; An-By Dr. J.

C Love, for thirty years pastor of Union Baptist Church, Mont-clair, N.

He declared that all human organizations—the government, fraternal bodies, commercial groups, societies, or whatsoever they may be—are but temporal in their constitution and eventually pass away. But the Church declared the minister, is Eternal in that it partakes, of the immortal qualities of its Divine Founder. It is the only creator of fraternal association between men and women He reviewed the history of Abby Sainman, showing that after it had been located in several other places than the original Worth street address, it finally was located on Waverly place, still down town, where it remained for a long time. Many of the Waverly place members are still living and regular in their church attendance. To Larger Quarters. But the church continued to grow, and as the Negro population began to spread, it became necessary for Abysianian to find larger facilities, so the church home was moved to West 20th street and here the foundation was laid for the work which was grown to such commanding influence in the community. Eventually, the encroachments of the business world, coupled with the opening up of Harlem to colored tenants, made another change necessary, this resulted in the disposal of the large block of reality acquired on 40th street, and the assumption of the tremendous task of erecting the present church edifice entailing the expenditure of a Half Million Dollars. The seating capacity is 2,000 with standing room for 300 more. This task was accomplished under the able direction of the preset pastor. Dr Powell who is end- Dr. ROBERT R.

HARLEM SPEEDWELL UNIT TO HELP CARE FOR THE BABIES Harlem Speedwell Unit For Care Of Convalescent Babies in Supervised Homes Is In Need of More Funds For a long time the need has been felt for supervised foster homes for undernourished colored babies of New York City, homes where sick babies would be given a chance to recover entirely before going back to their homes, so that they would have the opportunity of being restored to health and a chance to grow up into normally healthy children. Miss Anna M. Betz, director of Social Service at Harlem Film Associates that such an organization has been established in Harlem through the efforts of a committee who are a section of the Speedwell Society, which consists of general branches of just such type of foster home, in other localities. The Harlem Unit was started in June of this year with nine beds, and has already expanded into an ISB unit, so great has been the demand for replacement of sick babies who are referred for this special care by social agencies from all northern City and Brooklyn. Placed In Private Home. Be sure plan each infant is placed in a carefully selected and supervised private home which has been approved by the Board of Health. The nurse and the doctor if this nurse are both colored women of exceptional qualifications, and are paid for their services. The nurse visits each child daily, takes temperature and weighs child, and advises the foster mother regarding its care. Sure, in close touch with the doctor, we also visit newly admitted babies twice each week, and those who have been placed home and who are doing well, she will only care each week, or whenever the nurse may call upon her to make a visit. The foster mother are all colored women who make living for themselves by a man. Only such as show intelligence and have sympathetic understanding are selected. Many times the grow to love the children placed in their care, and hate to move on when the recovery is complete and the child goes back home. Funds Needed For Board The Speedwell Society supplies medical care and medicines, clothing and other necessary equipment beds, bedding, etc., and milk supplies does not pay the board of the children. Yet the boarding nurses must be paid, and there are many if any, of the parents of children who are able to receive this fund must be made. The amount is $2 per week on each. The average length of a residence given is four weeks, although many require two weeks before complete repairs. Health. The doctor makes the decision as to when a child will be back into its own home with safety. Already reports now tendered gains made, although we have been organized for six months. Readers of The Age are asked to pride themselves to pay for one baby, or vale-cent care for as many weeks as possible. The amount and cannot be measured as one few weeks of vigour are mean, much to the earth.

FINNEGAN (Shot in Finger) PROSECUTION OF FLORIDA MOB IS REQUESTED "Act of Anarchy," Says Interracial Commission In Telegram Atlanta, Ga.—Through its director, Dr. Will W. Alexander, the Commission on Interracial Cooperation, with a membership of a hundred southern men and women, yesterday addressed to Governor Dylan L. Carleton the following telegram relative to the recent lynching at Quincy, Florida: "Governor Dylan L. Carleton, "Governor Doyle E. Carleton, Tallahassee, Fla: "Dressed to note your progressive administration marred by another lynching, the third in Florida this year, in a total at ease for the whole country. This act of anarchy is a serious blow at Florida's good wake and a reflection upon the whole South. The honor of the state demands prompt apprehension and conviction of the perpetrators. However he honors the victims of crime, lynching can have no defense under a government of law, to continue stigmatizes our filtration and discredits our religious professions around the world." In giving the telegram to the vice president, Alexander said: Discouraging Outbreak the latest outbreak in North Carolina is due to For several years the South has been struggling to shake off the birthing habit, and with rather stable success, ten states had buildings in 1926 seven in 1927, and live in 1928. Sugar this year there have been lynchings in only three states. Florida, Mississippi and Tennessee, and Florida has ramified three of the new victims. A number of states have enacted laws and lynching laws with good effect. Among these are laws that state a state's authority under control of the governor giving the governor power to suspend or dismiss officers who fail to protect the citizens, and empowering the state to take direct jurisdiction in necessary in the apprehension and prosecution of lynchers. Probably even more effective however, has been the growth and increase sentiment across the south. When the public newspapers, businesses, organizations, and business leadership point Florida determine to end lynching in that state they will end, with time do, crime will go on to the continued establishment of Florida, the South, and America. It is a fact that lynchings, your nowhere else in the world not even in the lands to which we send our son-arrests.

B. P. O. E. of W., was found by police brutally murdered, in his automobile at Broadway and LaSalle street, Friday. When the body was found, notice said that one of the dead gangster's ears had been cut off and the body bullet-riddled. Police said that the cutting of the ear indicated that Schubert was feared by other gangsters as knowing too much and evidently they killed him to prevent him from squealing. Schubert was freed in court of suspicion of kidnapping Holstein when the latter failed to identify him.

Farmers and Workers to Hold Ninth Conference At Tuskegee Institute Tuskegee Institute, Ala.-James Stone, vice-president of the Federal Farm Board, will address the 99th annual Tuskegee Negro Conference on December 4, according to announcement made by Dr. Robert R Moton, president of the conference and principal of Tuskegee Institute, Mr. Stone is president and general manager of the Burley Tobacco Growers Cooperative Association on Kentucky. The two-day conference—December 4-5 is divided into two sessions, one known as farmers' day and the other as workers' day. On farmers' day the economic aspects of agriculture will be discussed by trained leaders of both race, and by the regular "dirt farmers." Consolidated schools for rural Negro youth is the topic for the workers' day session, which is attended by teachers, ministers, farm and home demonstration agents public health nurses and other rural social workers. The Tuskegee Negro Conference which annually brings to the institute a large number of colored farmers from all states of the South was organized by Booker T. Washington, founder of Tuskegee Institute, to encourage the Negro farmer in the acquiring of land, the use of scientific methods in production and distribution, and in home improvement. Opening two days before the conference and continuing through n. the fifth annual +H Club camp will be held under the joint auspices on the United States Extension Service and Tuskegee Institute A. & T.

