NEGROES GET LANSUPPORT Atlanta, Ga.—Truthfulness of the statement that "politics makes strange bedfellows" is strikingly exemplified in Georgia where the Negro faction, beaded by Ben Davis, has aligned itself with the Klan element of which M. O. Dunning is leader. This strange alliance has been formed to defeat the "Lily-Nordic" program advocated by J. T. Rose; Atlanta's Collector of Revenue/ and his adherents.

White and colored leaders took part. The large audience was mixed. The Commission included a National campaign to raise a Stabilization Fund, of $1,360,000 which will insure the success of a ten-year program.

While there is much to be desired in the immeasurement of between the race, as the inter-racial millennium is on the distant future, Dr. Moton spoke optimistically of the mission of education to South, where he had unleashed Christianity is a failure and democracy is not to be taken seriously. Dr. M. Ashby Jones, formerly of Atlanta and one of the most noted divines in the 'South,' told of the early work of the Commission when white and colored leaders met in Atlanta at the close of the World War. It was the first time in his representation as a group, sat at a table and frankly discussed problems of mutual concern. Must Take Newro Seriously. The Rev. Dr. Jones believes the great difficulty in the South is to get the white man to take the Negro seriously. What the Commission- is striving to bring about is a consciousness of kind to create a physic atmosphere of kindness and confidence. What the black man but some honest hard-working white men are handicapped by religious, political and economic systems or ideas, remnants of the diseased philosophy of the past," said Dr. Mordecai W. Johnson. And yet we don't want to be free from the South; we want to be free with the South. We want our freedom not to come through any accidental process or any mechanical arrangement; such as the dilution of our color but we want to arrive at our freedom by the deliberate, thoughtful, purposeful and South, helped by our own small contributions." Dr. Johnson advocated participation of the Negro in the political activities of the North and the establishment of the race as an integral part of the section's economic life. The two races was unaffectionally opposed. "The North is a more fertile field for full equality than the South, because its institutions are older and more firmly established." Dr. Johnson said. "Not until the Negro has achieved complete economic strength, financial independence and full strength of our culture will the struggle be ended." Mayor Walker Praised.

Judge Parker's views on the rage "The protest of the colored people seems to be based upon the fear that I might not enforce the provisions of the Constitution; the sofar-tas'same, guarantees, their rights." Needless, to say, such an arbitrary roadlessness is not the norm of all of the institutions as the fundamental, and supreme; law of the land, and I detem it the first duty of a judge to give full scope, and effect to all of their provisions. In the discharge of my duties as circuit judge I have never hesitated, and I have delivered to the obligation to the fullest degree.

For years, the most men of both race were State had been seeking, to create friendly sentiments and peaceful relations between the races, and I did not want their efforts, to be sacrificed, or the party whose nomination was to be eminent by raiding of a false issue of this character.

The Senator says, as it were, 'Oh, I've got the proof on Howard'; for while Howard was receiving a salary of only $6400 annually, his bank accounts show that he deposited in the eighteenth month from January to September of $1,000.

Those of, which I have heard are so obviously abandond and untrue that it would seem that no answer, to them would be necessary, and, I shall not dignify them by notice here other than to show that they have not truly misrepresented my attitude. I endeavored to conduct my campaign for governor on a high plane and with fairness to all classes, of the people; and while I made it clear that my party reported people of the State as a clear act, at no time, advocated denying them the right to participate in the election in cases where they were qualified to do so, nor did they cause denial of the right to under the Constitution and laws of the United States. "Any charge or intimation that I appealed to, race prejudice is most unjust. I deplore the appeal to race prejudice and did my utmost to eliminate it from the camper. I in conclusion let me say that I have no prejudice whatever against the colored people and no disposition, to deny them any of their rights, and privileges under the Constitution and the law. I think, that my record as a judge of the United States Circuit Court, of Appeals, in a circuit where many of them reside, shows that no such prejudice or disposition.

The Senator says that John T.

Onions And Hot Dogs Cause Arrest Of Man On Assault Charge Onions And Hot Dogs Cause Arrest Of Man On Assault Charge Noel Hanson, of 163 West 143rd street likes onions and when he wants them, he wants them. On Sunday morning, April 27, at 10 o'clock, he went into the restaurant owned and operated by John Manos, (formerly Sec. Sev.) of the counterman. He ordered two hot dogs and told the counterman, James Janikis, Greek, of 194 Edgecombe avenue, to put some onions on them. When the counterman told him that the onions would be extra, police say that Hasson told the man that he wouldn't pay extra for them. One word led to another and the police say that the counterman told Hanson to get out of the store. At this Hanson is said to have countered with the remark that he would order the counterman out of the store. He would be targeted between the combatants and seperated them. During this brief respite from the battle, Janakis is alleged by the police to have picked up a meat cleaver and struck Hanson over the head with inflicting scalp wounds. Police were called and Patrolman Alley Benton of the 32nd street preset the attack on charges of felonious assault, brought Dr. Bibbs of Harlem Hospital who dressed Hanson's wounds. Janakis was arraigned before Magistrate Gottlieb on Monday, April 28, at which time he was held under $1,000 bail for the grand jury. Col. Wm.

Veteran Bell Hop Locked One of the oldest bell boys at the Hotel Clarendon, who is known as the "Deacon", had an unusual experience a few nights ago. The "Deacon", who is next in length of service to Captain William D. Adams, the head bellman, was called by the night clerk to answer a call. It seems that a white man and his wife came to the hotel in the course of a telephone gentleman desired a cigar. He telephoneled the clerk, asking that three cigars and change for a $10 bill be sent to the room. The "Deacon" was given he order, but imagine his embarrassment to find himself suddenly forced into the clothes closest of the room, the change for the $10 from his hand and the closet locked. The man descended to the lobby took $6 from the $9.74 which the "Deacon" had contributed, paid his rent and departed. They found the "Deacon" much later, and now Detective William Kenna is trying to find the white man. It would be hard to imagine 'taking things more cunning, than a performance by the Children's Dramatic Class.

