The subject was predicated upon a costume ball recently given at Rockland Palace by one of the local internal organizations, and former balls have given this annual affair the reputation of being out of the ordinary.
Attended the Ball
Having heard from various, sources as to the nature of this affair, Bishop Lawson, after consultation with his church and officers, decided to attend this year, and he did so in company with a church officer and a church member.
And so, on Sunday night, the commodious church auditorium wasammed to capacity when 'Bishop Lawson announced as his text "Save yourself from this untoward generation," taken from Acts 2:40, and his subject was as advertised, the 'Pairs' Ball" with a subtitle "The Foggots' Ball, and What It Means In the Light of the Scriptures."
In beginning his sermon, Bishop Lawson disclaimed a purpose to discuss, with organization, believing that people have a right to organize for mutual benefit and pleasure, and declaring that the benefit of such bodies are obvious to any unbassed observer. Continuing, he said
To Save the Perverta
Neither am I here to denounce, but to instruct the people who are to unfortunate as to be born with homo-sexual tendencies, for they, too, are human beings. Therefore, the Christian ministry has a duty to them that they may know the power of an endless life through Christ, that breaks the power of cancelled sin, and sets the prisoner free."
Bishop Lawson then explained in that order that the people may know from the Scripture, the what, why and how of these things—"What the Bible has to say relative to 'farries' and homo-sexualism"—be decided to attend this hall. He said "Acting as a Christian minister I acted within the scope of my mission to preach the gospel, and to follow in the prophetic steps of Erkelau who was commanded (Liezek 8.1-13) to 'go in and, behind the wicked abominations they (the people) do here.'"
After telling of conferring with his church and officers, he told of leaving the church after night service, with his officer and member, and being obliged, because of the throng of cars of all types, to park his car a block away from the Casino. Said he.
Lost For Words
"After parking the car, we proceeded to the dance hall, purchased tickets and were directed in. A light that challenged description met our gaze. We were lost for words then, and even now, in a measure to describe what we saw. Therefore we call to our aid the report of Ms. Gerry. New York reporter to the Baltimore American and the report of the reporter from The New York Age. "Gerry," in her report, said. From front to back, from side to side from ceiling to floor, a colorful, hilarious mass of people surged back and forth. Every box, every bag, every stair and rail, was covered with eager people who had come—as early as ten o'clock—to men WHO OUT-WOMENED WOMEN AND WOMEN WHO OUT-MENED MEN, and for their entertainment there paraded a collection of gorgeous creatures decked in suits, satins, leather and peels and for the first time, a good number of the correct tuxes in smart women with heavy, throaty toes."
The New York Age said in part in the report, "Wilhelm Palace was packed to utilization with participants and visitors. Hundreds of white couples living for a thrill allowed, pushed or shoved with colored onlookers and got an exult.

Bishop R. C. LAWSON
Many Types Present.
"It was difficult" to distinguish sexes. Scores of males of pronounced effeminate traits gracefully disported themselves in beautiful evening gowns. They might have been mistaken anywhere for fascinating shebas.
"Some wore wigs. Others resembled the mesmerizing maiden of bobbed hair type. Not a few looked like delicate painted dolls.
"White 'girl's' appeared to be in the majority. It is reported a number came from as far distant as Chicago. Many of the costumes worn were goregous, 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 sheiks On the ballroom floor it was difficult to tell who was who"
What Does It All Mean?
"Now, what does all this, mean, and whence cometh all this? What does the Bible have to say about this matter; and as this is becoming a fad and is wide-sweep, and as many are interested in the sex problem, I think it high time for the ministry of our city to raise their voice against this iniquitous traffic in degeneracy, when five hundred men cavorted, squirmed and wiggled around with each other, and hundreds of other people looking down from balcony and side walls, held their high ceilings of sin unabashed, ye hazenly, drinking and flirting, blaspheming and making mock of themselves' and God.
"And many indulge in these abnormalities in the spirit of bravado, simply because they do not wish to appear green; others take pleasure in them as a new diversion, not participating in the actual deeds, but take pleasure in them that do them; and this city seems to have forgotten God. The city that out-Sodoms Sodom a veritable valley of death to spiritual life, and christian ideals and sacred tradition.
"Hypocrites like hyenas in high places, leopards in human form, move stealthily from street to street lions of power thundering their commands to henchman vassals and slaves to crime, wolves of avarice and selfishness that desorce the under dog; the puppets, that terrible treacherous reptile, the snake who sells his birthright, his race, for a mess of pottage, in safe arm that children are not safe upon that they may adopt, whether little girls or little boys, from these degenerate hyenas which so拙来 satisfy their base desires at the expense of youth

Joseph Prince, Alleged Numbers Banker, Fails In An Attempt To Secure a Divorce From His Wife
After a trial lasting three days, a jury in Special Term, Part 6, of the Supreme Court returned a verdict in favor of the defendant in the case of Joseph Prince, of 295 West 150th street, against Francisca Prince, of 210 West 147th street.

Raper's Own Daughter Is Victim of Another Man With Father Knowing
Another case of rape in Harlem on a child was brought to light on February 17 through the efforts of Detectives Webber and Robinson of the West 135th street police station. The detectives were walking through 117th street when they heard a woman scream in the tailor shop at No. 51. Upon investigating they found William Marshall, 32, proprietor of the shop, threatening his wife with a knife. Marshall was placed under arrest and Mrs. Marshall brought to the police station for questioning. She told the detectives that she had just been told that her husband had raped the ten-year old daughter of a neighbor, and when she accused him, he flew into a rage and tried to stab her.
Further investigation by the detectives, and the questioning of the little girl in the case, revealed that another man, one Albert Raven of 47 West 117th street, had raped the eleven-year old daughter of Marshall, the man under arrest. The relations of the two men with these children had been going on since last December, according to one of the girls. She told the detective that Marshall knew of Raven's relations with his own daughter, but never made any protest. She told her to run errands for Marshall and Raven, and in that way came to spend much time in the tailor shop.
After a hearing on February 25, both men were held in $1,500 bail for the action of the Grand Jury.
The two girls were placed in the custody of the Children's Society.

MARCUS GARVEY IN DUAL ROLE: REELECTED COUNCILMAN FEB.12 BUT SENTENCED PRISON FEB.21
Marcus Garvey Again Elected Councilman In Jamaica, B. W. L.
The Negro World, New York's official organ of the Universay Negro Improvement Association, states in its issue of February 22 that Marcus Garvey, President-General of the U. N. I. A., had been returned, as Councillor from the Urban Ward, No. 3, to the seat in the Kingston and St. Andrew Corporation. Mr. Garvey had formerly been a member of the Corporation, but while he was serving a sentence of three months in jail for contempt of court, the Jamaican body declared his seat vague because he was absent from three consecutive meetings of the Council. In his re-election on February 12 he had no opposition.

before Justice Black on Feb-
Thomas of 2087 Eighth avenue, testified that Mrs Prince was with them until 11 o'clock on the night of September 16. Mrs Prince said she went directly to bed upon her arrival home. The defense attorney alleged that the whole case was a frame up on the picture of Mrs Prince detective. It was charged the Mr. Prince, since he had become affluent, desired to get rid of his wife for a younger woman.
Gives Quick Verdict.
Judge Black charged the jury to bring in a verdict of "yes" or "no" on whether they believed Mrs Prince had committed adultery at the time and place charged, and after only a few minutes absence from the court room, the verdict was brought in favoring the defendant.
A counter action for separation has been brought by Mrs Prince and she as awarded temporary alimony of $8 per week.
Former Assemblyman James Male was the attorney for the plaintiff in the divorce action, and Frank R. was the attorney of record for the defendant.
"WHAT THE COURIER ACCOMPLISHED"
In its issue of February 22, the Pittsburgh Courier, which calls itself "The World's Best Weekly," carries a 2-column cut, depicting five of the nine colored boys employed as messengers by the Western Union Telegraph Co. in the branch office at 200 West 133th street, New York City. A caption over the cut, also 2-column wide, was "WHAT THE COURIER ACCOMPLISHED."
The inscription under the cut THE CAUSE was that on FEBRUARY 8 the Courier printed an editorial and cartoon deriding the fact that the telegraph companies failed to employ race help. And that "THE EFFECT" was that the Western Union had released the cut of the five boys.
The Courier did not state that its editorial on February 8 was based on a news story printed exclusively in THE NEW YORK AGE ON JANUARY 25, two weeks earlier, to the effect that colored girls and boys would be hired by the Western Union, and that the Courier editorial tried to cast doubt upon the authenticity of the story. Nor did the editorial state that in its issue of February 8, the same week of the "deriding" editorial, The New York Age not only printed the names of the ten girls who were being given the two weeks intensive training preparatory to the selection of four for immediate employment, but also the names of the thirteen boys who had been employed as messengers, nine as regulars and four as substitutes.
And following this up, The New York Age, in its issue of February 15, printed an exclusive photograph of the NINE regular messenger boys who started work on Monday, February 10, with their names, and that of the FOUR GIRLS who went to work as counter girls.
"WHAT THE COURIER ACCOMPLISHED" seems to have been to try, two weeks after it was printed, to discount the accuracy of the story printer in The Age on January 25; and then, a week after the full and complete story had been printed (February 15) exclusively by The Age, with a photo of the entire staff of regulars, to come out (February 22) with a cut of FIVE of the boys, made from a photo taken by Edward Lewis, a young lad who works for the Amsterdam News as Boy Scout editor and photographer, and printed in that paper on February 15, saying it had been released by the Western Union.
This leads up to the question, "What Did the Courier Accomplish in the Hiring of Negro Girls as Clerks and Boys as Messengers in the West 135iii Street Branch Office?"
"What The Age Accomplished" was to print the story of the promised employment of colored clerks and messengers TWO WEEKS before any paper in the country; and to print the only photo of the entire group of nine messenger boys, other New York papers of February 15 printing only a picture similar to that printed in The Courter on February 22

Body Votes Reprimand.
Dr. Petioni, deferred, himself, declares, that the letter was his personal expression, and that the Society as a body was not concerned with it.
There was considerable discussion of the matter before any action was taken, but it was finally decided that Dr. Petioni should be reprimanded; that the Society 'endorses and approves the recent reorganization as Harlem Hospital'; and that letters of appreciation and thanks be sent the Commissioner of Hospitals, Dr. J. G William Greeff, and to Dr. George D Stewart, chairman of the Committee of Survey.

