Florida University Head Cites Life Of Booker T. Washington as One of Tolerance, Genius, Farsightedness Northern and Southern Friends of Tuskegee Institute, of Both Races, Attend Annual Observance of Founders Day at School (Special Staff Correspondence) Tuskegee Institute, great lesson we learn from Washington." This is the Tigert, president of the former United States Co who delivered the annual the Institute chapel here commemorating the birth us, farsightedness and to establish Tuskegee Institute youth in the heart of the Tuskegee Institute, Ala.—"Tolerance is the great lesson we learn from the life of Booker T. Washington." This is the statement of Dr. John J. Tigert, president of the University of Florida and former United States Commissioner of Education, who delivered the annual Founders Day address in the Institute chapel here Sunday afternoon, April 6, commemorating the birthday of the man whose genius, farsightedness and tolerance enabled him to establish Tuskegee Institute as a school for Negro youth in the heart of the Black Belt of the South. Certainly this is a lesson greatly needed at this time. In the period following the great war we have stressed a veritable Babel of clash-races classes and interests. The use of tolerance that has spread out the world and, which has washed our continent from coast to coast has, at times, almost overwhelmed the hopes of some of our people. It has caused me to wonder whether it met the Republic would break on the rocks of misunderstanding, inscrutance and hatred. A Great Saying. To my mind Washington never and a greater thing than this: "No can drag me down so low as to make me hate him." Is all of these throughout his many speech- and especially in his writings we and him paying tribute to the white man of the South. He made it a universal principle that all of his acts and utterances, wherever he might be, would be as welcome in Alabama or Virginia as in distant parts of the world." The speaker was introduced by Dr William Jay Schieffelin, chairman of board of trustees, who explained the character of the Founders Day observance and told of the moment Americans who have in the past delivered the address on this occasion stating that it was fitting that the leaders, in American life, should do honor to the memory of Baker T. Washington whose work reached out into many fields. Dr Robert R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute, presided. He welcomed the visitors and presented Dr. Schieffelin. Delegation From Maine Present. Adding to the cosmopolitan aspect of the audience which consisted of northern trustees and their guests, southern white friends, teachers and students in the Institute, and prominent Negro visitors was the presence of a party of 135 political and agricultural leaders of the State of Maine now visiting Alabama, who, accompanied, by 200 Montgomery and Tuskegee friends, sent the day at Tuskegee. Before this representative cross section of American life a distinguished southern told the story of a slave boy's life to international fame; evaluated the significance of that life to the Negro the nation and the world and pointed out the lessons to be learned from that life. Dr Tigert cited the careers of older men who had been slaves and who acquired heroic status in the world's history. Joseph, the dreamman, like these men, served in slaves. Moses, most distinguished of all lawgivers; Epictetus, philosopher and counselor to kings and monarchs; Toussaint L'Ouverture, liberator of black Haït, Washington, like these men, served in slaves, and like them he rose to a place of distinction. Reviewing the life of Tuskegee's bender, Dr. Tiger (squatted): "If history, coated in the 'memory' of many persons now living, did not trifle each incident; there would always be much doubt abroad as to whether these things really happened. If Boker Washington had been a century ago, no doubt the elusive 'debunkers' of history would already have shown the utter possibility of many of the events of his unparalleled rise from slavery to world prominence." Villes Prejudiced Against Work As a result of slavery the white man in the South developed an intention to work. Dr. Tigery stated. This principle has retarded the development of the South in countries was. We are just beginning to overcome the handicaps which have arced from this unfortunate condition and the South has waited for fifty years to get started on a real program of industrial development if people could have had it. We must lead us out of the (Continued on Seventh Page) Ala.—"Tolerance is the im the life of Booker T. the statement of Dr. John J.

Granady Have Withdrawn Resignations From Medical Staffs of Harlem Hospital A conference in which Mayor James J. Walker ordered Dr J. G William Greeff, Hospital Commissioner, and about forty deputy commissioners and divisional heads, to appear before him at the City Hall, and hear his ideas about the reorganization of city hospitals, disclosed that while the Mayor fully approved the recent changes at Harlem Hospital, in which some twenty-five physicians were ousted from the staff, he is determined that there shall be no taint of political favoritism in hospital matters. Dr. Greef declared he was in fullest cooperation with the Mayor's ideas, and accepted entire responsibility for keeping politics out of the hospitals. He declared the Mayor's ideals to be his, "not only because of my loyalty to him, but also because of a principle." My will, intention and wish are to serve him and the people of the City of New York without grievance by influence which should react on his administration." Conference At Hospital. At Harlem Hospital, it was reported that Dr John F. Comoris, president of the Medical Board on the hospital, and head of the Department of Surgery, had held a conference with representatives on the North Harlem Medical Association, of which Dr Charles C. Middleton is president, at which a more satisfactory understanding was reached as to Dr Comoris's attitude. Officers of the association declined to talk for publication, saying that the body had decided to that effect at its last meeting. But it has been learned from Deputy Commissioner of Hospitals James H. Fay, who is in charge of general administration, that on Monday, April 11, letters were received in his office from Drs. Peter Murray and J. L. W. Granady, both of 2588 Seventh avenue, who tendered their resignations, four weeks ago as members of the surgical and medical staff, respectively, of the hospital because of dissatisfaction with conditions, asking that their resignations be withdrawn, expressing a desire to continue serving Referred To Medical Board. Commissioner Fay explained that the letters of resignation had been referred to the Medical Board of Harlem Hospital for action, and that the letters of withdrawal had been sent along the same course. The Age has been informed from other sources that the resignations had not been acted upon, and that both Drs. Murray and Granady had continued in active service. An effort to reach Dr. Murray Tuesday morning was not successful, as he had left his office, but the office nurse said he "mig it" he reached at the hospital, as he usually went there. There was no reference in any of the reports as to the attitude of Dr Louis T. Wright, who has been named as secretary of the Medical Board, and around whom the sight first centered Dr. Wright was charged with an alliance with Civil Service Commissioner Ferdinand Q. Morton, head of the United Colored Democracy in Harlem, and that the recent changes, which placed nineteen Negro physicians on the hospital staff, were really distracted by Dr Wright and Mr Motton. Commissioner has declared that the matter now is in the hands of the Medical Board, but he had no knowledge as to when the Board would hold its next meeting. "When the Board does act, its recommendation is to be sent to Commissioner Greeff for final action. 3 Colored Women Named To Crime Prevention Bureau Of Police Dept Three women from Harlem are now on active duty as crime investigators in the Police Department following their appointments on Saturday by Police Commissioner Grover A. Whalen. They were among the first 25 of the 43 who took the examination and passed. Miss Marguerite Tillar, Araminta W. Anthony, and Anne W. Forrester were the new colored investigators. The latter was among the first three investigators in ranking. The new crime prevention bureau was recently established by Commissioner Grover Whalen as a department of the police department and the work of the investigators is expected to do much to prevent crime.

