Those who listen in will remember that on Thursday night, Amos called up his girl friend, Ruby Taylor, by long distance to Chicago, And when he asked the operator the charge, he found that it was 2.45. This occasioned the usual remark Andy who can always the relied upon to scoff at anything that Amos does.

Whereas, the aforementioned Capper bill, in conjunction with a bill previously introduced by former Congressman Robinson of the State of Kentucky, both offering legislation, for the purpose of standardizing the system of education in the United States and adadent territory, would not merely prove to the unconstitutional and offensive to the people of the United States, but a most damaging and dangerous barrier to the educational progress and religious teachings of the nation's posterity etc. The last paragraph states that the bill is an encroachment on the truth, and would ultimately precipitate a chaotic, and disastrous condition.

As an example of the kind of work done by the members of the Commission, reference was made in a pamphlet explaining its aims and purposes, to a scene in a Southern city where a race riot was believed to be impending. The white people had heard that the Negroes were drilling and immediately armed themselves for defense and regarded all Negroes with hostile intentions. The Negroes for their part, hearing of these preparations, either prepared for self-defense or slipped away by night. Only a spark was needed to set the mine and bring about the explosion. EDUCATIONAL NEEDS. While special interest has been felt in the composition and plan of operations of the President's commission to Haiti, in adherence of the intention to eventually withdraw the armed forces of this government and end the American occupation, it must not be lost sight of that there is an auxiliary commission, which has an important work to perform bearing on the future of the Haitian people. This is the special commission headed by Dr. Robert R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute, the purpose of which is to make a complete survey of the educational needs of the Haitian people. Dr. Moton has selected the following well-known educators to assist in this work: Dr. Mordecal Johnson, principal of Howard University; Professor Leo M.awrot, secretary of the General Education Board; Dr. W. T. B. Williams, dean of the college department of Muskegee Institute. It is expected that this commission will leave for Haiti at an early date to begin its labors. While the mission of the first commission, to investigate political conditions and arrange for the restoration of self-government, may appear to be the most important issue of the present, the mapping out of an adequate educational system to promote the making of good citizenship will have a manifest bearing on the future of the island and its people. Most of the Latin-American nations which have essayed in their form of government to follow that of the United States, have been hampered by the lack of primary education for the masses of the people. This has made it difficult to adopt and carry out democratic procedures in the choice of rulers and the conduct of any form of government. Consequently, most of these governments have taken on more of the characters of dictatorship than a republic, and the strong man who controlled the fighting forces was dominated the government. The only way to change a government of this kind was by a stronger man arising among the people and promoting a revolution. Hence revolution was merely the equivalent for what we call an election. Popular education based upon the American system may change all this, so far as Haiti is concerned, and with the spread of education among the masses, the theory of democratic government may be worked out in practice. It must be remembered that the civilization of the Haitians is based upon French models and that the people possess the Latin imperialism and tendencies. It has been the custom of the educated Haitians to lend their children to France for their higher education and their literature and language are French. This fact should not be ignored in considering the educational needs of the masses. The reports of the opening sessions of the political commission indicate a disposition to look to the shaping of the future, rather than to recalling the errors of the past. A similar disposition on the part of the educational commission is to be expected. While special interest has been felt in the composition and plan of operations of the President's commission to Haiti, in furtherance of the intention to eventually withdraw the armed forces of this government and end the American occupation, it must not be lost sight of that there is an auxiliary commission, which has an important work to perform bearing on the future of the Haitian people. This is the special commission headed by Dr. Robert R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute, the purpose of which is to make a complete survey of the educational needs of the Haitian people. Suddenly the Interracial Commission stepped into the picture and a small group of the leaders of both races assembled and conferred about the situation. They discovered the caused of the trouble to be that the members of a Negro lodge had been drilling every night in order to prepare for an elaborate funeral, with no thought of hostility toward anybody. As soon as the committee could pass this word to both sides danger of a race riot was averted. Dr. Moton has selected the following well-known educators to assist in this work: Dr. Mordecal Johnson, principal of Howard University; Professor Leo M. Favrot, secretary of the General Education Board; Dr. W. T. B. Williams, dean of the college department of Tuskegee Institute. It is expected that this commission will leave for Haiti at an early date to begin its labors. While the mission of the first commission, to investigate political conditions and arrange for the restoration of self-government, may appear to be the most important issue of the present, the mapping out of an adequate educational system to promote the making of good citizenship will have a manifest bearing on the future of the island and its people. The theory is advanced-by the Commission that wrong attitudes on racial relations are absorbed and become fixed in early life. If they are to be avoided, measures must be taken in this formative period to establish correct impressions. This must be done by training in the common schools, and in the training of teachers. Arbitrary segregation is also assailed as one of the most pronounced causes of racial friction all over the world. A scientific study of this phase of the situation is being undertaken, with a view to arrive at an intelligent policy to be pursued. Most of the Latin-American nations which have essayed in their form of government to follow that of the United States, have been hampered by the lack of primary education for the masses of the people. This has made it difficult to adopt and carry out democratic procedure in the choice of rulers and the conduct of any form of government. Consequently, most of these governments have taken on more of the characters of dictatorship than a republic, and the strong man who controlled the fighting forces has dominated the government. The only way to change a government of this kind was by a stronger man arising among the people and promoting a revolution. Hence a revolution was merely the equivalent for what we call an election. The field for the work of the Commission is large and the need for its ameliorating influence is growing greater every day. President Hoover's letter should be taken as putting the stamp of official approval on a movement that should enlist the cooperation of every good citizen. COLONEL ON THE ACTIVE LIST. According to an army order issued last week by the War Department, Benjamin O. Davis was promoted from the rank of Lieutenant Colonel to that of Colonel of Cavalry. Colonel Davis is the only Negro line officer remaining in the Army since the retirement of Lieutenant Colonel John E. Green last November. Neither of these two officers was a graduate of West Point, but each won his commission by promotion from the grade of noncommissioned officer. Colonel Davis' promotion to the rank of Colonel came as the result of semoirity in the service; he having been appointed a First Lieutenant in 1898. He is not subject to retirement for age until July 1, 1941. Popular education based upon the American system may change all this, so far as Haiti is concerned, and with the spread of education among the masses, the theory of democratic government may be worked out in practice. It must be remembered that the civilization of the Haitians is based upon French models and that the people possess the Latin temperament and tendencies. It has been the custom of the educated Haitians to send their children to France for their higher education and their literature and language are French. This fact should not be ignored in considering the educational needs of the masses. The late Colonel Charles Young only reached that rank upon his retirement from active service, upon the breaking out of the World War. If he had not been retired at that time he would have been eligible for promotion to the rank of Brigadier General in the American Expeditionary Forces, which would have been too much for the Wilson Administration to grant, although it did appoint Emmett J. Scott as Special Assistant to the Secretary of War. It was a different sort of narrow mindedness, that made President Wilson refuse to send either Colonel Roosevelt or General Wood abroad with the army. The reports of the opening sessions of the political commission indicate a disposition to look to the shaping of the future, rather than to recalling the errors of the past. A similar disposition on the part of the educational commission is to be expected. INTERRACIAL COOPERATION. The commission on Interracial Cooperation, an organization composed largely Southerners, members of both races, cently received a letter of commendation of its work, addressed by President to Dr. R. R. Moton, who is viceresident chairman of the Stabilization und. In his letter Mr. Hoover said: The commission on Interracial Cooperation, an organization composed largely of Southerners, members of both races, recently received a letter of commendation of its work, addressed by President Hoover to Dr. R.

