Metropolitan Life Official Tells Why Company Does Not Hire Negroes
Tuckahoe Girl Now In First Place For Crown of Miss Westchester
While the company itself has no prejudice against the Negro, yet it does not feel it advisable to employ colored people on their staff because there would be serious objection on the part of their white employees. So states the vice-president and general counsel of the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, Leroy A. Lincoln, in reply to a letter requesting the company's position on the matter of employing Negroes on their staff. This exercise comes as a punishment of a letter sent to the president of the Metropolitan by Ernst N. Barringer, mortician, of 227 West 62nd street, who wrote, on April 15, to find the company's position on the employment of Negroes.
Mr. Barringer's letter to the president was as follows:
"I am taking the liberty to write you in regard to the employment of my race in your Company. Close observation during my visits to the home office reveals to me that all of the employees are white. "I have before me statistics showing the colored races' amount of investments in insurance in said company amounts to nine hundred and sixty millions dollars. Every race, apparently, except the colored race is represented in the personnel of service of said company, from manager to agent. I find out from said company their stand on this important question and why we as a group are not represented in your personnel. I am asking for a reply please."
The-Company's Reply.
In a letter dated, April 16, Leroy A. Lincoln, vice-president and general counsel of the company, stated the company's position on the matter as requested by Mr. Barringer. Mr. Lincoln's letter follows:
"Replying to your letter of April 16, I would say that, with a force composed of white persons, as our force, has been, we have felt it intolerable to include colored people in that force, not because of any preclude or the part of the Company, but because as you very well know there would be very serious objection on the part of our white employees, which would result in uncomfortable situation for both white and colored employees, if any of the latter were to be engaged.
Individually and collectively, we have the highest regard for the colored race and for the place it occupies in the community. We have millions of colored policy-bidders who have applied to us."
making a marvelous showing and a spurt from sixth to first place during the past week, Miss Dorothy Tureacea's candidate for the town of Miss Westchester in the Westchester Popularity Contest, is now leading the other six contestants with a total of 5,000 votes. During the week she brought in 4,100 votes. Elmer Webb, who was second last week, continues second with 4,100 votes and Helen Stewart and Edna Gibbs are tied for third place with 4,000 votes each. The vote schedule is
There are only four weeks left in the contest which is being hotly bought and there is much good mature competition among the representatives of each city to take the first prize, a beautiful diamond ring and the crown of "Miss Westchester." The second prize is a Bulova watch and the third prize a gold pen and pencil set. These prizes are on display at the Meyer Gordon jewelry Store at 125 Main Street. White Plains, where there to be seen by hundreds of people.
As each week draws to a close the standings of the contestants are rapidly becoming closer and closer. Every candidate has, as good a dance as the next girl to take one of the three prizes. It means a little extra work for some but what the one did last week—to come from stash to first place—each girl can do with a little extra effort. One set knows, who will win the prize, and no one will will dare to make a prediction as to the outcome. Each week the girls and their friends are breathtakingly close to standing. Outside the contest, each week there is, a new leader. No girl has yet been able to hold the lead for two weeks straight and it is because of this that the contest is so popular in Westchester, Watch next week's issue for the first news of the contest.
for life insurance, which they are able to obtain from us and not from any other large industrial insurance company, and to whom we have issued our policies, through which, at their death, they may be buried and their families appropriately protected."
An Unfair Position
In speaking to a reporter for The Age, Mr. Barringer characterized the letter of Mr. Lincoln as very weak, and said that he thought the company should at least employ colored agents, assuring the race of at least a small return on the enormous investment in insurance they have.
His letter to the Metropolitan in reply to Mr. Lincoln's was as follows:
"Your reply of the 18th received and carefully perused. Your reference to not finding it advisable to make a change in reference to the employees of said company I think is very unfair to my race
"You speak of the unforeseen results that would happen, through the employment of both groups. May I ask in what way do you know of what the results will be. I am afraid that your statement is very weak, and coming from an executive of said company, your reference to my race individually and collectively, certainly shows the attitude the company holds for the Negro.
"It is impossible to undo what has been done, but we can look to the future and support our own insurance companies, namely the Victory Life and the Supreme Liberty Life Insurance of Illinois, with the Victory Life now doing business in the State of New York."

WAR DEPARTMENT OFFICIAL TELLS THE AGE THERE WILL BE NO JIM CROWING OF GOLD STAR MOTHERS
In response to a strong and determined protest by the editor of The New York Age, to the Quartermaster General, United States Army, in-charge of plans (or the Gold Star Mothera' pilgrimage to cemeteries in France where their sons are buried, against the proposed arrangement by which Negro Gold Star Mothers and widows would be sent abroad on other ships than those on which white women would be sent, an officer of the War Department, in a personal conference, has informed The Age that the plan has been changed and that groups of Negro women would sail on ships carrying other women, and that there would be no attempt at jimcrowing them or affording them different treatment from that accorded white mothers and widows.
This assurance was given to Editor Fred R. Moore in his private office during a conference with an official from the War Department stationed in New York, and it was given as an official authoritative statement.
This official said that it is expected that about two hundred mothers and widows of colored soldiers would make the trip, and that orders have been given the army officers who will be in charge of the pilgrims to take "especially care that colored women shall receive the same kind of accommodations that are being provided for white women."
This assurance was given Editor Moore upon "official authority," he was informed.
The editor of The New York Age will cooperate with War Department officials in the securing of proper homes for these women while they are in New York City prior to sailing.
Head of Hotel Bellmen's Attacked By Thugs In Hallway, But Puts Up Fight, Beating Them Off; Is Clubbed
REMOVES TWELVE MEMBERSHAITIAN COUNCIL OF STATE Pres. Borno Takes Steps To Enforce Promise to Hoover Commission
Port-au-Prince, Haiti—Sweeping changes were made on April 16 in the Council of State, which had refused to carry out the Hoover Commission's plan for electing Engene T. Roy as temporary President of Haiti.
President Luis Borno removed twelve of the twenty-one members of the Council and replaced them with men believed favorable to Roy's election. The election was formally scheduled for last Monday, April 14, but Borno adjourned the Council on Sunday when he learned of the opposition.
The American Department of State has insisted it will recognize no one but Roy as temporary President
Head of Hotel Be By Thugs In Hall Fight, Beating Th
J C. Denham of 252 West 148th street, president of the Hotel Bellman's Association, 498 St. Nicholas avenue, and a trustee and treasurer of Rendall Presbyterian Church, West 137th street, refused to obey a "hands up" order from two thugs, and although he succeeded in fighting them off and escaping from their clutches, he had to go to Harlem Hospital and he treated for abrasions of the scalp, received when one of the hands slugged him with a blackjack. Mr. Denham had been to call on Mrs. William O. Terrell of Loug Branch, N. J., who was in the city for dental treatment and inpping him in a friend, Mrs. Gray, of 230 West 140th street, Mrs. Terrell was out and after a short chat with Mrs. Gray, Mr. Denham left and started downstairs. But on the landing of the second floor, one flight up, he was met by the holdup men, who brusquely ordered him to put up his hands and go on up to the roof.
Struch With Blackjack
Instead of complying, however the prospective victim told them "Go to h—"; angered at this reply, one of the thugs swung a blackjack against Mr. Denhanky, who was the lieutenant the force of the blow. The scapade, however, was badly cut as to cause his head and face to be
HAITIAN COUNCIL NAMES E. T. ROY PROVISIONAL HEAD
Acts In Conformity To Agreement Made With U. S. Commission
Port au Prince, Haiti.—The Council of State unanimously elected Eugene T. Roy, sixty-five-year-old Port au Prince banker, provisional President of Haiti on April 21 at a twenty-five-minute session. Roy will take office upon the expiration of President Louis Borno's term next month to serve until a regular constitutional election can be held
The Council room was ergued with government officials, members of the diplomatic corps and many Americans, including Brigadier General John H. Russell, American High Commissioner, as the body convened at 10 a.m. Several thousand Haitians were gathered in the street outside.
Allmen's Attacked alway, But Puts Up them Off; Is Clubbed
Then Mr. Denham began to fight back, yelling "murder! murder!" at the top of his voice, seizing one of the bandits in an effort to force him down the stairs to the street. Disconcerted by the unexpected resistance, the thug broke house, and both of them cuttled up the stairs, to probably make their escape over the roofs.
Mr. Denham ran to the street, still crying "murder!" and found a policeman on the corner. The officer put the, wounded man in a taxicab and sent him to the police station to report the occurrence and to ask for the, sending of two plain clothes men to the house where the attempt at holding him up was made.
At the station house, one of the officers took Mr. Denham in a police car to the hospital, where Dr. Whitaker treated the wounds and then the officer took Mr. Denham to the Hotel Bellmen's building.
No trace of the holdup men had been found, but Mr. Denham is certain he can identify the thug who struck him. It is believed that he was mistaken for a renting agent or some other kind of a robber. He has been poorly paid, even if he had succeeded, as he had only some small change on his person at the time.
Jewish Rabbi In White Plains Defends Negro Doctors Moving Into Homes in White Neighborhood
2 Negroes Killed In Plot of White Men to Collect Bank Bandit Rewards
On Thursday, April 10, Tate and the District Court at San Marcos.
White, Plains, N. Y.-Dr. Erold Dr. Collymore and Dr. A. M. Williams, Negroes, who moved into the Highland section of this city about a month ago, issued a statement through their attorney, John A. Ross, of 111 John street, that they have decided to remain permanently and that they would consider no offers to sell or otherwise get rid of their property.
It was announced by James R. Stevenson, president of the local Y. M. C. A., that a special committee of trustees and directors had been named to decide what action should be taken, if any, against Samuel R. Morsell, who is the secretary of the colored branch of the Y. M. C. A. who has gone together with Dr. Collymore at his home at 461 South Lexington avenue.
: Rabbi Defends Negroes.
The outstanding development of the attempt to get Drs. Collymore and Williams out of their recently acquired homes, was the strong and determined utterance of Rabbi Abram Goodman in addressing a congregation in the Jewish Community Center, declaring that "the Jews should be the first to come forth in sympathy and defense of these two Negro physicians, who have sought merely the only possible exit from squalidness." Rabbi Goodman denounced the newspapers, declaring that the first pointed up issues and aroused the interest in its present seriousness. "There have been, other Negroes besides Dr. Collymore and Dr. Williams who have gone to reside in white residential sections of this city," said the rabbi, "On these occasions, however, there was little agitation and it was not until newspapers learned of the current situation, that a controversy was leaked in its present bitterness.
Humane Values Count
Referring to reported threats that if the Y. M. C. A. did not take action with regard to the colored Y. M. C. A. secretary living in the Collymore home, the Highland residents would withdraw aid from the Community Chest, Rabbi Goodman asserted that "if the Community
(By Staff Correspondent)
Fort Worth, Texas—A vicious plot in which two Negroes were the innocent and unwilling victims, came to light here on Thursday, April 17, when A. P. Boy, white barber, confessed to the District Attorney that the killing of the Negroes who attempted to rob the First State Bank of Polytechnic, a suburb, last Thursday, was framed by four white men in a plot to collect a reward. Boyt and John Alsup, a former policeman, are charged with the murder of the colored men, Will Tate and George Terrell. Alsup was one of the men implicated in the statement made by Boyt at the District Attorney's office. Two other white men are also under arrest.
The white men are alleged to have induced the Negroes to attempt to rob the bank. They are said to have furnished them' with all the plans showing them to the robbery would come off successful. Tate and Tergell fell in with the plot, not knowing that a trap was being laid for them with the assistance of a reward of $5,000 offered, by the State Bankers' Association for the killing of any bank robber.

