Ten Girls In Training Employment By W Of Whom Will Be High School and College Course Under Expert I 137th ST. YWCA—C Following close upon in The New York Age of o ern Union Telegraph Co. employees in its West 135th slem, that company institu girls in the necessary cap period of training is end to work.
The enrollment of a list of fifty-six girls was done by Mrs. Josephine Pinyon Holmes, employment secretary of the West 137th Street Y. W. C. A., the girls being selected not only from the list of Y. W. C. A. girls but from various other agencies and from individual recommendations.
Ten Passed Tests
Mrs. Ritchie, female employee selector for the telegraph company, with office at 395 Broadway, selected seventeen from this list for personal interviews, and fourteen of the seventeen were picked to take the intelligence tests on Friday, January 24. It was considered a unusually high percentage when ten of the fourteen passed these tests and were accepted for the training class, which began its work on Monday, January 27, in one of the class rooms of the 137th Street Y, W. C. A.
It is worthy of note that the Y W. C. A., of which Mrs. Cecelia Cabaniss Saunders is the general secretary, is furnishing all of the service in connection with the training class free of all cost to either the company or the girls. The employment secretary had only three days in which to find the people, and the 56 girls were interviewed during a period of two and one-half days. Many telephone calls were made and letters written by Mrs. Holmes.
An Intensive Course
The class is held from 9 a. m. to 5 p. m. from Monday to Friday, inclusive with a session on Saturday from 9 a. m. to 12 noon. The instructor, A. H. Cote, is from the employment office at 395 Broadway, and was assigned to this work by Mr. Nicol, the personnel manager. The class will be held for two weeks, the girls being given an intensive course of training in that time that regularly requires six weeks. This does not mean that there is any change in the requirements, for the same application forms and the same training tests are given these girls as are given all applicants.
The stipulations set by the company required that applicants must be full high school graduates, with a preference given those with college background. In the group chosen for the training, six have had college training, two of whom are college graduates, and all have had full high school courses. The age limit was placed at 25 years. When the course of training is completed, four of the girls will be selected and placed in the 135th street office. The others will be listed for future calls, and it is thought that another class will be organized in the near future.

HARLEM MINISTERS PROTEST IMPLIED SEGREGATION IDEA IN FEDERATION OF CHURCHES Withdraw From Affiliation and Cancel All Engagements In Harlem; Dr. Powell and Watt Terry Disagree With Action
The Interdenominational Preachers' Meeting, at its session on Monday, passed a resolution of protest on statements made by George H. Hobart, director of the research department of the Greater New York Federation of Churches made public on Sunday, in which Mr. Hobart announced the start of a study of Negro migration from Harlem to other parts of the metropolitan district in relation to the churches.
Mr. Hobart said that large settlements of Negroes have sprung up in Jamaica, Flushing, Brooklyn and other districts, and said: tion of Churches, until this report is repudiated. 2nd. We are alarmed at the fact that such a report should escape the
Criticize Negro Migraton.
It is of very great importance to the churches," continued Mr. Hobart. "There are instances where churches have been-almost put out of business by these movements of Negroes. If the Negro stays in one place, then the church knows its future problems, but when he moves from place to place the future of the church in those localities is very uncertain. The reason for the survey is to assist in dealing with the problems of these churches and to determine the need for new churches or the removal of unnecessary ones.
Cancel All Engagements
The text of the resolution passed by the ministers is as follows: 1st. Because of the evil effects of suggested segregation and racial reflection, refuses to further cooperate with the New York Federa- Court Gives $500,0 Of Broker T

the $500,000 estate of the late
Charles A Pulsifer, a board of
trade member, who died last February
Mrs. King was made the heir to the white man's estate in his will
Pulsifer's granddaughter, Mrs.
Alice J. Crockett, sued to take the wealth away from Mrs. King
Judge Robert E. Gentzel, in a 24 page opinion, ruled that the gifts were voluntary and made without fraud while Pulsifer was mentally sound.
While Mrs. King won legal right
to all she claimed, Mrs. Crockett
got a few concessions. Mrs. Crockett was awarded Pulsifer's board of trade membership certificate,
estimated to be worth $50,000, as well as five coupons worth $12,500.
Under the terms of the judge's decision and in accordance with Pulsifer's will, Mrs. King gets:

Mrs Crockett charged in her suit that her grandfather was of miserly habits until he suffered a stroke February 9, 1925, and during the two years following Mrs King wheedled him out of his wealth.

Ocilla, Ga.—Overpowering Sheriff W. C. Tyler and his deputies early Saturday, February 1, a mob of 500 took Jimmy Levine, a Negro, from the officers and lynched him ten miles from town. The man had been arrested about an hour before at Mystic, Ga., for attacking and slaying a 14-year old white girl.
Mississippi's Supreme Court Clears Dr. S. T. Redmond of Jackson From All Blame In Disbarment Proceeding Reverses Action Chancery Court Judge Who Entered Order of Disbarment On Charges of Allged Extortionate Fees In Will Cases
Jackson, Miss.—Dr. S. D. Redmond, attorney-at-law, whose fight to save himself from disbarment at the hands of Judge V. J. Stricker of the Hinds County Chancery Court, has been entirely and completely exonerated by the Supreme Court of Mississippi in a decision handed down by that tribunal on Monday, January 27, upholding all four of the specifications contained in Redmond's appeal.
Sheriff Tyler, who was roughly handled by a group of twenty-five or thirty members of the mob when he resisted their efforts to remove the prisoner from his automobile, said on Saturday night that he had made little headway in investigating. He expected to be joined tomorrow by Roy S. Foy of Sylvester, Solicitor General for this district, and steps probably will be taken to identify some of the mob members.
Sheriff Tyler and his deputies had arrested Levine in Mystic after an all-night search, and immediately started for jail here. In the centre of town the mob met the officers and demanded the prisoner. Sheriff Tyler refused to surernder him, and a crowd gathered about his car, finally succeeding in taking the man.
Slashed and Burned
With the prisoner in their hands, the mob set out in nearly 100 automobiles, for the scene of the crime. Later the body was found on a blazing pyre of logs. Reports said the man was beaten and his throat cut, after which the pyre was built, the logs and clothing of Leving

Judge Stricker about a year ago entered an order to disbar Redmond on charges investigated by a committee of the Hinds County Bar named by the judge Redmond appealed this order, and the State Supreme Court has reversed the entire case a shandled by the lower court, giving Dr. Redmond a clean bill of health. The disbarment order was based on alleged extortionate fees charged by Dr. Redmond for his services in settling several estates and an alleged agreement to have a man appointed as U.S. Marshal for the northern district of Mississippi.
Entirely Exonerated.
One case was the estate of the Jate O L. Coleman of Goblsland La, founder of Coleman College, whose estate, valued at $110,000, was located partly in Jackson, Chicago and Louisiana, the heirs being the widow, Mrs Mattie Coleman, and a daughter, Mrs Olive Coleman Thomas
Another concerned the recovery of property in Jackson for Lee Calvin Moore of Chicago from a white man, W T. Pate of Jackson
and Attorney Hiram Mann, white Republican leader and unsuccessful candidate for the Republican nomination for Congress in that district. Victory in the debate, which will be determined by a vote of the audience, will carry with it a silver loving cup which will be presented to the winner. The presentation will be made by Alderman Fred R. Moore who will act as chairman of the debate.
The subject of the debate is "Resolution. That capitalism affords to man a fuller and freer opportunity for complete self development than would be afforded him under Socialism."