CHEMISTRY AND THE SOUTH. The seventy-ninth meeting of the American chemical Society, held at Atlanta, in the early part of April, was hailed as marking an epoch in the industrial development of the South. The scientists assembled, in scores of technical papers, painted a new future for that long dormant section in the development of new industries made possible through research work of the chemist. As was stated by one press correspondent, new uses have been found for the cotton crop, notably as a meat substitute and as the source of non-fattening sugar. Rayons, cements, pulp and paper, wood distillation, nitrogen fixation, textile dyeing and finishing, leathers and chemicals were enumerated by the editor of a chemical journal as sources of new wealth. This acknowledgment by expert authority of the undeveloped, resources of the South merely corroborates the discoveries made from time to time by a modest but not entirely unknown scientist, who has worked many years at Tuskegee Institute. Dr. George W. Carver has discovered and utilized the properties of many of the agricultural products of the South, specializing in the such ordinary plants as the peanut and the sweet potato, both of which are largely raised in all parts of that section. While his work in this line has been recognized to some extent by scientific bodies and the people of his own race, it is but recently Dr. whites of that section have come New Morelate the value of such discoveries, both material point of view. More material recognition appears to come to Dr. Carver in the shape of Prospectus announcing the organization of the Carver Penol Company, Inc. and offering its shares for investment. This company has been incorporated under the laws of Delaware by a group of business men described as "closely associated with Dr. George W. Carver, Agricultural Research Chemist. Tuskegee Inst., Ala. Dr. Carver is named as the discoverer of the many products made from peanuts, and the originator of the process combining creosote with juices of fresh peanuts. This process is known as Penol and the corporation will engage in the manufacture and sale of this product. It is to be used the treatment of coughs, minor bronchitis, sore throat, forms of indigestion and a general rundown condition. seen said about the race or color of one emist or the business men who will undertake the management of this corporation. But from the description of their occupations it will be seen that they comprise some of the leading white citizens of the town. They include: The Mayor of Tuskegee, who is a Ford dealer and a hardware merchant; a physician who is also a capitalist; a former mayor of the town and former member of the Alabama legislature; the president of the local bank, who is also president of the Alabama Baptist Association and a member of the board of trustees of Tuskegee Institute; an attorney who is a State Senator and member of the State Board of Education; a druggist who was formerly president of the National Board of Pharmacy and is a present member of the State Board of Pharmacy. Besides these local notables there is one more successful business man, who is merely described as a merchant. The point of this prospectus is that this recognition of the value and importance of this Negro chemist's discoveries comes from a group of hardheaded white business men, some of whom were once doubtful of the expediency of the work done at Tuskegee Institute and one or two openly identified with the policy pursued by the Ku Klux Klan. Now, they are willing to be closely associated with Dr. Carver in an enterprise seeking to develop one at least of the products of their section. It would seem that chemical research may come to play a part in the ameliorating of racial friction and the promotion of amicable racial contacts, comparable with the good work accomplished through the medium of the various organizations devoted to the improvement of interracial relations. The material development of the South is a matter that might well enlist the cooperation of the progressive elements of both races. JUDGE PARKER'S TIMIDITY. JUDGE PARKER'S TIMIDITY. "As it seems to Heywood Broun, Judge Parker's claim to consideration as a candidate for the Supreme Court of the United States has been marred by timidity. He thinks that the North Carolina judge has failed to meet the issue-made against him with any considerable courage. There is considerable evidence that in 1920 Judge Parker declared, "The participation of the Negro in politics is a source of evil and danger to both races and is not desired by the wise men in either race or by the Republican party of NorthCarolina." Mr. Broun would have the judge stand by his opinion of ten years ago and reiterate it by declaring, "I said it, and the opinion which I expressed is shared by the vast majority of all white men in the South." As it seems to Heywood Broun, Judge Parker's claim, to consideration as candidate for the Supreme Court of the United States has been made timidity. He thinks that the North Carolina judge has failed to issue made against him with any more desirable courage. There is consideration evidence that in 1920 Judge Parker was hired, "The participation of the New politics is a source of evil and danger both races and is not desired by the men in either race or by the Republican party of North Carolina." Mr. Broun would have the judge stand by his opinion of ten years ago and reiterate its declaring, "I said it, and the opinion that I expressed is shared by the majority of all white men in the Square According to Mr. Broun, this would true saying and Judge Parker would have received credit for frankness in standing by his force of expression. Mr. Broun went on further argue how such an expression of opinion could be justified by a calm and logical view of the political situation in South. We quote him as follows: "Sooner or later complete enfranchisement must be given to the Negro in Amendment 3, still true that no land can endure, slave and half free, and no man is free, we the ballot is denied to him. But if I would candidate for high executive office, or judicial office, I would say, even without concern, that I would not now sanction effort to enforce the Fourteenth and Fifteenth amendments to the Constitution of the United States of America of the time they were formulated, but we must face that in the year 1930 they cannot be universally into practice except through coition and the use of armed force. And coercion and armed force, have not won a victory of any lasting moment in the world began. An ounce of conviction in the political discrimination against the Negro removed is by the process of education Unfortunately, that is a slow process. But master ones just won't do the trick. These are the words of a friend of the judge, indeed we might say of a friend oppressed and downtrodden of evile. No one can dispute the quality of Broun's disposition to side with the herder in the fight, regardless of the fruits of the contest or what originally articled it. At times, in his advocacy Negro side of the argument, he further than many ardent race chariers would have dared to go, because feared that the facts would not put their assertions. When he says they would not sanction the effort to force the Fourteenth and Fifteenth amendments to the Constitution because would require the use of armed force in cold type what most people believe in their hearts and act in theirs. Outside of the opposition of union land the Negro to Judge Parker, they would seem to be ample ground for election by the Senate for the reason it fails to measure up to the legal caliber required for the lofty office of the Supreme Court. When no timidity is added to his other defenses, his failure to measure up to the standard is made the more conspicuous. The only reason for President Hoover nomination of Judge Parker would seem to be political, on the theory that the appointment of a Supreme Court judge from the South would help to split the identity of that section. Apparently Hoover still believes that the South would him and not merely against Governor Smith. The confirmation of Judge Parker would confirm Mr. Hoover in his keen view of election results and proudly lead to further