A REAL HOME PAPER Dependable! Reliable! Progressive! Of Local and National Scope VOL. 43. No. 24. Explosion of Whiskey Building at 1635 Injures 30, Damage Twelve Colored School ChAdults Injured; 2,000 C Safety From Building: Twelve Negro school chigro adults were among the t that were injured Thursday when an explosion in a one-st 1635-37 Dean street, near Brooklyn, about 9.20 a. m., bac ture, smashed nearly all the of Public School No. 83, across the 2,000 other school children Most of the pupils at this schools are Negroes and Italians. All of the children were led from the building without any panic. According to the police the explosives in the building being charged with illuminating gas that had been tapped to operate a whiskey still. Looking For "Wilson." At first the police placed the three most seriously injured colored persons under technical arrest after they had been taken to the hospital, but they were later released, and now the police are looking for a colored man known only as "Wilson." They are convinced he was the individual that rented the apartment on which the explosion occurred. The three most seriously injured were George Calhoun Brooks, 1637 Dean street, street, posse fracture of the skull, St. Mark's Hospital. Ella Graham Brooks, 35; his wife, 1637 Dean street, internal injuries; St Mary's Hospital. Levi Graham, Io, her son, 1637 Dean street, fractured leg and arm; Kings County Hospital. Innocent Victims. Police say that this family, who lived in the same building but in the next address, 1037 Dean street, were innocent victims of the explosion. Of the 2,000 children in the school at the time, about 450 were on the Dean street-side of the building. Every window on this side was smashed, the force of the explosion blowing the glass into the classrooms. Windows in stores and homes for a block around were broken by the blast. As the blast shook the school, Principal Maurice Garkinkel, white, tried to turn in the fire drill alarm, but it tailed to operate, he managed, however, to turn in a still alarm. The state teachers, a number of whom are Negroes, were able to calm the children and get them out at the school in safety. The calmness of the children and the teachers was in marked contrast to that of the colored and white residents of the district. Frenzied mothers who heard the crash spread word that the school was blown up, and there was a wild rush to evacuate. They purified all the effervescence to calm the hysterical mothers and fathers. Found Parts of Still. After searching through the Dean street building, Fire Marshal Bohny said he found parts of a brittle-gallon still. He also learned that the gas pipes had been tapped to the main under the garage at 101 Dean street. A rubber hose had been used. It leaked and filled the place with gas, which exploded. In all indications the still had water been. Bethel Church Damaged. Investigation by an Ae reporter pointed that several buildings along Thean street and Schenectady avenue were nearly demolished.

Young Brown was one of the brilliant scholars in the school and active in athletics. He had been attending the school for five years and was in Grade 6B. He has won awarded medals in track and all and was a Bloy Scout. He is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Brown of cared persons injured. The New York age Somers, Lucas, 13, 153 Marion street, St. Mary's.

Fourteen rooms of the school building were so badly damaged by the blast, that they were rendered unfit for use. Emergency squads of workmen were assigned by the Board of Education, the Department of Plant and Structures, and the Department of Public Works to rush the repairs, so that classes could be held on Monday. The police of the Atlantic avenue station, under Detective Lieut Abraham Goldquan, have been scouring the neighborhood looking for one "Wilson," whom persons saw apparently badly injured, stagger out of the wrecked building and walk away. They believed that he could not have gone far and is being protected by friends. The man rented the front apartment in the building from Hyman Aaron, white, the owner, on February 1. David Spear Is Held. David Spear, 40, a Negro, of 1041 Atlantic avenue, who said he is a harber temporarily out of work, was held by police Saturday for questioning about the still which exploded, damaging P. S. R8, wrecking two houses and injuring about 30 pupils. Spear told detectives he didn't even know where Dean street was—the wrecked school was at Dean street and Schenectady avenue and that he had never operated a still anywhere. He was arrested by Detective James Kane of the Atlantic avenue station and was questioned during the night. He denied that he had rented the house at 1045 Dean street under the name of Wilson and refused to give the detectives any further information. N. C. PYTHIANS IN RECEIVER'S HANDS BY COURT Insurance Dept. Charges Rates Too Low For Its Outstanding Policies Raleigh, N. C.-State Insurance Commissioner Dan C. Boley has notified thirty benefit and fraternial organizations operated by Negroes in North Carolina, that their insurance plans are not based on satisfactory rates, and he has ordered them to readjust matters before April 1 or they must cease doing business. In the meantime, the Grand Lodge, Knights of Pythias, with headquarters at Greensboro, has been placed in the hands of a temporary receiver, D W Morton of Raleigh, by the Wake County Superior Court, as a result of a $40,000 deficit and failure of the grand lodge, at its last session to raise its rates to correspond to the insurance it had outstanding, the rates, said Commissioner Boley, being entirely inadequate The grand lodge, it is reported has been torn by internal strife and dissension by efforts to levy extra assessments to bolster its financial resources. The insurance missioner has had it under surveillance for several years. SAMUEL HAMILTON AND WILLIAM H. PETERS WHO HAVE SOLD THEIR GARAGE ABOVE FOR MORE SPACIOUS QUARTERS TO TAKE CARE OF THEIR 250 NEW TAXI—CABS WHICH WILL BE DELIVERED IN MARCH. THIS IS THE LARGEST NEGRO OWNED TAXICAB COMPANY IN THE WORLD. 2 Negro Operators Buy 250 Taxicabs And Garage, Representing $500,000 Investment; Employ 750 People From Small Start In 1916 William Peters and Samuel Hamilton See Business Grow Until They Are Now Largest Taxicab Company Starting in 1916 with two Packard automobiles for rental business and one taxicab, William H. Peters and Samuel Hamilton have seen their dreams come true, and today they are the largest Negro taxicab operating concern in the world, with a business representing a half million dollar investment, 250 special built taxicabs, and a working force of more than 750 people. On March 1, Messrs. Peters and Hamilton, president and vice president, respectively, of the Hamilton and Peters Operating, Inc., will move their quarters to 1 East 140th street, where they will have a garage large enough to hold 200 cars. The new company will be one of the largest independent fleet operators in the city, as well as possessors of the largest single unit of the new 1930 model Saf-T-Cabs. For the past two years, Mr. Peters and Mr. Hamilton have been operating a fleet of 51 Checker cabs under the firm name of Rite Rate Taxi Corporation from their garage at. 300 West 143rd street. They have sold these 51 cabs and the garage to Conrad Kelly, another colored taxi operator, who is now operating them at the former RiteRate address. Will Use 700 Chauffeurs The new working force of the Hamilton and Peters organization will be composed of 700 taxi drivers, 10 mechanics, 25 garage helpers. The office force itself will consist of Mr. Peters, Mr Hamilton, two cashiers, a bookkeeper, and a stenographer, representing one of the largest, if not the largest Negro concern in the world. Mr Hamilton who was born in Trumad, B W. L., came to this country about 30 years ago and in the due course of time became natural. Ayer various jobs he became a private chauffeur. Mr Peters who was born in Schenectady, N Y. came to this city at an early age, and he too had several jobs before he decided to become a private chauffeur. Having bigger visions, Mr Peters on 1914, went up partnership with four other men in a garage rental business on West Lud Avenue and 63rd street. What was to become the gigantic operating company, however, did not start until 1916, when Mr Hamilton and Mr Peters formed a partnership and bought two Packard cars, for rental business and one taxicab. Their headquarters at that time was at Amsterdam avenue and 60th street, and they confined their efforts to taxicabs and private rentals. The business flourished and in 1923 they bought 10 Yellow staxis and moved into their own garage at 15 West 140th street. About 8 months later they had 20 cars, operating under their guidance Business continued to grow until 1922 saw the partners operating 40 Yellow cabs. Moved To 143rd Street Business increased and they again moved, this time to 306 West 143rd street. In 1928 they were operating a fleet of 51 Cleveland cars. During this time the men who were working under them, formed the Harlem Chauffeurs Benevolent Association, Inc., with Hurley B. Turner, president, Iphip Dahney, vice president, Samuel Hamilton, treasurer, and William Peters, chapman. The benevolent is operation is open to all taxi drivers and has a substantial treasury. One of the principal benefits derived by members, who pay 50 cents a week in duties, is a weekly contribution in the event of illness, drivers receive $25 a week and $15 a week for the following three. If at the end of that time, the driver is still sick, he is made contributions from what is known as a Poor Box Fund. To further provide for their employees, they are making arrangements to provide their men free life insurance on a group policy that will pay the driver families $1,000 in the event of death. Should any of the drivers leave their employ arrangements will be made for them to continue their life insurance policies at normal rates. More Drivers Needed. More drivers will be needed, however, when the new cabs arrive Match 1 and the Hamilton and Peters Operating, Inc. are looking for steady and reliable men to apply for positions. The partners are enthusiastic about the new cabs which have been especially built for their concern. There will be a special color scheme and all the cabs will be equipped to meet the specifications ordered by Police Commissioner Grover A. Whalen. They will have besides four doors and beated driver's compartments. "Hard work" and efficient management have brought them to present success, the partners say Besides giving opportunities for more than 750 people to make their livings, the partners have also invested considerable money in the Relief Mortgage Corporation, a corporation whose purpose is to bring much needed relief to persons seeking mortgage and Mr. Hamilton is president of this corporation and Mr. Peters is a member of the board of directors. As soon as the partners take possession of the new garage on March 1, deliveries are to be made, and the complete order of 250 cabs is expected to be filled within a short time thereafter. Slayer of Grace Trent Still at Large Although a week has elapsed since Mrs. Grace Trent, 38 years of age, was shot down in front of her house at 108 West 141st street, no arrest has been made. Detectives Nelson and Connolly, who are working on the case, told a representative of The Age that they expected to locate the slayer at any four. The man the police are seeking is said to be one Vincent Scott, an extragender lover of the deceased woman According to neighbors, he met Mrs Trent on the street and a quarrel resulted. As she attempted to enter her house about 11 o'clock on Tuesday evening, February 11, the assaultian fired one shot from a 38 calibre rifle revolver. The shot pierced her heart and she died immediately. The slayer came before the crowd captured. MAN HELD IN $5,000 BAIL AS FATHER OF CHILD BY HIS FOURTEEN YEAR OLD DAUGHTER Atty. Samuel F. Edmead Reported Jailed On Failure To Pay Estate Funds Appropriated To His Own Use The last official act of Albert H. Vitale, before relinquishing his duties as a City Magistrate, was to hold one James Hendy, 38 years of age, in $5,000 bail on one of the most serious and unusual charges to come before the courts in recent years. Hendy will be given a hearing in the 12th District Magistrates Court on Wednesday. According to Officer Thomas Kelly of the Children's Society, who is the complaining witness in the case, Hendy confessed to having had incestuous relation with his fourteen-year old daughter, a student at Junior High School 136. Fall Revealed Condition. The alleged relationship became public a few days ago when the young girl had a fall down the steps in her school. This fall, it is alleged, caused the girl who was in a delicate condition, unknown to her mother, to give premature birth to her child. This caused the mother to question her daughter closely and the result was the girl's admission that her own father was responsible for her condition. Attorney Samuel F. Edmead of $21 Classon avenue, Brooklyn, was reported to have been arrested Saturday, February 15, and lodged in the Raymond Street Jail, after his appeal was denied from the decision handed down on July 5, 1928, in which he was fined $8,250, with interest amounting to $738.50, by Surrogate George A. Wingate in the King's County Surrogate Court. Edmead was scheduled to appear before the Grand Jury MondayO, it is said, but subsequent investigation Harlem Ministers End Differences With Federation Greater N. Y. Federation Announces It Opposes All Segregation When the Rev. Dr. William B. Millard, executive secretary of the Greater New York Federation of Churches, appeared before the Interdenominational Ministers Meeting, composed of Harlem Protestant ministers, and read a letter from the Rev. Dr. Ralph W Sockman, president of the Federation, setting forth that organization's aims, the way was paved for an understanding between the two bodies. The colored ministers recently passed a resolution condemning the Federation for an alleged attempt to discriminate. After Dr. Millard read the letter from Dr. Sockman, the Rev. Dr. D. Ward Nichols, spokesman for the colored ministers, made an address unanimously approving the declaration and announced the renewal of all old relationships with the Federation. Federation's Letter The federation's letter read: The federation's letter read "Interdenominational ministers meet in New York. Dear Brillherr, "Owing to the situation which has recently arisen on account of articles appearing in the pulpit press, we desire to reaffirm our position of the following points "We never have stood and do not now stand for the segregation of the colored people of this city. The same right of free movement belongs to them as to all others of our fellow citizens. "We are opposed to race prejudice and desire to do everything in our power to remove it. "We believe in the equality of opportunity and treatment of all people. "We stand on the broad principles of brotherhood and Christian fellowship. "We desire to work in the closest cooperation with our brethren in the colored churches in promoting closer fellowship between the colored churches and the other churches in the city, grazing how essential this cooperation is to the extension of the Kingdom of God in this city. The wife and mother, although broken-hearted over the revelation, at once got in touch with the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children, and this organization, through Officer Kelly, had the girl placed in Harlem Hospital and the father arrested. Man Is Well Educated. Detective Florence- McCroahan who made the arrest, states that Hendy admitted the relationship to him. He told the detective the relationship had lasted a year. The prisoner was taken at once before Magistrate Vitale, following the arrest on Saturday, February 15, and before fixing bail the Magistrate denounced the prisoner as "the lowest type of criminal" to ever appear before him. Despite the magistrate's statement, Hendy is well educated, and is said to have earned $150 per week as a technician for a wealthy Bronx physician, who is working on a cure for cancer. The Hendy family reside at 672 St. Nicholas avenue. mead Reported re To Pay Estate ted To His Own Use upon his failure to apepar, resulted in the discovery that he had been ar- rested Saturday and taken to Ray- mond Street Jail as a result of his failure to pay the fine imposed upon him following the investigation of the settling of the estate of the late Hannah F. Taylor. The court's decision at that time declared that Edmead had misappropriated the sum of $2,50 for his own uses, and accordingly he was fined the entire amount with interest at 6 per cent. "We desire to co-operate with our colored brethren in removing the handicaps which they are now facing in their church life. "We repudiate any statement that may have been made or implied contrary to the above declaration. "Dr. RALPH W. SOCKMAN, President; Dr WILLIAM B. MILLAR, The meeting was held at Salem M E. Church, the Rev F. A Cullen, pastor and of fifty ministers were present NEGRO DEMOCRATS ASK CURRY FOR LEADER IN HARLEM Say Present Policy Is Detrimental Both To People and Party Inspired, it seems, by the achievements of the Republicans in the 19th Assembly District in winning their fight for majority leadership by the selecting of Col. Charles W. Pillmore as executive member, and of their partial success in the 21st A. D., a group of Negro Democrats, affiliated with Tammany Hall, have filed a petition with John F Curry, head of Tammany Hall, asking Negro, co-leadership in those two Harlem districts. The association passed a set of resolutions declaring that there has long been imposed upon them "a segregated and apportive leadership . . . detrimental alike to the best interest of the colored people and the advancement of the Democratic party." The result, they say, is that the Negro voters have no "official standing in the Democratic party or proportionate political recognition." Leader Curry was asked to remedy this by appointing in the two districts the positions to be filled, hereafter by the regular method of electing county committee. * The resolutions were signed by Eugene McIntosh, executive member, Dr. Oma H. Price, president; John H Lovett, Robert A. Calblow and Irving A. Smith, vice-presidents; Albert Hawkins, secretary, Ilmer Wiggins, assistant secretary, Perry Brown, treasurer, Ernest Nickens, sergeant-at-arms. HARLEM HOSPITAL STAFF IS REORGANIZED, GIVING PLACE TO NINETEEN NEGRO DOCTORS Changes Made Bring Many of Younger Group of Physicians Into Positions of Responsibility Harlem Hospital is now manned by a staff of physicians, of which practically forty per cent. are Negroes. This comes as the result of a reorganization of the staff by the new Commissioner of Hospitals. Dr. J. G. William Greeff. Confirmation Service At St. Martin's Lenox Avenue and 122nd Street SUNDAY, MARCH 2nd at 8 p.m. "Second Anniversary of the Organization of the Church" In effecting this, twenty-three white and two colored physicians have been dropped, the later being Drs. U. Conrad Vincent and Marshal Ross. In making this radical change in the policy of administering affairs at the Harlem Hospital, Dr. Greec said the reorganization was based upon a report and survey made by a committee appointed last August of which Dr. George D. Stewart was chairman. A Larger Representation. The recognition move, giving to the Negro doctors a much larger representation than they have ever had, has stirred a lot of conflicting comment, for the reason that among the white physicians dropped are some of the most prominent men in the city, the most outstanding being Dr Louis Brieidman and Henry-S. Pascal, Dr. Friedman was senior visiting surgeon. The new medical board is composed of forty-six members, twenty-seven whites and nineteen Negroes. They were formally organized on Friday, February 14, in the time of Dr. John F. Connor was named president, succeeding Dr. A. M. Shrady, who had been acting president since the resignation of Dr. Lewis K. Neff last July. The other officers are Dr. Thomas A. Martin, vice president, and Dr. Louis T. Wright, secretary. Had Filed Charges Dr. Friedman, according to the New York Times, had filed charges of incompetence, inefficiency and poor surgical judgment, against Dr. John F. Connors, surgical director, which charges were not acted upon, it was alleged, by the Commissioner of Hospitals, Dr. Connors would not comment upon the charges, saying that any statement should come from Commissioner Greeff, who has made appointments and changes. Dr. Greeff's statement as to the reorganization was as follows: "This election of officers followed a reorganization of Harlem Hospital based upon a report and survey made by a committee appointed last August, of which Dr. George D Stewart was chairman. I want very emphatically to correct the impression created that the Academy of Medicine was asked to sponsor this committee. Statements to the effect that Mayor Walker dictated some of the changes are wholly untrue. The reorganization is in the interest of the patients rather than when having aspirations for medical appointments." Dr. Greeff said he had read the charges filed against Dr. Connors and had investigated them, inferring that they had been proven groundless. The new hospital personnel is as follows: Personnel of Staff. Department of Surgery — whites: John F. Connors, C. S. B. Cassaba, Henry C Falk, H. B. Eisberg, Saul Ritchie, Philip J. Lipsett, Henry Scott; colored—L. T. Wright, P. M Murray, Ralph H. Young, Farrow R Allen, Abbre 'de L. Maynard, Robert S. Wilkinson and Albert S. Beasley, all Negroes. The Department of Medicine includes Thomas A. Martin, J. G. M. Bullowa, L. H. Berliner, B. P. Stivelman, S. S. Paley, all white; Lucien M Brown, Albert H Armong, J. T. Gromady and Vernon A Ayer, colored. Department of Obstetrics Frederick A. Kassebohn and Abraham Charles Posner, white; Thomas H. Amos jr., and Wiley M. Wilson colored.