With reference to securing the appointment of A. M. Storer as U. S.

force and bloodshed.
The people of this week will feel this aspect very strongly within the coming birth year. Changes in the dressiest matters and social affairs bring about more or less need for social re-adjustment according to strength of this aspect at birth. Those who had this same aspect at the time of birth will feel these variations more keenly than those who did not have this aspect at the time of birth.
Patience in all things, very good judgment, plenty of sleep and rest as well as a plain and simple diet with plenty of vegetables and fruit and as little meat as possible, or better still no meat-at all, will go along way to bring happiness and peace of mind to the people of this week in the coming birth year. They should not lend or borrow money or contrast to buy anything on the payments if these things can possibly be avoided.
The best time in February for the folks of this week will be for a few days before the 19th. The readers who would like to know how to get ahead and to understand the planetary influences that are now affecting them, should send the full name, the birthday, month year, hour and place with a self-addressed envelope and ten cents in stamps to Theurer, in care of The New York Aga, 230 West 1338 street, New York City.

Events of the next few weeks will bring about conditions that will cause loss of property by fire or explosions, and through the inability to collect or make payments when due, and those who have birthdays in the coming week will feel this aspect very strongly in real matters as well as in domestic affairs, especially if they are interested in real estate to any extent.
The owners of real estate who ask high prices, and those who do not use the golden rule in their real estate dealings usually feel this adverse aspect of Saturn square to Uranus. One needs only to read the news of the past few days to observe the numerous property losses through bombings.
Those who quarrel under this aspect usually incur severe physical injury through beatings from gangs or mobhs, and are quite often shot, even if those who quarrel are in the right. This aspect is rather provocative of race roots, and strong public resentment against disliked laws, or the representative of unjust laws. It is therefore apparent, that the best way to pass through this aspect, is to be very careful in the relations and dealings with strangers, and to be as just as possible in domestic affairs. This aspect destroys old and established customs that are outworn and useless, only to rebuild anew and for the betterment of the people. However, history is full of referents that have been brought about through

It was a memorable occasion for the nationally known minister delivered his sermon before several judges, several commissioners and other prominent persons. Prior to the sermon there were short talks by Dr. Harten and guests. In these talks Dr. Harten was hailed as a fiercest champion of his race. Dr. Hartens tong was "Prayer."
Visitor's Address Church.
Dr Harten called the audience to order and then introduced Harry Walkel, chief clerk of the Second district Municipal Court, who acted as master of ceremonies. In the course of his remarks Mr. Walkel urged every one present to support Dr Harten in every way.
The first speaker was Sheriff Aaron Jacoby. He stated that the Negro belonged to a great race and called the names of some whom he considered great, such as Frederick Denglass, Booker T, Washington, Dambar Roland Hayes and others. He demonstrated the fact that he was well informed with the facts about our group. He stated that there was Negro and the Jew, for Moses' wife was of our group, and Hagar, who was the wife of Abraham, was of our group.
Mr Jacob stressed the point that we should have respect for our people and learn our duty towards each other.
The speech of the sheriff was preceded by a scripture reading and a prayer by Deacon Allen 'Dillard.
Woman Preacher Heard.
The next speaker was the Rev. Miss Lillian D. Corbett, who spoke on "Echoes From the Church." She praised Dr Harten as a man who looked out for the interests of his people. He acted not only as a passive but as a watchman, and was a real man who would not sell out his race.
The next speaker was Irving Stingut leader of the Democrats in the State Assembly. He stated that he came from a people who were persecuted, and he is the friend of the Negro and in sympathy with him because of his persecution. He told of an incident where a hotel owner, a Negro member of the legislature was refused a room on the ground that the hotel was filled. He protested and then the colored legislator was accommodated.
Others who spoke were Judges Edward Winner, Sylvester Sabbatino Tax Commissioner James J. Sexton Commissioner of Sanitation Edward F. Cadley, Arthur G. Dore, chief clerk of the District Attorney's office Counsellors Stanley Douglas Thomas I. Higgins, Dr Paul L. Jones, and others. All lauded Dr Harten for his militant leadership and stressed the brotherhood of man. They praised Dr Harten for having a sermon under such auspices and stated that such meetings would tend to bring about a better understanding between the races.
Preached On "Prayer."
When Dr. Harten arose to deliver his sermon the spacious edifice was provided to the doors with people from New Jersey, Manhattan, and other points in the metropolitan area. His topic was "Prayer" and the text was Acts 4 13. He portrayed in a vivid manner the power of prayer and stated that if God praised more and served God he would get along much better.
During the course of his sermon, Dr. Harten took occasion to denounce Negro professional man who did not have time to give service and thus lost his work in some church. He stated that most of them seemed fore interested in a good time than any thing else. He also used the Negro school teacher and little time for church
After the sermon Dr. Harten introduced several prominent lawyers, the recruits and business men, and warned that they receive the full support of their group. Among them on the platform were J. S. Bates of New Rochelle, N. Y., and Dr. D. Jenkins head of the Jenkins Orphanage at Charleston, S. C. Next morning Dr. Harten will deliver his famous sermon to the Valley of Dry Bones."