In his letter Mr. Hoover said: Colonel Davis is now assigned to duty at the Reserve Officers' training camp at Wilberforce, Ohio, which is a post of dignity and usefulness. Whether he will ever be assigned to the command of a regiment of cavalry is doubtful.

The two colored officers besides Colonel Young, who graduated from West Point, did not rise higher than the rank of Lieutenant. 'It is of record that more than three hundred, colored officers served in the voluntary army in the war with Spain, and the non-commissioned officers of the four colored regiments proved their ability to carry on in the absence of any higher officers.

TO BETTER HOUSING CONDITIONS. Any measure that aims to improve housing conditions for the inmates of crowded city tenements is to be well remedied, if it appears to afford a practical remedy. Assemblyman Francis E. Rivers of Harlem has introduced two bills of this nature, a hearing upon which was held before the Judiciary Committee at Albany one.day last week. Both of these bills provide for the stay of summary proceedings to evict tenants when unremoved violations are pending against the premises occupied. The object of this legislation is to protect the tenant against landlord, who fails to keep his property tenantable condition by complying with the requirements of the proper authorities who impose the violations. It has been found that in many instances landlords ignore the orders of the Tenement House Commission, and action by Magistrate's Court has proved ineffective as a means of compelling them to keep apartments and halls in proper repair. When this condition is so serious as to make the premises what may be called tenantable, this bill would prevent the landlord from suing to oust the tenant until the violation had been removed. It is easy to say that the tenant would do well to move himself, but when there is a capacity of available apartments he is frequently compelled to suffer the ills he knows of, rather than be forced out of the sidewalk. From this point of view, Mr.Rivers' bill should seem to meet an actual emergency and tend to compel landlords to keep the premises in at least tenantable condition, if they expect to collect any rent from their tenants. The first bill was so drawn that it was modified to some extent to meet the objections of the landlords their interests have been safeguarded by the provision that no stay will be granted when the condition complained of shall have been brought about by the willful negligent act of the tenant. The bill has been endorsed by many civic organizations and it is believed that its revised form it will be acceptable to all interests, except the real estate boards, which steadfastly oppose any limitation of the rights of a landlord to similarly dispossess any tenant. The interests of both landlords and tenants would be better served if they could get close together and reach a more amicable understanding on the subjects of rents and improvements. While the tenants are entitled to have the premises for which they may rent in tenantable condition, the landlord is entitled to collect his rent when due to a sufficient amount to afford an adequate return on his investment. Both parties have their rights, and each should respect the rights of the other. Where landlord are not amenable to reason, such legislation as that provided in Mr.Rivers' bill necessary.

BISHOP SHIPMAN'S CONCERN. Bishop Shipman has made the discovery that, among other large and distinct groups, New York has living in it the largest number of colored people within diocese in America. This discovery has heralded over the radio by the Subang Bishop of New York in the course of the Episcopal Church Hour a few weeks ago. He found that Harlem was city in itself, where there are living two hundred and fifty thousand colored people coming from many places. Not only were people coming to it from all over Bishop Shipman has made the discovery that, among other large and distinctive groups, New York has living in it the largest number of colored people within any diocese in America. This discovery was heralded over the radio by the Suffragon Bishop of New York in the course of the Episcopal Church Hour a few weeks ago. He found that Harlem was a city in itself, where there are living two hundred and fifty thousand colored people coming from many places. Not only were people coming to it from all over the country, but as fast as the immigration quotas would allow, from British Guiana, Venezuela, Chili, Porto Rico, and above all from every island in the West Indies. The good bishop hailed this great group, augmented by immigration, as affording a great opportunity for the Episcopal Church. He held that the Church had not as yet accepted the opportunity nor adequately met the challenge. He emphasized the need for greater church facilities for these people in Harlem. With between twenty-five thousand and forty thousand colored people, who he said turn to the Episcopal church as their own, he found in the eleven colored Episcopal churches in Harlem, or within easy reach, seating capacity for only eight thousand people at any service. That means, according to the good bishop, that were all the churches filled on, a Sunday morning, from seventeen thousand to thirty thousand could not get into a church. His conclusion is that we need more churches and in some cases better churches for the colored people in Harlem. This is a conclusion that will be-disputed by those matter-of-fact persons, who believe that we already have too many churches and that any surplus funds should be put into factories and department COMMENTS BY THE AGE EDITORS ON SAYINGS OF OTHER EDITORS Advising the victims of racial discrimination to use the courts of Minnesota in order to obtain redress, the Twin-City Herald of Minneapolis said: Two colofed women were refused service in, the lunchroom of a downtown department store last week. This condition is rapidly becoming more acute in Minneapolis designee state laws against such actions. Persons refused service in any public restaurant, hotel, etc., on account of color or race should seek punishment of guilty firms since it is a misdemeanor to refuse any man or woman food or such service in this state. Discriminating firms are also subject to civil suits for damages. The Negro lawyers in Minneapolis and St. Paul, assisted by some real red-blooded citizens, could if they wanted to, stop these discriminating practices in a few weeks. The general public is sometimes negligent in demanding their rights. The lawyers, business and professional people owe it to themselves and their people to see that these aforementioned conditions are ended. As the Herald has said before: "A discriminating restaurant owner a day, in court, will keep all discriminations away." Those leaders who complain of the lethargy of the masses may show the masses the way by taking up the cudgels against the restaurants, cafes, and other concerns that discriminate against law abiding citizens. Just because some of our lighter complexioned folks are accommodated without trouble at various places is no reason why they should feel so self-satisfied and smug. The insults visited on their darker brothers today, will visit them tomorrow. Special emphasis was laid on the need of action by the N. A. A. C. P. to enlist the services of members of the bar in fighting these discriminations. Addressing an earnest injunction to real estate owners to protect property values, the Chicago Whip pointed out some dangerous practices that lead to depreciation. It said: While colored people own or a buying a great deal of property on the southside, they do not control all of the property in which colored people live. A vast amount of this property is owned by white people who are thinking mainly of the yield that they are getting from their investment. These owners, living in exclusive suburbs, think only of the returns and very little, about the condition of the property in as much colored people are living in these houses. This paper has called attention to property owners on South Florida where owners are permitting all sorts of basement stores to open up in the finest kinds of residential property. This is being done in open violation to zoning laws and is a means to make each piece of property to produce more revenue. This practice spoils many blocks on Michigan Avenue and South Parkway as purely residential neighborhoods. Property owners have recourse in the matter if they are willing to fight for their rights. These grocery stores, cleaning establishments and various other business concerns run values of residential property and would not be tolerated in another section of the city. When it is colored property owner, who is trying to protect his life's savings invested in south side property, raises his voice in protest, he finds that the absentee owners interested in big yields seem to have more influence than he has who lives in the property he owns. Organized effort will root out these stores which are eye sores to what are otherwise two of Chicago's most beautiful thoroughfares. Drastic steps will have to be taken in order that we may not again be accused of something of which we are guiltless. Let's fight to keep these boulevards beautiful in spite of the absentee owners. Absentee ownership of residential property is apt to lead to deterioration of neighborhood standards of living, especially when the rental returns are the main consideration. The zoning laws should be invoked to protect resident owners. Discussing the question, "Can the A. M. E. Church Afford to Stand Behind Bishop Carey?" the Birmingham Reporter said, in referring to an editorial suggestion of the Christian Recorder: Perhaps Editor Wright believes in the Bishop's innocence and his devotion to high moral idealism; and perhaps, the Bishop is the unsuspecting victim of a plot, but the fact that his situation is the result of humoral motives and persistent dabbling in ward politics, makes it clear that there is much more to be lost by the Church in following his lead than by the loss of his influence and service. Whether the court does or does not find him guilty it ought to be a matter of little concern to the Church. To be found guilty of taking bribes outside of the Church would hardly affect his moral status as made by the laws of the Church. The assumption that the Church puts the stamp of approval on conduct that will not pass muster in political organizations is just as clear as it is stores. But it is so unusual to find a bishop of the Episcopal church evincing such marked interest in his darker brethren, that we have to note Bishop Shipman's radio appeal as an evidence of a newly aroused concern for their welfare. astounding from the Allenite's statements. Certainly, Bishops cannot get by with their financial manipulations anything like so, well in a political organization as in the Church. Whether this is the Church's or the political organization's compliment, we cannot say. In the Church they're merely under the law of conscience and when they haven't that it is just too bad for all those who think that moral rights can be made to be respected without force. If Bishop Carey follows the course of ward politicians recently tried for bribe taking and must serve a sentence, he can be of the A. M. E. Church still just as well as he has been, that is, he will be no better nor any worse; he will have broken no laws of the Church and be considered a victim of a plot outside the Church. Of course, there must be, some method in the delay of the trial. The April primary in Chicago usually brings about strange coincidences, and is may be that a political storm of such magnitude will rise that, at all events, a conviction will be impossible. In view of what has happened, what ever happens now, it would pay the A. M. E. Church to stand behind its child of error, but let its stand be far enough behind to avoid any appearance of support. The persistent indifference of the church authorities to the charges made by one of their general officers, in the Young Allenite, has helped to create this anomalous situation. In a seating editorial headed "George Washington, the Slave Driver," the Baltimore Afro-American undertook to discover the kind of man that Washington really was. After showing Washington's hard treatment of his slaves, the writer said: Eventually the emancipation movement, which had been fostered by Thomas Jefferson, of Washington's own state and others, spread throughout the thirteenth original states, and Washington the slave driver grew ashamed of his crimes. Even though tobacco raising grew less profitable on his plantations, he gave his slaves a holiday to attend horse races, but emancipated none. In 1790 Warren Moffitt, a Quaker, called at the "White House" to speak for a resolution then before Congress to emancipate the slaves. In his diary, President Washington said that Mifflin discussed the "immorality, injustice and impolice on slavery, and argued for gradual abolition." "I declined to express an opinion," said "the father of our country," giving as a reason that the matter might come before him in an official way later. This was Washington the politician, whose humanity suffered by comparison with that of his contemporary, Thomas Paine, Revolutionary pamphleteer, who "took a crack at slavery wherever it raised its head." Said Paine: "Slavery is economic stapidity, since revenue is raised on consumption, and a squandled slaves consume less than a mere share of fortune when the interest of government and that of humanity act unitedly. But above all, I defend the cause of humanity." At the age of 64, so the story runs, Washington, chasing a slave to administer a flogging, fell into a stream, caught cold and died two days later. He was the country's first, and probably its richest President (excepting Hoover). His estate was estimated at a half million dollars (a great fortune for those days) in acres, herds, and SLAVES. This is a side of Washington's character which has received but little attention from his biographers, mostly eulogists until the arrival of Rupert Hughes. Expatiating upon the arrangement of "White Chicken Thieves in Missouri," the St. Louis Argus said: "It is quite interesting when you think of it seriously, that right here in Missouri, there is a white family of five, a father/mother, and three sons, all under a five years sentence in the state penitentiary charged with stealing chickens. Our interest in this case is despite the fact that stealing chickens is a crime that the white people generally lay at the door of colored people, yet in all the history of the crime we have never heard of a whole family of colored people being convicted and sentenced for the crime. Then, too, in this connection, it is well to remember that it is as a general rule easier to convict a colored person of suspected crime than it is to convict whites for the same offense. Therefore, it is quite natural for us to assume that this white family must have been guilty of wholesale chicken stealing in their community. And while it is true that we get no particular satisfaction or "kick" out of the fact that this white family was convicted of invading their neighbors' roost, yet this incident may serve to disabuse the minds of some white people that all chicken thieves are colored. This is of the same stripe as the discovery that crap shooting and jazz dancing are popular diversions among white people.

