Farewell Ceremony For Gold Star Mothers Held on Deck of American Merchant at Its Dock in Hoboken
President Chapman of U. S. Lines Is Master of Ceremonies In Impressive Service; The Ship Is First Class and Not Freighter The farewell ceremony for the Negro Gold Star Mothers enroute to visit their sons' graves in France were held Saturday morning, July 12, on board the steamship American Merchant of the American Merchant Line, a subsidiary of the United States Lines. Paul W. Chapman, president of the United States Line, was in charge of the program. The ship was at Pier 4, Hoboken
Before the program started, a tour of inspection was made, led by Alderman Fred R. Moore of New York City and Col. Benjamin O. Davis, highest ranking Negro officer in the U. S. Army, who accompanied the mothers as government escort.
Both gentlemen expressed fullest satisfaction with the ship. Col. Davis, saying that it was one of the best he had ever been on or inspected.
Many detritory reports had been made about the ship, one New York calling it a. "freighter," and another saying it was a 13-day ship.
Is a First Cabin Ship
Alderman Moore following his visit over the ship, declared that none of these statements were true. The ship, he said, is a regular mail carrying ship of the America Merchant Line. It is a cabin ship, without second or third class cabins, each cabin having private bath with shower, and with every equipment for comfort. There is a spacious dining room, nicely furnished lounging room, and an ample equipment on the upper deck for recreational games and amusements. Emphasis was laid also upon the fact, that the American Merchant is a 7-day ship, and not a slow 13-day ship as has been charged. It is stated by Alderman Moore that the ship is first-class in every respect.
In his talk to the mothers, Captain Ernest F. Mitchell, master of the ship, assured the mothers that he and his entire crew had dedicated themselves to giving the passengers the very best service and consideration of which they were capable. He urged the mothers to regard the ship as their home while on the trip, and
Costly Home of Mme. Walker At Irvington For Sale
Tarrytown, N. Y.—Residents of this and adjoining towns in Westchester County were surprised last week to see a sign-on lawn of the expensive country home of Mme. Aliah Walker, announcing the property was for sale. The house has not been occupied, except for weekends, this summer, and reports have it that the expense of maintaining it have become so great the owner decided to give it up. Located on the state highway and commanding a beautiful view of the Hudson River, the house is one of the show places of Irvington—on the Hudson. It was built about twelve years ago by the late Mme. C.J. Walker from plans by Vertner Tandy, Harleprt's leading colored architect.
Mrs. Nettie Roach,
Real Estate Broker,
Dispossessed From Home
Evidence that the business depression is acute in Harlem is seen in the dispossess actions against several prominent business and professional people during the past week for non-payment of rent.
Tuesday, July 15, Mrs. Nettie Reach a well-known real estate broker and head of a leasing company was dispossessed from her three private house, the corner of 80th street and Ediecombe avenue. Her fine furniture was placed on sidewalk.
Last Thursday, Attorney Louis A. Little one of Harlem's oldest law firms sometimes a candidate for Compton now one of the candidate comment as a City Magistrate on the sidewalk front of 290 West 135th street. He had maintained an office for other dispossess actions other supposedly hard times.
hoped they would all have a happy and pleasant voyage.
The Farewell Ceremony
At 10:30 a.m., following the arrival of the Gold Star Mothers and their escort from the West 137th Street Y. W. C. A. Harlem, the farewell ceremony was opened by Fred H. House, past commander of the American Legion of Hoboken, who read telegrams from various American Legion Posts throughout the State of New Jersey, sending greetings to the Gold Star Mothers. A telegram from A. L. Bodenheimer, national commander of the American Legion, bid the mothers' bon voyage on behalf of the entire American Legion. Among the other messages were telegrams from Hoboken Post, No. 107, and the Hudson County Committee of the American Legion. After playing of the "Star Spangled Baner," Mr. Chapman spoke briefly, saying: "Mothers and Fathers—Sisters and Brothers—We are met today to pay our respects and to say adieu to our Gold Star Mothers, outward beyond to France, to there further sanctify the shrines of our loved and lost." He then introduced Major Gen. B. Frank Cheatham, U. S. Army, (retired), who was sent from Washington to accompany the mothers.
Gen. Cheatham took entitle responsibility for the government's action in sending the Negro mothers on a separate ship, denying that there was any intention to scerrege them, but rather that it was felt that they would be more comfortable and the mother Cheatham, it is said, instituted and sponsored the (Continued on page three)
$5,000 GIVEN FOR Y. M. C. A. WORK BY WHITE PLAINS MAN
By MAUDE DALTON
White's Plains, N. Y.—Announcement has been made to the Secretary of the Martine Avenue Colored Branch Y, M. C. A., by William H. White, one of the team workers for the membership drive that Theodore Jay Lee, of the Lee's Funeral Home will give, a one-year membership ticket to every colored Sunday school in Westchester County. It will in each case go to a deserving orphan who will be chosen by the pastor or superintendent. In addition, the company has given $5,000 for work among the colored people of the county. The total number of Sunday schools in the county number about 63.
Mr. Lee, for eleven years prior to the World War, was M. Y. C. A. worker, and at the opening of the war was selected by the National War Worker's Counsel of the M. Y. C. A. for Armv. Y. M. C. A. work at Camp Meade and later at Camp Eustis as executive secretary, where he served until the end of the year.
In addition to these gifts, Mr. Lee is also providing for 100 graves in the Emmanuel Cemetery for needy colored people. Until these 100 graves are used up, there will be no need for our people to be buried in a Potter's Field, or cast upon the public for burial.
On Sunday night, July 12, a baby daughter, weighing eight pounds, was born to Mfs. Nicole, wife of the Rev. Dr. D. Ward Nichols of 209 Fidgecombe avenue, pastor of Emanuel N. M. E. Church, 37-41 West 119th street. Both mother and child are doing nicely at the international Hospital, 2348 Seventh avenue, where they are being attended by Dr. Godfrey Nurse and Dr. Mac Chun. Dr Nichols is feeling like a "big preacher" these days.
FAKE "HINDUS" ARE ARRESTED FOR SWINDLING Two Men Charged With Stealing Thousands From Victims
Detectives Harry Bauerschmidt and David Salter, of the 6th Detective Division, operating under Capt. Louis Hines, made what they term one of the most important "arrests of their case" when, on Saturday, July 12, they apprehended three men who were charged with having swindled Harlemites out of thousands of dollars in the past two years by posing as Hindu priests, who had communication with dead relatives of their victims.
The men arrested are Orville Millwood, 33, (alias Al Brown) of 811 St. Nicholas avenue, born in the West Indies; Victor Davis, 31, of 90 Wadsworth avenue, born in Cuba, and Arthur, Walker, 33, of 303 West 154th street, born in the West Indies.
Got $2,311 From Woman
The charge upon which they were arrested was made by Mrs. Olive Dean of 14 West 119th street. She said that on May 13 as she was entering her apartment she met Davis, who inquired about some man named "Brown." She knew nothing about the man asked for, but Davis talked on, and told her he had just won $13,000 through information given him by a Hindu priest. He offered to bring the priest to see her.
The next day, May 14, Davis came back, accompanied by Millwood, who posed as a Hindu priest who could not speak English and Davis acted as an interpreter in the conversation with Mrs. Dean. Millwood took out a pad, from which he removed a sheet of paper. Then he sweets into alleged religious rites, passing the sheet to and from a lighted burner on the gas range. In a little while there appeared some writing on the paper, which, when read, said:
"My Dear Daughter: You can trust these men. They will make you wealthy. Do as they say. (Signed)
"YOUR DEAR DEAD MOTHER."
Mrs. Dean was then told by the pseudo Hindu priest; to draw some money from the bank so, that he could copy the numbers on the bills. She went to the Empire Savings' Bank at 123th street and withdrew $2,311, the man, Davis, accompanying her. Returning home, Millwood, pretended to copy the numbers, after which he put the money in an envelope.
Directing Mrs Dean to kneel in prayer, Millwood, tied a cord around her waist, and then fastened what was supposed to be the envelope with the money to the cord. Directing her not to stir of disturb the envelope for two hours, the men left. She waited nearly three hours, to be sure, and then opened the envelope
Found Only Waste Paper.
It contained only waste paper.
She identified Millwood and Davis as the two men who had victimized her and they have been identified by five other persons who were victims of a similar trick in sums that ranged from $853 to $5,000.
Henry S. Warner, real estate broker, 2366 Seventh avenue, who was "done" to the tune of $5,000 some two years ago, when he fell for a story of buried wealth over on Long Island, has identified Milwood and Davis.
Others who have identified the two men are Herbert Reed of 40 West 127th street, who drew $1,695 from the Union Dime Savings Bank on May 12, 1930, to have it disappear, in possession of all these West 113st street, Brown of 31 West 113st street, lost $833 on March 21, 1929, in a similar way, Elmeon Jordan of 1 Parade place, Brooklyn, was victimized to the extent of $2,537 on December 19, 1928, and Abraham Harris of 319 East 101st street, lost $4,000.
The third man arrested, Walker was not identified by any of the victims, and so was released on Monday morning by Judge Goodman in the 5th District Court. Millwood and Davis were held without bail for the grand jury.
Mrs. Rosa L. Blocker of 236 West 12th street, one of the most prominent fraternal women in the country, being particularly active in the Daughter Elks, and underwent a minor operation on Thursday, July 3.
The operation was entirely successful and Mrs. Blocker has recovered to the extent that she is again active in connection with her various interests.

Acting Mayor McKee Grets Gold Star Women Who Are Sailing to France to Visit the Graves of Sons and Husbands Who Fall in the War
Misstatements Made to Bolster Up Charges of Segregation of Gold Star Mothers on French Pilgrimage
In efforts to bolster charges that the United States Government is practicing segregation in its handling of Colored and White Gold Star Mothers making the pilgrimage to war cemeteries in France, certain distortions of fact and misstatements concerning conditions were given wide publicity through some of the New York Dailies on the eve of the sailing of the first contingent of Negro mothers on the American Merchant of the American Merchant Line
One statement said that fifty-five mothers had written President Hoover, declining to make the trip. War Department officials stated that an examination of the records disclosed the fact that fourteen of these had already informed the government that they could not make the trip for various other reasons. It was also disclosed that all of the protests were made on a form-blank which had been supplied them from one central agency.
Only Seven Cancellations
Sixty-five mothers were scheduled to leave New York on July 12 for France and there were seven cancelations, the usual percentage, color or white, which finds it impossible at the last minute to make the trip.
Referring to agitation leading to have the colored mothers sent to France zlong with the white mothers, Patrick J. Hurley, Secretary of Wat, commented as follows:
"A request as been made that these Negro mothers and widows be placed in groups with white mothers and widows. The Wai Day Detective."
and windows. The War Department of course, has no objection to members of one group joining other groups provided they are welcomed by the groups concerned.
"If evidence is furnished of any member of any group wishing to join another group and who will at the same time be welcome by that group, the War Department will be glad to make the necessary arrangements."
"It must be understood, however, that any change must be predicated on the ability of the War Department to make satisfactory arrangements with the transportation companies and hotels."
Their Trip Costs More
With reference to a charge that cheaper boats were used for the Negro mothers, the War Department issued a statement that the actual cost to the United States for transportation of the colored mothers and widows will average more than for the white mothers. It was further stated that the United States Lines are being tried for both Negro and white pilgrims, and that no accommodations had been available with the Holland American Line, the North German Lloyd, the Cunard Line and Anchor Line, the International Mercantile Marine Company and the French Line.
Explaining that the War Department made no distinction between the Negro and white groups, Secrete-
jary Hurley said :
"After thorough study, the conclusion was reached that the formation of white and Negro groups of mothers and widows would best assure the contentment and comfort of the pilgrims themselves. No discrimination as between the various groups is contemplated. All groups will receive like accommodations at hotels and on steamships, and the representatives of the War Department will at all times be as solicitous of the welfare of the Negro mothers and widows as they will be of the welfare of those of the white race.
"The journey will be a severe tax on those making it, as it will take

