White Insurance Companies Have Long Practiced Discrimination In Policies Issued Colored and White
Metropolitan Life Has Not Just Started With holding Class A Policies From Negro; Statement Shows Same True With 48 Others
By Lucien H. White
The Metropolitan Life the majority of the others always made a difference issued to colored and white and the recent order at Ecker, the Metropolitan's in The Age last week, is nice, The Age is informed dent manager of the Newtory Life Insurance Co. the strong Negro insuredly in New York City.
The Metropolitan Life Insurance Co., as well as the majority of the other insurance companies, has always made a difference in the classes of policies issued to colored and white applicants for insurance, and the recent order attributed to Frederick H. Ecker, the Metropolitan's new president, in a story in The Age last week, is not particularly a new policy, The Age is informed by Lemuel L. Foster, resident manager of the New York office of the Victory Life Insurance Co. of Chicago, the only one the strong Negro insurance bodies operating di-
While a new Negroes have been able to obtain Class A policies, that ordinary full life, the instances are rare and many who think they have this policy are really holding intermediate or Class C policies, limited to the endowment plan as a rule. The Metropolitan has been limiting Negro risks to a 25-year endowment, but recently there has been added a new endowment policy enacting at 85 years.
All Negroes In One Class.
It is explained that the white companies base their attitude on that they allege to be the high rate that obtains among Negroes, together with the necessarily neglected living conditions. In this connection, attention is called to the fact that the companies, in arriving at this conclusion, are no need to the fact that thousands of Negroes are entirely removed from these hindering conditions, and are living under as favorable conditions as any white ones. The companies simply put Negroes in one class.
Taking the Metropolitan Life as an example, it is pointed out that the ordinary straight life policy is only issued on a basis of $5,000, and the various endowment policies are on a $1,000 basis. It is alleged that many of the agents, in writing policies for Negro risks, do not explain these facts, allowing their clients to believe that they are getting the highest grade policy issued by the company. It is reported that the same plan is followed by the New York Life and other strong companies in the East.
Want White Agents Only.
Some of the agents for white companies, having contacts with a hired clientele, are offered applicants for insurance from Negroes which they know will not be handled by their companies. Even though some of them may be canceled enough to tell this to the applicants, there are cases where the appropriate agents insist on having a white agent handle the application, even if the business has to go to a colored company. In certain such instances, the white agent has approached the Victory Mangers Mr. Joster in New York, and Mr. Parons in Brooklyn, asking for a contract by which the agent can handle the business with them.
But realizing that the Negro company's regular agents must be selected, these requests have not been granted. In each case a counsellor proposition was made to the effect that the company would handle the business through its own wife and agents, simply allowing the white agent a reasonable commission for having originated the business.

Hoover and Haiti Accept Plan For Provisional Rule Borno Agrees To Plan, But Later Tries To Break Promise
Hinche, Haiti—President Hoover's investigating committee, stopping here for the first night on their trip through nland Haiti, announced on Monday, March 10, that the President had approved their plan for a provisional Government in Haiti. The plan also has been approved personally by President Louis Borno. Though the commission's formal statement does not mention the fact it is known that the plan includes the ultimate replacement of the American Military High Commissioner, Irig. Gen. John H. Russell, by a civilian Minister of the Diplomatic Service after negotiations for a new treaty to replace the present one have been completed. President Hoover's approval of the plan was received here yesterday, and it is believed that his assent has solved the Haitian problem.
President Borno Back Tracks.
Cape Haitien, Haiti—The Hoover Investigating Committee, learning by telephone that President Louis Borno was attempting to break his promise of adherence to the commission's plan for a provisional Government and legislative elections, telephoned to Port-au-Prince warning the President to keep his word.
"The Commission told him that he must take all the consequences, political and personal, if he refused.
The Commissioners said they were prepared to issue an absolute ultimatum if a serious situation developed at Port-au-Prince.
"The commission is here in Haiti to give the people back their government. We don't propose to have President Borno interfere, with these plans," their statement said
Zemar Long Wins Acquittal On Charge First Degree Murder
A plea of self defense won an acquittal for Zemar Long, 41 years of age, who was charged with the murder of Frank Milton of 250 West 144th street, following an altercation in the hallway of Long's home on September 7 last. The trial was held before Judge Allen in the Court of General Sessions on February 24. According to Long and several witnesses of the shooting, Milton drew a knife and attempted to stab Long. The latter, fearing for his life, pulled his pistol and fired a bullet through Milton's neck, killing him instantly. Long then escaped from the premises, but gave himself up to Detective Robinson three days later.
Patrolman Allen J. Renton, George Binnum, John Williams, Earl Davis, Ray Wilson and Charlie Jones were among the witnesses for the state, while Kitty Stewart and John Williams, eye witnesses of the tragedy, for the defendant, Mr Long also made a good witness for himself.

Assemblyman Perkins Emergency Rent Bill Passes The Assembly
(Telegram to The Age.)
Albany, N. Y.-The Emergency Rent Bill, introduced by Assemblyman Lamar Perkins of the 21st New York City District, providing for a six months stay of the Emergency rent Law in New York City, unanimously passed the Assembly Monday night, March 10. Mr. Perkins is confident the bill will pass the Senate.
According to Mr. Perkins there is still an acute shortage of low rent apartment in New York City, especially in the Harlem section.
MUNICIPAL COURT BILL BY RIVERS IS REPORTED OUT Assembly Is To Act During Week of March 10; Expected To Pass
Albany, N. Y.—Bill No. 898 introduced by Assemblyman Rivers in the Assembly, providing for a new Municipal Court District, has been reported out from the Codes Committee. It will be on for final passage by the Assembly during the week of March 10. It differs from the preceding bills introduced, both as to boundary lines, and as to the arrangement of the districts.
It makes the east side of the present Seventh District the Tenth Municipal Court District, whereas the former bills made that portion the Seventh Municipal Court District. The west side of the present Seventh, under the provisions of this bill, will be the Seventh Municipal Court District
New District Court Boundaries
The judges who are now incumbent in office in the present Seventh District will remain as judges of the new Seventh District as created by this act. Two new judges will be elected next fall to serve in the Tenth Municipal Court District.
The boundaries of this Tenth Municipal Court District will be 155th street on the North, 110th street on the South, and Fifth avenue on the East. The westerly boundary will start at St. Nicholas avenue and 155th street and go down to 128th street, west on 128th street to Convent avenue, south on Convent avenue, south on Morningside avenue to 110th street. This will make the Morningside avenue park and the St. Nicholas avenue park the western boundary of this new district.
New Court Much Needed.
The new district is much needed because the present Seventh Municipal Court District is almost twice as large as any other Municipal Court District in the Borough of Manhattan. In this district there were, according to the 1925 census, 459,191 people and there are but three judges, whereas in the Ninth Municipal District there were 89,869 people and four judges The Municipal Court District next nearest in population statistics to the Seventh Municipal District is the Second District, which has 353,484 people and has five judges. The necessity for this new district can be easily seen from these figures.
A bill creating an additional court district in Harlem has been passed by both houses during the years of 1925, 1926, 1927 and 1928 and 1929, but in each case has been vetoed by the Governor. The bill of Assemblyman Rivers will probably pass both houses and a hearing before the Governor will be arranged at which a large delegation from Harlem to speak in favor of the bill will be expected
HIT AND RUN DRIVER KILLS POLICEMAN
While trying to stop an automobile being driven in a reckless manner, south on St Nicholas avenue, Patrolman Joseph J. Scott, 28 years old of the 32nd Precinct, West 135th street police station, was struck and killed early Tuesday morning, March 11.
According to eyewitnesses, the policeman tried to stop the automobile at the corner of St Nicholas avenue and 135th street when he was struck and dragged by a driver who failed to stop.
Patrolman Scott was rushed to the Harlem Hospital where he was pronounced dead by Dr. Fuggazi. A wide alarm has been broadcast for the hit and run driver.

MANY NEGROES MOURN DEATH OF EX-PRESIDENT W. H. TAFT
---
The passing of the twenty-seventh President of the United States and its tenth Chief Justice, Howard William Taft, at his home in Washington on Saturday evening, March 8, will be keenly felt by many persons of color who came in contact with Mr. Taft.
Mr. Taft spent 49 years of his life in public service as judge of the Superior Court of Ohio, as Solicitor General of the United States, as Governor General of the Philipsburg, Secretary of Wir under President Roosevelt, then President and finally Chief Justice Throughout his long career he exhibited a commendable liberalism toward the race question in America.
He was graduated from Yale University in the class of 1878 with the late Hollis Burke Prue, who after he became principal of Hampston Institute, induced Mr. Taft to accept the position of chairman of the board of trustees of that institu-
ANGRY AMERICAN CRITICIZES THE ACTION OF WHITE Kissing of Haitian Woman's Hand As "Cheap Bumptiousness"
One of the stories coming from 'Port au Prince, Haiti, concerning the arrival of President Hoover's Haitian Commission in that capital, tells of the act of William Allen White of Imperia Kan, a member of the Commission, who, while standing at the gate of his hotel, was saluted by an aged colored woman, one of a parade of Haitian women who stopped up front of him and pleaded, "Please, Commission, deliver us!" Mr. White is reported to have responded to her how by clasping her hand, kissing it, and howing in return. A rear of cheers greeted the action, while cries rang out "Long live the Commission!" and "Long live President Hoover."
One of the American reactions to this courtesy on the part of Mr White is seen in a letter to the editor of New York Herald Tribune, signed by one "Melancholy Jacques," who writes in part as follows: "Although I am pretty well in