RUSSELL The electric fuse is the guarding of its particular circuit, and should so be considered, says the New York State Committee on Public Utility Information. A fuse is simply a connecting link of soft metal which will melt at a certain temperature. If the circuit is overloaded by the use of appliances using more power than it was designed to carry, the wire heats. Before overheating occurs the fuse melts and breaks the circuit, cutting off the current and preventing possible accidents. When a fuse burns out, it means that something is wrong, and it is advisable to find out what it is before reconnecting the same appliances. Extra fuses of the correct size should be kept in the house to replace those which have given out in line of duty. New York State owns one volcano, fortunately extinct. It is Stark's Knob, upon which Col. John Stark mounted a battery of guns during the Battle of Saratoga. Hunting, fishing and trapping licenses are issued yearly to about 70,000 sportsmen in New York State. It is estimated that more than two million game animals are taken each year. In 1929, 8,269 automobile drivers licenses were revoked in New York State, about a third of them for intoxication. There were also 14,481 suspensions of licenses. Pugilism last year brought to the treasury of New York State nearly a quarter of a million dollars. This was from taxes, boxing clubs and licenses for boxes, referees and seconds. The Week of March 8 Astrologically Considered no changes. Attention to the job or business that is already at hand will be the best plan for every one born on March 9 in the coming birthyear. Family matters will bring some worry and unexpected changes. Those who do things on impulse will regret it very much. Not a very good year for romance or marriage. The coming birthyear for those of March 10 promises much happiness through social and professional matters. There is likely to be some difficulty in the employment because of differences of opinion, and it is advisable that nothing be written or spoken that will cause regret. Legal matters are not advisable. The financial out look is good. The health of some member of the family will cause concern. The people of March 11 will need the coming birthyear rather good from a financial point of view, and in any business or profession that has already been established. For new plans will hardly be worth the time and effort expended. The people of this date who have been in ill health will find the health improving considerably. It will not be advisable to do things impulsively. A very good year for those who can think well and try to make no changes. March 12 begins a birthyear that will require infinite patience and a deep faith in the Creator; after the year seems to be a bit more nearly every way. This is the kind of birthyear that would whether a person is made of good or only of dross. Quarrels and thoughts-conduct will only bring deep happiness. Observe the friend whom you know was born on this date in any year, and see if the friend is really trying to understand or gives up at the start. The people of March 13 will be able to make a great deal of headway if they can curb the tendency to spend money without thinking. The coming year promises financial gain, but equally as much financial expense. Romance or marriage should not be considered. Family changes and difficulties in the employment are indicated. March 14 begins a birthyear that promises some very great changes in the domestic circle. The people of today who are employed should be very careful not to antagonize the superior in the employment, for a new job will be hard to get. There seems to be a friend who will help in the time of need, and the people of today who can have faith and patience will find the year worth while for the lessons that have been learned.