Brooklyn Male Choral Club In Fine Program
One wise writer once asked the question "What's in a name?" well there is a great deal in a name if you live up to it, and this is what the Brooklyn Male Choral Club did on Friday evening, January 31, at the Elk's Crystal Ballroom. They are known as Brooklyn's premier Negro musical organization and they lived up to this in every sense of the word. While there were quite a number of music lovers out, it is regretted that with such a splendid program and with such fine singing there were not more persons present.
There were a number of excellent features connected with the singing. One was the fine control the director, W. H Brown, had over the singers. In most organizations of this sort, where the members have some conception of music, some show a tendency not to watch the director, but this was not the case here. The solo and chorus work showed the result of much training and the several hundred persons present showed their appreciation in a generous way.
After the program was concluded dancing was enjoyed. The music was provided by the Gay Pirateers led by Leon Williams. Dr W P Norcom, is president of the club. Other officers are: J L Mitchell, A J Loring, W Carpenter, Henry Walker, J H Snow, E D Pyre is the accompanist.
The ushers were Misses Lucy Kinney, Naomi Wood, Myrtle Waters, and Massilee Cromer

It was alleged by Pilloff, that Scott, who worked in a garage at 1839 Cropssey avenue where he parked his automobile, valued at $3,500, took the machine without permission.
Sack of Sugar and Gun Puts Brown In Prison
James Brown 34 of 1930 Dean street was taking his sugar down the street at 4:30 a.m. last Monday. The trouble was his sugar was in a 100-pound sack—and the sack was in a little wagon.
And when Patrolman Harry Egolf of the Liberty avenue station asked him what he had Brown is alleged to have pointed a revolver at the officer.
The patrolman applied his night-struck to Brown's wrist, picked up the fallen revolver and paraded Brown and his sugar to the police station.
In the New Jersey avenue court Brown thanked the officer for not shooting it out, and told Magistrate Harry Dale he thought the policeman, although in uniform, was a bootlegger or holdup man.
Magistrate Dale held Brown in $1,500 bail for Special Sessions Court on a charge of violating the Sultan law—and without bail for felonious assault
Detectives are investigating the source of the sugar, which Brown said he had obtained from a cousin at 10:58 Herkimer street.

Quite a number of prominent Negro men and women have been announced as being on the advisory committee that has been formed by Meier Steinbrink, leader of the Kings County Republican Organization. The personnel of the committee was given out on Monday, January 27.
It consists of 125 members, and is representative of every race and denomination in Brooklyn.
Jamaica L. L., N. Y.
The committee is composed of men and women who are regarded as being of the non-professional political type. The duties of the committee will be to assemble and discuss ways and means of strengthening the party in the county and carry out the plans of the leader, particularly in campaigns Leader Steinbrink is expected to call the first meeting of the committee in during the first week in March.
Four Negroes Named.
Here is the personnel of the committee who are Negroes. Fifth District—Mrs. Addie W. Hunton. She is a former president of the Empire State Federation of Women's Clubs and is one of the best known women of our group in the country. Eighth District—Frank H. Gilbert. He is former county leader and is one of Brooklyn's wealthiest Negroes. He is also nationally known, having been identified with the National Negro Business League, holding the office of Registrar for a number of years. Tenth District—Arthur Q. Marum. He is an undertaker and is the colored leader of this district. Eleventh District—The Rev. Henry H Proctor. He is pastor of the Nazarene Congregational Church

The list failed to show the name of any Negro from the Seventeenth Assembly District. This district has more Negro voters than any two other districts in the county. For the first time in its history a Democrat was elected to the Assembly from this district, and this is reported to have been due to Negroes voting the Democratic ticket. Other districts where there are quite a few Negro voters are not listed as having a place on this committee. They are the First, Sixth, Twenty-second and twenty-third districts. These districts have well organized district organizations which are affiliated with the Kings Counts Colored Republican Organization of which U. S. Assistant District Attorney Francis P. Giles is the president and county leader.

HOOVER DEMOCRATS BARRED.
The last Presidential election, in which four states of the Solid South slipped from their moorings of half a century and landed in the Republican column, has left a sea of troubles among Southern Democrats. Everybody is agreed that those Democrats who voted for Hoover were actuated by the desire to defeat Governor Smith, the regular Democratic candidate for the Presidency. This bolting of a regular Democratic candidate, regardless of its cause, is held by most of the regulars in the South to constitute high treason and to disqualify the bolter from becoming a candidate in the Democratic primaries for any office in the gift of the party.
Alabama has adopted this rule, thereby barring Senator Thomas J. Hefflin from running for the regular nomination to succeed himself in the United States Senate. Any action that would take Hefflin out of the Senate would probably be mailed with approval by the decent Senators of both parties, as he has violated every canon of good taste and propriety by his violent harangues inciting religious and racial intolerance. The only people who want Hefflin back in the Senate are the members of the Ku Klux Klan and the ignorant class of whites known as the "hill billies" in Alabama. As both of these classes of the population can vote, Hefflin may come back, despite the ruling of the regular Democracy.
Another Southern state to keep the Hoover Democrats from becoming candidates in this year's primaries is Texas, where the state committee barred the holders of the 1928 ticket. At the same time, it was decided to allow voters who did not support the national ticket of that year to participate in the primary this summer. This was designed to allow the holders to come back and vote for the regular candidates, although their names might not appear on the ticket. This ruling is calculated to affect the candidacy of Senator Thomas J. Love who is desirous of running for Governor, but who would be barred from the primary because of his support of Hoover.
While only four of the Southern states recorded their votes in the Hoover column, the revolt against Smith was apparent in the falling off of the Democratic vote in several other states. If the same tactics are adopted, of barring the Smith bolters from running in the Democratic primaries in all these states, the line of cleavage in the hitherto solid South will be deepened, as none of these aspirants for office will take their exclusion meekly. As Hefflin threatens to do, they will probably run as independents and invite the aid of the Republicans, when that party fails to pump candidates of its own.
It would seem as if Alfred E. Smith's candidacy might, after all, prove the wedge to split the Solid South.
WHY THE SOUTH IS TOUCHY.
Heward Brown who is an outspoken if not always discreet, champion of the under dog, whether that object is represented by a black Republican or Red Communist, has again got himself into trouble by spoofing the South. If there is one thing that the South cannot see or hear any levity in discussing, it is the subject of the Negro. So when Mr. Brown, in the course of a reply to a North Carolina newspaper, which was subject him to a course of "silent contempt" for some previous indiscretion, indulged in a little spoofing, naturally raised more than a little dust.
The gist of his offending was when he said, in refuting the charge that he was antagonistic to the South: "Many whom the whole country should delight to honor have come and are still coming from that section. Of those whom I have privileged to meet myself I think offhand of Booker Washington, Laurence Stallings and Roland Hayes."
Mr. Brown in defending his attempt atuild facetiousness, maintained his assent in the following fashion, at the same setting, forth some of the adverse comments aroused from angry Southerners.