Early Morning Fire Drives Forty Scantily Clad Persons To Street Fireman Crawls Along Narrow Ledge to Rescue Man Trapped In Room on Top Floor Transit Commission On August Hecksher Gives Bus Transfer Point $30,000 To Fla. School disastrous fire, starting early Thursday morning, trapped three floors of the five-fory apartment house located at the southeast corner of 128th street and Seventh avenue, driving out eight families, numbering forty persons, scantily clad, to the streets, and placing in serious, proparity one of the tenants, Wychiffe Morgan, 41, of apartment 7. The man was trapped on the top floor, and his plight was not discovered until the other tenants had attained safety. Someone on the street saw Morgan appear at a fifth floor window and fall back. Fireman James J. Streaken of Hook and Ladder Company No. 30 went to the rescue. Crawled On Narrow Ledge. Streaken reached a foot-wide hedge and crawled along it for ten for twelve feet to the window where Morgan had been seen. He found the man unconscious and had to strap Morgan to his, Streaken's back. Then he got out of the window, to which he gutted his rope ladder, and began the descent. Before the fireman with his burden had gotten halfway to the ground it was discovered by onlookers that flames belching from the windows had set the ladder on fire. Streaken seemed not to be aware of this, however, and continued his Alderman Fred R. Moore has written the Transit Commission regarding doing away of making 125th street and Seventh avenue a transfer point for passengers using the Fifth Avenue line of buses, calling attention to the inconvenience and discomfort inflicted upon the passengers on inclement days, from rain, snow or sleet, waiting passengers being compelled to stand, sometimes, for five or ten minutes with no protection from the weather. Alderman Moore is in receipt of a reply, under date of April 5, from Chairman Wim Co. Fullen of the Transit Commission, advising that the Commission's Service Bureau has been directed to investigate the matter and that further information would be given. White Man Gets Death Sentence For Shooting Young Colored Gir New Orleans, La...For the first time in Louisiana's history, a white man has been convicted and sentenced to death for the murder of a colored person. Charles Gucrant, 27, a former policeman, was charged with shooting to death a fourteen year old girl, Hattie McCray, who worked as a waitress in a restaurant, and who repelled his advances. Her repulsion angered him and the shooting followed. descent, with flames licking at him from each window as he passed, and with smoke at times concealing him from the crowd. When he finally reached, the ground it was found at Morgan was so seriously burned as to necessitate his being taken to Harlem Hospital. Dennis Gibson Was Hero. Another hero of the occasion was Dennis Gibson, 32, of 2423 Eighth avenue, who was passing and discovered flame, and smoke bursting from the roof. He turned an alarm and then dashed into the smoke-filled hallway, rapping on each door and rousing the tenants to flee for safety. He continued his efforts, until he was burned about the hands and face, when Patrolman O'Donnell took up the task Gibson was taken to the hospital along with Morgang but after having his burns treated, went home. The ground floor of the building is occupied by Dr. Oscar H. Williams, druggist, and while the flames did not reach below the third floor, both the store and second floor were flooded with the deluge of water thrown into the building from the fireman's hose. There were several feet of water in the basement, also. The building is owned by the Terry Holding Co., 139th street and Seventh avenue, and the fire damage is estimated as about $20,000. According to a statement made public in New York City on Wednesday, April 9, the Florida Normal and Industrial Institute at St. Augustine has been given $30,000 for a swimming pool and gymnasium. The gift is made by August Hecksher, millionaire philanthropist, founder of the Hecksher Foundation, New York, whose interest was won when Mr. Hecksher visited the school while in St. Augustine this winter.

PROJETION BOOTH IN RENAISSANCE THEATRE CRASHES INTO ORCHESTRA KILLING ONE, INJURING 31 Serious Fire And More Loss Of Life Prevented By Forthought Of Operators Who Cut Off Electricity To Investigate Noises With a crash that could be heard for blocks, the five-ton projection booth of the Renaissance Theatre 137th street and Seventh avenue, dropped from the ceiling of the theatre into the orchestra at 3.30 p.m., Monday, April 14, killing one woman and injuring scores of others. The house was plunged into immediate darkness and a wild panic ensued, during which a fighting, milling crowd struggled to get outside. Screams of terrified men and women added to the din. The thick clouds of dust raised by the falling debris made the air stifling and added to the terror. ONLY MIRACLES SAVED DISASTER As soon as the crash was heard, ambulances were called from Harlem, Knickerbocker, Columbus and Fordham Hospitals. Police emergency wagons and police reserves hurried to the scene, quickly following the fire engines. Only miracles prevented a far more serious disaster. One, was the hour at which the crash occurred, for had the accident happened an hour later, the theatre would have been filled with school children and their parents and the casualties would have been much greater, and no doubt there would have been a greater loss of life. Operators Displayed Rare Foresight The other miracle was that the projection machine did not burst into flames. This was prevented by the forethought of the operators who cut off the machine when they got out to investigate the cracking noises they heard. If they had not done this, there is no doubt that a serious fire would have ensued. When firemen cleared away debris in the aisle of the theatre, they unexpectedly came upon the broken and crushed body of Mrs. Etta Middleton, seamstress, 38, of 2405 Seventh avenue. It was thought that everyone had gotten clear of the crash and that the only injuries were those caused by the flying debris. As soon as the dead woman was discovered, Mrs. Vera Williams, identified the body, then fainted. INJURED. Ethel Wiggins, 20, 226 West 119th street; held in Harlem Hospital for examination. Morris Berry, 29, 244 West 138th street; bruises of the left knee. Louis Griffith, 13, 228 West 134th street; cuts on head and neck. William Knight, 33, 273 West 140th street; bruises right knee and right shoulder. Edna Chaplain, 33, 106 West 134th street; hysteria. One woman, whose name could not be learned in the excitement, crawled with her baby under the seats, and thus escaped possible injury in the terrified crowd. Injured In Panic Mosi of the injuries resulted in the scramble for the exit. Ambulance surgeons treated most of the injured on the sidewalk and sent them home. The two operators were questioned by the homicide squad as was the manager, John Charity. The operators, Reginald Warner, 2419 Seventh avenue and Christopher Monroe, 271 Halsey street. Brooklyn, said that they heard a slight cracking sound and that they climbed out of the booth to investigate. Finding nothing wrong they went back into the booth and again heard another suspicious sound. They shut the machine off and climbed out again to investigate, and none too soon, for the booth crashed to the floor right behind them. It all happened too quickly for them to give any warning. No Fire Law Violated Deputy Fire Chief Elmer Mustard announced that the Fire Department laws had not been violated in the theatre and police and Fred C. Kuehule, chief inspector of the building department, assumed charge of the investigation. Kuehule said the booth collapsed when four steel rods, supporting the booth, snapped at the same time.

Seems like I couldn't stand anything—the least exertion and I would have weak trembles. "I heard of Cardul and thought it might do me good.