MAPLE LEAF PRESS 14 Hamilton Street, Port Jervis, N. Y. ```markdown ``` ing of Federal prisoners on the public highways and county farms, where much of the food is raised for the feeding of state convicts. The Federal Government, it is stated, has sent some three hundred Negro prisoners, mostly violators of the Volstead act enforcing prohibition, to Savannah, where the county authorities will set them at work. Besides working on the public highways and the county farms, it is expected that many of these prisoners will be used in the drainage work on the lowlands which comprise much of Chatham county. The county owns several dredging machines and the Negro prisoners will be put at work operating them and keeping the drainage canals clear. The latter is done with shovels-and is said to be a never ending task. London Office: Gerringa's Agency, No. 17 Green Street Licester Square, London, W. C. 2. Address all letters and make all checks and money order payable to THE NEW YORK AGR. The peculiar part of this agreement between the Chatham county officials and the Federal authorities is, that the Federal Government has hitherto been concerned with convict farming mostly from the point of investigating peonage cases. The fact that it now proposes to become a partner in the enterprise, has aroused considerable protest, especially on the part of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Answering the objections raised by this body, Sanford Bates, U. S. Superintendent of Prisons, gave assurances that the contracts provide against corporal punishment being inflicted upon the Federal prisoners and stipulate that they shall be given adequate housing and food, also that the working day shall not exceed eight hours. WHO WAS THE "DARKY"? Some curious and interesting stories were brought out in the investigation of the activities of certain lobbyists, carried on by a special committee of the United States Senate. Among the developments laid bare last week was a plan for the election of Negro Democrats to Congress from St. Louis, Chicago and New York, according to the tales of several Washington correspondents. These plans were alleged to have been discussed with Vice President Charles Curtis, a former Senator from Kansas, by James A. Arnold, vice president of the Southern Tariff Association, and were supposedly to help promote the splitting of the solid Democratic South, by injecting the element of color into the Northern wing. This may seem to be queer tactics on the part of white Republicans, to run the risk, of weakening their party in the North, in order to gain votes from white Democrats in the South, but it is alleged to fit in with the policy adopted by the Lilywhite Republicans of the South of eliminating the Negro as a political factor in that section, except perhaps for the few votes that might adhere at election times. Documents were found by the committee investigators in Arnold's office revealing plans to organize a "Southern Republican council," to hold the gains made by splitting the Democratic vote in the last Presidential election. Arnold's alleged visit to Curtis was described in a letter he wrote to one of his co-workers, from which the following quotation was made: In reply to Mr. Bates' letter the National Association wrote again, expressing its objections to the lease on the following grounds: (1.) That despite the precautions taken it will be impossible to secure just treatment for the Negro prisoners in Georgia, since "in Georgia and in other southern states there is a three-century old tradition with regard to the treatment of Negroes, and especially of Negro prisoners which could not be overcome by any document no matter how well drawn." (2.) That for the federal government to commence the convict lease system which has been abandoned by the South, would be a backward step. (3.) That the leasing of colored prisoners only constitutes discrimination. The convict lease system of Georgia, like that of other Southern states, has long been a reproach to humanity. That the Federal Government should surrender its prisoners to a system with so brutal a record, cannot but excite apprehension as to their welfare. However necessary it may be to relieve the congested conditions of the Federal penitentiary and give the prisoners work in the open, this lease to Georgia county authorities must be regarded as a desperate remedy. If the lease is not cancelled, the Federal authorities should keep close supervision of their wards, to see that they are not the victims of brutal treatment, as too many state convicts have been. "I went with the darky today to see Vizzie President Curtis and he thought well of our Negro Congressman idea, but said it was a matter that should be taken up with. Mr. Hoover and that he would talk with Hoover about it." The letter was quoted as saying further that Mr. Curtis thought the solution of the Negro problem was to get "a better line of Negroes" to lead in the South. Another letter was quoted from the optimistic Arnold, who seemed to find the term "darky" as the natural equivalent for Negro, even when he was presenting the subject of it to the Vice President of the United States, as a person whose advice could be relied upon to help solve a serious political emergency. In it he said that the whole plan "seems to swing around Hoover." He thought that the President had given the impression among his associates that he is personally interested in the South and wanted to handle it himself. AIDING THE COTTON GROWERS A week or so ago the daily papers announced in glaring headlines that a hundred million dollars or so was to be allotted by a paternal Government, to aid the cotton growers of the South to hold their crops until the price of that staple should go higher. This was apparently to be accomplished, through the medium of cooperative organizations, which would store the crop and obtain advances on its value, until better prices might be offered when it could be sold to advantage. Of course, too much reliance should not be placed upon the assurances of a Southern lobbyist of the caliber of this Arnold, as to what impressions the President may have given or withheld as to his interest in Southern matters. Possibly Mr. Hoover was inclined to place too high rating upon the votes of the four Southern states that were given him merely to defeat Governor Smith. How much or little that has done to divide the Southern Democracy, was shown in the recent state election in Virginia. It is wellknown that the Negro farmers of the South are the prime movers in the matter of growing cotton. Eliminate the Negro from that section, which happened in some places in the early days of the migration to the North, and the result was deserted cotton fields and unpicked crops withering on the stem. But it is not at all likely that those Negro farmers who remained in the South and helped to raise the great crops of cotton, will participate at all in this and granted by a generous government. The cooperative feature, of the relief granted in that section only takes in the white farmers and plantation owners. As to the scheme for "blackening" the Democratic party in the North, instead of "whitening" the Republican party in the South, the only apparent approach to such an attempt was a year ago in St. Louis, when the Democrats sought to defeat Congressman Dyer, the author of the anti-lynching bill, by giving the party nomination to a young colored lawyer. The scheme failed of success as the majority of the colored voters gave their support to Dyer, on account of his efforts to suppress lynching, by invoking the aid of the Federal government. This was demonstrated in the case of the farmers loan banks, where no member of the darker race was included on any of the cooperative boards, and none of them could secure loans, no matter how good the security offered or how great their need for the money. No representation was granted the race on the Farm Loan board at Washington, nor could any consideration be secured for the cases of those Negro farmers who were entitled to loan relief but could not get it through the local boards. But regardless of the more serious issue involved, we are curious to learn who was the "darky," who was taken by this tariff lobbyist to confer wath the Vice President. The contemptuous term used by Arnold in referring to his ally, is an index to the rating given by Lallywhite Republicans to their darker associates, even when they feel compelled to use them to further their political schemes. WORKING FEDERAL PRISONERS. In The Age of last week we printed a report of an experiment to be made in Chatham county, Georgia, of which Savannah is the county seat, for the work It is useless to discuss the matter of farm relief as offering any aid to the Negro farmer of the South, in the view of the fact that the visual prejudice cherished in that section bears him from shar- ing with his white neighbor any measure of cooperative relief. It will need special measures and special machinery to carry any form of farm relief to the black farmers of the South, who have done and are still doing so much to make that section the great cotton growing empire of the world. Without the Negro cotton grower as a factor, the reign of King Cotton would be in danger. The black farmer should be included in all measures to aid the cotton growing industry. TRIBUTE TO A FOUNDER. That was a notable and eloquent tribute paid to the character and work of the new Richard Carroll in a leading editorial published in the Columbia Record of October 31. The Record is a daily newspaper published every afternoon and Sunday morning in South Carolina's capital city. It was conspicuous for its bitter denunciation of the authors of theiken butchery a year or so ago, and it tried vainly to spur the state authorities to prosecute the murderers who lynched two black men and a woman. Its tribute to this case must be accepted as a sincere expression of genuine sentiment. On this account we feel justified in reproducing the article below: It was a striking coincidence, the death of the Rev. Richard Carroll on the day in which he folded of the Colored State Fair was being celebrated. It was well that he could go out with this earthly glory to a greater one, we trust.