The Formal Statement.
The following is the formal statement issued by the Society, through its president, Dr. Middleton:
"At its last stated meeting, The North Harlem Medical Society took the following action concerning the recent reorganization at Harlem Hospital. "1. It was voted that a statement he issued to the press informing the public that the statement issued by Dr. C. Augustin Petoni about the Harlem Hospital situation was not authorized by the Society; that said statement represented only the views of Dr Petoni; that Dr Petoni be reprimanded for writing such a statement which tended to give the public a false impression of the Society's attitude. Approves Reorganization. "2. It was voted that The North
BISHOP LAWSON NAMED PRESIDENT OF SCHOOL IN SOUTHERN PINES
The Rt. Rev. R. C. Lawson of New York City, founder and first bishop of the Church of Christ of the Apostolic Faith, was unanimously elected president of the Industrial Union School and Orphanage of West Southern Pines, N. C. last week, by the executive board and trustees.
The property, which occupies two city blocks in Southern Pines, will continue as an industrial school under the leadership of Bishop Lawson, successor to J. M. Hender-salam.
The bishop, in commenting upon his selection as president, said that he would seek to raise an educational fund for the maintenance of the school and that he hoped to induce one of the officers of the Dunbar National Bank to become treasurer of the fund.
Harlem Medical Society endorses and approves the recent reorganization at Harlem Hospital, feeling that it gives to the Negro-medical profession a recognition hitherto lacking and furnishing a splendid example to the remainder of the country to "go thou and do likewise"; that the service of the hospital to the community and to the profession will be measurably increased by the action of the Commissioner of Hospitals.
"3. It was voted that letters of appreciation and thanks for their sended service be sent to the president and secretary to Dr. J. J. William Greeff, Commissioner of Hospitals and to Dr. George D. Stewart, chairman of Committee of Survey.
"This statement is issued by the president of the society with the authorization of the North Harlem Medical Society."
Dr. Pationi's Statement
Dr. Petioni, in his capacity as secretary up to the time of his resignation, has released a transcript of the happenings at the meeting under the heading, "Wright Steam Roller Carries the Day; Secretary Quilts Under Fire." In this transcript, the secretary writes that Dr. Petioni "in his statement had charged that it was a matter of politics and not merit or medicine, which was at the bottom of the appointments; that Dr. Wright, the former president, who had a hand in the appointments, had not kept faith with the Society in its recommendations; that injustice was done to several deserving men who had served in the Out-Patient Department for several years."
Continuing. Dr. Petioni, had charged that "many of the positions were given to obscure men and veritable tyros; and that this might be detrimental to the cause of Negro representation in the city hospitals. He had admitted that it was a commendable forward step from the point of view of greater numbers on the staff. He further stated he had no personal grievance in the matter."
The transcript continued: Mr. Petioni said the statement was sent in the first person, and it was clear from the context that it was a personal and not an official statement. He strongly defended his right to liberty of action, and challenged any one present to dispute the correctness of his statements in the matter under discussion." Notwithstanding, the reprimand motion was carried, followed immediately by the resignation as secretary of Dr. Petioni.
Sav Wright Was Scored.
Talking to an Age representative, Dr. Petioni called attention to a statement in the transcript to the effect that "not a single physician present ventured to defend the appointments." exceeding Dr. Louis T. Wright. The transcript said: "As to the appointments, Dr. Wright was severely excoriated in the discussion which followed and remarks were made by the president, Dr. C. C. Middleton; the vice president, Dr. Oma H. Price; the treasurer, Dr. J. J. Jones; the secretary, Dr. C. A. Petioni; and Drs. Leroy Pelmy, Hudson Oliver, Albert Armstrong, Lucien Brown among others. Not a single physician present ventured to defend the appointments with the exception of Dr. Wright, who attributed them to the committee appointed to make the survey and the Commissioner of Hospitals. He further said that in such matters justice could not be done to every one, and stated that more appointments will be made in the future."

3 KILLED, 4 MISSING WHEN POCKETS RELEASE 900 TONS OF COAL
Three men are known dead and four others are still said to be missing when 900 tons of coal spilled from two collapsed steel pockets at the McNulty Brothers Coal Company, 171st street and the Harlem River, Friday afternoon at 3 o'clock.
The bodies of two colored workmen, Brown Stewart, 50, of 364 West 119th street, and Walter Adams, 50, of 268 West 14th street, have been recovered along with that of a white man about 50 who is known only as O'Rourke. Two other colored workmen, George Cotter, *252 West 14th street and Jesses Pilgram, 20, of 2840 Eighth avenue, were treated at Morissagia Hospital for minor injuries. They were partially buried in the deluge of coal. The shed, which held six pockets of 500 tons capaciy each, was newly constructed and was being filled with coal at the time of the crash. Immediately after the crash, firemen, police engeney crews and lightning company employees with volunteer crews of operators drove steam showers to the site, where search for other workers believed to be buried in the mountain of coal.
Because some of the men were part-time workers and other got paid by the 'job, company officials could not tell by a check-up of employees how many were missing but it is believed that 4 men are still missing

Negro Baker Is Ousted From Union Because of Color; Was Foreman
"The lot of the colored man is hard," said Arthur F Cunningham, 100 West 119th street, a master baker, who has been foreman in some of the biggest bakeries in the city, for he has recently been Food Workers Union, which has recognized him as a foreman baker since September, 1926.
Mr Cunningham came to the city in May, 1926, from Norfolk, Va., where he had been a foreman in the city, and immediately after coming to the city he went to Denville, N. J., where he worked for a whole season as a pastry baker.
After the season was up, Mr Cunningham came to New York and became a member of the Union, where he was recognized as a forman. And then came a day when union officials called him to an executive meeting, refused to allow him to work in union shops and took aawk his
One of the officials, a German, told him "you should know that you are not wanted in this union," he was dismissed from the union.

Alcidian Club Gives
Seventh Annual
Pre-Lenten Affair
The Alcidian Club, an association of Harlemites, many of whom are well known in the business and professional life of Harlem, was host to 700 guests at the Rockefeller Avenue, on Friday last week. It was called the seventh pre-Lenten reception of the club but that was merely a formal description for the affair.
To be sure, it couldn't be fairly spoken of as a revelry, yet, as the members of the club created hall, the assembly of expensively gowned women and corrected men and the hundreds of tables, on which reposed those things that are rather conducive to conviviality, it was obvious that the term reception" was a most tame name for a Roman fee with all the trimmings.
However, there need he no cavilating about what The Alecandrians choose to call their annual fete. Lake in everything else, the name of the affair was simply incidental to the delightful and highly enjoyable features furnished by the hosts. Those features, besides the ones already mentioned, were the serving of a course dinner, a revue program from the Lenox Club and dancing. The musical program was furnished by John C. Smith's Society Orchestra. Officer's office were George Grorger president, J. C. Branson, vice-president, D. Edward Smith, financial secretary; Dr. L. R. Middleton, corresponding secretary, and James H. Thomas, treasurer.

STRAY HORSE PROVIDES A POLICE PROBLEM 135th St. Station Cops Up Against It As Nag Gets Stuck In Door
Early Thursday morning, Patrolman Turner of the West 135th street police station, while patrolling his heat, found a stray horse wandering aimlessly down the street with apparently no destination in mind. Now the books say nothing about the procedure of taking a stray horse, so putting a call through to the police station, Patrolman Turner got Sergeant Neeley on the phone and asked him what should be done. The sergeant was nonplussed, so he asked Lieutenant Sheridan, who was on desk duty. And here's where the story lies.
The littenant was so engrossed in what he was doing, that he mistook the sergeant's question, and told the sergeant to tell the patrolman to "bring him in."
Always obedient, Patrolman Turner brought his arrest in. But the horse was a little too large for the station house doors, and when the patrolman tried to squeeze the horse through the door, the horse stuck, half-way in and half-way out.
While the master minds of New York's finest treed to figure how to free the horse, who was being Patrolman Branched came to the rescue. It seemed that Patrolman Branch had had some experience with horses, being a former mule driver in the army, a little coogee, a dog, a horse, and the poor horse was free, at least from detention by the doors.

YWCA CLASSES OFFER VARIETY OF OPPORTUNITIES Educational Department Exhibit Attracted Much Attention
It is highly probable that few people saw the class exhibits during the anniversary without a desire to join a class. It is astonishing that such marvelous results come from such simple processes: one shows how, and in many cases, the learning is, and take lovely parchment lamp shades which are highly expensive in the shops. They are both simple and inexpensive to make. So it is with other kinds of home decorations and with French flower making and millinery. Even dressmaking and designing taken step by step, loses its beauty and its value, these and many other subjects have just begun and there is still time to register!
February and March are "low peak" health months—low for health high for sickness and it is the time when special health precautions must be taken. Exercise is a precaution most vital and most often neglected in the shut-in city life. The Physical Department offers a special pool and gym—that is as much fun as benefit. Register now!

