July 15.
The directors voted not to renew Morsell's contract which expires on September 15. Dr. Erroll D. Collymore, chairman of the committee of management, and Dr. Arthur M. Williams members of the committee, were also removed.
While Mr. Morsell could not be reached by a reporter for The Age, he being at Bordentown, N. J., attending the Y. M. C. A. Stuart conference there, it was learned from good authority that his dismissal is a direct result of the moving of the two colored doctors, Dr. Erroll D. Collymore, dentist, and Dr. A. M. Williams, physician, who were also members of the Martine Branch, into homes in the exclusive, Highlands section of White Plains.
Many of the members of the board of directors are big real estate men in this city and it is said that it was through their insistence that Mr. Morsell's contract has not been reviewed.
Real Estate Men Act
From sources close to the executive secretary it was learned that the dismissal are as follows. That the contract between the Y officials and Mr. Morsell called him in White Plains specially for the purpose of bettering relationship between the two races. And when the two colored doctors moved in to the exclusive white residential districts the real estate men raised a cry, and efforts were made to force Drs. Collymore and Williams out of the neighborhood. When Morsell, who had made his residence with Dr. Collymore, temporarily until suitable quarters could be found for himself and family also moved to the Collymore residence in the white neighborhood, appeals were made to the city officials of White Plains and the Y. M. C. A. to oust him.
From authentic sources it was learned that the Y. M. C. A. directors took the position that Morsell had placed the Y. in an embarrassing position. This, it was pointed out, was the result of his continuing to reside with Dr. Corynynge until he was able to find a home suitable for his family at 819 East 160th street, Bronx, where he is now residing with his family, composed of his wife, Mrs. Maud W. Morrall, and two children, John 18, and Justine 15.
One of the big white officials of the Y. M. C. A. whose name could not be learned, is said to have informed Mr. Morsell of his dismissal on Wednesday morning. He told the Negro secretary that when he was brought to White Plains to head the Martine Avenue Branch, he was expected to bring about better relation between the two races. He is also said to have directly charged that Mr. Morsell himself responsible for Drs. Collymore and Williams moving into the exclusive section and is said to have intimated that Morsell himself engineered the removal of the two doctors into the Highlands section. And since their residence had caused such protest on the part of the white people there his usefulness was at an end, and that the board of directors had not to renew his contract.

Lenox Ave. Shopkeeper Strikes Colored Woman, Near Riot Follows
Police-reserves had to be called out Saturday afternoon, when a crowd of more than 400 people threatened P. Nasselbaum, who conducts a hat cleaning and shoe shining parlor at 395 Lenox avenue, after he struck a colored woman. The woman, Mrs. Lillian Middleton of 383 Convent avenue, went to the shop to get a hat she had left there, and then complained because the ribbon had not been cleaned.
An argument followed, and Mrs. Middleton told the police that Nasselbaum struck her, knocking, her to the floor. Two men passing heard the shouts for help, and other Negroes' rushed in, Patrolman Edward Schultz also rushed to the scene and locked Nasselbaum in a washroom for the sake of safety; and then sent in a call for the reserves. The crowd numbered over 400 around the shop when the police reserves arrived: Nasselbaum was taken to the West 123rd street police station and a charge of assault was preferred against him. In the Night Court Nasselbaum was paroled in the custody of his lawyer for a hearing July 29, after Patrolman Schultz told Magistrate Farrell that Mrs. Middleton was too ill to appear.
$10 Causes Arrest of Inspector and Cop on Charges of Extortion
A tenement house inspector and a policeman of 18 year's experience who had been temporarily assigned to the Tenement House Department, were arrested Friday, July 18, on a charge of extortion growing out of a complaint made by Charles Woodbine, Negro of 210 East 102nd street. "The men were Inspector Joseph Tierney, 30 of 7842 Fourth avenue, Brooklyn and Patrolman Henry Porter, 41 of 7842 Roosevelt avenue, Jackson Heights, Queens, attached to the West 135th Street police station. Woodbine charged that he had given $10 to them when they allegedly found a still in his home on Thursday. He said the tenement inspector and the patrolman told him he might go to jail for a year for having a still. He said he gave them $50 and promised them that he would destroy the still.
When they left Woodbine told his neighbors about his visitors. Another neighbor had the same experience and they went to Captain John McGrath of the East 104th street police station who ordered the arrest of