Editor of The New York Age: The charge has been frequently made that the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People is a political organization and that it takes sides in partisan politics. Recently, this charge has been reiterated in the case of the appointment of nineteen Negro physicians to the staff of Harlem Hospital in New York City. It seems necessary from time to time to reiterate our political stand. We believe that the exercise of political power is the key to our survival in the United States. We believe in addition that this political power must be exercised, not at the dictation of parties, but which is dependent on Negro votes for those candidates and for those measures which seem to be for the best interest of the American Negro. For this reason, many of us have in the past strongly advocated the support of Congressman Dyer in Missouri, the author of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill; of Senator La Follette in Wisconsin, Progressive candidate for President; and of the Democratic Mayor Walker in New York City. In these cases, the Association and its spokesmen are not presuming to dictate the individual vote of the members of the Association. They are simply saying, this candidate or that has done what the Association asks or favors and if you are convinced of this, it is a wise policy to vote for such candidates. In the case of the Harlem Hospital we were advocating neither parties nor individuals. We had no favored physicians, or medical men who were our enemies. We have simply been asking during a long campaign that the color bar against the appointment of competent Negro physicians in the hospitals of New York should be broken down. Gradually, this has been done, and in the appointment of nineteen Negro physicians to the staff of a great hospital in the midst of a black population of 150,000 in New York City, we see a great triumph in the principle which we have been fighting for. This is what we have been fighting for and this is all we have been fighting for. We do not for amoment pretend to judge as to whether all the individual selections are the best or not; that is a matter for expert opinion. But we do say that if a man is an expert physician, his race or By "THEARCHER" The latter part of 1935, all of 1936, and the first part of 1937 will be memorable years for all the people of this week, for the vibrations of this future period will be intense, and the folks of this week would do well to learn from a competent astrologist just what to do and what not to do to get the best out of these years. The people of this week naturally are inclined to look on the pessimistic side of all things, although there are a few bright exceptions. They are forever crying, "Woe is me," and all the while making their own woes. This period will affect all the folks who were born on and between February 19 to March 20 in any year, but with more or less difference because of the planetary conditions at birth. The birthyear for March 8 promises gain and success from a strictly business point of view. Romance or marriage will prove rather difficult for every one of today and it is advisable that those who are married stay that way and try to analyze their own faults instead of the marriage partners' Taults. Those who are single should remain single. Family affairs will cause some worry. This is a very good year for those who can stick to old plans and make as original by some white musicians, who have copied from their colored conferees. Under a Washington date line, there was printed in the Loussile-Neus a statement from the Resident Commissioner from the Philippines, repudiating certain sentiments expressed by one Jose A. De Jesus, in an article published in a Manila paper. De Jesus claimed that Negroes are the people of the "lowest karat in the whole world." He stated that due to the offensiveness of their faces, color, hair, smell, manner of speech, dress and habits in general, they are treated really better by white Americans than they deserve. Commissioner Guevara wrote, "It is needless for me to say that I hate racial prejudice. I believe, as you know, in equality, and the only standard by which I measure a person is his ability and intellectual reparation. Furthermore, I wish to say that I sincerely believe that one of the world's follies is the so-called raial prejudice, and after we have gone, whether we are black, white, brown, or yellow, we merely return to ashes in which state color is immaterial. It is really unhappy that one of my people should ever have raised this question. I wish to offer my apologies to you and your people, hoping the matter will be forgotten and considered as closed." The Commissioner's letter was addressed to Maj. W. H. Loving, who spent several years in the Philippines as bandmaster of the United States army. ```markdown ``` --- Know New York State STAR : ee ‘ ne : "i ant wee | oo ~ oa 7 PB i RO Ee Sane Saturdey,.

February-25, by the score of 19-15. The score was 12-9 in favor of Harlem at end of first half, but the Lincolnites rallied in the second half, scoring six points, while the little Harlemites could only get three, making the score 15—all at end of the regular four 10-minute quarters. Neither team could score in the first extra period, but in the last couple of minutes of the second added period, the Harlem girls weakened and Lincoln dribbed and passed the ball twice to its opponent's goal, adding four points. Harlem had several chances, to score from the foul line in the first added period, and a successful throw would have won the game. But their foul tossers failed to come through. Big Crowd Present. Renaissance Casino was jammed to its uttermost capacity with friends and admirers of both teams. The crowd was so great in fact, as to encrowd upon the playing field, and one of the amusing incidents of the evening occurred when one of four Lincoln rooters, clad in dashing white sailor suits, was bowled over by the rushing players when the ball went over towards the southeast corner where the Lincoln rooters were grouped. Only two foul goals were thrown during the game, one by Rhodes for Harlem, and one by Marshall for Lincoln. Officials of both hospitals were present, occupying gaily decorated boxes, Harlem on Northside and Lincoln on the South. A group of twenty nurses from Bellevue made the long journey uptown to boost the Harlem girls, accompanied by Miss Rothmann, superintendent of nurses for Bellevue and Allied Hospitals. Dancing After Game. Before and after the game, the nurses—and their hundreds of friends enjoyed dancing to Vernon Andrade's music.

The Bear gave a splendid exhibition of passing and show the game should be played, at times baffling the Lions with their superb floor work. The score at the end of the first half was 22-3. Lincoln attempted a spectacular comeback in the last five minutes of play but could not catch the big lead. Capt Lanky Jones of Morgan was high scorer, with a total of 18 points, while DeCosta and Captain Avery played best for the visitors. Jamaica Vagabonds Beat Majestic Five Jamaica, L.

The winning team is composed of the Headley brothers, Teddy Ford, Gholston, Brooks, Coverdale and Jimmy and although this is their first year, they have a good combination and have met the best in their class this season.

J.-The 1929 ratings of the American Tennis Association released for publication this week by J. Mercer Burrell, secretary, show many startling changes in the positions of the leading tennis palyers of the A. T. A. The ratings were made by the Committee headed by Miss Laura V. Junior of Philadelphia who has been a member of the Rating Committee of the A. T. A. for more than seven years. The Committee was limited in its choice by the official rating scale and rules of the A. T. A.; however, the Committee was allowed discretionary powers based on personal views of players and other factors. Many organizations failed to send in the official record of tournament play and, consequently, persons competing in such unreported tournaments could not be credited with points for competition. Several players of note suffered from this situation, but the Committee had no alternative, being compelled to rate on the official score sheets filed with the Committee within the time required by the rules. Men's Singles First Ten. Edgar G. Brown of Chicago, winner of the 1929 Nationals, is rated at No. 1. This was Brown's fourth National title and there is little doubt that he is the premier strategist in colored tennis. As in former years, Brown suffered a defeat in the New York Open, losing to the "King of Go-Getters." Dr. Percy Richardson. However, Brown's form in the Nationals was a true criterion of his ability.