He led them along ways that they could accomplish, and which are necessary to the progress of any race, education and wealth. He had a clear vision of what his people needed and sought to give them greater opportunities, and this did. The establishment of a school sided as among one of his minor accomplishments, but there are few things better than a meeting place for people of the same race and like aspirations. There they see what other members of the race are doing, and there comes the inspiration to do likewise.

PULLMAN PORTERS FOR SAFETY. Not infrequently in the news reports of accidents by rail, we read of the helpful and heroic parts played by the porters in the Pullman service, how they rescued passengers and in many cases were themselves numbered among the dead and injured. The porters, as a rule, in cases of emergency make the saving of their passengers their first care. In view of this, it was not surprising to read in the Pullman News for November, that the men of the Pullman service were well represented at the eighteenth annual congress of the National Safety Council. Out of the seven thousand delegates present at the meeting, the various Pullman organizations were represented by two hundred and twenty-five delegates, the Pullman Company itself sending fifty of these. It is said that all of these delegates were constant in their attendance at the congress and reported great additions to their store of safety knowledge. The Pullman delegation held a meeting of its own and resolved to continue the fight against accidents. Porter-G. D. Smoak of Los Angeles was conspicuous as the only self-appointed delegate, he having attended the convention on his own time and at his own expense. His purpose in doing this was stated to be for broadening his own knowledge of accident prevention, so he would be better qualified to carry the gospel to his fellow porters. That is the spirit of service that the tried Pullman porter carries into his work for the company, and which has contributed to make that service as reliable as it is, an time of stress as well as in its routine performance. The Pullman organizations are probably the largest employers of Negro labor in this country. While these organizations, as a whole, have not attained a state of perfection in their relations to their employees, they have done considerable to assist and encourage the economic and material progress of their workers. The fact that a goodly number of porters were among the appointed delegates to this safety congress, showed a fitting recognition of the importance of the porter's duties in the relations of the common carrier to its passengers: When this recognition of the porter as a human factor in the operations of the THE AGE READER'S FORUM Communications addressed to the Editor will be printed in this column, if they bear the name and address of the writer.

Moore was right in his excellent talk at Abyssinian Baptist Church on Sunday evening, November 17. He said we should have all grocery stores and other businesses to be run and the church to be held. But the first thing we should do to keep the white man out is to start from the bottom and come to the top. I think we can do business with our own merchant if we will only trust him. We know the business of the very pound of anything we buy, let we cannot let our people cheat us from the same pound, or we will say we don't deal with colored anyway. Our men are getting a coffee house going on. I will all our stores will get coffee from no other place but our colored coffee warehouse. Mr. Moore also spoke of having our own shoe stores in Harlem. First, we must have customers; then we must have business to dress the same leather; then come on up to the shoe factory to produce so many shoes a month; then up to business stores to our customers. We can be able to run Harlem ourselves and keep the white man out if we get together and use our money together. If we invest our money in the Dunbar Bank, and we will be helping one another just the same. Then we will need more help in the bank and our boys and girls will have better work. Think what kind of work we are doing in the white banks. If they are using our money, what matter will think more we will never succeed. Our race must think before they talk. We all must get together before we can succeed. ROSE TROUPE. 608 St. Nicholas avenue. Atlanta's Bond Election Editor of The New York Age: According to the daily papers it would appear quite evident that a three million dollar bond issue is to be presented to the citizens of Atlanta for action in February, 1930. In the event the bond issue carries the same purpose as the thereby to be used as follows. One million dollars toward increasing facilities at the Battle Hill Sanitarium, and two million dollars to be used for the same purpose at Grady Hospital. All tax-paying citizens in the city limits of Atlanta ought to be tremendously interested in this proposed bond issue. In most cities municipal and state control, the Negro has to be two people in one; first, he has to be an ordinary citizen, and as, a part of the general population he has to make his contribution toward the general treasury of our social heritage. He has to pay the same amount as the same prices for commodities for domestic consumption as members of other race elements. Prepared by N. Y.

We are in a world in which we mean much to these folks: it is His situation differs from the racial groups in that after this, it is done he has to reappear as a specialized individual or group and offer a petition or supplication for some measure of consideration to be given segregated and specialised community. If the proposed bond election should carry, the white population will be reasonably sure that its interest will be safeguarded; that its quota of employees will benefit as the money the employer able. So after it exits its vote, there is no further concern except on the part of those who are seeking employment and those who are qualifying to be accepted as competent. This is not true of the Negro. He must reappear, after having cast his vote, in company with such white friends as he may be able to enlist in the police and give a petition asking that his interests be given special attention. Thorough some arrangement made between the City of Atlanta with Emory University, it appears that the primary goal of the internal joint management of the City of Atlanta and Emory University, in which the Negro division becomes the "practice school" for the interines and the medical students at Emory, is to ensure in charge of each word are white. Negro physicists are not privileged to attend Grady clinics, or treat their patients in the Grady Hospital. The Negro thinks in terms of the professors' election, he must possess a dual personality. First, he must realize what this improvement will mean to the general population of the community. Then he must nausee and wonder the extent to his own special group may breach. The question that is of great moment in connection with this whole matter is whether or not the Negro vote is of sufficient importance for him to raise and settle the question with those who are conducting the hospital as to when, if ever, the "time is ripe" for Negro physicians to be admitted to practice in Grady Hospital, and Negro nurses to be in charge of wards of the Negro division of that institution. Whenever the statement appears that all men or all people are entitled to this or that or may receive this or that, it does not mean the Negro, but when it says that no man or woman shall be allowed here or there, that means the Negro. The awkwardness of the Negro's position is so often misunderstood or so seldom understood by his white friends, as well as the uninformed of his own group, that they both frequently grow impatient with his constantly pressing for a hearing, but where "under Heaven" would he get if he followed the advice of those who constantly tell him to "wait until the time is onportune." Some collective mind should be stimulated in our group life to ascertain what shall be our position with reference to the bond issue and that position should be established before we are asked to mark the ballot. In other words whatever course we are going to take should be definitely formulated by 'leading mind' groups and since it is 'long time' until tomorrow, it should be done now.