Two Held As Drug Suspects After Arrests
Two men who gave their names as William Smith of 435 Prince street and Richard Clay of 390 New Lots avenue were held at Mark Rudick on Monday, July 7, in the New Jersey avenue court, as drug suspects following their arrest by Patrolman Harry Eggolt. The men are alleged to have had three packages of opium and morphine which it was claimed was taken from the bank Balk Balzerhein, 2004 Fulton street. One of the men's suspicious action is the cause of their arrest, according to the policeman who is attached to the Liberty avenue saw the men near the East New York station of the Long Is-Land Railroad. "What have you got in your pocket, a gun? Eggolt asked one of the men who held his hand in his coat pocket. He had a gun you wouldn't be asking me questions," retorted the suspect.
This aroused the cop's re and he searched both men and claimed that he found the drugs. Both are said to have long records

New York Gives Welcome To Gold Star Mothers
(Continued from page one)
the Negro mothers, on separate
ships from the white mothers.
Attacks War Department
After a warm greeting to the mothers, Alderman Moore, launched into a bitter attack on the War Department. He said, in parts are Americans—this flag here on the flag and no color line in it anywhere. When our boys went to France, they were fighting for Democracy—col of played no part—and when they came back, expected to find it, expected Liberality and equality unfulfilled. And had it. When the great 369th Infantry, the Old 15th New York Hell Fighters, came back and was the first body of troops to pass under the Victory Arch, they were tremendously greeted by the millions of people who thronged in the 25th street to Charlem—but that was the end of a Perfect Day.
"After that we went back from where we came, criticized, degraded and humiliated, but we have borne that with Christian fortitude, and with racial affiliations, should have gone together and established a kind and friendly relationship for the good of all. You are in the greatest and most cosmopolitan city in the world where color and part; more white, white and black, and all nationalities, are Americans together; where our school teachers are made up of all races. Gold Star Mothers, white and black, should be together. It would have developed a greater unity and a better understanding.
Proud To Be Negroes.
"We are tired of being regarded as *things*, but want to be regarded as human beings. We are proud that we are Negroes. Look at that flag. It is our flag. We have fought for it in every battle. When we were called and bared our breasts to the bullet of the enemy, and blasted like a bomb. The bullet did not pick out a white breast or a black breast—it struck down men. There was no color line in the bullets.
"I honor Mayor Walker. I was drawn to him because of his strong attitude against intolerance and racial discrimination of all people," Loisirah, the black hero of the Vestris disaster in December, 1928, he said. "I look upon you as a benefactor of humanity. I look upon you as a great human being, so great that you were willing to lay your life in your place, might be saved. I cannot but appreciate the splendid intelligence that you possess; the courage, the hardihood; and when we couple intelligence, courage, modesty and bravery, what difference does it make when you came, when you born, from what race you sprang?"
"That is what I want Americans to say to us—What difference does it make what your color is?" It is character that should be the guide. I do not want this administration to apologize to us. We are the face of the earth whose fares were paid to come and live in America. And so we do not want the War Department or the government to make any apologies to public steamship lines for the transportation of our black mothers. Engagements should have been made for Gold Star Mothers, black and white alike."
Alderman Moore expressed pleasure in the presence of Acting Mayor McKee, in absence of Mayor Walker, declaring him to be a man who, as does Mayor Walker, stands four-square by his color, is willing to help every man, and believes in no man down, but all men up."
Responds For Mothers
Mrs. Willie D. Rush of Atlanta Ga, whose son, Lieut. Rush, was killed in France on Armistice Day was then introduced as the representative of the Gold Star Mothers and she spoke as follows:
"Mr. Mayor, Members of the Reception Committee: It is not often, that a group of women assembled from Stirling have received such a welcome to the City of New York. We, as a delegation of Gold Star Mothers and Widows, are unique in this position, for it is the first time in the life of the government has taken an active part in making it possible for us to visit the graves of those who died in the war. It is an opportunity which, in all probability, most of us would be able to accomplish otherwise.
"We are glad that the time has come when the government is not so blinded by material things that they cannot see the bleeding people. The country RYSIXTEEN. . . has, made one massive move forward in healing the soreness caused by the loss of those whom we loved best. It is a pleasure to think of the provision and protec- tion we shall receive on this visit across.
"On behalf of the Gold Star Mothers and Widows, I wish to express to you, Mr. Mayor, gratitude for the hearty welcome from our guests, and for the receipt every courtesy and comfort possible. Each mother and widow present here today has been given a monument in her own life who will stand as long as she lives. We thank you for congratulations and for the care of us and for the warm hospitality you have so graciously extended."
A Pleasant Duty
BROOKLYN OFFICE: 53 SCHENECTADY AVENUE WALTER R. LOFTON, Editor
introduced and extended the mothers, a hearty and sincere welcome to the city. He said in part: "I become my pleasant duty to you and give my greeting to you on your arrival in the city and say a word of farewell to you as you embark upon your voyage to France. You are more than welcomed here in our city. We greet you with our greetings, the Golden Star-Mothers for we tell them you come to pay proud tribute to the boys that gave their all." You are going on a journey—that come to you today I know you are tinged with pride. We gave much in the World War. It wanted nothing for its great contribution toward a unity of people in colors and races. If our contribution was great, was great because of the tribute your boys gave to that war. You gave your sons so that the glory of this country might be held. Our boys died an heroic death in the war. We are particularly glad to welcome you to this city.
"Another reason why this great city delights in honoring, you is because of the enormous pride that we have in one of the most gallant, one of the finest fighting units that saw action in the war, the famous Old Fifteenth, the Hell Fighters, the regiment that went from them there are five ribbons and each one tells the story of a major engagement in the war. It received citation as a unit, it has a Croix de Guerre and a Congressional Medal. We are proud of our liberation of action and justice by the old 369th in the war."
Mothers Were Photographed.
This closed the ceremonies, and the mothers were escorted to the front entrance to the City Hall, where they were photographed, for McKenna stood in the center front line, with Mrs. Rush on his left. OB entering the Aldermanic Chamber with the Mayor's staff and other officials accompanying him, they were scorted by Mrs. Louise Jackson, widow of the late Major William H. Jackson, who was an officer of the original 13th New York Infantry. She stands just behind Mr. McKenna's photograph reproduced in this paper. Four large Grey Line buses were used in transporting the mothers and escort from the West 132th Street. Y. W. C. A. to the City Hall, through the fourth fence to licenemen as a guard of honor. All traffic was suspended as the procession passed through Seventh avenue to 110th, to Fifth avenue, through 72nd street, through the fourth fence to the City Hall, through fourth avenue and Lafayette street.
Arriving at the City Hall they found the Plaza lined with military and naval units. The 369th Regiment, under command of Col. William A. Taylor, was drawn up in from the 16th Infantry, U. S. A., on their right, and companies of sailors and marines from the Brooklyn Navy Yard on their left. The 369th-Infantry Regiment Band, under command of Lieut. Jacob Porter, played in the Plaza, while the 369th Infantry Band was drawn up the balcony of the Aldermanic Chamber, furnishing music during the greeting ceremonies.
After their photographs had been taken, the mothers were escorted back to the waiting buses, and with the same motorcycle ride to 137th Street W. Y. C. A., the return trip being varied by being routed through Central Park, to 110th street and Lemox avenue, up which avenue it continued to 137th street.
The full program in the Aldermanic Chamber was broadcast over the city's official radio station, WNYC.

them into strange surroundings and away from families and friends for about a week about how to about War Department has been motivated by the desire to relieve this strain in so far as possible by not disturbing the normal contacts of the individual pilgrims. It would seem natural to assume that these mothers would not seek solace in their grief from companions of their own race."
Reflected on Y. W. C. A.
Another accusation, to the effect that the Negro mothers were given inferior accommodations to those of the white mothers is regarded as a violation of the 137th street Y. W. C. A. and the Club.Caroline, where the majority of the mothers were housed while in the city. The Y. W. C. A. operated the Emma Ransom House as a residence for women, and it is looked upon as on a par with other houses in the city. Not, of course, of the same order as the luxuriously equipped hotels downstream which cater to the very wealthy, but it is modernly furnished and equipped, and is maintained with meticulous care.
The Caroline Club is another house, exclusively for women, and it is looked upon as one of the most comfortable housing institutions in the community.
All of the mothers expressed themselves, as more than satisfied with the accommodations furnished them and who particularly outspoken them and were particularly outspoken for the splendid manner in which they sentiments of the government here in New York, and by officials of the City of New York, including Mayor James J. Walker and Mayor William F. Degan, chairman of the city's Star Mother's Reception Cog- mutes, care for all of groups of mothers, of births.
THYROID GLAND'S VALUE TO HUMAN BODY'S FUNCTION Dr. Wynne Radios Important Advice On How to Keep Body In Order
Calling attention to the value of the thyroid gland to the human body, comparing its action to that of the accelerator in an automotive Health Commissioner Shirley W. Wealth told his radio audience over WEAF that this organ requires a small amount of iodine and that the best way to obtain it is to eat fish at least once a week.
"To comprehend the action of this gland," said the Commissioner, "one must realize that the thyroid's secretion regulates the speed at which the body works. A freely functioning thyroid means an organic processes working at top speed. Sluggish thyroid means an anert body frequently is compared to a body due to torpid processes."
Continuing he said that "the machine. As is the case with all macines it wears itself out in its ceaseless work. But unlike other macines it tissues as the ability to rebuild its tissues as they down. The tissues give the material for their rebuilding from the class of food called protein—that is meat, eggs, milk, cereal, etc., which contain chemical substances, nitrogen, essential to met abolism.
"It is a complicated process by which fresh supplies of proteins are carried to the tissues and are used by them. First, the foods must be broken down into their constituent substances in the system. Then these substances are carried by the bloodstream to every part of the body. The tissues take up what they want and give off as waste what is unwanted. This waste is carried off by the bloodstream from the body through the excretory organs.
And here lies the function of the thyroid gland. It has been discovered that the thyroid secretion plays an important role in the elimination of protein waste products. An actively functioning thyroid makes for more rapid metabolism, greater quantity of thyroid secretion is required that waste products can be carried off more more quickly and the way made clear for the utilization of fresh protein supplies."

pilgrimage of all Gold Star Mothers to France.
Alderman Moore and Col. Davis were introduced and spoke briefly, and then Mr. Chapman announced that the United States Line was conferred upon each mother making the trip, token of remembrance. As time before sailing was short, he said only three mothers would receive them during the ceremony, the others being presented later during the trip.
Captain Greets Mothers
Captain Mitchell being presented said:
"Mothers of Our Heroes! I feel singularly honored to think that my ship has been the chosen one to transport you good Mothers to my ship, and I am proud of your dreams, and I sincerely assure you that every effort will be made on the part of my men and myself to make your voyage aboard the American Merchant a never to be forgotten one, and I want you Mothers to feel that this good ship is your ship." Preliminary to presenting the tokens to the three mothers selected, Mr. Chapman said.
"A dozen years' or more ago our troops in uniform and foreign bound embarked, from this exact spot to fight a great war dedicated to the high purpose of ending strife among us, privileged in the name of and for a privilege, in the name of and for a salute you, a contingent of our Gold Star Mothers, on a pilgrimage of peace to the same scenes of battle where, shrouded in glory, lie your boys, the exacting toll of war. Through their sacrifice and through the devotion of our mothers who gave them, the great ideal for which we are become the gospel of peace and determination the parish shall not again embitter or destroy the people of the earth.
"May God bless the mothers who gave so freely that this ideal might become an inheritance to all the world. It was your greatest gift—it has bestowed upon human itsity the power of your devotion and the sacrifice your sons make us ever steadfast in the resolve that peace shall not again pass from us."
Mothers Get Tokens
Calling forward Mrs. Lucy L. Johnson of Pittsburgh, Mrs. Mary Hill if Nashville, Tenn., and Mrs. Annie Bowie of Los Angeles, Calif., Mr. Chapman presented them the beautiful tokens given by the United States Lines, Gold Star Medals hung on silk ribbons in the national colors, red, white and blue, and certificates of the trip they were making. Mrs. Johnson made the response, thanking the government, the City of New York and the Mayor, for all the courtesies shown the mothers while in the city. The French national song, "The