NEGROES TAKE PRIMARY TEST TO SUPREME COURT Ask Reversal of Arkansas Court Upholding Women as Defense
Washington, D. C.—A petition was filed in the Supreme Court on July 17 for a ruling as to whether state political party organizations may lawfully prohibit Negroes from participating in their primaries. The case comes from Arkansas. J. M. Robinson and other Negroes living in Lifetime Rock said they voted the Democratic ticket were consistent supporters of the party platforms. They protested against being barred from the Democratic primaries in November, 1928, obtained a temporary injunction and voted before the state courts could hear the case on its merits.
Holmes Decision Recalled
The Arkansas Supreme Court later set aside the temporary injunction and dismissed the proceedings, taking the position that the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments, under which the Negroes claim, they had the right to vote at Democratic primaries, referred only to what states were prohibited from doing in the way of restricting the voting rights of Negroes and did not apply to party organizations.
In March, 1927, the United States Supreme Court in a suit from El Paso, Tex., brought by L. A. Nixon, a Negro, held invalid a Texas statute prohibiting Negroes from voting in Democratic primaries. The opinion was delivered by Justice Holmes. It declared the Texas law a direct and obvious infringement of the Fourteenth Amendment.
The Arkansas Court Decision
The Arkansas Supreme Court declared the Nixon decision did not prohibit a political organization from determining its own membership or from deciding who it would permit to vote at its primaries.
Pointing out the uniform success of the .Democratic candidates in the Arkansas elections, the protestants claimed that, being denied the right to vote in the primaries deprived them of their most important constitutional right.

Aged Messenger Gets Year's Extension Only, Not a Lifetime Tenure
Washington, D. C.-Although it was reported a few weeks ago that a lifetime tenure had been extended Eddie Savoy, 75, for 59 years a messenger in the office of the Secretary of State, it is now reported that it was only the personal plea of Secretary of State Stinson that the Civil Service. Commission would consent to even one more year's extension. He had been given two extensions, the last one expiring July 1. So the Secretary had to make a special visit to the Commission and plead that Savoy possesses "expert knowledge and qualifications."
Refuge Church of Christ, Apostolic Faith, Bishop R. C. Lawson, Head Is Celebrating 11th Anniversary
10-Day Program, Opened July 18, Participated In By City Ministers of All Denominations, With Home-Coming of Daughter Churches Eleven years ago the Rev. R. C. Lawson started an evangelistic open-air service on the street corners of Harlem.
Beginning July 18, the new Bishop Lawson began the celebration of his eleventh anniversary, marking the growth of his work into the founding of the Apostolic Church of Christ, represented in New York City by the structures at 52-56 West 133rd street, housing the mother church, the Refuge Church of Christ, where daily and nightly the edifice is stronged, with followers of his faith, with those devoutly interested, and others who are drawn to the church by the intense magnetic personality of the man of God who has made an indelible impress upon the religious life and development of the community.
Branch Churches Formed
In addition to the parent, body, the Refuge Church of Christ of the Apostolic Faith, the work has spread into all sections of the country, and there are now bodies of, worshipers under the church banner, in communities from New England to Florida. A casual glance over the columns of "The Condender of the Faith," the official organ published by the Church of Christ Publishing Co. shows reports from branch churches located in New Jersey, Ohio, District of Columbia, South Carolina and Florida. Besides, Bishop Lawson has acquired valuable properties on which he plans to establish an educational foundation through which educational advantages will be afforded hundreds of children who are now deprived of the opportunity.
City Ministers Cooperate
The anniversary services marking the eleventh year of service will continue through to the end of this present week. Each night ministers from various of the city churches, of all denominations, are present with choirs and congregations, helping to make the anniversary observance one of the most notable occasions in the church life of the race in New York City. Three services daily, morning, noon and night, are being held.
One of the features of the week will be a home-coming of the daughter churches, a gathering of representatives from all those church bodies that have grown out from the Refuge Church of Christ.
Bishop Lawson is in charge of the program each day, and he is having the earnest and active cooperation of the officers and members of the parent church.
The National Convention
This-anniversary celebration is to be followed closely by the 11th National Convention of the Church of Christ of the Apostolic Faith, which will convene August 25th to September 8, inclusive, the sessions to be held here in the mother church. Pastors and re-presentatives from each of the daughter churches are expected to be present, with special reference to the Sunday school bodies Twenty schools were represented last year, and Bishop Lawson indicates the possibility that this number will be considerably augmented this year. The mother church will furnish stopping places for all out-of-town delegates and visitors, and meals will be supplied on the free will offering plan.
In connection with this weeks celebration of the 11th birthday of the Refuge Church of Christ, Bishon Lawson announced that the church is rejoicing over the baptizing of 260 candidates during the past year, and in many cases of divine healing at the Friday night fasting and praying service, many of whom are敬ed or helped in cases of tumors, heart disease, rheumatism and complications.
At a meeting of the members of the county committee of the Republican organization of the 19th Assembly District, held at the Central Republican Club on Monday night, July 21, Attorney Myles A. Paige was designated as the Republican candidate from that district for the Assembly. Mr. Paige who is now deputy Attorney General of the State of New York, indicated to the Age that he would accept the designation, although his present position pays more money than an Assemblyman receives. A position in the lawmaking body in the State of New York offers an opportunity to be of greater service to the race, he said.
He is a native of Montgomery, Ala., and after graduating from the Ala. State-Normal School, he completed his college work at Howard University, Washington, and also took up the study of law in the Howard Law School. He continued the study of law at Columbia University Law School, graduating with high honors in 1923. He has been active in politics since beginning the practice of law, which was well as his fraternal life of Harlem. He will succeed Assemblyman Francis E. Rivers, who has accepted the designation as the Republican candidate for Justice of the new Municipal Court, which his bill created.
Hon, Edward A. Johnson, first Negro Assemblyman to be sent to Albany from Harlem and the Republican candidate for Congress from the 21st Congressional District "two years ago, will again be the congressional candidate from this district, according to reports coming to Harlem on Tuesday.
He was selected as the Republican designee on Monday by the congressional committee, of the district—Jack' Friedman of the 23rd A. D., John A. Boles, leader of the 22nd A. D. and Mrs. Hester Green, co-leader of the 21st A. D.—says Samuel F. Holman, president of the Harlem. Registration League, which sponsored Mr. Johnson's candidacy.
8-Year Old Child Knocked Down By Taxi
Considerable excitement was created in the neighborhood of 120th street and Eighth avenue about 3:30 p. m. on Monday when an 8 year old girl was knocked down and seriously injured by a Paramount taxicab, driven by James Naughton of 112 West 120th street.