tution. He was also actively interested in other educational movements on behalf of the Negro. A story in The Age last week told of his politics in appointing Negroes to office when President and it is claimed for him that he appointed more Negroes to political office than any other President.
The body of the former President and erstwhile Chief Justice lay in state in the Capitol from 9 a.m. until noon on Tuesday. Burial followed at the National Cemetery, Arlington—the bivouac of the heroic dead of the Republic. An honor guard of four soldiers, two sailors and two marines followed the flag-draped casket on a caisson from the Capitol to the All Souls Untarian Church where the final rites were held. The President, the Vice President, the Speaker of the House, the Cabinet, the surviving members of the Taft cabinet and the Diplomatic Corps were all present.
tured by his time to the shocking and undignified acts committed by some Americans in foreign trade. I must say that the conduct of Mr. William Allen White in Haiti takes every prize and sets a new high for cheap and sentimental humptiousness.
"Mr. White is a member of President Hoover's commission which has gone to Haiti to find out how soon we may end the occupation there—a question which needless to say, will not be determined by actual conditions in Haiti, but by political exigencies at home.
"A parade was in progress and Mr. White was standing watching it when an old woman (Negro, of course, like all the Haitians) passed him and said 'Please, Commissioner, deliver us.' What did Mr. White do? He took her land, bowed over it and kissed it.
"What justification he can give for such an act is beyond comprehension. He could have been polite without stooping to such measures. He could have smilingly replied, 'I will take your request under admiration.' He certainly should not have done something which will lower American prestige in Haiti and in other countries where American prestige must be maintained.
"Mr White will probably try to justify his action on the grounds that he wanted to make a favorable impression on the public opinion of Haiti.
"The spectacle of an American political appointee trying to make capital for himself by indirect aspersions on American marines is always a distasteful one, whether or not it is accompanied by Mr White's eccentric flourishes."
White Policeman Held For Grand Jury For Shooting of Student
Patrolman Walter Lowe, white policeman, was held for the Grand Jury in the First District Magistrates Court of Brooklyn, Monday, when he appeared before Magistrate Jacob Elperin on charges growing out of his shooting Ralph Baker, Lincoln University student in an elevator station last October. The case is expected to be presented to the Grand Jury in a fortnight, according to advices from the District Attorney's office, received by the N. A. A. C. P.
Attorney William T. Andrews, special legal assistant of the N. A. A. C. P., was present in court representing Ralph Baker.
JAMES E. SADLER HELD IN $3,000 FOR EMBEZZLEMENT Used $3,070 Belonging To B. & L. Association In Montclair, N. J.
According to the Evening News of Newark, N. J., James E. Sadler of 31 Montague place, Montclair, well known in political, civic and social circles in New Jersey and New York City, was arrested Monday, March 3, charged with having embezzled $1,070,88 from the Golden Rod Building and Loan Association, with offices at 8 Mission street, Montclair, of which he was the former secretary.
The arrest was made at instance of Charles Aibrans of the building and loan department of the State Department of Banking and Insurance, and when Sadler was arranged before Justice of the Peace J. H. E. Scotland at the Hall of Records, Newark, he was held in $3,000 bail. Sadler is charged with having withheld out deposits and converted them to his own use. The arrest was made by Prosecutor's Detectives Crooke and Mayer, and Lieutenant Hargan of the Prosecutor's office said that a letter was found in Sadler's pocket, written a week ago, addressed to a lawyer, in which he confessed to the embezzlement and hoped the lawyer would "find some way to work out the load." Another letter, said to be in possession of officials of the Golden Rod Association held a confession, with the added statement that "when this letter reaches you I will be in the Great Beyond."
Sadler's manipulations, it is' said, had been going on for some four or five years. He is bonded in the sum of $5,000, and the Association is amply protected. Sadler is employed at the Montclair Bureau of Water Supply.
John Hendy Held For Grand Jury On Daughter's Charge
John Hendy Held For Grand Jury On Daughter's Charge
A preliminary hearing was held Tuesday morning before Magistrate Ford in the case of John Hendry of 602 St. Nicholas avenue, who is alleged to have raped his own daughter, Mr Hendy repudiated his alleged confession of the charge and his attorney Richard E. Carey moved to dismiss on grounds that it was the uncorroborated testimony of the girl. His motion was denied when the officer from the Children's Society, Thomas G. Kelly, told of the circumstances under which Mr Hendy was arrested. Both Mr. Kelly and another officer from the Children's Society testified that the prisoner admitted the crime, and that examination at the hospital showed the girl to be in a pregnant condition.
The girl was placed on the stand and repeated the story she had told the policemen. She said that she was fourteen years old and the alleged relationship with her father began last October and continued until February 8 of this year. Although the girl's mother was present in court the district attorney did not consider it necessary to call her and the person was ordered held under $5,000 bail to await the action of the Grand jury.
Points To Record of Thirty-Five Years Public Service and Challenges Any Man To Put Finger Upon Act or Utterance of Disloyalty
The Rev. Dr. Henry Hugh Proctor, pastor of Nazarene Congregational Church, Grand avenue and Lefferts place, Brooklyn, used as the subject of his sermon on Sunday morning, March 9, "The Persecution of the Church," and took occasion eo make reply to his fellow ministers who had strongly criticized him because of certain statements contained in an interview printed in the Brooklyn Daily Times on March 1.
Brooklyn Citizens Continue Protests On Rev. Proctor's Story; Pastors Denounce Article From Pulpits Mammoth Meeting To Be Held At Kismet Temple With Bishops, Clergy, Doctors, Civic and Fraternal Leaders As Speakers
Charging that the article will give rise to willful segregation of our children in our public schools and our people in theatres and other public places, the Rev. Dr. Thomas S. Harten, pastor of Holy Trinity Baptist Church, DeKalb avenue, near Franklin, Brooklyn, made a vehement protest from his pulpit Sunday when he addressed members of his congregation on the interview given a Brooklyn newspaper by the Rev. Henry Hugh Proctor, pastor of Nazarene Congregational Church.
The story of the criticisms as printed in The Age of March 8 carried a set of resolutions which had been adopted at a mass meeting held at the Holy Trinity Baptist Church, the Rev. Thomas E. Harten, pastor, severely expropriating Dr. Proctor for the utterances attributed to him by the Times' reporter, and contained also an extract from a sermon preached on March 2 by the Rev Dr. George Frazer Miller, rector of St. Augustine P. E. Church, in which the minister also took Dr. Proctor to task.
Church Is Crowded.
Nazarete Church was crowded on Sunday morning with people who came from all sections of Brooklyn and Greater New York, who listened with keen interest to the pastor's defense of his utterance Incidentally, Dr Proctor denied authorship of the phrase which formed the real basis for the criticism, in which he was quoted as saying that the Negro carried crime and disease into homes of the white people where they are employed in domestic service, declaring that the Times' reporter would hear him out in that respect.
One of the interesting features of the morning service was the reception into church membership of Buddy Nixon, an elevator operator.

Following the action of the committee of citizens who last week drew up a resolution denouncing the story, Rev Harten said that it was unfortunate for Rev, Proctor to make such a blunder and told how he had called up Rev. Proctor by telephone to question him concerning the article. He said that Rev. Proctor had defended himself by saying that he had been misquoted.
Other Ministers Speak:

It is a full and comprehensive article intended to be of service to our people,

In a meeting Monday of the Colored Baptist Ministers Conference of New York and vicinity, of which the Rev Porter Phillips is president, Rev Proctor's article was discussed and condemned as being dangerous at this time, in that it might throw domestics and other laborers out of work. They appointed a committee to draw up a resolution of condemnation.

ALPHA PHI ALPHA FRAT
PRESENTS "A NIGHT
IN EGYPT
Tuesday evening, March 4, Alpha Phi Alpha paid homage to its emblem the Sphinx. The most colorful dance in Alpha's history unfolded itself in panoramic splendor at the Renaissance Casino. The moment one was within the portals of the Casino, the mystic feeling of Egypt penetrated the atmosphere. Egyptian effects dented, dulled and hummed were appropriate intertwined. The ooze of the land of Anthony and Cleopatra was one of dreamy ecstasy and merriment, amused soft, kaleidoscopic lights and the blitting strains of beautiful music.
Th8 decorations were in charge of one of the members, John L. Wilson, a graduate in architecture from Columbia University. Throughout the evening the lighting effects were in the hands of master electricians. The sacred Searab formed an imposing background at the front of the stage. Below this stood the Sphinx and surmounting both of these was the insignia of the fraternity which included multi-colored lights like a beacon. The Casino was packed to capacity. Guests came from far and wide; Boston, Chicago, Philadelphia New Orleans, Washington, Baltimore, Pittsburgh and the northern parts of New Jersey. At 1:30 p.m. after the members had paid tribute to their Fraternity by singing the Alpha Phi Alpha
Anthem, came the treat and climax of the evening. A mummy case was drawn to the middle of the floor by all the members. Out of this case came a Broadway star, Miss Louise Cook, who did an Egyptian ballet dance to the honor of the Mighty Sphinx. The committee in charge of the affair consisted of A. Maurice Moore, chairman of King L. Wesley associate John L. Wesley, Richard L. Baltimore, jr., Roland Johnson, Robert Anthony and Jesse L. Casminski.

GRAND MASTER SMITH VIS
ITS LONG LODGE
On Saturday evening, March 8, the Most Worshipful Grand Master John Smith and suite, of the Most Worshipful King Solomon Grand Lodge, Ancient, Free and Accepted Masons of the State of New York, made an official visit to Ionic Lodge No. 19, A. F. and M. in the Bronx. The members were out in large numbers, with visiting brothers from various lodges.
Jone was round to be in artery good condition being one of the biggest in the State. The oft repeated admotion of the grand master, during the past years, that a high standard must be maintained in the collar of men who are accepted as candidates, is bearing fruit, by the outstanding ability in them. The lectures and instructions given were very interesting; every one listened with eyes and cars opened. His patience and coolness while ruling are some of his fine virtues and while he is just, he is firm in his decisions. It has been clearly demonstrated that there was no mistake made in re-electing him as grand master of Ancient Craft Masons.
During the month of May he will visit the Lodges on Long Island, Staten Island Poughkeepsie, Albany, Schenectady and Buffalo, New York.