Dr. Petioni's Statement. Dr. Chas A. Petition, secretary of the North Harlem Medical Society, when approached on the subject of the changes, expressed himself as follows: "There is no doubt that politics have been at the bottom of these changes. And it is clear that Dr. Louis Wright has had a great deal to do with the Negro appointments, a fact which was suspected by many members of our Society for some time past, and which undoubtedly led to his non-election once more to the presidency of the Society. "While the colored community may have reasons to congratulate themselves on the greater representation which Negroes now have in the services at Harlem Hospital and on the Medical Board there, I feel that several appointments cannot be satisfactory to the majority of the colored doctors who either practice in the community, or who have held minor positions at the hospital. Society Not Satisfied. Further the North Harlem Society as a body cannot be satisfied at the changes because even at the present moment a committee of the Society has been awaiting word from the Commissioner in reply to representations made to him on behalf of the Society, in regard to the ousting of Dr. Godfrey Nurse, promotions at the hospital, and other matters. Dr. Louis Wright, as president of the Society, was ex-officio member of that same committee, and although he was publicly stated to have been consulted on these matters, he never took the Society either in consultation or in his confidence, nor even made them know that changes were imminent. Of course at a meeting some years ago I expressed the view that Dr. Wright would act more or less as he has since acted, which he promptly disclaimed. My idea of the ethics of an officer and a doctor is consequently at variance with his. Subject To Scrutiny. "These inexperienced men will be subject to the critical or hostile scrutiny of practitioners of the other race who will lose no opportunity to find reasons in support of their desire to exclude Negroes from such institutions. "The outing of men like Drs Nurse and Conrad Vincent," the dental of promotion to many seniors in the out-patient department, and the appointment of veritable tyros may result in agitation and the resort to 'politics and knavish tricks' or other measures on the part of the disgruntled men which may militate the reputation, already not the best, of the Hospital, against the feeling of security and confidence on the part of both the patients and the staff which are essential to the carrying on of the best work for the community. "I am satisfied with the appointment of Dr. Wright as secretary notwithstanding the observations I have already made. "I expect the whole matter will be aired at the forthcoming meeting of the North Harlem Medical Society on Thursday, February 20, when a full attendance of members and other practitioners is anticipated."

Remember— The Week of February 22 Astrologically Considered The Week of February 22 Astrologically Considered The birthyear for February. 22 promises some real opportunities to the people of today to develop in established business, and to gain promotion in employment. The chest and throat should be guarded against colds. Some re-adjustment in the family circle will come to nearly every, one of today. Those who can use patience and good judgment, and especially try to avoid worry, can gain much in this birthyear to come. February 23 begins a birthyear that will require careful attention to financial and romantic matters that will come up, and those who do not try anything that is too radical can make headway. The employment business will need careful attention and the tendency to do too much in business and employment should be avoided. This is a year for patience. Family adjustments will come to every one of today. The coming year for the people born February 24 does not promise success to those who cannot use patience and tact in dealing with superiors in employment. It will be very hard to get a new job. The opportunities that will come up will bring gain and success if used. February 25 begins a birthyear that will require a need for careful attention to legal matters, and those who can avoid them their troubles will certainly come out best. Some worry and trouble because of careless and thoughtless letters will come to nearly every one. The people of today will find the birthyear very pleasant if they try to give the justice that they expect from others. most accurate in piercing the heart of Cupid, and Mrs William Sharp Hunter and Mrs Vinetta Thompson for answering most correctly the love game sentences Following these pastimes, a delicious collation was served.