Several teachers of our group, who are part of the faculty of Public School 83, at Schenectady avenue and Dean street, were among the 63 teachers who, with the principal, Maurice A. Garfinkle, received official tribute from the Board of Education at a special meeting Wednesday night. It was for their "cool thinking, quick action and mentoring behavior" when an explosion on Thursday, February 13, threw the school into an unknown peril. It was the greatest demonstration in appreciation of heroism of a principal and his faculty ever accorded by the Board of Education, it is said.
Faculty members, and nearly 100 students of Public School 83, packed the auditorium of the board at 500 Park avenue. Manhattan, to hear their praises sung.
Among the teachers of our group who were named in the resolution of tribute were Augusta M. Duckett, Helen D Fanim, Sara Pearson and Harriet C Barre. The resolution was presented by C. C Mollenhauer, Brooklyn member of the board.

Concord Baptist Church
On last Wednesday the splendid fellowship which exists between the Greenwood Baptist Church and Concord Church was again renewed by the visit of Dr Francis W. O'Brien to the pulpit of Rev James B Adams. A large group of the Greenwood members came also and enjoyed with the home church the preaching of Mr. O'Brien and the singing of the Concord hour. These pastors express with our hostitation the feeling that this type of fellowship meeting between pastors and churches will do far more for the bettering of race relations than all the protest meetings and mass gatherings of a lifetime

Sunday morning, Rev. Mr. Adams preached from the subject, "Surely They Will Reverence His Son," saying, among other things, that "God is going to bless man according as man becomes master of God's creation and handwork." In the evening previous to the baptismal service and a sermon on "the test of a Fruitful Ministry," Mr. Adams gave some facts about the work and many various denominations for Negro education and the present policy of the white Baptists to make no money raising efforts for Negro education until 1932.
Fleet Street Memorial
A. M. E. Zion Church
Through the pastor of Fleet Street First A. M. E. Zion Church, Rev. W. C. Brown, God communicated the revelation of Himself in terms that any man could comprehend in both 'the morning and evening messages.
Having a thorough knowledge of prevailing intellectual conceptions enables the pastor of this church to adapt himself to his audiences at all times. The deep impression made and left in the minds of the listeners, is due to the fact that there is always something in his messages for everyone.
The Sunday school and Christian Endeavor services were interesting and uplifting. The leaders and workers of these departments are making desperate efforts to equip themselves for the work in these departments, that those who attend this church-school may get the best information. Working toward this goal, the general subpentendent, Frank A Ray, together with fifteen other workers attended the annual Church School Conference, A.M. E Zoon Church at Portchester, New York, during the past week-end, which proved to be the greatest convention of its kind held in this section.
Fleet Street Church mourns the loss of one of its loyal and active members in the person of Mrs. Amanda Hill, whose remains were funeralized in the church on Wednesday evening, February 19. The pastor's eulogy, the crowded edifice, the floral pieces all were a high tribute to her worth throughout her many years of service. Both the senior and junior choirs participated in the service.

THE TARIFF IN THE SENATE.
A good many years ago a Democratic candidate for the Presidency was held up to derision by Republicans and Democrats alike because he insisted that the tariff was a local issue. Some years later a Democratic partisan aroused Republican scorn by training a parrot to reiterate the declaration that the tariff is a tax which the orthodox Republican would not admit. A greater interest in the principles of tariff making and a more intelligent handling of the subject, with regard to the schedules, has shown that very often the tariff is a local issue, in that it benefits or harms a certain industry, and in all cases it is bound to be a tax, because it is always added to the cost of the goods and passed on to the ultimate consumer.
Tariff making by the present Congress has, therefore, been regarded with more than ordinary interest, because of the fact that more people have come to realize that changes in the tariff law, nearly always increases, are reflected in additions to the cost of living. The present revision of the tariff was undertaken in response to the demand for farm relief, it being the intention to help the farming industry by placing a duty on foreign farm products, so that the farmer might be relieved of competition and secure higher prices for his domestic products.
But the process of revision did not run in the right direction. The House of Representatives gave some slight protection to the farmer, but also proceeded to increase the tariff on many kinds of manufactured goods, thereby increasing the profits for American manufacturers but also increasing the cost of these goods to the people at large, including the farmers. While a protective tariff on hides might add a few cents to the price that the Western cattle raiser received for his cattle, he found that an increased tariff on boots and shoes resulted in a greater increase in the price of footgear for himself and family. An increase in the tariff on sugar resulted in increasing the cost of the household budget with only a raise in the price of sugar beets as the farmer's reward. The same thing was found to be true in nearly all items of clothing and farming utensils.
This revision of the tariff did not commend itself to the farming interests, nor indeed to any of the class of ultimate consumers. The women voters especially were not pleased to find that these tariff changes would add materially to the cost of women's clothing, as was pointed out by a woman representative from New Jersey. So when the tariff bill came to the Senate, the Western Senators and the Democrats combined to reduce the schedules that had been increased in the House. The process of confining the changes to the original purpose of aiding the farmers has been lost sight of and the revision of the tariff has taken the old lines of increasing profits for the manufacturers of the East, with but scant regard for the farmers and the community at large.
Now, the Senate appears in the unfamiliar role of the protector of the farmer and popular interests in general, including the ultimate consumer. This is a strange role for the Senate, which has always been looked upon as the champion of the Trusts and the Interests, or Big Business in general. But, it must be remembered that the Senate is not what it used to be, since its members are now elected by popular vote. Time was when the State legislators elected United States Senators, without any help from the people. Now Senators have to get the votes of the average citizen the same as any other candidate. This has worked a great change in the kind of men elected to the Senate. Hence their interest in modifying tariff raising to the pocket of the consumer
RUNNING AGAINST DE PRIEST.
Ever since Representative Oscar De Priest of Chicago was elected to Congress from Chicago, in place of the late Congressman Madden, there have been reports of other members of his race who propose to enter the field against him for a renomination. It is significant that the publisher of the Chicago Defender, who was thought to be his most prominent
rival, did, not file his intention to run against the present member of Congress. Inatead, it is reported that Roscoe Conkling Simmons complied with the election laws, by filing petitions for his nomination duly signed by registered voters, with the Illinois Secretary of State.
This filing of intention to run for Congress by Simmons is not to be taken too seriously, as the prospective candidate is not averse to newspaper notice of any kind or for any reason. An entertaining talker and a newspaper writer of considerable descriptive power, Mr. Simmons has been known for years to many people in various parts of the country. But in the role of lawmaker, it is not likely that he could make the weight. His early essays at any serious political activity, aside from glowing stump speeches to not too critical audiences, were not much of a success.
To the disinterested observer in this part of the country, there does not appear to be any sound reason why Representative De Priest should not have a second term, which the voters of Chicago will probably give him in any event. The only object of fomenting opposition to him among the Negro voters is apparently to get them divided, and so bring about his defeat and possibly make it possible to put a white man in his place, either Democrat or Republican. This would be very poor politics for the colored voters of Chicago to play, and they do not as a rule play that kind of politics.
The sentiment of the race at large appears to be that Representative De Pries should be kept in Congress. With the experience that he will have acquired in his first two years, he will be twice as valuable as a representative in his second term. While he may have made some tactical errors of politics and said some things in his speeches that were not opportune, he has always shown himself to possess courage and dignity. He deserves a renomination and re-election, and if the voters of his district are wise, they will see that he gets both by an overwhelming vote.
Petty opposition to Mr De Priest's candidacy should be discouraged
REVOLT AMONG REPUBLICANS.
The spirit of revolt against present leaders appears to be rife among the rank and file of Republicans, and unless something is done to allay its fury, it spells disaster at the polls for Republican candidates in the near future. This spirit of revolt may have started among the lawmakers themselves, where we find the Senate divided against itself, with the insurgents voting with the Democrats to defeat legislation proposed by the regular wing of the party. With this precedent to guide them, it is no wonder that the ordinary voter voices his discontent with party policies and supports candidates of the opposition.
Over in Brooklyn we find the Italian Republican clubs changing their title, by substituting the word Democratic for Republican, and transferring their allegiance to the majority party. Nicholas Selvaggi, the leader of this group of voters, announced his withdrawal from the Republican organization on the ground that the party in Brooklyn had failed to give proper consideration to the Italian voters. As Selvaggi himself has at various times held office under Republicans as Assistant District Attorney in Kings county. Special Assistant United States Attorney General and Deputy State Attorney General, his complaint can hardly be regarded as personal.
In New York county the members of the Young Republican Club are insistent that the party leaders must take a decided stand on the subject of Prohibition, presumably for the repeal of the amendment, as the endorsement of dry candidates or dry legislation is denounced as leading only to the defeat of the party in the coming state election. Then there are other symptoms of revolt directed against the county and district leaders in all the boroughs. Most of the district leaders are charged with utter indifference to the future prospects of the party, so long as they can secure Federal offices for themselves and their favorites. Hence, the state of dry rot and disintegration in party ranks.
The Negro voters are not without their own peculiar grievances, growing out of the discriminations practiced against them because of race or color, in many of the Federal offices under the control' of Republicans. This has helped to promote a division of their votes, in which many of them find reasons for support of the Democracy in municipal and State elections. As the white Republican leaders discourage the enrollment of colored voters, in the same way that they neglect to build up their party among the whites, the delay of Republican organization is accelerated in New York City. In the two Negro districts in Harlem the party organizations have taken on new life under Negro leadership. There is need for a reorganization of the