City Firemen Salute Mothera
One of the striking tributes paid the mothers was that by the Fire Department, Engine Co. No. 59, stationed at 180 West 133th street, just opposite the Y. W. C. A. When the mothers were leaving for the boat on Saturday, the entire company, with all its fire apparatus, hited in front of the fire house, in salute to the Gold Star Mothers. Another unusual feature, perhaps the first time in the city's history, was the suspension of all traffic rules both on Friday's trip to the City Hall, and on Saturday's trip to the boat, affording the Negro mother an uninterrupted run direct from their headquarters at the Y. W. C. A. to their destination. The motorcycle escort was on duty on both trips and for over a year on bade bade bade to the mother Lewis H. Walker was one of the New Yorkers to bid the mothers good bade on the ship.
Col. J. E. Williams and Major A. C. Tipton, both of the U. S. Army rendered splendid service in making arrangement, for handling the mother ship, Yosemite City, and during the last two weeks of their sailing, Col. Davis was on duty with them. Civilians from the War Department, R. T. Brown, W. H. Lewis jr. and Archibald Runner, were on duty with the mothers on their arrival as a charge officer, each one being in charge of officers, each one at the W. Y. C. A.

Relative of Luckeyth Roberts Held As Alleged Robber
Magistrate R. Murphy in the 12th District Magistrate's Court, held Clarence Sanford, a youth of 18, for the action of the grand jury Tuesday morning, June 15, after a hearing on a charge of robbery. Young Sanford, who is said to be related to C. Luckeychik Roberts, the musician, by marriage, was arrested Saturday by Patrolman Regan of the 32nd Precinct on complaint of Mrs. Agnes Jones of 244 West 132nd street. Accompanying to Mrs. Jones, Sanford and four companions entered her home late Friday night, armed with sticks and bottles and held up herself and husband, taking $88 in cash from the apartment. They escaped before the police could be summoned.
The next day Mrs. Jones was walking up Seventh avenue, when the sped Sanford in the tail shop at 2374 Seventh avenue, and pointed at the beat as one of the group that had robbed her on the previous night.
Sanford, who was employed as a presser in the tailor shop, denied the claim that he was a national William. He did not take the witness stand and the magistrate held him for downtown.
ADVERTISE YOUR FURNISHED ROOMS
months ago, when The Age first made its protest
It is a remarkable contrast that we find between the officials of a Democratic city like New York and a Republican administration at Washington, in the honors accorded this group of Negro Gold Star Mothers. The reception at the City Hall was attended by members of both races, only the officers of the N. A. A.C. P. being conspicuous by their absence. There was an opportunity in their affair for constructive service. instead of wild-shooting press agitation, in which the Advancement Association might have better served the cause of the Gold Star Mothers.

TWO NOTABLE BOOKS.
in the stream of pornographic literature, mostly by white writers, purporting deal with the doings and thinkings of black Americans, but pandering more to desire to explore the avenues of serious sexuality, it is refreshing to receive two books that at least deal with intent realities. The first of these is "Paul Robeson, Negro," published by Harper Brothers, and written by Mrs. Elsandaode Robeson. The second book is enclosed "Black Manhattan," by James Welton Johnson, published by Alfred A. Hopi. Both of these books are entertaining as well as inspiring, and neither of them leaves a bad taste in the mouth.
To give first place to the lady author, Mrs. Robeson has performed a difficult task with mingled ardor and discretion. He has shown that a wife can adore her husband and yet be quite sensible of hisorteonnings, as well as alive to his good qualities. She has combined studied education with a wise and motherly criticism, calculated to spur the subject of her emotion to greater exertions. At the same time she has revealed the likable qualities that contributed to her husband's success as athlete, singer and actor.
Mrs. Robeson has also given a sane and insurable view of life as it is lived among groves in Harlem, showing that the same social standards and usages are accepted among them as among whites of equal intelligence and the equivalent status. She has described the comingling of the two races along social and artistic lines, rearing frequently to the friendships made by her husband among the white race. It is brilliant success in London, in playing the role of Othello, a cable account which forms part of the jacket of the book, was due largely to the persistence of his wife, as shown in the following passage, in which she taunted him with laziness:
"Take Othello," says Essie, "You're fond of saying, 'I think I will wait till I've had more experience in the theatre before I undertake that; it requires maturity.' When what you really mean is, 'I've got to learn how to speak the English language properly before I can undertake that play, I have to learn the role, learn to walk in a strange way, learn to talk in a strange way.' I'll have to read a great deal about Shakespeare, his time, his works, before I can fully understand the play. Oh, I admit when you do a thing you do it intelligently, thoroughly magnificently. But my point is that you don't do it till you run down and must. And it is all because you everlastingly lazy you talk. Paul was stirred to acclaim when you really think I could play Othello now if I worked at it."
In the stream of pornographic literature, mostly by white writers, purporting to deal with the doings and thinkings of black Americans, but pandering more to the desire to explore the avenues of vicious sensuality, it is refreshing to receive two books that at least deal with decent realities. The first of these is "Paul Robeson, Negro," published by Harper and Brothers, and written by Mrs. Eslanda Goode Robeson. The second book is entitled "Black Manhattan," by James Weldon Johnson, published by Alfred A. Knopi. Both of these books are entertaining as well as inspiring, and neither of them leaves a bad taste in the mouth.
HONORS TO GOLD-STAR MOTHERS.
A group of some sixty Gold Star mothers of the Negro race, whose sons or husbands lie buried in France, sailed from New York last Saturday, to visit the cemeteries where their soldier dead lie at rest. During their stay in this city they were accorded all the honors paid to previous groups bent upon a like mission! City officials of both races joined in a welcome reception at the City Hall and the visitors were greeted and entertained by various civic and military organizations. The Young Women's Christian Association, together with many of our public spirited citizens and other bodies, vied in extending courtesies, to the group. The accommodations provided for them on the steamship appeared to possess every comfort and to be equal, in every way to those furnished previous groups.
To give first place to the lady author, Mrs. Robeson has performed a difficult task with mingled ardor and discretion. She has shown that a wife can adore her husband and yet be quite sensible of his shortcomings, as well as alive to his good qualities. She has combined studied adoration with a wise and motherly criticism, calculated to spur the object of her devotion to greater exertions. At the same time she has revealed the likable qualities that contributed to her husband's success as athlete, singer and actor.
The only exception to the welcome extended the group was on the part of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, which deemed it necessary to mark its disapproval of the action of those pilgrims who had accepted the accommodations provided by the War Department. In this attitude, which apparently was intended to embarrass and disturb the members of the group, the Association exceeded the aims and objects of its founders, by visiting its disapproval upon the subjects of discrimination rather than upon those who were responsible for it. The Association sought to stir up strife and wilfully misrepresented facts, in its zeal to emphasize the matter of discrimination and segregation of these Gold Star Mothers.
Mrs. Robeson has also given a sane and sensible view of life as it is lived among Negroes in Harlem, showing that the same social standards and usages are accepted among them as among whites of equal intelligence and the equivalent status. She has described the cominging of the two races along social and artistic lines, referring frequently to the friendships made by her husband among the white race. His brilliant success in London, in playing the role of Othello, a cable account of which forms part of the jacket of the book, was due largely to the persistence of his wife, as shown in the following passage, in which she taunted him with laziness:
The question of segregation, in the plains announced upon the authority of the Quartermaster General's office at Washington, was first raised by The Age last February, when it was stated that "greater satisfaction can be given to all concerned by conducting a separate pilgrimage for colored women." The Age promptly denounced this plan as undemocratic and un-American, and peculiarly out of keeping with the nature of the proposed pilgrimage. It was suggested by the editor of The Age that the best way to arrange for the colored women who cared to make the trip, would be to send them in groups of twenty-five on the same steamships as the rest of the pilgrims. In this protest against the segregation of the Negro mothers, the Negro press joined without a dissenting voice.
"Take Othello. says Essie. "You're fond of saying, 'I think I will wait till I've had more experience in the theatre before I undertake that; it requires maturity.' When what you really mean is, I've got to learn how to speak the English language properly before I can undertake that task to walk in strange clothes, learn to talk in a strange idiom; I'll have to read a great deal about Shakespeare, his time, his works, before I can fully understand the play. Oh, I admit when you do a thing you do it intelligently, thoroughly magnificent that you know that you'll run down and dust. And it's all because you're so everlastingly lazy. Paul was stirred to action. "Do you really think I could play Othello now if I worked at it?" "I know you can, silly." Brown, to the
"I know you can, silly." . . . "All right, I'll do it. I'll tell Maurice Brown so the next time he asks me."