tangles. According to Mr. Broun, this would be a true saying and Judge Parker would at least have received credit for frankness and courage in standing by his former expression. Mr. Broun went on further to argue how such an expression of opinion could be justified by a calm and logical survey of the political situation in the South. We quote him as follows: Sooner or later complete enfranchisement must be given to the Negro in America. It is still true that no land can be half slave and half free, and no man is free when the ballot is denied to him. But if I were a candidate for high executive office, or judicial office, I would say, even without being concerned, that I would not now sanction the effort to enforce the Fourteenth and Fifteenth amendments to the Constitution of the United States. I believe in the purpose for which they have been enacted, but I must fact that in the year 1930 they cannot be put universally into practice except through coercion and the use of armed force. And coercion and armed force, have never won a victory of any lasting moment since the world began. An ounce of conviction is worth ten tons of coercion. The only way political discrimination against the Negro can be removed is by the process of educaton. Unfortunately, that a slow process. But the faster ones just won't do the trick. These are the words of a friend of the race, indeed we might say of a friend to the oppressed and downtrodden of every race. No one can dispute the quality of Mr. Broun's disposition to side with the underdog in the fight, regardless of the merits of the contest or what originally started it. At times, in his advocacy of the Negro side of the argument, he has gone further than many ardent race champions would have dared to go, because they feared that the facts would not justify their assertions. When he says that he would not sanction the effort to enforce the Fourteenth and Fifteenth amendments to the Constitution because it would require the use of armed force, he put in cold type what most Americans believe in their hearts and act in their lives. Outside of the opposition of union labor and the Negro to Judge Parker, there would seem to be ample ground for his rejection by the Senate for the reason that he fails to measure up to the legal and moral caliber required for the lofty eminence of the Supreme Court. When moral timidity is added to his other deficiencies, his failure to measure up to the standard is made the more conspicuous. The only reason for President Hoover's nomination of Judge Parker would seem to be political, on the theory that the appointment of a Supreme Court judge from the South would help to split the solidity of that section. Apparently Mr. Hoover still believes that the South voted for him and not merely against Governor Smith. The confirmation of Judge Parker would confirm Mr. Hoover in his mistaken view of election results and probably lead to further tangles. NEW MUNICIPAL JUDGES. When Governor Roosevelt signed the Rivers bill, which created the Tenth Municipal Court district and added judges to other sections of Manhattan, a persistent and protracted struggle, for judicial relief achieved its result. For five years at least a bill to relieve the congested conditions of the present municipal court district has been introduced. Five times it was passed by both houses and then vetoed by the Governor for political reasons. The present bill, which creates eight more municipal court justices in Manhattan, was approved because the political benefits will accrue to both parties. One of the reasons why Governor Smith vetoed a similar bill so persistently was because of the fact that the creation of a new district in Harlem will make it possible for the colored voters to elect two municipal judges from their own group, as they did this year with the aldermen and assemblymen. The prize of two judgements opened to candidates of the race will undoubtedly bring forth a number of aspirants among the members of the legal profession residing in this district, many of whom are qualified by experience and legal attainments to fill the position. When Governor Roosevelt signed the rivers bill, which created the Tenth Municipal Court district and added justice to other sections of Manhattan, a patient and protracted struggle, for joy relief achieved its result. For cars at least a bill to relieve the congestion conditions of the present municipal court district has been introduced. Ifhes it was passed by both houses then vetoed by the Governor for political reasons. The present bill, which created more municipal court justices The term of the new judges will be for ten years and their election will take place in November of this year. In the meantime we may expect a great grooming of candidates and the pulling of many political wires to capture the two nominations, which it is expected will come to the race by virtue of numbers and political strength. Character and legal capacity are indispensable in the consideration of all candidates for the nominations, but even with the most rigid requirements there will be quite a number of strong candidates available for a choice. It should not be forgotten that the benefits of racial representation were clearly demonstrated in the passage of this bill, which was introduced by Assemblyman Francis E. Rivers, who carefully steered it through the legislative channels that made it a law. Although serving his maiden term, Assemblyman Rivers was successful in accomplishing considerable in the way of legislation. His colleague, Assemblyman Perkins, also succeeded in getting his measure for the protection of tenants passed by both houses despite the opposition of the landlords. With the demonstrated advantages of representation in such legislative bodies as the state legislature and the Board of Aldermen, it is only natural that the next step should be the election of members of the judiciary. FORMER SENATOR CHANGES MIND. The announcement that Former Sen- or Joseph S. Frelinghuysen of New Jersey has changed his mind on the subject of Prohibition is significant. Mr. Freling huysen who is again a candidate for the Senatorship, has for ten years espoused the cause of Prohibition and worked in the enforcement of the amendment through legislation. After ten years'* experience and study of the effect of su- laws, he has changed his mind and no- favors the repeal or amendment of the Eighteenth amendment or the modifi- cation of the Volstead act. In making a position clear to the voters of New Jersey, Mr. Frelinghuysen pledged hims- on the matter of prohibition in the fou- ling terms: "I will vote if elected, to submit to a people through the method provided by Constitution any resolution proposing the peal or amendment of the Eighteenth Am- endment which will carry out national conti- nental the elimination or private profit and the protection of the saloon." The significance of Mr. Frelinghuysen change of attitude on this question is a dedicated by the reasons he gave. He he- lives that the law has developed new a- grave evils and has encountered virtu- impossibility of enforcement. His co- vage in making his change of belief know- to the voters is commendable. As a member of the Senate he voted for the Eighteenth amendment because he believed would destroy the corruption of the equor interest and bring about social, economic and moral benefits. He voted the Volstead act in order to make the amendment effective. He finds now that after ten years' of perience public sentiment has not criti- zated in favor of any specific plan modification, although there is widespread dissatisfaction with existing condition. His judgment is that those who desi- t use alcoholic beverages should be allowed to do so under conditions of national control that would eliminate the element of private profit and prevent the return of the saloon. If elected, however Mr. Frelinghuysen would support all re- sponsible measures for the enforcement the law so long as the Eighteenth amen- tment and the Volstead act are in effect. There seems to be an increasing de- position among leading Republicans to pudiate the rule of the fanatical dry e- ment of the party at any cost. The announcement that Former Senator Joseph S.