"If there is one thing that the South cannot see or hear any levity in discussing, it is the subject of the Negro. So when Mr. Brown, in the course of a reply to a North Carolina newspaper, which was subjecting him to a course of 'silent contempt' for some previous indiscretion, indulged in a little spoofing, he naturally raised more than a little dust.
The gist of his offending was when he said, in refuting the charge that he was antagonistic to the South: "Many whom the whole country should delight to honor have come and are still coming from that section. Of those whom I have been privileged to meet myself I think offhand of Booker Washington, Laurence Stallings and Roland Hayes." Mr. Brown in defending his attempt at mild facetiousness, maintained his assertion in the following fashion, at the same time setting forth some of the adverse comments aroused from angry Southerners.
I think it might be maintained in all seriousness that Dr. Washington was deservedly one of the most influential men of his
time and community, Roland Hayes is undeniably a concert singer of the first rank. And yet I think that the facetious intent of naming two Negroes and one white man should have been fairly obvious. Instead, a large number of correspondents have, in it often grimly, apologized. One is likely a characteristic of angry letters is that the writer is often a little, muddled as to what was said. R. K. G. wants to know why I left out Washington, Jefferson, Patrick Henry and Robert E. Lee. It's true that I grow more sedentary, but I can hardly be blamed for not getting up early enough to meet any of these men. R. E. writes, "I was doing your job in today, I recalled a word that I had almost forgotten. That word is 'dannyankee.' If you're so darn smart why aren't you, rich?". H. C. B. protests, against "heading the list of Southerners who have achieved with the name of Booker Washington". W. C. K. says that he intends to take his advertising out of the Memphis Press Scimitar, which seems a very roundabout thing of thinking. A program of sound right there is no place for a rat of the Brown ilk." he adds
Now, surely most of this is a little out of proportion, and I think I know the reason. I am strengthened in, my feeling that many people in the South are wrong on many phases of the Negro problem. People who know down deep in their hearts that they are right could never be so touchy.
We think that Mr. Broun has discovered or perhaps merely stumbled-upon, a great truth when he said that the touchiness of the people of the South in reference to the Negro is because they know that in many respects they are wrong in their views.
It is the knowledge that they are practising injustice in all their relations to the black race that makes the whites so sensitive on this subject. And much of the hatred and intolerance felt against the blacks is because of the guilty knowledge of wrongs committed against them.
The sensitiveness of the white South on the subject of race relations is the sensitiveness of guilt. The whites have an attitude of racial superiority to justify and little or nothing to justify it with but brute force.
A notable example of what can be accomplished by the concerted effort of the women of the race was furnished in the celebration of the twenty-fifth anniversary of the founding of the West 137th Branch of the Young Women's Christian Association. Formed in a private house in January, 1905, with no full time secretary and an expense budget of a little over four hundred and fifty dollars for the first year, the present year finds the branch in a half million dollar home with a budget amounting to nearly two hundred thousand dollars. It was fitting, that healthy growth of this work among young women should be celebrated with a banquet, an exhibit and anniversary tea, a mass meeting, a historical pageant and other activities.
A review of the history of the branch shows that its progress was steady, but not marked by any too precipitate haste. It was significant that the first periodical subscribed to was The Age, and that the first newspaper article released for publication was prepared by Miss Scott and Miss Bowles for that paper. It was a little over a year when the project of starting a building fund for a permanent home was first mentioned in the minutes of the organization. That was soon followed by a bazaar to raise funds for the work with a plan to secure necessary publicity for advertising purposes. Classes were opened in sewing and cooking, and a housekeeper employed. Before this Miss Eva D. Bowles had come to the branch as the first general secretary.
After moving to a new home in 1907 the first telephone was installed and the first singing class opened. Shortly before this the first employment agency license was secured, so that the branch was in a position not only to train young women and girls for useful work, but also to secure them places where they might become self-supporting members of the community. This was a practical phase of the enterprise which enabled it to help those who were in most need of such assistance. Later came the development of dormitory accommodations as well as cafeteria service, all of which filled a want long felt in the community.
The sterling character and steadfastness of the women who undertook this extension of X. W. C. A. work among our group were manifested by the fact that during these twenty-five years the branch has had but four chairmen of the committee of management. The same treasurer has looked after the finances during that period in the person of Mme. V. E. Scott, to whom many tokens of appreciation have been paid for her quarter century of faithful service. As an example of what can be accomplished by the women of the group, through concerted action and persistence in welldoing, the Y. W. C. A. Branch has an importance and a significance reaching far beyond its own sphere of activities, useful as those continue to be.
LOCAL POLITICAL PROBLEMS. There are several objects to be served by active participation in politics, according to the ends sought by those who are actively interested. The average voter who is earning his living in some gainful pursuit has only the interest of a
member of the community in good government and in obtaining a fair share of public improvements for the section in which he resides. In this respect the residents of Harlem have much to be thankful for although there is always room for improvement in existing conditions. On the whole, the section has received a fair share of public improvements, with good service on the part of city agencies which protect the health and peace of the community.
The professional politician, however, looks for patronage plums, which are in a way necessary to build up a political organization and to help roll up a big vote on election day. Among Republicans little has been done by the county leaders to build up the party among the Negro voters. What has been accomplished in that line in the two districts where they are in a majority, has been largely due to the initiative of their own leaders and to intensive efforts by volunteer workers. Through this means a healthy organization has been effected, with the result that two Aldermen and two Assemblymen were elected from their ranks last fall.
In Brooklyn where a reorganization of the Republicans of Kings county is in progress, with Meyer Steinbrink as the new county leader recognition has been promised to all elements of the party. Negro Republicans were urged to support their leaders and to cooperate in the reorganization of the party. Representatives of the race were included on the committee having charge of the reorganization, and the workers were urged to labor among the young people and the women. As Republicanism in Kings county has been waning for several years, while the voters in the borough have been increasing, some plan of reorganization on a broad scale was necessary.
On the Democratic side the situation among the Negro voters who support its local candidates is a trifle perturbed. While political recognition has been sought by these voters it has been intimated that no political plums will be handed out until certain questions of of leadership are settled, and it is decided whether the central organization of the United-Colored Democracy has outlived its usefulness. It is contended by some of these local Democrats that the Negroes who are allied with that party should join the district clubs, and as their strength may develop be accorded co-leaders as executive members of the county committee. The preserving of the United Colored Democracy has been viewed as a matter of sentiment against the urge of practical politics.
Until this question 'of the proper policy to be pursued in working for the spread of Democracy among Negro voters is settled, little is expected in the way of patronage. In the meanwhile the quota of civic improvements for Harlem is not expected to suffer.
GETTING OUT OF HAITI.
Last week the United States Senate voted for an appropriation of fifty thousand dollars to enable President Hoover to have an investigation made of conditions in Haiti, without endorsing his idea of a commission for that purpose. Senator Blaine of Wisconsin, an insurgent Republican, who has bitterly opposed the commission idea sought to disparage the President's plan by the inference that the commission was unwarranted and that the President should have all the information already made available.
Senator Swanson of Virginia, Senator Norris of Nebraska and several others supported the resolution and favored getting out of Haiti. Senator Oddie, Republican of Nevada, who was on a commission to study Haiti in 1922 and has visited there every year since, declared that the United States had accomplished a great humanitarian work there. Senator Connellly of Texas said he had received complaints concerning the military government, and charged that Haiti "is now governed by military satraps," which nobody could deny.
Senator Borah, chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee, declared that he had reason to believe that the President desired to get out of Haiti. He added that it was a difficult task to do so, and the President desired fully to familiarize himself with conditions and get out of Haiti with honor to this government. That is a pretty hard proposition for the President or any one else to solve, as the question of honor is hardly consistent with any of the phases of the military occupation of Haiti, the subversion of its government and the establishment of military rule with the aid of marines and machine guns. The less said about honor in this connection the better.
There does not seem to be much difference of opinion as to the expediency of the United States getting out of Haiti. The question is as to how that can be accomplished without acknowledging that this country at no time had any just cause for entering or remaining there.
The argument of brute strength, the superiority of machine guns and bombing planes over machetes and muskets, was the only reason why the American marines were able to overcome the Haitians who sought to defend their country from foreign invasion. President Hoover has an appropriation of fifty thousand dollars, if the House consents, to devise some machinery to get the marines out of Haiti with honor, if possi-

