SENATE COMMITTEE REVIVES CHARGES OF GRAFT IN SOUTH BY REPUBLICAN LEADERS Both White and Colored Are Included By Senators, After Investigating Ga., Miss., Texas, S. C.
Washington, D. C.—Notwithstanding that Perry W. Howard, National Republican Committee from Mississippi, was definitely acquitted by the courts of that state of any criminal or venal acts in the dispensing of political patronage, a sub-committee of the Senate Postoffice Committee, with Senator Smith W. Brookhart as chairman, has just made a report in which it charges that "the barter and sale of office was carried on in the most businesslike way through Perry W. Howard."

the subcommittee's investigations covered Georgia, Mississippi, South Carolina and Texas, and its report has specific charges of grafting an connection with the dispensing of Federal patronage, and urges prosecution by the Department of Justice of those who are charged with violating the law; it also asks greater power for the Federal Corrupt Practices Act.
Money Used Personally.
It was charged by the committee that Republican leaders in the states under investigation had built up a practice of leasing a contribution of at least 5 per cent of the salaries of Federal jobholders, and that this money was used to maintain the party machinery and pay other expenses, but never to add the Republican ticket, either state or normal. What has not been necessary to take care of actual office expense has been appropriated by way of salaries and "expenses" to private use of the leaders. Referring to Perry Howard, the committee estimates that he had probably received $50,000 in eighteen months from officeholders.
Referring to the Georgia situation, the committee said that a regular system of collecting from officeholders was set up by John W. Martin, the Director of Central Republican Committee and with assessments ranging from 5 to 10 per Cent of the officeholders' salaries. Continuing the report said:
How It Was Done In Georgia
"We found, upon examination of the records kept by the Republican State treasurer, Mr. Martin, and from canceled returned checks and the bills of the checkbooks," the report said, "that the money so collected, or the greater portion thereof, was distributed as salary and traveling expenses for Mr. Martin and Ben Davis, the former National Committeeman from the State of Georgia, and one or two others." "We also found that these payments and this policy had been continued back to the time when Henry Lincoln Johnson" was National Committeeman from that State. The record showed that he received $200 per month, with various travel expenses added thereto. Ben Davis and John W. Martin-received salaries of $250 per month, with many expense items added to this salary.
McKellar Presents Views.
Preventing his own views, Senator M-Kellar, a member of the committee, declared that K. A. Campbell, Collector of Customs at Laroche Texas, and J. H. Hartman, District Attorney of San Antonio, ought to be dismissed from the serier connection with violations of the prohibition law. He said he had protested to President Henser, and urged their dismissal against "the conduct of both all if they were disclosed by them, on the witness stand, especially in reference to the prohibition law, undefensible"

BENJAMIN J. DAVIS
Formerly National Republican Committeeman from Georgia' Scored by Senators for alleged wrong political actions.
He also wrote to President Hoover suggesting that the evidence against J. D. E. Meyer, United States Attorney at Charleston, S. C., warranted his prompt dismissal. As to South Carolina, the committee said:
"From testimony taken by the committee and summing up of the affidavits submitted with other testimony, it would indicate beyond a reasonable doubt that practically all the Federal offices were placed on sale by J. W. Tolbert or through his representatives.
Collections In Texas.
As to conditions in Texas, the report said.
"In reference to the State of Texas, the committee found that this organization based its support upon the solicitation of notes in a large majority of cases from the prospective office-seekers at the time the organization started under the direction of R. B. Creager. Later on the majority of the notes secured were from Federal employees or those anticipating appointment to Federal office through R. B. Creager and his Texas organization."
"The Republican State Committee of Texas collected $105,170 from officeholders on notes from 1921 to 1928, but did not reveal how much was received in cash
"Creager's only interest in building up a two-party system in the State of Texas is to perpetuate himself in office as National Committeeman of that State," says the report. "Creager did everything he possibly could to defeat Congressman Wurzbach, the only Republican Representative from Texas, and your committee believes, that the sole purpose in his endeavor to defeat Representative Wurzbach was to give himself absolute control of all Federal patronage in the State, which would better enable him, through the distribution of public offices, to retain him as leader of the State organization."

Interdenominational Ministers Hear Rev. Proctor Defend Himself; Brooklyn Doctors Make Statement
In a meeting of the Interdenominational Ministers at the Fleet Street Church, Brooklyn, last Wednesday, a general discussion was engaged in on the interview given by the Rev. Henry H. Proctor to the Brooklyn Daily Times.
The North Harlem Medical Society, Dr. Charles C. Middleton, president, held a special meeting, on Thursday evening, March 13, called for the purpose of discussing plans for a public tuberculosis meeting to be held in April, at which time Dr. Harry M. Minton of Philadelphia will deliver an address; to make a change in the secretarialship, it having been discovered, that Dr. Farrow Allen, who was named to that position at the February meeting following the resignation of Dr. Charles A. Petioni, had not formerly been made a member of the Society; and to consider the giving of a banquet to Mayor James J. Walker, Commissioner W.iam F. Greef, Commissioner Ferdinand Q. Morton, and other hospital officials.
Dr. Harold Ellis, a former secretary, was elected to that office, and plans were laid for the tuberculosis meeting, in conjunction with the New York Health and Tuberculosis Association, Dr. Minton, at that meeting, will discuss tuberculosis and the Negro.
Defeat Banquet Plan
The banquet proposition was advanced by President Middleton, and was supported by Dr. Louis C. Wright, who suggested the great good it would do in view of the fact that further changes and promotions will be made in Harlem Hospital, with prospective benefit to race doctors.
Strong opposition developed, however, and the proposal was voted down by a good sized majority. It was argued by some of the doctors present that the recent changes in the hospital were not entirely commendable: that many were unjust and that there is no guarantee that future changes would not be made on the same basis.
The argument was advanced by some that it was a movement to win support for the United Colored Democracy, and among those opposing the proposal were several men who had been benefited by the recent changes in the hospital.

the Brooklyn Daily Times
Rev. Proctor, who was present, was invited to defend himself against the charges made by his brother preachers, and in a lengthy discussion stated that he had been misquoted.
Committee 1s Named.
After listening to arguments pro and con, it was voted that the expressions of the various ministers he embodied in a report by a committee appointed for that purpose. The committee is composed of Rev. C P Cole, chairman; G. S. Starke and George Frazier Miller. Their report will be made public when they state their findings.
Two prominent physicians of Brooklyn, Drs. Edward S. Cummingham and William R. R. Granger, in a statement concerning the article said, "We, as physicians of Brooklyn, whose services in this community antedate that of Rev. Froctor, can only hope that the press have misquoted Dr. Froctor, pressed in action and in words, and often in print, sentiments with which the thinking residents of Brooklyn are in profound disagreement. Hay statement that Negroes carry disease and crime into the homes of white persons who employ them is founded on ignorance or deliberate misrepresentation.
Diseases From Employers.
"The Negro has no monopoly on disease. We both have had several cases under our care of maids who were suffering from acute infectious diseases contracted in the homes of their employers. No conclusion can be drawn from home and we need to understand that home can be drawn from Dr. Proctor's misguided statements." At the Mt. Johnson Baptist Church, Thursday evening, March 13, the Eastern Baptist Association
Resignations of Seven Physicians From Harlem Hospital Consulting Staff Does Not Affect the Service
Considerable interest was stirred the first of the week when stories in daily papers told of seven white doctors, members of the board of consulting physicians at Harlem Hospital, had resigned in consequence of the recent reorganization of the hospital staff which brought nineteen Negro physicians to service in that institution's medical board and staff, numbering 44 members.
The seven physicians who resigned were all men who had served long periods in Harlem Hospital, and they were rather bitter in expressing a reason for their action in a letter to Dr. J. G. William Greef, Commissioner of Hospitals, announcing their resignation as a protest against the alleged injustice contained in "the recent removal of skilled and long-service surgeons, physicians, gnecologists, assistants and associates from the staff of Harlem Hospital, without cause or hearing, under the guise and deception of an alleged survey . . . and other subterfuges."
Not Actively Engaged.
The consulting staff is composed of ten doctors, made up of consultants in medicine, surgery, obstetrics oncology and neurology. Persons familiar with hospital affairs point out that these men are not actively engaged in the hospital service; that there positions are purely honorary, and that they usually come to the hospital when specially called. That the care and treatment of patients fall to the doctors on the visiting staff and the house physicians and surgeons, and that their defection cannot affect in any manner the service rendered by the institution to patients of the community.
According to Dr. Lewis K. Neff, who was formerly head of the medical board of the hospital, serving in that capacity for twenty-eight years, being named a consultant last July after he had resigned the former post, said that the action was motivated by the missioner Greef's action in abolishing the board and then tendering the members reappointments.