The almost universal demand for vocational training in various parts of the civilized world, as a remedy for the economic ills of unemployment and over production, is a vindication of the position taken by the late Dr. Booker T. Washington as an apostle of industrial education this country. Indeed, before his dea Dr. Washington was recognized abro The almost universal demand for vocational training in various parts of the civilized world, as a remedy for the economic ills of unemployment and over production, is a vindication of the position taken by the late Dr. Booker T. Washington as an apostle of industrial education in this country. Indeed, before his death Dr. Washington was recognized abroad as the leading exponent of the theory of training both the hands and the brains in order to make every member of the community a self-supporting unit and an asset instead of a liability. In his own country and among his own people Dr. Washington is slowly coming into recognition as an original thinker, whose solution of the economic problems of the race is being adopted in theory if not in practice. One trouble with the matter of vocational training is that most people think that industrial education means merely scrubbing floors, cooking and making beds, in the case of girls, or for boys doing sme wrk with a saw and a hammer in a carpenter shop, or some work of a more primitive type than that. They have no idea of the number of occupations in the skilled trades requiring technical COMMENTS BY THE AGE EDITORS ON SAYINGS OF OTHER EDITORS knowledge and trained hands. And these trades pay better wages than the compensation earned by the white collar occupations of the typist, clerk or bookkeeper. Even the cook, if he is a good one, is sure of a good paying job and sufficient to eat when others are being laid off. The advocates of vocational training are learning better how to interpret the term so that they may not shock the sensibilities of those people who have been averse to industrial education. After all, it must be recognized that the majority of any people must be employed in the trades and the ranks of labor, both skilled and unskilled. Only the minority can secure the necessary training and the skill to prepare them for the learned professions. Although a proper ratio of professional men to population has not yet been Noting the increasing number of graduates of our educational institutions, who have made liberal donations to the schools from which they graduated, the Africa-American Presbyterian said: These are hopeful signs for our colleges. White colleges and universities get much of their financial support from the alumni, either directly or indirectly. While the graduates of Negro colleges, years ago, were able to contribute but little to the financial support of our educational institutions, they are now becoming more and more able to do so, if they will. William B. Chamblis, a graduate of Tuskegee, set a good example for other graduates of his alma mater, and alumni of other schools, in bequeathing to Tuskegee before his death, in 1928, $55,000 for the erection of what is called the New Chamblis 'House for elementary pupils of the Tuskegee Institute Community.' This building was dedicated April 2. Other alumni, not only of Tuskegee but of other institutions also, would do well to follow the example of William Chamblis in this respect. It will be recalled that not so long ago, Fisk University fell heir to the estate of one of its first graduates, estimated to be worth over one hundred thousand dollars. The Black Worker is the official organ of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters and is published twice a month with ca. Philip Randolph as editor. In the issue of April 1 it treated the subject of "Unemployment and Trade Unions" as follows: Unemployment is not new. It is as old as the machine age which began with the industrial revolution in the latter part of the 20th century. There are four types: Residual, seasonal; cyclical and technological. It is estimated there are always a million wage earners unemployed in America. This is residual unemployment. In the building, the construction, and seasonal unemployment tomes over and anon. Overproduction, that is, the tendency of the wage earners to produce more than they can buy back with their inadequate wages gives us cyclical unemployment. And because of the rapid and amazing development in the invention of 1000 machines, operated by one or more men that are able to do the work of construction, the biological unemployment. What is the remedy? Not charity, doles, or any form of temporary relief. The basic remedy is reduction of hours of work which will, result in the absorption of the unemployed to a very large degree. Today in America, less than 5,000,000 wage earners benefit from the 8 hour day. A very small section benefit from the five-day week. Let there be an employer. If the 8-hour day are universal, 'nor will the five day week come until the wage earners themselves organize into trade unions, which is the only weapon with which the shorter work day and work week can be secured. Pullman porters labor nearly 400 hours per month. All other transportation employees have the 240 hour work month. The Big-Four Brotherhood workers have and thereby get pay for overtime and make more work for extra porters is to join the Brotherhood. Whether a universal eight hour day would finally solve the problem of unemployment remains to be seen, but eight hours should be the limit of a workday for every worker. A visit through the eastern part of Iowa convinced the editor of the Des Moines Iowa Bystander that there are some encouraging signs to be noted politically, but that the unemployment situation is working hardship among the laboring classes, including most Negroes. He summed up as follows: 1. The people have come to realize that the state of Iowa is far behind in giving proper recognition to Negroes in the state government. There is an earnest desire to learn Beverly, May 8, 1930 met among Negroes the professional men have not been evenly distributed according to population. This contributes to make an excess in certain communities, while there is a dearth of them in others. The extension of vocational training would work to the advantage of those of our youth who are not fitted by mental capacity or inclination for the pursuit of higher education. Sometimes these pupils are termed "manual minded" and are capable of good work in any occupation that calls for skilled hands. Then there are the over-age pupils who constitute something of a problem at times, but who may reveal an aptitude for manual training. As the Father of Vocational Training, Booker Washington may have builted better than he knew, in providing for the needs of the youth of all races. the records and inclinations of candidates in this election and a firm determination to fight and help defeat those candidates who fail to measure up. They feel that they have been fed on beautiful sentiment, long enough. 2. There are altogether too many places where nice protection is the reason for political support whereby one or two Negroes are permitted to operate a den where the young boys and girls are permitted to loiter and rub shoulders with the thugs and thieves of the town. This is a most unfortunate situation. 3. To correct the conditions mentioned above, it is highly essential that the better class of Negroes take a leading part in the campaigns, for it is often too late to complain of these things after the election is over. In all sections the thinking people are beginning to realize the serious part that politics plays in moral and material conditions. In a scathing editorial, headed "Pernicious Activity in Politics," the Atlanta Independent scored the tactics of the 'Federal office holders elected delegates to the Georgia Republican State convention. It said among other things: Every federal-officeholder who comes to the State Convention contesting a civilian's right to a seat ought to be sat upon with a dull thud. Federal officeholders are not fighting for party growth, but for federal "pie" for themselves. It is, "damn the party, if I can't get my mouth on the pie." The officeholding gang are growing desperate to hog the offices. They are being a gang about the Republican Party's pretensions of Civil Service Reform are a fraud and a sham. Federal patronage is being boldly offered in this state for party support, and the Independent Intends to demand a civil service investigation. The desire for power on the part of the Republican Party is laying the foundation for a democratic victory in November. Benjamin Jefferson Davis, former Republican National Committee man is editor of the Independent, and according to a writer in the Macon Telegraph, a Democratic daily paper, he "has licked the white administration crowd in this state." According to the Baltimore Afro-American, "Virginia's new law declares every person with one drop of Negro blood-a Negro isn't new at all." It continued: It represents the principle of race classification current over the whole United States. To be sure, this policy differs from the race classification methods pursued abroad where light brown colored mixed-bloods are termed white, and the dark mixed-bloods, colored. This accounts for the difficulties New York is having with 15,000 Pico Ricanito babies, whom have regarded themselves as "white" all their lives only to find out that they are "colored" in New York. Similarly Virgin Islanders are complaining to Washington that census enumerators there are instructed to list as Negroes all persons having a discernable percentage of colored blood. Since ninety-five per cent of all the islanders are of Negro or Negro-affiliated Indians, they never considered themselves colored, Uncle Sam has stirred up bitterness and hatred where none existed here-tofore. Thoroughly disgusted long age with our country's racial policy, and likewise convinced of the absurdity of the one-drop-theory, the Afro-American has no sympathy with Uncle Sarn'in his present difficulties. We know, and we have pointed out, that the headache given him by Porto Rico and the Virgin Islands is but a slight attack of the vertigo the race question will give, give him before it is through with him. The system of race and color classification puruated in the census returns is so confused, and misleading as to render all figures affecting the colored population of doubtful value. The Louisville News, celebrated the possession of an old criminal lawyer of the race in that city in a legislative editorial, which read as follows: Louisville has been, very fortunate in having a number of good civil lawyers, colored, but there has been, since the death of Albert St. White, a very few good criminal lawyers, colored. Happily we have developed and progressed to the point in business, transactions where good civil lawyers of the race can earn their livelihoods by or with their professions. But it has long been painful to persons interested in such matters to see so much of the criminal law practice lost to colored lawyers. But as that situation has changed, Louisville now has a criminal lawyer of ability and intelligence who can command the respect of Judge* and jury and opposing counsel. THE WEEK OF MAY 3 Astrologically Considered BY "THEARCHER" Those who begin a new birthyear on, May 3 will find it possible to mark worth while, progress in many ways. Some changes in the family and domestic circle are indicated. Those who travel and follow professional vocations will find-the year very full of opportunities, but very likely-to be quite concerned for the health of a very close member of the family. The birthyear for May 4 promises rather worth while financial progress, but it seems that the money will not be thoughtfully used unless particular effort is made to spend wisely as well as save. The affairs of a parent or of one who has the place of a parent will be the employment and business are indicated, but all changes should be very carefully considered. May 5 certainly promises the spiritual and material help of those who are in a position to aid the people of today for this birthyear. Those who are employed or in employment are the most helpful to hold on. Real progress can be made if earnest effort is exerted. Those who begin a new birthyear on May 6 will need the utmost poise and patience. Those who are employed should consider well any changes that are to be made, for something not as good as expected. Those who are to the folks of today. Loss of honor and reputation can be incurred through thoughtless speech, letters, and actions. Worthwhile progress and plans for the future can be made by the people of May 7 in the new birthyear. Those who can depend upon the people of May 7 are pointed. Those who have money to invest should go to a reliable bank, and it is well not to go make any purchases on the deferred payment plan. Those who pay as CIVIL SERVICE OPPORTUNITIES (From N. Y.