Though the way be hard and try- Complaining 'hout living costs, And wasteful in our buying. As a condensed review of current topics, the Hoosier columnist turned out a pretty neat job, although it may not win a poetry prize. Talking about "That Inferiority Complex," the editor of the Star of Zion, the official organ of the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church, said: The man or woman who feels, or admits his inferiority in character, or what not, does himself grave injustice. The parent who trains or should be the teacher of his nationality or texture of hair, sins against the life and future of that child. There is no hope for a people who feel that they are doomed to be scullions and outcasts of society. The black teacher or preacher who should be taken out of the schoolrooms and the outlitt Rev. John R. Gunn of Knoxville, Teenin, in a recent speech preached the following sound and inspiring sense which we gladly pass on: Behold, my family is so in Maryan in Mazarin, I am less in my father's house."—Judges 6:15 This was Gideon's excuse when the Lord summoned him to deliver Israel from their oppressors, the Midianites—the old excuse of poverty, lack of prestige, lack of ability and hiness. It was a case of midianism, not of inferiority, define as an inferiority complex. If Gideon had not overcome this feeling of inferiority and his lack of confidence, his name would not now appear among the heroes of ancient Israel instead of whipping the Midianites, he would have been oblived into a life of failure and oblivion. There is something wonderfully pleasing about a modern, retiring humble man. There is something repellant and obnoxious about a with hospitals, or institutions for the mentally ill. The diet should be well guarded, and those who would like to eat what is best will not eat any meat, but all fresh fruits and vegetables that are passable. Changes and removals are not advised. The birthyear for November 25 promises much that will bring happiness and honor to those who strive. The employment seems to be affected through the death of a child. The dual qualities that will be learned. This seems to be the best birthday of the week. Marriage is not advised, for events will prove rather disturbing later. The tendency to be watched should be watched for it brings happiness. November 26 promises successes to those who follow mental professions, and yet, some peculiar experiences are indicated for them. It seems that there will be tendency to overexert the mind, and yet, some experience breaks down when success is so near. Patience helps a great deal. Changes that will bring much advantage will come in the birth year for November 7, but it seems that you will just want just what one would expect. The end of the birthyear will bring some changes in the family affairs for many of these folks of today. Those, who follow mental professions seem to be most favored. The 28th birthday, much success to those who follow unusual professions, and happiness that will be worth while. The year does not seem to favor those who are just starting out, but those who have had long years of preparation hind them. They are indeed fortunate. It seems that a family chang will bring some sadness to many. These people should not speak hastily or thoughtlessly. This is the good, the best that some men, aided, and not all spent, one likes. The birthyear for November 29 is certainly full of unexpected turns that will bring honor and success to those who can keep their heads up with the moon, and this aspect indicates a strong desire for romance and marriage, but the men of today seem to have the best of this aspect. Flaky actions and speech of today should teach these people of today should watch the diet very carefully.

But the fact remains that no man is justified in making less of his self than his abilities warrant. In other words, one must follow the advice attributed to one of Shakespeare's characters; Be bold but not too bold. Referring to recent cases of color discrimination that have cropped in England, the Boston Chronicle said: Several prominent English have deplored the present ungrateful acts of their hotel keepers to the distinguished Negroes. To black man who have traveled the discrimination to not unnoten. For that reason the culture have been denied hospitality in Irish hostelleries. The Young Man Christian Association in London has refuted black missionaries from Africa, who had to walk the streets of London dependently seeking a place there too, after reservations had been made for them by white ministers. Actions of this kind serve their purpose thoroughly—they destroy all bonds which engendered good feeding and wreathed skillets of Christianity in the colonies with the opiate that the men insulted were American Negroes, in order to create an intracultural wedge of superbity in the colonies with a familiar with this method, and present studied insult to one of their kird. The Boston editor insisted that the racial reaction to these discriminations is a weakening of faith in the virtue of white humanity. The Black Dispatch of Oklahoma City had the temerity to question the ability of Chicago to produce the "biggest and greatest" in the way of football crowds. It said: Chicago football promoters would do well to run down in Texas for few lessons in how to scare up a crowd. Columns of type run before games, and the players would mobilize weeklies, plus the fact that the Tuskegee-Wilberforce game was played in the GREATEST TOWN ON EARTH, failed to produce a greater throng than witnessed the Wiltshire few game at the Dallas Stallion. It said they things down in the land of the Alamo, even though they are not so vociferous as other folk. They can generate plenty of noise in Chicago, but according to Paul Laurence Dumbar, "De noise of de wagons don't measure de load." In view of this disparagement of Chicago's crowd producing ability, we suppose Harlem would not be given a look-in, even if some thirty thousand people attended the Lincoln-Hampton game at the Polo Grounds this month. Denouncing "The Old Political Scheme," which came to naught in the recent municipal elections, the Cleveland Gazette said: Geo. W. B. Conrad and Frank A. B. Hall. Afro-American independent Republican candidates for the City Council in Cincinnati were anticipated. Hall was entered in the race in June by the Republican organization of that city, under the direction of Hon A. Lee Beaty, for the express purpose of defeating Conrad who announced his candidacy in February months before Hall was entered. The "Progressive Government" Committee and Democratic combine here in Cleveland tried this same scheme using Atty. Chesler Gillett, a former officer to defeat Councilman George; and using Dr. E. J. Gregg and Dr. J. A. Owen in the third district, in an effort to defeat Atty. L. O. Payne and Dr. L. N. Bunny, but failed because it was thoroughly opposed by Gazette and for editor who was "on the stump" for nearly two weeks. Editor H. C. Smith of the Goosefell who has not lost his fondness for a political scandal summed up the results of the election in a sentence: "Wonderful Particularly for the people of Cleveland." Commending the action of the city authorities on having "The Lung Block Eliminated," the Baltimore Herald Commonwealth said: "The elimination of the so-called "Lung Block" and the conversion of that area into a clean, healthful, beautiful district that would excite the pride of the people of the City of Baltimore, was one of the first plans of Civic Retention conducted by the Boeing Administration." After two years of quiet but ceaseless labor it has been achieved and in another year the Lung Blocks will become the new city of the old dilapidated tenements surrounding the New School Building, established on Preston street between Druid Hill and Pennsylvania Avenue and the establishment of playgrounds for children. It marks one of the most progressive acts on any City Administration in the history of the City. The colored people of the Northwest are the primary beneficiaries but it is one of these numerous acts of the people of the entire City. Mayor Brenning, the School Board the Board of Education and the Park Board are to be congratulated on this forward step for the health and happiness of the people of Baltimore. That is an example of civic betrayment that might be copied to advantage by other municipalities. Better housing is the proven need of most large cities. CHURCH AND RELIGIOUS ACTIVITIES Saturday, November 23, 1929 The exhibition basketball game between the Wandervers (white) and St James auxiliary teams at the clubhouse, ended in a victory, for the home team. St. Martin's Chapel "The Ability to Think," was the theme topic discussed by the Rev. John H. Johnson, vicar of St. Martin's Chapel, 122nd street and Lenox Street, recorded in the 6rd verse of the 1st chapter of the Prophecy of Isaiah, the Prophet; "My people doth not consider." "One of the greatest assets postseason has given to the ability to think," said the minister, beginning his sermon. "God takes care of nature; animals are able to take care of themselves through instinct, but man cannot depend solely upon either God or instincts. In exercising this important faculty, we should think first about God. We should crystalize in our own minds just what the Creator means to us as individuals. He feels the ideal is to think of Him as a personal Being. Secondly, we should think of ourselves. Look life in the face, see our problems through, make decisions and stand firm. In the place we need to think of others. At the evening service, a special thanksgiving service was held by the Royal M. Maria Lodge of Mechanics.