She was taken to the Sydenham Hospital and the taxicab driver was placed under arrest.

Opinions Given By
Reception To
Many have have been the comments from men and women concerning the speech made b Alderman Fred R. Moore, editor of the New York Age, on the occasion of the reception by the City of New York on July 11, to the Negro Gold Star Mothers who were enroute to the cemeteries in France where their sons are buried.
Mr. Moore took exception to the action of the government in sending the colored mothers in a separate group, even though it was on a first-class ship, with every comfort and convenience. He challenged the attitude of officials of the War Department, and declared that colored and white mothers should have been on the same ships, urging that such contacts would have been of immeasurable benefit to both groups.
By wire, by mail, by telephone and by personal calls have come messages of approbation.
Mr. and Mrs. Trank Brightaupt sent a telegram reading: "We are happy to have, a man of our race like you who expresses truth at the opportunity time. Your speech today was par excellent. Accept our congratulations and may God bless you.

Board, for work among colored men,
wrote: "Your address on the occasion of New York's welcome, to the Negro Gold Star Mothers had the right ring to it. We cannot be too explicit in our denunciation of the cowardly attitude of the government in hiding behind steamship companies to justify its prejudiced handling of this situation."
William H. Worthan, president of the Philip A. Payton Jr. Go., realtors, said: "A word of congratulation upon your remarkable address at City Hall yesterday. From the standpoint of appropriateness, logic clarity, eloquence and earnestness, I think it your masterpiece. It was most fortunate that upon such an occasion, and at such a place, you should be at, what I consider, your very best. Your deep sincerity and borning words left no doubt in the minds of your hearers as to how close to your heart last, the whole question of racial discrimination. You sounded a note which I believe will serve notice to all, who heard you of the determined purpose of the Negro to fight for all that should rightfully be, his as a citizen." Mr. E. C. Ross, chairman of the Deacon Board, St. James Presbyterian Church, expresses himself as follows: "I for one was grateful for your speech, at the reception to this