He had been arranged by District Attorney Brower on an indictment charging him with the theft of an automobile. His record showed six pleaable charges two term in the penitentiary and one in Sing Sing. When Judge Nova asked Allen how he pleaded to the charge, Allen replied that he would take a plea that would let him off with a sentence of serving the one year that he owed Sing Sing. This would have been a pragma to violation of parole and the rest would have been wiped off the slate, the judge stated. "That's it," answered Allen. "Well, you are a cute dealer in matters criminal, said Judge Nova, but deeply ignorant of the court's attitude towards old offenders." Judge Nova only let Allen plead to the indictment. Allen stated that there was nothing in that for him, so he would stand trial. "And you will not be long in gett- one." said District Attorney Brewner. Mrs. Brawner Refutes Story on Club Election In a letter to the editor of this page, Mrs. Gertrude Brawner, who has been co-leader of the 17th A.D. for a number of years refutes a statement that she read in a local paper in regards to the election of Republican Club which was held in the club rooms, 260 Summer avenue, on Tuesday, April 1. The article stated that "But her allegiance with the faction supposed to be working for the overthrow of Holland was sufficient to bring about the defeat." The article stated that "she did not know that an election was to be held until she received a card stating that the election was to be held on April 1. On that night Clarence J. Holland and Mrs. Esther Simpson were elected leader and co-leader, respectively, of the district." Mrs. Brawner states further: "I have other students, I handed a meeting of the 17th A.D. B.D., since November, and at that meeting I brought charges against Holland as being incompetent, irregular, and not the type of person for leader for the district, and I would under no circumstance be charged. He organized a young people's organization during the election some of them in other districts, and had them at the meeting, 22 of them to 11 of the older members of the district, and it was that they were prompted by the officers prompted by Mrs. Marie Fields and Holland. I was elected as co-leader of the 17th A.D. six years ago, when there was never an organization. Now as co-leader I found that no one work the district alone and asked if I might be given a man as leader." Mrs. Brawner states further that "she did not know of Mr. Holland only saw him in the meeting and tried to have him elected. After he was elected three months, he started women out of the organization, and we were known as the Women's Division of the 17th A.D. Only a year ago were asked by the County leader to work together because of strength, but I found that we were not getting along. Briner, Briner, lives at 494 Hancock-street, states that she is a member of the County Committee and the Invincible Club, white, and has been told by the powers that be that she will be recognized as the leader. It will take more than a group of children to deltrieve me, and for me to call the election over and they will stand by whatever I do." She also tasted that George W. Billions, former leader of the old A.D. of the County committee for leader, but being a federal civil service employee does not want the position.

Quite recently he delivered: the Founder's Day address at Tuskegee Insti- tute, Alabama, in which he dwelt upon the theme, that “tolerance is ‘the great lessor we learn from the life of Booker T. \Wash- ington.” ‘The occasion commemorated vthe birthday of the man whose genius and foresight, as well as his devotion to one idea, enabled him to establish this great training school for Negro youth in the heart of the South, ‘ In the course of his address, Dr. ‘Tigert asserted, that he had often remarked that the institution of slavery."in his opinion, cursed the white man in this country far more than it ever cursed the Negro, He said that some Negroes like Booker T. Washington “made slavery the stepping stone to fame and success, but he doubted if any white man ever benefit. téd by it,’ He was certain that because ‘the manual and industrial tasks were per- formed by slave labor, the whites f the South acquired a deep aversion to work- ing with their hands. .This distaste for manual toil retarded the development of the South in various ‘ways, and the speak- er said that it has just begun to overconie the handicaps growing out of that senti ment. . \ Dr. Tigert further ventured the state- ment that, if the whites ofthe South +ha¢ had a Washington of their own to lead them out of the educational wildginess a generation ago,”insiéad of being the poor: est section of the country in per capita wealth, it would long since have become the most prosperous section ofthe land, There is a great deal to substantiate this statement of an experienced educator. who is familiar with the natural resources of his section.and the weaknesses it has tc contend with in keeping pate with the general advancement of the country. ‘The part that slavery played in making the Negro the great industrial backhone of the South. was emphasized several months ago by Monroe XN. Work. in an address in which he summed up the eco- nomic value of the skilled trades and in- dustries acquired: by the race, asa factor that helped them on the threshold of their career as freemen. At that time they constituted the great force of carpenters and builders, wheelwrights and black- “stniths on all Southern plantations, and performed nearly all the skilled labor of that type. Those of the other race who didnot possess slave labor were classed as “poor whites”. and formed an inferior class of the population, 7 Much of this industrial heritage from slavery was Jost to_the generations that followed.emancipation. New standards of education were adopted and it required a Booker Washington to help the race re- gain the-ground lost in the skilled trades ‘and occupations. ¢ The’ whites - finally grasped the idea that they must go to work themselves to develop their section. Unfortunately, in grasping this idea of working with their hands.-they conceived another idea, that they must keep the lack’ workers from working on equal terms with them. The result of this color bar in economic pursuits has been seen in the! Southern cotton mills and in the barring of colored workmen from skilled trades in certain Southern, cities. ~ The spirit of tolerance which Dr. Ti- gert praised as one of the elements of Dr: Washington's character is sadly needed in the Southern economic system. -As one of the South's strongest industrial assets, the Negro should get a fair deal in the labor market... NEW “YORK'S SCHOOL HEAD. * The unanimous re-election of Dr. Wil- ‘liam ‘J. O'Shea as Superintendent of Schools for another six years is catise for congratulation by all those interested in the cause of publit education. The commenda- tion made by President Ryan of the Board of Education, that Dr, O'Shea during: his forty-four years in-the school system “has always given ar’ efficient administration" and was a militant leader when eireum- stance ard opportunity warranted, was well merited, Another member of the Board ewlogized his reputation for reach- Ry « Ghtesa: without,” pouweas prever~ mant or bisa.” To thése enconiumsmight be. added; the absence “of racial prejudice lor biason account of color, and his deter- mined" stand. against the drawing of coler lines among teachers. - In this he has ad- ered to the straightforward policy ‘of auch’ ilistrious predecéssors as Superin- tendeiits Maxwell and Kiddle. Te'is well to have a hett-of#he piiblic school, system of such strong caliber and progressive policies retained in. office, to tackle the serious problems that now ex- ist-and ate bound to“arise in the’ training of ‘youth in a city of such heterogenous elements as this, For ‘there are serious problems arising in’ many of the schools, that must be handled in a spirit of tact- fulness and" liberalism in order to arrive ata fair and just solution. ’‘In the matter of the teaching force; it is not desirable that there should be any segregation of colored teackers in Harlem, merely be- cause thé, greater part of the colored school popiilation is there, It is better that the teachers in those schools should be of both. races, and the colored teachers should be distributed throughout th city districts, as at present. -\ Other problems for.teachers and princi- pals have arisen through the migration to this city from other sections, where edu- cational conditions kave been lacking. This has-brought into our city schools a number of backward pupils, whose ages range high above the grades for city chil- dren .of the same age. This constitutes a problem of over-age pupils, who need epecial attention in order to bring them up to the average proficiency. The stand- ards and curriculum adapted to the nor- mal city child do not fit these backward children and they constitute a disturbing clement which tries the patience of many achers ‘and principals. «> «There is also need for special provision for-the over-age pupils who are not fitted for high school work and cannot secure admission to the trade schools, Some- times these pupils are shifted to a con- tinuation school, but that device does not appear to meet their needs. In most cas- es their parents are able and’ willing to keep them at school but, there does not seem to bea school where they can get the right,kind of training to-fit them for some ‘useful pursuit. The retention of Dr. O'Shea as the heat of the public school system warrants the belief that there will be an effort to meet all these problems of the children and the schools in the right way. He has shown himself open-minded and progressive in such matters as limiting homework and simplifying the curriculum for the student. as well as stimulating: the activities of the teaching force. His continuance, in office is a guarantee that other pressing prob- lems will receive adequate attention. A NEW ORLEANS CONVICTION. Recently a jury of twelve white men in New Orleans convicted a whitespolice of- ficer of murder in the shooting and kill- ing of a fourteen-year-old colored girl when she resisted his advances, This ver- dict of guilty of murder was followed by the imposing of a death sentencé by the court which appears to have met with the gencral approval of the community, if the expressions of the leading New Orleans editors are a true indication, . The New Orleans States in its editorial said: “The verdict of an unusually cour- ageous jury ought to have a repressive ef- fect on men like this policeman, who’ be- lieve that persons of color have no rights they are required to fespect, It means that in this city the Negro can and does get justice and protection in our criminal courts.” | The Times-Picayune said in part: “The trial, jury, composed entirely of white citi: zens, deserves..community’ approval and thanks for prescribing the penalty provid- ed by the white man’s “law and ‘iviliza- ‘tion for crimes of just such heinous ,and revolting type, as was proved convincing: ly to its twelve members in this case. Its Verdict constitutes a vindication of law and justice that will be approved by de- cent and fair-minded citizens of “both races.” The measure of this'verdict rendered by a white jury'in a Southern city in a case of this-kind must be taken by the charac- terization made by the New Orleans State, that it was “unusually courageous.” The rendering.of a just verdict in a Southern court -of justice where the offender. is white,and the victim is ‘colored, requires a.jury of’ this stripe. Only through juries of this typé can the Negrb get justice and protection in the coufts, The South needs courageous juries as well as just judges.