Stowe, Jr., High Alderman Moore Visits Harriet B. Stowe, Jr., High Alderman Fred R. Moore visited Harriet Beecher Stowe Junior High School last Friday. He was escorted by Miss Kormann to a classroom where he was introduced to a group of pupils who are recent arrivals in our city. He was coronally received. Then he visited several of the rooms where the girls study the practical arts. He was much impressed with the opportunities offered the girls in these rooms, with the excellence of the work done and with the broad educational scope of the work. In these splendidly equipped, modern shops the girls get a comprehensive course in practical arts, including industrial art, millinery, dressmaking, power-machining operating, box-making, flower and favor making. Each girl makes a model book in which she has the directions and models of the practical arts course for each term so that when she is graduated she has her complete course for reference. In addition to this, the girls study all the regular junior high school subjects, preparing themselves to enter senior high school, and after that, it possible to further educate themselves. Mr. Moore regretted that he did not have time to visit some of the other activities of the modern, well-occupied building. On the way out, he spoke briefly to the first-named group of pupils. He said, "I am interested in the class organization and the general atmosphere of the whole school. It is hard to believe that such orders like girls as I see here, could scream and pull, and push on the streets. I am also much pleased with the work of your practical arts department which I have just seen." After hearing about the thrift department he said in part, "Let me urge you to save. Learn to save your money—do not spend it all. Then when you graduate from this school, you can buy the necessities for high school and when you graduate from high school you will have money to make a start in your millinery or dressmaking business, or if you pursue a professional or teacher's course, you will have a start toward that."

Those who have money should be very careful to put it in the bank, and not to lend or borrow. No investments should be made except through a reputable bank. Family adjustments will come to nearly one. This is a year for patience. An inheritance seems likely. February, 28 begins a birthyear that promises 'worthwhile gain and honor to those who can plan thoughtfully. Business and employment will bring worthwhile gain. The people of today can be their own worse enemy, and unless they stop worrying about calamities that never happen and attierl strictly to business the year will be a failure. This can be a very prosperous year. Every one born in this week is ruled by the planet Neptune, and this mystic planet imparts the most best qualities of leadership and social service, or, on the negative plane, imparts the qualities that bring a strong desire for excessive drinking, gambling and absolutely worthless living. Some of the best musicians have come from this astrological sign, Pisces. Nearly every one born this week has a tendency to worry over trifles, and to imagine the worst of everything. Those who have been passing through so much unhappiness and trouble in the past two years will now find that life is beginning to be more pleasant. We have great treasures on the people of this week each learn: To do unto others just as they want others to do to them. They should not make promises that they do not keep.

"I did not feel equal to the task we have from day to day. I suffered quite a bit with pains in my side and back. I was very weak. "I knew that I must take something to keep up. I saw Cardui advertised and decided to try it. I am glad I did; for I felt better after taking my first bottle. I took three in all, and was greatly improved." Try Cardui for your troubles. Get a bottle, today. CARDUI Helps Women To Health brated it quietly. The day before a few friends felicitated him at the Musolite Club on Washington avenue. Among those present were S. R. Carter, E. Oliver Jackson, "Chief" W. L. Young, Edward Ellsworth, W. R. Lofton, Thomas Crawley, John Walkers and others. Mrs. Ida May Mattis has organized a group of girls at Bridge Street Church into a Scout Troop, Mrs. Mattis is the wife of Prince Mattis, a steward of the church. She is active in Eastern Star, Y| W. C. A., and other work. BRIDGE STREET GIRL SCOUTS IN 1st APPEARANCE The members of the recently organized Girl Scout Troop, No. 28, Bridge Street Church made their first public appearance at the church on Sunday-evening. They made a splendid showing. After the opening exercises, seven young girls who are members of the troop presented a sacred drama entitled, "The Challenge of the Cross." They had as guests Captain Frances Phillips of Troop 85 and her scouts, from Concord Baptist Church; and Captain Jordan of Troop 124 and her scouts, from Fleet Street A. M. E. Zion Church. Mrs. Ida Mae Matis is captain of Troop 28 She is the organizer. The troop and their guests entered the church marching to the strains of "Onward, Christian Soldiers." Following a hymn and a prayer, Patrol Leader Bessie Robinson introduced Captain Hatts. She told of the organization of the troop, its purpose and its work. She then introduced the patrol leaders. They are Misses Susie Robinson, Bessie Robinson, Miriam Rivene, Pearl Davis and Hazel Tyler. The next was a solo by Miss Idamae Tyler. The committee of men and women who are aiding in the financing of the troop were then introduced. They are, the Rev Edward E. Tyler, Arthur Q. Martin, Mesdames W. E. McCann, Mary E. Lawrence, Ella Woodford, Miss Maria J. Saunders and Miss Annie T. Jordan. The troop was presented with an American flag by Mrs Lawrence. She did this on behalf of Mr. Martin who had donated it, he not being present at the time. The response was made by Scout Gladys Washington. This was followed by the reciting of the pledge of allegiance, the singing of the "Star Spangled Banner," and the giving of the Scout promise and laws. The next was the drama. It portrayed very vividly an object lesson in Christian life. The lesson being that we should bear our crosses without complaint, looking to Jesus for strength and have faith in Him. Miss Susie Robinson had the part of the gospel of the "Esangel." This was the leading part, and she played it well. The disciples were Misses Beulah Joseph, Hazel Tyler, Gladys Washington, Hortense Bowers, Beverly Frazier and Blanche Courtrier, all of whom did nicely. A feature of the play was a solo which was rendered by little Miss Helen Wiggins at the beginning of the play. Upon the conclusion of the drama, Mrs Mattis was given a token on behalf of the troop. The last number was remarks by the pastor, Dr Tatler. The congregation gave the troop a literal collection to aid it in its work.

Zion Church, to move the parsonage from next door to the church to Cumberland street, between Fulton street and Atlantic avenue. The New York Telephone Company has purchased all of the property on the east side of Bridge street, beginning at Willoughby street and running south to the parsonage. In building a foundation the walls of the house were affected, hence the removal of Dr. Brown. Dr. Brown, who is one of the outstanding clergymen of his denomination, has lived in this house since coming here from Washington, D. C., some years ago. He has taken an active part in the civic, political, community and fraternal life of the city in general and the downtown section in particular. An Outstanding Force. The moving of Dr. Brown to the hill section takes one of the outstanding forces for civic and religious righteousness-out of that district which was known as the First Assembly District for a number of years. In the past twenty odd years that Fleet Street Church has been located on Bridge street, it has been a forum for our group, and in that time many of the downtown political lights held forth there. A few have departed and the rest have moved out of the district. Those who are still alive but have moved out of the district are Dr. and Mrs. M, C. Lawton, John D. Nixon, Ben. Williams, Bishop F. M. Jacobs, T. P. Moseley, "Capt." W. D. Adams, Wiley G. Overton, Turner Smith, William H. Wallace str. and others. In their day this district _was one of the banner Republican districts of the county, but since the Negroe have moved out it has gone into the Democratic column. Churches May Move. From all indications it is just a matter of time before Bridge Street Church, Fleet Street Church and Antioch, Baptist Church will have to sell or move, owing to the commercial activities in the district. A number of persons are expected A number of persons are opposed to selling or removal for sentimental and other reasons. Some advance the argument that Brooklyn is fan-shaped and there is not one section that has the bulk of Negro population, so it is just as well to remain downtown, for you can get downtown from any point for five cents fare and people from Harlem can visit the churches for five cents fare. No matter which viewpoint is correct, it remains a fact that the district is fast becoming a commercial district, and not a residential one. The only church in the far downtown section of the white people that has been able to withstand the march of commercial progress, has been Plymouth Church, and it has tradition and a large number of hotels to drawn upon for a congregation. NECTADY AVENUE N, Editor Brooklyn Bandits Gag Porter and Loot Night Club Safe of $1,000 James McBride of 1446 Pacific street was so softly humming a turn about 4 o'clock last Monday morning in the new Platbush night club known as Henri's Rendezvous, in the Albermarle Theatre building, 1973-Platbush avenue, as he was cleaning up the club where he is a porter. Suddenly his attention was called to a sound on the heavily cushioned carpet around the dance floor. He locked up and saw three white men. One pointed a gun directly at McBride and ordered him to put up his hands. The other two pouced upon him, put a towel around his eyes, tore a chunk out of a soiled tablecloth as a gag, and then tied up his hands and feet with $^9$ heavy, rubber-insulated wire from one of the floodlights. After binding McBride, the bandits looted the safe, taking over $1,000. After becoming helpless, the porter could only guess what was happenings. About 5 o'clock he was able to rub the tablecloth gag against the wall until it became loose and wriggled himself to an open window, where his shouts soon brought policeemen from the Snyder avenue police station. According to the police the bandits came up the alley in the rear of the building. They made their escape in the same way.

While nearly all the Senators who opposed the confirmation of Mr. Hughes paid tribute to his learning, ability and character, they insisted that he would carry to the post of chief justice a sense of the superiority of property rights as opposed to human rights. His trend of mind and his associations as an advocate for corporations it was felt would machine him to lean to that point of view. For several days the fate of Mr. Hughes' nomination hung in the balance with fourteen Democrats' voting in his favor, he was finally confirmed by a vote of fifty-two to twenty-six. Eleven republicans voted against confirmation, including Senators Borah, Blaine, Brookheart, Couzens, Frazier, Johnson, La Forte, McMaster, Norbeck, Norris and Yye. All of these, it will be noticed, represent Western states, and most of them are what is known as insurgents or progressive Republicans. Now, why did these Republican Senators oppose a few Republican and a former candidate for President for this judicial post, to provide over the highest court of which he was once an honored member? Perhaps Senator Nye most aptly voices the cause of their opposition, not so much to the individual himself as to the doctrines which it was thought that he represented and which the court has already unanimated in former opinions. Senator Nye held that the country had reached the parting of the ways on two economic theories vital to government: property rights on one hand and the interests of humanity on the other. Senator La Forte amplified this contention, by stating that the power of the court exerted in the field of sustaining the rights of corporations to excessive earnings, "might character generations in links of economic bondage to those great aggregations of wealth as effectively as if they were the chains of slavery." In past years the Negro race has had to cause to complain that many of the decisions rendered by the Supreme Court failed to vindicate the principle of human rights, as set forth in the War amends to the Constitution and that because of this neglect and the absence of the appropriate legislation to enforce such rights, these amendments have been practically annulled and rendered of no effect. Now, we find United States Senators making similar accusations and opposing the choice of Chief Justice because he is supposed to delineate to the support of property rights as opposed to human rights. All of which goes to show that a wrong cannot be committed against one group of humanity without its insidious result, coinciding upon the rest of the nation.