LACK OF COORDINATION.
It used to be in keeping with the ethics of the newspaper profession to be able to say that the editorial department was strictly independent of the advertising and circulation departments, in other words that the business management of the paper had nothing to do with the editorial policy. Of course, this was not always strictly true, as most newspapers are primarily business enterprises and an editorial policy that drove away advertisers and readers would not long survive. But, be this as it may, it is not often that we come across so striking a lack of coordination between the news and the editorial departments, as was displayed in the Pittsburgh Courier during the past few weeks.
In its issue of February 8, the Courier printed an editorial on "The Telegraph Trust and the Negro," in which it defended the absence of a more liberal employment policy toward colored people on the part of the Western Union and the Postal Telegraph Companies. It took notice of the new departure promised by the former company for Harlem, in the following pessimistic strain:
The New York Age reports that the Western Union Telegraph Company has decided to modify its policy by putting Negro messengers and clerks under a Negro manager in its Harlem office. Let us hope this is true. It hasn't happened yet, but we can continue to hope that it will.
And yet in its issue of February 22, we and the news department of the Courier culturing over the realization of the promise unded a double column headline, proclaiming "What the Courier Accomplished." In addition it published the following modest summary of "Cause" and Effect":

THE CAUSE.
In the February 8th issue of The Pittsburgh Courier, the appeared an editorial notice the heaping "The Telegraph Trust and the Negro, deriding the fact that the telegraph companies failed to employ race help.
At the same time, a "Holloway" cartoon gave the editorial added force.
THE EFFECT.
Last week, the Western Union released the above picture of New York City's first group of colored Western Union messenger boys.
The boys are working out of the office located at 210 West 135th street, in the heart of Harlem and officials declare the office is soon to be managed by an all colored staff. The boys, all dressed up and rarin' to go, are left to right: James Walker, Charles Jones, Joseph Adams, George A. Murry and Harold Watkins.
Evidently the ingenious news department of the Courier can read more into a editorial than the editorial department ever conceived to be possible. Is it the use of a journalistic Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Kyde? or, can it be an irreverent headliner merely jollying the staid and dignified editorial department of his own paper? Weve it up.

FUNCTIONS OF A BANK.

In his comment on a recent change of banking policy by the Dunbar National Bank, the new president of that institution, Charles C. Huitt, threw considerable light on the functions of a bank outside of the mere receiving of deposits and payment of drafts, or checks. The change made in the bank's rate of interest paid on accounts in its savings department, from three to four, per cent., was for the purpose of encouraging greater thrift among the people of Harlem. The old rate presented too great a disparity with the regular savings bank rate, even though the Dunbar Bank could give its depositors a wider range of service than the ordinary savings bank.
A word of caution was issued as to the present situation in the matter of buying property in Harlem. As an investment it was pronounced precarious, where the wouldbe buyer is only able to acquire a small equity without any financial resources to fall back upon, in case, of inability to secure renewal of mortgages as they fall due. The overhead expenses of keeping the property in repair and promptly meeting taxes, water rates, assessments for improvements and other details, have to be met from income. In case the income is checked by vacancies or any kind of disaster, the owner's equity is in jeopardy from foreclosure proceedings.
Buying property on a small equity was pronounced equivalent to speculating in the stock market, which many a Harlemite has found to be a hazardous undertaking on a small margin. Here is where the advantages of a thrift account are emphasized, as affording a sure return at a fair rate of interest regularly credited to the depositor. The main purpose of the bank, however, is to help the Negro to help himself, by the exercise of thrift and economy. Advice and service in financial matters are among the things that the institution offers the public, in all matters relating to investments. The promotion of thrift among the people of the community is the summing up of the many reasons for the establishment of this bank. In order to enable the bank to render

COMMENTS BY THE AGE EDITORS ON SAYINGS OF OTHER EDITORS
Referring to the protest made by a group of Indians against "Virginia's 1930 Edition of Racial Integrity," the Norfolk Journal and Guide said:
A group of Virginia Indians are protesting against the measure on the ground that its assumen would automatically cause a number of them to revert to the racial status of Negroes. The anti-marriage law makes an exception for Indian blood by classifying as white all persons having one-sixteenth or less of the blood of the Indian and no other non-Caucasian blood.
But while the Negroes of Virginia are only passively interested in this legislative dolphin they are at times amused at the antics thrown by the American Indian whenever there is an intimation that he may be classified as a Negro. If the Indian dreads the racial status of Negroes, he dreads it no less than the Negroes would be affronted at having him cast upon them as a co-racialist. If the Indian has not already advanced too far toward mental and physical decadence to understand, he will probably be surprised to learn that the Sons of Africa regard themselves as a vigorous and up-coming race, assimilating modern civilization and culture, while they look upon him with pity as a dead and dying race and would prefer none of him as a racial fellow. Yet neither prefer a dying life when diversed in his tribal status, let him have it. That race is doublest better able to carry a dying appendage than the Negro. About the only Negro ever heard to boast of his Indian extraction was one who gloated over his traits of cunning and mischief for which he held his Indian blood responsible.
But what about the merits of the hill itself? Traced to its logical end it comes up against a pathetic and rather tragic impasse, which will in reality constitute a defeat of its own purpose.
The Virginia editor showed that the ways in which such laws defeat themselves might be outlined indefinitely. He insisted that affirmative legislation, making every father legally bound to give his offspring his name and support, would give the most telling blow to miscegenation.
Propounding the somewhat surprising query, "Can We Sing?" the Chicago Sunday Bee made the following criticism of racial progress in vocal music.
In a recent contest between the glee clubs and other contests of the students of the high schools of Chicago the best the representatives of our group could do was to secure third prize. Perhaps the colored students were not blame. Perhaps they received the identical training the other contestants did, but the fact is our group was at a distinct disadvantage in that their background of music was poor, their community singing had been neglected and they could not cope with the whites from those high schools composed largely of students of foreign extraction whose musical backgrounds and traditions were superior to our group.
Our music critics are too charitable in their criticisms of our adults, our choirs and our community and congregational singing. They should be severe and exacting in their criticisms of our singers and our singing. It is the only way by means of which our singing will be improved and will be an end to save to our group the last vestige of hope we have to return to our reputation as great singers. The white artists are filling their programs with our music on the concert stage. Soon white singing groups will appropriate our spirituals, chants and other melodies and we will beawal our fate in discordant wails.
The remedy suggested was to "pep our singing" and the National Association of Colored Musicians was called upon to initiate improvement through its locals in church and community music.
Contrasting the actions of "A Lawless Mob and a Lawful Jury," in two recent tragedies in Georgia, the Savannah Journal said:
Last Saturday two notable events occurred in Georgia, which caused much comment: by the press of the state and will probably be discussed for some time by editors, ministers and inter-racial committees. One of the tragedies happened in Twain County. Ocelli said an infuriated mob numbering about five hundred persons snatched from an officer of the law a Negro suspected of an atrocious double crime—assault and murder of—a young white woman. After riddling his body with bullets and cutting his throat they then engaged in a heathenish performance by saturating the lifeless body with gasoline and tossing it into a pile of burning logs.
The other incident took place at Walkinville in Orange County, an different section of the state. Instead of hearing asemblance of the south Georgia outrage, it was exactly contrary to the heedless mockery of the mad members of the mob who flaunted their feeble whims in the face of constituted authority and placed upon their state and section
ranged through the proper authorities. Then the stock of the Dunbar Bank itself may be acquired by those farsighted individuals, who are looking into the future and desire to get in on the ground floor of a profitable enterprise. The Dunbar Bank is prepared to play an important role in the material development of Harlem.
a stigma that even time cannot efface. In this case, two white men were charged with the brutal murder of an aged Negro couple, with robbery as the motive. They were given a fair and impartial trial by due process of law, and after the jury heard the evidence and facts, a verdict of guilty was rendered and the murderers sentenced to the electric chair. Both epms were horrible and deplorable and deserved the same penalty, but what a vast difference in the procedure.
The lynching while stated to be the first in Georgia for three years, shows that the mob spirit though dormant still survives. It will be interesting to note whether the white murderers suffer the death penalty to which they were sentenced.
The Atlanta Independent recently published a list of census supervisors for the sixteen districts of Georgia, with the following comment:
The census is supposed to be a non-partisan function of the Government from which no citizen is supposed to be barred on account of race or color; but, a careful survey of the hist disclosures the fact that not a single Negro is selected as supervisor, though the Negro constitutes 40 per cent of the population and only one known Republican is given a place The Democrats get 15 districts, the Republicans one and Negroes nothing.
Prof. Wm. Burson is the only supervisor who is known to the editor of the Independent as a Republican. In fact, the Secretary of the Republican organization in the state never heard of either of the other supervisors and didn't know there were such persons on earth. Our information is that these Democrats voted for Mr. Hoover in 1928, and were given these places as rewards for bolting the Democrat ticket in 1928. Thousands of white Republicans in the state have been voting the Republican ticket for 40 years, but their loyalty to the Republican Party doesn't count: the patronage was given to the democrats as a reward for their treachery and "disloyalty" to their own party, despite the fact that they have returned body and boot to the Democratic Party, and will enter the Democratic primary in May and September.
These places pay from $1,500 to $2,000 and expenses, and these fifteen Democrats will be well paid for their one vote. The Republican referee will have some trouble explaining this discrimination against his party.
As Editor B. J. Davis of the Independent was formerly Republican National Committeeman for Georgia, his chagrin at seeing this census patronage bestowed upon Democrats, is easily understood.
Contending that the Texas statute intended to bar Negroes from voting in the Democratic primary has proved a boomerang to one of its authors, the Houston Informer said:
Meeting at Austin last Saturday the Democratic state executive committee voted to deny all "Hoovercats" (Democrats who supported and voted for President Hoover in the 1928 general election) a place on the official ballot of the party at the primary elections which will be held in Texas during next July. This action was aimed directly at State Senator Thomas B Love of Dallas, who was active in the Hoover camp during 1928 and who has already announced his candidacy for governor of the state at the July primaries. In discussing the committee's action, Senator Love is quoted in the newspapers as saying that the committee refused to bar Negroes from participation in the summer primaries and that the Democrats, while denying him the right to appear on the party's official ballot as a subrostrate candidate
The Dallas solon also stated that he was one of the authors of the present state statute which empowered the executive committees of Texas political parties to pass upon the eligibility of participants in such nominating elections, and he seemed to have felt outraged that he should be barred as a candidate by the committee's action.
Thus it begins to appear that one of the authors of this civil statute is the first man to feel its sting, and that the law is about to prove a boomerang to the North Texas politician.
Originally designed and passed to bar Negroes from participating in the Democratic primaries in Texas, after the United States Supreme Court had invalidated the infamous "white man's primary" statute, the new measure seems deigned to cause its co-author the same amount of trouble and expense, as anticipated by its proponents for the colored citizens of this state, to test its validity.
It is remarkable how often measures of a discriminatory nature recoil upon the instigators of them because confusion and disaster. As a homely proverb puts it, "Chickens come home to toast."