Gets the Last W MAKE OUT YOU LIKE IT! First In Annual an Tennis Association James Stocks of California, at No. 2, was the sensation of the 1929 Nationals and almost realized the prophecy made in last year's comment on the ratings when it was said, "He is a newcomer who promises to be a future national champion." Stocks was rated at No. 8 last year. This young star has a terrific service and a powerful net game, but lacks steadiness and change of pace on his forehand drive. Stocks lost to Brown in the finals of the Nationals and to Sautch in the finals of the New York Open. "Ted" Thompson, former national champion, is rated at No. 3. "Ted" lost a heart-breaking match to Stocks in the semi-finals of the Nationals but won the Southesatern Sectional. He held No. 7 in 1928. Eyre Saitch has finally lost his position as No. 2, largely through bad breaks in the draw of the Nationals when he lost to "Ted" the quarter-finals. He is rated at No. 4, having won the New York Open when he defeated the classy field including six of the 1928 First Ten. Dr E. D. Downing, at No. 5, for the third successive year has lost one place in the ratings. Dr. Downing had a very busy season but only succeeded in winning the Virginia Open in which few First Ten stars were entered. He was defeated by Brown, Stocks and "Ted" in other tournaments. Another player who has suffered his third successive loss of a place is Dr. Sylvester Smith who appears at No. 6. This former champion has played good tennis since his comeback in 1920, but he is beginning to lose his speed. Solomon Worde, the New Jersey champion, returns to the First Ten after four years. "Hap" lost to Stocks in a thrilling match in the Nationals. He appears at No. 7, while last year he was rated at No. 21. Worde's habit of loafing in the final set has kept him from the charmed circle of the First Five during his seven years of competition. At No. 8 is one of the "breaks" of tennis. Dr. Percy Richardson of New York. Percy has a peculiar soft game which is particularly tantalizing to a hard player. His court covering is almost uncanny and he always battles for the last point. He has made tremendous strides from No. 29 in last year's ratings. Lester B. Granger at No. 9 is another veteran of the First Ten who is in a lower position this year, being rated at No. 6 in 1928. Granger made a very creditable record, except in the Nationals where he was defeated in the early rounds by young Ford of California. Granger's backhand drive was the feature of his game during the past season. At No. 10 is Graham of Ohio, also one of the sensations of 1928 who has advanced from No. 19. With a better break in the draw, Graham should go far in the 1930 Nationals. Women's Singles First Run. The most noteworthy change in the entire rating list is the placing of Miss Ora Washington at No. 1 in Women's Singles. As national champion and as the winner over the former national champion, Miss Ballard, in the Southeastern Sectional, Miss Washington is obviously entitled to first honors. She suffered one defeat in the Pennsylvania Open. For several years Miss Washington was No. 2. Mrs Frances Guttens of New York has moved up from No. 8 to No. 2. She was twice defeated by Miss Washington and is credited with two wins over Miss Ballard. She suffered one unexpected defeat at the hands of Mrs Leonard in the leses Open Mrs Guttens has a super drawing game and is a championship threat. At No. 3 is a three times national champion, Miss Lulu Ballard whose left hand delivery was several times solved by Miss Washington and Mrs Guttens and who has at last relinquished her hold on No. 1. Mrs Emma Leaard is steadily advanced since 1920 and is rated next to Miss Ballard. This diminutive female star scored a tremendous upset by defeating Mrs Guttens in the finals of the New Jersey Open Miss Leadora Channel. four times holder of the national title is rated at No. 5. She was No. 4 in 1928. Junior Singles. Nathaniel Jackson of North Carolina played a beautiful driving game to win the national title and was placed at No. 1 succeeding "Reggie" Were who was abroad at the time of the Nationals. Alfred Walker retains his position at No. 2 forald 1. Negman, Jr. moves up from No. 0 to No. 3. Thomas Callows at No. 1 was not rated in 1928 but held No. 3 position in 1927. Reginald Hawkins of Philadelphia is now the man who will be heard from in the future. A respected White player to play in the Nationals, but he made VAUDE ord By I'll make out I'm eating it! American New Vets of Foreign Wars Stage Successful Benefit at Alhambra Last Saturday midnight there was presented at the Alhambra Theatre the interesting spectacle of a benefit performance for the summer camp and relief work of the Harlem posts of the Veterans of Foreign Wars with a complete obliteration of racial lines. The veterans' post benefitting were the Dorrence Brooks, Nathan Davis and Moe Wolf Posts. Their colors and standards were displayed on the stage, along with those of the Steinkemp, a visiting post, and the fraternal spirit recalled the days of equally-shared dangers and heroism in France. The program opened with the stirring strains of the famous 369th Regiment Band and closed four a good record in other tournaments Frank Jackson dropped from No 5 to No. 6, McDuffie, Summons Kean and Hill are juniors who received their first national ratings. Fyre Sanchez and Dr. Sebester Smith again head the list of Men's Doublets McGraff and Downing Granger and Granger, Holmes and Thompson, and Brown and Davis are again rated this year. The new team of Stocks and Ford is the most noteworthy of the new teams. Members of the majority of the other teams have previously been rated but with different partners. Women's Doubles. For the fifth consecutive year Misses L Ballard and O Washington are rated at No. 1 in Women's Doubles. This team appears to be practically unbeatable as all the other combination, do not compare either in strokes or team work. The new team of Mrs Gittens and Mrs Smith came to the front in a startling manner, winning several tournaments and reaching the finals of the Nationals Mrs Gittens has personally been rated with Miss Junior. Mrs Leonard and Mrs Conick at No. 3 are both known from previous play with other partners. The same can be said of Mrs Sadler and Miss Junior, while the sister team of Mrs Hamlin and Mrs Caulley make its first appearance in national circles.

Harrison, veteran dramatic reader, and Daniel L. Haynes, who came into prominence recently as a star if the King Vidor movietone, "Halleulijah," with a supporting cast of nearly a hundred people, all colored, to stir the emotions of the most blase, and quicken the pulse beats of the most sophisticated, when they appeared Wednesday night, February 26, in the new Pabinaal play, "The Green Pastures," a Fable, by Marc Connelly, and presented by Laurence Rivers, upon the stage of the Mansfield Theatre, 47th street, west of Broadway. In simple terms, by virtue of forsight and unpretentious these into the many-colored fabric of pianists' achievement, these colored the drama, so completely and enchantable opening night audience an harmony of either sight or sound. Contributing to the success of three hours—from 8:40 to 11:30—and not even the hard-boiled new-paper reporters left their seats controlled, giving full life and vigor until the final curtain. The play, stimulated by Old Testament stories, told by Roark Bradley in his "Ol' Man an' His Chieftain, begins with a scene in a Sunday school room in New Orleans, where the teacher, "Mr. Desher" (Charles H. Moore) is telling his class of children the story of the Creation, as told in the four chapters of Genesis. From the scene change to the heaven's realm, where the cherubim and graphims in their golden robes with glittering wings, are enraining a celestial "fish fry." In exclamation, not this apparent anemone, an author's note, appended to the program, has this to say of the old Odyssey in the deep South: I understood by the difference of the educated theologians, they a certain Old Testament as a christ of wonders which happened to people like themselves in virtual places, and of their industrial, true acceptance of what will lead to a tangible, three-dimensional Heaven.

Contributing to the success of the presentation through the quality of their work, restrained and controlled, giving full life and vigor as needed, but never boisterous or exaggerated, the entire cast deserves commendation. Pomment among these were the brothers, Salem Tutt Whitney as "Nevah," and J. Homer Tutt in the triple role of "Custard Maker," "Ham" and "High Priest"; the old veterans, Jesse A. Shipp as "Archangel" and "Abraham," and Charles Moore as "Isaas," in addition to his initial appearance as "Mr Deshey, Inez Richardson Wilson as "Live"; Dofeshy Rnadolph Peterson as "Cains Girl." Alonzo Fenderson, as "Moses," was a substantial factor, and one of the fine scenes of the play was at the mouth of a cave with Zipporah, his wife (Mercedes Gilbert) "Noah" was another of our outstanding characters, and the scene in which "The Lord, finding Noah, and his family, to be the only God-fearing people left, went into the home to eat a meal prepared by "Noah's Wife" (Suze Sutton), at which time he discussed his identity and warned Noah to prepare the Ark for the impending deluge, was one of the fine moments. A name to her simplicity was afforded when the private attic of 'The Lord,' with its relict top desk and swivel chair, was been given its morning cleaning by 'The Last Cleaner' (Josephine Byrd), and 'The Second Cleaner' (Frances Beeds), who attained it by application to their cleaning thus without the slightest attempt at being other than it was.