Col. to pay her tuition at Scotia Seminary. Before finishing school she said she would be a teacher who would bring light and education to those of her race in the South. She went to Daytona, Fla., just a little over 25 years ago, and when she arrived she had only SL50 deft. She rented a room, using boxes for seats and desks to eat. Or she went early beginning grew the Daytona Institute, which was later merged with Cookman College. Damaged By Hurricane. Until two years ago her school work prospered from year to year.

Washings) is sufficiently striking, ample and commodious plant is sufficiently striking, well-balanced, large man to bring about. But satisfactory and encouraging as this is, it is but a important state of Dr. Washings' work. The education and annual turning out of two or three hundred young men and women for love to themselves and their families is of course a most commendable and baleful effort. A person like Tuskegee did so sought to do. His purpose was to radiate from a center like Tuskegee the light of the homely life over liking truths which must form the basis of advance in the race.

Lomax, cashier; Dumbar National Bank, banker; Hollowsworth Wood of the National Urban League sent a final letter of congratulations to Pastor Powell. Alderman Fred R. Moore was introduced by the pastor to serve Mr. Moore introduced Mr. Moton. Tuskegee's principal took for his subject, "Passing Through Death," and in expounding it, he used, as a aid to the passage from the 23rd Psalm in the 19th Psalm, "I walk through the valley of the shadow of death." His talk dealt principally with the difficulties experienced by the race in its efforts to develop and point out that any passing around, or over or under death, THROUGH death, he urged upon his hearsers the threats of resistance in passing through difficult terrain that talks so much about death as does the Negro, but that race success must come through facing and overcoming difficulties that are enduring strong men and women. To Close With Reunion. The congregation gave rapt attention to Dr. Motion's utterances and their vocal expressions of approval were to be heard throughout the address, and there were present all of the newly elected Republican officials, including Aldermen Moore and John C. Hawkins, and Assemblyman Francis E. Rivers and Lamar Perkins.

E. Church, 138th street and Edgecombe avenue, the Rev. John W. Robinson, pastor, to hear Carl Diton perform on the occasion of his first formal appearance here on concert platform. The word "perform" is used advisedly in this connection; for it is with a feeling of disappointment that it must be recorded that Mr. Diton's offerings must be characterized as a "performance" instead of a regular music recital, even though the program was made up on entirely of musical numbers. Advance notices announced the affair as the first appearance of "America's Foremost Versatile Negro Musician," and it is hard to realize that Mr. Diton would so desecrate his artistic instincts even for commercial purposes, however well-entitled he might be to claim the characterization as descriptive of his ability. Inhowever, in proof of his versatility, Mr. Diton was presented "As pianist, Pianist, Pipe Organist, Composer, Teacher," giving practical demonstrations in the first three qualifications, and presenting endences of the other two through two compositions, one each for the voice and the organ; and through the personal appearance of three of his former music pupils from Philadelphia. The pupils presented were Maude Potter, soprano; Calvin Jackson, 11-year old pianist, and Joseph Lockett, advanced pupil, now studying with Alberta Jonas. Other duties made it impossible for this reviewer to hear the numbers by Miss Potter, who sang "I know a lovely garden" by d'Hardelot and the Jewel Song from Gounod's opera, "Faust." Mr. Lockett was at the piano. For the same reason, Mr. Diton's one vocal group was missed, in which he sang, according to the program, songs in German, Italian, English and French. The English song was an arrangement, in manuscript, of the Negro Spiritual, "Every time I feel the Spirit," by the singer himself, which he has dedicated to Miss Minnie Brown, soprano soloist in St. Mark's Church choir. Later in the evening at an informal reception, Miss. Brown expressed her keen appreciation of the distinction accorded her by the composer. The third offering was a piano group played by the 11-year old pianist, and he was playing the last strains of what was evidently an encore number as this reviewer entered the auditorium. The brief hearing afforded indicated that the lad deserved at least some of the fulsome adulations contained in advance statements of his ability. He is now studying with Mr. Lockett, who followed with another piano group, "By the Sea" by Arensky, and an Etude in C Sharp Minor by Chopin. He displayed a fluent technique, but at times there were audiences of dullness and lustitude in his interpretations. Mr. Diton gave the two final numbers of the program, a piano selection, in which he played the massive and tremendous Overture from Wagner's "Tannhauser" as arranged by Liszt, and an organ group, playing his own transcription of "Swing low, sweet charitot," and the Toccata in F from Widor's Fifth Symphony. The position already attained in musical ranking by Mr. Diton was in near jeopardy when he had finished these numbers. In neither instance did he play with the authority and distinction of the artist he has been rated. In justice to the artist, it must be set down on the record that he is studying singing at the Institute of Musical Art of the Juilliard Musical Foundation, under a scholarship granted by the Foundation, and these school duties. I am sure, must have made sad encroachments upon his practice hours. Then, too, he has music pupils to whom certain hours must be given. The "Tannhauser" Overture, which taxes the resources of even the largest and finest symphony organizations, was not played with the dextrous technique needed for its interpretation, particularly in those rippling passages for the right hand which simulate the reed and string effects of the orchestra as heard in the "Pilgrim's Chorus." Other sections were more happily given, but the lasting effect was that Mr. Diton had chosen ally in selecting this composition for his new offering. Nor can one express satisfaction at his interpretation of the Tocca, an organ composition that requires one's utmost application of digital dexterity because of the rigorous staccato passages which come one right after another and which leave the right hand limp and weak unless it is, in sport phrase, "trained to the minute." The tempo, too, was not in accord with the interpretations of some of the great organists who have played it here in New York, but this, perhaps, was a physical need due to lack of time for regular practice. The final impression on this reviewer's mind is that the artist making his premier appearance on the concert stage, in New York or anywhere else, should confine himself to that particular accomplishment in which he is at his best, relying upon the merit of his offering to own favor with his patrons. It does not appear that the real artist needs the ballyhoo methods of the tent circus or of the vaudeville performer, regardless of the fact that "Church audiences are hard to assemble and are not interested in Christian names," an expression used in a private communication which shall not be further identified. SONOMA TALLEY OPENS ARTIST SERIES The first of a series of artists' recitals to be presented by the Martin-Smith Music School, Inc. 139 West 160th street, with members HAPPENINGS IN THE REALM OF MUSIC of its faculty appearing on each program, was given Sunday afternoon, November 17, at 5 o'clock, in the school's auditorium, with Sobhana Talley, pianist, as the soloist. Miss Talley, in private life Mrs. Swanson, a graduate from High University and the Damrosch Institute of Musical Art, taking an artist's course at the latter institution, played an interesting and varied program with delightful finish and style, even though there was all times a lack of delicate finish in her touch. Her numbers included Pastorale and Caprice by Scarlata Tatius; Theme and Variations by Grieg; Minuet Antique by Seebocka; dainty and intriguing Bercuee by Tschaikowsky; a Mazurka in Tschaikowsky; an Minor and an Etude in C Minor by Chopin; two Rhapsodies by Franks, the G Minor and the E Flat Major, with a Romance by Schumann sandwiched in between the two latter. Miss Talley kept her audience, which tasted the capacity of the hall, walking some thirty minutes, but they taken good matured vience, even though no excuse or explanation was given. Ensemble Concert To Aid Newark Boy Scouts Newark, N. J.—The Boys Scouts of this city were substantially benefitted financially as result of a program of choral music sung to a large and appreciative audience on Thursday evening, November 14, at the 13th Avenue Presbyterian Church, the Rev L. B. Ellerson, pastor, under auspices of the Brotherhood of the church, by the Wilson Lamb Ensemble of Orange, N. J., a mixed group of twenty voices under direction of Mr. Lamb, with Mrs. Cora Wynn Alexander at the piano. A varied and interesting program was rendered by the ensemble, assisted by four soloists of the group, all of whom are Mr. Lamb's pupils. The ensemble displayed an improvement in its attack, striking with precision and volume on most occasions. The return of some who have been unavoidably absent, particularly in the bass choir, added to the resonance and solidity of tone, and enabled the director to a finer development of shading and musc.