White Friends To Race
Editor of The New York Age:
The record of continuous and faithful service, on behalf of our group, by Dr. George Foster Peabody is a thing of inspiration and beauty. Dr. Peabody is the senior member of the board of trustees of Hampton Institute. The same year of my ordination to the faculty 1887, Governor Fitzhugh Lee of Virginia appointed the writer a curator of that institution, representing that commonwealth. I can not forget how graciously Dr. Peabody welcomed me to a seat among the trustees. How many years before that time, how many years before that time, how forty-three years of continuous service on the Board of that great institution is well worthy of special emphasis.
Some of the dearest friends our race has had were born in the Southland. Dr. Peabody, was born in Georgia. George Peabody, was born in Pennsylvania, who, after the Civil War, founded a "mix" theological school, the Philadelphia Divinity School, wherein colored men were trained for the Episcopal ministry, was also a native of Georgia. Just about the time William Hillman began to walk through the streets of Boston, by a mob, and had to be put in jail for safe keeping, down on the Easternshore in Maryland on a Sunday morning, in a white church, a Negro, William Douglass, was being ordained to the ministry by the white Bishop Stone, who was born in Somerset. We are approaching "Negro History Week," and such celebrations are incomplete without a tender an affectionate appreciation of our friends of the noble white Americans, of which the three above mentioned are assemble in us to celebrate the benefactors of the white "group who contributed so largely in changing the atmosphere wherein we were able to achieve.

Objectionable Phrase
Editor of The New York Age:
In certain quarters there is wonder as to what peculiar variety of complex prompts your Boston correspondent to insist on introducing the term "Afric" in reporting happenings among the good colored folks. Boston is identity. What appeared at to be little jobs more serious with the apparent consent of The Age directors to not only permit the use of the term but to grace and dignify it with a capital letter.
Both in dictionary and in slang the white writers have furnished terms and epithets for all possible reasons for or all possibilities, and if the only authority for the use of the word is a desire to associate the colored American with some foreign and unknown" Fatherland, the idea is a ridiculous piece of Garveyism, as much out of place as to call white Americans "Europs" or some other slang. Boston, Age editorial of November 23, on the use of the word "darky" loses its force when in the following issue the said cor-

Roosevelt, when he was Assistant Secretary of the American Navy, boasted that he wrote a new constitution for the unhappy republic, to serve the American occupation, which probably did not cost this country as much, though it may have cost the Haitians much more.
But the question is, How to get out of Haiti, with honor or without?

The Harmon Award To Major Robert R. Moton
(From The N. Y. Times)
Booker Washington has in Major Robert Moton a worthy successor as principal of Tuskegee Institute and as a leader among his people, who has been a hero to him of the Harmon Foundation's gold medal for distinguished achievement. He has won it in his own right and not merely as the incumbent of a position which his predecessor made known to the world. Major Moton has carried on with a modestty that is coupled with fearlessness, with fearless story of courage than which tells of his 'facing the threat of death for a principle.
There has been in the program of some colored people a break with the Booker Washington school of thought. To that dissentent view Dr. Du Bous gave voice at the Meeting of the National Association for the Advancement of the Colored People of the United States night. It was the rushing of "wristings" to which an ancient prophet refers, in the land beyond the rivers of Ethiopia for it suggests a mysterious, omnine moving among the colored races of the world in which, as he held, the Negroes of the United States must join. Against such a movement Major Moton—and his institution stand strongly. They are laying the foundation of the only kind of development for a race that has suffered from a bondage to both nature and man.
Stephen Benet describes vividly the black-leaved 'tree of the shadow,' shaped like a yoke, which grew it blitched out the stars, but the wood it blitched out the stars, and have broken forth into singing and have literally clapped their hands in what the free labor of the Negro has brought forth—labor which is "the universal passport into whatever kingdoms of the spirit are waiting for him."
DR. MOTOR OF TUSKEGEE (From The N. Y. World)
The Harmon Foundation's gold medal and honorarium of $1,000 awarded biennially for achievements in the field of race relations, goes to the University of the Principal of Tuskegee Institution. The honor has been worthily bestowed. To fill the place once occupied by Booker T. Washington is no easy undertaking, but Dr. Moton has met its requirements effectively and without orientation, showing the need for a sense of tense tacit and organizing ability which characterized his predecessor.
Though the Harmon Foundation has made numerous awards to Negroes for distinguished achievements in education, business and the arts, the Harmon Foundation has that its highest award, that for contributions to the betterment of racial relations, has been made to a Neoer. To preside over Tuskegee Institute, established in the heart of the black of Alabama and devoted to the industrial development of its residents, presents problems of racial relations of a peculiar sort. For the sharpest criticism of the educational system advocated by Booker Washington and Dr. Moton has come from members of his own race, and they had just used their policies to their own people as well as to Southern white folk.