ECONOMY PLAN FOR SWIMMING AT 137TH ST. YW Industrial Girls Give Program at Banquet At Central Branch
A CONFIDENTIAL CHAT:
Now, this really is good news! It is not this time the more the merrier, but the more the cheaper! Now you like to swim and it costs a quarter to come in and splash. A quarter is not so much, but neither does it grow on a tree, and the quarters have a way of adding up. Here is the way to get around this problem. Bring some friends along, share the joy of splashing, have more skillability and spend less money. This is the way it goes: If you come in twos, you pay twenty cents; if you come in threes, you pay fifteen cents; if you come in fives, you pay a dime, and in tens, only a nickel. This is the new plan for I', E. swimming. P. E. stands for Physical Ed. you know!
MORE CONFIDENCES:
If you are a junior P. E. swimmer, having not yet reached the mature age of eighteen, you can get some splashes, and lessons, too free. All you have to do is join the "Y" and get a medical exam, then come on Wednesday afternoons, armed with your membership card.
The city-wide industrial banquet held at Central Riainch on March 7 was jolly and delightful. Nearly two hundred girls, representing industrial departments in all the branches in the city, attended.

Hattie E. Koffie and Virginia Jackson.

me racy. In reply to this change
I point to a second of public service
of 35 years and defy any man-to-
place his finger upon-one act or
utterance that is disloyal to my people.
On the contrary, I have spoken
in every state of the Union, and
beyond the seas, as a champion of
the rights of my people.
"Another is that I am against the
working people. In reply to this
charge I would say: that I am a
working man myself, and sprung
from the working people. My father
was a carpenter and my mother a
cook. Scarcely a day passes that
we do not seek jobs in our church
office for working people. Christ
himself was a working man, and I
like to touch the hand of a man
that has corns on it like those of
Christ.
Not Against Newcomers.
"Another false charge - is that I am against the newcomers' of our race in our community. In reply to this I would say that I am one myself, and I could hardly be against mysels. On the other hand I have the highest regard for those who are coming into our midst. There are no better members of our church than some of these. Note how many of them have been promoted to official position in our church. As a matter of fact, of some of you have almost been made feelous by my high praise of our West Indian contingent. And we are welcome to our people today. Right now the hero who saved over forty people recently in a great fire in Brooklyn. He is a newscomer from New England.
'Still another false ininstination is that I have held up my people to scorn as a criminal race. In reply, I have held on hundreds of platforms in America that the colored race has the cleanest record from crime of any race in history. The Jewish race gave us its ludas Decariot; the Roman race its Nero; the Saxon race its Beneficent; the Arnold race its Beneficent; one great black criminal in history. He does not exist. I have made this challenge time and again, and none has been able to refute the fact that the blackest hand in nature is the whitest hand in history.
Denies Crime Statement
"What, then, have I been trying to do that caused this tempest in a tenpott? It is the lot of public men to be misquoted and misinterpreted Of course, I did not say that my people were carriers of disease and crime, as Mr. Webster affirms and will state in The Times. My people, as a nation, would make them such. Certainly, I was not fighting my people; I was only fighting 'for them, and will do so until I die.
"I believe it is the plan of God to put a church in every community on earth, and that it is this plan for each church to save its own community. I believe that it is the divine plan for this church to save its immediate community. Instead of having an ambulance at the bottom of the precipice to pick up the wounded, I believe in building a fence at the top to prevent the falling over." I am endeavoring, to put my church in such a position that it can be a conserving force in the community. I see the secret designs of the underworld plotting to deserate this community. I want to preserve it, and make it the finest and cleanest community of our people anywhere in the world.
Organized Vice Movement
"To this end I am appealing to the better element of both races to co-operate in transforming the bad of both races into good people. As a matter of fact, the vice of this man is manned chiefly by whites, and many of our people are used as tools. In the article reporting the interview in question this was expressly stated. This organized movement for vice preys upon the young, the unsuspecting and the immature. It is the work of the church that would be a colony of heaven to cleanse this environment, and make it helpful and stimulating for our youth. Any opposition to this movement would put my opponents on the side of the forces of the undeworld.
"This appeal has brought forth a fine response from men and women of both races. In making this appeal not a single unworthy argument has been made. Our literature is open for inspection to all. He who runs may read. When this appeal has been fully successful there will be set up in the heart of the Borough an institution of which the race will be proud throughout the country, and will stand to serve humanity long after the present actors have gone to die." I entertain for each one of my certies the most kindly feeling, and not a single word of bitterness shall escape my lips" during this whole controversy. I judge no man's motives, and none can justly impugn mine. That is a matter for divine judgment as we stand in the presence of Him before whom all men's hearts are laid bare.
However, I have set my face like a flint, and no amount of opposition shall cause me to vary one hair's breadth from the course of service I have marked out to save our community to the highest and the best. I will fight no man, but I will fight the speakeasy, the evil resort. Sunday night cabaret and kindred evils until hell itself freez.

This community must be preserved and handed down for our future. This task is summon all good men, regardless of race, color or creed."
Brooklyn Citizens Are Continuing To Protest Dr. Proctor's Statement
(Continued from Page One)
That other religious, fraternal and civic bodies are active on the matter is evidenced by the fact that the Brooklyn Lodge of Elks, No. 32, have appointed a committee to investigate the charges made in the article. And the Interdenominational Ministers Alliance of Brooklyn, the Rev. W. C. Brown' president, holding their meeting Wednesday, have signified their intention of thoroughly sifting the matter. It is expected that Rev. Procter will be present.
Medicos Also Protest.
The Eastern Baptist Association which comprises all the Baptist ministers and churches of Brooklyn and Long Island, when they hold their meeting at the Mt Lebanon Baptist Church on Thursday evening, March 13, have signified this intention of going on record as confirming the article. Vigorous deficiencies were also made by the Rev. Porter Phillips pastor of the Brown Memorial Baptist Church president of the New York Colleges Conference, moderator of the Eastern Baptist Association. Members of the Provident Dental and Medical Association were also heard denouncing the article and it is expected that the soo will go on record protesting the article.
But the largest protest will made Tuesday evening March, at the Kismet Temple, Herki street, near Nostar avenue, which time Brooklynites in walks of life and their representatives will be present. Among the who will appear are prompt bishops representing two denominations, fraternal leaders, professors and business men and ministers several denominations. At this in there will also appear several who representative citizens whose voice on the race question will be illating.

dian company. Another Candida company is listed as "each case its merits."
Plans of operation among companies are diversified. Some accept Negroes only on weekly, dustrial life, health and access policies, with a limited risk; other, on loan to the South, on downpayment plans, but not redeemed, a Boston company takes ed amounts at standard rates, a Carolina company issues ordnance and industrial policies at 20 cent additional premium
A District of Columbia comp issues on ordinary form at high premium form, and on industrial. F companies issue only industrial but one company requires a differ policy and rates from whites. O company accepts an endowment in approved locality where environment and sanitary conditions is known to be good "and where there is adequate water enough to insure reasonable amation," and another, in the Sco accepts both ordinary and industrial, but in limited amounts.
An Ohio company accepts nary but not industrial, but poli are issued with extra rating, only Negroes in professions or solicited; most of the others are onlp on the endowment plan; limitations as to amount of pol class of applicant, number of applicants, number of applicants, apply from whites, increased premium or without extended insurance, ble indemnity or total disba clauses.
An Official Document.
The last company listed incorporates the fullest statement as to risk risks. It writes all color risks, but only on 10, 15, 20, 30 year, 10 payment 20-year, and payment 30-year, endowment, itinating plan, maturing not less than age 60. Disability or other insurance benefits are eliminated. No accident features other than color risks. An insertion is required every case. Colored laborers accepted, but only the better of risks."
This summary of the regular as to the insurance of colored plebe by white insurance company is taken from an official document issued by the Life Insurance statistical Service on the North Underwriters' Co., 420 East Street, Cincinnati, O. published several insurance journals sheds a brilliant light upon the criminatory attitude maintained these companies toward Negroes. It should be remembered that summary is taken from condensed instructions given to the agents, explains why, in so many initial colored risks, making application insurance of a certain kind shunted off by the wily agents some other plag not so far faced to the applicant and at a much higher rate.
Many of the policy holders of Metropolitan Life who think they have ordinary life policies are taken, unless their policies pay $5,000 or more; as no other policy holder for less that sum, according to the hook issued by the State Department of Insurance.

REASSURING THE HAITIANS.
That was an unexpected gesture on the part of one of President Hoover's commissioners to Haiti when William Allen White of Emporia, Kansas, in response to the plea for deliverance of an elderly Haitian woman, bowed and kissed her hand; the action was more of a Gallic gesture than what might have been expected from hardboiled American newspaper editor and author of the Middle West. But was a gesture that would appeal to the satin temperament of the people to whom it was addressed, and conveyed more clearly than words the reassurance of good intentions and respectful consideration that it was intended to indicate. Was a favorable omen for the restoration of confidence in the good faith of the American government.
This interesting interlude in the proceedings of the commission which has been steadily pushing its inquiry into conditions in Haiti, was followed by the announcement, through the Associate Press that the commission had recommended to President Hoover that a one-man provisional government take over the administration of affairs on May 11 when the term of President Louis Borno will expire. It was reported that President Borno would acquiesce in this plan and cooperate with his successor, who would be a neutral individual to be picky leaders of the people. The Provisional President would hold office until it became possible to provide for the election of a national legislature. This body, which elected by popular vote, would meet and elect a President for a normal term.
This recommendation is counted up to avert the possibility of violent outbreaks which were threatened in case President Borno sought to retain office or to secure the election of a successor by the Council of State, a body appointed and controlled by the President. A survey of the political situation was reported to show that the recommendation of the commission was acceptable to virtually all the leaders of the groups opposed to the American occupation. The fellow of President Borno were also said to favor it and had given written pledges of support.
The device of naming a provisional president to act during a political emergency is a favorite resort among the Latin-American countries, in order to bridge an interval between sudden change of administration. It was through such device that General Castro first desummed the reins of government in Venezuela, and he did not relinquish them until he was obliged to go abroad to undergo a surgical operation from which trip he would never allowed to return to Venezuela. However, the provisional president is time-honored makeshift and if it serves to avert bloodshed in Haiti, it will have justified its existence.
In the meantime, William Allen White of Kansas is to be congratulated for having the tact and the courage to make an unprecedented gesture of goodwill and courtesy, that could be understood by Haitians despite the difference of language and nationality.