HAITIAN ATTITUDE ON RACE When President Hoover appointed his commission of five members to investigate state conditions in Haiti, there was a effort to put the responsibility for the failure to include an American Negro up to the president Borno of Haiti, who it was sold and expressed his satisfaction with an all white commission. Whether this expression represented the personal sentiment of the Haitian head of government, or merely that of the American High Commissioner, who is the Haitian government or all practical purposes, is not quite clear in any event, it gives rise to the inquiry that are the true sentiments of the Haiti When President Hoover appointed his commission of five members to investigate conditions in Haiti, there was an effort to put the responsibility for the failure to include an American Negro up to President Borno of Haiti, who it was said, had expressed his satisfaction with an all-white commission. Whether this expression represented the personal sentiments of the Haitian head of government, or merely that of the American High Commissioner, who is the Haitian government, for all practical purposes, is not quite clear. In any event, it gives rise to the inquiry, what are the true sentiments of the Haitian ruling classes in regard to affiliation with their brethren of the blood in America. of Haitian independence. Patriotic appeals from Haitian organizations for independence have been received by the Negro press and given the widest circulation. No force in America has been more consistent and persistent than the Negro press in urging that the marines be taken out of Haiti and the republic restored as an independent entity. Visiting Haitian patriots have appealed to audiences of American Negroes to assist the Haitian cause and have always received a sympathetic response. Now, despite all these evidences of sympathy and understanding between the two colored groups, one partaking of an Anglo-Saxon civilization and the other a Latin, we are confronted with a situation which raises the question of Haitian preference for white Americans over colored Americans. If this preference was merely the personal sentiment of Monsieur Borno, it would be explainable upon the ground that he has been pictured by the Negro press as the instrument of the American occupation for the exploitation of his own country. Knowing that he was regarded in this light by most American Negroes, it would be perfectly natural for him to prefer a commission consisting solely of white men. But there is a wider significance attaching to this matter of foreign people of African extraction preferring to deal with white Americans rather than with Americans of their own color and racial origin. It is the reflection of the attitude taken by the white American, when he has to deal with foreigners of the darker races and to stifle or subdue his color and caste prejudices. This can be done by white Americans when the stake of money or power is great enough; the color bar can be raised when the darker race is foreign and important enough to justify the concession. This was what Roger Babson told the big business interests of the United States they must do, if they wanted to secure the trade of South America. Many Latin-Americans of mixed blood would not come to this country to visit or trade, because they were liable to be discriminated against because of color prejudice. There followed a tendency among white Americans to relax color discrimination if the colored person in question was of foreign origin. Colored nationals of foreign nations have all come to recognize this tendency of white Americans to drop color discriminations except in the cases of Negro Americans, hence they argue that it is not good for them to ally themselves too closely with colored Americans. This feeling, an instinctive effort at self-protection, may help to account for the fact that the American commission to investigate Haiti is composed of five white commissioners. The fact that a complementary commission is to be appointed consisting solely of American Negroes, to investigate educational conditions, does not change matters materially, although it is probably intended to make the American Negro think that his nose is not so badly out of joint as it feels. GOLD STAR MOTHERS ABROAD. By an act of Congress passed last March, it was provided that a pilgrimage of the surviving mothers and widows of soldiers who died in the World War, should be arranged to visit the cemeteries in Europe, where their former sons and husbands lie buried. All expenses of these travelers are to be paid by the United States and cabin class accommodations are to be provided at sea and first class hotel accommodations both in New York City and in Europe. As stated by the authority of the Quartermaster General's office at Washington, "In the preparation of plans, especial care is being taken that colored women shall receive the same kind of accommodations that are being provided for white women." Originally it was estimated that some nine hundred colored women would desire to make the pilgrimage, but more recent information gives the number as only two hundred. This has affected the original tentative plans, which provided for sending all the colored women on one ship. The military authorities have found, or more likely made for themselves, many difficulties in arranging for the pilgrimage of colored women, which they consider to be one of the most delicate questions pertaining to the pilgrimage. In conformity with the dictates of American prejudice, which flourishes most strongly in army circles, they reached the conclusion that "greater satisfaction can be given to all concerned by conducting a separate pilgrimage for colored women." No consideration appears to have been given the fact that these soldiers fought and died together for a common cause, sometimes stated "to make America safe for democracy." This common purpose, it would seem, should unite these survivors of the fallen heroes in a community of feeling that should transcend minor differences of racial origin and complexion. But no, the army authorities argue that during the period of six weeks that THE NEW YORK AGE these women will be away from home, the social element is one that will need, firmly enter into any arrangements made careful attention is being given to the matter in order that those who make the pilgrimage may get acquainted with each other, and form friendships which will help them to bear the trip to the graves of their sons and husbands." This last sentence ought to form the strongest argument against the separation of any group of these mothers and wives because of differences of race or color. All of their sons and husbands ought for the same cause and many of them fell side by side on the same field battle. Any separation of their saviors is undemocratic and un-America when based upon such superficial differences as race origin and complexion. The best way to arrange for the pilgrimage of the colored Gold Star mothers and wives would be to send them in groups of twenty-five or so on the same steerings as the rest of the members of the pilgrimage. these women will be away from home, "the social element is one that will necessarily enter into any arrangements made.

HARLEM HOSPITAL CHANGES. In so far as the reorganization of the staff of Harlem Hospital has increased, the representation of Negro physicians among the staff, it is to be commended as increasing the openings for racial advancement in the practice of medicine at the same time it is well to observe that the nineteen physicians appointed on the new staff are almost without exception of the best type obtainable for public service and that the interests of the public are not likely to suffer from the change the change was made as the result of drastic shake-up, in which twenty-three white doctors and two colored physicians were ousted. While Harlem Hospital is a good place to start a policy of this kind, inaugurating the employment of colored physicians on a larger scale than hitherto attempted, the city service, it is to be hoped that the policy will not stop with this institution. As their experience grows and their special abilities become apparent, they should be well if these colored physicians should be distributed through the other city institutions, where their services may be employed to the best advantage. They should be a public policy worthy of the greatest and most democratic city in the world. While it has been rumored that politics had something to do with this hospital shake-up, we are reluctant to attribute to any such cause. The interests of public health and public instruction are so vital and too important to the well-being of all the community, to be jeopardized by becoming the objects of political maneuvering. The changes made to the hospital service, viewed as a whole appear to work for the benefit of the public and incidentally of the race. From this point of view, Dr. Greef, the new commissioner of Hospitals, is to be concerned on his vigorous and radical action.