The Week of March 1 Astrologically Considered
The employment will suffer through lack of thoughtfulness in the birthyear of March 6. There seems to be an inheritance likely to many of today. Too much confidence should not be placed in strangers who offer a chance to get rich quick. The money should be invested only through a reliable bank, and those who lend money should never expect it back. The health of a close relative or marriage partner will cause concern. This is a year for patience and the best of judgment, and not for worry. The birthyear for March 7, promises some happiness in social and domestic affairs, but some worry through the employment or business. The who are employed should try to hold to the job. It is necessary to use only patience with the marriage partner or the loved one. This is not a very good year to consider marriage.
The readers who would like to know how to get ahead and to understand the planetary influences that are now affecting them, should send the full name, the birthday month, year, hour and place with a self-addressed envelope and ten stamps to Thearcher, in care at 135th Street, New York, Age 26, West 135th street, New York. This paragraph should accompany the data. All communications are confidential.
Nearly three million students attend public schools, academies, colleges and universities within the borders of New York State. Of that number more than two million are in public school.
Twenty-four hunters were killed and eighty-seven injured in New York State during the shooting season just closed. Last year thirty-two were killed.
The first regular United States Mail Service began with the opening of a Post Office in New York City in 1783.
There are in the United States eleven persons who last year paid taxes on incomes of $5,000,000 or more each. Of these, seven live in New York State, New Jersey, Illinois, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin have one each.
There are in the Empire State 235 butter-making plants, producing more than twelve million pounds a year, and 846 cheese-making plants with a nearly output of nearly fifty million pounds.
Gas and electric utilities of New York State in 1930 will expend more than 125 million dollars, chiefly in new construction to meet the increasing demands for service. Inhabitants of New York State are engaged in 4,338 different occupations. The list runs alphabetically from "abattors" to "tune" and includes such work as decking paper, making magic tricks, training feas and baking noodles. When the Dutch founded New Amsterdam they adopted the currency of the Indians. This was made of discs of pernicious shells and called "sewant." Later on beaverskins were used for more. New York leads all other states in industrial output, with 30,503 factories and products worth nine and one-half billion dollars a year. These factories employ more than a million workers, and pay in wages more than a billion and a half dollars yearly.
The first regular street car service in the United States was started in New York City in 1832 when horse-cars began to run between City Hall and 14th Street. The Empire State is this year spending ninety-eight million dollars for public education, and it is expected that in 1930 the appropriation will exceed 100 million. The State Health Department of New York has established anti-virus stations at Albany, Glenn Falls, Bighamton, Havenstra and New York City for emergency service in case of snake bite.
Here we are at the last week of February and Civil Service has been "going strong", for the past 2 months—both in the way of appointments, which averaged three to four hundred a week, and examinations, which were many for a period of two months.
With the coming of March, the first month of spring, many examinations are scheduled to take place. Stenographer-Typist, Grade 2—The written examinations will cover seven days, March 18, 21, 25, 28 April 1, 4 and 8. About 400 candidates will be examined daily, with both morning and afternoon sessions, 2,903 candidates, are expected to be examined. Two letters will be dictated at the rate of 100 words per minute and one must be transcribed on the typewriter. Also examinations will be held in spelling and letter writing.
Attendant (Male)—This examination will cover two days, March 11 and 12. The questions will cover the duties of the job, arithmetic and handwriting. The entire examination will be written.
Inspector of Steel, Grape 3—Both the medical and mental tests for this examination will be held March 7. Application Dates for City Examinations During March:
Nurse (Female) — Applications open March 4 and close March 18. Age 21 to 35. Candidates must be registered nurses with at least 12 experience, Salary, $1,740 to $1,100. There are 30 vacancies at $2,100 in the department of Health. Supervisor of Recreation Applications open March 4 and close March 18. Duties to plan, organize and supervise the work of a Bureau of Recreation in the Park Department for both children and adults. Experience necessary, Salary $2,500 a year. Many vacancies.
February 26 was the last day for filing applications for the examination for Fireman. The physical and

Those who begin a birthyear on March 1 will need to safeguard the health, and nearly every one will experience some family changes. The health of some close member of the family will cause some concern. Those who can use patience can accomplish very much of that faraway. Legal matters will only cause loss. This is a business year.
The birthyear for March 2 promises financial success, and unexpected journeys because of family affairs. It is best that no new plans be made, and those who can use patience and keep the pose will be able to make some headway in the birthyear. There is no need to expect the worst in every thing. Plenty of, sleep and rest will help retain the health. Success will come in mental vocations or professions.
Travel, success in mental vocations, and legal matters will bring interest to the birthyear for those of March 3. Family affairs will not be as pleasant as they could be. Patience will help a great deal here. A rather pleasant year aside from family matters
The birthyear for March 4 promises success in business, but a need for care in traveling and around machinery is indicated. Some very important social and family changes are indicated for every one of today. This can be a very successful year in business and employment. It is best to try nothing.
March 3 begins a birthyear that will bring some very romantic events and possible marriage. Legal matters will not turn out well, and it is best that every one of today be very careful of the speech and in writing letters. It is best that no time payments be contracted for, and no money should be loaned or borrowed. Quarrels will lead to serious results.
er and killed are of the darker race, moved the Florida Sentiment of Jacksonville to call for some procedure to "Stop Negroes from Killing Each Other." It said. "
The homicide rate among Negroes is startling. Last year thirty-one Negroes were murdered by Negroes in Duval country. Since December, the Negroes have been slain by Negroes in Duval county. The most surprising thing is the lack of serious punishment meted out to the murderers. Not a single Negro during the past year paid the price for inflicting mortal wounds on Negroes
What becomes of all the murders of Negroes? A casual walk up Broad, down Ashley and up Davis, disclosed the startling result of nine Negroes who were recognized as murdersers of Negroes in Duval county. Most of them were cleared at the preliminary hearing, but all of them free and walking the streets to testify to the laxity of the law when a Negro's life is at stake. In most of the cases the evidence of some irresponsible persons as to the bad character of the white man, and of some white person as to the character of the murderer has been sufficient to clear many Negroes. But, all the while, the law is mocked and murder among Negroes continues at a rapid pace.
The electric chair offers a solution. Murder can be stopped among the "gat towers" and "knife widowers" of the black belt. Drop a few of them through the trap door of the gallows or burn up some of them in the electric chair. Capital punishment may not be the best solution for murder, but it will stop the mockery of the law that has caught Duval county in its palm and made the life of Negroes among Negroes almost valueless.
This is another phase of the reign of helvessness which tolerates mob murder and lynching, showing that the state has abdicated its functions in the protection of life and property.

Linceln Five Noses
Howard Out Before
_ 1500 In Orange, N. J
Orange, N. J.—In an extra game
Lincoln University again defeated
Howard's basketball team with a
score of 25-21. The game was
sponsored by the North Jersey
Howard alumni and was atiended
by 1,500 Lincoln-Howard fans.
The Bisons began scoring when
after four minutes of eautious play
Harris shpped through the Lion
defense, dribbled the ball to the
basket and scored a goal. Lincoln
was unable to hold the ball. be-
gause of a fumble or a wild pass.
In their bewilderment, Taylor,
Howard's “sub-center, scored two
more points before fackson, Lion
forward, put his {gam into the scr:
nig column with a'neat angle shot
Harns, Howard's captain, fol
lowed Taylor's example and’ drib-
bled repeatedly through the Lin-
coln team, bemg fouled by his
pursurers,” As a result, he scored
five free-throws in ‘succession.
With the score 9-1" in Howard's
favor, the Ltons came to life and
through the clever shooting of Av-
ery and DeCosta, overtook the Bis-
on with a one point lead. Harris
scored twice from the foul line,
enabling the Bisons to lead by the
shm margin of a single point as
the half ended.
The second half opened with fast
floor work on behalf of both teams,
with Lincoln showing surprising
stamina, As a result, the Lions
ran up 9 points, while Howard
gathered 5, With four minutes to
Bo the Bisons recovered and ued
the score at 19 all. Avery shot 2
basket which sent the Lions ahead
by two points, which secured pos-
seston of the ball aid a long, hard
ass to Smith, who from a dificult
angle fipped the ball through the
net, leaving the score at tie, with
only 13 seconds to-go.
The game ended ina tie score
of 21-21. In the third minute of
the overtime period, Hall took, the
ball from tap off, dribbled madly
down the'floor and shot for the
basket, but ihe ball rolled around
the rim and fell on the outside.
Lincoln recovered and, the sensa-
tional basket by Smith and two
points from the foul line by: Rid-
ley gave the Lions a well-earned
four pomt margin, :
One notable feature of the game
was Lincoln's close guarding which
enabled Howard to get only four
field goals, a dupheation of the
fact in Washington, when Howard
collected only three field goals dur-
nig th entire game, although loos-
ing by a score of only 25-26,
Fortunate for Howard, this was
an extra game under the auspices
of neither institution, and. there-
fore, does not figure in the C, 1.
A.A. rating., Lincoln's return
game swith Howard will be play-
ed in New York on aMrch 7, which
will nov doubt be the crucial game