When Wm. H. Taft Was President; His Views On Race Appointments (Continued from First Page) In the beginning of my administration what my view was with reference to the appointment of Negroes in communities where the service would be rendered inefficient by reason of race prejudice, and I still adhere to that view. "If you will examine the appointment of Negroes made during my administration I think you will find that I have made as many appointments as were made during any previous administration. Furthermore I am anxious to make more appointments of Negroes to positions where they can discharge their duties efficiently for the public and to constrain on account of local conditions that I can not be blind to. "Returning to your letter of May 21, I expect to appoint Mr. Napier to the Minister of Liberia if he will accept the place." Mr. Napier did not go to Liberia but became Register of the Treasury. Nor did I go to Liberia as I S. Minister although appointed by President Taft and confirmed by the Senate toward the close of his administration. In the course of correspondence is a letter from Charles D. Norton, Secretary to the President, on White House stationery dated July 28, 1910 from Beverly, Mass. President Taft's summer home, acknowledging receipt of a letter from me recommending Mr. Napier's appointment as Register of the Treasury. Another letter from Secretary Nation dated October 21, 1910, a knowledgees my letter of October 29, in which I expressed approval the appointment of Governor Lincoln and Messrs Napier and Lewis. Had Agreed To Appoint Philadelphia. A number of letters were exchanged between the White House and The Age over the naming of a Negro as Assistant U.S. Treasurer of Philadelphia. In asking me to present someone, Secretary N. A. White wrote. The office has been mismanaged and a required administrator of the highest rank, a marshal and enquiries, and a possible, a man who has banking experience and a man who would command the confidence of a force of clerks who have been penalized by fasciation and the arrethrace of their chief. The next time you are in Washington, I should like to show you some letters bearing on the Philadelphia situation about which you are only aware of. One of the principal reasons Negro was named Assistant U.S. Treasurer was due to the inability of Philadelphia to unite on an astounding candidate. President Tatt was kindly dispatched to the Negro. He told me he had no prejudices and wanted to advocate the races' political success. As the beginning of his mission, he made the statement that he intended to go turreted. Theodore Rosevelt in appalling Negroes to positions of office and trust. He explained that in his opinion it was wise to appoint Negroes true in Southern communities where long-standing opposition was manifested against a policy and a matter how disrespected he might be distasteful, the other holders should do it race riots and other disturbances broke out. He expressed the one that the South were more liberal on the subject during his term as President, Mr Tatt recognized Roger L. Washington as cultural leader despite If you're fat—remove the cause!

In this connection the advice of Mr. Washington's friends were heeded, and as editor of The Age it was my privilege to unswervingly advocate that the White House favorably set upon all suggestions and recommendations for appointments sponsored by Booker T. Washington, whom I regarded as leader and friend. Haitians Deny Enmity For American Negroes Haitians Deny Enmity For American Negroes Commenting on the prevalent reports indicating that the Haitian does not have a kindly feeling for the American Negro, 'Capt. Napoleon B. Marshall of New York City, recently returned after six years' service as an attaché to the American Embassy at Port au Prince, Haiti, declares that this is propaganda sent forth by those who would perpetuate the American Occupation. He submits a translation of an editorial printed in Le Nouvelleiste, a paper published in Port au Prince which says that "feeling that the black Party in the United States is still the only organization which naturally, sincerely and automatically sympathizes with the Republic of Haiti . . . everything is done to create and man a firebrand of discord between the colored people of Haiti and the colored people of the United States. "We wish the American people, and above all the government at Washington, to know that it is absolutely false that the Haitians do not wish to see the American Negroes. On the other hand, the Haitians vociferously demand that colored American officials come here in order to now the situation of their race kindred. "Every Haitian sees clearly today that the present situation calls for a commission composed of colored men of high competence who will understand our situation and will make every effort to change it. If the present government of President Borno repels and has always repelled the collaboration of the colored American everybody knows why." Capt Marshall has a letter from Perceval Troby, administrateur-delegue, Union Patriotique, Comite Central, thanking him for his efforts in hehalt of Haiti in the United States, and another from A. Pierre Paul, president of the National Labor Party, Port au Prince, states that Capt. Marshall has been named as representative of the party in the United Staes.

J.—Osie W, Danneman, Negro-messenger for the Port Newark National Bank, was the hero of an attempted holdup Friday morning, February 28, when he refused to halt, when two armed bandits approached him at the entrance of the bank and ran inside with $25,000 in cash. Danneman had gotten the package of money from the Jersey National Bank and Trust Company. He returned to the Port Newark Bank in a taxicab. There were people lounging near the entrance of the Port Newark Bank as rolled up in the taxi. Another man, apparently a musician, was taking the morning sun, standing across the street with a violin case in his arms. As Danneman stepped out of the cab hugging his bundle, the two loungers drew revolvers and rushed him. The colored man turned just in time to see them coming. His feet started moving with an alacrity that would have made a champion marathon spinner open his eyes. "Drop that money," shouted one if the gunman. Danneman hardly heard them. He was yelling at the top of his voice and he was hitting his stride. The gunman wasted no more words. Both fired but it was like trying to hit a jackrabbit. Where the wallets were aimed Danneman wasn't. The messenger, like a spinter breasting the tape, threw his arms up and heaved his package of money inside the bank doors and a second later went sprawling up the steps and inside to safety himself. About the time the policeman appeared in the entrance of the bank, the "musician" across the street calmly opened his violin case, removed a sawed off shot gun and sent a blast of buckshot at the bank. The charge struct Policeman James Bennett, who although was a police officer, the gunmen until they disappeared.

THE NEW YORK AGE TES :- MOUNT BOOKER Mountain In State Named In Honor B By Mrs. Abby Wi THE LAND OF THE LORD Mountain In State of Washington Named In Honor Booker Washington By Mrs. Abby Williams Hill, Painter The above reproduction is printed in The Age, exclusively, through the courtesy of Abby Williams-Hill, white artist and historer of Lacoma, Washington, and is taken from her original painting of "Mt. Booker," named in honor of the late Booker T. Washington, founder and principal of Tuskegee Institute. When Mrs. Hill painted the picture in 1904, the mountain was merely called "The Mountain." She wrote the United States Atomic Survey for the name, and received the reply that "Strong enough that mountain has never had a name and we would like to give you the honor of naming it." Accordingly, Mrs. Hill painted "Mt. Booker, in honor of Power T. Washington, and the painting was exhibited in the Great Northern Railway." In "Siems Washington in the St. Louis World's Exhibition." HOW MT BOOKER RECEIVED ITS NAME "In the heart of some of the finest country in the Northeast, Washington stands a move on mountain, its beautiful, crowned hot town, hides the surrounding peak, the water from its glacier streams and feeding the streams on which it depends, eventually finding a pond in the Columbia River to the Pacific Ocean. In spite of its beauty it had no name when it arrived in 1901. No one ever tried to ever called it a statue, but the Mountain. "The great Northern River wanted the name of the river illustrating the collection of paintings. "Seems, Washington which they were to excavate at the St. Joseph World's Lair, I wrote. "The State of Georgia, a summer country, could easily be called Strangely countryside, but we has never had a name, and we would like to give our name of naming it." A Glorious Monument "Here was a elephant, so much not made by the band, but but carved by the Aborigines. What could be to form it, but it to one of the most terrifying men of our times, great. In serving the Lord, the holy spirit to humanity, to whom he poured was too hard to bear no raging about him chosen to purpose, he did not work but communication of time, but they all came to him. Leader Washington was all this and not I. Leader the Lord in the church sent the name to the United States Geological Survey, where was mapped and a copy of the sap sent to me. "When we look at Mr. Parker let us be thankful for Barker Washington's life, for what he did to us, seemingly in no capable problems, thankful for his mouth, his direction to him, to the marvellous spiritual State, to which blessed, unplotted, inspired and gave courage to all. His influence like the streams from the mountain, will go on through the air to bless and help mankind. The mountain is described in the story Washington is on the mountain, where groups of mountain peaks which frame the Valley of the Stechekin north of Lake Cigplan. In speaking further, Mrs. Hill said, "Greatness is not quality, and has nothing to do with the AMON e of Washington Booker Washington Williams Hill, Painter race pre who he is.