Every so often the city editors of the metropolitan newspapers say to the most promising of their bright young men why don't you go and write up Harlem so the aforesaid bright young men get, and whether they visit Harlem or not, grind out a number of columns of lights and shades, especially the latter, of Harlem whether the product of simulated imagination or a more or less visual observation. Usually cabarets are Every so often the city editors of the metropolitan newspapers say to the most promising of their bright young men, "why don't you go and write up Harlem?" So the aforesaid bright young men go out, and whether they visit Harlem or not, grind out a number of columns on the lights and shades, especially the latter, of Harlem whether the product of a stimulated imagination or a more or less casual observation. Usually cabarets and night clubs are the burden of their song, even if these institutions are but the bait to draw jaded white pleasure seekers to northern territory. Once in a blue moon a conscientious writer like Beverly Smith, who did a recent series of articles on Harlem for the Herald Tribune, will receive, such an assignment and treat his subject with honesty and discretion. When Mr. Smith started on this last series of articles, he dropped into The Age office and sought such information as would facilitate his task and enable him to write with knowledge and authority. Such information as was available was gladly put at his service and the result was that his article gave more vital facts and a completer picture of the varying conditions of Harlem than is generally the case with the stereotyped newspaper account. Mr. Smith did not try to be sensational or to paint a picture of utter degradation and wholesale vice. He drew things as he saw them, some good, some bad, and all partaking of the common qualities of human nature. On Saturday an editorial writer on the Herald Tribune undertook to sum up the results of Mr. Smith's articles in an editorial entitled "A city of Darkness." He admitted that Beverly Smith "was not content to paint the usual 'nigger heaven,' distorted as a Coney Island mirror, though every line of it reflects some reality." That seemingly disappointed the editor, but he recovered sufficiently to dice sympathetically upon the denial of opportunities to the Negro in New York, "which were open to him in the South which he left." Evidently he thought the Negroes should not have left the South. However, the editor at last concluded that, "Harlem is none the less a ray of promise." and that "Negroes are beginning to rise out of the COMMENTS BY THE AGE EDITORS ON SAYINGS OF OTHER EDITORS The editor of the Black Dispatch of Oklahoma City, having heard of the soup line established at a local hotel to feed the hungry and unemployed, went to view the democracy said to prevail there. He reported what he saw under the headline, "The Blessing of Poverty:" Sunday about two o'clock, when we walked into the dungeon of the hotel we found black and white seated together, and at peace. The table, as we went in the door, was occupied by Negroes; the next by whites; the next by Negroes, and on and on throughout the big room sat the two races eating together. What had brought this about? Poverty. The white, men who sat at those tables were hungry just as were the blacks. Racial antagonism had been shed up on the street before the descent into the dungeon. As a result, peace, prevailed, and we wondered whether the same white men would be willing to follow such a course when the sun came out and the snow melted. Surely here is a lesson in race relations. Surely these poor whites have learned that food always tastes good if your appetite is whetted just right, and even if Negroes eat at the same table. Too much credit can not be given Mr. Joseph Huckins, to whom honor is due for this fine humantarian work. He is a man formed, that black as well as white, must be accorded the same character of treatment, and that no discrimination would be allowed. It is fine to know that while Mr. Huckins was feeding hungry black men in his hotel a Negro grocer, Mr. R. B. Sparks, out on the east side of the city, was feeding hungry whites along with the colored who sought his bounty. Truly, poverty is a leaven out of which humanity gets more than prosperity could ever offer. The blessing of poverty is brotherhood. Editor Roscoe Dunjiee ventured the assertion that if the dwellers on earth suffered more, men and races would draw closer together, whereas prosperity breeds arrogance. Hence, American prejudice and intolerance. A measure of the efforts being made to raise the standard of living among the Negro farmers of Texas may be gathered from the following account of a meeting of Extension Workers held at Prairie View, as published in the Texas Freeman of Houston: The-workers of the Negro Division of Extension Service, consisting of 21 local home demonstration agents, 23 local farm demonstration agents, and 4 staff members, state leader, state supervising, home demonstration agent, district agent and secretary, met in a 3-day meeting at Prairie View, January 20-22. The purpose of the meeting was to enable the local workers to come together to discuss matters of common interest to them and gain new knowledge to raise the standard of living among the Negro farmers of Texas. The program was so arranged as to give actual instruction to the agents. Instruction was given by teachers of the agricultural, home economics and mechanical arts divisions of the school. The meetings during the 3-day session were so arranged that such instruction as would benefit men and women workers alike, such as poultry raising, gardening and cement mixing, was given to the whole group, while other meetings were held in sections, the men receiving one kind of instruction while the women were receiving another. The men were instructed in step cutting, rafter cutting, concrete mixing, feed for dairy cows, treating diitching, livestock judging, poultry judging, peanut budding, rope making, harness repairing, milk records, milk testing, etc. The women had classes in technique of giving demonstrations, growing crops for falrs, furniture painting and staining, picture framing, laying cement walks, sewing handicraft, general home improvement work, poultry raising, dairy work and home sanitation. The value of such meetings as this, together with the practical instruction received, should go far to improve rural conditions and make farming more profitable. In an article explaining "Why They Merged, by an Insider," reprinted from the Dunbor News in the Supreme Liberty Guardian, an insurance monthly, the writer told of some of the reasons for the consolidation of the Liberty Life, Supreme Life and Casualty and Northastern Life Insurance Companies. Among other things he said: Building a large insurance company today is vastly different from building a life insurance company under the conditions which existed when the large insurance companies of this country started 40 or 50 years ago. In the first place, everything that enters into the building of a company costs more, while the price that a company can obtain for insurance remains the same; it has not actually decreased. trough of their black ghetto." His closing sentence is somewhat cryptic, when he said, "If New York will let them, they will find less conspicuous opportunities elsewhere." The force and sincerity of Beverly Smith's articles may be gauged by the spark of optimism that they evoked from this editorial begun in slightly pessimistic vein. Work Life and other large companies began business, the salaries of clerks and bookkeepers were about one-third or one-fourth the salaries of clerks and bookkeepers of today. Men and women who are receiving salaries averaging $2,500 a year were content in those days to work for from $600 to $900 a year. The cost of paper, printing, machines and everything else has gone way beyond the cost of 50 years ago, but the premium for a $1,000 of insurance is actually less than the premium which was paid at that time. We recognized this fact and realized that three companies operating separately and singularly could not hope to run as cheaply as one company with the same amount of business and a reduced overhead. This principle of reducing overhead expenses is responsible for many of the mergers taking place in business and financial circles. Talking about what constitutes "An Ascertainable Amount of Negro Blood," in the racial integrity bill before the Virginia legislature, the St. Luke Herald of Richmond vociferated: There are mischief-making things that set your mind afire, and then knock you cold in the present session of the General Assembly of the Commonwealth of Virginia. Once more in the biennial course legislative events Colonel E. S. Cox, Saint John the Powell are preaching. Anglo-Saxon racial purity in the wilderness of public opu- pation. Six years ago these founding fathers and inspiration of the Anglo-Saxon Clubs of Virginia and the World began their janatical program of purifying the blood streams of the mux and mongrelized races of Virginia. The Race Integrity Bill, introduced in 1924, read as follows: "The terms white person shall apply only to those who have no trace whatsoever other than Caucasian, but persons, who have one-sixteenth or less of the blood of the American Indian and have no other non-Caucasian blood shall be deemed to be white persons." The present Race Integrity Bill, assured to become law instead of the maiden bill, read as follows: "Be it enacted by the General Assembly of Virginia that any person in whom there is ascertainable any Negro blood, shall be deemed a colored person." All this Race Integrity racket is not worth a tinker's dam. The subversive activities only engender heat, controversial bitterness, and combative bad feelings. The wasted energies and unloosed eloquence in the House and Senate of the General Assembly should be utilized for constructive civic progress. The Virginia solons should bear in mind the caution that the late Gov. Tillman once addressed to the South Carolina lawmakers, who were bent on minimizing the percentage of Negro blood that might exist in a legally defined white person, when he told them that cutting the percentage might affect the first families of the State. Discussing the addition made by the Filipinos to "The White Man's Burden," the Chicago Sunday Bee said: In order that he might exploit the Filipinos as the blacks have been exploited, they have been brought to this country to furnish cheap labor. In California where the great majority of Filipinos land and remain, the white workers, whom they have supplanted and with whom they compete for work, are all het up over the situation and have resorted to mobbing the Filipinos to drive them out. This is not the humane way to relieve yourself of a burden voluntarily assumed. It is hard on the publics and causes the pagans to doubt the brand of Christianity the Nordics practice. The prejudice against Filipinos has grown to such an extent in California that fear of race trouble has resulted in mixed boxing matches being cancelled. Congress also has had the riots called to its attention and threatens to take a hand in it—which hand it will take, the Californiaans or the Filipinos has not been disclosed. However, the Philippine Commission mow in this country agitating for the complete freedom and independence of their country, wants the United States to take its feet out of it. Yes, the white man has burdened himself and bound himself with the red, brown, yellow and black man's burdens. There is but one way for him to be relieved and released. He may as well face it squarely now and have it over with as ultimately. He must practice the Golden Rule that he preaches so lustily. The question of the Philippines has become more complicated by the alignment of the sugar growers of the United States on the side of independence for the islands, so that Filipino products may be barred from competition. The Washington Tribune appears be at odds with the authorities of Howard University, judging from an editorial bearing the injunction, "Approach the Bar with Clean Hands," in which it said: President Mordecai W. Johnson of Howard University has wrenched the Negro press as catering "to a scandal-mongering public. The present perturbation of Dr. Johnson with the Negro press follows very closely his failure to subsidize and censor this press. Certainly Dr. Johnson is not uttering this criticism with clean hands. In saying that the Negro press caters to a "scandal-mongering public" Dr. Johnson not only indicts the press, but the readers as well. A president of a great university would send his emissary to a nearby university to purchase the edition of a certain paper to suppress a story about large gifts to the university and failed, certainly should not try to retaliate by labelling the whole Negro press as "scandal mongers." Unfortunately, Dr. Johnson's regime has not been one of cordiality with the Negro press. This is true despite the fact that it was the Negro press who paved the way for him to occupy his present position.

THOMAS While the words of universal praise were get warm on the lips of the citizens of Atlanta, who heard Dr. Plato. Durham make his last public utterance Sunday afternoon in Sisters' Chapel of Spelman College on the occasion of the presentation of the Harmon Award to Dr. John Hope for achievement in education, the heart-breaking and spirit-strikingenng news of his sudden death penetrated the community and left figuratively thousands of men and women in every walk of life, representing all race elements, prostrated in their paths. Like the late John Eagan, he was one of the most universally loved citizens who has ever resided in this community. He made his last public gesture to interracial goodwill and understanding in a testimony to the usefulness of Dr. John Hope in the following to be memorable words: "Dr. Hope has lived in Atlanta for thirty years and has spoken and acted courageously, fearlessly in the many difficult situations that have arisen and he has throughout that period held the confidence and high esteem of the citizens who have been associated with him. The conditions under which he and other members of his race have had to labor in an effort to secure an equitable distribution of public funds for the education of the Negro youth presents a tragedy in our American life. Thank God there are white men and women in this section of our nation, who are determining that this tragedy shall not always exist." Dr. Durham was one of the organizers and charter members of the Committee on Church Cooperation, and was also the organizer and first president of the Christian Council of Atlanta, which is composed of ministers and lay delegates from eight or more Protestant churches in the city. He was a member of the board of directors of both the Atlanta and National Urban League. Ten years ago when I came to the city to organize the Atlanta branch of the Urban League, we expressed a desire to have the most fair-minded, courageous, kindly disposed and open-minded white person as chairman. Dr. Durham was the unanimous choice of the colored people. Around his illumination personality this institution was up in the annual meeting of the National Urban League in 1920 in the City of New York, N. J. Dr. Durham gave one of the principal addressed. His approach to the question of race relations was so unorthodox, that the delegates assembled fairly inward at the strangeness of his words. Years ago, when it cost much more than one had to espouse the interest of this underprivileged minority group, it was said Dr. Durham spoke out in defense of Prof. Bassett, a faculty member of Trinity College. On one occasion Prof. Bassett stated that Robert E Lee and Booker T. Washington were the greatest men the South has ever produced. This statement created such an agitation among the students, the board of trustees asked for his resignation and the students burned his body in chign on the campus. Dr. Durham organized the faculty and advised the board of trustees that if they demanded the resignation of Prof. Bassett they would have to also fill the vacancies made possible by the whole faculty resigning. Bassett was not forced to resign. A few days ago, Dr W A Sutton, superintendent of the Board of Education said, "I have gotten more inspiration and help from Dr Plato to Durham on the question of equity justice and fair-dealing to all men than I have from any one individual Dr. Durham has said to me more than one hundred times, the question of duty and human conduct is essentially the question of principle, the persons or races to be benefited or affected are mere accidents." Frequently students from Emory University come into our office for information on some phase of Negro life or some economic question on information on industry. Invariable base who reflex a liberal attitude to change that has taken place in their appreciation of the Negro, as a person of interest, misgives a cross section of people different races and different stations who have been beneficiaries of the beneficient start of this great man I have heard him speak to mixed audiences, to the satisfaction of the most critical minds of both. More than most men he lived in accordance with the philosophy of the late Theodore Roosevelt, as expressed in the following words "He sure that you are always fundamental" right in relationship to your fellow man than the heart of God go forth to duty." Saturday, February 22, 1930 A conference with various press representatives was held at the university last fall at the instigation of Dr. Johnson. At this meeting the whole matter of the relation of the Negro press to the university was discussed and those who attended came away with the impression that the ground work had been laid at last for a satisfactory working agreement between the fourth estate and the university, especially the president's office. There was a slight improvement for a time, but during the past several weeks, matters have been going from bad to worse and now the climax has been reached with Dr. Johnson's curt and insulting reflection on the Negro press. The ignoring of the entire press at the recent conference of General Smuts, can never be forgotten. This was downright premeditated sulkiness. The Tribune gave warning that news at Howard cannot be suppressed nor a dictator censorship established. If a news story is occasionally missed it will be the university that will suffer. One of his fellow colleagues at Emory University said of him that was the most Christlike man he had ever been associated with. He always registered a protest reflexing righteous indignation against any form of injustice. He always took the part of the "underdog." An unerring and ever present record of greatness is revealed in the disposition of the attitude of an individual to actively, consistently identify himself with the interest of the despair or dejected sons of men. The willingness on the part of an individual in the upper circle of human society to have the humblest and weakest members of the social order equally participating with him with the proof of common social inheritance sets him apart as a unique personality and exceptional individual. "He did justice, loved mercy and humbled him with the God." Alastair Western Opportunity For Colored Farmers Editor of The New York Age — All the canning industries have combined and formed a million dollar corporation. The colored farmers will be "grubstaked" by these moneyed men, but the herd instinct is in the way. Consequently the business interests are importing Mexicans by the hundreds into this State. This State could absorb at least a million Negroes. There are great steel industries in Duluth the same as in Gary, Ind. The agricultural agents of the various railroads in the main office in this city and in St. Paul can put any of us wise to the farm situation. We would then become producers. They "crop-share" down south Why not come out here and own the land? Why let the Mexicans hog up this industry? J. M. BODDY, Minneapolis, Minn. Frederick Douglass Editor Of The New Editor of The New York Age We are again called upon to testify our value and appreciation of the invaluable services go nobly rendered by one of the vanguards of our own race We are again admonished to keep alive the great traits and abilities of Frederick Douglass born February 14, 1817. And as time goes on, our people are becoming more and more impressed with the virtues and the valorous deeds done by our forebears in days when to assert one's manhood meant a torture worse than death itself. But in spite of those drastic conditions, our hero was so inspired with the love of freedom and faith in God, that he waged warfare single-handed against his enemies as an orator and a writer. The glory of his achievements loom larger and brighter with the hum of time. We have had to the present generation as a model to his copied by every member of our race, and a shining light to be emulated by men of every nationality. Lincoln and Douglas struck the shackles from eight million black bondmen—the former by virtue of his office; the latter by force of moral suasion. When we observe that the status of our champion of human rights was little above that of a serf, it shows the innate superior qualities of that wonderful character. We are drawing, this thrilling dramatic picture of the life and achievements of one of our people who left us an inspiring hegemony of courage and determination the face of unsurmountable oppressions, and without a ray of hope to light his pathway to success. We taught bravery to history. We did not forget that Frederick Douglas was filled with the Spirit of God, and when Heaven is with us, men play little or no part in thwarting our aims. Our custon of celebrates the lives of our distinguished men at stated periods, has extended itself to the dark races on the shores of continental Europe, who, in their turn, pay homage to their great men who have earned the plaudits and the distinction by meritorious acts which have been beneficial to the people in general. Among his contemporaries are Albohuntists. None engaged in fierce battles, nor estimated themselves with greater credit than out ever renowned gladiators. Douglass.