als who are interested in the wel-
fare of humanity ‘are_ seen crossing
the threshold of the Colored Vaude-
ville Benevolent Association's club
rooms located at 424 Lenox avenue,
New York City. It is in this con-
ection that we take peculiar de-
light in mentionmg the name of the
Hon. James Weldon Johnson. Mr.
Johnson needs no encomiums heaped
upon him by us*or the reason that
as diplomat, autohr, poet, publicis and
National Secretary of the N. A. A.
CP, he 1s too well kaown, A’ re-
cent visit to vs by Mr. Johnson was
for the purpose of gathering data
Jogking forward for the compilation
of 2 work delineating the lives and
characters of members of the color;
ed race who have attained to some
Gecree of prominence as theatrical
artists.
We feel complimented that such
men as Mr. Johnson should repose
enough confidence in us as to try to
ascertain at least 2 portion of the
desired information. The task which
Mr. Johnson has undertaken 1s not
an sy one, several attentpts having
been made in this same direction but
for the most part were failures due
to an_unfamilrarity with certain
facts, There are many missing links
in the chain of the Negro's theatrical
history that need to be collected and
forged into concrete form. If we
can be of any service to Mr. Johnson

be only to happy to render it

St. Martin's Chapel
"Feeding the Fires of Hope" was the sermon topic discussed last Sunday morning, by the Rev. John H Johnson, vicar of St. Martin's Chapel, 122nd street and Lenox avenue, vicar of the 2nd verse of the 6th chapter of Paul's Epistle to the Galatians: "Bear ye one another's burdens and so fulfill the law of Christ."
"Hope is one of the three carydinal virtues declared in the General cause of the importance given them in the New Testament. Hope of Paradise is born in one's own breast, and cannot be transmitted. But it is possible to give worldly hope and encouragement. A kind look, a friendly word or a smear will sometimes uplift a burdened soul.
"In another verse of this chapter, Paul has said, 'Each man must bear his own burdens.' This is true. But it is also true that we can get relief upon our own burden in this sense, we are bearing each other's burdens. The heart of religion is contained in being friendly and in loving one another. If we fail to help those that come to us with strength and strength, then we, as Christians have missed our greatest opportunity and the church has trailed in its purpose." Flowers for the altar were contributed to Miss Carter and Mrs. Immer or Mrs. and father.

In his talk he illustrated how man has extended his hand, his foot, his voice by man's hand and by man's radio.

NATL BAPTISTS TO HOLD GOLDEN JUBILEE IN SEPT. Half-Century of Growth To Be Marked By Session in New York
Chicago. Ill.—"Few survivors are left to us after fifty years of carrying on as a religious body, who witnessed the amalgamation of and the setting up of the National Baptist Convention of America fifty years ago," declared Rev. S. S. Jones, corresponding secretary of this nationwide convention of Negro Baptists. They are to hold their Golden Jubilee Celebration in New York, the metropolis of the nation, September 10-15, at which time they will observe the half-century mark.
Few of the younger generation know that the National Baptist Convention of America, as it is now styled, called and named, is the amalgamation of three national councils. I was the beginning of mergers, and while more than two score years and ten have passed since that date, the religious organization has pushed forward. The bodies that came together were the Educational Convention of America, the old National Baptist Convention, the Foreign Mission Convention. The union of the three bodies took place down in Montreal, Ala., September 1880.
The Golden Jubilee
It is planned to hold in New York City a jubilee and a celebration that will depict in date, in exhibits and in achievements what has taken place in fifty years, in the early beginning when the Negro Baptists had few churches, no literature of their own, and a limited number of prepared gospel ministers. The acting president, James W. Kaiser City, who is filling out the annual term of the late Dr. J. Edmund Wood, will instruct that each board prepare its historical data to be presented in connection with their annual report during the New York gathering. A commissioner has been named from every State convention affiliating with this group of worker. This is the Convention and Group to which the late R. H. Boyd, founder of the National Baptist Publishing Board, belonged.
New York will be the mecca, and the churches, numbering between thirty and forthy, some very small and others large, will join in one tremendous effort to give the first chance to be held within the confines of it! Empire State, a rousing welcome and a cordial reception.
Rev. Marshall L. Shepard, pastor and Mt. Olivet Taborach, Baptist Church, 42nd and Wallace, stree of West Philadelphia, Pa. as preacher after he had filled the unexpired term of the late president, Dr. McArthur Sullivan. Rev. Shepard came to this city day late, more than a year, from New York City, where he was assistant pastor of the Abyssinian Baptist Church. He has built upon one of the largest congregations in the city and one of the most influential. Rev. Shepard, at 30 years old, is perhaps the youngest man to be head of the Philadelphia Baptist group. He is also secretary of the publicity Convention, and assistant secretary of the Foreign Mission Board of the National Baptist Convention, Inc. and contributing editor to the Christian Review. His weekly column under the caption "Shepard Sayes" is quite popular and widely read.
CHICAGO CHURCH
WINS VICTORY IN
MORTGAGE SUIT
Ex-New York Pastor, Rev
G. M. Oliver, Leads His
Church In Fight
Chicago, Ill.-Walters A. M.
Zion Church, the Rev. George M.
Oliver, pastor, has won a signal vi-
tory after six months of litigation
over the property with the Progressive Bond and Mortgage Co., which company had entered suit to enforce payment of back interest and unpaid notes on the mortgaged indebtedness
In a statement issued by the trustee board through its president, John W. Anderson, and secretary, Ernest E. Crookie, it is brought out that the burden of debt under that office abhored had caused a fallion which obfessed that membership and a genera apathy among those who remain. The mortgage was more than $1,000, and the annual interest, notched to $7,000. The Rev. Dr. Oliver, who replaced a red Rush Memorial A. M. chance in Church, New York City, tonyhose coming here, was appointed a relaible j. P. W. Martin, and his first mourn fort was to pay several thousand back interest and at the same time take care of current expenses. This was found impossible, so the church allowed its payments to debtors, mortgage company employees suit. A. M. Strauss National Bank was named ed. and he demanded $1,000 monthly rent.
Rent $150, Not $1,000.
The church was represented by the Counsel ISA. Israel S. Barkman, which maintained that too much money has already been paid and that the congregation ought to be allowed occupy the church building without paying any rent. The court ordered an appraisal by which to determine the amount of rent its rental possibilities. A report showed the actual value to be $40,000 to $50,000, and that it is not rentable.
As a result, Judge Feinburg, 22, derided the payment of $1,500 for the instead of $1,000, as derain company the receiver. Judge by this decision, 22, more than $60,000, and position to take over the position at the reduced figure whenever in financial condition to do so membership has gained new life is duly jubilant over the great story which has been won undefinitely leadership of Dr. Oliver.

A., Mrs Matchie, Marshall, chairman, in the auditorium of the Central Branch Y M. C. A., Hanson and Fort Green places, Brooklyn, on Washington's Birthday, Saturday, February 22, at 11 o'clock, a m., was featured by the delightful singing of Ella Belle Davis, a charming young soprano from New Rochelle.
This young lady has been heard on a number of previous occasions hearing the perilous artistic strivings, and the manner in which she performed her task on this occasion justified all the prognostications of the past as to her future promise. Her bones were luscious and velvety, pure and sweet, with no sign of whiteness which would seem to think a necessary quality. Impeccable articulation, beautiful phrasing, unusual breath control, all combined to make her singing a joy and a delight.
Her accompaniments were Pelayah her sister, Marian D. Davis, and a true sisterly spirit in the sympathetic understanding which marked her work

Wanamaker Is Showing New Piano Tonal Device
The Crea-Tone, a new device for sustaining the tone琴, the invention of Simon Cooper, scientist of Brooklyn, is being exhibited to New York musicians this week by the John Wanamaker Stores in two recitals, one having been given on Tuesday afternoon, and the other to be held on Friday, 2.9.8.2014. Mr. Cooper's device, as described by Dr. Alexander Russell, concert director at Wanamaker's, is the result of many years of experimentation and research and according to reports from musicians, is capable of great artistic possibilities.
For a number of years inventors and manufacturers have attempted to devise some means of sustaining the tone琴, but does not modify the original piano tone, which is characterized by the hammer stroke on the string. In this respect it represents an extension of the tonal range of the piano, which sets up the gamut of harmonic tones which add beauty to the tone color.
The device can be placed on any piano without necessitating any serious structural changes in the instrument. In the Wanamaker designation a built-in large size device is equipped with the Cooper device will be used.
The program on Tuesday afternoon was given by Marjorie Garrique, pianist, with Radina Parmor mezzo-soprano, the Grea-Tone Beechman, by the singing the Rachmanoff G Major Eprelude and in accompanying two songs.
The Friday program presents Miss Pazmor again, with Constance Beardsley as pianist, and the Creata Tone piano will be used for a group of compositions by Borodin, Groebel and Albenz, and a vocal solo. "Jauple en reve" by Hue. The first piece is a heroic a crossover bussy's compositions, played on the Bechstein piano that Debussy used for eight years.