If Mr. Robeson is an example of a successful actor, Mrs. Robeson truly deserves to rank as the type of the successful wife. In "Black Manhattan" James Weldon Johnson, has written a most readable story of the Negro in New York, although he discreetly disclaims the attempt to make the book in any strict sense a history. Instead, he has given a moving, glowing picture of the coming and staying of the darker race in the greatest city of America, from the settlement of New Amsterdam in 1626. Within the same year, we are told that there were eleven Negroes in the colony, constituting a little more than five per cent of the total non-Indian population.
In response to this protest assurances were given The Age that the plan of a separate steamship for the Negro mothers had been dropped and that they would be divided between two vessels, with other passengers. It was further stipulated that there would be no attempt to Jim Crow them or to make them feel any difference between them and the white groups. The accommodations secured for the group in New York were for the purpose of making them feel at home by domiciling them among institutions and hotels conducted by their own people. Any effort to stigmatize the accommodations secured for them as "inferior" is uncalled for and unworthy of the Association which sent out such a reflection upon the race whose cause it is pledged to advance. There is no good reason why white hotels should have been preferred to such places as the Y. W. C. A., the Club Caroline and the Hotel Dumas.
How this group of eleven gradually increased to 250,000, now generally accepted as comprising the Negro population of Harlem, is told with a wealth of incident and charm of description that might well deserve the term gripping, so closely does the narrative hold the attention of the reader. Mr. Johnson is at his best in his description of the growth of the race along artistic, sporting and theatrical lines, some seven or eight chapters being devoted to these and kindred subjects. The previous chapters deal with the abolition movement among New Yorkers, the beginning of education with the African Free School, the precarious condition of the freemen, the rise of the colonization idea and the raising of Negro regiments during the Civil War.
The Age has been fighting the cause of equal rights for the race over forty years, always protesting against discriminations and segregation in matters of public service, but it has been careful not to do harm to the innocent victims of such practices by misdirected agitation. Because the War Department failed to do away entirely with the idea of segregating the Negro Gold Star Mothers, it was not necessary to embarrass and disturb the peace of mind of those who concluded to make the pilgrimage under government auspices. The efforts of such a militant organization as the Advancement Association in this direction were so much misguided energy. The heavy artillery of its press bureau should have been trained upon the White House and the War Department five
The World War and its after effects are briefly but comprehensively summed up and the efforts of the Negro as a creative artist receive sympathetic review. Harlem is pronounced to be more than a community, rather to be considered as a large scale laboratory experiment in the work-
ing out of racial problems. That the author has confidence in the ultimate reaching of a same conclusion to this particular problem is shown by his final paragraph, in which he says:
The Negro in New York still has far, very far, yet, to go and many, very many inquiries yet to gain. He still meets with interracial tensions and disasters and guarantees her Negro citizens the fundamental rights of citizenship and protects them in the exercise of those rights. Possessing the basic rights, the Negro in New York ought to be able to work through the discriminations and disadvantages. His record beginning with the eleven three hundred years ago proves that he can; and he will.
"Black Manhattan" is a valuable contribution to our literature, and despite its local restriction of title, it manages to cover a large number of racial activities during three centuries of American life.
WHY HAITI WAS TAKEN.
In the Saturday Evening Post, for July 12, Josephus Daniels, Secretary of the Navy under the Wilson Administration, under the heading of "The Problem of Haiti," tells why the United States went into that island in 1915, took over the control of the customhouses, selected a Haitian for President and compelled the ratification of a treaty that gave complete direction of affairs to Americans for fifteen years. According to Mr. Daniels, the chief reason for this highhanded proceeding was because it became an imperative duty for the Wilson administration to land marines in Haiti. The alternative would have been to sit still and see a European government assume authority over the island, possibly either Germany or France.
The killing of President Guillaume Samby by the infurred populace of Port au Prince is cited as the chief event, which led to the belief that a state of anarchy existed on the Island, without any stable government being established. In this seeming emergency Admiral Caperton landed his marines and assumed charge of affairs. It was then assumed that the American Navy had brought order out of chaos. The members of the Wilson cabinet hailed this assumption of power by dubbing the head of the Navy as "Josephus First, King of Haiti." The former Secretary admits that pressure was exercised upon the Haitians to secure the ratification of the treaty, which provided for a receiver general of customs, a financial adviser and directors of public works and sanitation, all Americans of course.
Mr. Daniels tells how the marines under General Smedley Butler turned road builders, for military purposes, primarily, and resorted to enforced labor under the corvee system for that purpose. He defends this system, except when it was changed so as to take the native laborers far from their homes and administered in an unsympathetic manner. He recognized the hostility felt toward the financial adviser as due to his being regarded as an autocrat, who was not responsible to either the people or government of Haiti.
The most indefensible feature of the American occupation was the censorship of the press, which Mr. Daniels deplores, although he did nothing apparently when he had the power to modify it. The only excuse advanced for this by Mr. Daniels is that "military men are not always best suited to judge of questions outside their profession." He insists that President Wilson hoped that a gradual withdrawal of the marines would leave the Haitians in control of their own country. Why this was not accomplished during his administration is attributed to the President being wholly engrossed with the desire to secure the ratification of the League of Nations.
Mr. Daniels now declares that the time has come for Uncle Sam to retire from Haiti and let its people govern themselves. He avers that "every day that American officials and marines have exercised authority, since conditions were improved, has injured American prestige and caused the world to question our good faith." If the former official, who was primarily responsible for the occupation of Haiti, has come to this belated conclusion, there should be none to dissent.
NON-RESISTENCE AS A WEAPON.
NON-RESISTENCE AS A WEAPON.
A new York newspaperman who had a talk with one of the leaders of the pacifist revolt against British rule over India, reported that the great reliance of the followers of Gandhi is in the doctrine of non-violence, or the refraining from striking back when they are struck. This explains why the Indians who follow the counsel of Gandhi allow the police to beat them with long sticks or clubs called lathis or leather straps, without resisting or even seeking to escape the blows. As explained by this leader of the Indian Congress party; they expect to break the British hold upon India with non-violence. He said that Gandhi had invented a weapon in suffering violence without resistance, for which the West has found no answer. The capacity for suffering blows and

wounds, without seeking return them, might have been taken from the Sermon on the Mount, in which the meek and the poor in spirit are blessed and the man who is smitten on one cheek is enjoined to turn the other adversary. It is strange that this doctrine preached to the early Christians should now be utilized by the followers of an East Indian mahatma, to break the rule of Western Christians over Eastern Hindus and Mohammedans. Through this means the Indians seek to convince the British that they must abandon the use of force as a weapon in the domination of Eastern peoples.
The Indian leader admitted that this desire to make the British drop the element of force in relation to India and to treat with the Indians as equals was due to the existence of an inferiority complex, which would prevent the latter from getting absolutely fair treatment at any round table conference to be held in London. He thought it would take a long time to convert Englishmen to any belief in the equality of the colored
Editor W. P. Dabney of the Cincinnati Union has taken up the cause of the hatmakers and joined in condemning the fashion of dispensing with headgear in the open. He referred to the hatless youth of the race in the following vein:
Looking back to the bleak 'days' of Fall and Winter, there arises before me the vision of young Negroes emulating young Nordics in sailing hatless' through the seas of our cities. Even when overcasts were worn, hats were unworn. Our gallant sons of Ethiopia merit highest commendations, for unliken their white brethren, few of them enjoy a superhuman helmet. They were the witless helmets, martyrs to a senseless fad. A few do not deserve so much credit however. They cheated a little. So much axle grease or some other vile compound covered their craniums, that neither rain, sleet nor snow could 'furnish proof of penetration' of the penetration of foreign statures found rest place. Even a forty mile gale could not blow one "strain". grain or strand of hair from its moorings.
The hatless fad has been defended on hygienic as well as economic grounds, much of the baldness among males being attributed to the continuous weating of close-fitting hats indoors as well as out. The head and hair require an airing at times.
Talking about the necessity of "Fighting Evil Propaganda," the Block Dupetek of Oklahoma City noted that Mexico propose toensor all books and films coming from the United States. It continued:
The Negro has been fighting, evil and false propaganda manufactured by white people for years. Our citizenship status within the nation will not permit us to take the drastic position assumed by the people of the Mexican nation, and yet there is much that we are not doing as a group, which is entirely possible in achievement; effective in fighting; effective in fighting; the battle for self-respect and world equality.
Propaganda against Negroes is found in the school room. The geographies and histories which white and black children study alike, tell lies about black folk. The books include sins of commission and sins of omission. After the Negro and white child have finished reading about the black race being inferior and looking at grotesque pictures of humans said to be Africans, the remainder of them are achievements of Nordics, in art, literature and science; their heroism and bravery in wars and the establishment of government is stressed. Nothing is said about Negroes and the part they have played in civilization.
A colored girl recently employed in the Black Dispatch office had never heard of Frederick Douglass. We became interested and began to question her as to her knowledge and information about her life, who had left their mark here in America. She did not know a single black member of Congress, who served during the Reconstruction period, nor was she able to give the names of all soldiers, artists, inventors or men of note other than Booker T. Washington.
The Oklahoma editor argued that Negro school teachers could correct this situation by discussing the imprint which black men have made upon the society and culture of their times.
In view of the news coming from Moscow, that the American Communist party is being urged to intensify its propaganda among Negroes in the United States, the Pittsburgh Courier printed a warning to "Be Wary of the Reds." It said:
faces with the whites. This leader of the Indian revolt against British rule enunciated the belief that the best proof of being able to govern was to prove that you were capable of offering resistance to being governed by another. This is the program of the Indian Congress and its leaders are prepared to carry it out. On the other hand, the British in India still rely upon force as exercised by clubbing and beating the unresisting natives as the method of subduing the revolt. In some cases the police and troops have used firearms and shot and killed hundreds of the natives who failed to disperse when so ordered. Whether the British will weary of this official brutality, and justify the belief of the Indian leader that they will begin to feel ashamed of themselves, is doubtful. The fountain of British tenacity and the brutality are not so readily exhausted. Britons thrive and grow fat on the exercises of beating up the darker races. When the practice of non-resistance wears out British domination, it will be the triumph of mind over matter.
the Communists and their propaganda. They are not sincerely interested in bettering the economic condition of the American Negroes; they are only interested in fostering the development of an overthrowing the present social order and substituting an allegedly superior and more equitable one. It is their plan to play upon the rightful discontent of black people here in order that the latter may be used as an instrument to push the powers that be for them. Their propaganda, their ideals, their philosophy are anathema to the powers that be in this country and any group identifying itself with them will also have to bear the persecution of their leaders and are determined to mute out to them at every opportunity and on every occasion.
We contend that the Negro's position, socially, politically and economically is much too precarious and fraught with too many dire possibilities for him to take a chance on being identified with such a violently revolutionary group. We contend that the Negro is suffering from enough ills without inviting more. The Negro cannot alleviate the ills from which he suffers by adopt the weapon of social revolution; by allowing himself to be used as a catspaw. by Bolshevist agitators.
The Pittsburgh editor admits that the bulk of the race have too much sense and judgment to become Communists, but addresses its warning to the thoughtless and gullible, who dabble with new ideas.
Referring to the coldblooded murder of Dennis Hubert, a sophomore at Morehouse College by a mob of white ruffians, the Atlanta Independent said:
Ninety per cent of the people of Atlanta stand for law and order and will not tolerate mob law, nor assassination. There could be no clearer case of deliberate premeditated murder than the homicide of this bright young sophomore who comes from one of the best families of our city without regard to race or color. It is not a question of whether the victim of the court's victimization was a question of law enforcement. There was absolutely no excuse for the murder of this 18-year-old child, by six armed bandits who armed and arrogated unto themselves the majesty of the law. The law is supreme and must not be trampled upon or lynched by any class of people. The court was justified in binding these murderers over the grand jury, who had been black, had insulted the wife of either of these murderers, the law was ample and adequate to handle the question and administer swift and adequate punishment.
Granting, the fabrications advanced by the culprits to be true, that somebody did insult the good wife of one of the assassins, the fact does not justly six burly ruffians in taking the law in their own hands and dealing deadly punishment. The law is equal to any crime and it makes no difference how 'revolting or horrifying the crime may be, the law is sufficient to handle and punish the guilty.
There is a class of white lawless understrups, who do not feel that a Negro has any right, not even the right to live, work, and enjoy the pursuit of happiness among men. The understrupers be suppressed in the interest of public peace. Law nor property is safe so long as these handis run wild.
The Independent called upon the Solicitor General to prosecute the murderers and for every pulp, newspaper and civic organization to unite against such lawlessness.
Deploring the "Decadence of Boxing," the Washington Tribune said in an editorial under that heading. That boxing is 'in a state of decadence as a sport is to be greased
ed from recent fights, pulled off in this country, when the last three bouts were ended with a foul. Boxing, like bulky fighting, is an inhuman contest, when staged as a commercial proposition. Its former science has waned and the last two major contests ending in fouls leaves a bad experience, and very much affects this sport. A Negro should fight clean. However, there are so many shady deals pulled off in boxing and the Negro, being in the game, becomes entangled too. It was reported that the Godfrey-Carner fight was largely controlled by a pool formed in Chicago by a bunch of gangsters, who are also to have wired Godfrey to that pool. Other sports are becoming far more popular than boxing because of the greater science and less brutality in them.
Boxing is apparently a much more crooked game than bull-fighting, though for sheer brutality both are surpassed by football. Now that a sapient, boxing commission has refused to recognize fouls, the boxing game is on a par with any go-as-you-please contest.
Questioning the policy of the Catholic Church in placing white priests over Negro churches the Houston Informer asked:
Does the Catholic church wish to admit that there are not enough Negroes with sufficient intelligence and bearing in its ranks to qualify for or shepherds over Negro parishes?
Why does the Catholic church still persist in placing white priests
The Week of July 19 Astrologically Considered BY THEARCHER
The astrological indications show that the decadence of the Caucasian race has already begun, and will reach its greatest momentum by the end of 1955. The law of progress requires the most courage to remain in power forever. Civilization needs new blood and it is left for another race to make the contribution to civilization. The Negro race, Africans in particular, will be last, but not least. The Caucasian race does not realize that the easiest way to progress through justice and equality. The Negro would not now have come so far on the road to progress if this had not been so. The new birthyear for July 19th promises health, success and work while the rest twelve months. The marriage partner is likely to suffer through the health or lack of employment, but this will not cause much loss, for there will be a way to get ahead even in this case. The people of today Care should be used in oaking it upon opposite sex. Old places are best.
Those who begin another birthday on July 20 can make the year worth while if patience and tact can be used, especially in the domestic and family affairs. Legal, watters will not bring any satisfaction, and care should be used in writings and in books, with a tendency to nervous impatience should be shown. The birthyear for July 24 promises changes in the employment that can be made worth while if tact and patience are used. Those who are married should not find it difficult to keep peace and harmony in the family circle if they try. No money should be loaned or borrowed. Time payments will only cause worry and trouble. Those who are single should remain that way for another woman to be loaned. The birthyear for July 22 will bring unusual opportunities, the inclination to marriage, and success to those who use the utmost good judgment and tact. Care should be used