- He deprecated the assertion that

by the advent of Negroes into the
neighborhood, and said: "If this be
so, let property values be damned!

count with us."
- The fight of these two Negroes,

dignity of their down-trodden race.
- The ideals of our country are
worthy. I said Rabbi Goodman,
then the ideals of these two individuals are likewise just
for they are identical."
FIERY CROSS IS BURNED ON LAWN IN WHITE PLAINS Dr. Collymore and Family Awake, But-Let Klan Put On Its Show
- White Plains, N. Y.—A fiery cross was burned on the front lawn of the home of Dr. Errold D. Collymore, a Negro dentist, at 461 South Lexington avenue Tuesday, night, April 15. The event followed three hours after some 600 citizens of White Plains had attended a mass meeting protesting the purchase by Negroes of homes in exclusive residential sections of the town. Police, called to investigate the cross, were unable to find anyone about. Dr. Collymore's family was awake but had not interfered with the burning of the cross. They refused to make any comment. Alonzo P. Cooper, Commissioner of Public Safety, said today he would guard the home in the future.
Terrell rushed into the bank at Polytechnic with drawn guns and shouted to the employees to hold up their hails. Alsup, who had been employed by the bank as a guard on a tip that the bank was to be held up, opened fire and shot down both men.
The Bankers' Association, however, refused to pay the reward for the killing of the two men as the Polytechnic Bank had not contributed to the reward fund.
In November, 1927, when the Bankers' Association offered a standing reward for $5,000 for "deal bank robbers" and announced that "not one cent will be paid for the ones." Captain Frank Hamer of the Texas Rangers, predicted that the proposal would encourage frame-ups.
True to the prediction, these followed a series of killings in which men alleged to be attempting bank robberies were shot. Down. At Odessa two men were shot to death in front of a bank. Two were slam at Rankin and one was killed and one wounded at Stanton.
Captain Hamer caused the arrest of Carl F. Wood and J. H. Dumas in connection with the killings at Rankin which were alleged to have been plotted to collect reward money. Their cases are now pending in
Ville, Out, and took away a white girl, Isobel Jones who was to be married to Johnson the next day. The Kluxans objected to the impending marriage and took that means of preventing it, but some days later the marriage took place. After his conviction and fine, Phillip appealed his case, and at the same time the Crown Prosecutor took a counter appeal on the ground that the sentence was too lenient. Chief Justice Mulock, on April 16, dismissed Phillips' appeal and imposed the three months' jail sentence without option of a fine.
In passing sentence, Chief Justice Mulock said:
"The motive of the accused and his companions is imminent. Their action was unlawful and it is the duty of this court to pronounce the appropriate punishment.
"We are of the opinion that the monetary fine imposed by the magistrate was a wholly inadequate punishment, a travesty of justice and we substitute therefore imprisonment for the term of three months.
Officer of National Baptists Slain And Body Cast Into River As He Is Enroute From Nashville to Columbus
Scottsburg, Ind.-The faint cries of Edward D. Pierson of Chicago, auditor for the National Baptist Convention, brought three fishermen to a tree on the banks of the Muscatatuck River, where he was found caught in its branches with six bullet wounds in his body, hands and feet bound and two weighted travelling bags tied about his neck.

Mr. Pierson died a few minutes after being rescued but was unable to furnish any information as to how he came to be in such dreadful plight.
He went to Nashville, Tenn., on March 30 to audit books in the convention office, and left there Tuesday, April 15, for Columbus, O., intending to stop at Louisville, Ky, Just how he got to the point in the river here where he was found is a complete mystery.
According to Roy Darden, investigator for the District, Attorney General's office, said that Pierson in checking over the books in the Nashville office, had found that a loan of $2,000 to the office had been "juggled," and the secretary, Alma Overton, said that Mr. Pierson had carried with him a report of conditions in the Nashville office to be filed in the general offices of the convention in Chicago.
The brief case in which he carried his auditing reports, a diamond stickpin and gold watch were all missing, but $50 in money was found, in his pocket. Chicago police are of the opinion "Pierson had been' put on, the spgt and Harmon Award of Medal Made To D In Washington B

Minister, 2 Deacon Old Girl Drown St. Louis Durin St. Louis, Mo.—A minister, two deacons and a 13-year old girl, candidate for baptism into membership of the Hopewell Baptist Church, were swept away and drowned in the waters of the Mississippi, at foot of Morgan street on the levee here, on Sunday, afternoon, when the girl in excitement broke away from the minister and deacons as she was about to be immersed.
All of them lost their footing in the struggle. They had waded out about fifteen feet from shore and in attempting to catch the gird stumbled further out into the current and
taken, for a 'ride.' Members of the family believe that someone, interested in keeping reports of financial irregularities from being exposed had "hired some one to kill him." The police think he might have been kidnapped in Louisville, his captors heading north in an automobile, as Scottburg is on the main Louisville-Indianapolis highway. The bridge near where he was found is some distance from the railroad tracks. It is reported that there was a faction in the convention that opposed Pierson, and another report has it that he was warned not to go to Nashville. In Nashville A.M. Township, secretary of the Dauphin Board, denied that there had been any feeling between himself and Pierson. He said that Pierson "had charge of the records of the Sunday School Publishing Board and has reported no shortage in those accounts."
Miss Overton, the secretary, said that before leaving Nashville, Mr. Pierson had received a call from Indianapolis, asking him to come there at once. Mrs. Pierson said he had conferred with a man two days before leaving home about auditing several drug store ac-

Another Negro prisoner rushed into the prison carrying men out each time and each time he came in and locked them in for him wet. He must be dead." He was looking for his brother who was also a prisoner. The brother aaged afterwards found among those who had been burned to death.
One prisoner of extraordinary strength told press correspondents' how he had saved the lives of 350 men by chopping a hole in one of the cell walls. He no sooner had told his story than he dropped to the ground from exhaustion.

Bandit Dying After Speakeasy Holdup
William Rayler, 28, of 151 West 141st street, is in Harlem Hospital shot in the abdomen and not expected to live as a result of being wounded early. Sunday morning, in an alleged Harlem speakeasy at 2505 Seventh avenue, in a holdup by three bandits.
Rayler and two other unidentified Negroes entered the place, which was filled with patrons, with drawn revolvers and lined 20 patrons against the wall. One customer slipped out of the door and called Patrolmen-Walton and Bevans of the West 135th street police station, who stood near by. The policemen, who were off duty, ran into the cafe with drawn guns and in the hail of bullets that followed, Rayler, one of the holdup men dropped with a bullet in his abdomen.
The other two gunmen escaped in the rush of patrons from the place. One of the patrons, James Long, 39.2012 Seventh avenue, was treated by Harlem Hospital physicians for a minor, wound to his jaw caused by a grazing bullet. Rayler was taken to the hospital, where his death was expected momentarily. After all the excitement, Patrolman Walton found that two bullets had pierced his coat and lodged in his holster.

Lincoln Secretarial School Dance a Success
Several hundred students and friends of the Lincoln Secretarial School participated in one of the most enjoyable dances of the season at the Alhambra Ballroom Seventh avenue and 126th street, Friday evening, April 11. The occasion was the semi-annual dance of the school and there were several extra-added features.
Prof, Gilby Robinson, founder and principal of the school, made an address in which he pointed out the necessity of Harlem establishing, a department store and other racial establishments to give employment to members of their group graduating from such business schools as the Lincoln Segretarial Schools. His idea was that such stores should be financed and managed by members of the Negro group and that they would be supported by this group who spend much of their earnings in the white stores on 125th street. He said that, if the bulk of the Negroes of New York and surrounding cities would contribute as much as $5, a fund sufficiently large would be created to organize the department store.
A resolution was, unanimously passed endorsing the project as outlined by Prof. Robinson.
Other features of the evening's entertainment were special dances by Misses Millicent Simmons, Doris Roache, Lucille Tynes and Anna Brewster. There was also a terpsichorean exhibition by Louis Liebinger and Miss Mitzi Mahlscher.

GOVERNOR HOLDS HEARING ON TWO HOUSING BILLS Realtors Opposing Bills Chided By Executive For Race Bias
On Tuesday, April 15, Governor Roosevelt heard representatives of the tenants and landlords in connection with whether he should approve the bills introduced by Assemblymen. Rivers and Perkins. The bill of 'Assemblyman Rivers was that to compel landlords to make repairs, and the bill of 'Assemblyman Perkins was that providing for a six months' stay.
Stewart Browne, representing the United Real Estate Owners, and Edward P. Doyle, appearing for the Real Estate Board, as usual were the main speakers against the bill, and also, as usual, based their opposition to the bill mainly upon the ground that the bills were simply a move by the colored people of Harlem to revive the Emergency Rent Law and to enable the 'dead-beats' to avoid paying rent to the landlords. Also as usual, both attested to their god feeling toward the colored man.
Injected Racial Issue
Their injection of the racial issue was so insistent 'that' Governor Kousevelt was nally compelled to request that they direct their attention to the merits of the two bills. Assemblyman Rivers and Assemblyman Perkins were both present and both spoke in favor of the Governor approving the bills. Also present and speaking in favor of the bills were Mrs. Helen Hanning on behalf of the Community Council of New York City; Mrs. Lucille Zeuner of the Academy Tenants' Association; William Battle, representing the Upper Harlem Tenants' League; Mrs. Jane Crolley, representing the North Harlem Welfare Association; Senator Duncan T. OBrien, a New York City Democrat, and Mr. Marshall, representing the North Harlem Community Council.
Memoranda in support of the signing of the bills were submitted by the Assemblymen and it is confidently expected that Governor Roosevelt will approve each of the bills.
Wm. Singleton Jr., Is Victim of Auto Accident in Harlem
An auto collision in the rain and fog at the corner of 132nd street and Seventh avenue about 9:20 last Friday night resulted in the death of William Singleton Jr., 30 years old, of 248 West 129th street. Singleton was standing on the sidewalk when one of the cars swerped and struck him, fracturing his skull. He died about three hours later in Harlem Hospital. The collision occurred when an auto owned by Martin Einhorn of 102 West 140th street and driven by Frank Mahon of 239 West 145th street was struck by the auto of Joseph Chiapetti of 586 Southern Boulevard, driven by Avellino Vouman of 631 Jefferson place. The Bronx, Vouman attempted to make a left turn in 132nd street. His car struck the one driven by Mahon and caused it to swerve into the sidewalk, which was crowded with people.
The injured man was rushed to Harlem Hospital and the two drivers placed under arrest. They are being held on a technical charge of homicide, although the police say the accident was due more to the slippery street and the fog than to any negligence on the part of the two men arrested.
Young Singleton had, until a week before his death, been the proprietor of the pool, parlor, at 226 West 135th street, and was well known in spacious circles of Harlem. Funeral services held from St. Philip's P. E. Church, the Rev Shelton Hale Bishop officiating, on Tuesday noon and interment at Mt. Olivet Cemetery under direction of Granville O. Paris.