ACTIVITIES AMONG UNION MUSICIANS
ACTIVITIES AMONG UNION MUSICIANS
BY PERCIVAL OUTRAM"
"The fastest growing, organization in the world. That's the Music Defense League. Every mail brings hundreds of signed membership coupons representing the theatre in every State in the Union, and every Province in the Dominion."
The above is the first paragraph of the International Musician, the official organ of the American Federation of Musicians, depicting the progress of the intensive campaign against mechanical devices which have created favor, by displacing Union musicians in the剧院.
This campaign aims to prove that the public really wants living orchestra and organists in the theatre, and looks with disdain on substituting mechanical music.
Coupons which the public were asked to fill out and return to the Federation's headquarters, deluged the office force, and extra help was acquired to handle the situation. Many music lovers not content with the letters, describing their objection to canned music and their learning for return of living music, continues the International. Many asked for blanks to have their friends join the Music Defense League. Most correspondents stated they were not musicians, but just a good friend. Special are said to have offered financial and some sent checks. Of course, all money or checks were returned with thanks as the Federation feels itself quite able to finance the campaign. The general advertising campaign was launched October 21, 1929. The commencement of the Music Defense League made the newspapers January 30, 1930. This checked substitution, and "in some cities orchestras were restored."
This concerns race musicians all over the States, if we judge by the conditions which exist in Harlem. In Harlem we have several theatres, which employed in the aggregate the musicians regularly. All these theatres have choral mechanical devices for the music. These, thirty men have joined the army of unemployed musicians to compete for the single engagements.

Bill Brown, trombonist, of Brooklyn, who was leading his orchestra at a dance hall in West 42nd street, has edged over nearer to Broadway Bill changed his job, without the loss of a day, to the "Blue Bird," located in the Knickerbocker building and is located on the outside of the premises as "Bill Brown and his celebrated Brunswick Recorded Orchestra."
Lieut. Jake Porter and his orchestra were again heard on the radio Sunday, February 23. Jake seems to have had his time increased. The orchestra is gradually assuming a more intimate role. The orchestra has developed a sense of restraint in blowing, which spells better reception to the listener. Now, we know that a piano is included in the orchestra. It was also noted that the accompaniment to the solo instruments was better coordinated.

Deputy Prosecutor Colton rallied to the support of the auditor, saying that a state judge who whistled on a marry one with more than one-fourth Negro blood.

There is no longer any red-light district. It has spread from the Bronx to the Battery, from the East River to the Hudson. New York is a cesspool of vice and corruption. The clanking liquor bottles, the stink of mash, the crack of guns, the cry of murder, and the dash of fugitives, together with the march of harlots, move to the tune of jazz. This is the valley of death—this is New York.
"I feel impressed; by the scriptures to cry sland, and spare not, and to lift up my voice like a trumpet, show the people their transgressions." In the first place, the scriptures condemn man wearing the clothes of women." The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man neither to wear a garment. For all the do so are abomination unto the Lord their God." Deuteronomy 22:5.
"Instead of people applauding men that dress like women, they ought to weep and fear God when He is insulted by creatures that make themselves an abemination. Read other scriptures: 2nd Timothy 3rd chapter, Remans 1st chapter, Jude 13th verse.
The "Fairies" and Whence They Come.
"First—There are those who are born 'fairies' because of prenatal influences.
"Second—Those that acquire habit through lack of training by asleep in bed, by curvers, also through separate boys and girls schools.
"Third—The seekers after thrill, who willingly adopt habits and practices.
"Fourth—Those who develop the second third sex instinct because of debilitation caused by double-standard of living—a wife and a sweetheart.
"Fifth—Intellectual idifference to the call of the gospel. In Plato's phrase they had the soul the souls of conscience, and hide themselves in the light of God's revelation through Calvary.
"What Should Be The Church's Attitude, Toward Them.
"First--Should she hold out deliverance to them? Should she remain indifferent to their salvation and silent to their sin? Yes, she is indifferent, having these things. There is no one beyond the pale of God's salvation. Though their sin be as scarlet, He will make them as white as snow; they will make them as red as crimson; will make them as wool. Ye, the poet sings.
"He breaks the power of canceled sins, He sets the captive free. His blood can make the foulest clean. His blood avails for me." She also has a warning for them, namely, men are punished here in this world for their sins, as well as hereafter. This is a form of retribution according to Romans 1: 16-32: second chapter. We will verse, in general, the judgment of God upon New York, such injustice will do it, history is not uncertain in its voice and precedents of gross immorality bringing down judgment upon cities of ancient time. We have Sodom and Gomorra as examples which suffer from the judgment of God when we have Pompeii of mediaeval times Genesis 19:1-29
"Third—The wearing of clothes of the opposite sex is an abomination into the Lord. To cohabit in the opposite sex was punishable in old times by death, and today, it incurs the wrath of God and will surely be punished by Peteuteronomy 22:15: Leviticus 18:22 19:21 Corinthians 6:9: Leviticus 20:13
What Meeneth All This In The
Light of The Scriptures.
"It is the fulfilment of prophecy found in 2nd Timothy 3.1-14, 2nd Peter 2nd chapter, which describes the condition of the times that shall precede and presage the conting of the Lord Jesus Christ; who said, 'Iniquity shall abound and the love of many shall wax cold. And through the Apostle Paul, That women shall call Patience deceiving and being deceived.' Enoch prophesed these things in connection with the coming of the Lord, when he said, "Bethold, He cometh with ten thousand of His saints to execute judgment upon all, and to convince all that are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have ungodly committed, and of all their hard speech, and of all their spoken against him." "One outstanding thing that makes me burden for fear am-belief of them who reject Christ as their Saviour, and those who accept
Notice also that you have gained in energy your skin is clearer—your eye sparkle with glorious health—you feel young in body—keener in mind. Your skin gives any life a joyous surprise.
Get an 850 bottle of KRUSCHIAN SALTS (last four weeks). If even this first bottle doesn't convince you this is the easiest, safest and surest way to lose fat—if you don't feel a superb improvement in health—so gloriously improve in health—alive—your money gladly return!
Christ as their Saviour; but, with not walk in obedience to His word, is the imminent danger of the coming homo-sexual, because they -in against Jesus or the light they have being forward and unwilling to abide and live as God-ordained; they are given over to a reprobate mind, to dishonor their bodies among themselves. Men with men, and women with women who burn in their lust one woman, this suffering judgment from God, retribution for their sins. Women putting themselves forward in the role of men to take the place of men as preachers, etc., and men taking the order of women, thus perverting the order of God, who placed men as the head of every woman, the sexuality of women, and femininity of women, thus giving our age with a generation of generations.
"Jesus said, 'While you drive the light, believe in the light; and again, talk while you, have the light, light do come upon you, and great will be among the darkness of degeneracy, insanity, and damnation.
"Do not become entangled with the light, and save YOURS from THIS UNTOWARD GENERATION."

AMONG PULLMAN EMPLOYEES
THINGS SEEN, HEARD AND DONE AMONG PULLMAN EMPLOYEES
By JAMES H. HOGANS
FROM WITHIN
(The sixth of a series of articles on the Pullman service and the porter, of which the following is the first by John Reeve, a fifteen-year porter). I started out to be a medical doctor, the profession which lies nearest the heart of every ambitious mother below the Mason and Dixon Line for her favorite son. Here I am after fifteen years—a Pullman porter. The outlook is I shall be this until I die, am retired or perhaps fired. The realization that I would be nothing more was not a happy thought to my dear old mother while she lived. There is one thing, however, that I have learned after fifteen years of broiling steaks, making up berths, and wiping off car handrails, and that is: Nature never intended in its building to chisel every mental groove alike. The successful doctor would never have made a successful porter; neither has she succeeded in making one who gazed upon the still form of Porter Daniels of Chicago, who lost his life in a New Jersey railroad accident seve-
Now, I consider myself successful in a certain sense; and I have achieved this thought as a result of study. I have studied the extent of my ability to follow someone I like, and I have studied the extent of my technique which would repay me. Therefore, my ideas regarding the Pullman service are obvious in the beginning. Nevertheless, after fifteen years of experience I am fair enough to say that the subject of the Pullman service and the porter is difficult to state so as to get a fair fact, not unlike the subject of prohibition, you can debate it from either side, and still be right. As I view the subject, however, the Pullman service is no philanthropic godfather to its porters, as some of its employees with the Pullman complex would have you believe in the use of these employees so faithful and true as some would have you think.
On the other hand, I might mention two instances, in the history or the Pullman service - which proved this organization to be as charitable as any corporation could possibly be expected to be. I will mention the ingress of the Pullman and Wagner companies. When the Pullman Company absorbed the Wagner Palace Car Company, many of the porters in the latter company formerly worked for the absorber. Some of these stories, which were discharged for infractions of rules which forever debarred them from the Pullman service. But when the Wagner Company was taken over these infractions, were erased from these puller's service cards. So far as the Pullman service was concerned, these discharged men were without an
Within my own time, the absorption of the New York and New Haven Railroadies sleeping and carriage drivers is another example of the follow-up by the Fullman system. The way in which I look at the subject, the attitude of the system in these two Miss Helen J. Wall, secretary to Principal E. M. McDuffie, is continued to her bed in the Bigelow Hospital, Dr. J. McDuffie attaching her. At this writing Miss Wall is doing nicely. The entire school is at a lass with her out. Miss Danne Peguese, student of the first year in the Institute, is in the Bigelow Hospital, where she undergo an operation for appenditis. Miss Sadie Alston, nurse at the Bigelow Hospital, has been on the sick list for a week. Friends wish for her a speedy recovery. Mrs J. A. Moore, teacher of the Bigelow Hospital, was suddenly called to North Park, where the bedside of her sister, Mrs Small, has been ill for several weeks.

incidents proved its charitableness towards its porters. But from another peak, I see the devotion, loyalty and steadfastness of the porter to the organization of the Porter in the organization. I was one of those who gazed upon the still form of Porter Daniels of Chicago, who lost his life in a New Jersey railroad accident several years ago, trying to save his wife. Then there is the record of the porter who hewed his way out of the train wreck in Missouri some months ago and pulled each one of his passengers to safety. And there is the porter—his number is 10,000—who thoughts are for the interest which he represents.