Robinson, has just returned from attending the City Minister's Conference held at Cleveland, Ohio. Emanuel A. M. E. Church Many children braved the snow and bitter sold Sunday morning to attend the Junior Church at ten o'clock. The pastor, Rev. Henry Jackson, told a beautiful lesson story and the choir rendered especially good music. At the eleven o'clock service the pastor, Rev. D. Ward Nichols, filled the pulpit anu-praeceded to a large and appreciative congregation. Subject "The Priesthood of all Believers After a most illuminating historical background, Dr. Nichols went on to show how every follower of Christ is his own priest and has a direct communication with God. Senior Missionary Society held its first meeting after the morning service, with Mary Henry, president, presiding. At this meeting Mrs. Amanda Jackson and Mrs. Maude Alloway were ected delegates to the next quarterly convention, which will be on March 6.

The coming of this grand and worthy institution with their high officials who have seen years of service in the fraternal world, is an event to which the church is indebted. Aside from the sermon, there will be short addresses by several of the leaders and special musical numbers by the choir. These occasions are always brilliant from the standpoint of gay and impressive uniforms, as well as from sound and constructive advice booklets. The church will follow the order and the general advancement of the race. In spite of the cold weather, the attendance was good at both services Sunday, John 10:27, 28 was chosen as a text from which Dr. Clark preached a very helpful sermon. "In a general sense, all men, races and nations are but sheep in God's great pasture. God through His son sends the message down through the ages, Little Children, love one another," said Dr. Clark. Continuing, Dr. Clark said, "The man who hates his fellow man hinders the progress of the Kingdom and runs counter to the purpose of the treator. When hatred is admitted, Jesus is dismissed; for the heart that hates has no room for the God of Love. God speaks to all, either in a still voice that makes the conscience, or in thunderless times that shakes the sky. But the proof of hearing is obedience and the reward of obedience is salva. The musical given by the choir MANHATTAN & BROOKLYN RELIGIOUS ACTIVITIES Sunday night was much enjoyed by all. The program consisted of Spirituals with many solos, duets, and the Calm Hour, the organist, is best served congratulated for the splendid program well rendered by the choir under his direction.

Many have been attracted to the church due to these special meetings. The pastor preached and taught short Bible lessons at the end of the song and testimony meetings. For further information came out. The main auditorium where these services are held was almost full. Tracts pamphlets and bulletin concerning divine healing have been printed and circulated in many homes, and with the sincere praying on the part of the church members no doubt in a great measure is directly response to the suffering crowds that have sacrificed their time to come and worship the Lord with us. Our pastor and leader who is famed for his service in the hospel is the medium of attraction of those who are in need of salvation of the soul and healing of the body. Many of both races white and colored, have opened in our church the Lord had them through the instrumentality of Bishop R, C, Lawson, our pastor.

B Twich, whose subject was "Freedom" (John 8:16). In this discourse he cited God as the supernatural vigilant ordaining the time that a leader must come forth to lead the oppressed to freedom: For example, God choosing Moses to lead the children of Israel to freedom, protected him even from infancy. And after many years of preparation physically, mentally and spiritually, Moses led the children of Israel out of bondage. Thus he became the ancient Emancipator. I likewise Abraham Lincoln, being lowly born, through supernatural guidance became the agent of the freedom of the Negro in the United States; thus, saving the Union from dissolution, and is celebrated nationally as the Emancipator. But there is one Emancipator greater than either, older than either of these, yet less celebrated, except by those whose letters and chains of sin have been broken by the Savior's Station" through the sacrifice of his blood. This Great Emancipator is Jesus the Son of God; whoever accepts His sacrifice and acknowledges it is free and free indeed. Our evening service was equally being preceded by the Lord's Supper being preceded by testimonial service and a short discourse by Liceinture G. L. Mack of Paradise Baptist Church, whose subject was "Hatred" Genesis 3:11. He showed how God, loving man, so much, hated the sin in, man and the harm in, man and the world, and the world, for God made him and loved them, gave His life that men, changing from their evil way which they once loved and hating them, would be restored to the natal love of creation. Proving that one must love God and hate the devil or Jesus, one soul was added to the church. Our Lord's service was tendered by Rev F. A. Green of First Baptist Church of Cutehaque, Long Island. We extend a cordial invitation to all students, Sunday school 9:15 a.m., morning service 11 a.m.; B Y P. L. h o p m; evening services, o p m. THE material contrast between the structures with which Booker Washington, E. and the present great, simple and commodious plant is by skillful work be employed one man to bring about. But satisfactory and encouraging as this is, it is but an imperfect achievement for this purpose. The education and annual turning out of all two or three hundred young men and womens for lives useful to themselves and their families is of course a most commensal and annual turning out, but that was only one part of what he did and sought to do. Life purpose is a center like the light of the homely but ever living truths which must form the basis of the Chief Justice, United States Supreme Court.

St. Martin's Chapel "The Faith that Wins" was the title of the discourse last Sunday morning, by the Rev. John H. Johnson, vicar of St. Martin's Chapel, 212nd street, and most numerous text is recorded in the 28th verse of the 15th chapter of the Gospel, according to St. Matthew: "Be it unto thee even as thou wilt." "Faith is an appropriate theme during the whole Leiten season," declared the minister, "since at this time it is the aim and the work of Christ to be the Son of Nazareth. The occasion of this text was a test of a great faith. There was once a mother from Canaan who had a daughter possessed of the Devil. She brought this child to Christ to be healed. After testing her faith by several rebuffs, the rewarded her finally by giving her the gift. What does this mean to us, us? It means that no matter what your difficulties are, you can have what you want if your faith is strong enough and enduring enough to hold out. But this faith is not easy to possess. You can only cultivate it by continual communication with one's own soul." Rev. Johnson was assisted by Rev. McClaine in administering the Holy Communion to the Confirmation Class of 1929 at 9 o'clock Sunday morning. Flowers for the altar were contributed by Mr. and Mrs. L. Austin in memory of their daughter and niece. A playlet entitled "The Imaginary Invalid" will be presented by the Boys' Club, Friday evening, February 28, at 8 o'clock.

Spencer of Morgan opened up the score three minutes after the toss up. Howard tied the score a minute later and gul beneath the basket by Taylor. Jones was getting the tap, but close guarding by Smith and Harris broke up the Morgan formations. Morgan scored four more points on basket by Clarke and Spencer. Howard same back with a goal by Hall. From this point on, the first half assumed the aspect of a duel between Hall, off Howard and Clark, of Morgan. The ball would be passed with lightness like rapidity to one of the court. Hall and Cloke invariably ended these ailies by a neat finish. At hall time Morgangirl went off the floor with a three point advantage, 18-15. In the second half, Howard got possession of the ball. Williams dribbled through, scored and was fouled in the act of shooting. He missed one shot from the foul line but made good on the second, tiring the score of 18-18. Morgan called for time out to collect themselves. Play was resumed and Morgan scored six baskets. Experience began to tell. LanKey lones who had been having trouble keeping Taylor from scoring now opened up. Rap Wheatley, another big gun, started dropping tall for mid court.

Undoubtedly, this was the snappest and classiest affair of season for the Nashville fans were on their tiptoes the whole forty minutes of play. Fisk jumped off to a lead when Yost threw in one from the center of the floor and was later shot by crippshot by Madison. The defense with such good but the Fiskes took advantage of their chances to shoot and won out in the last minute of play by a followed-up shot by Cox. Time after time the scores were tied and it seemed possibly anybody's game. Fisk exhibited a new scoring combination in Yost, Wheedbeer and Madison who had scored 20 points to 13 for Wil伯force at the half being accurately fed by the good passes of Cox and Lawson. For Wil伯force Gibbs led the scoring with ten points although he was in the game only half of the time going by his foot the local route. Clark Lucas and Crisp were the leading roles for the Ohioans, with their set-ups and criss-crosses. Lineup Wil伯force 27: B F P C. Lucas R. F. 0 0 2 Gibbs R. F. 4 1 4 Scurry L. F. 2 0 1 Scott L.

Baseball Owners In Philadelphia, Pa.—Following a meetog called by Edward Bolden, former president of the American Negro Baseball League, held here on Monday, it was announced that there would be no organized baseball in the East this season. Mr. Bolden also announced that Hilldale would have no club this season. He gave as a reason, the facts that their home grounds had been sold and that he was unable to meet the salary demand of his players The abandoning of the League was predicted by The Age several weeks ago. Only the Baltimore Black Sox, the Lincoln Giants and Bacharach Giants responded to Mr. Bolden's call for a meeting Cumberland Posey, manager of the Homestead Grays, had already announced that he would be the manager of the League this season. Alex Pompez, owner and manager of the Cuban Stars, also failed to respond to the call.

An extra period was needed to decide the contest. The visitors had possession of the ball the greater portion of the first half and were leading at the end of the first period 18-12. The Rangers held their lead for a time in the second half until goals by Wood and Harris made the margin slimmer and slimmer. Finally a long heave by Harris ended matters up and the whistle sounded. Harris again came through with a beautiful score in the extra period. This along with a successful toss by Tally was enough to outdistance the visitors who had to be content with one goal.

Md.-A "Dick Merrill" shot by Captain Jones, while the whistle was blowing, earned a 39-38 victory and the city championship of Baytimore Saturday, February 15. The defeated team was the Alerts, a white team. It took a dazzling rally in the last five minutes of play for Morgan to win, over the Methodists. The game was hard fought throughout and marred by considerable roughness. The Bears drew first blood when Spencer hooked one under the basket. Then Stern, around whom the Schriber Brothers offense seemed to resolve, put his team in front by two baskets. The Methodists soon overcame the lead and battled on even terms with their opponents up to half time, which was 17-17. Morgan opened the second half with a field goal but this lead was shortlived for the white boys forged ahead and managed to hold a 4 point lead up to five minutes before the final whistle. In the closing minutes Morgan uncovered a spectacular "Lonkey" Jones shot the winning basket from beyond the half way mark. He was also the high scorer with a total of 17 points.