The Negro press and such race organizations as the National ,Asso- sition for the Advancement, of Colored People./protested against the elevation of the North ‘Carolina judge because he “flouted the Fourteedth and, Fifteenth aimendments," and hence is not eligible to ‘tit in cases that might involve constitu- tional ‘questions growing out of: thesé ‘amendments. ¢ The manner in which Judge Parker is alleged to have flouted the war amend: ments is alleged to have occurred in i920, when hie was quoted as saying, in a North Carolina newspaper, that “the’ participa. tion of the Negro in politics is a source of evil and danger to both races, and is not desired by wise’men in either race, or by the Republican party of North Car- olina.” It has been urged in extenuation of Judge Parker's utterances that he was 2 candidate for office at that time, and had to .use ‘Lilywhite methods to secure the support of the voters, . Singularly enough a Negro college pres- ident in North Carolina came to the sup- port of Judge Parker, and endorsed him for appointment: This lonely “endorser was Dr. J. E, Shepard, president of the North Carolia College for Negroes at Durham, who commended the nominee as a fair and impartial’ lawyer and added: “In his attitude on all racial questions and all questions affecting the rights of hu- manity: he has tried 10 be fair.” How well Judge Parker has succeeded in his endeavors to be fair, Dr. Shepard failed to specify. although he affirmed his belief in Judge Patker's absolute fairness and impartiality, , Somehow this endorsement is not quite convincing. It is also intimated that Judgé Parker is not favored by Southern Democrats be- cause of his decision holding invalid the Richmond segregation ordinance separat- ing the white and colored population, Among those in the Senate who have de- cided to oppose Parker's confirmation is Senator Borah of Idaho for reasons which probably have little to do with either his flouting’ of the amendments or upholding the: yellow, dog contracts. EXCLUDING THE FILIPINOS. A measure, knawn a3 the-\\sich_ bill, has been introduced in Congress to €X- clude immigration of ‘natives from the Philippine Islands. .A hearing on this bill was held before the House Immigration Committee last week, at which some sur- prising statements concerning the Fili- pinos were made by Hilario & Moncado of Los Angeles. who ig president of the Filipino Federation of Avie There were said to be some Sixty-five thousand Filipigps in this ‘country, df whieh it is claiméd” that twenty-two thousand are members of the Federation. According to the statement of President Moncado, ‘smoking, drinking and dancing are pro- hibited among sts members.» President Moncado further asserted that no member of the organization had been guilty of any violation: of American law,-which would indicate that bootleg- ging and hijacking are not among their pursuits. These refutations of the charge that the presence of thirty-five thousand or more Filipinos in California was a men- ace to American standards on the Pacific coast, if anything, went too far in that they indicated that the Filipinos were free from such petty vices as characterize the ordinary American, Fancy 2 young man of the present day on cither coast-or im the interior. who does not smoke cigar- ettes, drink bootleg liquor or dance when he can get the chance, There, may be some such, but hardly twenty-two thou- sand im one organization pledged to such abstinence. The trouble with the Filipinos seems to be that they are too good for the Amer- ican standards of the West coast. They do not furnish enough profit to make them economically valuable,to the bootlegger or the vender of cigarets. As to dancing, we seem to recall that one of the riots in California grew out of a dance at some Filipino club where the hostesses .were df the other race. , Of course, it may he'that the members of this Filipino club were not affiliated with Mr, Moncado’s federa- tion and: did not follow’ his ideals in re- fraining, from terpsichorean revels, . - ‘The real reason for the exclusion of Ori- ental labor on ‘the West coast, whether it is Chinese, Japanese or ilipino, is that Nis inore efficient than white dahor, Whether its living standards are higher or lower it is more economical fur employ: ers in the long run, Hence it receives a preference which brings about more ex- clusion measures. “The Week “ol Api"19 Venus, the planet of love and beau- ty, health and comfort and appl: Wess; is now: bringing its beniga vi beations to the: people who were born with the sun in ‘Laurus, front April 41 to May ‘21, in any year. ‘Lhe tranut or Venis over the natal sun wauiy brings seine wurtnwnu changes anu advantages, and & peciatly incunes tne uta to. roman: Ue thoughts of the oppusite-sex. ine Benign vibrations can pe, ark!