AMONG PULLMAN EMPLOYEES --- THINGS SEEN, HEARD AND DONE AMONG PULLMAN EMPLOYEES THINGS SEEN, HEARD AND DONE AMONG PULLMAN EMPLOYEES By JAMES H. HOGANS Several days ago, a man of Anglo, Saxon type, prosperously groomed, and apparently in his sixties, passed out of one of the Pullman suite of offices on the second floor of the Grand Central Terminal Building. With him was a member of the feminine sex. Several doors away stood four men of African type, engaged in conversation. As the two Nordics came abreast of the four Africans, off, went the hats of the latter Simultaneously, off came the hat of Anglo-Saxon. The two Nordics were Mr. and Mrs. J. A. Ritenau, the former, superintendent of the Pullman Northeastern Zone. The four persons were members of the porter group in this territory. To this observer, that little act of return courtesy on the part of this official was a beautiful exhibition of the real man and the gentleman. There are numerous ways, it is said, by which one can tell whether or not a man is born to the purple skin of the heart of the earth. Perhaps there are, but the epiphysis that courtesy, like charity, begins home has always appeared to be principal wisdom. Anyway, when a man is mindful of the little courtesies of life within his own family, when he gets beyond its boundaries, these acts will come as a matter of habit, if nothing more. The little incident I have mentioned was an illustration that this Pullman executive is a believer in the same sort of philosophy, even to the members of his industrial family. But, then, there is another commandable side of this veteran official. The purely human element of Pullman's working works his way from a clerical job to an executive position in a corporation like the Pullman Company, with its thousands of employees, some of which are victims of their own follies, and some of the follies of others, is without this element to a certain degree. Nevertheless, there are some officials, even in the Pullman system, who possess it in larger proportion than others. During the years I have seen these superintendents come and go, it is my opinion that the employees of the New York district have more or less been fortunate in their superintendents. The two who preceded Mr. Rittenhouse here were both men with sympathetic dispositions. Both had that human understanding of the frailties of human nature, both believe in the tempered hand rather than the iron fist. And although both have gone on their long Journey, it is hardly probable that either will meet the spirits of some of his former employees who will plague him of what he had done to them while here on earth. But though these late officials were broadminded men in dealing with their employees, for some following officers for the ensuing year. President I. Hollingsworth Wood, vice presidents, Robert R. Minton, Mrs Henry G. Leach and William H. Island Hall; secretaries, William H. Baldwin, treasurer, Gordon Cotton. SOCIAL CENTER FOR COLORED OF NEW ORLEANS New Orleans, La.-An important colored social and community center to be established here shortly by the Presbyteria of New Orleans and by Uriah I. D. Moones, for ninety years pastor of one of the cities holding Southern Presbyterian churches, has resigned his pastorate and accepted a call to head the new enterprise. Petition Asks Removal Of Bishop A.J. Carey Chicago, IL 230 men and women members of the A.M.F. Church live in the 4th Episcopal District, where I signed a petition denouncing that Bishop W. L Carey the imbecile because of having been indicted for the alleged acceptance of jobs as City Civil Service Commissioner. The protecting petition declares that the "matter has brought our church in Chicago and the Nation into a shameful notoriety and is trapped by destroying its influence in this town. Chicago is severely indicted as having had an urge of bribery,ombling size and murder scarcely repalled in the history of any city, and according to reports the pledging of civil service positions has been done in a wholesale manner." Declaring that the indictment of Bishop Carey was not the result of the grievance of one individual, the petition asserts that a "favorable verdict would not have the effect of hanging the minds of the people but vindicating him from this charge in the opinion of the church membership." The protest and petition is addressed to Rt. Rev. S. Blanton Parks, senior bishop of the M. M. I., Church Oakland, Cal., appealing to the General Church to relieve the district of Bishop Carey's rule. 一 من reason or other the personal idea here is that Mr. Rittenhouse has been more liberal minded than either of his predecessors. This is said because of his official attitude in one particular matter. Reference is to the time of the birth of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters. It was shortly after he had assumed charge of the New York district that this organization came into existence. It was a time of the war in Europe. The organization leaders were executed Pallmil superintendents got excited, the porters became excited. But though all the excitement, which followed the sixty-year old veteran was one of the few superintendents to keep his head. While some of these district supervisors were discharging every porter who gave the least intimation that he thought the movement would be beneficial to the porters, the New York superintendent simply told his men that he wanted them to attend to their work and leave their unionism off while on the job. True, some were fired by him, too. But these, it as said, neglected their work to promote the union. On the other hand, I have known porters whose discharged was ordered by Chicago, but through Mr. Rittenhouse's influence were ordered in the service. Men who really could afford to lost their jobs at their age in life. Maybe it was because of his own advancing years that he was so sympathetic in his dealings with old employees. Yet, I have heard a story of this same liberal feeling even when he was in the first flush of manhood. It was a sort of coincidence that the late George Sylvester who later became one of Pullman star porters, was the subject of the story. The Pullman people had just taken over the Wagner Car Company, and Sylvester was a Wagner man. He was unming between New York and some station in the Adirondack Mountains Travel up that way was meagre in those days, and the porters did pretty much as they pleased after leaving the main line, which was at Utica. This night George was in the smoke of his car with a big, long car in his mouth, which made the smoking room look like a men's stag in progress. One hand he was shining the shoes of the few passengers that he had, while with the other he would finger the endless cheerot, a flagrant violation of Pullman rules. Without warning a man, who George had never seen before, pulled the smoking room curtain aside and said: "Good evening, porter, what is your name?" "George Sylvester, sir," the porter answered. 'Well, porter, I am Mr Ratten house, Pulliam inspector.' noise, a lilian inspector of work, a forge, a forge, know I haven't any job now In after years he and George laughed many times over the incident As the boys say, he gave George a break Now, all the foregoing has been said to say this. Mr Rittenhouse is bidding adieu to the New York district. He has recently been appointed to the position of assistant manager of the Pullman interests on the Pacific Coast, the position held by the late Frank Woods. He leaves for the Coast this week With his leaving the New York district will lose a cool but compassionate boss, an efficient and loyal Pullmanite, but above all a gentleman. Mott Haven Yard News For once the Stove Pipe Committee was not in on the latest news. The scoop came by way of the downtown office, and not through the regular channels. The committee didn't even know that Assistant Manager P. T. Ryan of Chicago is to take Mr. Rittenhouse's place in New York. Not to be left out entirely, however, of the recent happenings the committee is asking what is to become of Assistant Superintendent D. P. Soudder? At the same time it is saying, he will do what he has always done, follow—Mr. Rittenhouse. Although not any too handsome before but withal one of the most amenable men to be found between 145th street and Mott Haven Yards "Pink" Darden is out and around again bereft of one of his eyes. The fact that he is minus an anod doesn't seem to disturb the wonderful optimism of the "Pink". The preper was extracted at the Opthalamine Hospital. And so "Uncle Tom" Phillips has shaken the dust of Albany from his feet after all these many years. Now, what do you think of that? According to his old friend and landlord, Joe Price, the social arbiter of the Capital City's Negro residents, prohibition made Albany no longer attractive to his buddy. Tom will make his future home with his sister at 1846 North 22nd street, Philadelphia. That wise: Pullman mentor, at Sunnyside Yards, Instructor Reid, wants to find 1000 porters who can "smile at anything". That's a big order, Brother Reid, but this correspondent thinks he can help you out. Here is his suggestion: Just evail on the Fullman Company to pay all extra porters for reporting. If that, as done you will easily get your quota of smiling porters, even though the recruiting will most likely have to be done in both districts. Bye the way, while speaking of Sunnyside, baseball comes across my mind. Since last summer baseball always had an unpleasant way of coming to mind when thinking of our sister district. Manager Huster had better begin to get his team line up for the coming season for Manager Reid of P.T. is still ranking from last year's defeat. But then, "Handsome Charlie" (he was actually called, that recently) is quite busy with other matters these days. After the social season, perhaps, he will be in better humor to talk baseball. There is one thing that is always disconcerting about having a new superintendent come in. You never know how clean he will sweep. Penn Terminal Notes By J. T.