over Negro churches, when it has been shown by other religious denominations that Negroes, despite their faults and shortcomings, are being used as their people and members of other races. Why do the colored communicants of the Catholic church submit so weakly to a superimposed leadership, which is often out of tune, harmony and sympathy with the parishioners? Are the colored Catholics lacking in the fine qualities demonstrated by their racial brothers in Protestant denominations? It must be admitted that the Catholic church has done and is still doing one of the most outstanding pieces of work in practical Christianity, but what will all of this amount to in the final analysis, if it is not that the great leadership which is capable of marshalling and directing the colored parishioners?
A tree is judged by the fruit in bears and an institution of learning or religious denomination is best evaluated by its products and the type of work it does in developing and training leaders. If the Catholic church by refusal over the various colored congregations, admits that the church has trained no black men who are able to serve in such capacities, it must also be admitted that the Catholic church has not lived up to its opportunities and obligations along this particular line.
Some years ago the Catholic Church in América started the practice of ordaining colored priests beginning with Father Augustus Tolton and a few others, but of late years none have succeeded to their places.
in travel and in handling sharp instruments. Quarrels will not be worth while. In many ways this is the best birthdate of the week, and it should not be hard to make the day white. The health should be guarded and the mammary and fecund complaints. The people who begin another birthyear on July 23 will find the year financially and spiritually worth while if nothing new is begun. It is best that old plans be judged and carried out since new plans are made while, and will be expensive in the end. Promotion will come to those who are deserving and business success will come to those who can use good judgment in the financial outlay. It will 24 begin a birthday that will require much patience and trust in family and domestic affairs. The unexpected changes can be turned to advantage if impatience is not allowed to rule all actions.

The birthyear for July 25 will bring many business and social opportunities for success in nearby way. The health will require careful attention. The speech and writing should be very discreet.

Monday, July 6, the church services were under guidance of the local missionaries and the prayers so far, testimony meeting, the Rev Dr. Chester Williams, late of Detroit, Mich., addressed the audience in the main auditorium of the church. The speaker is a mere lad and came to do his share in the ministry of our church. Tuesday, July 8, the services were conducted by one of the church auxiliaries. Beautiful monies were given ear to the congregation given ear to the teaching of Rev. Stafford, a traveling evangelist, hailing from Easton.
Wednesday, July 9, services of the evening began at the twelfth hour under auspices of the Junior Church and officers. Prayer services began a few minutes later. The prayers of the worshippers were heard beneath dem roars of the pipe organ, with Ernest H. Gantling at the console. The testimony meeting was opened by Miss Hattie T. Jones, one of the missionaries of the Junior Church. At the close of the testimonies the speaker of the evening was addressed to the junior pastor, Moses Emmet Sims. The Rev. Stafford, who was the treaser, preached from the book to the prophet, Jonah. After the session, closing remarks were made by the senior pastor, Brace Lee Lawson. During course of the evening one was baptized by James Brows, president of the Young People's Union of the church.
Every Friday throughout the year is dedicated to fasting and paving on part of the church or other members and visiting friends. These Friday night divine healing meetings have attracted inmates from time to time. The postmorning sermons preached by the inmates have been responsible for the phenomenal growth and development of the church at large. The special sermons delivered by the pastor on each Friday evening and the remarkable results through divine healing on the part of the church ministry has been the source of a large number of Jews and Gentiles found in the congregation at frequent intervals. The midnight prayer continues from Friday night until Sunday morning.
The services Sunday morning were opened by the ministering deacons. The weather was fast and the result was well with us. Rev. Charles Williams preached a sermon prior to the usual Sunday sermon of the pastor.

MT OLIVET CHURCH
2nd Samuel 14:25 was the text chosen by the assistant-pastor, Rev. A. A. Corpure, of Mt. Olive Baptist Church, Sunday morning, July 13. Subject, "Ambition That Leads to Death."
He compared the beauty of Absalom's body with his personality. How people of a small amount of intelligence cannot stand praise. How ambition is good to have, but how much it can be to the right channels. We should give some of our individuality to help the fellow that is further down. He dwelt on the adaptability of finding our right places in life, the place where we may prove competent, rather than covet the rightful place of some one else. Long service does not necessarily imply competency.
There was an interesting program at the B. Y. P. U. hour, Topic for discussion was "Our Hobby."
At the evening service, Rev Corprep preached from Galatians 6:14 - subject, "Glorying in the Cross," wasibly discus-

year it was thought to be too much like imposition on a good nature to ask her to assume full charge, and so Mr. Daughtrey, a young man who devotes one day of each week to the study of Religious Education, was asked to volunteer his services. He did so most cheerfully. Sunday was a beautiful day, although very warm. The choir somewhat smaller than usual, because of the absence of members away from the city was on the job, and rendered good service led by Mrs. Booker. Sent, that veteran of organists of the city, is there just on the hour. The pastor preached both morning and evening, sermons that were very helpful. Rev. L. K. Banks, a young student in Northern University, preached a good sermon for the Royal Banner Club in the afternoon. The fire was caused the weather is warm goes on and is well attended. Edward Well the president, always has something of interest to those who attend.
NAZARENE CONG. CH.
In his sermon "The Secret of Comfort" the Reverend Dr. Henry Hugh Proctor referred to the series of articles by our Former President Calvin Coolidge as a fountain of national inspiration. He emphasized the truth of his contention that what the people needed was less criticism and more encouragement. At the evening hour a rousing farewell service was tendered to Mrs. Edwards Koffie, who leaves this week for Abyssinia, to do special work under the Emperor of Ethiopia. A letter signed by the pastor, members and friends present was sent by her to the king, Ras Tafari Makonen, Mrs. Helen Curtis spoke his message to the people of Africa and referred to the necessity of workers from this country of our own race.

BRIDGE ST. CHURCH
It was a communion day, and the pastor, Dr Edward Ernest Tyler, delivered, an appropriate sermon. The text was St. Matthew 14—16. Dr Tyler stressed the point that the Christians are the spiritual lights of the world and we should make this the basis of our life. The knowledge and love of Jesus Christ and living it is the only way men and women can see our light. In other words, our daily manifestation of Him is the only real evidence. Other points in the sermon were we must be able to look beyond the temporal things of life, not matter our curs, for we must remember that we are only instruments in the hand of God. Dr Tyler closed with a plea that we be not satisfied with "earth bound values," but with a belief and faith that there is a future life and place for them that live right, for God is willing to get together, society that will be impress others that they will be constrained to follow them.
One person joined the church when the invitation was extended. The Sunday school held a short presentation, John D. Nixon, called attention to the annual outing to Bear Mountain. He also called attention to the second annual pum. Sunday school and Allen League met at the church, August 12—15. At the vesper service the Allen League met. Mrs. Estelle Pollock who was recently elected president met at the church. The topic was interestingly discussed by a number of the members.
At the evening hour, the pastor filled the pulpit. It being the summer season, the services were short. Dr. Tyler delivered a very interesting talk 'Basing his remarks on Psalms 911.1, 2, he emphasized the thought that: we must have an attitude towards God in order to get the benefits therefrom. Hence we should make a greater place. Thus he becomes more real to us as time moves on, and we have a greater desire to have Him become more real to us. We also will realize that He is the same through all time.
SILOAM PRES. CHURCH
The influence of an individual praying to God for a nation was the theme of the discourse at the morning hour of worship at Siloam, Dr. George Shirman Stark, pastor. The text was found in 1 Samuel 7, 5. Before making this intercessory prayer Samuel, told the Israelites that they had done wrong, they had turned away from God to the worship of idols. There was no other resource for the Israelites but to call on the help of God. Just as they took courage to tell the Israelites that they were wrong just so today it takes them to turn away from God but this is the need of the Christian church today, courage to tell, man that he has turned away from God. Man must become contrite, come to peace in his town shear with God.

vacation period like to visit the various
churches. Sunday morning Siloam

congregation Mrs. Wilson responded in
a cordial manner. The congregation
gave her a hearty welcome at the

This year the Daily Vacation
Bible School has a far larger enrol-
ment than was even anticipated.
This is due to the thorough canvass
made prior to the opening by the
faculty of the school. The school
is open each morning from 9 until
12. The excursion is next week Thursday,
July 24, to Forest View Grove,
up the Hudson. The sale of tickets
indicates a large number are planning
to enjoy this day's outing.
Siloam is looking forward and planning to meet the needs of the growing community. The church is located in the heart of the House enlarged to accommodate more appropriately the needs of the Bible School and the work among the growing youth and club activities; its E. E. Reece, of 881a Greene Avenue and Henry Dunbar Todd, of 227 St. James, both of whom are confined to hospitals by illness are now at their homes convalescing.
PLEET ST. MEM. CHURCH
Preaching at both regular services in the Fleet Street Church on Sunday, the pastor's sermons were expressions of what his luminous mind saw, and his warm heart felt. The themes selected were directly in keep, and he treated them accordingly, and he treated them accordingly; yet he did not fail to hold up for all men the model of the One Perfect Man, and urged them, in the midst of their activities, to follow Him, learn more of Him and to imitate Him, as faithful sons and loyal citizens; Themes were the "Strength of a Nation" And "The Means of Vacation," respectively.
The Sunday School session was held at the usual hour. There is always something of special interest to be enjoyed at this service. A mighty fine spirit exists in this department as in all other departments of this church, and splendid progress is being made. In this, the Christian Endeavor Society deserves special mention. An excellent program closed the activities of this society for the season at their regular service, Sunday, to be resumed in the fall.
So numerous are the visitors who worship at this church from nearby section and affectionate to the large number of faithful members that the usual drop in congregations during this season is not noticeable here. Rey. Adam Jackson, one of the older members of the New-York Conference of the A. M. E. Zion Church visited during the evening service. Others included Mrs. Lottie

Hildale Divides Doubleheader With Camden, N. J., Club
While the Lincoln Giants were in Baltimore Sunday, the Hilldale team came over from Philadelphia to be the "home team" at Protectory Oval. They split a double-header, with the strong Camden Camden Club, playing two of the fastest games, seen at the Bronx park all season. The score of the first game was 12-7 in favor of the white team, and the other was 7-5 in favor of the colored boys. A bad start by Ping Gardner gave the visitors 7 runs in the first inning of the opening contest. He was relieved by Jess Hubbard, who pitched in his old form, and also hit a home run. Davis, the young short stop of the Philadelphia outfit, also hit a home run in this contest. Mitchell pitched his team to victory the other contest. He was given good support by his teammates, including Otto Briggs, who made three fills in four trips to the plate.
The Lincoln Giants will return to their home grounds next Sunday to meet the Royal Giants in a double-header.
Scores by innings of the two games last Sunday were as follows:

Prairie View, Texas—Sam Taylor, a former three letter-man of Virginia Union University and a football star at Northwestern University, who for the past five years has been football coach at Clark University, has been appointed athletic director of Prairie View College. During the five years that Coach Taylor was connected with Clark University, his teams made enviable records, having been runner-up for the Southern Conference football championship four years and in 1928 his team entered in a triple tie with Atlanta University and Tuskegee for the conference championship. He holds the distinction of coaching the only team to defeat Tuskegee in the past six years.
Renaissance Theatre
Wednesday: Thursday and Friday of this week, Clara Bow in "True To The Navy" comes to the Renaissance Theatrug. The "It" girl gets off great in a new role minus the usual bobbed hair and gives a splendid exhibition of her heretofore unknown powers as a songstress. There is heard interest to the story and a car load of thrills. You will like the way Clara makes love to all the sailors only to really fall in love eventually. See and hear this joyful story at the Renaissance. Commencing Saturday, July 19, for four days "The Devil's Holiday" with Nancy Carroll will be the attraction. This is one of the most daring, fery spectacles ever produced on screen, combining love, intrigue and finally penetration leading to the happy ending. You have seen Nancy Carroll in "Sweetie", now see her in her finest picture, "The Devil's Holiday". It will hold you spell-bound from start to finish.
In keeping with the Renaissance policy to show only the finest attractions the management has secured among other outstanding pictures for the near future, Maurice Chevalier in "The Big Pond" and William Powell in "Shadow of the Law," Admiral Byrd at the South Pole is also booked for this theatre winning the next few days. There his been no increase in the usual prices at the Renaissance Theatre and the management does not contemplate any.
At The New Douglas
Winnie Lightner, who made such a tremendous sensation in "Gold Diggers of Broadway" and "Show of Shows," will be seen at the New Douglas Theatre Thursday and Friday July 17-18, in her latest Vitaphone production "She Couldn't Save No." In spite of its rather misleading title "She Couldn't Say No" is a vivid picturization of Broadway and its sinister rackets and night life of a chorus girl who tried to go straight. As the cabaret singer and gangster's sweetheart, Miss Lightner sings several sherlock" numbers in her usual pity role and in addition displays dramatic abilities that will be tested by Chester Morris as the crowded racketeer gives an exceptionally fine performance in a part similar to his now famous role in "Athu."
Warner Baxter has accomplished the seemingly impossible. He has surpassed the marvelous performance he gave in "Old Arizona" with another and even finer impersonation of a gay and reckless band in "The Arizona Kool," which comes to the Tampa Bay Times. Sunday and Monday, the TV show "Included in the splendid cast are Mona Harris, Arthur Stone, Han Mann, Theodore Von Eltz and Carol Lombard.

"Redemption", introduces a new type of drama to talking pictures. It pictures in unforgettable scenes, the conflict between a man's love for his wife and home, and the call of a gypsy ancestry. John Gilbert gives a fine portrayal of the unfortunate Russian officer who pretends suicide in order to give his wife a new start in life, only to be found out and in the end be driven to a real death. A splendid cast supports the star in "Redemption". Reuce Advice, and Eleanor Boardman, both of whom have played opposite Gilbert previously; and Courad Nadel, and Omar Mc Dowell.

ROY LANCASTER 'PUTS OVER' BIG BENEFIT EVENT Baseball and Track Meet At Yankee Stadium Nets $3,500
By LUCIEN H. WHITE
The Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters benefited to the extent of $3,500 as a result of the benefit baseball game at the Yankee Stadium on Saturday, July 5, which was sponsored and managed entirely by Roy Lancaster, the hustling and efficient secretary-treasurer of the organization.
Mr. Lancaster created the plan and, single-handed, developed it to its full fruition. When he first projected the idea, Mr. Lancaster requested of Alderman Fred R. Mogore a note of introduction to Col. Jacob Rugert, owner of the. New York Yankees baseball team and Stadium, and this note secured an immedate audience with the colonel and, his business manager, Ed. Barrow and these men responded at once to his plea for use of the ball park in a benefit for his organization.
Double Attraction
Arrangements were perfected for a double-header between the Lincoln Giants of New York City and the Baltimore Black Sox through James L. Keenan, owner of the Lincoln Giants. Extensive advertising contracts were made by Mr. Lancaster, largely upon his personal responsibility, and he also arranged a series of track meet events featuring the great Phil Edwards, champion runner, and Phil "Bangles" Robinson, champion tap and bat player, on his unique effort of running 75 yards backwards while his opponents covered 100 yards in the usual manner of propulsion.
On the appointed day, some 14,000 people, colored and white, surged into the Stadium and saw two twinly played games of baseball, each team winning one; they saw Phil Edwards lose by a span in a half-mile invitation handscap, and they say "Bojangles", running "backwards", defeat a half dozen fast sprinters from the Y, M, C, A. track squad. The 369th Regiment Band, under Leut. Jacob Porter, played, and the notables present included Col. Rupnert himself and Police Commissioner Edward P. Mulrooney.
The gross receipts were $12,331 and expenses totalled $8,829.99.
"Troupers Three" tells in inforgettable scenes of the thrilling adventures and heart-touching romance of three rockies in the U. S. Calvary, Stan Summerfield, star of the great war drama "All Quiet On The Western Front" is also the star of "Troupers Three."
A new comedy featuring those kings of laughter Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy will be presented on the same program.

At The Lafayette Theatre
It is seldom that the Lafayette Theatre is able to offer two big headliners on the same stage program. Yet that will be the case next week when the renowned vaudeville headliners Bud Harris and Frank Radcliff join with the equally famous Cora Green as the star players of what has all the earmarks of being one of the finest musical comedy attractions which the Lafayette Theatre has ever presented, opening Saturday.
The revue is called "Harlem After Dark". It is a unique and entirely original idea in stage entertainment. It presents a show within a show! It is rapid, sure-fire combination of new dances, new songs and a hindered hearty laughs. When the starry support the start in "Harlem After Dark" is unusually large and capable. It includes Perry and Covan, Mae Barnes Blanche Thompson, Johnny Lee Long, Billie Young, Pig Meat Markham and some twenty-five other Harlem favorites—some new to the stage of the Lafayette Theatre.
An unusually fine photoplay program will be presented together with "Harlem After Dark". The feature will be the thrilling talking drama "Young Eagles" Charles (Budv) Young of "Young Eagles" During its run, "Young Eagles" was hailed as even greater than "Lilac Time" and "Wings".
At The Alhambra
Wells, Mordecai and Taylor, those three irresponsible sheels of Harlem, are outstanding in the "Fashion Plate Frolics" which is bringing crowds to the Alhambra Theatre this week. And they seem to be having quite as much fun as the audience.
Mantan Moreland is fellow-conspirator with Sandy Burns this week in the fun department. Little Mantan is making his last appearance in Harlem before going into rehearsal with "Blackbirds." He is taking the place of Aubrey Lyles in the team that was formerly Miller and Lyles.
Jillie Smith, a robust singer from Washington Viola McCoy, Lottie Brown and Charlie Ray deliver the songs both gay and serious, Netta Fairchild, Willie Bryant, Artie Cain, Frankie Maxwell and others flit in and out.
And that new beauty chorus! They dance as well as they look—a credit to Ted Blackman who originated the routines, excepting one which was staged by Dancing Derby as a graceful compliment to the Alhambra.
"Get Rich Quick" turns out to be a comedy drama dealing with a ditch-digger who suddenly becomes, rich. It illustrates how a fool and his money are soon parted.
Ina Claire, gorgeous Broadway star who in private life is Mrs. John Gilbert, is the heroine of The Awful Truth," a powerful talkie of marriage, scandal and jealousy.
NEXT WEEK
The Six Crackerjacks who were the great feature of "Hot Chocolates" on Broadway will do their clever stunts at the Alhambra Theatre next week beginning Monday. And they have a lot of new ideas, too. Daily and Carter favorites for two years at the Cotton Club, will also join with a splendid cast in the musical comedy "In the Swim," "For Love's Sake," a drama of the West, tells of a youth who sacrifices himself to save a man for a girl's sake. Failing himself to win the girl, he loses all to make her happy with the other man. Hobart Bosworth is the star of "Hurricane," the first actual talking picture of the sea and a true epic of heresy of the deep.
the poison has not been "boiled out" of the denatured and wood "alcohol frequently used in "cutting", the so-called whisky of today, New Yorkers in general can uaff their sodas and other soft drinks with immunity. The new safety zone, for the patron of the soda fountain and for those who use carbonated waters, flavored or otherwise, in their homes, has been established by the Department of Health. True, this protection has prevailed in *f*-mer years, but this year it is doubly effective as the result of a city-wide inspection of the carbonating plants and soda water fountains by the inspectors of the Bureau of Foods and Drugs.
In report, just completed by Bernard H. Geertsema, director of the Bureau, it is disclosed that infractions of the Sanitary Code were discovered in a recent survey, and that as a result thirty-two dispensers of soda water have been summoned to court. Forty-five soda water fountains were found defective and ordered closed until repaired. Inspectors are continuing their lookout for ally plants or fountains that are not sanitary and owners who refuse to make the necessary changes will be dealt with summarily.
The presence of soluble copper salt in a deleterious compound prohibited in Section 145 of the Sanitary Code in carbonated beverages being sold in this city came to the attention of the Bureau of Food and Drugs early this year," said Director Geertsema.
"As is generally known, all carbonated water must be conduced to the soda fountains, and from their faucets into the dispensing container through block tins pipes or conduits. In many of the larger soda water dispensing plants copper pipes lined with block tins, are used, and where these are in use for some time the block tin lining is eaten away by the action of the carbonic acid gas, which, wher, it comes in contact with the copper, produces a copper salt. The latter is regarded as deleterious and is prohibited by the Sanitary Code.
So far in Manhattan we have inspected 409 soda fountains. In Brooklyn 136 has inspected 177 and in Richmond 136. Inspectors still are busy in Queens and the Bronx, but so far have not found many dispensers whose plants are not sanitary. We will continue the inspection until every soda fountain, from the smallest to the largest shop; in the entire city has been made safe.