The Lincoln Giants won both games of their first double-header this season, Sunday, April 13, by defeating the Wilmington Club, 14-1 and Danny McClellen's Quaker Giants—mostly former Hilldale players—by a score of 7-1. Home runs by "Turkey" Stearnes, Cannady and "Red" Ryan featured the first game which proved a walkover for the local team. But in the other contest, the going wasn't so easy. Holland and Jackman staged a pitcher's battle in the first four innings of the second contest. Jackman had a slight advantage until the fourth, when two errors and four hits gave the Lincoln five runs. Two more runs were scored off Stanley in the sixth. Charlie Smith led 'at bat in this contest with three hits in four frips to the plate. South Philadelphia will play a double header against the Lincolnns at Protectory Oval on Sunday, April 20.

April 5, at the latter's court. The score was 56 to 46 at the end of a 10-minute triumph. Both teams having won six games and lost two in the League schedule, this game was a play-off for the championship Up to the end of the regulation period, the game was fast and even under the efficient handling of Hubbard and Barcroft. The score stood at 43 all when the "Y" made a sporting gesture that was popular but disartrous in the end. It all came about an Abyssinian player evidently fouling Hanks of the home team. The violation was called by both officials and almost simultaneously the timekeeper's final whistle blew. Abyssinian protested the decision and the "Y" rather than have the game end in dispute, passed up the free throw, thus throwing the game into an extra period. The sinking of the free throw would have meant a "Y" victory. The spirit and dash that characterized the "Y" in the early stages suddenly became lost in the extra minutes, for th but three points while Abyssiman was piling up thirteen. Half time found Abyssiman trailing 27-20, with J. Williams garnering 10 points and stamping himself as the outstanding player on his combination. His opponent at center was W Hanks, who was even in finer fettle, for he chalked up 14 points with a classy display of shooting in the fifteen foot radius. Bourne of the "Y" was almost as effective for his tally of 16 points is only a partial indication of his stellar performance. Easter, his teammate, was early handicapped by three personales, so that his characteristic aggressiveness was somewhat missing. Hanks brought his total points in the second half to 17, while Fletcher of Abyssinian came form behind to take scoring honors for the half with 14 points bringing his total to 18 F. Williams has his eye on the basket too, accounting for 14 points. It was an interesting affair all the way up to the extra period, hence the turn of affairs in this period was a keen disappointment to the "Y" boys and their followers but they sensed that the playing of the game meant more than a championship Abyssinian G F T Fletcher, rf 9 0 18 F.

Under the leadership of S. Randolph Edmonds the Baltimore Collegeians have made rapid progress in the little theatre. In addition to giving a creditable performance at the Alhambra last season the college group has the distinction and honor of being the first Negro college group to perform on Broadway, appearing in the National Little Theatre Tournament D. C. Alston rates them in his group of Little Theatre Movements throughout the country. The tour this season has included Wilkes Barre, Pa., Roanoke, Va., Hampton Institute, Va., and Baltimore, Md. The program includes, "The Rackey" by Ernest Cutherton, a Broken Bamboo by Willis Rudrardson, a play of Negro peasant life, play of Negro peasant life, recent immortals from the South and The House of Shame by Willis Rudrardson, a play of black-american Negro life. This play was named in last season, group. The Collegians are repeating it because of popular demand. THE NEW YORK AGE CREEN Mutt By OK! PROVE A WET! TIME HE HE STICKS TONGUE OUT! BERNARD BURT, EX-LAFAYETTE MANAGER, FREED Was Charged With Stealing $2,100 From the Theatre Safe Bernard L. Burt, for nearly ten years manager of the Lafayette Theatre. Harlem's leading playhouse, was acquitted Friday by a jury in Part 6* of the Court of General Sessions on the charge of robbery, after a trial that lasted four days. Mr. Burt was arrested on July 20, 1929, following the discovery that the theatre safe had been robbed of $2,100. An investigation by the police disclosed the fact that the safe door had been opened by someone who knew the combination and had not been broken. As Mr. Burt was the last official to have the house, suspicion fell on Mr. Burt, who was indicted in innocence, he was arrested on complaint of Frank Schiffman, general manager of the chain of theatres that control the Lafayette. Witness Was Discredited At the trial last week, the case against the former manager was considerably weakened when the state's star witness Benny Beaver, was brought into court handcuffed Beaver, who was the night watchman at the Lafayette at the time the crime was committed, has since been convicted on an assault charge, and is now serving a term in the state prison. Ralph Warrick, attorney for Mr. Burt, managed to secure several damaging admissions from Beaver during his cross examination. It was brought out that Beaver had several companions in the theatre on the night the robbery was committed, and they were men who were out of work. The inference was given the jury that they had the opportunity to enter the safe, and might have done so with the aid of the night watchman. Burt Has Booking Agency. During the past few months Mr. Burt, with Johnny Carey, one of the proprietors of the Nest Club, has been conducting a theatrical booking agency for colored performers at 109 West 133rd street. It was this agency that did the casting for "The Green Pastures," a manhunted Mr. Burt in the Man-hield Theatre. His rent is now engaged in selecting the cast for a colored show for the Schuberts. His vindication in court last week was hailed by many colored performers in Harlem who have come to know him as a friend. SMALLS' SINGING WAITERS GIVE 4th ANNUAL SICK BENEFIT BALL The fourth annual, sick bennett and ball of the Smalls' Singing and Dancing Walters was given Monday evening, April 14, at Smalls' Paradise, 518 street and Seventh avenue. It was a big success. The famous Kitchen Mechanic's Resue performed to the gratification of the large audience and everyone had a jolly time. The officers and members are Frank Scott, president, William Booker, chairman, Richard Doresey, secretari; Herbert Taylor, treasurer; Walter Seal master, arms; John Master, worth of ceremonies, Arthur Symonds, Reggie McHerson, Durgey Bennett, Garnell Smith, Leroy Johnson n, H. W. Sparks, Leram Holloway, Earl Ward, Earl Rone, Thomas Murray, Dave Robinson, Andy Bell, Jessie Ridley, Judson McDowell and Marion Smalls. At The Rousevelt A famous author and a famous playwright are responsible for Ronald Colman's latest all-talking starring picture "Condemined" which will be shown at the Roosevelt this Saturday, Sunday and Monday, April 19, 20 and 21. Blair, Niles wrote the book "Condemned to Devil's Island," from which the picture was adapted by Sidney Howard who won last year's Pulitzer Prize. The story of "Condemned" is laid in Devil's Island, the prison where the most desperate French criminals are sent, mostly on life sentences, to live under conditions which doom most of them to early death. The fever infected swamps which make escape almost impossible, the coral borrors of prison ships and squall cells, combined with the growth of a pore love between a convert and a beautiful girl, make "Condemned" one of the outstanding pictures of the day. VAUDE by GENE BYRNES HE'S SUCH A MIST RUNNER HE NASTA STICK HE THROWS OUT TO BALANCE HE'S NOT SO THERE! At The Lafayette Theatre In keeping with the joyful spirit of Easter, the management of the Lafayette Theatre is presenting an unusually attractive stage and screen program this week. The revue is aptly entitled "Easter Frolics." And while there are no bunnies on the stage, the beautiful chorus goes through a series of dances which are more charming and more entertaining than even the elfs and bunnies wach fiction always brings to mind at this time of the year. This chorus, incidentally, was trained by Charlie Davis and Addison Carey. The cast of "Easter Frolics" includes Hamtree Harrington, Alex Lovejoy, Willie Jackson, the Four Southeraires, Ravella Hughes, Carter and Daly, and those masters of acrobatic dancing, Bobby Goines, Baby Goines and Company. The cast also includes several other outstanding good entertainers "General Crack," the talking feature being presented together with "Egster Frolics" is one of the most dramatic photoplays created since the advent of talking pictures. It tells the story of a fearless and intrepid adventurer who becomes a great leader, leads his armies to victory, makes his king master of all Europe and is rewarded by having the king steal from him his young bride. At Lafayette Next Week. The greatest of the colored musical comedies which have played on Broadway in recent years—"Connie's Hot Chocolates"—will be presented at the Lafayette Theatre next week. The show will be presented by the same cast which played on Broadway and which is now winding up a tour of the large theatres of the country. True to its established policy, the Lafayette will also present the usual big photoplay program next week. At The Alhambra Theatre Roscoe Simmons, otherwise known as "Red," the sheik of the night clubs, is a clever "wise-cracking" radio announcer at the Alhambra Theatre this week. And it's a strong list of talent which he humorously announces in the Radio Revue. There is Billy Mitchell of the Saratoga Club and Billie Young Which comicalities both singly and together keep the audience demanding more and more. For good looks as well as talent there's an unheatable, combination—Lily Yien, Alma Travis, Barrington Guy and Monte Hawley. The girls have gorgeous new costumes and the young men, too, seem to have made easy preparations for Easter. The Skyarker's Band, composed mostly of picked musicians from Lewis Armstrong's ensemble, are a chief feature of the Radio Revue. And there's an eccentric dancing number by seven girls that is enormously liked, followed by all the Alhambra Girls in marvelous costumed with giant plumes as head-ress. "The Girl Outcast" is a drama that has for its theme a young girl's mistake and the cruel attitude of the village people, until the new pastor rebukes them for their unchristian conduct and demands to know "Who among you is without sin? Let him cast the first grin." "Bride Street," the talking picture of the New York underworld, is remarkable in that the stars are the famous three Mice Brothers—Tom Matt and Owen—who, in all their years on the screen have never appeared together before. George Le Maire, Broadway musical comedy story and producer is seen in the talking comedy, "At the Dentist," and there's one of those "THE GREEN PAST Of Noted Male and F headed by RICHARD B. a Special Benefit Perform MANSFIELD THEATRE TUESDAY, APRIL SEATS $3.00 to $12.00 Get your tickets now, at Hotel Gotha nue, Ballroom entrance, Phone Circle Prith, Manager.