In the second game, the Hornets returned to their old time passing form, and completely outclassed the visitors from Tuskegee. Murray of labama State was high scorer in both games. Tuskegee Institute, Ala.-Wiley University of Marshall, Tex. will appear on Tuskegee's fall football schedule. Cleve L.

The usual "This is my first time to attend this affair." When friends and acquaintances met Friday evening, February 14, at the annual masquerade ball of Hamilton Lodge, No. 710. Inc., Grand United Order of Oddfellows, staged a street and Eighth avenue, the foregoing statement was usually made by at least of the sightseers. So often it was heard that it became a standing joke. Whether it was one's first of twelfth time to have been present at Hamilton Lodge's widely-advertised and long established spectacular event, the opinion was voiced by all that it was the most extraordinary masquerade kind to do, a New York, doobildful if a similar show could be pulled off anywhere in the United States. Rockland was packed to suffocation with participants and spectators. Hundreds of white couples looking for a thrill elbowed, pushed and shoved with colored onlookers and got an evelful. It was difficult to distinguish sex- Scores of males of pronounced effeminate gracefully disported themselves in beautiful evening goons. They might have been mistaken anywhere for fascinating shebias. Many Types Present. Some more wigs. Others resembled the mesmerizing maiden of boiled hair type. Not a few looked like delicate, painted dolls. White "girls" appeared to be in the majority. It is reported a number came from as far distant as Chicago. Many of the costumes worn were gorgeous, while in several instances the masqueraders walked and danced about displaying shapely limbs, wearing just enough to be within the law. There were also females rigged up in masculine attire. They too, were often mistaken for real sheikhs. On the hallroom floor it was difficult to tell who was who. At The Alhambra Theatre Craddock and Shadney, that classy couple from Broadway vaudeville stars are at the Alhambra.

February 22, 23, 24 De MILLE'S Dramatic Sensation Saturday, February 22, 1930 IN THE REALM OF MUSIC By LUCIEN H. WHITE Satellite Alumnae of Abyssinian Gives Play The Satellite Alumnae of Abysianian Baptist Church is, perhaps one of the most outstanding organizations in the church life of the city, having a membership made up entirely of girls who have grown in it in Abysianian as members of the Satellites Club, graduating automatically into the Alumnae upon entering into married life. It is rather noteworthy fact that the girls evidently marry while young for there are many in the group who seem to be still in their teens. This was more than evident on Thursday night, February 13, when the club presented the tuneful little operetta, "The Wild Rose," by Burrows and Rhys-Herbert, for seldom has the opening of a stage curtain displayed to view a spore attractive array of feminine pulchritude. Ten beauties they were, garbed in the chic black dresses and white aprons of pert young housemaids with armfuls of gorgeous roses of all varieties and colors. And then they sang—lightly gayly and most timefully, not only at the opening, but all through the two acts of the operetta. The leading lady was Martha Duerer, soprano, a member of the church choir, who enacted the role of Rose McCloud," a popular society belle who has become bored with her artificial life and seeks to an diversion by going upon the stage. Mrs Duerer's voice is of pleasant quality, and amply suited to the not too enacting demands of her role. She was gracefully charming and portrayed the character of a peasant, bored young woman with fine effervescence. Most of the humor of the play was furnished by Dorothy Brooks, who in a flaming suit of red, took off the part of Bobott, the boy "Buttons," and Hattie Mitchell as "Miss Writer up the ubiquitous newspaper reporter. Mrs Brooks, in her futile efforts to put her hands in her pants pockets, and with her postman's whistle made a distinctive hit with the audience, which enjoyed Mrs Mitchell's comicalities just as much. One of the most charming of the groups was that composed of the our Debatentes, "Miriam DeAnny, Dora, Thelma Porter, "Flora, Hanne Freeman, "Mally", and Edith the Churchill "Pally". Pretty pres wearing pretty frocks. Others who added to the beauty of the occasion, not only by their good looks but by their histrionic and atal abilities as well, were Mary Simon as "Mary Forsythe", secretary and friend to the leading lady. Vassin Flowers as "Mrs. Fussy", the bookkeeper, Alberta Kline as "Lady an eccentric playwright; Wiley Jackson as "Miss Tukalok", suffragette, Elonist Young as "Miss Doegood, charity worker; Blanche R. Clarke" "Madame Naramis a dressmaker; Estelle Dar as "Madame Feathertop", an winner, Alen Jefferson as "Madame Smellow sweet", a perfumer, and act playing her own part. The ten beauties, playing as "Mads" were Mabel Moore, Estelle McQueens, Alma Lewis, Ethel Donnelly, Julia Clarke, Madeline Coatham, Emma Lee, Angy Brown, Matte Carter and Ruby Roper. The pretetta was directed by Jrs Marian Wallace president of the Annume, assisted by William E. Dew and Mrs Alberta T. Kline, director of girls' work Miss Marian Petitford was at the piano, with music before the curtain and between it is by the Watkins' Orchestra. The sensory, which was strikingly apprehensive, was by Albert Jordan, and the beautiful roses which were carried, the mads and which were scattered all over the stage, were made by the Virginia Alexander and Helen Wallace, daughters of Mrs. Wallace. Notwithstanding the pouring rain which had lasted all day, the lecture room of the church chair, led by Chinmaster Page being out in full numbers in honor of their fellow member, Mrs. Foster star of the play.

By Prince Hall Square Club Marian Anderson, contralto, will give a recital under auspices of the Prince Hall Square Club, Inc., on Sunday afternoon, March 2, at Carnegie Hall. The Prince Hall Square Club, Inc., is an organization composed of men who are members of the Prince Hall Masonic Fraternity, and who are in the employ of the Federal, state and municipal governments. Though primarily formed for social purposes, it has, since its beginning in 1923, taken a real interest in aiding civic affairs and charitable causes, as well as in the promotion of the Negro in all walks of life. Marian Anderson was born in Philadelphia and was studied under Guiseppe Boghetti of New York at Philadelphia. Her first big appearance was as solist with the Philharmonic Symphony Society of Philadelphia. In 1925 Miss Anderson entered the New York Stadium Contest and from three hundred singers from all parts of the country, she was chosen to sing with the New York Philharmonic Orchestra at the Lewison Stadium. Since then she has sung throughout the country and has toured Europe with great success and is everywhere acclaimed as the possessor of 'one of the great contralto voices of our generation. Paul Robeson's Songs Stir 4.000 In London London, SIngland.—Paul Roberson, Negro baritone, gave his only London recital of Negro Spirituals and secular songs of this season before an enthusiastic audience of 4,000 in Albert Hall on Sunday afternoon, February 16. He sang three groups accompanied by Lawrence Brown. Those most applauded were such old favorites as "Go down, Moses," "Deep River" and "Water Boy." When the program had been concluded Mr. Robison was forced to give five encores. Many in the audience clamored for "Old Man River," which Mr. Robison sang in the London production of "Show Boat," but the singer announced he did not yet have rights to that air. Mr. Robison is starting on a concert tour of Great Britain, after which he will return here to commence rehearsals of "Othello," in which he will have the title role. He told The New York Times the actress who will play "Desdemona" had not yet been chosen Madame Marie Selika, of 160 West 136th street, has opened her class of voice cultures at Martin Smith Music School, 139 West 136th street. Carnegie Hall, Sum. Aft., Mar. 2 at 3 Prince Hall Square Club, Inc. Presents MARIAN ACTIVITIES AMONG UNION MUSICIANS BY PERCIVAL OUTRAM Edward E. Bonelli, cordetist and entertainer, recently decided to embrace membership in the N. A. M. A., and filied his application with the necessary fee. After the acceptance of his application, "Bones" was a frequent visitor to his prospective "home." Having been requisitioned by another booker to get some musicians for an engagement, Bonelli claims he hired them direct, told them the price of the engagement, and booked them on their acceptance of the price. The date arrived for the job and it was played by the original men booked and the musicians were imaged by "Bones," who himself played and led the job, using his "bag" (music). One of the musicians avers Mr. Bonelli did state that he (the player) had worked the same place and had received one dollar more than "Bones" had paid him. No further discussion and none of the other musicians complained. Subsequently on Bonelli's entrance to the N. A. M. A. he states he was "jumped on by three members of the N. A. M. A. and severely criticized for "cutting" the musicians' pay. Bonelli says he is surprised and disgusted at the attitude of the members of a club in which he was a prospective member. No question or information was asked of him, he continues, just flat accusation—giving him no voice to explain the situation to these boisterous accusers who had not worked on the job. Anyway this question is Bonelli's complaint. Bonelli the composer who played the job were squately treated, knowing their pay before the job was played, having received in excess of the minimum price presented by Local 802 and the men should not hesitate to file charges against him in the local if they were underpaid. Bonelli says he resents wild charges of unfair dealings which may tend to injure his well known good reputation. Now to close with Mr. Aubrey Brooks. Aubrey was asked in this column weeks ago why he failed to publish the names of other candidates running for office with Bert Hall as members of the Trial Board Local 802. Aubrey, as editor of a periodical, had mentioned Bert's name but had neglected to mention the names of the other two candidates. The office for which the three were running was not competitive—a musician voting for all three would not have injured the chance of election of any one of them. Aubrey has continuously dodged and evaded the specific question, at no time writing an answer to the question In the February issue of his periodical, Editor Brooks has again referred to the matter by making an unsubstantiated, erratic statement impugning this writer by claiming that "Minton and Deacon Johnson" made us run like hell," and "stopped your woof-woofing." The article written by Aubrev was handed to both Minton and Deacon, who carefully read it. Minton said "I don't know what he is talking about. For the many years we have known each other, and the many talks we have had we are and have always been amused." Deacon's reaction was, "I wonder what he is referring to. He evidently does not know you when he says you are a runner." So, Aubrey, you will have to go farther afield to get cohorts to aid you. Why hang out the distress signal? Need help, eh? An editor, to get and keep the respect of his readers, should be on the square, and not becloud an issue with false statements. Oh yes, ethics and dignity enter in somewhere. Consider this matter closed as far as this column is concerned as apparently you dare not answer the question. MUSIC JOTTINGS The Harlem Conservatory, 257 Lenox avenue, gave a song recital last Sunday afternoon in the spacious rooms of the school. The attendance was large.

McFadden, white, associate editor of The Wave, delivered a admirable address, subject "The Negro As I See Him." The speaker said in part: "here is no such thing as race inferiority. The Negro, if given equal opportunity, will describe his own limitations. The so-called Race Problem is the white mans problem and not the Negroes. The Negro is a friend, loyal, religious. In our nation, there is no need of this lynch and mob rule, lawlessness should have no place on our shores. Why have the Negro anymore than any other race? If they are not lynchers, lynch anhow, why not lynch all. Let protection be granted all alike; special privileges to none. I am for a square deal to all." Dr. E. A. Clarke of Bethel Church, New York City, discussed the same subject giving reminiscences of his life and work with Negroes in civic, social and ecclesiastical affairs. He said President Cleveland gave special attention to the reform of civil service. This was done creditably during his administration. His average of 90% in the examination as patient office appointee warranted the position but it was given over great presidence. The Civil Service is not so fair as it was then for photographs must accompany applications now which tell of the race of the applicant and makes it difficult for appointment.