Rev. Henry H. Proctor to-
s.
of Brooklyn and Long Island, which is composed of 40 churches, adopted a resolution which stated in part, "We consider such a statement to be a very unfortunate one. Whatever may have been the motive behind the article, the resolution shows that the Doctor lacks that superior quality of leadership, to which he aspires.
Object To Procedure.
No one objects to Dr. Procter's aspirations but we do object to his method of procedure. We should like to see him reach that high place of leadership toward, which he aspires but we do not want him to use the unfortunate members of the Negro race or any other race as stepping stones to his aspired and apparently vainly-hoped for position as a great leader of his people." In a lengthy resolution the Baptist Ministers Conference of Greater New York and Virtuity of which the Rev. Porter W. Phillips is president condemned the article and said that "the article itself finds its author guilty of flagrant disparity against his own race and community at large."
To Extend Traffic Lights on Lenox Ave.
First Deputy Police Commissioner Philip D. Hoyt has notified Alderman Fred R. Moore that the traffic lights on Lenox avenue above 135th street will be installed as soon as President of the Borough Julius Miller issues the necessary permits for opening of the streets for putting up the light poles.
reorganization of the hospital did not mean that the personnel of the board should be disturbed, and that such action "had taken away all the honor of the position."
No Time To Desert.
of the three doctors who did not resign, Dr. H. A. Haubold, of 49 Fifth avenue, consultant in surgery, declared that he had not been asked to resign, and that he would continue to serve as the senior member of the board.
Dr. Haubold, who became a member of the board thirty-five years ago, when he was twenty-seven years old, said,
"I have been on the staff so long that it is purely an honorary position." Dr. Haubold said, "I am glad to serve irrespective of anything the other men did. I will he very glad to serve the hospital under Commissioner Greeff or any other circumstances." This is no time to desert the ship.
Dr. Rudolph Rapp, assistant general medical superintendent and administrative head of Harlem Hospital, said that he had no criticism for the dismissals and that the hospital was running at capacity, with 326 patients, 60 per cent of whom were Negroes.
Harlem Dental Group Approves Reorganization At Harlem Hospita
The North Harlem Dental Society, Dr Lusie C Carter, secretary, at its meeting on March 12, passed, by unanimous vote, a resolution approving the recent reorganization of the Harlem Hospital staff, a copy of which was sent to Dr J. G. William Greef, Commissioner of Hospitals.
The resolution declared that the reorganization means "more efficient and better service to the sick of this community," opening "the door of opportunity for advanced medical and dental training to the members of both professions in this district," whereby there will "in time he reflected a lower mortality and morbidity rate," closing with a "sincere vote of thanks" to the Commissioner.
Dr. P. F. Anderson On Harlem Hospital Staff
. ____
Dr. Peyton F. Anderson of 61 West 130th street has received official notice of his appointment to the staff of Harlem Hospital, Commissioner of Fowler G, William Greffe on the recent mendation of the Medical Board of Harlem Hospital, appointed Dr. Anderson to the position of adjunct assistant visiting physician at that institution. Dr. Anderson has been especially interested in diseases of the chest and for the past seven years has devoted time and study to this branch of medicine. The New York Tuberculosis and Health Association was instrumental in making it possible for him to advance his knowledge along this line by placing him in the wards of Bellevue Hospital, where he came under the supervision of one of the guest able tuberculosis staffs in this country.
Dr. Anderson serves as chairman of the Harlem Tuberculosis Committee, and within the past two years has made numerous contributions to Tuberculosis Committee of the New York Tuberculosis and Health Association.

In order to comply with order will be rigidly enforced, and violations will be dealt with as severely as though the lights were already in operation.
Brooklyn Times Editor Admits He Misquoted Dr. Proctor In Interview Which Aroused Storm Of Controversy
Following up his statement in last week's issue of The New York Age, denying that he had used the phrase attributed to him in an interview with Richardson Webster; associate editor, and printed in the Brooklyn Daily Times of March 1, to the effect that "The colored folk go into white homes as domestic servants. And they carry their disease and crime with them," Dr. Henry Hugh Proctor, pastor of Nazarene Congregational Church, Brooklyn, has sent The Age the copy of a letter from Mr. Webster, stating that Dr. Proctor did not use that phrase.

MME. ST. CLAIR CONVICTED ON 'NUMBERS' CHARGE; GETS INDETERMINATE PRISON TERM Makes Hard Fight For Acquital As She Denies Authorship of Letters Denouncing Graft Among Police
Harlem has another mystery. Who wrote the letters to the Police Commissioner, Mayor and other city officials, accusing Harlem policemen of graft in connection with the policy game? These letters were published in a local weekly and attributed to Mme. Stephanie St. Clair, 41, of 409 Edgecombe avenue.

According to Mr. Smallwood, he was born in Washington, in 1812 His father, he said, was "personal bodyguard" of George Washington. As for himself, he says, he "brushed up many a Union office during the Civil War days."

TO THE MEMBERS AND FRIENDS OF THE NAZARENE CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH.
"We, the undersigned, representing a voluntary committee of the church wish to express our admiration for the noble defense made last Sunday morning by the pastor in the present unfortunate controversy. It requires refutation of the unfounded charges made against him and should satisfy all reasonable men.
Accusations Groundless
We have carefully examined these accusations for ourselves and told them absolutely groundless. We have it over the written signature of the interviewer, Mr Richardson Webster, that the pastor did not say that our people are carriers of disease and crime. Neither did he cast aspersions on, any of the new elements of our population. He is making a noble fight to keep our community clean and safe for every man, woman and child in it.
"In view of these things, we reaffirm our faith in his Christian integrity, racial loyalty and selfless devotion to the public welfare. During these ten years he has been with us he is carrying on to noilier heights the great record he made in twenty-five years for twenty-five years in Atlanta.
We wish, therefore, to put ourselves on record, not only as standing by him loyally in this crisis, but also in renewing our allegiance to cooperate with him in the great program he has for this Church and community.