This body, when elected by popular vote, would meet and elect a President for a normal term.
This recommendation is counted upon to avert the possibility of violent outbreaks which were threatened in case President Borno sought to retain office or to secure the election of a successor by the Council of State, a body appointed and controlled by the President. A survey of the political situation was reported to show that the recommendation of the commission was acceptable to virtually all the leaders of the groups opposed to the American occupation. The f followers of President Borno were also said to favor it and had given written pledges of support.
The device of naming a provisional president to act during a political emergency is a favorite resort among the Latin-American countries, in order to bridge over an interval between sudden change of administration. It was through such a device that General Castro first assumed the reins of government in Venezuela, and he did not relinquish them until he was obliged to go abroad to undergo a surgical operation from which trip he was never allowed to return to Venezuela. However, the provisional president is a time-honored makeshift and if it serves to avert bloodshed in Haiti, it will have justified its existence.
In the meantime, William Allen White of Kansas is to be congratulated for having the tact and the courage to make an unprecedented gesture of goodwill and courtesy, that could be understood by all Haitians despite the difference of language and nationality.
A TRIBUTE OR A LIBEL.
In announcing that it had joined many of the leading Southern newspapers well as most of the Northern, in according recognition to the Negro race by capitalizing that term, the New York Times said.
The tendency in typography is generally ward a lessened use of capital letters, reverence for things held sacred by many regard for the fundamental law of the law a respect for the offices of men in high authority, and certain popular and social tradition have resisted this tendency. Have the capitalized distinction, as have national sects and cults, tribes and clans. It there seems reasonable that a people who had o a proud designation such as Ethiopia.
In announcing that it had joined many of the leading Southern newspapers as well as most of the Northern, in according recognition to the Negro race by capitalizing that term, the New York Times said.
The tendency in typography is generally toward a lessened use of capital letters. Yet reverence for things held sacred by many, a regard for the fundamental law of the mind, a respect for the offices of men in high authority, and certain popular and social tradition have resisted this tendency. Jacobs have their capitalized distinction, as have nationalistic sects and cults, tribes and clans. It therefore seems reasonable that a people who had once a proud designation such as Ethiopian, reaching back in the dawn of history, having come up out of slavery to which men of English speech subjected them, should now have such recognition as the liturgy of the name from a lower case into the upper can give them. Major Robert K Moton of Investec, the most representative of the race in America, has written to The Times that his people universally wish to see the word 'Negro' capitalized. It is a little thing mechanically to grant, but it is not a small thing in its implications. Every use of the capital 'N' becomes a tribute to millions who have risen from a low estate into "the brotherhood of the races."
This action is in strange contradistinction to a suit brought against a San Francisco newspaper to recover fifty thousand dollars damages, for inadvertently referring to a saloon, proprietor as "a Portuguese Negro." The counsel for the newspaper seeks to defend the suit by proving that it is not libelous to refer to a man as a Negro, even if the term is misapplied. It is claimed won behalf of the newspaper that if the courts of California hold that the Negro, is the equal of the white man, then there would be no libel involved.
So far as it has been able to discover there are no court decisions, in a Northern State, except, in Ohio where this question has been passed upon. In Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana, South Carolina and Virginia, there are Supreme Court decisions deciding it to be libelous to refer to a white man as a Negro. In North Carolina the District of Columbia and in Ohio, the courts have decided that it is not libelous to refer to a white man as a Negro.
The importance of the case in the California courts as affecting the legal status of the Negro is deemed such as to warrant the matter being taken up by the Legal Committee of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, in order to show the development and achievement of the American Negro.
CREDIT'FOR ACHIEVEMENT.
As an aftermath of any distinct gift for the race made along civic or economic lines, there are usually a host of claims for the credit of achieving the result, although some of them were merely workers during the struggle. This was ridicuously shown after the manning telegraph office in Harlem by color employees, when credit for the innovation was claimed for a paper published in another State.
The latest controversy of this sort is known around the recent appointment of colored doctors to Harlem Hospital, on learning which a letter of Dr. Dubuilch appeared in last week's Age, is credited as claiming credit for that recognition of our physicians, as due to efforts of the National Association for advancement of Colored People. A real contemporary hastened to assure Rubiois that the organization named to part in the fight, and that any attempt to claim the glory would be ridiculed when proceeded to say that the whites in the campaign to remove the bar in the city's hospitals were Ferdinand Q. Morton and an ex-Alderman. It may be granted that as the head of the local Democratic organization in Ham, Mr. Morton was able to exert a more of political influence that helped accomplish the end sought. But the struggle for recognition of our doctors' hospital service had been going on years, and had enlisted the efforts of many different individuals and organization all these agencies played a part in bringing about the result, and no one of them claim the sole credit for the appointments.
It is the same way with many other improvements accomplished in this and other communities. For years perhaps meetings are held and letters written, locating some change of policy or additional improvement. Finally it is granted and every man who ever spoke at one of these meetings or wrote a letter favor the project, is convinced that he also was responsible for its becoming an accomplished fact. He therefore claimed credit for the achievement and is so sure that aggrieved when any other peril agency is accredited with a share in the most changes and improvements of civic nature are brought about by a combination of forces, and often only after a period of time when these forces accumulated a strength which fits brings about the desired action. The best thing to do about it is to rejoice on the final result, and conclude that the glory enough in the accomplishment cover all concerned.

A local contemporary hastened to assure Dr. Dubois that the organization named took no part in the fight-and that any attempt to claim the glory would be ridiculous. It then proceeded to say that the wheelhorses in the campaign to remove the color bar in the city's hospitals were Ferdinand O. Morton and an ex-Alderman.

But this struggle for recognition of our doctors in hospital service had been going on for years, and had enlisted the efforts of many different individuals and organizations. All these agencies played a part in bringing about the result, and no one of them can claim the sole credit for the appointments.

CAPITALIZING DISCONTENT
As many abortive attempts at stirr to the unemployed to take part in demonstrations last week showed, the Commits are taking advantage of every system of dissatisfaction to gain recruits their doctrine.

As many abortive attempts at stirring up the unemployed to take part in demonstrations last week showed, the Communists are taking advantage of every symptom of dissatisfaction to gain recruits to their doctrine. They endeavor to arouse the sentiment of the unemployed against the capitalists and employers, and to set the white collar employees against the wearers of the jumper and the flannel shirt. The proletariat is incited against the middle class and the shopkeepers, who are stigmatized by the term bourgeoisie
Considerable Communistic propaganda has been expended in trying to secure converts among American Negroes, both North and South. To the foreign leaders of the Communists, there appears to be every reason why the Negro should prove an easy convert to their doctrines, which promise relief for present injustices and deprivations which he suffers and offer him a future bright with equal oppor-