Honner Tutt Jay Mondayy Edda Hagray Susie Sutton Jazzhips Richardson, Jr. Stanleigh Morrell James Fuller Josephine Byrd Billy Cumby Ivan Sharp THEATRICAL JOTTINGS By BOB SLATER By GUS SMITH After a long hard winter, things are beginning to look much better for the colored actors and actresses. One of the most encouraging signs, is that the better class of managers and producers are putting on colored shows. This is a condition long desired by the colored artist, who for so long, have had to work for the fly-by-night managers who took every advantage of his precarious condition. Now, with "Equity," the white actors' organization, taking an active interest and insisting on the members of most companies being a member of this organization, it is proving a Godsend to us. In "The Green Pastures," a tremendous hit, are ninety-five colored performers, all members of Equity. Opening Saturday, April 19, at the Royal Theatre, is Kallpatrick's "Old Time Minstrels," using forty of our better talent suitable for minstrels. In reheasal and opening soon, is Garland Howard's musical comedy of over fifty people. "Color Blind." a remarkable drama of Negro life in the South, written by Sam Park, a white man, casting at the Immense Thespian offices, owned and managed by John Carey, who runs "The Nest," a night club, goes into rehearsal this week, will have an all-Equity cast and is produced by the Shuberts, will have sixty colored players and several white. --- A company of twenty-two colored performers sailed on April 11 for Paris, France, where they will appear in a famous Parisian cabaret Another company of cabaret entertainers are in rehearsal, and will open at a hotel near Montreal, Can. Saturday before Easter. Lew Payton and Miss George Harvey, have been given good parts in "The Solid South," in which Richard Bennett will star. They leave in a fortnight for Chicago, where they will do a summer run. Charley Doyle is doing a good part in 'Jonac,' an all-white musical comedy. This indeed is an encouraging condition for so early in the season, with out-door shows opening all over the country in the next few weeks, and our prospects in the pictures brighter. It appears to be a better summer for all of us. We can only hope that every one getting "a break" will appreciate it, and carry themselves as ladies, and gentlemen at all places, and all the time. The members of "The Green Pastures" are being commented by every one who comes in contact with them for their remarkable department on and off the stage, so should it be with us all, wherever we play. Norman Thomas' Five, with Rustus Crump, the demon drummer, are paying the Palace, for their umphteen time this week. "wavy sound cartoons, "The Cat's Meow." Dusty, Feather, that loud and laughable fellow who is always a favorite at the Alhambra, will be back Monday and for a week will stir up murids in a merry affair called, "Shrise Me!" Of course, everybody know that is Dusty's favorite expression. George Williams and Bessie Brown from Broadway vaudeville will participate, and Doris Rhombottom's glorious voice will be heard again by her Alhambra admirers, "Hard-boiled, Harrigan," next week's drama, reveals a political boss who is an expert "tuxer" in the criminal courts. He is endearing to free a murderer when he finds out that the man is the betrayer of his young sister. The question is, what does he then do? The Liberty Magazine mystery thriller, "Murder on the Roof" with Dorothy Revier, Raymond Hatton and Margaret Livingston as its stars will be the talkie favorite. DRAMA Archie Jones and Speedy Wilson, those two slow but sure boys, are at Keith's Hippodrome, this week. "Helen, Justa and Charley, 'The Last Word in Class,' are at Keith's Royal, last half. Eddie, Green, the original simp, splits the week between Keith's Jefferson, New York, and the Regent, Patterson, N. J."