write English. She denied authorship of the letters attributed to her when the Assistant District Attorney tried to have her write a few words for comparison with names and notations on some of the policy, slips, alleged to have been found, in her possession.
Handwriting Compared.
After a French interpreter had talked with her she did make certain alphabetical character, which were compared with those on the policy slips, and the handwriting was, sufficiently alike to warrant the judges finding her guilty as charged She was sentenced to an indefinite term in the State. Penitentiary, which court attaches 'say will be not less than one year. Mmc. St. Clair was not convicted, however, without a fight. Her counsel, ex-Judge Frederick J. Groel, who won fame as the attorney for the late Gerald Chapman, sought to show that she was the victim of police frameup because of the charges she had made against policemen in Harlem. The defendant admitted that she had been in the "numbers" business at one time, but quit in 1928 because of the exhilarant demands of the police. She sought to prove that she was going to call on Mrs. Elena Murray at 117 West 141st street on another business matter.
The defense also made much of the fact that the arrest took place at 11.20 in the day, saying no "numbers" collector would have been, turning in slips at that hour, since the "banks" close at 10 a.m.
"Expert" Kline Testifies.
Patrolman Emanuel Kline, attached to this court as an expert on "numbers," explained this by saying the slips pass through several hands and may not reach the banker until noon. He said there is usually a number of runners, who turn over their slips to a higher official or collector, who in turn checks them off with an agent for the banker before the slips themselves are finally turned in. The fact that a number of adding machine ribbons, with tabulated figures on them, found in the collection tended to substantiate this theory. Judge Groel tried to break down the testimony by calling one Mr. Taylor, a banker, who said that he had been a playrunner, and finally banker, in the "numbers" business, and had been twice convicted. He tried to qualify as an expert on the game and took issue with Mr. Kline about anyone being able to turn ships in to the banker after ten o'clock.
Denied The Charges.
Mine, St. Clair took the stand and made a general denial to the charges. She explained that she had gone to the 141st street address to have her friend, Mrs. Murray, sign some papers of incorporation for a company she was forming. The papers were produced but the name of the party mentioned at the 141st street address was not among the incorporators, who included Elder James K. Humphrey, who recently engaged in a controversy with his denomination, the Seventh Day Adherent. Her case broke down, however, when the District Attorney asked her to write several of the words found on the policy slips.
Policemen Roberts, Hunter and Carter, the arresting officers, described in detail the events leading up to the arrest. And Officer Kline added to the state's case later by reading a statement from police headquarters charging that the defendant formerly conducted an apartment at 580 St. Nicholas avenue, where several "numbers" collectors had been arrested. For three Mine St. Clair, Mr. Kline also testified that the defendant once came to him and told him that the police had arrested two of her collectors and asked his aid in getting them out of prison. He said: that he waffled away from her.

SPECIAL FEATURES
Interracial Social At Church of All Nations
Thirty Negroes and sixty whites attended an inter-racial social held Wednesday night, March 12, at the Church of all Nations, 9 Second avenue, under auspices of a committee on which the 'Harlem' League Branch of the New York Federation of Churches and seventeen other organizations were represented. Dancing "for those who wished" concluded the program.
"I known that Frenhemen dance with Negroes without any feeling," the Rev. Clarence Howell, chairman of the committee and secretary of the Fellowship Trips, explained. "So do Italians of high rank as well as low. And so our refusing to dance and eat and mingle socially with Negroes is a habit of mind. I would not call it badness in the old sense, but it causes' hardship to a racial minority.
"Accordingly, in 'order to break up this habit of mind, we endeavor to destroy taboos. So we are meeting and doing everything that they say white and colored folks shouldn't do." The Rev. Paul Baker, secretary of the Harlem League, regarded dancing as an unimportant part of the program, "The object of such meetings: he said, 'is to bring together educational and cultural groups of both races on a basis of fellowship and social contact. We are doing on a higher level what is automatically done on a lower where butlers, and housmids and chauffeurs associate together."
The program opened with an "interracial icebreaking prelude" conducted by F. Louise Parrot, Negro Girl Scout executive of Harlem. This took the form of a march so arranged as to provide a "scramble" in which the girls chose partners. Two playlets were presented by the "Utopia Players," a mixed group; Spiritualists were sung. Miss Anne Simpson sang and Miss Pigcissia Smith played the harp. Refreshments were served just before the floor was cleared for dancing. Among the groups represented on the committee sponsoring the social were the New York Urban League, Fellowship of Reconciliation, Promotion Group on Race Relations of the Community Church. Reconciliation Trips and Temple Rodeph Sholem. Mr. Howell said.

Mrs. Emma J. Brown,
40 Years In New York,
Died Sunday, March 9
Mrs. Emma J. Brown, for forty years a resident of this city, died at her home, 208 West 119th street, on Sunday, March 9, after a brief period of illness. She was in her seventy-eighth year.
Born in Dinwiddie County, Virginia, in 1852, "Grandmother Brown" as she was called by the young and those in the midstream of life, was one of those sterling characters whose intellectual history furnishes a mental memoir. Born at the time when the opportunity to learn to read and to write was denied members of our race, yet in spite of that, and in spite of the fact that she never attended any school in her life, she mastered these two simple arts by personal perseverance.
But in acquiring these accomplishments, she was not not satisfied to use them in a commonplace way, especially in reading. Classical literature, as well as poetry, was a sort of hobby with her. She was just as much at home in the works of Shakespeare and Longfellow as she was in the reading of current events and modern poetry. Aside from her taste for those things, she was a strong proponent of the preface, that one should unto unto others as one should be done by. She practiced and explained that philosophy so religiously that those who came into contact with he gave her the title of 'Grandmother.'
During the two score years she lived in New York, she made her home, up to a year ago, with her son, Sylvester Brown, a well-known fraternal and churchman in Harlem at 60 West 139th street. The past year or so she had made her home with several of her grandchildren at the address on 119th street, New York City, which place she died. She leaves to mourn her passing, one son, two grandons and three granddaughters whom is the wife of Dr. Oma H. Price, a praising physician of Harlem. Funeral rites for the deceased were held from the home on Wednesday, March 12, and were conducted by Rev. W, P. Hayes and Rev. Abner. Brown of this city and Rev. Robert Tabb of Philadelphia Burial was in Woodland Cemetery.
Mrs. Mamie Adams Dead
Mrs. Manie Adams, 145 West 135th street, died on Tuesday evening, March 4, and was buried March 7, from Grace Congregational Church, the Rev. A. C. Carigner, pastor, officiating. She was an original member of the old Harlem church, a deaconess, a member of the Ladies' Progressive Club, and of the Bermuda Benevolent Association, which latter organization held its ritualistic service at the funeral.
Resolutions were read by Mrs. Elizabeth H. Davis for the deaconsess: Mrs. Nettie Terry, president for the club. The full choir sang with Hugo Bormn at the organ.
New York Benefits For Cardinal Gibbons School

Daniel is president.
The offer for this benefit came voluntarily and spontaneously from Mr. Hayes, through his manager, Dr. Wm. H. Brennan, to Father John LaFarge, S. J., associate editor of the national Catholic weekly, America, who is a member of the institutes and actively interested in the school for Negro children without regard to denominational affiliation.

BROOKLYN LAWYER DISBARRED OVER ESTATE FUNDS
Samuel F. Edmead of 40 Claver place, Brooklyn, who has been practising for many years is a lawyer was disbarred Saturday by the Appellate Division. A report by official Referee Russell Benedict recommended that this course be taken. Referee Benedict said that Edmead had been adjudged in contempt of court by Surrogate Wingate and finned $8,250 and had sought to avoid paying the money by dictatory tactics and appeals. The money represented proceeds from the sale of rea lestate belonging to the estate of Hannah E. Taylor whose administrators Edmead represented. After the sale, it was alleged, the checks representing the sale price were endorsed over to Edmead and the Shoobra Palace Realty Corporation of which he was president.
At the time of the hearing in the Surrogate's Court, it was alleged, Edmard said the transfer of the money merely represented an investment of the estate funds, and that he would return it with 6 per cent of the money. He said that in reality Edmard had misappropriated the money.

THROWN IN BAY FOR REFUSING TO PAY TAXI CHARGE
Shipmate, Angered At Refusal, Tosses Companion Overboard
Because his shipmate, Howard Trottman, refused to pay his share of a 95 cents taxicab bill, Ike Keaton, a deckhand, threw him in the bay on Monday night, March 10, and now Keaton is held on a charge of homicide, as Trottman was drowned. Both men are from Norfolk, Va.
The two sailors were members of the crew of the steamship Baldrock of the Eastern Transportation Go which is tied up at the foot of Thirty-fourth street, Brooklyn. They came ashore that night and, after celebrating their shore leave sailor fashion, they hailed taxicab at Third avenue and Sackett street about 2 a.m. according to the police.
Would Not Pay Half.
When the cab reached dock, the bill was 95 cents. Keaton paid his half, but for some reason Trottman refused to contribute his share. There was a quarrel. At its height Keaton picked his companion up and after poising him above his head hurled him into the water, the police, say.
Trottman failed to appear. Police were summoned and Emergency Squad, 11 grappled for more than three hours before the body was recovered. Detective Edward Fitzgerald arrested Keaton on the homicide charge.