had dealt wisely and efficiently with the situation and kept the police well in hand. That
tunity, both political and economic. In any class of Americans has reason for discontent with present conditions, the Communists argue, it should be the Negro.
But despite this subtle propaganda, the recruits to Communism so far made among the darker race in America have been but a few and far between. The late John Reid who died an exile in Russia a year or two ago, made a determined effort to convert the Negroes of the South to the cause of Communism, but gave it up as a bad job, because of some fundamental loyalty to American institutions that made it almost hopeless to convert the black workers to Communism. How long this immunity to the spread of strange doctrines of this sort will last, it is hard to say. But it should inspire the Americans who love their country and wish to preserve its institutions to practice and inculcate the principles of fair play in dealing with the Negro on an economic and political basis. They should decide whether it is better to close the door of opportunity to his economic advancement and drive him to listen to the preaching of strange theories which promise to give him the opportunity lacking; or to open the doors of honest employment to him in every line of labor for which he can qualify.
Discussing the subject of "The Negro' and Prohibition," the Washington Tribune maintained that he has suffered more under the prohibition laws than any other. It continued: In the first place, thousands of Negroes, were put out of employment by the passage of the Eighteenth Amendment. In a declining labor market, these men and women have not been able to find other permanent occupations.
Second, the bootlegging racket has placed large amounts of money into the hands of the most unscrupulous and has thereby added to our crime record. This crime record has been further enlarged through the peonage system in the south. This "bible belt" section, while ostensibly dry, boasts of some of the largest moonshine stills in the country. When the law enforcing officers arrive they are always the first ones arrested. They are taken to protect the white owners of the stills. The most perilous work of bootlegging is always given to the Negro. Prohibition has ruined thousands of Negro homes both directly and indirectly. Bootlegging has always been permitted to flourish in Negro districts both in the north and south. The police officers have always winked at crime in these sections of a city and thereby have caused honest law abiding home owners to suffer a great depreciation on their property investment.
Even in New York City colored mechanics with union cards, skilled laborers, complain of an industrial boycott, which handicaps them in getting steady work. One of this class tells of a specific instance of such discrimination on a job handled by a big construction company, where the colored worker was laid off after working but a few days and not put back, although he reported daily on the job.
Whenever the powers above desire to make a public demonstration of how effectively they are enforcing the law, they first visit the Negro bootleger. The Negro can never have any enthusiasm for the Eighteenth Amendment as long as the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments are completely ignored. The federal and state law officers are every day breaking all of the amendments to the Constitution in order to enforce this one pet measure of the hypocritical Christians in this country and, yet, they will not lift one finger to pass enforcement legislation for the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments.
The insidious propaganda of Communism among colored workers can best be met and defeated by giving them a fair deal in the industrial world. Communism thrives and builds on dissatisfaction and discontent with existing conditions. Make conditions right and Communism will fail to find ready recruits.
While much of this indictment may be true, there ought to be some good results to be credited to prohibition in those sections where it is enforced, if any such are to be found.
COMMUNISTS AND POLICE CLUBS
On Thursday of last week the members of what is called the Workers Party, or the Communists tried their best to provoke riots and violence in several widely separated cities both in this country and in parts of Europe. In New York there was but little excuse for any violent outbreak, as the demonstration that they desired to hold in Union Square, was given the widest latitude of free speech, although vigilantly guarded and held in check by large forces of police under the personal direction of Commissioner Whalen. But the leaders of the meeting were not content with the effect it produced by their most violent speeches and placards, they seemingly wanted to make martyrs of themselves or their followers.
Seeking to ascertain the reasons which prompt married women to work outside the home, a writer in the Houston Texas Freeman asserted:
Accurate statistics are not available, but it is safe to assert that the married women who work because the job needs them are few indeed compared with those who work because they need the job. The economic security of large numbers of homes requires that the wife be both bread-winner and homemaker. An analysis of 20 studies in various parts of the country by as many agencies of the share of wage-earning women in family support shows that of 380,39 women reported upon more than half contributed all their earnings to their families and less than 9 per cent made no contribution at all. Since data on wages are available in some of these reports and so large a per cent of women have some responsibility for the support or others as well as of themselves, it seems fair to assume that a very small proportion fall into the fortunate class at the other extreme which can choose between leisure and congenial work, or between doing housework and other work more to their liking.
Feeling that their diatribes against present political institutions were receiving but indifferent attention, the leaders decided to form a parade of their followers down Broadway to the City Hall, ostensibly to present the plight of the unemployed workers to Mayor Walker and call upon him to relieve the situation by inaugurating work on public improvements. No permit having been applied for or issued for a parade, Commissioner Whalen who had handled the meeting with rare judgment and discretion, forbade such a march, although he offered to take a committee of workers in a motor car to confer with the Mayor. This offer was rejected and the Communists tried to parade despite the opposition of the police, who charged the crowd and clubbed and beat them until they dispersed.
Data on wages of men, rises in the cost of living, unemployment, accidents, illness and other things affecting the earning capacity of husbands have shown plainly that for large numbers of women marriage must mean not economic security for mother and children, but the responsibility for dependents which carries with it the need to make a contribution in money it, addition to the many duties performed in the home.
The 1920 census has given us a graphic picture of changes in our social order which affect the security of our homes. Of over 35 million women, 15 years of age and over, living in the United States in 1920, about $8^{1}$ million or nearly one-fourth of the total number were in gainful employment. Of the latter nearly two million are married. The term "married women" according to the census classification, includes only those women who had a husband living in the home at the time of the taking of the census.
The attack of the police on the crowd was admittedly provoked by the defiance of the leaders in insisting upon a parade. But according to eyewitnesses of the proceedings there was no cause for the brutal clubbing that followed. The line of action laid out by Mayor Walker and Commissioner Whalen had been perfectly executed up to this point. The Communists had been given an opportunity to get all their complaints off their chests and abuse the police and all constituted authority to the limit, without provoking any reaction. But when they tried to march down Broadway, the police retaliated by giving them the clubbing that they had been asking.
A tremendous increase in actual number of married women wage earners occurred during the 30 years from 1890 to 1920.
For these women wage earners who are also mothers of small children, the strain involved is counted unfair for motherhood to bear.
While this may have been very human on the part of the policeman who lost their patience, it was not good discipline nor good judgment Most of this gathering was unarmed and many of them innocent spectators There may even have been some of the genunine unemployed among them, hoping to hear of some method for providing jobs for them. It does not seem necessary to the preservation of order that policemen should beat and club unresisting people of this kind, including women. The net result of such police violence is to make martyrs of the Communists and to create sympathy for those who were so brutally beaten.
Pointing out the inconsistency of the new City Manager of Cleveland, who refused to antagonize suburban officials by urging annexation, the Cleveland Gazette said:
By the same token, the Gazette would ask Mr. Morgan, "Why has he started out by antagonizing the great mass of the 60,000 Afro-Americans in this city by reappointing Dudley S Blossom of Ku Klux Klan activities during the last six years, as welfare director of the city of Cleveland? And this, too, in the face of a united protest upon the part of these same people. The fact that "The Blossom triplets," the "Negro" councilmen, (Payne, George and Bundy), ignored the mandate given them, last fall, when they were elected, and "waved" their personal opposition to Director Blossom.
this point, Commissioner Whalen
some of them got out of control in the later proceedings is to be regretted.
does not excuse the city manager's inexecutable and most insulting point of mention of Blossom as welfare director of the city of Cleveland. The city manager apparently was not and is not concerned when it comes to "antagonizing" practically all of our people of this community, something we will not and cannot soon forget. He and "The Blossom, triplets" (Payne, George and Bundy) have something coming from the Afro-American voters of Cleveland which will not be delayed when the opportunity to pay them arrives, both this and next fall.
Evidently the veteran editor of the Gazette is on the warpath again, with Ku Kluxism in public office as his objective.
The serious nature of the task awaiting President Hoover's commission on Hawaiian education, was emphasized by the Richmond St. Luke Herald in the following terms:
But the difficult task, must not be minimized one fraction of an inch. Here we have a ruling class of Haitians who believe in the old French classical culture for the Negroes of the island. In fact, the latest troubles with our Marines was due to the effort of American Occupation Authorities to force vocational and industrial education upon the Negro students of Haiti. The Marines are seeking the material and economic development of the black people of Haiti. They would hold that the masses of these poor islanders would do a great deal better if they had vocational and industrial training instead of reading the classics of French scholars.
The ruling Haitians are not of that opinion. It is the same educational warfare that raged during the entire lifetime of Dr. Booker T. Washington. Some Negroes believed that vocational training was the salivation of the race. Others, just as honest and emotional, contended that classic education was the only way of salvation of the race. They staked all their lives upon that way out. Dr Moton, now an exponent of industrial education and training as taught by the institution presided over by himself, must strike upon a fine go-between in order to escape the condemnation of the ruling classes of the Negro Republic. He must make himself believe what he probably does not believe. He must, at all odds, keep the respect of the ruling black people of the island. He must watch his steps.
There will probably be an effort to combine the training of the head and the hands in such a way as to serve the best interests of all classes of Haitians.
Deploring the great loss suffered by the South in the death and removal of two of its most eminent liberals, the Norfolk Journal and Guide said:
Two weeks ago death bereft it of Dr. Plato Durah, president of Emory University in Atlanta. Last week Dr. Harry W. Chase resigned from the presidency of the University of North Carolina to take a similar position at the University of Illinois. Only those who have followed the trend of the creation of a South shorn of sectionalism, narrowness, blighted spiritualism, ignorance bigotry, racial and religious intolerance can come any way near measuring the genuine loss it sustains in the departure of these two men.
While Dr. Durham brought more directly his own personality, great education and spiritual generosity to bear upon the influences that would retard the development of this section in particular and the country in general. Dr. Chase exemplified the same spirit more in his labors to build up a great citadel of liberalism at Chapel Hill. Nevertheless the South and the Nation will be eternally indebted to these men for what they wrought for mental freedom and human tolerance.
Dr Durham, who has answered the final summons, had scant regard for races and sects as such. He was deeply concerned with humanity. Though the head of a fine university and leading a splendid student body, no question ever appealed to his innermost nature as deeply as did a question of human justice and Christian brotherhood. He took to the public platform in the advocacy of interracial goodwill because he believed that no amount of education for his students or for the country superseded that in importance, not because he loved or cared for races but because he loved and believed in humanity and its obligation to live in Christ-like ways. His death brings an irreparable loss to this section.
The South can ill afford to lose liberal leaders of this stripe, either by death or removal, as they act as a leaven to stir the community to a better state of mind.
In noting the death of Archibald H Grimke, which occurred recently in Washington, D. C., the Boston Chronicle paid the following tribute to his life and work:
Mr Grimke was an eminent man of affairs, lawyer, publicist and scholar. His long life was replete with honors and distinctions. A Spingarn medalist and a former president of the American Negro Academy, he was by virtue of his achievement a man of light and leading in the wilderness of American life.
Not only was Mr. Grimke's achievements personally signal, but also his life was an inspiration to others, throughout its eighty years of duration. He never tired in championing the less fortunate members of his race. He rendered laudable service

The Week of March 15 Astrologically Considered
March 19 will find the first half of the year rather unsettled and difficult. There will be a need for care among machinery and sharp instruments. Those who quarrel will at times life itself. It seems that a part of the opposite sex will be helpful in the time of need. The year will be financially good, and the expense will equal or surpass the income if care is not used. Kowals and marriage are indicated for most of today. The women will need a guard the health. Law suits will cause loss. Family and donor changes are indicated.
The people of March 20 will need to guard the health, and use the most patience in all things. Some opposition in family and domestic circles will cause worry. The who are employed should be kept careful in dealing with the support in the employment, for a new job will be very hard to get. New plans and new ideas will not be worth while. The vibrations are not favorable for marriage, although there is an indication of a worthwhile-friend in the opposite for many. The speech and wrinkles should be thoughtful.
March 21 begins a new sign. Arms and the folks of today are will inured. Those who have energy in good judgment will certainly allow to get ahead. Family and domestic affairs will be the cause of more concern. Those who are employ will certainly need to use patterning in good judgment to keep the job. A new job will be very hard to get After 7 14 p. m., for those on the west coast and after 10 14 p. m., those on the east coast the day be worthwhile. Romance and pirage are not advised.