HOLDUP MAN GETS $60 FROM GROCER Forces Boy Behind Refrigerator, While He Loots Register
Friday night about 8 o'clock a bold robber entered the grocery store of Ernest Knight sr. 135 W. 132nd street and took $60 from the cash register.
Mr. Knight, the manager, who lives across the street had gone home for supper. A few minutes after he left a tall man entered the store and backed his son, Ernest, behind a refrigerator. He then proceeded to loot the cash register, after which he calmly walked out and joined two other men who were acting as lookouts at the front door. The boy was almost frightened to death. He ran out in time to see the trio going up 132nd street toward Seventh avenue.
Mr. Knight said to an Age reporter that it was unusual for him to have that much money in the register, but he was busy and did not have time to put it in a place for safe keeping. He further stated that in his opinion, the man had waited for months for a chance to rob his place, as a large number of people are always in and around the store, unless it is a rainy night. Detectives were called from the West 135th street police station, and are working on the case.

Rev. James B' Adams, pastor of Concord Baptist Church, Brooklyn, has been asked by the Wheat Street Baptist Church of Atlanta, Ga., to accept its pastorate. Mr. Adams began his active ministry with Concord Church as his first charge. He followed in the foot steps of two venerable men of the Baptist denomination, Rev Wm. T. Dixon and Rev Wm. Moss, both being pastors of-Concord Church for long periods. It had been predicted that so young a man could not handle such a church as Concord in a large city, but nine years have proven him a wise and progressive leader.
During this period there have been many accomplishments. More than two thousand people have united with Concord Church. The last mortgage from the church building has been removed, and four other building purchased, including a parsonage. The church supports a missionary in Africa, operates a graded Sunday, school live B. Y. P. U. with modern program, a Weekday School of Religious Education, a Daily Vacation Bible School; four basket ball teams and one baseball team under Brooklyn Sunday School Union; a Drum and Bugle Corps; two Troops of Scouts for boys and girls.
The church has one of the best business systems of operation of any Brooklyn parish, white or colored, and is considered by Brooklyn people to be the most active church of the borough
The activities of Concord Church under the leadership of Mr. Adams have centered the attention of Baptist people throughout the country upon this modest yet aggressive minister. The mastery manner of his execution has made his administration the outstanding achievement among young, Negro preachers in the country. Mr. Adams frequently exchanges pulpits with the leading white Baptist ministers of Brooklyn and personal friends the respected and achieving men of the ministry and in educational fields. He has not yet indicated whether he will accept the call from Atlanta.
Wheat Street Church
Wheat Street Church in Atlanta has a membership of more than four thousand, and has partially erected a gigantic building, designed to accommodate in the main auditorium twenty-five hundred people. When completed, it will include modern Sunday school class rooms and recreational facilities, with a parsonage already attached. It is perhaps the most popular church in Georgia, and certainly the most active along all lines of Christian endearment. For thirty-three years Wheat Street Church was pastored by the late lamented and respected Dr. P. James Bryant. Dr. Bryant was great as preacher, pastor and race leader. He was known nationally and internationally as dependable, loyal and fearless. Atlanta, both white and colored, considered hum one of its greatest assets. To have the privilege of following Dr. Bryant is an honor which would be welcomed by any young man in the ministry.
Write Book on Census
Ellis Williams, a census enumerator in Supervisor Lee V. Doherty's district, has been so impressed with his experiences that he has decided to write a book. Mr. Williams' office is on Court street. He has had some unusual experiences as a worker in his campaign to register the names of some of the residents of the country. Williams is a premedical student at New York University and has done some newspaper work also.
The five Kings County Census supervisors, in a talk with an Age representative last week, saw no likelihood of their job being completed on schedule time and thought that it would take about ten days more or two weeks to interview the last Brooklynite.
An evidence of the troubles the enumerators are having is seen in the experience of one who has made fourteen return calls at one home without getting the necessary information.
There are about ten of our group employed as enumerators: Among them is J. Marion Washington, past exalted ruler of Brooklyn Lodge of Elks. A young lady is also employed in the office.
Vocational Opportunity Campaign In Brooklyn Conducted April 20-27
The Employment Departments of the Brooklyn Urban League, the Ashland Place Branch Y, W. C, A, and the Carlton Avenue Branch Y, M. C, A, respectively are celebrating a Vocational' Opportunity Campaign, April 20 to 27, sponsored by the National Urban League. All the 44 branches of the Urban League, and allied social service organizations are cooperating. Monday evening, April 21, at 7 o'clock, T. Arnold Hill, director of the Industrial Relations Department of the National Urban League, opened the campaign with a 15-minute address over Station WNYC.
An open meeting was held on Tuesday, at 8.15 p. m., in the auditorium of the Brooklyn Bureau of Charities Building, 285 Scherterhorn street (uear Nevins).
The Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce is cooperating with the local organizations in this movement. It carried an article by Henry E. Ashcroft, the Brooklyn Urban League's industrial secretary, in the April issue of its official organ-ization paper, during a middle of March, the joint conference on unemployment, called at the direction of Meier Steinbrink, the local G. O. P. leader, was held at the Chamber.
Bridge Street Choir
In Splendid Service
Despite the fact that most, people go to church Sunday mornings now, nearly 500 persons came out to Bridge Street Church Sunday evening to hear the choir in its special Easter evening program. While the choir did fine Sunday morning, it seemed to have outdone itself with the Sunday evening program.
The chorus work was of a high order and left little to be desired by those who love this type of singing. The attacks, tempo, expression and shading showed the result of the training of Mrs. Lavinia Myers, the organist-directress.
The soloists were in fine form and they, like the rest of the singers, received generous expressions of apprehension.
Some of the choruses were: "He Lives Again," "Exultant Ebell's," "They Have Taken My Lord Away," "Victorious," "Awake Thou That Sleepest," and closing chorus, "Good Night."
There were solos by Mesdames Lingie-Draeston, Minnie V. Walker and Carrie Miller; also Lawrences Fields. The women of the choir sang a chorus, "Day of Days"; The Women's Quartet sang a number. In it were Mesdames Mitchell Lawrence, Patterson, Wright and Lee. The men of the choir sang two choruses, "There is a Greer fill" and Gethisemane. At the conclusion of the program the pastor Dr. Tyle the choir for the program and stated that he hoped to see the day that this church would spend more money on music and its choir. He made a plan for paid singers to support the volunteers who give of their time, mquee and service, for which they deserve much credit.

TWO SOUTHERN SENATORS.
TWO SOUTHERN SENATORS.
It is of interest to observe the actions and demeanor of some of the Southerners who are enabled by the suppression of the ballot to occupy seats in Congress. Occupying the limelight of the front page last week was Senator Caraway of Arkansas, who showed a vicious intent in his endeavor to hector and bully Henry H. Curran of New York, in his examination of the latter as to his doings as an officer of the Association Against the Prohibition Amendment. The animus of the Arkansas Senator's attack upon Curran, in addition to his fanaticism as a dry, was shown in the following passage between the witness and the Senator, as reported in, by the Telegram's Washington correspondent;
It is of interest to observe the actions and demeanor of some of the Southerners who are enabled by the suppression of the ballot to occupy seats in Congress. Occupying the limelight of the front page last week was Senator Caraway of Arkansas, who showed a vicious intent in his endeavor to hector and bully Henry H. Curran of New York, in his examination of the latter as to his doings as an officer of the Association Against the Prohibition Amendment. The animus of the Arkansas Senator's attack upon Curran, in addition to his fanaticism as a dry, was shown in the following passage between the witness and the Senator, as reported in by the Telegram's Washington correspondent:
That Negroes are eligible to membership in the association Curran readily told the committee, made him answer when Caraway asked if the association "drew the color line." Receiving a "No" from the witness Caraway snickered and suggested—
"It's our feeling a Negro has as much right to get drunk as a white man?"
This exchange had a deep significance because of the investigation of the association being directed against Raskob as Democratic National Chairman.
In view of the anti-Negro sentiment in Southern Democratic states, whose Senatorial spokesmen are demanding that Raskob resign, Gawaya's line of questioning may renew the movement for Raskob resignation. The committee had a hard time embarrassing Curran, except for the exchange on the Negro question.
This, action of Caraway and his brutal domineering manner in the threat-questioning of Curran is significant of the drift that is growing greater between Northern and Southern Democrats. While Curran himself is a Republican, he was being used to hit at the Democratic chairman of the National Committee. So Caraway treated him with the same brutality he would have employed toward a disfranchised Negro voter in his home state.
Another Democratic Senator of the stripe as Caraway is Thomas J. Heflin of Alabama, who used to empty the Senate Chamber when he ranted against the Catholic Church and the Negro. But according to another Washington correspondent a change has come over Heflin since his party has read him out of good standing, Governor Smith of New York, when the latter ran for President. And the Supreme Court of Alabama upheld the action of the Democratic State Committee in excluding Heflin from the primaries, so if he runs for Senator again he must run as an independent. Hence he has become a more chastened if not more refined Senator of late. There was some suggestion made a few months ago that the Republicans of Alabama might indorse Heflin's candidacy, if he ran as an independent. And the Lilywhites might do even that asine stunt.
The exhibition of bad manners, brutal domination and vicious animus made by such Senators as Caraway and Heflin is neither creditable to the section they represent nor, the legislative body in which they are suffered as members. The tone of the Senate is visibly lowered by such exhibitions, as those made by Caraway and Heflin before the latter was discarded by his own party. Now that their brutal hectoring has been extended toward their own party, associates, and such other victims as may fall into their hands as witnesses, the public may realize the plight of the Negro of the South under such nomination.

NOT A WHITE NATION.
According to certain observations made by Dr. Carl Jung, a Swiss psychologist, America, or at least the United States, is not a white nation but partly colored. This has been the judgment of many other observers who were not professional psychologists, but who could not resist the evidence of their eyes and ears, as they traveled from one part of the country to another, and were confronted with jazz melodies played by both white and colored orchestras, tan complexions, in groups of different races, and other signs of color in dancing and speegh.