CARDUI HELPS WOMEN TO HEALTH
ASKING ARDEN DECREE, DOCTOR GOES TO PRISON Swore Had Not Seen Wife In 5 Years, But Judge Presents Her To Him
Dr. Curtis T. Skeete, physician of Freeport, Long Island, was sentenced to 10 days in Raymond Street 'Jail' and fined $200 after he was adjudged in contempt of court by Supreme Court Justice Dunne in Brooklyn on Wednesday, March 12.
Thus came to a dramatic end the Enoch Arden decree planned by Dr. Skeete against his wife; Mrs. Mabel Skeete of 951 Lafayette avenue; Brooklyn, for a dissolution of their marriage.
The physicians applied for a dissolution of his marriage under the law which provides for such action if one party has been missing for a certain period, and the allied forts at location, and is therefore counted, as legally dead.
Dr. Skeete alleged that he had not seen or communication with his wife in more than five years. They separated in 1921. Mrs. Skeete heard of the proceedings and communicated with Justice Dunne. She also gave him a letter her husband had written to her suggesting that they be divorced.
When Dr. Skeete told the court he did not know where his wife was, Justice Dunne said, "Well, I'll introduce you" and called the missing wife to the stand.
Mrs. Skeete took the stand and said she had communicated with her husband by letter within the last two years, and had also met him face to face. She produced a letter purporting to have been written by him. And when Dr. Skeete admitted the handwriting to be his, Justice Dunne stopped the proceedings and with some anger ordered Dr. Skeete committed to jail and fined him $200.
Justice Dunne said he would bring the matter to the attention of the District Attorney's office for prosecution on purrury charges.
Brooklyn Man Leaves Estate to Wife's Niece
The will of the late James E. Jarvis was offered for probate in the Surgegate's Court on March 12. The estate is valued at $7,000. The entire estate is left to Miss Bertha Meadows. Jarvis, who lived at 628 Herkimer street, died November 2, after a long period of illness. He was, survived by a sister, Diana Stevenson, of Antigua, B.W. L. Some of the daily papers stated that the estate was left to a "stranger"; some stated that it was left to a friend. Investigation by an Age representative reveals the fact that Miss Meadows is the niece of the late Mrs. Jennie Jarvis, the wife of James Jarvis, and was regarded as one of the family.
Jarvis came here some years ago from the West Indies. Several years ago his wife, who was a native of Virginia, died. Since then he was in poor health. During all that time Miss Meadows, until his gdeath, waited upon him. Hence it would appear that it was a member of the family that he left his estate to, and not to a 'stranger' as the *Brooklyn Eagle* reports. The estate includes the premises at 628 Herkimer street in real property, and $500 in personal property. There is also real estate holdings at Dearing, Va., the home of the late Mrs. Jarvis and Miss Meadows, her niece.

The presence of a Negro Representative in Congress seems to have an indirect effect in curbing the expression of intolerance and racial hatred on the part of certain Representatives from the Southland, who could only justify their election to their constituents by some such exhibition of demagogery. Probably these Congressmen do not realize the fact themselves, but since Oscar DePriest has had a seat in the House of Representatives, we have heard little or nothing of the various fool schemes introduced by the gentleman from Texas or South Carolina, to discriminate against the Negro in some form or another.
A favorite variety of this form of legislation was a bill to introduce jimcrow cars in the District of Columbia; another to repeal the Fourteenth and Fifteenth amendments to the Constitution; or still another to erect a monument to the "Colored Mammy" or the "Good Nigger" in some part of the National Capital. All such legislation, tending to degrade the Negro and keep him from attaining the level of American citizenship, was supposed to commend the proposer to the favor of the ignorant and intolerant voters in the white primary of his home state and thus give him a further lease of life in Washington.
DISCRIMINATIONS IN INSURANCE
The study of insurance discriminations printed in last week's issue of The Age brought out, some long standing differences made in the classes of policies issued to colored and white risks. The practice of such discriminations is not any new policy, but it has prevailed in one form or another ever since white insurance companies began to insure colored risks. Certain differences and discriminations obtain with white risks but are based on such pertinent facts as occupation and habits of the risk and the health history of his antecedents. But in dealing with Negro applicants, most insurance companies put all of the race in one class, without allowance for health history or conditions of living.
Whether the presence of one of the darker race in the halls of Congress, with the privilege of the floor to talk back, has had the effect of showing up the futility and ridiculous side of such propositions, we have not heard from them in the present session. The unreconstructed Congressmen from the South have confined their protest to such childish gestures as refusing to occupy an office adjoining Mr. DePriest, or declining to serve on the same committee with him, which they were allowed to do without the slightest objection. Even the unspeakable Senator Heflin from Alabama, at the other end of the Capitol, has slowed down to a slow dribble of protest against mixed marriages as his latest contribution to inciting racial strife. But then he has other things to occupy his attention in endeavoring to hold his seat, despite the fact that he has been read out of the Democratic primary.
It is this discrimination solely on account of color, without allowance for other factors affecting health and longevity, that constitutes the grave injustice exercised in dealing with colored risks. Some forty years ago, when some of the larger companies first began to allow their agents to solicit risks among Negroes, it was carefully explained to one applicant that the company in question was issuing policies only to carefully selected risks, and mostly on the endowment plan for twenty years or less. What was not stated was that the premiums on such policies were loaded by the addition of an extra amount to cover the supposed hazzard incurred, by this experiment. As such policies provided for the return of the full amount of the premiums paid in, upon the maturity of the policy, the insured party was protected to that extent.
This subsidence of Southern denunciation and abuse of the Negro in Congress may be counted a by-product of the presence on the floor of a stalwart and able Representative of the race, alert and ready to resent such aspersions. Of unfinching courage and able to hold his own in debate his presence may have had a wholesome effect in restraining the public exhibition of intolerance that has hitherto characterized many of the Southern members. If so, he is entitled to credit for this indirect benefit resulting from his presence in Congress, for the exhibition of intolerance reflected both upon the speakers and the body that endured it often without protest.
The business of life insurance is based upon actuarial tables which are supposed to determine the possible mortality in every thousand people at various ages. This mortality is however modified by the living habits and health antecedents of the individual. Hence, one individual according to the table may have a greater expectation of life than another of the same age, because of better living habits and a stronger physical constitution. All these factors have to be considered in the writing of insurance and modify the rate of premiums and the conditions of the policies. It is the failure to make any, differentiations in the classification of colored risks that constitutes a real grievance against the policy of most white insurance companies.
PQSSIBILITIES OF THE MOTON
COMMITTEE.
With the return of President Hoover's Commission to Haiti, after it has provided for the transfer of the government back into the hands of its people, an important part of the rehabilitation of the republic would seem to be on the way toward performance. President Bormo, after some hesitation, it is reported, has agreed to the naming of Eugene Roy, a Haitian banker, as provisional President, at the expiration of his term of office. Mr. Roy is said to be acceptable to all parties, he having never been in politics and his choice has been approved by President Hoover and the State Department.
Another grievance is the fact that these companies offer no opportunities, for colored agents, with one or two exceptional cases. This discrimination sometimes works to the disadvantage of the company soliciting colored risks, because of the inability of the white agent to select the best quality of risks. The fact that the Metropolitan Company despite this discrimination, has been able to secure such a large number of colored risks is due to its plan of industrial insurance, based on small payments to collectors at frequent intervals. This plan is more convenient for wage earners and 'people' of small means because it requires no great
This result was not brought about, however, until the advisory power of the commission had been increased by the conferring upon them by President Hoover of unlimited administrative power, to persecde all American officials in Haiti in the settlement of the political problem. When Mr. Roy assumes office on May 15, he will be pledged to arrange for the earliest possible election of a legislature to choose a permanent President, who, when elected, will be recognized by the United States. The withdrawal of the American marines is not looked for until a permanent government is installed and