The birthyear for March 15 promises financial gain, and yet family affairs will be the cause of much expense. Those of today who can be very careful in the speech and writing will not find any cause for regreat. Legal matters will cause much financial loss, and should not be undertaken if possible. Patience, and plenty of thought, will do much to make the year pleasant in the family and domestic circle. New plans will not turn out well. It is possible to make that a very good year.
The coming year for those who were born on March 10 will be favourable in many ways, and yet the outcome depends on the people of today who go after worth while things. There is need for care in the speech and writings, and the tendency to extravagance should be watched. The people of today who use patience and judgment will find themselves ahead at the end of the birthyear.
March 17 begins, a birthyear that will certainly be worth while from a social and business point of view, if the tendency to extravagance can be curbed. Venus forms a rather good aspect to the Sun at 2.27 p.m. for those who live on the west coast, and at 5.27 p.m., for those who live on the east coast. The vibrations are favorable and intense, and it is impossible to fail if good judgment and energy are used. However, the inclination to extravagance is very, very strong. The people of today would do well to save as much as is possible. Rainy days will come.
The coming birthyear for March 18 will require careful attention to the health, and caution in traveling. Those who handle sharp instruments and machinery should be very careful to avoid injury. Quarrels will only cause unhappiness and possible serious injury. The employment and business are under very favorable vibrations. Those who do not use good judgment and the utmost patience will find the year a loss. It is fortunate that we can make our lives what we will. The people of today can succeed or fail, whatever they choose.
Those who begin a birthyear on

Archibald H Grimke passes, and the ranks of the Old Guard of Negrge attunement are being steadily depleted by the inexorable and grim Angel of Death. His place, the places of his generation, must be filled, and the gaps challenge the youth of today. Are they made of as stern stuff? A favorable answer - from youth would assure Mr Grimke in the beyond that his life was not spent in vain.
Following his return from San Domingo, Mr. Grimke engaged in journalism, at one time being a special correspondent of The Age. He was uncompromising in his convictions and wrote with much force and distinction.

‘bestowed upon members of the all-
Negro cast for intelligent interpreta-
tion and skillful portrayal of charac-
ters.
Mr. Connelly has made a_daring
intrepid excursion int Biblical lore
The play is crowded with significance
for the native theatre and the Negro.
The former has been enriched by: the
play, so verdant and refreshing in
its simpheity; and the latter has at-
tained through it wider recognition
‘as an actor and a more definite sta-
tus in the legitimate field,
“As the sdythe pageant: drama_ is
‘akin to a fairy story and sts imagina-
tive author has envitaged both the
celestial and the terrestrial, due
credit is given the actors for their
artistic achievement. It cannot be
erroneously assumed that they are
disporting themselves just_as in the
everyday life of which they are a
part.
Richard B, Harrison, “The Lord”
of the play, 1s one of America’s best-
Known dramane readers: As & speak:
er of Negro dialect he has nn peer.
His versatility has been demonstrat
ed. Whether the works of Dunbar
or Shakespeare, he reads with dra-
atic power and fidelity. Impos-
ing in figure and endowed with nat-
ural grits of voice, he has made him-
cell an outstanding figure as an elo-
cutionist_ among Ins people through-
out the United “States for more than
2 quarter of a century.

Ulysses G. Chambres In Organ Recital
A fair sized audience assembled at Mother A M E Zion Church, the Rev. J. W. Brown, pastor on Monday night, March 10, to listen to a program of organ music played by Ulysses Garrison Chambres, a former Baltimore, graduate in music from the Damrosch Institute of Musical Art, this city. The concert was sponsored by the senior chorus of the church, C. F. LeGart chormaster, Mrs. Arvilla H. Hoyer, president. It was a program of considerable variety that was offered by Mr Chambres, the more important numbers including the Sonata in D minor by Gulman, a Theme and Variations in A Flat by Thiele and the Passacaglia by Bach. Other offerings were Bordin's "Au couvremon" by Symphonique by Miller, and a Romance by Leenare. The long delay in starting the program necessitated a shortening of the program, and made it impossible for this reviewer to remain until its conclusion.
Mr. Chambres, according to the program, has had extensive training in his chosen art, having studied not only the organ, but voice training, conducting or instrumental and vocal ensembles and specialization in the field of Public School Music, as well, having held a pervious position in the schools or Baltimore, Washington, St. Louis, Chicago and New York. In his playing, he gave evidence of considerable technical development, using both the manuals and the pedals with some pronouncement. There was not, however, the depth of imagination or lucidity of interpretation that was to be expected. During his tenure, there was not sufficient time to enter into a detailed review of the recital, and one must be content with saying that some of the lighter numbers, including two encores, were enjoyably done. But the Guilmant and Bach numbers were not so satisfactory.

subtituted for Mrs Jess Zackery,
who was prevented by illness
from appearing, and furnished a
delightful treat to the litterers by
the gorgeous beams of her

was more improvement in concu-
sion, there is still lacking
the charis that would add touch to
the enjoyment of her simmons.
New Negro Art Theatre Presents New Play
New Negro Art Theatre Presents New Play
A small audience was present Saturday night, March 17, at the New Negro Art Theater, 240 W. 12th street, for the first presentation of Wade In The Worl, a new play in three acts and seven scenes, written by Jordan Hemley. The scenes had in theatrical form in 1881, and pursued the inquest meted out to the Negro by the whites at the time.
It was captivating presented as a whole, although there were one or two weak spots in the cost. The outstanding work was that of Inez Llushnis, Malinda Johnson, while Hemley Winfield was especially good as Ilhah, hub-and-hat, Malinda.
Others in the cast were I. DeWalt Spencer, Gertrude Leadert, Leila Gardner, Gina Moore, Larry Gorear, Hankie Barton, Ada Max, William Kensr. ir, and Mar hall.

Mr. Rose Herbert Shapman, a bishop emphasized in his address the significance of the occupancy, the fact that "This is a unique assurance that is beautifully the man and highly state-manlike. He was the criterion of the inservice and precluded that our choirs are fashionable, exclusive and our own. Today my bishop filled with gratitude, pride and appreciation."

Alonzo P Hardy, bandmaster of Manhattan 43 Concert Band was presented on Sunday afternoon, March 9 at 5:30 at the Public School 129 at 140th street in a concert under the sponsorship of Harlem Mothers Club or P & P and Mrs Minnie Wilkerson president. A large audience greeted and generously applauded the distinguished program.
Congressman Joseph A. Tavagan was introduced and stressed the naming of two colored box for appointment to the Naval Academy at Annapolis, the Congressman having previously conducted an examination of six box as a test determine the best selection for the coveted post.
The musical program was rendered with a sim and visor and the program on the whole was well rendered. Poet and Peasant's was very flushly rendered but we cannot refrain from noting the clarinet player in a solo of that number tracing to add to the original score. Six numbers, as Poet and Peasant's says, here and there in tempo but no conductor. could allow any of his men to tamper with the score, in this class of music particularly in any degree, about a reprimand to the offender. Muss. Constance Berkester, for a a soprano solo, is forced to disappoint the many altar-men singing in the brother. Mr M H Minion, who with Miss Berkester, was guest artist, rendered two sax solo's. Souvenir, and "Clant-Religions." Both numbers were well received by the large gathering.
The master of ceremonies, Exalted Ruler E. Summus, full of exaltance, as usual and proud of his band, introduced Sergeant at Arms Mr. Vinson as the Musical at Harlem Musicals, and at the conclusion of a number remarked that

"if the hand kept on that way there would be no more contests."
The Glee Club from Riverdale Orphan Asylum gave a good account of themselves. Julian Green, trombonist of the band, played "Solitude" as a solo, and at the insistence of the audience played "Londondery Air" as an encore. Invited guests were Apex Temple, 337, and Henry Lincoln Lodge, No. 630. Harlem Mothers' Club of P. S. 99 should be complimented for the interesting and varied program offered by Manhattan 45 Band. Bandmaster Hardy seems determined to make his band a tactor to be counted with when bands of Harlem are discussed.
Isham Jones, who is not a stranger to New York, is now playing at the Grand Ballroom of the Schroeder Hotel in Milwaukee. Coming over the air, the orchestra is crisp, snappy and full of rhythm. As announced, "Feeling that way," a new number by Israel, was a slow fox trot well played. This was followed by an adaptation from "Narcissus," which was nicely arranged and enticing to the feet.
WGA, a radio station or Cologne took pains to announce one night last week to its listeners that the station never broadcast mechanical music. If other stations saw it to follow suit, many musicians would welcome the change. So they bear the word testin', count from the lips of the announcer, indicating the mechanical demon in working and the men who made the record might be listening to it perhaps dependent.

An elaborate program had been arranged by the committee, and was enjoyed by all present. The meeting opened with the singing of the Negro National Anthem, after which invocation was offered by Rev.