Miami crack crew, W. P. Beaty, J. R. Drewery, W. G. Thobbs, C. Davis and N. L King are going to make it hard for all porters in 1930. We understand that they have raised the prices even on oranges. We were glad to see our old friend, G. E. Callahan, around last week. W. Moore was on the show last last week but kept to his post in the check room. Don't forget porters. If you can visit the sick, don't forget to do. Read the New York Age and know all the news and incidentally some of your shortcomings about Wanted—1000 porters who can smile at anything.

Officers of Barbados Society Are Charged Mismanagement,
J. N. Carrington, Organ Inventory and Account Referee To Examine
Charging that its officiated funds belonging to of Barbados Friendly Socrington of 138 West 143rd zer of the Society, and of attorney, W. D. Farring Brooklyn, has secured the making of "a visitation said corporation."
The appeal for an examination and accounting of the funds of the Society was filed September 18, 1929, with former District Attorney Joab H. Banton, but that official directed them to file the request with the Supreme Court, First Judicial District. This was done on October 5, the motion was heard October 28, and on November 14, Justice Curtis A. Peters, sitting in Part I, issued an order granting the request for a visitation, naming Walter G. Dunnington of 5 Nassan street as refractory, and that all books and vouchers of the Society be seized by him for inspection
Officer Facing Charges.
The officers named in the petition are P. A. McIntosh, president, 4 West 118th street; Irene Harwood, secretary, 5 West 137th street, Albert Grant, treasurer, 423 Sixth avenue; Cecil C Carter, manager of real estate, 200 West 135th street; Linton, chairman of charity fund, 123 Fifth avenue Since then, Mr. McIntosh has moved to an address on 127th street, and Miss Harwood to 633 Lenox avenue. The books and records were seired by Referee Dunnington on February 14, and a hearing has been ordered for February 28.
Associated with Mr. Carrington in the demand for an accounting are Frederick Hall, Leshe Yearwood, who made two affidavits, Alfred Inness, Duncan Seale, -Cecil W. Cummings, Clementina L, Cummings, Marie Somers and Clara Carrington
Founder Is Expelled.
Following the filing of the request the Society, it is alleged, under direction of President McIntosh, suspended all of these members, this being done in October, 1929. However, early in November the suspension of seven, of these pedons was lifted, but Messrs Carrington and Yearwood were expelled. Interviewed by an Age representative, Mr. Carrington said that the Societyay was founded by him on September 7, 1913, and that papers of incorporation were granted on May 5, 1916.
During 1926 the property at 4 West 118th street was purchased for $34,000, the Society paying $8,000 cash. To date, said Mr Carrington, $3,000 has been paid on the mortgage, giving the Society an equity of $11,000.
Says President Paid No Rent.
Mr. Carrington states that the principal object of the Society is to take care of the sick and burry the dead through voluntary contributions from the members, and that there are charity and real estate departments. The gross mismanagement is charged to the offices of the secretary, treasurer and manager. He charges further that the president, Mr. McIntosh, was found to have occupied an apartment in the building for eighteen months, paying no rent during that period and that he only moved from the building during January, 1930

CHANNING TOBIAS HEARD BY TOLEDO INTERRACIALS Spoke Four Times Daily For Four Days Before Interracial Groups
CHANNING TOBIAS HEARD BY TOLEDO INTERRACIALS Spoke Four Times Daily For Four Days Before Interracial Groups
Toledo, Ohio—The guest speaker for Interracial Week, just closed here, was Channing H Tobias, National Y. M. C. A., secretary of New York. For the past five years Toledo has been observing Interracial Week, but never before has there been a program that touched so many areas of community life and proved so effective in changing long-set interracial attitudes.
Mr. Tobias averaged as many as four speaking engagements, a day for four days. His first appointment was as speaker at the Sunday morning service of the history of Washington. Congregational Church, made famous a generation ago by Marton Lawrence, international Sunday school leader. In this address Mr. Tobias challenged his hearers to respond to the religion, and spirit of Jesus of Nazr.
six rooms, being "railroad" apartments. This would mean a rental of $450 monthly or $3,400 annually. In spite of this, charges Mr. Carrington, there has been no benefit derived by the members other than the payment of $1,000 on the mortgage, during a period of nearly four years. In other words, he saves, out of a gross rental of approximately $21,000, it apparently, has taken $17,000 to the office apartment for that period, and he believes his charge of gross mismanagement will be upheld by the referee. At present, he said, the property is probably being handled by the banking committee, although the officers named are still functioning Assistant District Attorneys. Thomas B. Dyett of 200 West 135th street is attorney for the accused officers
arth, which - magnified human brotherhood.
"The time is past," the speaker declared, "when the Church can satisfy its brotherhood conscience by sending barrels of old clothes to Negroes in the South or in the Real question or whether or not the church will open its doors of membership to all the sons and daughters of God without respect to race, color or language."
To School Principals
Another important meeting that the guest speaker addressed was the assembly of school principals with the city Superintendent of Education to discuss questions of relationships between colored and white teachers, and colored and white students. Thorough preparation had been made for this assembly through a report by Mrs. Kennedy, a colored teacher, on certain conflict situations that she had handled during her last years of publication both books and periodicals, by and about Negroes, had been prepared looking forward to distribution in the schools for educational purposes.
Other meetings addressed by Mr. Tobias were a mass meeting at the Douglass Community Center, another mass meeting at the Collinwood Avenue Presbyterian Church (white); the Ministerial Alliance assembly, Y, M, C, A, and Y W, C, A forums; an address before the Exchange Luncheon Club, probably the largest businessman's club in the city at which time Fletcher Henderson's orchestra furnished the music, and finally, and probably most significant, he was the Lincoln Birthday orator at the Kawaii Club.
The Interracial observance in Toledo is promoted by the local Federation of Churches in cooperation with civic organizations. This committee is made up of people of both races, with Dr. B. F. McWilliams, pastor of the colored Baptist Church, as chairman. The Chairman of the program committee was Dr. C. A. Wood of the Presbyterian Church Herbert L. Miller, secretary of the Y. M. C. A and C W. Stannecker of the Douglas Community Center, cooperated. The outstanding social event of the week was a banquet given by the Square Club of the Y. M. C. A.
Couple Held On Federal Charge After Acquittal By District Court
Couple Held On Federal Charge After Acquittal By District Court
Oklahoma City, Okla — A Federal charge of assault with a dangerous weapon was filed Saturday against John and La Tosca Young. Negro couple acquitted by a State District Court jury at Stillwater of the murder of O P. Butler or End, Federal Prohibition agent. A Deputy Marshal was sent to Stillwater to take custody of the pair.
The charge was filed in connection with an alleged attack on George S. Donhour, another dry agent, who was with Butler when he was killed. It was issued on a complaint from the office of Ree de Monbrum, District Prohibition Administrator.
The acquittal was attributed by County Attorney, Ernest F Jenkins to the fact that the Federal search warrant used by the agents in entering the home was gold invalid because its description of the location of the Young home erred in distance by one-shelf mile, and to the presentation of the defense contention that the State did not prove the presence of whiskey in the house.

INTERRACIAL GROUP SEEKS MILLION FUND
Dr. Moton Heads Drive To Raise Money For 10-Year Period
Atlanta, Ga.-Dr. Robert R. Moton, president of Tuskegee Institute, has accepted the leadership of a campaign to raise $1,360,000 to continue the work of the Commission on Interracial Cooperation through another 'ten-year period. The campaign is sponsored by a committee of nationally-known financiers, educators and religious leaders of both races, and two pledges aggregating $500,000 have already been received - $400,000 from Spelman Fund and $100,000 from the Conference Fund. Confidence in the express that the remaining $660,000 will be promptly pledged when the need has been made known
Organized In 1919.
The beneficiary of the campaign, popularly known as the Interracial Commission, was organized by a group of Southern leaders in 1919 in the hope of checking the wave of interracial conflict that spread across the country at that time resulting in numerous destructive race riots North and South. After meeting this emergency, it set out upon a constructive program of interracial adjustment, including the correction of oppressive conditions affecting Negroes and the improvement of those interracial attitudes out of, which unfavorable conditions grow. The Commission conducts a far-reaching educational program through the press, through religions and civic organizations, in schools and colleges, and from the platform, and deals with specific situations through a large number of state and local interracial committees.
Both Races Represented.
It's membership comprises a hundred representative men and women of both races, and the affiliated committees enlist more than a thousand others. Its work has attracted favorable attention throughout the United States and abroad. Though the Commission has made no effort to organize outside the South, its methods have been widely adopted in other sections of the country and also in South Africa, where there is a similar movement well under way. Among the prominent colored leaders sponsoring the campaign, along with Dr Moton, a e Dr Mordecai Johnson, Dr John Hope, Bishop Robert E. Jones, Dr George E. Haynes, Fred R. Moore, C.-C Spaulding, Watt Terry and Dr. Channing T. Tobas.