0. V. Catto Elks Band Visited N. Y. on Sunday
The O. V. Catto Lodge of Elks Band from Philadelphia, I. Stewart, conductor, came to New York on Sunday, July 13, and engaged in a friendly band contest with the Manhattan Lodge of Elks Band, Alonzo P. Hardy, conductor. Don bands presented a personnel of 55 members, and both organizations played Sousa's "Semper Fidelis" march and selections from Gonod's In addition, there was played a toxot trout of their own selection, the Philadelphia men playing "There's danger in your eye," while the New Yorkers selected "Sing, you smear."
A large group of Philadelphiaians accompanied the band, headed by judge Edward W. Henry; the only Negro magistrate in that city. The contest was held in Rockland Palace, the former Manhattan Casino, at 1:30 p. m., and both boxes and loges were well filled with New York and Philadelphia supporters of the O. V. Catto and Manhattan Lodges.
The judges were Dr. Melville Charlson, A.A.G.O., distinguished musicians and composer; Mrs. Cora Gary Illidge, music critic of the Amsterdam News and Lucien H. White, music editor of The New York Age.
J. Dainius Steele, who served as master of ceremonies, presented Edward H. Simmons, exalted ruler of Manhattan Lodge, No. 45, who extended an ardent and gincere welcome to the visitors, extending to the fullest hospitality of their lodge home and the city generally.
It was responded to by Judge Heneen who felicitated the two organizations upon splendid spirit of friendly cooperation exhibited in presenting this in amicable rivalry.
A number of other prominent Elks were introduced.
The verdict was announced by Dr. Charlton, who, after briefly and candidly advising the two musical organizations along lines for their future improvement, stated that the decision was a draw. The announcement was greeted with applause.
Prior to the contest, the two organizations had paraded through the streets of Harlem, escorted by the Henry Lincoln and Imperial Lodges, both with their full bands.
Following the conclusion of the program, the Catto band played a few dance numbers before leaving the hall and then the Manhattan Lodge musicians took up the task, the patrons dancing until about 8 p.m.
Frederick Hall Plays His Own Compositions
Frederick Hall, director of music at Morris Brown College, Atlanta, Ga., who is doing post graduate work at Columbia University and the Institute of Musical Art made his first appearance in New York as a composer, pianist, organist and director at Mt. Galvary M. E. Church, 140th street and Edgeworth avenue on Monday night July 14.
Mr. Hall presented a program made up entirely of his own compositions for the organ the voice, the piano and ensemble group.
He evinced a musically aspect in his endeavor, with, apparently, an ample technic in his own renditions on the organ and piano. There is a measure of pleasure to be had from his compositions, even though there is a decidedly reminiscent atmosphere about most of them, with a faithful and consistent adherence to the trite and hackneyed structural form.
He was assisted by the church choreographer Harriet Johnson and Thelma Waters, soprano, and Luther Laemmerton.
Judges Named For Wanamaker Awards
Names of judges who will serve in making the awards of the Rodman Wanamaker Prizes for compositions by Negro musicians submitted in the third annual contest has been announced by officials of the Robert, Curtis Odden Association, the organization composed of coloured emplosses of the Wanamaker Store in Philadelphia.

T. 37 reaches nearly every WHITE family in the United States," Referring specifically to advertisements in the Saturday Evening Post, Ladies' Home Journal, McCall's Magazine, and other periodicals universally read by all races. Dr. Harris reports having made a personal call upon Sharp & Dohne, to make inquiry as to why the apparent slight upon the race was made, and he says they told him that their effort was to reach for the primary market of some twenty million WHITE AMERICANS, after which the campaign would be extended to reach foreign-speaking groups, the Negro, and the illiterate classes who arge appealed to by means of pictures.
It is pointed out by Dr. Harris that this method of discrimination is based upon a purported ratio compiled by an association of advertising agencies, which attempts groups as* to their susceptibility to
LEADERS PLAN IMPROVEMENT OF RACE RELATIONS
Atlanta, Ga.—Twelve, Southern states were represented at the annual meeting of the Commission on Interracial Cooperation held a few days ago in the Butler Street X M. C. A, this city. Nearly a hundred members and visitors were present, including many well-known educators, ministers, business and professional men, and women prominent in religious and civic circles. The two races were about equally represented.
A survey of the year's work revealed a wide variety of activities achieved or in progress. Among these were scientific studies of difficult interracial situations; improvement of court justice, educational facilities transportation, child welfare, and economic opportunity; and efforts by every available means to promote mutual understanding and cooperation between the races, instead of hostility and conflict. In these efforts, it was reported, there had been increasing cooperation on the part of churches and other religious groups, clubs schools, the press, and the agencies of government.
Educational Program
An interesting feature, the reports of the Commission's educational activities, was made by R B Eilezer. It was shown that through this department the Commission is in touch with more than 200 newspapers, chiefly in the South to which frequent releases are sent "interpreting each race to the other in the best light consistent with the facts" The editors it was said, were for the most part intelligently sympathetic with the Commission's purpose and program and had given it fine cooperation in their news and editorial columns Encouraging reports were made also as to the educational work done by the Commission in colleges and high schools
Reporting for the department of woman's work, of which she is director, Mrs. Jesse Daniel Ames outlined a comprehensive program for the women connected with the movement throughout the South, including investigation of the conditions of local welfare schools, contract with local welfare agencies, creation of speakers' bureaus and a number of demonstration projects by states, regions, counties and cities.
New Members Elected
A number of additions were made to the membership of the Commission, among them the following representatives of the colored
advertising of various products.
He asserts that upon the fact of this it demonstrates KKK propaganda.
Dr. Harris has held two conferences with the Shary & Dohme representative, Dr. L. S. Temperton, the merchandizing manager, but has received no clear interpretation of the so-called "primary market" phrase, he says.
He declares that the phraseology used in the advertising is a direct insult to the face and should be publicly retracted. Reference is made to the approaching annual and mid-year meetings of the various state medical associations, at which the matter is expected to be taken up, as well as at the annual meeting of the national body at Indianapolis.
Negro druggists and pharmacists throughout the country are reminded that there are several other reliable chemical manufacturing houses from which medical supplies can be procured. The Sharp & Dohme company is reported to have several subsidiary company, including the H. K. Mulford Co of Philadelphia
groups President W J Hale, Nashville; Mrs Caroline Blanton, Louisville; Dr Mattie E. Coleman, Nashville; Miss Juliette Derecette, Nashville, Mrs Kemper Harreld, Atlanta, and Forrester R Washington, Atlanta, Dr R R McLon, Mrs Mary McLeed - Rethune, President David D Jones and Dr John Hope were chosen to represent the colored group on the board of directors, and Dr Meton was elected one of the Commission's vice presidents Dr W C Jackson, of Greensboro, was elected president and Dr Will W Alexander, executive director
The Commission was created in Atlanta in 1919 for the purpose of tiding over the interracial crisis pending across the country at that time, since has been carrying on a wide variety of activities for the improvement of interracial attitudes and conditions in its membership and that, of its affiliated state organizations, it has thousand or more white and colored leaders who are cooperating for these ends.

Speaking of Chances
By BLVIRA TUCKER
Elizabeth Towne, of the Mantillus has the happy faculty and genius for passing along helpful thoughts. Speaking of our chances she says:
"Young and old, your chances of succeeding are about the same. Age feels that it is too late to start now, but youth feels there is plenty of time to start later, so that's fifty-fifty.
"Youth is over-confident; Age is over-cautious.
"Youth is quick but Age should be sure.
"Youth has vim, vigor and go, but Age has care, courage and character.
"Youth disappointment is a calamity to Age it usually is and should be but an accident.
"Too many of our ourselves on the back for carrying the load we cannot avoid, instead of kicking ourselves-mentally for getting into such a fly.
"At fifty we should be fit to fight and not 'getting our time' or taking the air." Many of us hamper or hinder our chances for progress and achievement by fear. Fear is an emotion excited by threatening or impending evil, accompanied by a desire to avoid or escape it. This element of fear has been a power to drive men to greater achievement but it has also driven others to despondency or a don't matter both leading ultimately to failure. When we speak of chances we remember that he who has kept ahead of his time and taken advantage of every opportunity is the man who refused to admit the word fail in his vocabulary.
Our pioneer fathers in their early trials met and conquered difficulties infinitely greater than we can even imagine. They did not conquer this fear but faith in them selves and that goes for the twentieth century. Perseverance and faith are the "foundations of success.
Several persons recently have spoken to me most encouragingly upon the progress of our "Woman's Page". I use the 'the' term "encouragingly" because it was just that, as this is a new age feature adapted by The New York Age particularly for its women readers, and when they express themselves as being helped and inspired then we certainly are encouraged.
That we might have an idea of just how far our new project has proved a benefit, we are asking for letters from all of the women who think the column should be continued. The most interesting letter will be published and prizes will be given for the best three. All letters must be in the office by Saturday, July 5. Address: all correspondence to

An unusual incident was recorded
recently concerning musicians
and singers. It happened in the
lively and picturesque city of Chicago
A cabaret was held up. Then food and drink was ordered. Wishing all the place afforded, the hold-up men requested the orchestra to play. The leader of the orchestra the report says must have been too slow in getting his orchestra started and one of the gangsters promptly smashed him in the face, breaking the musicians nose. After finishing their meal and insisting to the orchestra the five men their care, they beat the musicians in any way to be molested in such cases. This incident makes us recall working in a cabaret some time ago in Greenwich Village.
The stage was raised about three feet above the floor. The orchestra was seated. About ten feet away was a table with a party for four or five. Suddenly, one of the party caused a gun and pointing to a museum-their call him Harry. He said, "Watch me pick him off. Harry laterally flew behind the sheltering piano. I immediately cared with laughter. But Harry was shaking all night, even after the playful party had gone."

BEAUTY AND HEALTH

Pharmacist and Chemist
Our Hair and the
Disease Dandruff
Landruff, because it very often leads to premature baldness, has come to be regarded by physicians as one of the serious scalp diseases. It is caused by a germ—picked up, the victim seldom knows where. Like other disease germs, it seldom makes progress with healthy tissues, but let it find a scalp that is unhealthy or neglected, and it settles down for a long stay. The pity, of it is that many of us have provided a favorable breeding place for the landruff germ through no neglect of our own. Overwork, worry, a long illness, or general all health have been known not infrequently to interfere with the circulation of the scalp; the pores and scalp tissues become clogged and soon the hair-roots are to receive enough nourishment within, or from stimulating exercise without. Under such circumstances the tissues naturally fall a prey to the hungry germ.
Special Treatment For Dandruff
The moment dandruff-symptoms are discovered is the time to begin treatment. If you take the disease in time, it can be checked. It is worth the trouble, for you will be saved the humiliation of clothing constantly covered with white scales and broken hairs, or still worse, the partial or total loss of your hair.
The first noticeable symptom of dandruff is the presence of soft, greasy seabs on the scalps. This is the time to go to your physician, let him discover the cause of your trouble—whener local or general. In the meantime begin to shampoo with a good shampoo at least once a week, or oitener, if the condition seems to demand it.
Shampooing washes away the germs and scales—therefore cleanliness is an essential weapon in fighting this disease. Between each shampoo, massage the scalp regularly each day with a hair tonic that has as its greatest property, one for dissolving dandruff, and not for scenting and, as to the hair a sweet odor, to give to the hair a soft texture, with about no property whatever so far as dissolving the dandruff is concerned. By massaging with a good tonic, this also stimulates the slugish querculination and tones up the scalp tissues.

A white man who worked with a show with which Jimmy was previously connected, made a trip from a town in Pennsylvania to offer Jimmy a job in that town it was a cabaret and dance place, using all whites in the cast. The salary was $20 per week a man. The man told Jimmy that the manager of the cabaret had said that New York was overrun with idling musicians and could be hired for that price. Jimmy declined the job with thanks.

Last week the Gold Star Mothers sailed on a special ship for France. This act of segregation displays a most flagrant disgard for those who willingly made the supreme sacrifice for Democracy and should be vigorously protested by every member of the race. Whether or not the women would be more
zeard for those who willingly, made the supreme sacrifice for Democracy and should be vigorously protested by every member of the race.
comfortable by themselves is not the point of argument, but that they were not wanted with the white women and were discriminated against because of color is a gross outrage. In an instance like this, when the world can see the attitude of America toward a group of the most loyal of its citizenry it must cease to have any longer any false illusions about this being the "Land of the Free and the Home of Braye." Alderman Fred R. Moore, that valiant crusader of race rights protested and voiced the sentiment of loyal members of the race group at the City Hall when he said in part: "We are tired of being regarded as things: we want to be regarded as human beings. That flag knows no color line." he said polishing to Old Glory. "We have home with Christian fortitude the criticism, degradation and humiliation heaped upon us, but we do believe the mothers of those who fought overseas should be treated alike by the government."
Love and Marriage
By ETHEL R.
I have heard many definitions given for Love, and its accompanying osculating operation known as the kiss, but only last week I heard the most unique definition of a kiss which is too good to keep, so I pass it on.
"A kiss is a baby's right, a small boy's preocative, a lover's privilege, a hypocrite's mask, free in all these cases, but an old man must buy it. To the young girl, the kiss means Faith, to the married woman, Hope, and to the old maid, Charity.
Tis heaven alone that is given away. Tis only God may be had for the asking—J R Lowell. The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched, but just felt in the heart.