If you have fat—remove the cause! KRUSTEN SALTS contain the six mineral salts your body organs, glands and nerves must have to function properly. When your vital organs fail to perform their work correctly—your bowels and kidneys can't throw off that waste materials before you realize it—you're growing helplessly. You're full of KRUSTEN SALTS in a glass of hot water every morning—in three weeks get on the scales and note how many pounds of fat have vanished.
Supreme, Chancellor W. Ashbie Hawkins, attorney of Baltimore made a few remarks telling of the stupendous undertaking, at the close of which, assisted by Mr. Benjamin, he lighted a match and burned up a mortgage note of $42,500. At this time the chorus from the Union Baptist Church song "Walk together children, don't you get weary." Among the officers who were introduced were: S. V. C. Harvey Martin of Springfield, Mass.; Grand Chancellor Benjamin F. Creasy of Providence, R. I.; Superintendent Trustees J. H. Walden and T. G. Schuyler of Boston; S. M. Exchequer William A. Heathman of Providence, R. I., and S. W. R. D. Mrs. Roberta K. Skinner of Cambridge, Mass.; George E. Gordon, S. K. R. S., was chairman of the committee and Mrs. Skinner was the secretary.
At the conclusion of the program, benediction was pronounced by Rev. Lawscount, and the members came forward in large numbers and subscribed towards the second mortgage note in a substantial amount. A committee headed by Mrs. Alice M. Taylor, grand worthy councilor, then served a bountiful collation of sandwiches, cake and tonic to all presents.
At The Alhambra
Perfection in talking pictures is what the Alhambra management aimed for and after viewing the opening program, it looks as though it has been accomplished.
Buck and Bubbles, who are so popular in Harlem, clown through a new talking comedy called "Fowl Play", and the audience*roars at the intent naturalness of the fun.
Then in "Big News" the inside of a great newspaper office is seen, with Robert Armstrong as a fearless reporter who has incurred the poring the bootlegging and narco-annomity of the underworld by extic rings.
"Fast Life" is the musical comedy with Dusty Fletcher, Margaret Simms, who ws so charming in "Hot Chocolates", "Kittle Ablauche the Three Blackbirds, Jesse Cryor, Andrew Tribble, Monte Hawley, Billy Yarbo and a number of others.
There's a peppy new band, the Skylarkers, and of course, the latest edition of Alhambra Girls all joining to create gay and speedy entertainment "Beyond the Mask," the drama deals with a strange mis-shapen thing of horror called "The Living Skull," who has committed many murders Thomas Moseley, Artie Cain and Frances Sheppard have prominent roles. In the end the mystery is solved but only by the death of "The Living Skull."
NEXT WEEK
"Jules Bledsoe, the Ziegfeld "Showbait" star, has a gorgeous new talking and singing picture called "Old Man Trouble," and it will be one of the features at the Alhambra next week beginning Monday
"Painted Faces", a romance of circus life, has Joe H. Brown, as its principal star in the character of an acrobat and clown. His love his broken heart and his revenge furnish the theme
Besides the talking pictures there sical comedy revolves of considerable will be the "Spring Follis," a musplender with a cast including Swan and Lee, and also a torrid drama of the South Sea Islands entitled "Burning Kisses"
Lincoln Tops Varsity Stars In Close Clash
By.PAUL TERRY
Pittsburgh, Pa. The adage that "Youth must be served" seemed to assert itself in an interesting basketball game at Duquesne Garden Monday night when the ambitious young Lincoln University Lion quintet defeated the crack Varsity Stars five with the famous Young and Betts ex-Loenders, in the lineup. The lion-hearted basketeers could not grasp the 23 to 21 vectors however, until the last few minutes of the game.
Lincoln jumped into an early lead with the elongated Sydnor and the elusive Smith setting the pace in scoring. Six points were registered by the Lions before the Stars found themselves. A pair of field goals by Johnn, Moore and Gus Neville, which tied the score, and a couple of free throws by Young and Moore were the only tallies made by the locals in the first half. Lincoln had earned nine in this period, while Sydnor took the loop for field shots in the second half and Teems Harris and Gus Neville registered a thrilling jone apiece, but two difficult shots which wedge scored by dawkins and another by De-Costa, proved to be the "straws which broke the camel's back" for the locals.
Notice also that you have gained in energy your skin is clearer—your eye spakele with glorious health—you feel younger in body—keener in mind. KRUSCHIEN will give any fat-person a joyous surprise.
Get an 850 bottle of KRUSCHIEN 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—or gloriously energetic—vigorously alive—your money gladly returned.
Community Centre Opens Home In Niagara Falls
Niagara Falls, N. Y.-It may be stated, in connection with the acquisition of the new quarters for the Niagara Falls Community Centre that the Centre has grown so rapidly during the past few months, that the board of, directors were much concerned as to what was to be done with the additional members: This dilemma was fortunately solved by the president of the association, Samuel W. Dett, who had been quietly at work for the past year seeking suitable quarters for the housing of the association.
The new home of the association is a well built house of nine rooms, well laid out, and well adapted to the needs of the Centre. A new heating system has been installed every room freshly papered, and florists painted. The members of the Centre seem to vie each with another in an effort to make their new home beautiful, and that they are succeeding goes without question. It is planned to have "An Open House" in the near future.

AMONG PULLMAN EMPLOYEES
THINGS SEEN, HEARD AND DONE AMONG PULLMAN EMPLOYEES
By JAMES H. HOGANS
PERRY PARKER RETAINS PLACE
Perry Parker, confidential agent of the powers that be in the management of the Pullman service and Grand Chairman of the Pullman Porters Benefit Association, still retains his place as big chief among the tribe of Pullman porters. 'This was demonstrated most conclusively at the home of the colored Y.-W. C. A. in Jersey City on Thursday evening, March 6, at which place and time the association's head was the guest at a reception and dinner which was given by Locals, No. 14, 16 and 60, of the Hoboken, Jersey City, Erie and Jersey City Southern districts in his honor.
There have been many aspirants among the tribe for the crown of the Grand Chairman of the association. And in late years, there were many who thought that, as big chief of the tribe, the old warrior's days were over. But neither contenders for his crown nor prophets of his end have been successful in finishing the old chiefship. Judging from the manner in which his virtues and achievements as leader and warrior were extolled on last Thursday evening, there are yet some days to pass before porters industrial and fraternal hats are worn upon to relinquish his crown. That impression began as you entered the Y. W. C. A. building. It assumed proportion during the serving of the dinner. It became a tradition that the hundred guests, composing so many New Jersey's influential residents, the porters, who were host of the evening, and their wives, had applauded the peas of praise that they showered on the honored guest.
One of the speakers of the evening, the Rev. P. H. Walden, declared that, in his opinion, the Pullman porter group had done, and was still doing, more good in the work than the progress of the Negro than any other Negro laboring that he could name'. The basis for that opinion were the number of successful Negroes of his acquaintance, who had been at some time or other Pullman station, and the number of fathers who had struggled that their sons and daughters might be by training equipped for the new era in life. Other guests, not of the porters, group, spoke along identical lines, and they were not at all it for what he had accomplished for the Negro in the field of labor. It was left, however, to the faithful braves of the tribe to tell just what these accomplishments were, braves who did that, some of an orator, were.
T M Blanton, the Beau Brummel and welfare worker in the Philadelphia district; J. D. Bannister, the ministerial looking portfolios manager in the Southeastern zone; H A W. Jones, the college professor of the Pittsburgh district; J. M. Brown, of the P T Terminal* and vice-president of the diplomat S J Freeman, welfare worker in the New York district; and the lawyer, P A Sample, of the P T district.
At the end of their perceptions, much little was left untold regarding the job for the Pullman Negro worker, the honored guest was introduced.
No matter what one might say about Perry Parker, there is one thing of which no observer may find egotistic. None but those who are frequent recipients of praise know how it feels when it comes in torrents. To evaluate the porters Grand Chairman, it might be said that praise seems through his head despite drepping through a percolater.
When he responded to the introduction last Thursday evening, he verified that observation 'allOUND' his remark. Speaking on the Pullman Company's organization, he told how this organization had over-ridden what many of them thought would be a serious squall when the Pullman Company had introduced the group insurance. He had no criticism, he said, to make regarding the plan; for this phase of insurance was designed to benefit all Pullman employees, and not a fraction of these employees, who were organized to do. But there are certain features of the organization which cannot be duplicated by any insurance plan, and it was a source of pleasure to him to know that partners have realized this, he added.
On the industrial situation, Mr. Parker gave a note of warning. He said, our people (Negroes) have been kidding themselves have planted Plant Service, would he, declared, admonish them to stop the kidding, about only Negroes are acceptable, to the traveling public. This is not a fact. Mexican porters are now running into the St. Louis district, and the public are plastered with their services, he declared. Continuing, he said, thirteen Chinese maids have replaced thirteen Negro maids on Western Lines, and the public like it. He after spending two weeks with relatives and friends here. He was the recent guest of his sister, Mrs. Irene Toliver. Mrs. Ruth Williams spent last Thursday with her mother in New Haven. Mrs. Walter C. Lawner of the C. P. Island served for home Saturday, March 8. Mrs. Lewis of Baltimore was the weekend guest of Mr. and Mrs. George Faraudes.
Mr. and Mrs. John Thomas spent

brothers.
didn't know exactly how many Filipinos were in service today, but he did know that their number was large, and the American was not averse to having their service to be a servicist, he declared, but the services of the Negro on Pullman cars must improve, if he is to hold his own. Mr. Ocampo said that the group insurance as well as the P. P. B. A., had showed up a side of Negro life which was not complimentary to the race. Commenting on unemployment, he declared that there were 40,000 Negroes in the city, and none of which could even buy a job. One of the pleasant features of the reception and dinner was the program of singing which was rendered by the New Jersey districts' Heavenly Light Quartet. The committee in charge of the affair was Darden, Hoboken; R. H. Janes, J. C. Erie; J. McCoy, J. C. Southern.
Mott Haven Yard News
Not-to be entirely eclipsed by the conductors, although they gave a purse of three-hundred dollars, the porters in this district present their former superintendent, Mr. K. former with a pair of diamond-studded cuff links, a token of esteem in which he was held by them.
The presentation took place at the Imperial Elk- Home, West 129th street, on Wednesday afternoon, and was made by Porter H. Preceding that he indent, a musical band, Pullman Porters Band, under the leadership of Lieut. J. W. Porter, was rendered. Also brief remarks by members of the district on the feelings of goodwill and co-operation that had been maintained here in the regime of the departing official.
Although health, as well as pecuniary considerations, was largely responsible for the veteran superintendent's acceptance of the Western post, it is said that, it was with deep regret that he left work boys. Mr. Ritgamhouse left for the West last Thursday.
Now this shouldn't be told, for the "Major" has an official reputation to maintain. Furthermore, in the best way says, are permitted in the best way, they are not too often and too various. But the "Major" is such a stukleer for the observance of time that this tale will not stay put in their closet to strings to forget, no matter how strong the effort is made to keep it there.
At the dinner to Perry Parker in Jersey City on Thursday of last week, every one of the "old guard" was inquiring, "Where is Bill Taylor tonight?" Welfareworker, Sam Freeman said: "He told me he had been in the hospital." Sample, the P.T. orator, declared, "that is funny that he is not here."
Perry Parker, the mogul of the evening, had the looks of a father whose every son was present at the family gathering but his favorites were not. He said, in justice to the other sons, that the sad countenance was due to son Bull's absence. Nevertheless, the mogul appeared downcast for some reason.
"The following morning, Friday, I was passing through the Grand Central Station," he, there, yelled a friend, "how was it that you were not at the dinner last night?" "What dinner? blundly asked the
"What dinner?" blandly asked the
"Major."
"Why, the one to Berry Parker," answered the friend. "Oh, that's tonight," returned "Major." For describe the "Major" was a disquenquent on time. He had computed Friday as the sixth instead of Thursday. But take this as a warning: Don't yon new porters try that time stunt o nthe assistant employment agent. Don't yon neatly meeting of Local Committee C will be held at Mott Haven Yards on Thursday of this week. Word has reached this department that Mr. and Mrs. William Wallace will be meeting Grill Room, 15 East 43rd street, Chicago, are enjoying the patronage of most of the Pullman crews that operate between New York and Chicago. The news is good news. It should be the duty of every Pullman employee to promote and patronize those of the group who try to launch out for themselves Mr. Scott operated as a porter out of the New York district for some years. His wife, formerly a maid of course, was Miss Savannah Johnson.
"The Yankee Clipper," the new New York-Boston train of the New Haven Lines, which will be put into operation the first of next month, will carry besides conductor, a hallman crew of eight porters and a crew of three on for those unable for service on the proposed fleet.