This has been the judgment of many other observers who were not professional psychologists, but who could not resist the evidence of their eyes and ears, as they traveled from one part of the country to another, and were confronted with jazz music played by both white and colored orchestras, tan complexions in groups of different races, and other signs of color in dancing and speech.
But Dr. Jung, in his article which appeared in the April Forum, put his opinion on more scientific ground than the mere evidence of the senses. He wrote learnedly that "since the Negro lives within your cities and even within your houses, he lives also within your skin." The Negro's striking characteristics have infected the white population to such an extent that his mere presence in America "is a source of temperamental and nimetic infection which the European can't help noticing, for he sees the hopeless gap between the American—and the African Negro." Among the effects of the Negro upon American behavior, Dr. Jung lists "boundless, noisy sociality," the "loose-jointed walk, the Negro dance and music." Of American music he says it is "most obviously pervided by the African rhythm and the African melody."
The editor of the Forum in a foreword, explained that the article arose out of a meeting between himself, a South African white man, and James Weldon Johnson, who maintained "that the Negro has contributed more than is obvious on the surface to American musical composition." After that meeting the editor wrote to Zurich and put the question of Negro influence on our aesthetic life up to the Swiss psychologist. His answer expressed the belief that the Negro is influencing not only the white man's art but his behavior.
Incidentally, this contribution of the Negro to the development of the new race on this Continent is but the fulfillment of a prediction made by Dr. James McCune Smith about the middle of the past century, when he referred in a pamphlet to the ameliorating influence that colored Americans were destined to exert on the harsher nature of the whites. He predicted eminence in oratory, music and song as among the gifts that the colored race would add to America's equipment of cultural growth. And yet it has been arrested by some people that this is a-white man's country."
A NATIONAL NEGRO WEEKLY
In the history of the Negro race in this country the need has always been felt for an outstanding, outspoken national weekly newspaper, to collect and collate the news and to voice the sound and studied opinion of the race on such political and economic issues as effected its vital interests, which would include all matters that affected other Americans. For the past fifty years this place has been occupied to a large extent by The Age and its foremasters, The Globe, The Freeman and before them, The Rumor, which was started in New York in 1880.
Within the last ten or twenty years the Negro press has made great strides in mechanical make-up and typographical appearance, as well as in the volume of its news gathering and the good judgment and variety of information shown in its editorial output. Weekly journals of many pages and interesting contents are issued in such cities as Philadelphia, Pittsburg, Baltimore, Norfolk; St. Louis Chicago, Kansas City, and other points North and South, which indicate the rapid progress made in the art preservative. But most of these newspapers, despite their volume of news, are more local than national in scope. Their view of racial interests, as a rule, is limited to the city or State in which they are published, and they do not see the whole situation as one integral factor.
Perhaps exception might be made to this statement in the case of one of the Chicago weeklies, which claims a large circulation and in its news columns gives evidence of the wide field that it covers. But there is no corresponding grasp of general interests on the editorial page and one is often left in the dark as to its editorial opinion on issues of real importance. So at the risk of appearing to be bogotic or yaiangloroius, the editor of The Age is inclined to believe that this paper still remains nearer to the ideal of a national race weekly than any of its exchanges, excellent as many of them are in their makeup and news contents.
This opinion received substantial confirmation in a letter recently received at this office, in which the writer said:

This opinion received substantial confirmation in a letter recently received at this office, in which the writer said:
It might be of interest; to you to know that an editorial of Congressman Oscar DePriest, which appeared in our publication on April 5, was widely distributed throughout California during the past week. At a mass meeting during the past week, held at the 8th Regiment Armory, where
thousands of persons listened to Mr. DePrint, these pluggers (reprint of editorial) were given to each voter. There were 40,000 of them printed.
That is an indication of the scope and influence that should be exerted by a national race weekly, to which might be added a statement made by Miss Mary White Overton, in a letter written to The Age a year or so ago, in which she noted the fact that she found a copy of this paper in every colored home that she visited during her travels in the South. Such incidents as these encourage the endeavor to make The Age national in its scope and influence.
PUTTING THEORY INTO PRACTICE.
In most of the institutions for the instruction of colored youth in the South there are departments variously termed Social Science or Home Economics, which have to do with training girls and boys in the art of making the home habitable and keeping it so. As an adjunct to this training there is an exhibit of mode homes in rural sections showing what can be done to make even a home in the back woods neat and sanitary. Special attention is paid to this matter of better homes at Tuskegee Institute, and the theory is supplemented by a practical application of the methods of improvement to the rural homes in the vicinity of the institution.
A Northern observer on a recent visit south was struck by the contrast-between theory and practice at two institutions visited at other cities in Alabama. Each of these institutions had the same departments devoted to homemaking and was training students for work of that sort. But, at the first one visited, right adjointing the campus there were several dilapidated houses, the appearance of which blinded for repairs and renovations. What the interior might have disclosed the visitor did not inquire, but there was simple material for the students to practice upon in their endeavors to furnish model homes for rural sections.
At the second institution visited, at and near Alabama city there was revealed in close proximity a similar group of houses, sadly in need of repair and requiring all the resources of Social Science and Home Economics to make them habitable. And yet they were suffered to remain in this condition in the midst of a shriving city, while students were being trained next door to make model homes for rural sections. The need for mode homes is no doubt great in the country districts of the South, but that is no reason why the city homes should be allowed to fall into neglect and dilapidation.
The authorities of the two institutions last visited may not have any responsibility for the condition of the houses adjacent, but there did appear to be something inconsistent between the theory, of mode homes taught in the schools and the objective lessons of the opposite nature furnished at their doors. It would be a finding to apply the practical method adopted at Tuskegee of making the homes in the vicinity of the institution models, so that the students and the community would both profit by the application of theory to practice.
In most of the institutions for the instruction of colored youth in the South, there are departments variously termed Social Science or Home Economics, which have to do with training girls and boys in the art of making the home habitable and keeping it so. As an adjunct to this training there is an exhibit. of model homes in rural sections showing what can be done to make even a home in the backwoods neat and sanitary. Special attention is paid to this matter of better homes at Tuskegee Institute, and the theory is supplemented by a practical application of the methods of improvement to the rural homes in the vicinity of the institution.

Each of these institutions had the same departments devoted to homemaking and was training students for work of that sort.

At the second institution visited, at another Alabama city there was revealed in close proximity a similar group of houses, sadly in need of repair and requiring all the resources of Social Science and Home Economics to make them habitable.

NO SEPARATE PILGRIMAGE
Last February, it was announced upon the authority of the Quartermaster General's office at Washington, that in the preparation of plans for the pilgrimage or the surviving widows and mothers of soldiers who died in the World War, to visit the cemeteries of Europe, where their former husbands and sons lie buried, that greater satisfaction can be given to all concerned by conducting a separate pil
Last February, it was announced upon the authority of the Quartermaster General's office at Washington, that in the preparation of plans for the pilgrimage of the surviving widows and mothers of soldiers who died in the World War, to visit the cemeteries of Europe, where their former husbands and sons lie buried, that "greater satisfaction can be given to all concerned by conducting a separate pilgrimage for colored women." The Age promptly protested against this form of segregation as undemocratic and un-American, and peculiarly out of keeping with the nature of the pilgrimage, as the soldiers whose, graves were to be visited fought and died together in a common cause, stated on high authority at the time, "to make America safe for democracy."
We also suggested that the best way to arrange for the pilgrimage of the colored women who cared to make the journey would be to send them in groups of twenty-five or so on the same steamships as the rest of the pilgrims, instead of sending them all in one group on a separate vessel, as was proposed. In this protest against the segregation of the colored Gold Star mothers and widows, the Negro press unanimously joined, most of our papers printing strong editorials against any form of jimcorwism on such a sacred mission.
As a result of this unanimous protest, The Age has been assured upon official authority that the plan of a separate steamship for the colored Gold Star mothers has been dropped. The colored women who desire to make the pilgrimage will be divided between two vessels, with other passengers, and there will be no at-

tempt to jimrow them or in any way make them feel any difference between them and the white groups. It is expected that some two hundred widows and mothers of colored soldiers will make the trip to the cemeteries, and the army officials in charge of arrangements have reiterated, that 'especial care is being taken that colored women shall receive the same kind of accommodations that are being provided for white women." Every courtesy and consideration are promised to these travelers, and it is stated that Colonel Davis, the only army officer of the race reaching that rank, will be assigned to one of the vessels carrying these pilgrims.
Talking about the effort "To Organize the Negro Farmer," the Birmingham Reporter noted the following steps in that direction.
The work of organizing the Negro farmer in the State of Alabama and the South is one of the results of the farm bill. The white farmers, in most instances, are organized, and, in order to get the benefit of the federal aid coming to the farmers, the Negro must organize also. This boon to Negro farmers may have an economic effect that will react on the situation as found in the large cities. Perhaps, now the farmers from the cities will allure the Negroes from the cities back to the farm but, if something will serve to prevent any more from going to the city, that thing will serve immensely in the solution of the problem even though it will be done at a slow rate.
The plan now is to organize the Negro farmer into units and have those units affiliated closely with the units of the white farmer in order that co-operation may be close and competition negligible between them.
We long to see the southern farmer come into his own again. Those people lured away from the farm by war industries and high wages will not "soon find their way back except something in their place to turn into the army that direction, but almost anything may be expected to upset the economic equilibrium of America. The business" end of organizing the farmer is to be looked after by Mr. T. M. Campbell of Tuskegee.
Mr. Campbell's long experience with the farm problems of the South eminently qualifies him for the important duty of organizing the Negro farmer.
There have been signs of a concerted movement to keep, the black workers of the South on the farm. If this movement goes so far as to assure the farm workers of an adequate return for their labor, without being robbed of their rightful share of the crops, it may succeed.
Making a plea for "The Paseo Beautiful," to mark the growth of the racial population of Kansas City, Mo., the American of that city said:
The Negro statistics of today are more than 80,000 and the next census will show near 100,000 Negroes in Kansas City alone. With this great growth through the influx population that has come to us from our neighboring states of Oklahoma, Texas, Louisiana and Arkansas, created and increases the economic problem. To meet it is the next problem before us, and we must be ready and prepared. In every section of our city there are being built large office buildings, manufacturing plants and other industries by white men and largely for future generations white men. The beautiful streets around us are beautiful in Sunset Hill; the beautiful architecture and the wealth of beautiful homes, beautifying of streets, bridal paths and parkways are being developed while we stand and behold the beauty. What about our own neighborhood in this community?
The Pasco was perhaps the first boulevard of Kansas City. Today, its northern portion has been inherited by the coming tides of Negroes. But what of its beauty? Antiquated and partly gone, due to several reasons, the Pasco has been embraced by the part of the park board; perhaps, due to lacking interest on the part of ourselves. In order to meet and greet this approaching 100,000 colored population, there must be aroused in us a personal pride, contending for the preservation of the Pasco. This can only be done by contemplating and request the park board to replace the shrubbery, more flower-beds, more trees, more grass, more hedge, more seats, more music and in fact everything to beautify.
Let's look forward to the day when the Pasco will have regained its beauty. When the Negroes can with pride, as living on and directly in the Pasco, driveway in America. Let's regain and redeem the Pasco, to ourselves. The Pasco beautiful!
This aspiration for the improvement of the driveway to render it more in keeping with its Spanish title as a source of pleasure, is worthy of fulfilment.