outlay, as in the case of an ordinary policy with annual or semi-annual payments: The worst thing about the discrimination of most of the white companies accepting colored risks is the deception practised by many of the agents in writing such risks, and misleading the insured as to the character of the policy issued. It is often not until too late, that the insured or his beneficiaries find that the policy contains restrictions and drawbacks that materially reduce the value of the benefit. It is because of these discriminations that the colored companies now in the field should find their strongest argument to induce eligible risks to become policy holders. Some of these companies have been in business long enough to determine whether the hazards of writing policies for colored risks is any greater than for white risks, as the white insurance experts have naftainted. The management of these companies is regulated by the insurance officials of the various states where they do business; and these officials are not likely to permit them to indulge in unsafe practices. It is up to our insurance companies to demonstrate that colored risks can be taken on the same basis as white risks. In doing this they deserve the support of all members of the race, as the most practical protest against insurance discrimination.
CONTINUATION SCHOOLS

nimation schools as part of the po-
lol system has not proved satisfac-
tive expressions of many of the stu-

The practical working of the plan of continuation schools as part of the public school-system has not proved satisfactory, if the expressions of many of the students and their employers are to be regarded. Even the educators themselves are divided as to the benefits to be derived from them. A number of bills have been introduced at Albany for the modification of the law, which has in many cases caused hardships to some of the pupils. The main trouble with these schools, as described by Arthur S. Somers, Brooklyn members of the Board of Education, is that they are "blind alley" schools, which prepare students neither for trades nor for institutions of higher learning.
The Superintendent of Schools, Dr O'Shea, is in favor of reducing the continuation school attendance age from seventeen to sixteen. He contended that an education obtained at an evening school would be of more value to the students. Mr. Somers has urged the school board to curtail the construction of more high school buildings, on the ground that the city has about reached the saturation point in this direction. The prevalence of what were styled "misfits" in the academic schools was deplored, and the necessity of making some provision for the training of those pupils who had no aptitude for academic work was suggested.
Here is where the necessity for vocational training or vocational guidance comes in to provide for those pupils who are not apt at book learning but who can do things with their hands. In many homes the economic situation is such, that unless the school children are capable of absorbing and profiting by higher education, it is waste of time and money to endeavor to give them academic training. If they can be prepared to pursue some gainful occupation for which they are naturally adapted, they will be better contented and more likely to turn out good citizens. To determine the best course to pursue with such students requires expert observation and individual study of their qualifications. It is proposed that some plan be worked out by the school authorities to organize schools for the vocationally-minded children of the city, who are not benefitted by their attendance in the academic and commercial secondary schools.
The disposition to adapt the public school system to the needs of the children, rather than to continue to force all types of pupils into one standardized scheme of education, is indicative of the advanced ideas current among modern educators. While the public schools do good work in giving the children of New York the advantage of elementary education, there is always room for improvement in the development of that system and its adaptation to meet the future needs of the children.
A FORMER SENATOR RECALLED
American relations with it have been established on a new basis. The committee headed by Dr. Moton, to investigate the educational needs of Haiti, according to report, is not to sail for a month yet. Manifestly, it could not well enter upon its work until the political situation was settled. Its aims are entirely independent of the political commission and its work will require more time and consideration. When it is considered that this committee has to map out a comprehensive program of education to fit the needs of the masses of the people and which will enable them to advance economically as well as educationally, the importance of its task will be appreciated.
A program to meet the needs of the people must bear in mind the necessity of preparing them to assume the duties and responsibilities of citizenship in order to make the republican form of government function as a reality, instead of being merely the mask for a dictatorship. Republican institutions among the Latin-American nations have been hampered in their development by the lack of elementary education, among the masses of the people. The masses were not educated to vote as citizens, but when the ruling classes decided that a change of government was necessary, the peasants were impressed as soldiers or revolutionists to fight on either side that his fate might decide. After the conflict was over, if he survived, he might go back to his farm and labor, until the next revolution.
The only way of changing all this and making the people who till the soil and form the backbone of the country, a factor in their own government is to give them education. The kind of education that will make them better farmers and better citizens. It is no easy task that lies before Dr. Moton and his associates, but it is one that will call forth their best efforts in view of the possibilities that it involves in the future of the Haitian people.
DISCRIMINATIONS IN INSURANCE
ding the issue. It may be argued that as the Democrats already have earned the reputation of being the wet party, it is too late for Republicans to compete with them for the wet vote. But there remains a possibility of an entirely different sort of alignment, if both parties declare against prohibition as it now prevails. Normal partisans will support one or the other party on other issues, thus taking prohibition out of politics to that extent.
The fanatical prohibitionists, led by the Anti-Saloon League and other paid advocates of prohibition, will have to run
COMMENTS BY THE AGE EDITORS ON SAYINGS OF OTHER EDITORS
A letter signed by Mrs. Florida Ruffin Ridley, president of a patriotic organization, appeared in the Boston Chronicle, commending Governor Allen of Massachusetts in the following terms:
The Society of the Descendants of Early New England Negroes would like through your paper, to publicly commend Governor Frank G. Allen for his spirited protest against the action of the U. S. War Department in segregating colored Gold Star Mothers on the proposed pilgrimage to France.
It is appropriate that a protest should come from Massachusetts and that through its government, the old Bay State should declare itself as still true to its traditions.
The offense offered the colored moths by the War Department, is slight compared to the offense given to the principles of decency, of democracy and of Christianity, besides, there is the offense to those who demand such segregation, implying as the order does, that their claims to superiority need physical protection. In its very pettyness, the order is an offense against everything. America is supposed to stand for and will attract international attention and criticism. This society representing, as it does Negroes who have served this country from the days of its foundation puts itself on record with this statement.
By a curious coincidence the same issue of the Christicle had an editorial on Crispus Attucks, which concluded with the statement:
"Very fittingly was the memory of Crispus Attucks, the first to die in the cause of freedom in America, commemorated in the Hub of the Bay State with the presence of Mayor James M. Curley and others at the exercises."
Noting: the political machinations of Georgia lilyhites, the Savannah Journal said:
It is reported that a meeting was held in Hawkinsville last week by a group of lily whites, and plans were formulated to take complete control of the approaching Republican State Convention, and from thence forward manipulate, the machinery of the party in Georgia. The report gave the names of several men in different sections of middle Georgia, who heretofore have been unknown quantities in the annals of the G. O. P., and it is interesting to note that the main thing definitely decided upon was to overthrow the Negro. Some of the leaders of this scheme were recently appointed census directors in their respective districts, and instead of going about their business with a desire to perform their duty in fairness and justice by making some provision to appoint a few Negroes to serve as numerators, they left their post of duty to participate in perfecting an organization to deny every colored man and woman, no matter how capable, from having a voice in the party which was founded upon the principle of "equal rights to all."
We are not surprised at this brazen attempt to force the Negro out of the party, but the thing that puzzles us is that those who are, leading the movement are the recipients of political favors from Washington, and the question arises—Are they carrying out orders from their superior officers? We have been suspicious of some of the leaders in Washington for some time with reference to their attitude toward our group, and this latest development seems to confirm our conviction that we are doomed in perdition, politically, if the Hoover administration is our, only hope, for salvation.
This proposed elimination of black Republicans as a political factor is planned, despite the fact that they have been responsible for keeping the party alive in Georgia for more than a generation.
Referring to the glamour of the "Carnival Season" in New Orleans, the Louisiana Weekly of that city said:
The Carnival season is here with all of its beauteous decorations and multitudes of visitors from every corner of the globe. This season means gaiety. The visitors are seeking pleasure. They will find it beautiful. New Orleans is noted for its beauty and the many ways of entertaining.
To the outsider within our gates everything appears to be as a smooth running piece of machinery, but to us who tell here daily for our bread, can see deeper than the Carnival venues of good times. Many members of the group will don gay costumes and add their voices and pres
ticket of their own. In this attempt to continue the present chaotic conditions, they will undoubtedly command the support of the bootlegging and racketeering industries, which have grown powerful under prohibition as it is now enforced. Such a logical division of votes might help to restore normal conditions within Republican ranks and relieve the party of the paralyzing effect of trying to embrace two conflicting policies,
A straightforward policy, under straightforward leaders like Mr. Wadsworth, is what New York Republicans need to restore the confidence of the voters.
ence to' the gaieties, while, at the same moment something that is a vital necessity is being left undone. Too long has the group pursued Bacchus, while honest toil should have been the everlasting keynote. Carnival with its thin veneer of pleasure soon passes, and with it goes the hard-earned cash of the weak-minded members of our group.
Evidently the Louisiana editor had forebodings of the penitential season of Lent, with saddened 'reflections upon the brief period of gaiety that preceded it. The old law still prevails, that those who dance must pay the piper.
Citing an instance of excellent police work in the rescue of a kidnapped man and the arrest of several suspects, the St. Louis Argus said:
It looked to us almost providential that at a time when the Negroes' abilities and capabilities as police officers were being hardest assailed, Sergeant Cooper and his men came forward and demonstrated their ability and thereby vindicated the race along this particular line. We make this complaint because the Negroes have not been given a square deal in connection with the police department. We have not only been denied the privilege of qualifying to become police officers, but such places as janitors, elevator operators, chauffeurs and helpers have been denied us.
Of course, we feel the present situation very keenly because we had faith in Governor Caulfield that, in appointing his board of police commissioners, he would select men who are big enough, and courageous enough to give every man a square deal regardless of race or creed. But we regret to say that we have been sadly disappointed with the conduct of the present board toward the colored people.
Just what action, if any, commendatory, the commissioners will take toward these colored officers, we do not know. No one can deny it as being good work at least. But the truth of the matter is, it was superior work. With all of their advantages, it is doubtful whether the white officers would have ever cleared up the case in such a spectacular way. Had white officers played the important part in this case as did the Negro officers, there is hardly room for even speculation as to what the Board of Police Commissioners would do for them at its next meeting.
-Work of the kind specified along police lines, should not fail to be credited to the officers performing it, and raise their status both with their superior officers and the general public.