Penn Terminal Notes
By J. T. REID
Our grapd chairman of the P. P. B. A. of A., Perry Parker, was entertained by Locals 14, 16 and 60 of Hoboken, Life and Jersey City Southern Districts, on Thursday night, March 6, at the Y. W. C. A. 43 Belmont avenue, Jersey City, Mr. Parker made a wonderful speech about the success of the P. P. B. A. of A. This writer will go on record hoping that the plains did not succeed by our guard company, and by the success of the P. P. B. A. of A. will be carried out according to his wishes.
We would like to remind all porters in the "Pullman service that their future progress with the Pullman Company depends a great deal upon the P. P. B. A. of A, whose standing with the Pullman. Company places it in a position to help them in more ways than one. And to you porters who have not yet joined the Pullman Company, you should do so at once. Even if you are a Pullman you should do so for the protection it will give you and your family in time of need.
We are proud to say that the P. P. B. A. of A; since its organization, has always had the support of the P. T. District who boast of having the largest membership in the organization. Our Welfare Worker, P. A. Sample, is secretary of our Loyalty, must at a time mention our instructor Kirk, W. Kirk who never tires seeking new members. Whenever a new man enters the service in our district the first thing he hears from Instructor Kirk is "Instructor Reid, write Mr. So and So up in the P. P. B. A. of A, while I get his equipment."
We are sorry, but being cramped for space in this column we are not able to mention at-this writing other wonderful deeds made by P. A. Sample and others in regards to the P. P. B. A. of A.
Well we notice that telegrams for I. Marks still arrive here collect.
Ed Hall can be heard daily asking "whose suit case is this?"
We often wonder what porters are thinking about when they are cutting up the benches in our waiting room. Boy, some of our porters can do more with a Georgia switch than a carpenter can do with a plane.
We have just completed a class of 14 men, taken up around New York for service out of P. T. and Jersey City-Southern Districts. The following will be sent to Jersey City-Southern District. to District Superintendent A. A. Garsline G. P. Miller, T. Ellison, I. W. Schultz, R. Brown. The following remain at P. T. G. Gebrook, D. C. Fitch, J. A. Nealy, P. Palmer, J. Edwards, H. L. Lewis, B. Parray, E. A. Edwards, H. F. Hester, L. J. Armstrong and S. Jefferson.
Now that Spring will soon be with us, we wonder what the well dressed men are going to wear. We will keep our eyes open and watch G. T. Green, No. 1, E. N. Barbour, D. L. Devin, J. Pell, E. S. Wise, J. Pemberton, N. H. Jefferson, J. John, No. 2, W. J. Franklin, P. A. Sample and J. A. Johnson.

Growth of Race Segregation In Boston Evidenced By Barring Of Negroes From Certain Public Halls
A Contributing Cause Is Alleged In the Bitter Rivalry Existing Between the Two Race Papers and Publicity Given Their Fights
By Rienzi B. Lemus
Boston, Mass.—The inevitable occurs: segregation in Boston! No attempt is made to veil the thing. It is the plainly branded discrimination because of race. And seekers of the reasons, penetrating the superficial, are not finding the usual root causes. It appears to be somewhat "Homeopathic"—a sort of like producing like.
Boston, Mass.—The inevitable occurs: segregation in Boston! No attempt is made to veil the thing. It is the plainly branded discrimination because of race. And seekers of the reasons, penetrating the superficial, are not finding the usual root causes. It appears to be somewhat "Homeopathic"—a sort of
This race discrimination first became noticeable here last Spring. The Junior Matrons Club of Rest Haven, an institution for aged and infirm given the community by Edgar P. Benjamin; foremost attorney (though Afric), sent on of their dance committee to engage the Music Box—a South end dance hall for a Rest Haven benefit, after a year in non-commercial women an happened to be without pigmentation, though her selection was routine and not specifically because of the aforementioned lack of African obviousness, and she engaged the hall, leaving the required performance 'of contract deposit.
Cancelled Contract For Hall.
Upon learning that it was "acolored" dance (which fact no attempt had been made to conceal), the Music Box dance-manager, returned the deposit and notified the young matrons their date had been cancelled. Learning of this, the professional race protesters started the usual, useless, public clamor, and its delegation was left heel-cooling the Mayor's outer office, to whence it had come without appointment. Through the offices of Dr. Benjamin E. Robinson, Republican leader Charles H. Innes, (white) forced the Music Box management to go through with the Rest Haven dance, in one telephone communication, despite which "the professional protesters insisted on celebrating a 'race victory' in which they had no part. After 'twas profitable' (to Rest Haven) all over—even the shorting
Three weeks, or so ago the city was started by the frank admission of a sort of composite apartment-hotel manager that colored persons are "kerboten" on the premises, because of objections by tenants of the establishment, due to ten or fifteen couples lounging at the palatial rest rooms at a "mixed dance there a short time previously"; that the managers of the Boston Latin School's "class prom" had been categorically informed of the anti-Negro policy when applying for the establishment's dance hall for their affair, and denial of admission to a colored student and his lady at the door was the fault of the school, not of the hotel management.
Bold Discrimination.
Ten days afterwards, renting agents of an office building on Dartmouth street denied application of the local Socialists for headquarters on her premises solely because the Socialists declined to keep Negroes out of the buildings. Thus, chronologically, has segregation moved forward here, recently. Generally, such hold and boasted racial discrimination in hitherto literal Boston is attributed to the alleged general spread of segregation throughout the land. But old Boston was an analytical grouping, and some of the old town still mentions the segregation of its residents. It is among this element that one finds thorough and painstaking effort to go to the bottom of the thing. One of it notes that segregation in big urban communities of the North has invariably

been the result of friction due to rapid increases in Negro populations, causing a spread out and among whites, who found the race issue the line of least resistance to a superficial white supremacy. But Boston, he stresses, has had no influx of or even appreciable stable increase in, "Negro population." To accomplish the purpose these are probably less Africs here than in 1910, and certainly, much less than was shown by the Federal decremal census of 1920. "The 'Boston Negro,' he concludes, 'is not spreading anywhere; to the contrary he is going the other way—disappearing.'"
Another "old timer," though somewhat bitter, commands attention to his narration or "what it's (segregation) all about." He begins by noting that frank, open segregation appeared simultaneously with the "intra-Afric war" waged here between the bitter-ender anti-segregationalists and liberal element, represented, respectively, by the Boston guardian and the Boston Chromite. According to him, every effort or progressives to promote and establish Negro-manned enterprise or institutions has been bitterly fought by the Guardian under the slogan, "segregation," and the white press has been used by both sides, with the inevitable consequences of, "awakening" superficial whites, whose number is legion, to as self-consciousness now becomes manifest segregation. His race ambition as inviting segregation has operated to make otherwise fast asleep whites resent the "idea" of Negroes being same as whites; that had race enterprises got started ere now they would have achieved a potential economic status to foil racial discrimination, more or less.
It really began, still another maintains, with the clamor of the unsuccessful attempts to present showing on the "Birth of a Nation" here 15 years ago. The noise of futile protest, the quoted person avers, caused thousands to hear of and see the vicious picture who never would have known about it otherwise, and race relations, particularly among the middle classes, never have been the same since, the quoted person strenuously holds "Had damn picture" the holder, "had damn picture" the toger, unimagined it would have been forgotten by the new who might have seen it, but failure to present it only served to advertise it."
An "Intra-Afric War." -
Back to the "intra-Afric war". To put some life and culture in a "dead" neighborhood the Boston Urban League announced its purpose to establish a sort of community centre up in the vicinity of "Gloom Court". South end. This was signal for the anti-"segregationalists" to get started on a campaign against. But progress is slow.

serdion to free Boston. For the first time, the Chronicle openly took issue with its contemporary and hit back furiously, and the war goes on nastily, though without recent editorials from either trench. Commenting on this episode of the segregation" that has produced segregation, a native observes that "Guardian has been in our midst for 50-60 years and now has but one employee—a clerk; while 'outlanders from 'serdion,' responsible for its contemporary, have, developed a printing business, with its own newspaper plant—including press, and employs regularly and steadily eleven persons."
The concensus of 'analytical opinion seems to be that segregation is to be accounted for here in 'paraphrasal of the fable about the children and the wolves: it will be recalled that the children twice yelled "the wolves" when there were none. just to see how rapidly and numerously the elders might turn out for the rescue bus on the third occasion, parents, thinking it a false alarm, remained home, and the wolves destroyed the kids. It looks as though the yell "segregation" has brought real segregation. "For certainly there was none actual nor attempted, when the yelling began," analytical opinion maintains.
16th Annual Health Week Begins March 30
Tuskegee Institute, Ala.-Local state and national health and welfare organizations have been invited to join the National. Negro Business League, the Tuskegee Negro Conference and the United States Public Health Service in the observance of the National Negro Health Week March 30 through April 6. A call has been issued by Dr. Robert R Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute, and president of the National Negro Business League to these organizations urging them to unite in the cause of better health for the race
The observance of health week originated with the Negro Organization Society of Virginia, under the presidency of Dr. Muton, then commandant of cadets at Hampton Institute. It worked with such results in Virginia that in 1915 the National Negro Business League, then under the direction of Dr. Muton, undertook to nationalize the observance. Year by year the week has been more widely observed and has arraised a greater interest in and understanding of the health problems and health education among Negroes