(FILL IN COUPON) Colored citizens of Plainfield, Westfield, Hackensack, Trenton and other cities are strongly in favor of Senator Prelinghufsen's campaign and it is reported that sentiment is rapidly growing among them for his support. The Senator has always been a strong friend to the race, and has always worked to advance its interests. He was a strong supporter of legislation in behalf of Bordentown Institute, and has done much to advance education among Negroes in the Pee Dee section of South Carolina where he owns a large plantation. Not only did he establish schools and teachers in his own vicinity, but he aided in securing teachers in other sections where they were needed. He has always been deeply interested in Tuskegee Institute. Backed Dr. Hood. He urged the naming of the Rev Dr. Solomon Porter Hood as Minister to Libertay No appeal for charity for either black or white goes unheeded, and his philanthropies have covered a wide and varied field. In a speech recently before the Women's League at Mt. Holly, he urged more activity in politics by the women. He declared that his platform for election to the Senate has one main plank, "A Square Deal for Everybody." He cited the fact that he stands for honest, representative government, and is a standard hearer for the working man and woman. In another address before the Newark Athletic Club, Senator Frelinghuysen paid particular attention to the economic danger which lays in the present high rate of taxes. He declared that some industries have left the state, and unmany home-owners have closed their closures' and that "any suggestion of economy or of checking the mad scrambling for the taxpayers' money immediately seems to be frustrated." The Present Situation. In a brief summary, he declares that some of the causes which have created the present situation are "(1) Owing to the tremendous resources of the State and the increase of taxable values, we have neglected to protect ourselves by investigating the need of certain appropriations, the overhead cost, administration and the carrying charges of new agencies create. This applies to some municipalities as well as to the State. "(2) The desire of certain localities in the State to obtain special benefits regardless of their welfare necessity or cost, at the expense of the whole body of taxpayers. "(3) The enactment of pet measures and the lack of courage of the party of leaders to oppose pork barrel projects. "(4) The lack of check or restraint on departments and bureaucats in their desire to expand, which places a burden on State resources that find the Appropriation bill at the end of the year far in excess of the original estimates. (5) The lack of an official conscience to recognize that money expended belong to the people and another whose nurse is inexplicable. Anxious To Help. Continuing, he said: "Where is the remedy?" I am on- THE NEW YORKER Food for Millions NEW YORK CITY consumes $4,000,000 worth of food daily. Perishable products received by rail alone at the Port of New York, for local use, approximate 14,000 tons each day. Here also is the nation's chief stilling center. Endless processions of food can be made by land and water to and from its terminal factories and markets. To maintain a steady flow, to prevent a glut or a scarcity, to losees, there must be constant change of information. Along all the pathways from source to consumer, the telephone plays an indispensable part in the regular, rapid and economical distribution of food for millions.

Officials of Dunbar National Bank Explain Why Roscoe Conkling Bruce Was Not Named Again Bank Director When it became known following the annual meeting of the board of directors of the Dunbar National Bank, that Roscoe Conkling Bruce, resident manager of the Paul Laurence Dunbar Garden Apartments, had not been named again as one of the bank directors, much speculation was rife as to the reason. Rumore of all sorts were circulated, it even being stated that he would be ousted from his position as manager of the apartments, both the bank and the apartment building being John D. Rockefeller Jr. developments. It was immediately denied by the Racefeller interests that Mr. Bruce would be removed from the managership of the apartments, but in spite of the denial, the rumors continued to circulate and to gain credence in some parts. Had Sold His Stock. To set at rest these rumors, and to put the facts in the case before the public, Charles O Heydt of 20 Broadway, Mr. Rockefeller's personal representative has released a statement giving explanation as to why Mr. Bruce was not retained on the board of directors, showing that it was entirely voluntary on part of Mr Bruce, following upon his action in disposing of forty shares of bank stock, which quality him to membership in order to satisfy a claim of $3,000 which had been awarded a claimant in a suit for money alleged to have been loaned him before he became connected with either the apartments of the bank Mr. Heydt'a Statement. The statement issued by Mr. Heydj reads in full as follows "A claim against Roscoe Conkling Bruce for over four thousand dollars on account of money alleged to have been loaned prior to his connection with Paul Laurence Dunbar Apartments, Inc., as resident manager, and with the Dunbar National Bank as director, was heard by mutual consent before a special board of arbitrators under auspices of the American Arbitration Association. This claim Mr. Bruce contested on account of the money he had never received from the claimant in question from the claimant either in character of loans or in that of gifts. But, the arbitrators determined the case in favor of the claimant by making an award of three instead of four thousand dollars "I immediately Mr. Bruce sought to appeal but, no appeal being practicable in view of the submittal agreement, the laws, and the decisions of our Courts regarding such matters, he abandoned the idea upon the advice of counsel and the judge, abiding citizen to make arrangements to pay the award in skill and without delay.

"In order to do this, he joued to necessary to sell the forty shares of Dunbar, National Bank stock which he owned and which he was required to hold out encumbrance in order to quality and maintain his qualification as director of the bank. He did not hesitate for one moment to take this action, even though he was well aware that under the law he thereby automatically terminated his directorship. "That is to say, Mr. Bruce was not in any sense "dropped" from the directorate by the action of others. He himself terminated his directorship by his own act, impressively and easily and promptly and in full award by a quasi-judicial tribunal. A law-abiding citizen, he felt he had no alternative. "Now, whenever Mr Bruce acquires torts more shares of Dunbar National Bank stock, he will thereby render himself eligible for re-election to the directorate by the stockholders of the institution.