Discussing the obligations, of "Busses as Common Carriers," the Houston Informer referred to a decision handed down recently by the North Carolina Supreme Court, in which it was held that motor busses are common carriers and must provide accommodations for Negro passengers. It continued:
"This opinion strengthens the position assumed by The Informer when motor-busses first began to operate extensively in Southern states, and the decision of the highest legal tribunal in the Tar Heel State should have a far-reaching effect.
Not that Negroes were or are desirous of riding in busses where they are not wanted or desired, but no common carrier, employing the highways made possible by the taxes of all the people, even though the bus corporation is a private concern, has a right to refuse to provide accommodations for all citizens and prospective passengers, regardless of color, creed or class.
That busses are common carriers has long been the contention of The Informer, and Texas will do well to study the decision of the North Carolina Supreme Court, for several of the bus lines in this state absolutely refuse to carry colored passengers.
No common carrier—train, bus street car or whatnot—has any right to operate which refuses to haul colored passengers, for the Negro is just as much of an American citizen as any other racial group, in our polyglypop population and, in some instances, the Negro is more of an American citizen than many others enjoying and exercising all the rights and prerogatives warranted to citizens of this republic.
A colored traveler in certain parts of the South recently stated that he found less discrimination on the bus lines he encountered than in other modes of conveyance.
Those who begin another birthyear on March 22 should try to be as patient and thoughtful as possible in every respect. The marriage partner and relatives of the opposite sex will cause some worry and concern, and it is quite possible that some 'changes' will be made in the domestic circle. Romance will not bring much happiness. The people of today will be able to think to advantage if they try. New plans will not turn out well. The health should be guarded.
March 23 brings some gain through mental vocations, and in the professions to the people of today in this birthyear. Those who can use patience and good judgment will be quite able to come out ahead in this birthyear. Those who are married will fool some rather inharmonious vibrations, and will need to use the utmost patience with the marriage partner. Romance is not to be considered. The year is very good for business and employment.
March 24 begins a birthyear that will bring success to those who are already employed, or established in business. It is not worth while to go to great expense to begin new plans and ideas. Money that is loaded to the opposite sex is money lost. Those who are in business should guard against fire and theft, and those who work around machinery should be very careful to avoid accidents. This can be a very good year.
The birthyear for March 25 promises a renewal of romantic ties with a loved one. The year will be very good from a financial point of view, and for study, but it does seem as if care should be used in marriage and romance to avoid unhappiness in the future. Some very important family changes are indicated. The birthyear can be very good. The help of a very influential friend is promised, and care should be taken not to antagonize this friend.
Those who begin a birthyear on March 26 will need to guard the

development of the race, the Afroco-

N. G., discussed as follows:
Negroes who have money to invest could render the race an inestimable service by using it in a way to increase employment for members of the race. This can be done by creating and aiding Negro business enterprises. The economic advancement along other lines of development, and those of the race, who have been blessed financially should try to find ways of investing their money so that their investments will not only be profitable to themselves, but will open up avenues for the unemployed of the race. Hundreds of trained young Negro men and women go from high schools and colleges every year only to find practically all avenues of employment paying a living wage closed. Neither the Negro race nor any other race can hope to develop the best type of citizens without providing ample opportunities, for legitimate employment.

health, and to avoid extravagance and debt. Those who are employed should try to hold the jobs, their friends should be thoughtfully considered, as some deception will come from one who is thought to be friend. Old and tired friends are best. The money should be invested in a very reliable bank, and through friends. The people of a day do not need to let discourage worry them, but should hold the faith that is their birth right. The coming birthyear for March 27 promises much success and honor to those who can be straight forward in every respect. Extra vagance is to be avoided. The who do things that will bring honor, and unhappiness have no else to 'blame', for the vibration promise honor and happiness to the who will be honest in all things. Romance should be very carefully considered, and those who are mired will need to use patience as very good judgment with the marriage partner.
March 28 certainly begins a busy year that promises success and hope or to those who can think carefully and do not try to be too abrupt an impatient. There is need to be very careful around machinery, and a travel, and to avoid fever and a health. Those who are employees should try to hold on, and those who are in business will need to tight and make no heavy financial outlay, but rather save the money tide over the depression that will come.

Refuge Church of Christ
The morning worship Sunday morning carried with it a large audience, whose hearts were inspired at the sincere preaching' of the pastor. The Name of the sincerity members been deeply imbbed in the hearts of the many visitors and strangers that frequent the church from time to time.
A distinctive feature of the church, the prayer life of its members. Prayer services are held three times every day, morning, noon and evening. These prayer services are in a great measure largely responsible for the phenomenal growth of the church.
The main auditorium of the church is filled twice on Sundays, at the morning and evening services, and there is at the evening services. Standing room is hardly available.
At last Sunday's services, the pastor preached very effectively. The singing prior to the evening services was illuminating to the soul and there are many who come to church with us because the inspiring singing of the congregation.
The echo of the earnest preaching of the pastor and the beautiful singing of the evening choir has found a soft and tender spot in the hearts of many, and we are grateful to them for their cheerful welcome awaits all strangers and visitors who are looking for something that will be more to them than all the riches of the earth and that is life eternal.
Our pastor and leader, Bishop Wilson, has done a wonderful work of vicinity of the church, but in various parts of America in establishing churches and missions, and because of this we are indeed glad to have such an example as our leader.