COMMENTS BY THE AGE EDITORS ON SAYINGS OF OTHER EDITORS
Noting with regret the retirement of Julian Harris and his wife from the ownership and management of the Columbus, Ga., Enquirer-Sun, the Minnesota Tuwin City Harald said:
The Enquirer-Sun, during the reign of the Harries, fought the Klan to a standstill, fought lynching and conducted a general campaign for a square deal to all men regardless of color. Of course the Harries were a "little before their time" in the south. They represented forcefully in the war with South and the Bleses won't see. The Enquirer-Sun was not a financial success, but who can say that the Harries in their courageous journalistic trail are not successes:
The Herald truly said the Enquirer-Sun was "one of the "few southern white dallies that was intelligently devoted to interests of tolerance." This editorial courage was recognized by the award of the Pulitzer prize to the Georgia journalist some two or three years ago. He is the son of Joel Chandler Harris, well-known as the author of the Uncle Remus stories.
Talking about the "Chances for a Congressman" being elected by the members of the race in St. Louis, the St. Louis American said:
Eive serious attempts have been made here in St. Louis to secure a seat in Congress by the Negroes of St. Louis. First in 1910, when Dr. C. H. Phillips was a Republican candidate in the primary, up through 1928 when Joseph L. McLemore was a democratic candidate. In between were the race of Robert O. Wows on the Farm Labor ticket to the candidate in the Republican in the 1922 primary, and the double-barrel blank in 1926 when Homer G. Phillips and George L. Vaughn both also "ran" in the Republican primary. In each instance the Hon. L. C. Dyer was the winner.
Now is the beginning of the final chapter of the two decades of striving for national representation by the Negro voters of St. Louis. After the coming election the new governor appointment will have wiped out the present 12th Congressional district, so pronounced Negro in its constitutency. St. Louis will have two instead of three Congressmen and you can leave it to the Legislature to make up the new district so that the Negro electorate to St. Louis fails to elect a Negro to Congress in 1930 it will be sometime in 1940 perhaps before another favorable chance arrives—perhaps. 1950. The St. Louis editor warned that it will take a strong candidate to win Mr. Deyer's seat and put the hemless query: "Will the leaders endeavor to find that candidate, or will they play the usual game of crabs in a paill?"
Making a plea for "Using the Public Radio," the Florida Sentinel of Jacksonville argued in the following strain:
The Municipal Radio Station, generally known as WJAX, is owned by all the taxpayers of Jacksonville, black as well as white. And it is unfortunate that city officials, to whom the station has been committed in trust for the people, have not been fair enough to give Negroes an opportunity since the installation of the station to appeal before the Mike.
In practically all of the leading southern cities, where radios are installed, Negroes have appeared and rendered creditable programs. Many of these stations are privately owned, yet where the Negro has contributed through his tax money a share to the erection of a station, he is denied all use of it. even without the usual excuse that it is against the segregation law.
It may be well for some Negro musical organization to make appli-
ments of the city government. Among them were the following: 6 clerks grade 2 (male) were appointed at $1,200 a year. 5 engineer inspectors at $2,130 a year. 8 clerks, Grade 1, were appointed at $1,014 a year. 50 workers in labor positions. 60 substitute Post Office clerks and carriers were appointed to New York Post Offices. 5 type-writer-copiers at $1,080 a year, and 4 stenographers, Grade 2 at $1,260 a year. February is scheduled to be a great month for clerical examinations of the executive description. Watch the column for recently edited news on Civil Service examinations. The first of the list of clerical examinations is the one for clerk, Grade 2, with knowledge of the Competitor. File your application now. If you want to go into the Civil Service, 1930 is the year to do it. Take advantage of the many opportunities here referred to you this year. Watch this column for special announcements.
New York City's Health
Health conditions in New York City for the week ending January 4 showed a continued high pneumonia death rate, with 246 deaths and 417 use cases. The annual death rate rose to 14 per thousand, there being 1,640 deaths reported. To offset this loss, however, there were 2,427 babies born during the same period. Thirty three deaths in automobile accidents were reported in the winter season, a new high record. The Metropolitan nine in Brooklyn, and six each in the Bronx and Queens. The average number of deaths for the past six years was 1,582, as the average 1,640 this year, and the annual death rate was 1,387 as against 14.

cation to the announcer or the commissioner for the privilege of moderating a program. The Sentinel did not readily believe that Mr. T. Imeson, the city commissioner in charge, would refuse directly to lay part of the citizenry to tell a story of progress and achievement over the publicly owned station.
The exclusion of Negro artists and performers from broadcasting over the municipal radio of Judsonville should be resented by all listeners-in as a serious omission it deprives them of the privilege of hearing the popular colored candidates and singers of Spiritual Jacksonville may not realize what it is mis-sing.
Endorsing the opinion expressed by Col. Sherrill, city manager of Cincinnati, that public sentiment seemed against the idea of a city supported Negro hospital, the Cincinnati said:
Colonel Sherill's judgment is curate, his frankness, commendable and courageous. We have no doubt that that Mr. Bookman would have the same opinion had he been able to get the opinion of unbiased color officials. On all matters of city segregation the only Negro endorsers are the who will profit by them! In Chicago go and all northern cities, the only Negro hospitals are private. The fall of the city manager in Cleveland can be largely attributed to the work of the Negro councilman, Negro councilman to put over municipally owned Negro hospital. The city manager favored it. As a result, the Negro vote went to the Republican organization. Three Negro Councilmen were elected, the Negro hospital advo- defeated. City Manager Hopkins fired. Separate public institutions in Northern cities constitute a dangerous proposition, especially, for politicians who sponsor such segregation.
Discussing the plight of Chicago as "A Bankrupt City," vice ridden and crime controlled, the Chicago Sunday Bee said:
In this chaotic state of affair thousands of employees have been dismissed, including policemen and city firemen. We see by this situation that cities as well as individual reap what they sow. Under the present city administration law and order have broken down. For many years vice, "policy" and gambling took possession of our districts. Protections by decent citizens went up tightly, leading to colour and white political leaders were responsible were not remedied. Property values were decreased by the invasion of vice of our best residential districts. Thousands of people were dismissed from place of employment because of the political conditions that permitted vice and diseases to flourish in our zone and because of the entitlements of graudy pleasures permitted to flourish unrestrained sapped their minds less to their employers next day. Our city is bankrupt in morals as well as finances.
Over taxation and the political juggling of tax assessments have caused thousands of Negro property owners to lose their real estate holdings. The Negro citizens have been hardest hit by the reaction of the people against the crookedness, of the power that be betrayed our workers as, well, as hopes.
The Bee thinks that Chicago Negroes have learned their lessons even though it is almost too late to reform. Cutting loose from the leaders who have betrayed them was advocated as a means of redemption.
Referring to the subject of infant and maternal mortality, the Washington Tribune pointed out what it termed an alarming condition shown by the following figures:
The latest official figures on this matter is a bulletin from the Children's Bureau with a survey for 1924-25 and 20. This survey shows that the maternal mortality for colored mothers was 14.6 per 1000 births, over the three-year period while it was only 7.3 with the white mothers. Exactly twice as many Negro mothers in Washington from childbirth as white, which is the highest in the City. City report shows. Why is this so? What society or organization will endeavor to lower this alarming situation here? The infant mortality here for the same period shows an average of 1218 colored babies to 1000 births, under 1.90 year old, died while only 65.2 white babies per 1000 births died over the same period. The New York report Neats of the fact that New York City was the first only in the United States to give especial attention to the losses of material and infant mortality supervenes of mid-wives, small private hospitals visiting nurses and physicians serving in labor cases.
A question for Washington may arise as to how far is it possible for the Health Department to control the standards of work of the Washington hospitals, and should responsibility for this be regarded as one of its functions? Should the voluntary or privately funded health and welfare agencies assume responsibility for developing maternity care in the District? Is there different classes of clients close in the District? If so, is there why are there twice as many deaths among Negro mothers as there are among white mothers and why is the infant mortality of Negroes nearly twice that of white? These are questions which should demand the attention of welfare agencies and the medical fraternity in particular.