While reminiscing with the veterans of the Association around their recent monthly campfire Sergeant Rufus had them spellbound and poppedey when describing a new combined saber and pistol course now in use at Fort Riley. Sergeant Rufus said a trooper enters the winding course at. full charge, fires seven shots, returns pistol, draws saber and takes seven heads with the saber, all in 56 second! The veterans of the Association, shook their heads and said it was wonderful. If true, surely, only they must be made up of a regiment of "H. G. Wells" super-men and horses? Or perhaps the Sergeant had been entertained by some "real New Yorker" before reaching the Association rooms?
Sergeant Rufus has completed 20 years continuous service as a mounted man and in that time he has traveled around the world and served in nearly one of the country's island possessions. He is an excellent horseman, an excellent shot with both rifle and pistol and a crack swordman. He is a fine physical specimen and looks every inch the regular cavalryman that he is. Trooper James A. Combs of the Association, and also a _James_ will enter in Sergeant Rufus and the members of the Association at his home at a dinner on July 13. Sergeant Rufus left to rejoin his regiment a Fort Riley on July 14.

Woman Church Worker Makes Charge That Bridge St. Church Policy Is Dictated By Two Of Its Officers
Mrs. Gertrude Brawner Declares That Women of the Church Are Barred From Active Work Unless They Submit to Men's Domination
Mrs. Gertrude Brawner of 494 Hancock street, Brooklyn, who was elected as an alternate delegate from Bridge Street A. M. E. Church, Brooklyn, to the Electoral College of the New York Annual Conference, writes to The Age charging that John D. Nixon, who was elected as the regular delegate, is under charges that make him ineligible to function.
The election was held July 2, and Mrs. Brawner opposed Mr. Nixon in the balloting. The result showed votes for Nixon, with 33 for Mrs. Brawner. So Nixon was named delegate and Mrs. Brawner alter-nate.
Have an equal opportunity and an equal representation, and unless some one cries out against these injustices they will never cease. I have worn my health out, fighting
Mrs. Brawner states that the election was held at a church conference, with the pastor, the Rev. Dr. E. E. Tyler, presiding. Nixon is chairman and superintendent of the Sunday school. Mrs. Brawner is a missionary worker in the church. After receiving these preliminary facts, Mrs. Brawner writes that just four years ago, Nixon defeated her opponent in a landslide attack upon her personally. She immediately appealed the matter to Bishop W. H. Heard, at that time presiding over this district, but was given no consideration. She then took the case to court, filing suit against Mr. Nixon in the sum of $10,000 for defamation of character.
Suit Still Pending
This suit, she declares, has never come to trial because one of the lawyers, Samuel F. Edmead, is himself serving a term in jail, and that with these charges pending against Nixon, he has no right to continue functioning as a church officer. She recalled that eight years ago the general counsel of the church are eligible to hold any church office, but she charges that in Bridge Street Church there are 'two officers', a trustee and a steward, who are dictating the church policy, and no member, unless in accord with these 'two, is given any consideration. These two men, she charges, hold as many offices as they choose, and although the women do practically all the work and are responsible for its continue execution, are given little or no consideration. She write further: 'They (the women) can hold the office of stewardess or deacons if these two officers think it wise and then they don't dare speak their conviction for fear of being put out of office. The time has come when we should

The new appointees to the board are Samuel A. Gibbs, probation officer for the City of New York, leader of the city's major organizations, N. J.

The considerable increase in population of the Borough of Brooklyn and the heavy demands upon the few social work organizations warrants the assistance and cooperation of these new leaders.
Have an equal opportunity and 'an equal representation, and unless some one cries out against these injustices they will never cease.