Program, With Felix Weir, Guest Artist Edward H. Margeston, the eminent composer, pianist and director, presented his group of singers, the Schubert Music Club, in one of its inimitable programs of Old Century music and a number of his own compositions to an appreciative audience in the auditorium of Grace Congregational Church, West 139th street, the Rev. Dr. A. C. Garner, pastor, on Palm Sunday afternoon at 3:30 o'clock, under suspices of the church-choir, Ollyve L. Jeter, director. This ensemble has won for itself a distinctive ranking in group singing, and it speaks for the excellence of, Mr. Margeston's ability as a teacher of the piano, as Tango" by Albenz; MacDowell's Polonaise, Op. 46, No. 12, and two numbers by Dett. Conditions, be largely a labor of cultural development. The distinctive feature of the program was the appearance of Felix F. Weir, who has long ranked as one of the race's most distinguished violinists, and also as an authoritative conductor, who played two compositions for the violin Light and Rhapsody on Negro Themes, both in manuscript. The first proved to be a most pleasing and attractive composition, with a theme that was masterfully threaded through the number in varying forms. Mr. Weir, with the composer at the heart of the style and interpretation, bringing to the task that superb technique which marks all of his work. The Rhapsody was of a larger form, in which the composer has incorporated the themes from a number of Negro Spirituals, the whole being woven into a musical fabric of delightful fashion. The playing with Miss Jeter at the piano, won such tremendous approval from the audience that its repetition in etiquette was necessary.

ACTIVITIES AMONG UNION MUSICIANS By PERCIVAL OUTRAM Before many months have rolled by, Local 802 will have changed its address. The new headquarters will be in 86th street from whence, it might be said, Local 802 was born. The Musical Mutual Protective Union are and have been occupying the 86th street premises since the memorable split of the factions of what was once Local 310. One group, backed by the American Federation of Labor, left the 86th street premises and obtained a charter for Local 802. This automatically killed Local 310 who then used the name M. M. P. U. The aid of all possible courts were invoked, but M. M. P. U., consistently lost its numerous appeals, and only stopped the costly business when the gregorian ruled against them. M. M. P. U. has at all times occupied the 86th street premises, bereft of course of any affiation or protection of the A. F. of L. Meanwhile, Local 802 had installed itself in the Fisk building. Their lease will shortly expire. Negotiations have been under way for the lease of the 802. M. M. P. U. lending to the acquiring of the 86th street premises. The last and seeming inseparable barrier was the disbanding of the M. M. P. U., and their total evacuation of all and every part of the east side building. This seems to have been agreed to, and so around September you will have to travel to the east side building. You will have to travel to any other duty compatible with your obligation as a member of Local 802. Luckey Roberts, composer and pianist extraordinary, has just returned from Palm Beach, Florida, thus closing another successful 8 weeks season, furnishing entertainment to the aristocratic and disinterested engagement of the hibernian every season in tropical Florida.

Luckey is justly proud, and loud in the praise of his combination, and among his usual retiring modesty, in the face of this added distinction to his well known qualifications? The retainer for this possible Parisian engagement will have to be of commensurate height and plush shrinkage of business due to Luckey's absence from his Broadway office. It has been for years the slogan among musicians that Luckey was the only one getting good prices; his clientele is wealthy Social Registerites and numerous enough to help him busy practically all the time. Conferences are now being held it is said, at the Wm. Morris offices between Mr. Fisher, representative of the Agencies Artistique Des Champs Elysees; Mr. Eddie Meyers of the Morris office, and Mr. Roberts, assisted by his capable secretary, Mr. Leroy D. Willis. Luckey, on Friday, April 11, took his team on a flying trip to Aiken, S. C., to play and entertain for a Social Register who was giving her spouse a surprise 50th birthday celebration. This lady came to New York from manchester her hands commanded Luckey and took them down for the party last Saturday night. Who knows? This party might extend to Sunday, but Luckey expects to be back in New York Monday. News that may make a band in this neighborhood happy has just been broadcast. Local 802, it is understood, has served notice on the management of the Savoy that hereafter no out of town bands will be allowed to work there. In other words, in the future the Savoy will be compelled to use bands which are in this region. Savoy will not be allowed to bring bands from outside of New York to play in their ballroom. This is local protection to home talent. It should help quite a bit in these stringent times and might inspire some of us to formulate an honest to goodness organized ensemble. Lockwood Lewis, the prechasing-singing saxophone leader (late leader of that sterling combination, the Missourians, now playing on Broadway), has assembled a band and starts next week in the Savoy, replacing Sammy Hagar. We hear it heard Lockwood's bunch, but knowing of him as we do, we will not be surprised to hear a well rehearsed, evenly balanced combination to ripen into one of the best bands in town. Oh, say did you see where the August Paul Whitman had been prevented from playing in Vancouver, B. C. for two Dances? The orchestra on its way to New York, it is reported, was booked for the two dances and a theatrical engagement. Immigration authorities inhibited the dancers but gave consent for the theatrical engagement. Incedent at the action of the attacker to refuse refused to play, any engagement Machine Shops Opened To Tuskgeee Students Tuskegee Institute, Alabama Through arrangement with the Tennessee Coal, Iron, and Railroad company of Birmingham, selected technical students of Tuskegee University to train the skills crafts under expert mechanics and with ideal production and instruction conditions.

Y., delivered the alumni address, which is holding the 20th anniversary reunion, "Experience," he said, "has taught us that there are four distinct groups of people living in the world, those living below the level of average respectability; those who appear really on the level, and those who live above the level of average respectability. This last group is composed of people who bring worth while things to pass. With their prophetic vision and untiring effort they shape the destinies of unborn generations." With this group, he credited the class of 1910 to cast it into The speaker closed his address with the presentation of a check from the members of his class to the students.

For once, at least, opinions here are ‘unanimous, and there are good and-caf&cient ceawuns why ther should bee; . ‘The linmigration law has un- doubtedly proved 4 luhor boom to the black man in this country. One doesn't need to be a labor statistician ‘to appreciate that fact. In every large indusirial center, despite the present. labor depres: sion, this faet is obvious A case in point is the number of Negroes that are now employed in ‘yard work by the Pullman Company, These is.na single industrial em- ployer’ in America, it may be said, that furmshes the’ casual abserver ‘with more convincing proof of this than the Pullinan system, — Visit any large eastern, western ar north- ern railroad center and yoit will find thal 75 per cent of the employ- ces working in its railroad yards are Néeracs, You will further find shat 60 per cent of these are Pull- man workers The South is nat in- fluded, for Negroes have always had the menopoly of the feld there ‘The Mott Haven Yards.in the Bronx and the Sunnyside Yards in Long Island City, furnish local and cons rete instances for the fore- komg assertions. In Sunnyside Yards. the Newro is even better represented perhaps than in. any vther Pullman terminal: Here Ne- grnes are employed as electricians, carpenters and clerks, In the other large termmale these employees are all white Mott Haven Yards has one colored clerk, but np col- fared mechanics, - But even as common. laborers, Negroes have profitted by reason Gi the’ immigration statute Take Mot Haven Yards for éxamyte. ‘Locday there are employed in these yards more than 400 Negroes as far leanersete Just suppose there were no restrictions on em. ‘igrants coming inte this country How many af those black work: cre would’ likely to be employed in these yards today? ‘The Pullman Company &f course, H, Dibble, Ir, Tuskegee Institute Mla. secretary treasurer, Dr. 1, If BR.