Planning Will Help Keep Kitchen Cool
By Prudence Goodhue
Cold lunch on hot days are mandatory. And on the cool colorful days of the autumn to come they will also be a welcome change. There is plenty of warm weather yet in store for us before the snow flies. It was with this thought in mind that I have prepared these suggested foods for the cold luncheon.
In preparing this meal it should be the aim of the housewife to avoid the heat of cooking as much as possible. Cooking in warm weather should be planned so that heat from the stove be eliminated during much of the day.
The heat time to use the stove is during the cool of the morning so that it is not called into use when the house is apt to become too warm for cooking comfort. Foods which later may be served cold are best cooked at that time.

Sliced Pickled Tongue

"Hard times is more than a mere 'notion these days,' recently said a porter when he was asked how business on his run. The gist of expressing just now regarding business in the railroad world, among all classes of its workers, is conspicuously similar, to that of this porter. Not since the year following the declaration of war between this country and Germany, has retrenchment in passenger train service been so drastically made by the railroads as it is being done today.
Previously to that period and directly after the signing of the Armistice this time of year was usually the time at which the railroads' summer business began to take on momentum, especially the roads that have milled up the seashore and mountain resorts. But this year, this impetus in summer travel has failed, so far, to materialize.
It is to be sure, a little too early in the introduction, but from present indications these roads are none too optimistic about this year's business. There is a report that one well-known Eastern railroad contemplates withdrawing a number of trains because of lack of patronage.
This is so patent, in fact; that even old porters are beginning to feel the effect. For example, a New York porter of forty years' service was displaced recently because of the curtailment of the railroad car and thief beam. Fear is expressed by observant porters, that is, only the beginning of what is going to occur in the retrenchment policy of the railroads because of hard times.

One conductor, twelve porters and two maids arrived at the Grand Central Terminal a few days since with faces all aglow, after thirty three days away as the Pullman
This situation may be ascribed largely to present business depression, which is general, but not unique. He knew that the motor bus is proving a formidable competitor to the railroads in short-haul travel. And in addition to that, there is the automobile whose owner, by reason of good roads, can travel as quickly as the train, while the destination is only seventy-five or so miles away.
'Speaking about motor buses, one porter, who has been running-for-armour of the New York White Horse, told me of the one thousand persons he observed at Mt. Washington on the Fourth of July, he estimated that 600 of these came, by motor buses. These buses,' said he, 'even built with observation platforms.'
The extent to which motor buses have affected the railroads may be, perhaps, over-estimated, after the recent surge in rail traffic, because, that the rail-carriers are experiencing hard times. And if that is the situation with them, it follows that the same cause being experienced in the "something end of the Pullman Company."
Brotherhood Charges Coercion to Pullman Company's Officials
A release from the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, A Philip Randolph, president and general organizer, Roy Lancaster, secretary-treasurer, charges that Pullman Company officials are ignoring the recent ruling of the U.S. Supreme Court declaring illegal all "company unions."
The direct charge is made that J. H Foster, supervisor, Jersey Northern District, has called putrefied men to be treated them as to their Brotherhood membership, telling them that the company cared nothing for the Supreme Court decision, and warning them that membership in an outside organization would mean losing their jobs, and putting them in Samuel J. Freeman, supervisor, Welfare Department, New York District, had sent a message to the Brotherhood headquarters through company's field organizer, saying that the Pullman Co. would operate its company union, as hitherto held by the company, be held in November porters refusing to vote would be fired.
The Brotherhood advises that a national order has been issued advising porters to frenchish affidavits of intimidation or violence by the Pullman, declaring that legal action would follow any such action.

HEALTH BUREAU LISTS MEDICAL FAKERS
25,000 Medical Quacks, Makers of Spurious 'Cure Alls,' Listed By New York City Department of Health
Medical Rogues' Gallery Made Up of Quacks, Abortionists, Crooks, Charlatans; First In Any Health Department of World
Upwards of 25,000 medical quacks, manufacturers of spurious "cure alls," peddlers of nostrums, "inventors" of diet, exercise and other worthless systems, "others who prey on the ill and the gullible well, have been listed in the new "Rogues Gallery" of New York City Department of Health, said to be the first of its kind in any health department in the world.
In the index included photographs, it would outvival the famed "Rogues Gallery of Scotland Yard, but only word pictures are essential for the work for which the Health Department will use, the new "gallery." It required more than six months to compile the index.
Carefully concealed within folders are the incriminating histories of not only those who have flouted the law, but also of many who, although admittedly near the danger line, have so far been successful in evading arrest. Almost every known member of the class of gentry who defraud the public, delude the sick and ensnare the well-through quack medical, advice, illegal medicine, spurious "cure alls" and so-called electric devices has been enrolled in the new "Rogues' Gallery," states Health Commissioner Shirley W. Wynne.
Disclosed Their Careers
Folder after folder discloses the life history, as well as checkered career of abortionists, medical crooks, quacks, charlatans; manufacturers of questionable medicines, worthless hair growers and poisonous tonics; peddlers of "Indian herb" concoctions; harmful cosmetics, including rouges, powders, creams, washes, toilet waters, lipsticks, etc.; manufacturers and peddlers of "horsecollars" and other useless electra devices; "inventors" and peddlers of worthless diets, exercise and reducing systems; and a complete list of the manufacturers ap danalyses of tonics, patent medicines, and other medical articles offered for sale in drugstores' and

offer shops, which do not have the approval of the American Medical Association.
The "gallery was compiled by the National Better Business Bureau, Inc, at the request of the Department of Health, to aid in driving the quack and the charlatan out of business. Edward L. Greene, director of the Bureau, detailed Allan B. Backman and a staff to do the compilation last January and the task was completed July 13.
Special Deputy Health Commissioner Edward F. Brown suggested the creation of the "Rogues' Gallery" and the work was carried out under his direction. The new "gallery" has been installed in the Davidson of Legal Medicine, Department of Health, where it will be under the direct charge of S. Dana Hubbard, chief of the division. The "gallery" will be used in tracing complaints filed by victims of quacks; in preparing cases against violators of the medical and drug laws, and in all other legitimate channels. It will not be open or available to the curious.
Dr. Wynne Opened Drive
In announcing the new "Rogues Gallery," Commissioner Wynne stressed the importance of the new work which, in reality, had its inception when Dr. Wynne, early in the present year, opened his drive to rid the radio broadcasting field of medical quacks, and other charlatans. The Commissioner appealed to the National Radio Commission, the United States Public Health Service, and the Federal Trade Commission, urging a joint survey of the radio field throughout the United States, and the movement for a national index which would be available to all radio broadcasting stations.
While the survey and national index is still under consideration, the delay in action caused Commissioner Winne to act. This was augmented by the almost daily receipt of scores of letters from victims of quacks and from those who had been made ill by patent medicines, hair dyes, cosmetics and the like, all of which first were referred to the Bureau of Food and Drugs for investigation. Upon the completion of the latter the data were turned over to the Davidson of Legal Medicine, which ordered the manufacturer of illegal or dangerous dyes, cosmetics, patent concoctions, etc., to cease and to withdraw the condemned articles from the New York City market. If resistance was offered, court action followed. In 1929 alone 60 of these articles were withdrawn from sale here.
Individual Crooks Listed
Individual crooks, their affiliations, if any, with corporations; their aliases, the name of the article, medicine, nostrum, diet, exercise "cure" or whatever they have for sale, are listed separately. Their entire life history, their schools, habits, methods and the various cities or districts in which the have operated are noted; if they have been arrested or convicted, this is shown, together with the charges and the disposition of their cases.
"The completion of the so called 'Rogues' Gallery of the New York City Department of Health," said Health Commissioner Shirley W. Wynne yesterday, undoubtedly is one of the most important strides this city has made in its drive to rid the city of the human cultures who prey on the well in addition to the sick and whom we rightly regard as one of the most dangerous, of all

With such a complete list we should now be able to cope with a situation which has been growing more dangerous each year, especially since the quack and charlatan have been permitted to broadcast over the radio. We do not have much trouble in outusing the illegal medical practitioner, since we are convinced of his culpability. All that is necessary is to turn the matter over to the State Board of Regents which can revoke the license of the guilty party and if he attempts to practice here without a license again he will be arrested.
"Corporation" Quacks.
'Our greatest battle has been against 'corporation medicine' and the radio quack. The 'corporation quack usually deals in 'marvelous discoveries' for the 'cure' of one of a group of diseases. His product may be a vapor, a machine, a diet, an exercise, a non-electrical or electrical device. Wherever possible the 'corporation quack' or very old physicians, neither of whom are able to make a living in the general profession. In invariably the 'corporation quack' is an individual or a group of individuals, medical or otherwise, who have been linked up with some other questionable medical or health device which, because of exposure, had to withdraw from the market. Then the new device or what you have is developed, advertised like a circus and the coffers filled to overflowing by the gullible.
'The 'corporation quack' deals in everything from the so called 'horse collar', the successor to the discredited 'electric belt' to 'pills and fluid medicine'. Or he may have a device by which through inhalation the victim believes he is to be 'cured', or it may be a ray machine, or some other equally useless and dangerous contraption. The operators of this form of quackery usually seek protection through incorporation and invariably have ample financial backing, as well of the support of the best lawyers they can hire."

Negro Year Book To Show Many Race Changes
.
Tuskegee Institute, Ala—Many changes in the status of the Negro during the five-year period, 1925 through 1930, have been effected, according to Monroe N Work, director of the department of records and research, and editor of the Negro Year Book, in speaking to the summer school students of Tuskegee Institute. Taking the new Negro Year Book, now in progress of publishing, as a source, Prof. Work sketched briefly the advance of the Negro in race relations, the arts, economics, politics and education, calling attention to Negro life, not only in the United States, but in Africa, Europe, the West Indies and Latin America as well.

Letters from Dr. George E. Haynes, secretary, Federal Council's Commission on Race Relations, who is now making a study for the International Survey Committee of the Christian Associations in South Africa, report experiences of great interest in his visits in the interior of South Africa.
A letter written on June 11 from Durban, Natal, tells of the keen interest of the natives to hear about Negro process in America. Through the cooperation of Max Yergen, YMCA secretary and African natives who have been educated in America, Dr. Haynes is having an unusual opportunity to see native African life in parts of the country which are little affected by European influence. One of the African leaders has taken Dr. Haynes on a three-day auto trip into the heart of Zulu land. This leader was educated at Oberlin College in the United States and is the principal school on the order of Tuskegee. On his trip Dr. Haynes has been impressed by both the similarities and differences between the race problems of that country with those of the United States. Leaders of both races in South Africa are looking to this country for help in meeting the problems which they face.

Tulsa, Okla., Business Men Visit New York City
J. W. Hughes, principal of the Dunbar School of Tulsa, Okla, and Mr. and Mrs. Fred Thompson, also of Tulsa, are spending a few days in New York.
Mr. Hughes was a visitor to The New York' Age office on Monday and reports that the colored people of his city have completely recovered, financially, from the effects of the race riots of 1921, at which time 35 city blocks in the colored section of the city were burned.
Citing his own recovery as an example, Mr. Hughes stated that 9 houses which he owned were burned. He has rebuilt these houses and now has a total of eleven houses, including a new home for himself and family recently erected at a cost of $6000. The oil boom in Tulsa is 'responsible for much of the prosperity in the Oklahoma metropolis.
Messrs. Hughes and Thompson are combining 'business with pleasure, their mission being partly to buy oil claims from former residents of the industrial wood who are now living in the East. Their trip was made by motor and they are guests at the Hotel Dumas while in the city.