The state examination for stenographer, group A and B, and typist, will be held May 10. Also the examination for probation officer, Court of General Sessions, New York county, to be held by the State Department of Service on May 10. An attractive number of candidates.

The State of New York. Hold marty competitive examinations throughout its state during the month of May. For information and application forms write the State Civil Service Commissioner, State House, Trenton, N. J. Some of the examinations follow: clerk, clerk-typist, stenographer, guard, patrolman, elephant trainer, playground instructor, license inspector, secretary and matron. The Federal Civil Service will hold examinations for planning clerk, X-ray mechanician, industrial economist and agricultural economist. For information and information and application forms write to the U. S. Civil Service Office, Custom House, New York City. There is a strong move in the civil service to place the non-competitive positions in the Department of Hospitals and Department of Public Welfare in the competitive class. There are close to 12,000 such jobs in the Hospitals and many in the public Welfare. 300 were certified throughout New York City for appointment last week; also about 75 were certified for city labor positions. No. 18 was the last eligible appointed from the list for elevator This man is Dr. E. C. Tucker, who although a pastor of a church—Semper's Chapel—is also a year of real training and ability. Always Dr. Tucker has won a high place in the respect of the various judges, prosecutors and court attaches. One thing must be said of the local courts and that is colored lawyers, knowing the law and using that knowledge, can get a fair break. No man need be afraid to employ a colored lawyer for fear that he will be treated in the treatment at hands of any Louisville judge. Now with Dr. Tucker in the criminal law justice and a dozen others in civil law, a brighter day for colored clients is appearing. Not the least gratifying part of this statement relates to the disposition of the judges. With juries of equal fairness and courage justice should be served in the courts of Louisville. they go will gain in the end. Money should not be liganded or borrowed. The birthyear for May 8 indicates that mental progress can be made. Some changes in the employment or business will affect the health care should be taken to avoid incidents in crowded places or in traveling. The health should be guarded. Much progress can be made if patience and the best of judgment are used. The vibrations are rather intense, and will include people of today to nervous activity. The next paragraph has much meaning for the people of today. The birthyear for those who were born on May 9 will be rather full of tendencies to extravagance and thoughtless actions unless effort is made to use poise. Travel is怕热 of today. Great care should be used in handling machinery, motor cars, fire, explosives, and chemicals. Those who are careful not to quarrel or engage in political disputes will find that the year car will be very strong spiritual force; will help those who have patience and faith. The intense vibrations are like dynamite in effect, and this force can be used to build or to destroy the mind and body, those who own property should be aware that the insurance premiums are paid up.