White People In White Plains Make Effort To Prevent Two Colored Men From Living In Exclusive Section Closing! TELEPHONE DIRECTOR NEW YORK TELEPHONE COMPANY telephone directory goes to press very soon there's time to make the changes you require if you Notify the Business Office at Once NEW YORK TELEPHONE COMPANY White Plains, N. Y.—The residents of two White Plains' exclusive sections are up in arms as the result of the invasion of two wealthy colored families. Dr. Arnold D. Collymore, a prominent dentist, has purchased a beautiful home on South Lexington avenue, near Bolton street, and Dr. Arthur M. Williams, a well-to-do physician, has bought a fine residence DeKalb avenue in the Green Place steeple. His house is into their new homes: As a result, the white residents are busy forming citizens associations, holding indignation meetings and taking such steps as they think may lead to ways and means of outing their new neighbors. In the meantime, Drs. Collymore and Williams are quietly going about their respective businesses, referring all inquiry to John A. Ross, their attorney, of HI John street, New York City. RACIAL PREJUDICE GROWING RAMPANT IN WESTCHESTER Colored Tradesman Is Thrice Burned Out By Jealous Neighbors Westchester County, adjoining New York City on, the north and known as the richest suburban county in the United States, is rampant with racial prejudice, is the startling information that has recently come to light in a series of incidents that have come to public notice. A few weeks ago The Age chronicled the information that colored people employed in domestic service in many of the towns of the county were being replaced by white foreigners, bringing about a serious unemployment situation among the colored residents. Then last week the metropolitan dailies carried the story of two well-to-both colored men in White Plains working police protection because white neighbors threatened them for moving into a high-class residential section. Now comes the story of a colored tradesman, James Waite, proprietor of Waite Brothers, upholsters and laborators, of S West Boston Post road, Mamaroneck, Mr. Waite has been in business in Westchester County since 1922 and a series of stunner incidents lead him to believe that white members of his craft are bent on driving him out of business and for no other reason that the fact that he is colored? He is a first-class decorator and quickly built up a prosperous business among the wealthy white residents of the county. He is thrifty and has been a good citizen in other ways. Never-the-less, he was recently told by a prominent white lawyer that he was not wanted in business in that county and he would do well to move. BELLE BELLE Mr. Waite recited to a reporter of The Age the reasons he believes that there is a conspiracy to force him out of Lusiness. Three times his store was devoured by fires of mysterious origin—one of the fires occurred in a house he had built in Larchmont on December 19, 1927 at night, and two little children, daughters of his tenant, were burnt to death. The police refused to investigate the fire and the newspapers charged that it was due to the fact that the building contained a lot of inflammable materials which he used in his business. On one occasion a drunken white woman threatened Mr. Waite with a gun but he succeeded in taking the pistol away from her. She was left off with the light sentence of 30 days imprisonment on a charge of intoxication. He has also 'received numerous threats over the telephone'. Mr. Waite's original store was at 47 Rose street New Rochelle, but while he was away on business, He was dispossessed by order of Judge Samuel Swinhurne, his stock placed on the sidewalk and burned. He was also burned out at 70 Post road, Lauchmont, and from there went into business with a white cabinet-maker in Yankers. His partner conspired against him and he was forced to dissolve the partnership. He then moved to his present address in Mambroneck and despite petty persecution on the part of A.

"When I would let myself get bilious, I would have grave headaches, and feel very bad after one of these headaches. But after I would take Black-Draught, my head would get easy, and it would be some time before I had another spell. I certainly can recommend Black-Draught for biliousness and constipation."

AGE EDITORIAL HELPS DePRIEST WIN IN CHICAGO 40,000 Copies Printed and Distributed at Armory Meeting In its issue of April 5 The New York Age published an editorial commenting on the race of Congressman Oscar DePriest for reelection to the House of Representatives from a South side district in Chicago. The Age is in receipt of a letter from Chicago, enclosing a sheet on which the editorial was reproduced as having appeared in The Age, with the following information: "Observing your editorial, I went immediately to Mr. Morris Lewis, the Congressman's secretary, with the suggestion that pluggers be made at once and distributed widely. The enclosed sample shows the results of Mr. Morris's meeting the DePriest voters, held Sunday at the 8th Regiment Armory, where thousands of persons listened to Mr DePriest, these pluggers were given to each voter. "There were 40,000 of them printed." The Ag editorial analyzed the Chicago situation, declaring that "Mr. DePriest has demonstrated that he is a courageous, hard-hitting opponent in debate and ever ready to defend himself and the people whom he represents. He has proven himself equal to every emergency that has arisen in his career so far as he should be renominated at the primary. The voters of his district should not be blinded by the pleas of the candidate who pretend they are after the nomination, but really only hope to destroy the present member's chances for reelection. It is gratifying to The New York Age that its aid should have been influential in enabling Congressman DePriest to achieve a sweeping and overwhelming victory over his opponents, for it is remembered that his words were potent in the last campaign in New York City which resulted in the defeat of alien leadership in Harlem for the first time, resulted in a full racial elective representation in the State Assembly and the Board of Aldermen from the 19th and 21st A.D.'s.

HAITIAN COUNCIL OF STATE CURBED BY PRES. BORNO Adjourned Session As the Council Opposed Plan Agreed Upon Port au Prince, Haiti—President Luis Borno took unusual action Sunday, April 13, to make good his promise of cooperation with the Hoover omission in restoring self-government in Haiti.

Roy, favored by the Commission and all political factions for the post of temporary President. When the Commission left Haiti a month ago it was with the understanding that Mr. Roy would be elected and that, on succeeding Borno on May 15, he would call for election of a Legislature, which in SPECIAL NOTICES K.

This understanding was acceptable to Mr. Borno and the opposition, but apparently not to the Council of State, which has functioned as an appointive advisory body. Members of the Council raised the pretext that Mr. Roy's father was not a Haitian; Mr. Roy denied this. Popular feeling mounted as the Council's attitude became known, and President Borno's adjournment of that body was hailed with delight by the populace. Borno had been appointed State Department last week that no one Roy would be recognized as temporary President. Mr. Borno cited the following explanation of his action: "Considering the dangerous effervescence created by blind passions and the complete failure to recognize the necessities of the hour and the paramount and permanent interests of the public, the adjournment of the Council of State's present session has been rendered indispensable to public peace. Therefore it is decreed that the session is adjourned." Observers believed the adjournment might result in Mr Borno replacing recalcitrant members of the Council with others favorable to Mr Roy, or that the Council might reopen Thursday with the same personnel providing all promised to vote for Roy. The government reserved the right to reopen the session if circumstances permit without danger to public peace. OBITUARIES Mrs. NANNETTE, E.