Despite the fact that black men have fought in all the wars of this country, from Bunker Hill to the battlefields of France, it is strange how strong is the survival of color discrimination in the War Department. It is shown in treatment of the four regiments of Negro soldiers, who despite their records as fighters and marksmen, are shunted off to remote stations where life is made none too pleasant for them. The abandonment of the scheme to jim-crow the Gold Star mothers is a gratifying return to decent consideration for the living as well as the dead. It should help restore respect for America abroad.
two city physicians of Richmond,
Ind., the Cincinnati Union said:
The noteworthy part to us is, that the Doctor, W. G. Huffman, though colored has been carried by his ability into the front rank of the medical profession in his State. He holds diplomas from leading Universities of this country, and has had post graduate course in Europe. Prior to his great progress in Richmond Ind, and the medical staff doctor in the U. S. Army during the World War and his commission of discharge shows what commendation his efficiency attained for him. He practices in the leading hospitals of his town and his O. K. is absolutely necessary for the admission of any person to the infirmary. He examines and treats police, firemen, emergency cases. The fact that he has been brought into the pick of the private practice. About two-thirds of his patients are white. Dr. Huffman's success has come from intense study, continued industry, sterling honesty. He has a most estimable family, a wife and two admirable children, a large quantity of most valuable real estate.
That is a professional career full of encouragement for those young people who are preparing for the practice of medicine.
Eight young communists were sent to jail in, Cleveland for "cleaning out" a restaurant which drew a color line, according to the Cleveland Gazette, which commented as follows:
Where in the 'Communists' were wrong in the Chapin Restaurant trouble of week before last was in their invoking "strong-arm" methods in retaliation for the refusal of service to one white and two of their Afro-American members. One is rarely, if ever, justified, in or out of the courts, in taking the law into his own hands, as was done by the Communists when they cleaned the restaurant's refusal for the reason stated. Judge Alva R. Corlett in summing up the case, last week, made all this perfectly clear: also reminding the offending parties that Ohio had an effective Civil Rights law under which the three aggrieved persons and their friends should have sought in the courts the redress provided for in the law. It is not too late for them to do so, and The Gazette urges them to start the three good cases at once they have, particularly because the strong-arm" methods invoked in the Chapin restaurant caused the restaurant proprietor to sustain loss which the judge's sentence requires them to make good in cash. Take the Chapin restaurant refusal to serve into the courts and make it cost A. E. Chapin, proprietor, just as much as possible.
The course advised by Editor Smith is sane and sensible, but few communists, young or old, are built that way.
Emphasizing the "New Responsibility" assumed by workers of the race, through the success attending its employment campaign, the Chicago *Whip* said:
These clerks, butchers, salespersons, agents, collectors, office workers, etc., who have been placed in positions never before open to colored workers, through the efforts of this paper and with the cooperation of the people of the community in general, must consider themselves as on trial in the solution of a vastly important and vital economic problem. They must shoulder their share of the burden by proving themselves competent and efficient in every sense of the word to their employers.
In a number of cases, the white store owners and proprietors have reluctantly adopted the new policy advocated by. The Whip of employing colored help, claiming that colored people are less efficient, less reliable, less diligent to the white workers. This we knew to be a drastic error and a grave injustice to the race, but the white employers, in many cases, are yet to be合 be aware we are watching carefully every move made by their newly employed colored workers in searching for evidence to support their taken belief. Whether they are to become sold on the idea of the Negro worker's efficiency and ability or not depends largely upon the experience they have with their first colored employees. This places their responsibilities of keeping these new positions open to colored people on
"The lower in the scale of evolution a being is placed the more potent are the effects of 'the planetary influences; the higher; the wiser and the more individualized a being is, the more it is able to shape its own course and the less it will be actuated by the stellar vibrations."
That is why a knowledge of Astrology helps a being to daily life help a being to gain a knowledge of its weaknesses and the tendencies to evil in its nature; and above all Astrology shows a being its strength and the most opportunity times for development of added power for good. Those who know and understand Astrology are the wiser of the weeks: "let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid."
Jupiter, the planet that has dominion over financial matters, churches, and the courts of justice, will be in a very favorable position for the people of April 26 to May 2, 1999, and juggles it and will be possible to record progress in the before mentioned fields.
Jupiter is at its best in July on the following days, and it is worthwhile for the people of this week to plan ahead to use these dates: 3, 4, 14, 18, 19, 21, 23, 25, 27 and 31; and in August on the following days: 8, 10, 15, 17, 22, and 28. The people of this week should not use this paragraph for interest. The position of Jupiter promises some changes in the domestic and family circle for nearly every one born in this week. This does not mean that money will fall into any hands, but it does mean that the days that have been mentioned are very good for seeking financial progress and aid. Worthwhile plans will succeed when begun at the right time. This position is not lost of joy or happiness through the opposite sex to those who are not careful in their relations with the opposite sex..

That is a pertinent admonition that should stimulate the workers to make good on their new jobs. Equally pertinent is the warning to employers that there are individual differences among this class of workers.
Exploring the lack of recognition for efficient service rendered by Negro members of the Washington police force, the Washington World said:
Of all the Negroes on the police force, only two of them rank above privates. This is true despite the fact that many of these men have been on the police force for years and as a whole, have enviable records. Many of them carry in their bodies bullets received in line duty. Many can show, scars that tell a story of bravery of trying to take a prisoner at the point of losing their own life.
With all the scandal of the past few years, touching, from the Commissioners on down, not a Negro policeman has been involved. This group, an group—to be proud of. While they have their share of the hard assignments, their bravery and loyalty is only rewarded by possibly a note from the District Building. No act of valor has brought one of them a pair sheveler. No degree of loyalty has won for a single one the slightest promotion.
While Washington maintains this narrow policy, other cities are finding it helpful to the morale of the police force to promote Negroes Washington is supposed to represent the acme in city government, free from the contaminating influence of warlords. The President of United States himself is responsible for the administration of the affairs of the District of Columbia, his very nose, every law of deceyness and fairness is scorched by his subordinates. Policemen who pass his very office, in walking their beats, who are trusted with the safety of the lives of many of the highest government officials and visiting guests, are denied promotions that are rightfully theirs, "simply because they are members of the Negro race. Congress, which frequently investigates the affairs of the District of Columbia, was called upon to note this rank discrimination in the police department.

*Saturn, the planet that detracts the old only to build anew, in good aspect to the natal suns of those born on the dates in the previous paragraph, and will mandate its ponderable influence for the balance of the year. Jupiter opposes Saturn, with both planets favorably aspecting the natal suns of the people of this week, is an indication that the serious domestic changes and the attendant financial causes will eventually work out for the good of the people of this week, but the opposite of unimpulses. The opposite of exact on July 27, 1930, and many of the others will have manifested before the date for nearly every one born in this week. Those who can take time to plan ahead and the very best judgment before- beginning new plans that require a large financial outlay, will certainly not lose.
Neptune, the mystic planet that brings spiritual help from those who have much influence, will be favorably aspecting the natal suns of those born on April 21, 22, 23, 24, 25 and 26 (or the balance of the year). This position of Neptune will bring a deeper insight and a clearer understanding of things spiritual and material. This position of Neptune will better financial circumstances to those who are deserving.

A celebration of a Risen Lord, could be made than the beautiful sight of the tremendous crowd of worshippers who, overcrowded both the main auditorium and the lecture room, at the eleven o'clock services.
The pastor, Dr. Clarke, deliverth the Easter sermon as a text "less than a thousand topics discussed by Dr. Clarke in his sermon were," Faith, Unbelief, and the Immortality of the Soul"
Touching on unbelief, he said, "The greatest college professors of the country don't believe, but ask them what they believe and they don't have very much to say." I believe in Adam and Eve, because I see them in you. You don't have to believe in them, but the story of the Prodigal Son. Look at the front page of your newspaper. Think of that poor old bush who won't be able to preach an Easter, sermon this morning, but must come here and spend the day in the son who has committed murder. At the close of sermon ten people united with the church. Rev. J. R. Lewis was in charge of the sermon. His text 'was fund in the gospel of St. John 12th chapter 24th verse.

memorandum of the resurrection of Our Lord. The Praying Band's sunrise meeting was well attended. At eleven the pastor, preached his Easter sermon to an extraordinarily large congregation. His message was a gloriously inspiring one.
The Sunday school presented a on "The Hope of Immortality through Jesus Christ," special Easter program by the children at three o'clock. The superintendents and teachers of the various departments are to be congratulated for the splendid exercises that entertained a packed house. Mrs. Jos. Brown, Mrs. Florence Harris, Mrs. John Ware, Jos. Thomas, and Mrs. Clara Moore, are especially responsible for the success of the presentation.
The B.Y. P. U. Choral under direction of Kenneth Thomas, supplied the Easter music for the B.Y. P. U. service. Special selections were rendered in fine style by the twenty-six voices. Miss Dorothy McCoy sweetly sang a soprano solo, "Easter Day". accompanied by Mr. Flowe.
At eight p.m. the pastor allowed the Hallelujah Choir to take charge of the meeting. A song and testimony service warmed the hearts of the large audience and made the worship of praise an edifying singing for the day. The choir specially selected John Ross and Miss Luu Booker were soloists and sang beautifully. A ten nights' revival will be carried on and we hope to have all our members attend these special services. Come and hear the Hallelujah Choir.

PARADISE BAP. CHURCH
Easter morn the congregation, adorned in their colorful display of frocks and frills, listened attentively to a beautiful sermon preached by our pastor, Rev W. H. Stanley, subject, "The First Sermon Preached on Easter" (John 20.11.4). He began this, setting discussion on the subject, which we will tell. The Resurrection brought Hope to Humanity, hope of regeneration and peace with God, that which men longed for in all the ages; Joy and Peace in the service of Christ were in mind. Briefly he quoted the birth and life of Christ up to the time that He was crucified and on the first day of the week, Christ the inevitable Son of God, rose from the dead, conquered over death, hell and the grave. Us death and resurrection, higher life, and today we gather at the grave in Joseph's garden and keep Easter with each other.
From this time and through the eras, the Easter proclamation has the world by the angel's gift of good the sepulchre and expounded the beautiful sermon that Jesus Christ is risen Today. A 6:30 Sunday evening a wonderful 6:30 congregation was sworn by the Sunday school and R.Y.P. U. The office was packed to its capacity with parents and friends of he little ones who demonstrated so sweetly the Resumption. During the evening service, Rev H. W. Stanley praeced subject, "Love" (John 3:10), in which he loved Love as the most intricate and beautiful mystery to most people. Psychologists try to dissect this
On Sunday, April 27th, at 4 o'clock, the Rev. Josephine B Becton will deliver a message to all women at the Mt.