A., Community House Athletic League, marking the climax of the most successful basketball season in the existence of the League, will be held Saturday evening, May 3, at the West 133th Street Branch Y, M. C. A. At this time the members of the victorious teams in three divisions will be presented with gold basketballs and the organizations they represent with trophies. The popularity and success of the League might be measured by the interest shown by community citizens in donating the team trophies. One trophy will bear the name of Watt Terry, identified with the Terry Holding Company of 2380 Seventh avenue; another W. J. Gordon, tailor, recently moved to the corner of 135th street and Seventh avenue, and Johnny Jackson, restaurant proprietor of 2285 Seventh avenue; a third trophy will carry the name of the Auduboh Club, one of the popular social clubs for young men in Harlem. To Aybysinian "Unlimited" goes the honor of the Terry Trophy by virtue of their winning the play-off for the championship with the "V" after registering six victories and two defeats. This team was made up of Purvis, Fletcher, Pimble, Butler, Williams, Corbin, Bushby and F. Williams under the direction of Brooks. The competition in this division was keenest because of the near equality of Aybysinian, the "V" and St. Jude.

Professionals With three men on bases and no one out. Bill Holland struck out three batters in 11 row and saved the second game for the Lincoln Giants at Protectory Oval Sunday, April 27. It was the ninth inning of the contest with the Philadelphia Professionals. The score was 6-5 in favor of the Giants but Munch started a rally for the Phillies which caused things to look dark for the local team. Manger Lloyd decided to relieve Luther Farrell, who was somewhat winded because of having had to run out a single just a few minutes before. Both the teams and fans were on edge as Holland came in with the base's filled and everyone present was thrilled by his superb exhibition of pitching. It was not until the eighth inning that the Lincoln's got the lead in this contest Cummings for the Phillies pitched a great game and up to the eighth inning the heavy hitters in the Giants lineup had only gotten six scattered hits. In the eighth, Beckwith singled and Cannady hit a home run, tying the score. The winning run was made by Billy Yance, who scored from third on a single by Farrell. Another feature of this game was some excellent fielding by "Turkey" Stearnes. Stearnes made two seemingly impossible catches, causing double plays. In defeating the Philadelphia Professionals the Lincoln Giants ran their record to eight straight victories. In the first game of the double-header they defeated the New Brunswick nine by a score of 17-9. This contest was featured by home runs by Clint Thomas and Yancey.

HOW DO YOU FIGURE THAT OUT? CAUSE I DON'T LIKE LEMON MERINOUE PIE! American News Features, Inc. MARK HELLINGER WONDERS WHAT MILLER AND LYLES THINK OF AMOS 'N' ANDY Commenting in the Daily Mirror on the nation-wide craze of radio hitters for Amos n' n' Andy, Mark Hellinger, popular columnist, says that he often wonders why Miller and Lyles haven't registered a squawk long before this. The article follows: A newspaper clipping on my desk goes into cestashes about Amos n' n' Andy and lists a few of that team's contributions to American slang. Here are a few of them: "I used regist." "Aint dumpun?" "Sho, sho," "Is I blue?" "Unlax," "Sustationation" "I ain't gonna do it." Far be it from me to harbor any doubts about such a great American institution as Amos n' n' Andy, but it seems to me that these two boys are cashing in very heavily on something that the Messrs Miller and Lyles originated many years ago. It seems顺应 to me that the Miller and Lyles have registered that squawk before this. Miller and Lyles are two colored men who have been Broadway comedy stars for years. One is tall and employs a deep voice. The other is short and delivers lines in a nervous sort of a squeak. For more years than I care to remember I can recall Miller and Lyles using lines like, "I is absolutely regulated wit you" "It all depends on de kine of catchation you is in." And many others of similar construction. So similar, in fact, that the resemblance is almost uncanny. If Miller and Lyles were substituted for Amos' n' Andy some night, I would defy anyone to detect the difference All the credit in the world to Amos' n' Andys. Ever since last August, they have had this nation in hysteries. But, as I time in on them and see my neighbors going into fits of laughter, I often wonder what Miller and Lyles are thinking about the amazing success of Amos' n' Andys.

Saturday 8 p.m. NEWS ABOUT WOMEN EVERY-DAY TALKIES FOR EVERYBODY With the talkies becoming increasingly popular, the natural voice is now being rated an asset or liability. Many a former luminary of the screen has been forced into the background because the voice failed to register satisfactorily. It becomes the duty of all then, not only professionals, to consider the importance of cultivating a pleasing voice. Women, and particularly women of the race group, generally conceded to possess the most musical utterance, should strive hard for the mastery of the art of a pleasing voice. The following are a few brief rules necessary, in acquiring the art of pleasing conservation and incidentally a pleasing personality, that indefinable something called (1) Speak in it, distinct, well modulated voice, but avoid loud talking. A low sweet voice is one of woman's greatest charms and will never fail to win her the admiration of men. (2) Remember, "Brevity is the soul of wit; therefore speak little but speak well if you would be thought a person of good sense" (3) Express yourself simply and clearly; avoid all attempts at elegance or pomposity. Use the shortest and plainest words you can, and when you have said all you desire to say—Stop (4) It is not necessary to express your opinion on all subjects, but if you give utterance to them, do so fearlessly, frankly and with courteous regard for the opinion of others. (5) Never give short or sharp answers in ordinary conversation. To do so is simply rude. "I do not know," or "I can not tell, are the most harmless words possible, and yet they may be rendered very offensive by the tone and manner in which they are uttered. Never reply in answer to a question like the following—Did Mrs Jones tell you how Mrs Brown was getting on? —I did not ask. It is almost like saying, "I never ask important questions, though you do. I mean, in the world without them I first acquired about them. If you must say you did not ask, say that you forget to ask," unneglected it, or "did not think of it." We can always be ordinarily civil, even if we can not always be absolutely wise. (01) Allude to any one as a "party" or a "gent", and above all, refrain from any of the vulgarisms to which some persons have recourse, when they cannot recollect the name of a person, place thing. Can anything be more elegant than such a sentence athus? "Oh, yes. I met what's name driving that what's it of his down by the you know, close to what-you-callin' house." Yet this kind of remark is heard every day. (7) Talk of your self and your own affairs as little as possible. Above all, never dracn in the names of distinguished persons to whom you may be related, or who may be numbered. Along your friends, nothing is more vulgar or offensive. (8) Restrain any desire to shine, and be most particular not to monologue the conversation. It is presumptuous in one person to attempt to lead the conversation and much more to monologue it. (9). Always look people in the face when you speak to them, not doing it is thought to imply conscious guilt. Besides that, you have the advantage of observing by their countenance what impression your discourse makes upon them. (10) Never forget to always control your temper. Encourage to be cool and steady on all occasions; the advantages of such a steady calmness are innumerable and would be tedious to state. It may be acquired by care and reflection, of it could not, then that reason which distinguishes them from brutes would be given us to very little purpose. On the other hand, you need not give a universal assent to all that you hear said in companies; such an assent would be mean, and in some case criminal; but blame with indulgence and correct with gentleness. Have a mind of your own do not compel anyone to say to you, "Do, please, differ from me just so, show that there are two of us."