He also stated that $30,000 worth of common stock in the company had been issued and the agents would be given the opportunity to share in the profits of the company through purchase of this stock It was explained that the principal reason for the effect against the private teaching of the system was, because so many people were taking the course that those who were teaching indiscriminately were making harmful competition for themselves and other Apex students, who were old, the Apex System of Beauty Culture has grown to considerable proportions throughout the East. According to Mr. Nanton the company propose expanding its activities to include the whole of the country. Miss Anna Carter To Study Dental Surgery Miss Anna E.

HOGANS PULLMAN COURTESY Pullman courtesy, which is one of the service features on which the Pullman organization, as every one of its supervisors will tell you, sets a high price, and whose observance the organization declares should be exercised by all its employees, on all occasions and under current circumstances recently been questioned as to its consistency in the matter of civility. The question concerned The Pullman News, the family organ of all the big and little members of the Pullman industrial household; and was brought up by a man who is also a newspaper man. This man, who is connected with an influential New York journal, publishing items regarding the activities of these members and their families that the Pullman News accorded a certain courtesy to some of these members which appended to given to the other members. Plainly put, the question was this: Why was the common title of "Mrs." and "Miss" less used when reporting the activities of women relatives of Negro employees of the plantation, than the usage of these same titles when the of women relatives of white employees, of practically the same working status as the Negroes, were mentioned? He had, he added, scanned the pages of the Pullman magazine at various times and discerned which discrimination which he had noted. The conversation was with this writer. In reply to the question, I told him that that was a feature of the magazine to which I here corresponded, but that I thought he was somewhat in error in his opinion. Well, it may not, he said, he the policy of the magazine to discriminate in the matter, but the employees who send in those notes certainly colored women, and "Miss," when mentioning colored women. In reply to that comment, I reminded him that the Pullman Man carried the activities of all Pullman employees, and that this building was to be expected in the items that pertained to Negev. He agreed with me there by saying he wasn't including the South for he was well aware of its attitude towards the Negro. Nevertheless, I think I left him unconvinced that this courtesy was sectional, and not general. As I said, however, I had never paid that feature of the magazine any attention before, so to my surprise the terrorist wasn't general. I decided to give the pages of this organ a thorough reading. I am convinced that it is not. I have before me now a current issue of the magazine. On page 399, under the heading of "Portraits, Chicago South district this item is to be observed: "We were here at the station: "Mr. C. Hamilton in a street car accident at Kansas city, recently at I-80 she has improved." On page 350 "Porters' items from Chicago Central district, Congratulations are extended to N.

C., on Monday. From the Boston Southern district, page 355, this item is noted: "The women's auxiliary of the P. P. B. A. joined in making the alfaf (it was a testimonial to a re-turnage present) Mrs. Foulk a bathrobe on behalf of the auxiliary." In the Washington district notes, the charity work of the Ladies Auxiliary of the P. P. B. A., during the past Christmas, is mentioned with this addition; during the current season, Cumber (left) president of the Auxiliary, and Mrs. R. G. Rhodes, secretary, starting out to distribute some of the baskets". A picture of the two officers with their Christmas baskets follows the item. The names of other members of the baskets are given, and each one is mentioned with the title of "Mrs." In the Kansas City note, the wife of Porter D. G. Emery is mentioned as Mrs. Emery; and in the Salt Lake district's column, it is learned, Mrs. S. Douglass, alfaf, Mrs. S. Douglass, alfaf, to chorester for consultation has returned, and is in much better health." Scanning, however, the Southern districts notes nary a "Mrs." or "Miss" is to be seen in the "Porters" section. Wherever sex is noted, it is Porters So and So's. It is also from the Atlanta district, laundry department, evidently, white workers Mrs. and Miss are freely used in The News reports. Yet, I would not say this courtesy hurdling was a general thing with the magazine, in as, as I thought many of the newspapers' age is in infancy. The Pulman News did print caricatures and plues of Negro life, but this was protested by some of the Negro employees with the result this discrepancy was discontinued during February's issue as an example, the charge of discrimination against the Pulman organ doesn't appear to be sustained or justified. Mott Haven Yard News My, oh my, what changes time and tide have wrought, that is, in the estimation of some porters in this district. Or, another way of saying it, but, gracious me, how the mighty have fallen in recent times. Years ago porters running out of this terminal actually shed tears or joy when they were assigned to such trains as the New Haven's brokerbooker, Express and the Middletown porters, now, none but the most hardy wish to have anything to do with these New England speeders. Only recently, an extra porter—just think of that—a recruit, begged that he be not assigned to servicing the terminal points, asked why he replied "Porters who run on those trains are welcome to their tips. I'll prefer the use of my legs." He had reference to the recent order that porters operating on those two trains must stand continually between the terminal points, New York and the Beau City. The head sign-out man at Mott Haven is rather an important person with the extra porter. Moreover, he is an object of feelings. He is either heartily delighted Henry Rohrsben, better known as "Hen" by most of the extra boys, is no exception to that rule. But Henry happens to be in the latter class with the boys. There is at least one Pullman official who finds the column "Things Seen, Heard and Done Among Pullman Employees." in The Age interesting. This official is C. C. Logan, head Pullman supervision at Mott Haven Vards. Entering his office one day last week, this gentleman deeply absorbed in the weekly items of the column. Another well-known and well-hiked veteran is on the seriously ill list. He is H. P. ("Pink") Darden. For several years the available "Pink" has been bothered with on of his eyes. This eye has become so badly affected of late that its removal is necessary. To do this, the former P. E. P secretariat is suffering from a severe attack of pleurisy. The sick man lives at 402 West 153rd street. AMONG THE MAIDS Miss Mary Freeman daughter of S J Freeman, welfare worker in the New York district, met recently with a serious accident in Chicago.

Judging by what we see and hear there must be some truth in it. We have noticed from time to time that some of our Congressional Limited crews include in their lunch a bag of peanuts. Some of our new men are beginning to stray away from their interests, even though we do not matter what you tell some people, it don't do them any good. We often wonder why some of our young porters always try to make believe that they have been in the service a long time. Boys, the minute you start to talking, anyone with experience can tell you are about the service when they get off the cars. They are too tired and if you give the service required, on a Pullman car, you will have something else to talk about. Think this over and stop so much dead heading and so much "I told conductor so and so that." was a man and I want to tell you that if you carry yourself as a man and do your work as a good man would do, I am of the opinion that you will have no cause to complain about being treated any other way than right. But if you sit in a section and let your car get dirty, you ought to know that the conductor is going to take you to the car; and he doesn't always say if in the kindest way. And when you to think it over you can hardly blame him; for any man who would sit down and wait for someone else to tell him to get up and do his work, don't deserve much consideration. Remember if the conductor allows you to walk the road with a dirty car, he will be halleled on the carpet and handed a reprimand and five days book suspension which is enough to make anyone a bad man, more especially when it is the other fellow's fault. I must call your attention to a fact. You have certain duties to perform on the road and do not perform these duties you will be taken to task in regards to same. So watch your steps and get on the job and be real porters. H. W. Stalling, our sign out clerk was called to Madison, N. J., February 12, on account of the death of his cousin, Patrick Stallings.

Army Levine, victim of a mutilated Orilla, Ga., who was hanged with a heavy chain, the body rudled with bullets, then taken down and burned on a pile of logs. The accompanying photograph, developed and printed by The Film Shop, 123, Cotton avenue, Macon, Ga., was taken as the body of Levine hung suspended in mutilation, and shows a group of the "cultured Georgia gentlemen" looking upon their handwork, with a partial view of some of the automobiles which concealed them to the scene on the other side.

Two Men Die When They Jump From Elevator Two Men Die When They Jump From Elevator Detectives after an investigation have declared accidental the death of two agen in the Mt. Morris Apartments, 2 West 120th street Wednesday as they leaped from an elevator which was beyond their control. The two men, Louis John Evans, 50, Negro porter, who lived in the building, and Michael Terravicha, 30, 613 East 138th street, Italian ceeman, were found dead at the bottom of the elevator shaft shortly before 8 o'clock in the morning by tenants who had heard a terrific drashing noise as the elevator rose toward the seventh floor, ripping off doors on its way. Tenants told detectives that Evans loaded the elevator with large refuse cans each morning and then went to the top floor where he began collecting garbage from the various apartments. It was believed that the ceeman, who was on his way to collect ice bills, was helping the porter. It is believed that the cans shipped out of place as the elevator passed the first floor and as the car started up to the seventh floor the cans ripped off the doors from floor to floor. The automatic control on the elevator had been set for the seventh floor but it is thought that the men control decided to try their luck by jumping from the car at the fifth floor. Both slipped and fell down the five floors to the bottom where they were almost instantly killed. Judge Saves "Fourth Offender" From Life Sentence to Prison Judge Saves "Fourth Offender" From Life Sentence to Prison William Poppore, 39, giving an address of 22 Bancroft place, was saved from life imprisonment on February 13 when County Judge Mel anghilin accepted from him a plea of guilts of petty larceny. Poppore had been indicted for burglary on the third degree. On February 13 he had entered an apartment at 1700 Pacific street and had taken a pair of trousers. He was caught leaving the premises by the tenant Olive Carty. Inasmuch as the police record of Poppore showed he already had already served two terms in Sung Sing for burglary and one in the city prison for grand larceny, Judge Mel anghilin would have been compelled to leave. He had Poppore gone on trial and been found guilty of a felony. I am firmly convinced" said Judge Melangin in accepting the misdemeanor plea that it is in cases such as this, a judge is expected to use ordinary intelligence and exercise a sense of justice in accepting such a plea as will not make mandatory a sentence of life imprisonment. Judges will lend little cooperation to the task of solving the problem of crime and the criminal by "buller stamp" dispositions based neither on intelligence nor justice.

THE NEW YORK AGE Apostolic Church Takes Over a Southern School The Rt. Rev. R. G. Lawson, founder and first bishop of the Church of Christ of the Apostolic Faith, is in the South this week completing arrangements for the taking over of a large piece of property in Southern Pines, N. C., for an industrial school under auspices of his denomination. The property, formerly known as the Industrial Union and Orphanage of America, occupies two city blocks in Southern Pines. The union and orphanage was founded by the Rev. Mr. Henderson of Boston, who recently died. Before leaving, Bishop Lawson informed The Age that the orphanage would be continued, but that the other part of the institution would be converted into a regular industrial school, and Prof. H. Hill, principal of the high school of Clifton Forge, Va., would probably be selected as the head of the new institution. The bishop added that he would personally supervise the activities for a while, and would seek to raise an educational fund for its maintenance.