The solo numbers were given by Pauline Banner, soprano, who sang "La Giaconda" by Ponchielli, with "Moonlight" by Schumann as a deserved encore. Reba Mayo, lyric soprano, gave "Til I awake" by Finden, and in appreciation of the cordial reception given by the audience sang "Celeste" by Harriet Ware as an additional number.

ACTIVITIES AMONG UNION MUSICIANS By PERCIVAL OUTRAM From faroff Tuskegee Institute comes this letter, addressed to the writer, in care of Local 802: "I am writing you relative to a job as piano player in some orchestra of your union. I am finishing a music course here at Tuskegee and would like to secure a position as soon as possible. I will come, providing my transportation and contract have been considered. I formerly played with Clarence Lane's Joy, Makers of Kansas City Mo. I belonged to the Music Union there. Mr. Shaw is the president of the Union there. I also played with Brown Night Hawks of Joplin, Mo. Hoping that we will be able to transact some kind of business soon, Yours truly, WM J. CROSBY." There are several peculiar and striking things about Mr. Crosby's letter, forwarded by courtesy of Local 802. First, we might mention that evidently he reads "Activities Among Union Musicians," which appear only in The New York Age. He fails to mention how or where he heard of "P.O."—we are strangers—or why he should address his letter to Local 802 instead of care The Age. Did Mr. C. think the writer an official in the New York local? He is an error if he did. Again, Local 802 does not furnish jobs, but guarantees protection after a job is secured. This brave piano player may not know it is against rules to import a musician into this jurisdiction. Yet an orchestra may come in under certain regulations. Again, the orchestra mentioned in which he played may be the equivalent of Fletcher Henderson but we in New York are ignorant of that. This is an open column; we are always willing and do give counsel and information to any one, irrespective of distance, who deems us worthy of giving aid. May we suggest to Mr. Crosby (we imagine him to be rather youthful) that as he is at Tuskegee completing his "music course" he might, on its completion, take a course other than music in that distinguished college of learning. The Amsterdam Musical Association will shortly commemorate its 25th anniversary of existence. Many usitudes have the old association passed through, but today it can still hold its head up on its own domicile—thanks to Joe Allen, an ex-president and point back to the perspective of its founders, who so nobly fought to get "colored musicians for colored people." This was Bill Riker's (now deceased) slogan. He not only lived to see its accomplishment of it, but to see the Y. A. M. he happy hunting ground of the left and other individuals who related on association to add to the strength of their prospective orchestras for colored and white functions. William Riker was the first president and manager of the N. A. M. A., and newcomers of recent years. If It's Job Printing We Do It EING EQUIPPED WITH THE Largest Printing Plant in Harlem, we are in a position to execute the most up-to-date work. No order too large — no order too small for our undertaking. — Book work—a specialty. Pamphlets—periodicals. Estimates cheerfully given. QUICK — RELIABLE ACCURATE — FASTIDIOUS The New York Age Press 230 West 135th Street New York Printers of the Better Kind owe it to his pugnacity and diligence, along with many another warrior, some living, some dead, that the Amsterdam is capable of welcoming them, the new comers, in its club rooms. To signalize the anniversary, the board of directors of the N. A. M. A. have issued a dispensation to ex-members and musicians willing to become members. The terms to old and new members are very liberal and are indicative of the gesture of President Thompson to get back old friends to the fold and extending the hand of welcome to newcomers. Apart from pool tables and a room from the Amsterdam boasts a commodious - rehearsal room which is free to any group of its members. January 20, 1930, is the zero hour. After that date applicants for membership in the N. A. M. A. will have to pay the regular joining fee. This is another saxophone story. It deals with a 17-year old boy, seven years a pianist, the son of Joseph Littau, a prominent musician who has, according to the son, studied in Berlin, and has acted as guest conductor of the National Symphony Orchestra; has conducted the orchestra of the Rialto, Rivoli and Paramount; was former choral master for the Boston Symphony Orchestra, and is now orchestra conductor for the Roxy Theatre. Young Julian Littau had been hired to court by angry neighbors of a fashionable Park Slope in Brooklyn, who claimed he treated all hours. Littau Jr. claims to be something of a crusader for the emancipation of the "much abused sax" to higher and better levels. Did you know that the director of the Philharmonic Orchestra is sending two clarinists to Paris to learn to play the saxophone? This fact was stressed to withstand the charge of "noise" adduced by the rate neighbors. So, soon the much-abused sax will sit up and rear its head and demand and receive as much respect as Mr. Violin, Mr. Clarinet, Mr. Trumpet, or any of those dignified members of the Symphony Orchestra. The Majestrate, evidently not believing the playing of pieces authored by Wagner, Kretsler and other eminent composers, could be construed as "noise" or charged with litter, but detected him practice not later than "10 o'clock with windows closed." Among musicians, it may be well to state for the uninitiated that the "abuse" of a saxophone means the playing of the instrument in such manner as causes it to produce wierd and heathenish sounds ordinarily foreign to the saxophone. Miss Jennie L. McLester, teacher Laurinburg