IN WOMEN'S REALM Spring Cleaning Hints To Clean Furs—Some women think that, when spring comes, if they put away their furs safely in moth balls, wrapped tightly in old newspapers, and then in pillowcases, they have done all that is necessary. But furs should first be carefully brushed the right way of the fur with a soft brush, and then an old linen or silk cloth should be folded smoothly over them, instead of the stiff paper that mars the fur. They, then; may be stored away after camphor or any of the moth repellents are scattered over them. More harm, however, is often done to furs by wearing them when the sun shines warm in the early spring than during the whole of winter, for it soon makes them shabby. POET'S CORNER LET IT PASS. Has it been a weary day? Let it pass; Lots of others on the way—They will pass. Soon the skies will start to lighten All around begin to brighten— And misfortunes cease to frighten— Let It Pass. Does the world the wrong way rub you? Let it pass Does your best friend seem to snub you? Let it pass Let me pass Chances were mistaken None are ever quite foresaken; All for 'naught your faith was shaken. Let It Pass.—(Unknown.) What's The Mode By AUDREY This pring, for example, everything is feminine Classic tailored suits, sport clothes, even sweaters, though the most practical and workmanlike, are softenen by dancy manlike, and pretty colors so that they remove even the faintest boyish resemblance from the chic sportswoman. Pastel blues, pinks and greens in Shantung silks and soft surfaced wooden are the most popular materials for the smart sport togs of the season. The silhouette follows the higher waist line and longer skirt rule that govern the proportions of the more formal clothes, but it is adapted so as to allow the ease and freedom of movement required by athletic activities. Bags and shoes match, and many of the leading shop features bags and shoes of the same material and color. Most of the chic hats have the turned-up brims and, strangely enough, they are becoming to most of us. Love and Marriage By ETHEL R. Introduction by. Correspondence, O. K.

Senator Brokhart says that Perry Howard received $250 for the National Republican campaign fund in 1934, and he also weed. The Senator is mixed up on this also. The National Committee didn't get $50. The facts are these: While Howard was away on a Republican campaign tour in 1934 this $250 came to his office, and he was there to end the end of the campaign, but finding it there, he promptly tendered it to the National Committee, but the campaign hung over, and there being some trouble about irregularities in the collection of campaign information with others was ordered returned, and this $250 was promptly returned to A.

The reduction is not gen- er to berths that are used as section occupied by passengers traveling PULLMAN JOINS CUT RATE BRIGADE In spite of the fact that it virtually has a monopoly of the type of business it sells, the Pullman Company has a last entered the field of the cut-rate merchant. This is disclosed by notices placed in Pullman cars announcing that, beginning on May 1, there will be a reduction of 22 per cent in the rates of upper berths in sleeping cars. The reduction is not general, however, for it will apply only to berths that are used as sections, and then only when these are occupied by passengers traveling alone, as in the following case: The passenger purchases a ticket for a lower berth. After boarding the car he decides that he would like to have the use of a section. This he may secure by buying the upper berth at a reduced rate. The upper and lower berths make a seat. But the reduced rate may only be in case the section is to be occupied by himself. Where two are traveling toer, the reduction will not pre- But even this concession, in its berth rates is a radical departure in salesmanship for the Pullman Company, notwithstanding that, it is the railroader's business. But, unlike the railroads, it has no competitors in the travel field. Therefore, on the surface, this reduction seems somewhat surprising. But to those who know the business of the company the move is not at all astonishing. As a matter of fact, these persons see a real necessity for the move. In the last five years Pullman's business has shown a steady decline. According to the company's fiscal statement of traffic and operating statistics, ending December 31, 1929, and sent to stockholders of the company for review, the statement shows the following gures, among other times of operation. In 1925 there were operated 8,238 cars.

In 1927, cars operated were 8,952; net revenue therefrom was $10,399,197. For 1928, are given 9,248 cars; net revenue as $10,938,059. For the year* of 1929, cars operated were 9,529, and their net revenue was $18,159,89. Compared with the number of cars seen that each year-since 1925 has shown a fiscal decrease. The report further shows that the net revenue per passenger in 1925 averaged 35 cent; in 1926, 31 cent; in 1927, 29 cent; and in 1929, 27 cent per cent; and in 1929, 27 per cent the lowest in earnings of all. The statement explains, however, that the low mark of net earnings for 1929 came as a result of increased expenditures, principally the heavier maintenance expenditures and less favorable car service contracts with important railroads, made prior to the great change in operating conditions and costs that have been revised in recent years, the statement adds, are being revised or renewed on terms more favorable to the company. But leaving technical figures and explanations aside, there are reasons as to why such are required. The earnings of the Pullman car have declined in recent years. These reasons are obvious even to the porters. The first is the railroad surcharge The second is the fact that never been removed, has been the means of the Pullman Company losing many dollars, especially in its chair car and seat service. Many are the passengers who travel with the Pullman fifty-mile ride in a Pullman car, but who demurate at having to cough up an additional twenty-five cents for the privilege. Consequently, the arrange is lost to the Pullman car because of this extra taxation. Another instance to which may be ascribed loss of revenue is the system that the railroads now have to supervise the sleeping cars on a train where six of their cars would be quite adequate for the number of passengers carried. In other words, the railroads are full of Pullman cars on some of their trains. Two of the best known trunk lines in America are good examples of their practice. It might truthfully be said that there isn't much comfortably accommodate these roads, main terminal points but couldn't comfortably accommodate all its passengers with from two to three cars less than four. It can comprise the trains made up, holidays excluded, of course. You may ask, in what way does this effect Pullman earnings? Why, the explanation is easy. If a passenger commutes two-times辛苦, it operates ten months in the year and is built for that purpose, yet with an average of thirteen payoffs it result in its earnings is obvious. Well, you might say, why do the railroads do this, since they are equally losers? Why do they do they do? Why do they do? These heavy cars are the railroads do this, since they are tear on motor power, to say nothing about road-dedbs. The surmise here is that it is done for advertising purposes, and nothing else. Why do they do? The two roads in mind, hence it is assumed that each wishes to have it appear that the volume of its traveling business warrants the number of cars. Then again the accident that filled car from running at a dead loss, so why should they worry? But in the meantime, this does not help the Pullman end of the "heavy" car end. So, it is not difficult to understand how the Pullman Company operated 8,631 cars in 1928 against 8,238 in 1929, yet the metronome of that year that of 1928. Today there are certain Western trains, running out of New York, whose porters set-dom have to make down an upper birth. The sale of all lowers brings the putting on of an extra car. It is not to be wondered at that the formerly independent Mr. Pullman has other bargain offers and cut-rate tradesmen in his car service business. Apparently the railroads are driving him to it. At any rate, his plausibility upon a plausibly upper berths may be utilized more.