The theme of this wonderful sermon was having personal contact by cultivating spiritual knowledge and surrendering the heart to God. The sermon was a solo excellently rendered by Mr. Duncan, a member of the choir.
The Red Cross Unit of Mt. Olivet, which gave such an excellent, high class fashion revue on January 30, presented to the church the sermon.

At the eight o'clock service the church was crowded to capacity to hear the pastor speak the subject, "What's Wrong With Harlen?" Rey Nichols took his text from the book of Titus, based upon right living. After a brief explanation he pointed out ten calls in the life of Harlen and then offered a care for three all.
This remedy says Rey Nichols is true concession to the grieving. He recommends that we of Christ and upright Christian go back to the paths of our fathers and the mothers. Five person pointed the church and the day's offerings was very good.

Paradise Baptist Church
Sunday morning the pastor, Rev H W Stanley, expounded a very magnanimous discourse: "Suffer for Christ (And James 2.12), shown us, as the beautiful cause of the cause of Christ. This well directed career illustrates of how great tool and humiliating failure we must endure for the cause of our Satourn.
In the evening, Rev H W Stanley preached another illustration of the "Blood on the Post." (Exodus 12.7), where in he showed what the value of having the sign of the blood on the door post was to the children of Israel, in that wherever the angel of death found the sign of blood the angels escaped the house of the angels.
In interpretation to this he put natural the blood of the Lamb as that flowing from the crumbs. He encouraged us that if we accept the sacrifice and knowledge it, we shall, how even the cause of the cause of Christ could pass unimpaired to the world we live with us Rev H.

Last Sunday morning the services were conducted by the Junior Choir, with its large choir, ushers, stewards and stewardess in attendance, under the direction of Mrs. Minie Jackson. The pastor Rev. John W. Robinson preached from 2nd Kings 2:9.
He stated that the church provide places where the children may play rather than, send them often are influenced to lead a life crime. He further said that parents who do not properly guard their children against a life of crime are guilty of cruelty to others. He said that often our children are denied the encouragement of the older people. He told a visit to one of our city institutions and said that there is great need of an institution to delentour youngs who they are released from the city institutions and have no one to act as, their guardians and that often youths whose time have expired are kept in institution because no relative or guardian he found to take charge of them.
He informed the congregation of the large number of activities in the St. Mark's Community House where our children are given wholesome amusement and undesirable companions. Rev. Bolden, assistant pastor, preached at the evening service.
St. Cyprian's Chapel
The preacher at our morning service was the vicar, Rev. John Wesley Johnson. The text was Second-Thessalonians, fourth subject for verse. The subject is Sanctuaries. One of the leading points brought out was the forcing of the Communist Party on this and other countries by a few money, wealth of the countries and after so doing, tried to make the poorer people, poorer than ever, and on Sundays, these same men sat in the front pews of the churches and tried through their even control the Church of God. In the afternoon there were held special classes in preparation for the confirmation which is to be held Sunday evening, May 4, 1930. On Friday evening, March 21 there will be held a sacred cantata "The Crucifixion", to be sung by the Philharmonic Club of the Nixon Music School of Harlem, under direction of A, Eugene
The preacher at the evening services was the Rev. T. W. E. Midenan. The Cooked Dramatic Club of St. Cyprus's Church under direction of the Rev. T. W. E.

Preacher for Wednesday evening, March 19th will be the Rev. Berry of Newark, formerly the parish priest. Instruction classes for confirmation are held during the week. Adults, Wednesdays at 9 p. m.; children Fridays at 4 p. m.
St. Martin's Chapel
"Inner Consolation" was the subject of the theme chosen last Sunday morning by the Rev. John H. Johnson, year of St. Martin's Shape, 1742. It was based on the text as recorded in the 8th verse of the 17th Chapter of the Gospel according to St. Matthew: "This is my beloved Son in whom I am well pleased; hear ye Hum." "According to the Scriptures, the beautiful words he spoken by the Gospels referred to Rev. Johnson, in part." The occasion was on the Mount of Transfiguration. Jesus revealed His supernatural majesty to Peter, James and John. There are many interpretations put upon this miracle. Some people doubt its authenticity, others doubt its authenticity because they cannot understand it. But to those of us who have faith and realize that the world is full of things which cannot be explained, it means that Jesus revealed himself. In inner consolation "Solace for the days of trial during His crucifixion."
"May this church minister to
tell that receive their inner con-
solation from communion with
God. I am in the season when
Church should come near to us.
And from this contact, we will
receive our inner consolation for the
past. We will be blessed and
has said, 'Men who have seen such
wonderful things can never quite
forget what they have learned.'"
THE material contrast between the structures with which the nation is built is astonishing. An ancient plant is sufficiently astounding to about. But satisfactory and encouraging as this is. It is a magnificent monument and an important symbol of the nation and annual turning out of two or three hundred young women for lives useful to themselves and their families is of course important. It is a monument of the will and sought to do. His purpose was to radiate from a center like that of the bony but ever living truth which must form the foundation of the nation.

quietly opened the door and enter-
ed: Seven Negroes, four men and
three women, were sitting at a card
table and two, Merrick and_Bil-
Jups, were walking about the room.
“Hands up, everybody!" shouted
Anderson who was side by side with
Thigpen. Allin the room complied
yuh the order. except Billups, who
made a dive,for the bedroom where
he drew his revolver,
Ave reached the door, he turned
to shoot, Patrolman Thigpen dived
and tackled hum. The pistol, ex-
Ploded, seared Thigpen’s cheek with
the fire, and lodged a bullet in An-
derson’s righ tlung. The wound
was fatal to the sergeant but as he
ell back over the table his revolv-
er spoke three times and every bul-
41 reacked Billups.
Billups, despite his wounds, dash-
ed down the stairs with Thigpen
after him, As they ran down the
steps, Thigpen fired six shots, all
lodging in Billup's body. As’ the
gunman stumbled, the Negro. police
officer jumped an him and knocked
him unconscious, “> ~.
In the meantime Merrick tried to

JAMES L. PERKINS
James L. Perkins Now Managing Undertaking Parlor For Veal Estate
James L. Perkins, who has been employed by Mrs. Lela Veal, wife of the late, James Veal, to manage the undertaking and embalming establishment of the James Veal Estate, 2492 Seventh avenue, is a fair example of what a man can do who has the will to. He is also an example of the old saying that opportune comes to him who prepares for it. For nine or more years, Mr. Perkins has worked in the Pullman service as a porter. Several years ago, he decided that his talents could be better employed. So following this mind, he picked the field of undertaking and embalming as one in which he could best use his skills. There were, however, certain conditions that had to be considered.
First, he had a family to support. Secondly, his employment had to be taken into account. The big question was how could he maintain his family, remain in the Pullman service, and the necessary training of a mortician. He decided, as he recently told a friend, that the answer lay in: "where a moment is a will there is a way." Every spare moment he got, during his off hour on one of the age guard status of the technical part of the profession. After two years of such constant application, he passed the New York Underattenders' License Board with a 90 percent rating. It was somewhat of a strange coincidence that the man who encouraged him most to enter this field should be Dr William Veal, brother of the late James Veal. Aside from his skill as a mortician, a pleasing personality and an energetic disposition, Mr. Perkins, who is a native of Georgia, is identified with the social and fraternal organizations.
These are: 32nd Degree Scottish Rite Masons and auxiliaries, Golden Fleece Lodge of Old Fellow; Knights of Pythia, Manhattan Lodge of Elks, 45; Zanzibar Council of United States of Georgia; 101 Club, Pulham Porters A. & S. Club; A. P Church Club, and a member of Abyssinian Baptist Church.