Institute, spent the weekend at her home in Camden, S. C on business. Miss Hattie L. Shaw, senior Laurinburg Institute, was called home last week to attend the funeral of her brother Willie Shaw who was 'finally wounded when a pule run away with him and he was struck by plow handles. When the accident occurred Mr. Shaw was rushed to the hospital at Hamster, N.C., but was too near the end of life a journey to be helped. He was the son of the late Frank Shaw and had done much in keeping things together on the big plantation which his father left them several years ago. The funeral services were held at Spring Branch Church with Rev. L. W. Wertz officiating. The body was laid atrest in the Shaw Cemetery beneath a profusion of beautiful flowers. People came from far and near to pay their last tribute of respect to a most praiseworthy young man. Mr. Shaw leaves a wife, several sisters and one brother, and a host of friends, to modern life. Miss Dorothy Wells in company with Mrs. McDuffie and daughter Verdell, mitered to Fryeteville, N.C., last work where they were the guests of Mrs. Marguerite Trage card. John Gilbert's Latest Picture at New Douglass Theatre The screen's greatest lover, John Gilbert, has completed his first talking picture. It is called "His Glorious Night," and was adapted from the famous story written by Ferenc Molnar, one of the greatest living novelists and playwrights. Those who have admired John Gilbert before will idolize him when they see and hear him in his wonderful picture, which comes to the New Douglas Theatre Saturday, Sunday and Monday, November 22 24 and 25. Brave in battle, daring in love John Gilbert enacts the role of a dashing army captain, and of a notorious crook and, conquering every obstacle, wins the love of a princess. Modern methods of crime detection and modern methods of producing the finest talking motion pictures have been combined to produce "The Argyle Case", the greatest crook story which has yet been filmed. "The Argyle Case" will be shown at the Roosevelt Theatre on Saturday, Sunday and Monday, November 23, 24 and 25. Aside from this fact, "The Argyle Case" is most interesting because it is the first talking picture starring Thomas Meighan. Supporting Mr. Meighan is a starring cast of excellent screen and stage players including H. B. Warner, Lilah Lile, and Dustin Johnson. Bert Roach and Douglas Geale. The story of "The Argyle Case" deals with the efforts of a celestial detected to solve a baffling mystery. During the course of the investigation, a beautiful young girl is involved and the succeeding action gives the spectator fascinating and thrilling entertainment.

So much so has this been done, both on the rostrum and through the press, in the past four or more years, that the American pubic is well conversant with the subject. It might, in fact, be satd that the, subject is as familiar to the American reading “publi as 1s the subject of prohibition enfoscement, the tariff squabble, the tarmers plaint and a host of other subjects of national scope. And usm the case of everyone of these national questions, the case of the Pull'wan porter presents its problems; problems for which: solu- tuuns are ibund, on analysis, to be more easily prescribed than applied. \y said, the case of the Pullman porter has been extensively dis- cussed, but it has not becn inclusively discussed, Most.of the discus- sion un the sabject has been of a one-sided nature, It has come most- ly irom the plaintiff's side of the table. And like in most cases where aefendant cannot be induced to tell his side of the story, the com- mon assumption is that he is guilty of every count with which he is charged On the other hand, the case may be one in which the ac- cused 1s a guilty as sin of every crime on the docket, but if his de- jenders are astute and resourceful in defensive methods, the case may not always Be decided on mort) points alone. “ In the case of the Pullman porter, the plaintiffs have' gotten the better af the debate, inasfar as merely debating the case has counted. Ry that, st ts meant that the evidence for consideration by the jury, which am this case has been the public, has all been in favor of the plaints, with no rebuttal from the defendant. 1 Just here, it would be well to explan that it 1x not mtended to amply that there are no merits to the porter's side of the case. The analogy t> merely employed here for the purpose of describing ,the fullness in which the case has been brought to the attention of the public Furthermore, 1t should be explained here that the following arueles. which will run on this subject, will not be presented with the ‘objéch of discrediting the actions of any persons connected with trade union movement among the porters, or” of intimidating those porters who have interested themselves in this movement, Neither are the arucies to be writtet with the intention of criticising the porter’s employer, of prasing thus employer, nor of indulging in any form of propaganda for or against the industrial relations which exist at pte- sent bétween the porter and Ins employer. : ° Briefly explained the object of the articles which will.appear in this column from time to time 1s to present as clearly and truth- aully as posuible, vome of the problems surrounding the case of the Puliman porter, as seen from within, ‘That 1, to recount these problans as they are seen through the eyes of porters who arg aw direet contact with them, ‘This 1s proposed to be done from the ubservations of two porters, whose opinions on the subject thic re- porter will record. These two men, st nnght, be said, are both veterans im the Pull- man service; both are what may be terined sturdy porters, and both have the respect and confidence vi their fellowworkers as well as the gnndwill of the official personnel of their district.