emotion but their knowledge is usually superficial. It does not delve deeply into the realms of its true feeling.
He pointed out the "Soul" as the spiritual, rational and immortal part in man, that desires health and happiness like unto the sun, and that makes constant endeavor to penetrate the frogs and damms. In conclusion he demonstrated the ardent Love that God had for the World that He so willingly gave His only Son that we might be saved. We all should love more and hate less for Love is a great potent thing and many are afraid of it. Following this beautiful sermon we commemorated the Lord's Supper.
Sunday school, 9:45 a.m.; morning service, 11 a. a.; B. Y. P. U., 6 p. m.; evening service 8 p. m.
EMANUEL A. M. E. CH.
Emanuel was the scene of great activity op Easter Sunday. The day began with services at 5 a.m. at which time the pastor, Rev D. Ward Nichols, preached. The auditorium was well filled and the all present enjoyed this stirring message. At 10 a.m. the Rev Henry Nelson preached to the Junior Church. His message was helpful in every respect.
The Rev, Dr. L. R. Nichols of Charleston, S. C., presiding elder of the Georgetown District, brought the message at the eleven clock hour auditorium was filled and there was not even standing room, Dr. Nichols preached from the Gospel of St. John, using as his subject the "Visit to the Tomb." This was one of the greatest sermons that it has been ours to hear, and more than fifty-eight years and his voice is as strong as that of a man many years younger.
An overflow service was held in the lecture room of the church which was taxed-to capacity. The Rev. W. Wragg preached a new Mass. Bishop M. H. Davis who has recently returned from Africa, was a pulpit guest at the morning service; also the Rev. A. L. Wilson of the Manhattan District.
The Sunday-school held its Easter exercises at 3:30 in the afternoon. The parents were pleased when the shade in the room turned out in large numbers to encourage the children.
At the evening hour the church was again filled and listened to the senior choir sing the "Orotorio", St Paul, by Mendelssohn. The solgists were Miss. Anna Cunning, soprano; Mrs. Millard, tenor; and Lennel Bullock, bass. The choir acquitted itself well and gave every evidence of hard work and study under the efficient director, Herbert-Allen. Mrs. Estelle Hawkins was at the piano while Miss Helen Dowdy was at the or-
Fifteen persons joined the church during the day.
ST. MARTIN'S CHAPEL
"The Power of the Resurrection"
was the subject of the Easter message delivered last-Sunday morning by the Rev. John H. Johnson, vicar of St. Martin's P. E. Chapel, 122nd street and Lenox avenue. The overwrowning captain had devised an auditorium at its umost. The lovely Easter lilies, roses, palms and colorful potted plants which decorated the altar and chancel added to the beauty, grandeur of the service.
Under the direction of the efficient chairman and organist, Carl Diton, an elaborate and inspiring music program was rendered by the well trained choir. In the solo parts, Mr. Diton, baritone, was the guest artist, Blanche Smith Eckle, soprano, and Johnick tenor.
Holy Communion was administered at 7 o'clock at 8 o'clock and at the regular morning service.
The reverent words of the text, "That I may know them and the power of His resurrection," as spoken by St. Paul, represent yearning and adoration by the minister, beginning his sermon, "Great writers find adequate words to express the deep emotions of mankind. And St. Paul was a great writer.
"There are three desires contained in that condensed expression" continued Mr. Johnson: "First; there is the longing to know Jesus. Second; we have Jesus, to know that the friendship between the Lord and ourselves is strengthened. Christianity means nothing to us unless we can visualize Him as a vital, thinking, living friend. This knowledge helps to understand Jesus, to cause it teaches us to 'Judge not that we be not judged'."
In the second place, the text expresses the desire to know His resurrection. The Incarnation and the Resurrection form the core of the Christian religion. If the resurrection be not real, then all is naught. The glory of the Christian religion is that Jesus died and rose Agam. In the end, Death was conquered. Joth said, I am the resurrection, resurrection means fulfillment. We believe that our Lord arose with His same personality—that His identity was not lost but that His body was transformed. He had taken on immortality. Thus it will be His own faith. We do not accept it we cling to it—it is our: Rock of Ages,

The sermon, based on the march in Jerusalem just prior to the tragic events of Calvary, so familiar to the millions of the faithful throughout the world, was, in brief, a testomy to the intellectivity of the age.

SOME REFLECTIONS ON SPORT
(From Imperial Magazine)
Are the athletes of today superior to those of twenty-five years ago? Records in all branches of sport have been broken in the last five years. Is this due to superior physique; to superior intelligence, or to refined technique and improved equipment?
Experts are fairly well agreed that, without the "lively" baseball, Babe Ruth would never have made the old-time sluggers like bush leaguers.
In the broad jump the modern technique is to leap from a finely prepared cinder takeoff and to twist the body. while in mid-air, thus adding several inches to the jump. Peter O'Connor, over twenty-five years ago, came within less than a foot of the present-record, in a straightaway jump from a grass takeoff.
The substitution of bamboo for ash and hickory poles, and the perfection of a regular swing when crossing the bar, may account for
Beckwith Stars as Lincoln Giants Win Doubleheader
Johnny Beckwith, versatile in
helfer, was the hero of a double
victory by the Lincoln Giants over
Lake Werder's Philadelphia base
club at the Catholic Protecryt
Qval Sunday, April 20. In addit
to playing brilliantly at third,
Beckwith made six hits in seven
trips to the plate during the two
games—he got a home run, three
two-baggers and two singles.
The Lincoln's won the first game by a score of 11—but in the other contest, "Rube" Chambers pitched air-tight ball and held the local team to 5 hits and two runs. They were shutout, through the good pitching of Red Ryan and Luther Farrell. It was Beckwinn's double in the fourth inning of the second game that scored the first run. The other was a home run by "Reel" Cainady. Other, outstanding players in the two games were Larry Brown, the Lincoln's new catcher, and Billy Yancey, shortstop. The New Brunswick nine and the Philadelphia-Professionals will be the attraction next Sunday. The following Sunday the Royal Giant will play the Lincoln, a doubleheader. "It will be" Feir first appearance at the Bronx in two years. A complete score of the second game.

the new records in pole vaulting.
The modern hammer and discus have slight resemblance to those used a quarter of a century ago; consequently records cannot be justly compared.
Immense improvement has been made in the development of fast tracks for sprinting, yet no one has clipped more than a fraction of a second from the marks of twenty years ago. A hundred yards in nine second may be accomplished when a better shoe is invented.
Swimmers know the amazing advance in technique which has permitted the experts in this sport to make old-timers look like children.
In horse-racing modern breeders are proud of their flesh, but the sketches point to the old-fashioned high wheeled heavy solly and ask that this be compared with the new, low sulky, the aluminum shoes, and the fast tracks on which horse races are now held.
Y Basketball Teams To Compete For the Nail & Parker Trophy
Y Basketball Teams To Compete For the Nail & Parker Trophy
The Nail and Parker Trophy, donated by one of the oldest real estate firms in Harlem, to be completed for annually between the representative teams of the Junior and Senior Departments of the West 135th Street Branch Y, M, C, A, will be the stake around which the basketball contest on Saturday evening, April 20, will revolve. The trophy was placed in competition in 1920. It was won that year by the "Alumni" of the Senior division and in 1927 and 1928 by the "YMD" of the Junior department. The Seniors not having a representative aggregation last year the trophy was not contested and remained in the custody of the
Among the "Alumni" who were the first to get their names on the base of the full-sized metal basketball were Hopkins, Sautch, Dyer, Jackson, Mayer, Steber and Harris. The only one of this group now playing competitive basketball is Sautch of the Renaissance. The following year the members of the YMD" whose names were added were Baker, Hawkins, O. Kley, Jeffries, Raynor, Reese, Walker, Adams, and Washington. They were followed by Marshall, Webb Wright, Kelly and Livingston the next year. Many of the members of these two latter combinations are still actively engaged in the game either at college or hereabouts. In fact, some of them are expected to show in the line-up of the Seniors in the coming wide.
Prior to the game between the "Y" Seniors and the Cardinals a week or so ago, when the "Y" scored a startling upset, the Seniors were looked upon as likely to run second to the Juniors in their annual tussle. The Juniors who were runner-up to Abbessia in the Unlimited division of the S, S, Y, C. Basketball League, are rated as a flashy combination. The sudden awakening of the Seniors, however, promises a keen and even battle. Miller, coach of the Seniors, feels his combination is one. Perhap he will be quite competitive for his charges have come along fast under his tutoring. The preliminaries will bring together two popular girls' teams, the "Brownies," and the "Golden Eagles." Two other "Y" teams, the Cyclones and the Midges will engage all-star combinations made up from the boys of the Y-club bague

Those who like minstrels will welcome "Kilpatrick's Old Time Minstrels" which opened Saturday night, April 19, at the Royale Theatale, West 45th street, near Broadway. And according to the program this is the first attempt at a minstrel show in this town since 1908 when "Honey Boy" Evans and his blackface comedians held sway. Presented by Thomas Kilpatrick and staged by Jesse A. Shup, the show is by an all colored cast. From start to finish the show was fast and did not lag as shows are bound to do in spots. While some of the gags are a bit ancient the men managed to put them over in the right way. There were good old-tune songs, buck and wings, tambourines and all the trimmings of the old tune minstrel show. First part olo and all went out, in jice manner.
Rudolph Dawson and William Cormish got good hands, for their old-fashioned buck dances and were forced to repeat to the customers' satisfaction. J. Mardo Brown of "Show Boat" fame was good in his bandmaster stunt.
For the sake of those who like the old-time minstrels, here's hoping that "Kilpatrick's Old-Time Minstrels" will remain with us for some time to come.
Included in the east are Tom Bethel, Harrison "Blackburn Stanford McKissick, Dan C" Michaels, Amon "Davis," Sindy Easton, J Louis Johnson, Joan La Nile, Helen Graddock, John W. Cooper, William Hart, Burt Howell, George W. Nixon, George Battle, Thomas H. Brandon Rudolph Dawson, Billy Demont, J W Molley, George-Myrick, Donald Hayes James K Love, R C, Rame, Larahal and J. Lardo Brown.
Omego Defeats Alpha
In Inter-Frat Game
The last basketball game on the 1930 season was played at the Renaissance Casino on Easter Monday afternoon between teams representing local chapters of the Alpha Phi Alpha and Omega Psi Phi fraternity. The Alpha team, led by Captain George Gregory, was beaten in the last few minutes of play, the final score being 25-24.
The score at the end of the first half was 11-9 in favor of Omega and during the second half the scoring was neck and neck, with Quinton Hands trying the score five minutes before the end of the game. A foul shot made the score 25-24 and the Omega boys froze the ball for the remainder of the game.
Members of the winning team were Arther Brothers, Bill McCoy, Crawford, Bob Payne and Hansboro.
C. the State College nine decisively dedicated Benedict College to the rhythm of 220. The Baptist boys from the State Capital used three pitchers to quell the State onslaught but each one in his turn was knocked out.
This represents State's high consecutive victory of the season, she having heaten Haines Institute twice, Paine, Allen and Benedict respectively, all contests with the exception of the first being one-sided ones.
Tentative plans are being laid for engagements with the Atlanta colleges and universities since it is clearly demonstrated that nothing within the Georgia-Carolina Association can cope with the formidable State College nine under the leadership of Coach Jones.

At The Lafayette Theatre
Harlem theatregoers are this week enjoyting the extraordinar-
privilege of seeing a Broadway show in connection with a large talking program at the Lafayette Theatre, without any increase in prices! Connie's "Hot Chocolates" which ran for one year at the Hudson Theatre on Broadway and which is now touring the large cities of the country at from $3.00 to $5.00 admission prices, is being presented at the popular Seventh avenue Playhouse together with the customary big talking picture program.

NEXT WEEK AT THE LAFAYETTE
The big-second act of "Connie's Hot Chocolates" will be presented at the Laïlaye Theatre next week. There will also be a complete change of the photoplay program, the feature being, "Hide Out", one of the finest underworld dramas which has produced since talking picture is found favor with the theatregoing public, but the talking picture melodrama, which will be presented at the Laïlaye Theatre next week together with the second act of "Connie's Hot Chocolates" is now playing at the Colony Theatre on Broadway.
At The Alhambra Theatre
Dusty Fletcher is back at the Albambra Theatre, this week leading the fun making in a new revue absurdity called "Sprise Mef". Dusty is at the head of a wonderfully selected ast. Billy Mitchell, the star of the Saratoga Club floor show, is his comedy partner for the week and things never grow dull for a moment. Dolle McCormack, the emphatic hit of "Hot Chocolate", delights with her acrobatic dancing and winsome personality, and Dorus Rheubottom, sweetest of sweet singers, is heard in a gorgeous duet with Barrington Guy, the "Blackbirds". Lily Yim has a raggedy dancing and singing turn that wins several encores and there's a little sketch with Artie Cain, Monte Hawley and Tom Moseley that starts seriously and ends in the biggest kind of a laugh.
"Hard boiled Harringan" is the drama of a political boss who is a power because of his ability as a fixer in the criminal courts. He is engaged in an effort to free a murdered when he learns that the man is his sister's betrayer. There develops a chmax that is a triumph of acting by Monte Hawley as the politician and Frances Sheppard as the runed girl. "The talking picture 'Murder on the Roof' with Dorothy McKenna, Rayman Hammond and Margaret Livingston as its stars, thrills the audience with, sensation after sensation.
"The Jubilee Singers" and a comical sound 'cartoon are among the added novelties of this long Alhambra program.