NO ORGANIZED BASEBALL IN EAST FOR 1930, ACCORDING TO REPORTS
There will be no organized League baseball among the colored clubs of the East this year, according to reports coming from Philadelphia. According to these reports the Hilldale Pad and grounds in Darby Pal and Edward Bowie will not be at the helm again. The Bacharach Giants are also reported as seeking a new owner and Cumberland Posey of the Homestead Grays has let it be known that his club will not join the league this season. They will play as an independent organization through Pennsylvania, Ohio and West Virginia.
With these three clubs missing only three members of last season, league—the Lincoln Giants, the Cuban Stars and the Baltimore Blar Sox—would be left for an organization. It is not likely that they will be able to get, new clubs to take the place of the three missing, mebers Despite the gloomy outlook for 1930 league season, the Lincoln Gu

35th St. Y Wins Game
As Jamaica Defaults
The much heralded Jamaica Panther—135th Street Y Basketball game proved a complete fiasco last Friday night at Jamaica when Jamaica refused to complete the game with ten minutes left to play. 135th Street was leading 14-12 when the game stopped. Rather than have a star player disqualified at this juncture of the game the Panther coach chose to forfeit it. Buddy Walker, Panther captain, collected nine of his team's total points despite his being a marked man. Jamaica will play a return game in New York in March.

ants are going forward with preparations to make this their banner, year. Manager John Henry Lloyd plans to give most of his time, to his managerial duties and has signed a new first baseman, George Giles, formerly of the Kansas City Monarchs. Giles weighs 190 pounds is said to have been the best first base man in the West in the 1928 season. He was a holdout last season.
Two new pitchers have been signed to assist Rector and Holland, while Rojo and Beckwith are expected to do the catching Billy Yancey will be bace at shortest, but arrangements as to their baseman await the return of Bill Riggins from Cuba. Ruggins broke his leg several weeks ago and 'Manager Lloyd is waiting for him to return to certain whether he will be able to start the season in April.
"Turkey" Stearnes, formerly of Detroit, will be the new centerfielder, with Charlo Smith back at right and Naman Washington at left.
Phil Edwards Sets New Mark In Last Race For N. Y. Univ.
Running his last race for New York University, Phil Edwards, captain of last year's N. Y. U. track team and holder of three championships, ran Ray Conger of Iowa into the boards at the St. Joseph C. C. games in Newark Armory Wednesday night, January 29. Edwards said his validictory to N. Y. U. with a burst of speed unparalleled in the Newark drill shed, setting an armory record of 2.14 4-5 for the 1000 yard race.
There was never any question about Edwards winning ultimately. He took the lead at the crack of the gun and stayed there. Conger, the same chap who upset Paavo Nurmil, Edwin Wide, Eimo Purje and Otto Peltzer, was no match for the determined colored star.
He challenged Edwards in the middle part of the race, coming from third place to second, but the answer was increased ankling for Edwards. A strong finishing sprint over the last of seven laps was more than a match for for the famous 'Conger "kick"' Conger had all he could do to win second place and Edwards the tape a dozen vards in the lead. Because of the three year limit rule Edwards was declared ineligible to compete with the N. Y. U. team after February 1.
Morgan College Five Beats West Virginia
Baltimore. Md.-The Morgan College basketball team defeated the West Virginia Yellowjackets by a score of 40-29. From the outset it was apparent that the local team was much the better and the game was more a warm-up for the coming Howard-Morgan attraction in New York than a real contest. The score was 23-12 in favor of Morgan at the end of the game. The Morgan College boys have only been defeated once this season—by the Renaissance, professional champions of New York. They beat the Howard University five last week by a score of 41-33.

In the last minute of play, Pennington, State Center, tied the score with a goal from the center of the field. On the next play he was given opportunity to win on a foul but he missed the free throw. Thus extending the game for five minutes.
Hunt replaced Cotton at the beginning of the overtime period but was unable to break the tie. Cotton has returned to the game after three minutes and it was his shot from center that broke the tie. An foul shot made the final score 27—23.

Miss N. D. Jenkins, coach of the Alcorn team surprised the local followers of the hardwood pastime by putting on the floor one of the best drilled teams ever seen at Tuskegee.