AMONG PULLMAN EMPLOYEES
---
THINGS SEEN, HEARD AND DONE AMONG PULLMAN EMPLOYEES
THE STANDARDIZED AGE
We say if it is the machine age, which is quite true, but it is even more than that; it is the standardized age. We have standardized our life to such a degree that standardization has entered every field of labor. Even the servant field is confronted with the octopus. The man in search of a job today will not only find that the machine has made work less plentiful but he will discover that this work has become more exacting.
For example, the two-hundred if she could.
Enjoying a certain degree of acquaintance with some of the skillman employment agents, the writer told the circumstances of the lady to one of these, with the added comment that he thought she would make a good maid. "Sorry," said the agent; "we are not employing any maids at present. Have more than we need just now." As an afterthought, he asked, "What would you say the lady, weighed?" "Oh, about one hundred and fifty pounds," was the answer. The agent, "we are not employing any applicant for maid who weighs over one hundred and thirty-seven pounds. The applicant over that weight does not conform with the type of maid which the company now requires." "This makes the statement by Mr. Pinker, the dinner, given recently his honor in Jersey City, a sort of truism."
Mr. Parker said that the man or woman who had to work for his or her living and had a job, should guard and nourish it as he or she would a jewel. From the way in which we have standardized things, the worker who fails to appreciate the work he does he goes job seeking. He will find that even a promoter abdomen may be an obstacle to his employment. For this is the standardized age as well as the machine age.
Mott Haven Yard News
Not since the memorable year of 1925 have the Stove Pipe Committee and the Whispering Toms around this vicinity been such fertile sources from which to acquire the gossip of what is taking place in the district of the town to be during the past few weeks. Innocently enough perhaps, the new Pullman boss has made this possible. The gossip centers around him.
Take, for instance, that little matter of the surprise dinner that was proposed by admiring employees of the district. The Whispering Toms go so it is to say that preparations for the affair had been all completed, when the word became current that the new boss had arrived. So, not being quite sure of the incoming event towards an event of this character, the entertainment was called off.
Then following that incident was the little circumstance in connection with the men who are to operate on the "Yankee Clipper," the fastest and finest parlor car train in America, which will be run behind the train in Boston by the New Haven Railroad. The Stove Pipe Committee says that, previous, to the advent of the present boss, the porters who were to operate on this deluxe flyer had been already selected. The matter of seniority, which usually prevails, and which is a working agreement between the porters and the managers, the meaning of runs, was to be disregarded. But several days after the new incumbent took charge, notices were posted that those who were eligible for service on the new train could make their bids.
Now, to what extent the coming of the new boss actually figured in the success of the jecture. Nevertheless, these agents of gossip attribute them to his arrival on the scene.
A member of the Porter's Grievance Committee in this district was seen leaving the monthly meeting of this body last Thursday, and on inquiry to how the committee was responding to his replei: "Wonderfully, the men are beginning to evince a healthy interest in the work of their local representatives. We had at our sessions today two porters who are the same as the man whose noticing he replei that could not be called 'hankerchief heals' by any stretch of the imagination. They were not there on charges, but merely came to make suggestions for the betterment of the porters and the servants of interest for the mutual benefit of all concerned.'
For example, the two-hundred pound cook is no longer the desire and pride of the kitchen. As a matter of fact, the housewife can't use her. The modern kitchenette will me permit her obese form. No more than a half-gallon of protruding gith wanted. His locomotion in the dining room interferes with the table linen. The overly tall chauffeur goes, from garage to garage trying to hid a less exacting employed, but the answer is invariably the same: "Your girth is against you." Even the dishwasher discovers that dishwashes keep him out of a job; he cannot reach the modern dish sink. And, for the scrub woman, she must be young and active. Time counts, and the building must be ready for the morning occupancy, with all traces of mop and broom missing.
So, when your friend, who is out of work, tells you that 'the mere fact of his height, or the simple matter of his little fat, is an obstacle to the job of height, take his word for it; he is telling you an honest truth.
The following case is an instance of this:
The man awoke one morning to find that he must enter some employment in which the work was steady, or if just, where he wouldn't always be laid off by the young man who was hardy at almost anything. He could cook a little, do valet work a little, was somewhat good at waiting, in fact, his abilities might be used in any capacity that didn't have a technical side to it.
A friend of his, himself a porter, commanded the young man to the Pullman service. The porter friend, the young man would not find any difficulty in finding employment here. Indeed, he appeared to be an ideal type for this class of work. He could cook, he could wait, and he could do valet work. These were three things in which he would need no training. A hurried call to the young man requiring either of these classes or service would find him a very competent person.
True, the employment policy of the Pullman service had changed somewhat in late years, regarding height, physical health, and, a few other things, being taller and could easily meet these requirements. Then, too, another thing would be favorable to his acceptance. His father had been a porter in the service prior to his death. Never had he known an applicant whose chances were high. But, alas, the porter had been on the job so long himself that he was unaware of what was going on in the service, although it had been going on all around him for the past five years. His friend's application was rejected. He was above the required weight.
One Pullman official was recently heard to say that the employment of Filipinos, at the time they were, was not due to any condition but the Pullman management's idea of trying out a type of waiter who would make a more pleasing appearance on course, he added the punitilic waiter. Of cars when the client happened at the time when the client timidities were being hurled at the company, so the management just let that opinion prevail.
Recently, this writer met a colored woman who was in search of work. She is the widow of a man who was well known in Harlem business circles at the time of his death. The widow declared that her circumstances required that she get employment immediately. She would like to secure it as a Pullman maid. Of 146th street, New York City, is the house guest of Mrs. JesiT Williams of 592 Columbus avenue. Mrs. Tiantan is enjoying herself immensely.
Mrs. Helen W. Holiday was so enthusi and pianist at the funeral of Jesse Harris of Hopedale street. Allison Maas. Mrs. King of the Southend is very sick in the Peter Brent Brigham Hospital. D. A. Brown of Greenwick Park has accepted a position with the Abbott Company. Mrs. Anna Moneal of St. Louis. Mrs. Bea has a visitation the city for the past week in business. A tea was given by Mrs. Samuel P. Harris and Mrs. Blanche Wilson last Sunday afternoon at 564 Columbia avenue. Those present were Mrs. Gertrude Chandler, Ruth Kinney, Jesse Harris, Myrle Dogan, and Mrs. West Medford and others.
Company, in capacity of maid during her trip to Mexico City with a special party of Raymond and Whitcomb tourists. The opportunity to serve the ladies of the family of the dean official of the Pullman station, by chance and not arrangement. The special party to which Mrs. Williams was maid arrived in the Mexican city while the Hungerford party was there. As the Pullman manager's private car was stationed in the same railroad terminal as the Raycomb and Whitcomb train she rendered maid services to Hungerford and daugherty well as the ladder of the tourist party. A pleasant feature of the opportunity to serve them, as expressed by mother and daughter, "was that it made them feel at home." Mrs. Williams, who has new returned to her run on the Pennsylvania's Broadway Limited, between New York and Chicago, was with the special party, which made time many places of interest in the South and Mexico were visited.
While the maids in this district regret hearing that Mr. Rittenhouse has left New York, yet they_welcome Mr. P. T. Ryan, the present superintendent, with the same Ace of sincerity that they felt on losing the former official. And, as one of the stars of this group recently said, efforts to make and keep the district 100 per cent will continue to be their service slogan.

Well our. old friend John D. Bannister, the travelling porter instructor from J. T. Ransom's office Washington, D. C., is with us again. If I banister in males named our young people because they love to hear him talk about service. While we preach service to our men, morning, noon and night, we feel that to have Mr. Bannister help us drive it in, we may accomplish that. We have the same time acquaint them with one of the grand old pillars who has had plenty of experience with the Pullman Company and to our mind never tires of trying td explain just now how thinks you can tell the travelling public successfully.
News has reached us that some of your porters running to Miami are getting so careless that they are leaving their hats in Miami. How come?