At The Odeon Theatre
An event of considerable importance to theatre goers will take place at the Odeon Theatre on Thursday and Friday. A great picture will be shown there which marks the entrance into talking pictures of the gorgeous Vilny Banky. The picture itself "A Lady To Love has the distinction of being the first French Film to be filmed this year. It is the talking picture version of the stage ht which was adjudged the greatest drama to play on Broadway last year.
"A Lady To Love" tells the story of a beautiful girl who is tricked into marrying an old Italian planter whom she had never seen! It was the same old story of Youth against Age. The girl was hungry for love and found it in the arms of her husband's best friend!
At The New Douglass
Ludwig Kranz, European capitalist, vanishes completely during an artrip across the English Channel. Rumor states that the millionaire, unhappy married and repulsive to his wife has committed suicide. Warner Baxter as Kranz, in Elinor Glyn's highly dramatic and mysterious all talking picture, "Such Men are Dangerous," gives a portrayal that is simply marvelous. His make up as the ugly, repulsive husband would cause that master of make up, Lon Chaney to twinge of jealousy. Supporting Warner Baxter is his extremely brilliant ole are Caitlyn Dal, Owen, Albert Conti and Hedda Hooper. Lovers of Elinor Glyn's novels and Warner Baxter's masterful acting should not miss "Such Men Are Dangerous" at the New Douglas Theatre, Saturday, Sunday and Monday, April 26, 27, 28.
At The Roosevelt
William Powell, sleek and savage genius of the talking screen, the man who can be villainous and lovable at the same time, will be seen and heard at the Roosevelt this Saturday, Sunday and Monday, April 20, 27, and 28 in his first starring picture "The Street of Chance."
In this picture, Powell is cast, as John B. Marsden alias "Natural Davis, the king of all the card sharpers allying the great white way. He is a man of duel natures. He is generous yet heartless, sympathetic yet cold. He is the king of all New York gamblers until the day when his young brother somes to town and despite every barrier lowered, set up, gets into "the not nothing business" with three of the biggest crooks in the business. Then Powell must make a heroic move to save his brother; he must go crooked himself. He does, and the result is one of the most overpowering scenes of sheet acting genius ever enacted on the screen.
Supporting William Powell in "Street of Chance" age Jean Arthur Kay Francis, Regis Toomey, Betty Francisco and Joan Standing.

Easter Sunday, following several days of rain which brought cold, disagreeable weather, dawned bright and sunshiny, with skies free of clouds, and with just enough tang in the air to bring a glow to the cheek and a spring to the tread.
All churches in the metropolitan area were crowded to the doors, and many of them could not afford sufficient room, either sitting or standing, to accommodate all the worshippers who sought to show their adoration and love for the Risen Christ.

services, some churches presenting three services during the day. Many of the church choirs prepared special music for the evening service, with only brief exhortations, if any, by the pastors. One of the most elaborate and striking, both from religious and music standpoints, was the service rendered by the choir of St. James Presbyterian Church, the Rev. Wm. Lloyd limes, pastor, all street music, under the direction of Dr. Melville Charlton, A.A. G. O', one of the race's most distinguished musicians, who is organist choirmaster at this church. The main auditorium of the church was well filled at 8:20, when the services were opened with the singing of Maunder's magnificent anthem, "This is the Day," by the entire choir, the remainder of the choir, a master manner. The pastor, Dr. limes, then read the Scripture lesson and the student assistant, Mr. Griggs offered the invocation.
The musical program followed with the singing of "Cujus amamam" ("Lord, youchsale Thy Love, youchsale Thy Love, Mater") by Arthur Wilson, tenor soloist of the choir, and "Awake! Arise!" (Clara'Edwards) by Miss Doris Trottman, soprano soloist. Both numbers were rendered most effectively, Mr. Wilson's number being particularly great. The guest artist of the evening was Miss Gertrude Elosee Martin, the talented young violinist, who played two numbers in her most facile and finished style, one of Burleigh's "Southland 'Sketches'
the choir then sang another Easter anthem, "Why seek ye the living among the dead?" by Holm, followed by Buzzi Pecia's Gloria, sung by Russell Stewart, and followed by Miss Marjoria Harri, another soprano of the choir. Mr. Stewart's voice has acquired deph and rotundity, yet retaining its clarity and tonal quality in its upper reaches. Miss Harri disdains the use of dramatic in its utterances, but needing a good bit of intensive drill on emission and control. One of the 'striking' renditions of the evening was that of a sexe-tone "woman, who sang the song of the women" in its Haentel's and Gretel, and a "Song in praise of Heaven and Earth." The last named was sung a capella, and the singer, through all its difficult and complicated harmonic structure, succeeded marvelously well in adding a natural pitch—it was absolute and sure.
Members of the sextet are Miss Trommar and Miss Harris, sopranos-Miss Mildred Blount and Mrs. Mildred Mezzo-sopranos, Miss Cora Fitzgerald and Mrs. Sue Ellar Carr, contralto. Urs Imme made brief but lucid and interesting talk on music as it relates to the church service, and the choir sang for its final offering in cat f. from the Service written by Samuel Coleridge Taylor. Preceding Miss Martin's playing of the Romance, an offering was taken, the entire proceeds of which were given to members of the choir who give their services voluntarily.

George Garner, Tenor Wins Favor in Georgia
Extraordinary tribute to the singing of the tenor, George Garner, is paid by Dan Magill, the athlete in the Athens, Ga. Banner Herald, who says Mr. Garner captivated his audience, among which there were two hundred white persons, and continues: "While the first A M E Church was comfortably filled night, with eight hundred white people included in the audience, if Garner-had remained over in Athens another night the church wouldn't hold the crowd. Because everyone who heard him just had to make an attempt at explaining the sensation he felt, to almost everyone he saw this morning. And here let me add that aside from the pleasure he gives both with Negro music and with his unveloyable voice, George Garner's contribution to his people cannot be measured. The impression he and his wife made in Athens—both upon white and Negro citizens—will be lasting."

ACTIVITIES AMONG UNION MUSICIANS
ACTIVITIES AMONG UNION MUSICIANS
By PERCIVAL OUTRAM
After years of hopeful waiting the expected plum has detached itself from the branch and dropped into the wide open pockets of 123 financial members of the Clet Club. The lawyers representing the Clet Club, whose property was converted for city use, caused a special meeting to be called Tuesday, April 15, at Bryant Hall, 42nd street and avenue, in a statement relating to the purchase price and distribution of the money.
$101,000 was the price alleged paid by the city for the two houses in 3rd street which had been acquired by the club many years pre- $100,000. But the reporter sum $12,000 in a mortgage of about $12,000, was paid; some $10,000 was placed in the bank as a kind of emergency fund- should any obligations appear against the club; then each member received a check for nearly $500. A twenty- percent-leased members will share in the money, on representation by the widows or heirs of proof of their claim, and the verification by the Cief Club that the dead member was financial at the time of his death. The lawyers received 10 per cent of the purchase price as their fee for attending the business
Thus has destiny closed one phase of the historic club, and two men who were shining lights in the rise and fame of the noted club did not partake in any benefit from the money paid for the premises. We were the first president of Europe, the first president, we beheld, of the Clerf Club, and Deacon Johnson, a subsequent president and manager.
Jim undoubtedly, with the assistance of others, brought the club into prominence and fame. He died long before the possibility arose that the club would need the club presidents of 33 clubs.
Deacon Johnson is very much alive today, and at one time, it alleged to have saved the club by assuming its responsibilities. But years afterwards by the apparently simple act of changing the lock of a gate on the entrance to the Clerf Club rooms, Deacon Johnson started a legal warfare which lasted for and mulled both sides in heavy legal costs and bitter recriminations.
At the conclusion of legal festivities, both sides claimed victory. But Deacon lost his membership and took no action for its restoration. Some of those who received checks from the hands of the treasurer of the Clet Club had quite a sour expression on their faces, induced by the fact that previously they had assigned their allotment.

to another individual, and the check was therefore only a vision of the past.
It is not unknown for two musicians to have the same name. But, it is, we think, unusual to find not only the same family and given the same instrument. It is because of this trick of fate that the "Boy Wonder" Willie Hicks, trumpet player, funds himself summoned to court to answer a charge for forgetting to complete the payments on a $4 ukelele since 1926.
Willie tried to explain to the lawyer for the plaintiff on the phone, about success, and had a little difficulty explaining the matter in his own housework. No one had ever sent hip strumming or warbling to the uke.
The explanation is simple. Four years ago, there was another Willie Hicks, who worked at a cabaret on Lenox avenue. He was a transient and not a resident of New York. He lived on edgecombe avenue, but took from a downtown store. Out "Buck Wonder" has never been on Edgecombe, and knows nothing of the transaction. Yet he will have to answer court, and should, by the contract signed for the instrument, easily disprove any knowledge of the transaction.

Bandmaster Halbert Finley, was again in audience with his band, the Henry Lincoln Band Band, 030, last Sunday at P. S. 139, West 140th street, at 3:30 p.m. in an Easter program.
The weather was fine and clear, and this may have somewhat contributed to the slender audience in the auditorium. Yet the audience was full, the losers, as they responded generously to an appeal for funds to carry on the good work.
The program was up to the standard given by this progressive band, the numbers being played up to tempo, with snap and precision, and the melody being carefully sung salvos of well merited applauders its clear sorred utterance.
Miss Doris Trotman, soprano solist, accompanied by the band, sang "My heart at thy sweet voice" from "Samson and Delilah" by Saint-Saens. Miss Trotman was in graduation from the school to be labored and feathered. Invited guests, the program announced, was Troop 775, Boy Scouts of America, Jarob Arendell, scoutmaster, Mr. Arendell, keenly sensing the situation made a speech apologizing for the absence of his charges, but placed the responsibility for their absence on their parents. Master of ceremonies R. Bengam Fray, introducible, as distinguished company, Jonathan Thompson, president of the N. A. M. A., Laird W. Simpson, bandman, president of the M. A.

He advised the public that any number of men could be had from the band, and getting enlisted after the band had completed a number, Mr. Freak announced that "Monarch Band is going to have trouble with us soon." This raised a laug, as he looked in the direction of Leont Simpson.