At The Lafayette Theatre
The finest night club revue that has ever come to Harlem is being shown at the Lafayette Theatre this week. This is the Club Plantation Revue, whose phenomenal success has been the main topic of conversation in theatrical and entertainment circles.
The Club Plantation Revue was staged by Clarence Robinson. The cast of the Club Plantation Revue is more than exceptional. It includes Eddie Rector, one of the world's greatest dancers; Celeste Coles, a newcomer to Harlem, whose golden voice has rarely been equaled in this city; Peter and Peaches, Shelton Brush and Bob Williams, Alma Sittard and Joe Attlett. This for revue was played by the famous Missourians. This is their first appearance at the Lafayette Theatre.
The feature picture for the week is Richard Barthelmess' newest talking sensation, "Young Nowheres."
Renaissance Theatre
"Fast Company" with Jack Oakie and Evelyn Brent, is the feature at the Renaissance Theatre this Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. It is a story of the capture of Broadway by a wise-cracking countryboy, based on the stage hit by Ring Lardner and George M Cohan. Through it all runs a delightful romance interspersed with plenty of comedy, gags, smart cracks and stirring situations. Here is an ideal entertainment See and hear it and you will enjoy having done so.
"Tanned Legs" with Ann Pennington and June Clyde comes to the Renaissance Saturday, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, February 8, 9, 10 and 11. This is an outstanding, all-talking, all-singing sensation in which youth struts its stuff and causes one to both ponder and smile.
Songs, dances and bothing beauties are the elements out of which this just-serious-enough drama is built. There are thrills aplenty and enough legs to give Ziegfeld nightmares. It is a sparkling musical comedy write indirectly for the screen, Ann Pennington, famous dancing star of George White's Scandals, is seen and heard in several speciality dance numbers and five superb original songs are also heard. Commencing Saturday, February 15 "Rio: Rita," one of Broadway's biggest hits comes to the Renaissance for one week.
At The Alhambra Theatre
"Dumb Dora" is captivating everybody at the Alhambra Theatre this week. As pretty little Dora, versatile Artie Cain seems so stupid at the start and turns out to be so clever at the finish. Percy Verwaven, that excellent actor, who made so great a name for himself in "Dorsay," is an Englishman with a title making desperate efforts to marry a girl with a fortune but makes a mess of it. Hilda Oiffley is an ambitous society woman of the "striver" type trying to marry her daughter Josephine Campbell, into the English nobility. Thomas Moseley has the unusual past of the "grandpop" ninety years old and never leaving his invalid chair in which he whewled himself about the stage at an amusing rate of speed.
"Royal Flush" the route starts with the appearance of all the girls, including some beauties not seen before. They emerge one by one from an enormous pack of playing cards. Each one represents a card from the deck and has her own little introductory rhyme.
Finally the ace appears in the person of Manda, Randolph who is playing her last week at the Alhambra before leaving for Europe, and is greeted with tumultuous applause. John Lee Long and Digneat Markham lead the comedy Rose Landers and Lillian Young both popular night club entertainers, score in songs. Two souls Burns and Mendes, almost wear out their dancing shoes.
The picture star is Paxta Ruth Muller in "Whispering Winds"
Next Week's Show.
It will be glad news that Mantan Moreland, the lovable little comedian who went from the Alhambra to "Blackbirds," comes back to his Harlem admirers. After Broadway, and Paris and Chicago Mantan comes right back to the Alhambra the same friendly and unspoiled little gentleman, and because of added experience, funnier than ever. Also there will be Joyce and Rookie Days, leading night club favorites whose fun, singing and dancing move at lightning speed. "The Shame Girl," founded on the sensational Gillette murder case, should be a vital drama. It tells of a pretty factors girl who pass the price of folls with her life. Jack Hoxie will be the picture star in "Back-Fire."
At The Odeon Theatre
The blackmailer is one of the world's slimest creatures. The story of one desperate convict and blackmailer who held the fate of a beautiful girl in his hands is vividly portrayed in the all-talking murder mystery drama, "Blackmail" which will be presented at the Odeon Theatre Thursday and Friday February 6th and 27th. The girl was the sweetheart of one of Scotland Yard's finest detectives. He also suspected his sweetheart of murder and was born between love and duty. The way in which he brought happiness to Scotland Yard makes one of the most fascinating of talking picture entertainments.
"Blackmail" is part of a double feature program which will be presented at the Odeon at these two days. The second picture will be "Blue Series" as tender mance as ever tugged at one's heart-strings.
DRAMA
Gloria Swanson's first talking picture, "The Trespasser," which was the cause of considerable comment and enjoyed an unusually successful run on Broadway, is to be given a popular price run in the northern part of our community when it will be shown at the Roosevelt-for four days starting Saturday, February.8th.

modern drama. It tells the story of a girl who fights the attempts of her wealthy father-in-law to take her son from her and who wins out against almost insurmountable obstacles. It is gorgeously, but magnificent settings, boasts, of an excellent sitting cast, and gives picture fans an unusual treat when Miss Swanson sings "Love", the theme song, and "Serenade". Every member of the family should see "The Trespasser."
For the last half of the week, the Roosevelt's talking screen will have Janet Gaynor in "Christina". This is presented as a special holiday program starting Lincoln's Birthday, for three days only.

ACTIVITIES AMONG
UNION MUSICIANS
By PERCIVAL OUTRAM
The seriousness ce the position of
musicians, members of Local 802,
who are suffering through lack of
employment, caused by the influx of
mechanical ‘devices, has caused Mr
‘Edward Canavan, chairman of the
local, to invoke’ the wrath of the
‘gods’ on those musicians who are
MYortunate enough to be employed
‘regularly, and yet accept radio or
vitaphone, engagements which con-
Jhicts at thmes, with their steady ene
gagement,
agit ib customary, st appears. {rom
Mr. Canavan's charge, that 2, subst
tute is hired to cover the first act
or overture at the theatre in whic.
the musician is employed regularly;
when the musician comes in from the
radio engagement the substitute relin-
Quishes the seat, is "paid a few dol-
lass,” and goes’ home praying for a
similar chance other days of the
week, .
This paltry payment’ "is in viola-
tion of the price list, as a substitute
must receive FULL’ PRICE of the
engagement. Any member found
goilty ... may be fined up to
$1,000, "I" cannot express myseli
forcibly enough aginst such contemp-
tuble tactics employed by men caning
good money under oresent unemploy-
ment conditions. Such members are
not worthy of 2 card im the Federa-
tion”
Strong words, maybe, but fitting
to the occasion.
ede £ive an idea of how the loca:
realizes the acuteness of the situation
At mught be recalled that at’ the re-
cent election a much larger force of
men was employed than heretofore
to perform the duties incidental to
voting of members. In other years,
fone group would relieve the other
Sroup until the completion of the
election returns. Thus a small group
would colléct fat individual cheeks.
This year. no relieving was per-
mitted. “Each man worked a given
time. This allowed him a union
day's pay. and enabled a much larg-
er number of musxrans ‘to earn 3
day's pay at no added aggregate cos:
to the local.

the men, which eventually put Davia
fou the street, all the other men re-
maining on the Job. On Davd’s try-
ing to take away his books of music
he was prevented, and the interven:
tion of Local 802 was sought by
Dand, who was instructed by Mr
Canavan, it 1s alleged, to return on
‘the Job. as surely if tus personal ser-
vice was satisfactory for three
months he could not have been de-
ficient in his duties.

The celebration planned to mem-
orize the 25th anniversary of the
New Amsterdam Musical Association
at their headquarters on Monday,
January 27, at 3 p. m., was unfor-
tunately delayed, owing to the death
of a close relative of the president
‘of the Association.
Certain schedules were laid out by
"President Thompson for the occasion,
but owing to his enforged absence op
to 5 o'clock, no, start” was’ made in
calling the large assemblage of mu-
sicians to order.
Having remained at the N. A.M.
A. until 6 o'clock, and having’ du-
lties elsewhere, we, before leaving
the premises, were informed that
some notes would be taken and
sent or given to the writer cqn-
cerning the festivities of the 25th
anniversary of the association, Up-
to date, we have not received any
communication from Mr. Robinson,
[the vice-president, who volunteered
‘this service, or from Mr. Bill Rob-
jinson, secretary, who was deputed
by the vice president to author the
notes.
To personal visits were made for
them ‘without avail.” Anyway, we
behevé everybody was happy and
enyoyed the good things prepared
tor the occasion.
We noted the rooms were groom-
ed for the occasion, and new lights
had been installed. The combina-

parted members could better view

ark, No J, the juurnahistte proies-
sion by Lester Walton of the New
York World, and) the business
world by such a large number of
successtil persons that space wall
not perme their names just here
Other teatures that contributed
to tite fcleny of the alias were
the exquisite manner in which the
ball room was decorated, the hine-
tograph pictures, which ‘represent:
ed ialling hyacmthywand roses, and
the serving on a bullet luncheon