As a matter of fact, the letter signed simply "Roy Lancaster," but as it was written on the committee's stationery, the title was added to the signature in The Age office. Mr. Lancaster, since some individuals have misunderstood the matter, writes; "I want it understood that I congratulated you on your reelection in my capacity as a private citizen and not as an officer of the Colored Non-Partisan Committee for the Reelection of Mayor James J. Walker. The fact that my letter was sent on the letterhead of the Non-Partisan Committee was due to an fortunate clerical error. The committee was formed specifically for the purpose of bringing about the reelection of Mayor Walker and not that of any other candidate, although it was composed of members of the three leading political parties in this city." "Hearty congratulations. I 'never doubled your reelection, for your service, so efficient and effective, made it imperative to return you to further carry out your program of progressive good for the community. We were all busy in a most interesting campaigns. Some disappointments, yes, but we have much to be thankful for. An awakening has started to register who never did, yet we must endeavor to resound the blast louder, for we are not up to the quota by long odds. May you continue in good health and God's good blessings be with you."—Bather Archer. "Accept my heartiest congratulations for the great victory you have won in being reelected to the Board of Aldermen. You have been full in the fulfilment of your duties the past year, and our confidence in you is unshaken for the coming year. You can rely on my prayers and cooperation. God bless you and yours."—L. Bailey, 'adjustant, Harlem Branch, Salvation Army, 48 West 135th street. From Brooklyn, N. Y. "Congratulations on your successful political fight and victory. It was. I think, the efforts on your art that greatly helped our other loved men. Keep up the fight. Not for the sake of limited Harrah—Sarah E. Weeks. From Wyoming, Pa. "Congratulations to the successful Harlem Negro candidates at the last election in New York. Yourself especially, since your distinctive service, not alone to our group, but to the City of New York, convinces us that the interests of both will continue to be well served in the future as we have been in the past. Consequently, we are also due to the Negro community in the past is awakening to the truth that the only way to liberty and equality is through the intelligent use of the ballot."—Fred Stevens From Indiana. I want to congratulate you on your recollection. It is not only a personal triumph, but it is a triumph for the race. The citizens of New York have shown good judgment in electing so many men of color to official positions. I agree with you that we must depend upon ourselves to elect men if we want them elected. The seed that has been sown is the New York age for lo, these many years, is now hugging forth fruit a hundredfold." D. Daniel Denus A. Bethea (M. D.). Hammond, Ind. From Minneapolis "I want to say that I knew you would be relected and to add my dedication at the happy culmination." (Rev.) J. M. Boddy. Mimpaelega. From Plainfield, N. I. "The Ace correspondent and his many friends all unite in sending their congratulations to Alderman Fred R. Mogre and the other Republican candidates upon the successful outcome of their fight for elective representation"—C. E. Epps, correspondent to The Age. From Missouri. "Please accept my sincere heartfelt congratulations on your splendid victory. Your election to the Board of Aldermen for the second time testifies the esteem in which you are held by your fellow citizens,"—K. McMOORE, 130 Newport avenue, WebOore Grove. From Tennessee "I am writing to congratulate you upon the remarkable confidence of your people in you as expressed in the overwhelming vote by which you have been returned to the Board of Alderman in New York City. I know of few men of the same high character and merit as yourself. You have ever stood for the right against any kind of odds, and I rejoice with you that your position has been abundantly indicated."—(Rex) S. N.

F. THOMAS, Prom Christmas Wishes Lemon Hard Sauce To Board of Trustees THE NEW YORK AGE We are indebted to Mrs. Isabelle Spiller, who conducts a music studio at 232 West 138th street, for the following article. She has given considerable time to the problem of teaching young children instrumental music. In the "Etude: A Magazine of Music," for August, September and October, 1928, she conducted a department on "The Educational Value of the Toy Symphony." November, 1928, the "Etude" published her letter on "Music Education in the Home." The "Metronome," another musical magazine, published her article on "Selecting an instrument for the school," November 1928. Mrs. Spiller is graduate of the New England Conservatory of Music and has pursued courses in the Department of Music of Columbia University, in conjunction with her practical experience with children's hands and orchestras. MUSIC AND CHILDREN. If one has followed the interesting articles by Dr. Smith on "Better Babies," one will observe that he agrees with the modern trend in the education of the child. At one time the child of school age was considered the most important. Now the first seventy months of the life of a child are considered the most important. This is called the pre-school period. For this period there are schools with children from six months to four years. Psychologists have clinics for the sure period. The schools are termed nursery schools. Experiments are conducted here by those scientifically trained for the purpose of observing various phases and stages in child development. The physician is interested in every aspect which will assist him in a satisfactory diagnosis of the child brought to him for treatment. Just as "Better Babies," articles have spoken of "Toys," "Disobedence," "Play," and "Tantrums," so NOTICE TO STOCKHOLDERS You are hereby notified that pursuant to the request of the President a Special Meeting of the Stockholders of the Headquarters Building Association of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows, of the State of New York, Inc. will be held at Unique Colony Hall, 254 West 135th Street, New York City, on Monday, November 25, promptly at 8 o'clock, to consider and take action on the following proposal: 1st.

Sometimes "Tantrums," emotional outbursts, are caused by parents insisting on the child playing the violin when the child wants to play the drum. It may be that a test given the child would show that the child should play the drum. However, the wish of the child should be given some consideration. The question which comes to the mind of the parent is, "How am I to know what instrument will suit the child." One way would probably be through play, supplemented by tests, experiments and observation. The preschool music course, if we may call it such, uses small drums, tamborines, triangles and other percussion instruments. The children who respond by tapping the instrument rhythmically to tunes played or sung show they have the fundamental of music, rhythm, which the psychologist Seashore says is innate. If the child has rhythm, we have the essential fundamental to work on and develop. In tapping instruments and making rhythmic motions the child is also engaged in a pleasurable and satisfying activity. The musical environment should include the best music for the child to hear. It should be encouraged in its efforts to sing. If a parent has in mind a musical career for the child it is well to have made sense of the time if the economic situation is to be considered also from the standpoint of disappointment. Musical talent does not always man a itself as an early age. Tests may be an as an aid in discovering what musical activity the child should pursue, and, as also an aid in detecting a musical weakness so that it can be strengthened. The child's wish in regard to an instrument should be considered. There is no definite age at which to begin music study. It is best to expose the child and observe how it responds. In our "Tiny Tots Band" at Columbus Hill Center, (my own experiment) we have preschool and children of school age, tots from two years and four is given in the form of a music play period. The attendance in this band is the largest and best in the music department. The children show a deep preference for a performance instruments. They also observe the piano, violin and other instrumental classes which give them the opportunity of making a selection later. Dr. Kwalwasser has found through tests that Negro children are superior in rhythmic ability and tonal memory. Playing rhythms and making rhythmic motions develops this capacity as well as giving the activity the child needs during this period. Just as other toys have a certain educational value so there is a value in the toy symphony, and rhythm bands for children. Play in music may be a preparation for the future composer or artist. It is well to observe the child in a musical environment for these elements and direct the training in the form of play. "Better Babies" column will be glad to answer questions on music for children. If you are interested in knowing the necessary musical discrimination for a child to have in playing a violin, a drum, a French horn or a trumpet, we should be very glad to answer through this column.