THINGS SEEN, HEARD AND DONE AMONG PULLMAN EMPLOYEES
(The eight of a series of articles, giving the views of two veteran porters, on the Pullman service and the porter, of which the first five were by Joseph Whitley, a twenty-five-year porter. The following is the third by JOHN REVEE, a fifteen-year porter.)
I have related, so far, some of my reactions regarding the purely physical side of the Pullman porter's job. I now come to its economic side. In so doing it is necessary to discuss that provoking subject—the tip question.
Odd as it might seem, this is a subject of his employment which the sound porter is averse to discussing; that is, he is averse to discussing it publicly. Outsiders may do so, and frequently do, but thePullman porter ascends the subject when it is for public consumption.
Has A Speculative Side.
This might sound odd, but it is nevertheless true; I have found it so, anyway, byipping on the Pullman do so, and frequently do, but thePullman porter ascends the subject when it is for public consumption.
Has A Speculative Side.
This might sound odd, but it is nevertheless true; I have found it so, anyway, byipping on the Pullman do so, and frequently do, but thePullman porter ascends the subject when it is for public consumption.
Porters Timid About Tips.
There are several reasons for that. In the first place, he thinks that as the tip is a gratuity, as such it is purely and solely a personal matter. In the second place, so much has been written about the "degrading" effect of the tip—and this type of porter is not the only one that he is actually timid about expressing himself on the subject. Yet no matter how unwilling he may be about discussing it, the tip is an essential element to his job. And no porter may well omit the subject from his category of experience, if any part of this category is to be realized. However, as I have said before, I am only describing my own reactions, and not those of any other porter. Analyzing my reactions I have come to the conclusion that the tipping system, as it works with the porter, has two phasos to it. In one respect, it stunts the hand, in the other, the hand, there is something alluring about it. The speculative feature of tipping perhaps accounts for this.

PLAYEES
As a sort of prelude to that club's annual spring frolie, which is advertised to be held at the Renaissance: Casino, or Monday evening, May 5, the ladies auxiliary of the Pullman Porters Athletic and 'Social' Club entertained the members of the club, their rel- tive at, the home of the association, 100 West 32th street, on Thursday evening, April 17.
The forms of entertainment, consisted of music, dancing and a co-location service, all of which were given a Pullman style and without cost to the guests. The president, a Penn, Terminal man; H. B. Howe, a Penn, Terminal man; G. Forster is financial secretary George Hopkins, treasurer, and George N. Spencer, another P. T. man, is in charge of arrangements for the May frolic.
Inadvertently, it was reported in this column last week that a meeting of the local officers of the P: P, B. A. in this district, the Penn, Terminal and the New Jersey districts would be held in the office of Superintendent K. V. Watson on Wednesday evening at 10:30. This meeting would be held on Wednesday evening, April 23, at the place mentioned.
At the annual meeting of the 110 Club a six-belt benefit organization whose membership is largely railroad workers, held in the Y. W. C. A. on Tuesday evening, April 15 the following. Pullman men were elected officers of the club for the ensuing year; Eugene Stokien, president; A. E. Jones, secretary; Sylvester Brown, treasurer, and T. C. Duval assistant treasurer.
The baseball war between the Pullman teams of the P. T. and Mott Haven Yards is on. Manager J. T. Reid of Sunnyside has practically challenged Manager C. H. Hunter of Mott-Haven to series of games to be played between their respective nines, prior to the championship game on field day. The idea back of this appears to be that each team a line on the playing strength of their favorite and may be save them some money.
It is not known, as yet, whether the Handsome Charlie will accept the challenge or not. But we can't see how he will mango to evade it. Here's hoping that he doesn't, anyway.

Our memorial committee is planning for a large attendance at our next annual memorial services. Watch this column for the date and the place. We hope every porter who can, will turn out and help us pay homage to our departed brother porters who have laid down the working tools of life.
I read an article some time ago, entitled "We all need praise." How true, but how many receive it even when they carn it? The author went on to say that a survey of rural life uncovered one general complaint made by women living on farms: they were prosperous (farmer wrote as follows:
"Maybe when I have lived until I am a hunk'd years old, I will get used to having everything I did taken for granted. As it is, life comes pretty dull and hard and you don't hear a word of thanks for all your efforts to keep things nice, and you don't easy keep on doing your bit when you hit on whether your cooking is good or not.
"Sometimes I feel like copying the woman who served her men iok cattle fodder for dinner after warming twenty years for a word of praise. When they dearest 'she must be crazy, she repiled that she never heard anything to make her think they had known the difference'"
Happiness is a perfume you cannot pour on others without getting a few drops on yourself.
Will Rogers says "Many of the youths of this country need narrow pants and broader ideas."

Has A Speculative Side.
This might sound odd, but it is nevertheless true; I have found it so, anyway. Tipping on Pullman car has a speculative side. For example: I leave New York for Chicago, say, 'with a car contain- ing a regular porter on the run. I am familiar with the dispositions of many of the passengers who patronize my train between these two points. 'On this trip I know that the passenger who occupies the drawing- room in my car is good enough to be a man who occupies section six will give me fifty cents when he gets off.
But regarding the eighteen other passengers I know nothing. They are unknown quantities, as it were, to me. With them it is simply a speculation. So, not unlike the man in the kind of stock, which may or may not rise with the day's market, my speculator on my stock. In my case however, the stock for sale is service, and my market is my passengers. When I have let my patrons have a leisurely or check up on my trip, I sell on my sales. Sometimes those are good and sometimes bad.
It is this speculative feature of the Pullman tipping system that accounts in a large measure for its attractiveness, that is to me the most important thing, let us say of two hundred or so miles. Every seat in the car is taken. The first passenger off rides only fifty miles of this distance. I take out his bag. When I get home, he has his H of course, is not the ordinary tipper. Nevertheless, it is an easily earned half-dollar, and I still have twenty-five or more to speculate on. Some give me ten cents, some give me twenty-five cents, some have made a fairly easy day's pay.
Yes, it is this phase of the system that accounts for my fifteen years of service, and why I contend that it has an alluring side. On the other hand, I do not fail to realize that were it not for this change, the chances are that today I would be edified by the title of "doctor" instead of that of "porter." But I have no regrets about that still I cannot get away from the fact that the system helped to deaden my youthful ambitions. And from what I see, that case is not an isolated one by any means. But these other examples are, like the idealists about that.
Job Drab Without Tipa
Economic and social idealists censure the porter's employer for this condition. But here is one porter who does not. I do not mean by that that the tips of passengers should be the porter's earnings in lieu of wages. I still believe that principle that every man is worthy of his pay be paid accordingly. But along with that belief it is my conclusion that the job of Pullman porter would be as free of attraction as near heer is of a kick, if the tipping system were abolished. As I see it, however, there is no danger of that eventuality. Negotiators may not always be the system the system will always exist. It will always bg an economic phase in Pullman car operation, no matter in what right it is viewed, or what is said about it.
Mott Haven Yard News
It is a long bridge of years between the old Pullman car, "Pioneer", the first palace car in railroad history, and the modern type car of today, but there and there are other vehicles, uratively speaking, has seen this bridge. From palace cars that wore once drawn by horse power and which were equipped with candles for lighting, coal for heat and pump for water; to palace cars of the hand supplies, these necessities, are experiences in the life of some of these Pullman veterans. One of such veterans is Porter Avery, Condy of the Mott Haven district, a palace car service when Wagner sleeping cars were drawn from 14th street, through Park avenue tunnel, to the present site of the Grand Central Station by horses, was as far as the steam locomotive in Central New York station being in 14th street in those days.
The veteran also recalls the time when sleeping cars were illuminated by tamps and candles; water or methanol for bathing; or plied by hand pumps, and the heating system was a coal stove, while reposed at the men's end of the cars. In speaking of those times recently, the veteran said: "When I look back and compare the porter's job of today with what it was in those days, all, for $20 a month, I get sick when I hear some of these porter chewing the meat out of their working conditions."

Philadelphia, Pa—After several months' effort, the industrial department of the Armstronging Association of Philadelphia has been successful in placing a colored clerk with the American Stores Co, the largest chain grocery store organization in Philadelphia. This concern, which was organized in Philadelphia and has its headquarters here, operates stores in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, the lower part of New York, Delaware, Maryland and the District of Columbia. Many of its stores are located in sections, having a heavy concentration of colored people, and where their percentage of trade therefore runs high. Officials of the American Stores Co. stated that they would be glad to emulate and work in a plan whereby they could employ some colored clerks. That promise was fulfilled when Mr. Cook, employment manager of the company, placed 'Charles Smith as a clerk in its store at 15th' and South streets.

Deaths From Diptheria Reduced 56 Per Cent Over Record For Previous Years During First Quarter, 1930
As a result of the toxin-anititoxin treatment by which more than 200, 080 children were immunized in this city in 1929, deaths from diphtheria for the first quarter of 1930 dropped to the unprecedented low figure of eighty-two according to Health Commissioner Shirley W. Wynne in a statement issued Monday. He pointed out that this unusual showing marks a reduction of 56 per cent, in deaths from diphtheria over the previous first quarter average for the last six years. Cases, also, for the first time in six years, dropped below the 1800 mark for the first quarter, falling to 1375 during the first thirteen weeks of 1930. The-average for the first quarter for the last six years was 2931 cases, so that the reduction in cases, also, laid to the use of toxin-anititoxin, was 53 per cent.
Figures for the last six years, covering only the first quarter, tell what is regarded as one of the most interesting experiences in the history of the Department of Health in its battle against sease. White summer complain among children was overcome by the introduction of pasteurized milk; smallpox subdued by the enforcement of vaccination and typhoid virus wiped out by chlorination of the city's water supply, the attack on diphtheria was perhaps the first real direct frontal movement made on a common malady.
Efficacy Is Demonstrated.
In 1923, first quarter, there were 2385 cases of diphrina and 190 deaths in this city; in 1924, 2760 cases and 231 deaths; in 1925, 2720 cases, and 190 deaths; in 1926, 1877 cases, and 118 deaths; in 1927, 3751 cases and 182 deaths; in 1928, 4091 cases and 224 deaths; and in 1929, 2800 cases and 170 deaths.
"The showing for the first quarter of 1930 in which only 82 deaths from diphrina are reported," said Edward Fisher Brown, director, diphrina Prevention Commission, which Thomas W. amone is chairman, beyond doubt the value of toxin-antitoxin. In the entire history of the Department of Health there has not been such a victory over any one disease in the short space of one year.
"It must be remembered that the efficacy of toxin-antitoxin does not arrive until six months after the third, or final, injection, there being three injections at intervals of one week required to complete the treatment. The first definite results of the anti diptheria cainam, which was begun in January, 1929, before we met noticeable until the third quarter of 1929 when there were 1052 cases and 55 death, the latter being 49 per cent, below the ten year average for the similar period.
Non-Immunized Children Die.
"In the last six months of 1929 when the effects of the immunizations made during the first six months became operative there was a total of 2379 cases and 137 deaths, the lowest in the history of the Department. In the first six months of the year here had been 325 deaths from the malady. As regards the last six months of 1929 it is gratifying to note that not one of the 137 victims of diphrina had taken a complete series of toxin-antitoxin and the Schiek test to determine whether immunity had been established. Two of the victims had received three injections, but had not taken the Schiek test so, therefore, could not be proven to have been immunized. Had these children been Subjected to the Schiek test, it would have been found that a second (treatment of toxin-antitoxin) was necessary and that undoubtedly would have saved their lives. "If we link up the remarkable saving of child life from diphrina

Parents Still Lax.
"Despite the rapid gains made over diptheria, the reduction in cases and deaths, and in face of all the appeals we have made through the press, over the radio, by car cards, billboards and special lectures to parents associations in the schools; in spite of the fact that we send out each week personal letters to the mother of every baby who has reached the age of nine months at the time we write and although we have urged almost daily for a whole year, and are still urging the necessity of immunization of children against diptheria, it is deplorable to note that many parents still persist in exposing their children to the most treacherous of all childhood diseases.