We regret that some of our boys waited until the last trip to be caught happing. Our reporter in Miami writes us the following: The Star Miamian Crew was relieved last night of their watches and shoes at the annex of the Mage's hardest hit. He lost his watch and chain and all his money. But the thing that hurts us most was to see our old friend, W. G. Thobbs leave the morning with a pair of bedside bedroom and Thobbs said that it seemed that everybody was up and out on the street that morning to see him go by. But the thing that made him laugh was the boy who said: "Some style these boys brought to Miami from New York." Of course we all know, got old friend, W. Kearney is a wise boy. "Now we understand from some of the boys that Kearney told them going down that trip to be on their guard as anything was liable to heap, and Kearney split their watch, seemingly protected each other. We often wonder why C. E. Davis didn't make this last trip. The following men have just been taken up for service out of Penn Terminal; E. E. Thompson, S. Sarkalee, J. Warren, L. Gardner, M. Mackenzie, A. Pauling, G. Jeter. A word to that young men entering our service—the new man is usually a little strange when he tackles his job; unusual surroundings and new faces are used.

Wasson of the school by representatives from the given districts. Indeed, so large was the attendance, and so determined in spirit was each representative that this meeting, that it appeared in the beginning of the meeting as though this feeling would develop an unpleasant attitude, due to certain technicalities, which were not included in the programs. Those technicalities, which are the features not to be passed over lightly ever by the dear brother, in any meeting, were finally agreed upon, and then proceeded with the amity of a love feast. It was definitely 'decided that Abyssinian Baptist Church, the religious home in which the exercises have been held for the past two years, would be the scene of the services. The date on which they would be held, however, was not named, this being a matter which are dependent upon conditions which are within the church. But it is hopeful that a committee on applications that the edifice and its paster, the Rev. Dr. Powell, will be available for the services some Sunday around Memorial Day period. But no matter on which date they are held, the program for the event promises to be the most impressive ever attempted by these two incomprehensible departed members. Aside from the musical part of it, which will be rendered by the church's choir, the Pulman Porter Band, the Heavenly Light Quad of Hoboken district, and the O'Connor position of Chicago, the speakers, outside of the pastor, are expected to be Grand Chairman Perry Parker, the most influential Negro in the Pulman employment, and Assistant Manager P.

Bannister, the first Negro in the Filipino community to be appointed to the position of traveling porter-instrument, with headquarters in Philadelphia, has been paying Mott Haven Yards district a visit for several days; during which time he has given a few lectures to the port authority, insiderly, gleaned some impressions regarding these employees. When seen on Wednesday evening, April 23, by this correspondent, Mr. Bannister was asked to state some of his impressions regarding the experience with these Pullman supervisors, his reply was: "You know one of the principal tenets of Pullman rules is that employees are not be discussed for publication. The impressions I gained here are not in a written statement to my immediate superior, Mr. Ransone. I did, however, furnish Pullman-instructor Mingo with a copy of that statement. If he wishes to let you read it that will be his business, however, without violating that rule to any extent: I am much pleased with the morale of the New York porters. I found them, on the whole, to be an excellent body of men in their attentivity both towards the service and the supervisors. I need hardly add that Instructors Mingo and Hunter are doing meritorious work. I might also add that the porters in this district will find Assistant Manager George Square in his dealings with them. He gave me reason for this conclusion." The ministerial-looking instructor wouldn't discuss the subject any further, but, the impression this correspondent received was that his transport to his child was most credible to the New York district.

Senator Brookhart Speaks At Georgia State College Savannah, Ga., Speaking at the regular vexer exercise at the Georgia State Industrial College, United State Senator Smith, Wr., Brookhart College, gave a high attribute to the work being done at this institution under the leadership of Benjamin Hubert. He stated that education is a foundation of every kind of progress. Among other things he said most of the trouble in the world throughout the ages, has been due to the lack of education. —Socrates, was a great man but the ignorant masses put him to death because they failed to understand and appreciate his ideals. —Jesus Christ was crucified because of ignorance. —Suffition, of the world and the stile betweenen has come out because the people did not have the real efforts of tpic education. "The Declaration or Independence started men to think about equal treatment, and equal opportunity. This spirit has grown all over the world, that we need today to live in all that we know, and the education for everyone. I believe in all kinds of education but I appreciate the fact that the education that counts largely in our every-day life is the vocational education. I look forward to the time, when every man has the opportunity to work well and there will be something for every man to do. In this great cooperative society that I vision everyone, is educated to the limit of his ability, everyone respects the rights of others and there will be opportunity for everyone. Washington was a great leader. It was my happy privilege to know him. He taught the world the value of practical education. It is a peculiar source of joy to see you here carrying forward the ideals of this great leader, congratulate the students of Georgetown worthy leadership as is being demonstrated, here in this institution."