Parlor Car Porters Give 19th Annual Dance
The 19th annual dance of the Original Long Island Parlor Carrier Porters was held evening, July 16 at Eashtampling, Long Island. It was largely attended and proved to be a most enjoyable affair.
Many parties motored or went bus from New York and Jersey. One from New York appealed to Stephen Morris, John Henderson, Mr. Pringle, Loren H. H. White and M. Thompson, driving out in Mr. Thompson's seven-passenger Packard.
The New York State public school system was established in 1805, 125 years ago, by a public subscription of $4,910 and an appropriation of 20,000. The state now spends more than 300 millions yearly on public education.
Bishop W. P. Thirkield Commends The Age On Gold Star Mother Stand
Bishop W. P. Thirkield Commends The Age On Gold Star Mother Stand
Editor of The New York' Age:
Let me thank you for your pertinent and strong utterance on the segregation of the Gold 'Star mothers and forms of discrimination imposed on them in their sacred journey to the graves of our-American heroes.
Deeper than any deprivation or discomfort on the part of those noble women who gave their sons for the cause of higher democracy, is the lost opportunity on the part of the officials of the Government to bring the race groups together to high high levels of success. This is one of the serious situations in our modern 'American life.
Instead of consolidating the entire number of colored women in one group, rendering it difficult to secure transportation on one of our regular carriers, we have moved over in small groups, along with groups of white women, and thus have brought the two races into helpful and sympathetic contact. Their mutual sense of common sacrifice and common loss would have served better for both men and women, gard and would, have drawn them into relations helpful to both race groups.
It was an unprecedented opportunity through such contacts to greatly alter race understanding, cooperation and mutual support, a case where the yielding to the spirit of caste and race prejudice on the part of certain officials, has retarded rather than helped, race adjustment and mutual good will in our American life. We faithfully, WILBUR P, THIRKIELD, Marshfield, Mass.
Treatment of Gold Star Mothers Editor of The New York Age: I stood in line wearing a suit I have worn for over twenty years. I have worn it in a plea. Inside of the City Hall of the greatest State of America, I heard the tearful voice of one of our champions' voice. his feelings, his state, but against the treatment of those dear aged women who had lost their all in the fight that man might be free from all the things that are mean, low or degrading, to the men ten years back to the years he ran for office.
What a struggle he had. I did not marvel at that, because no man who ever championed, a cause ever had the chance to travel in any other way but rough, and I am afraid to be billed for that. That fate has fixed each one of our troubles, just a little harder to awaken the growing Negro, to the fact, that unless he is willing to put his shoulder to the wheel, and help to bring the wagon out of the mire, he will go slim for his support, his fair skin brothers enjoy all that this old world has to give
We pattern after our fair brother in all he attempts to do. Many times we take his crown in the contest. Taking a true interest in taking care of his children, giving the service that we promise, taking heed to what men like DePriest, Freed Moore and others, who prove their loyalty by getting schools for our loved ones, getting us out of trouble when he asks us to help with other ways giving us proof of their love and devotion, it would not be long before our children could speak with the same pride that Mr. Moore spoke when he said, "I and my people are American," and "I am proud of it. There is only one flag. A tree that bears no fruit is cut down and thrown in the fire. We are only a small group, the Gospel said.
A mustard seed is the smallest of all seeds, still, with proper soil it becomes the greatest of all.

White Plains Y. M. C. A. Fires Negro Secretary

missed secretary, it was said that the Y. M. C. A. officitals had even approached him to see if he would not prevail upon Drs. Collymore and Williams to give up their newly bought homes and move back into the colored section. This entreaty fell on deaf ears, however, since Morsell took the position that it was not just to ask the two women to give up their homes, and that their residence in the white section did not concern him.
Just what are Dr. Morsell's plans for the future, when his contract expires, could not be learned. Dr. Williams and Dr. Collymore have announced that they have no intentions of giving up their home action of the A.C. officials and the dismissal of Morsell have caused a storm of protest as to "the Christianity of the Young Men's Christian Association."
Workera Denounce Dismissal.
In Bordentown, N. J., where various workers in the colored Y. M. C. A's throughout the East are in session, the following resolution condemning the actions of the White Plains officials was adopted: the secreting secretary and laymen representing the service of the Young Men's Christian Association among colored men and boys in conference assembled, deplore the situation which has developed in the Young Men's Christian Association at White Plains, X. Y., and further deplore the action of the board of directors of the White Plains young Men's Christian Association in connection with Dr. Errol D. more, chairman, and Dr. Arthur K. Williams, from the committee of management of the Colored Branch, and for dismissing the executive
Dining Car Employees Hold Third Triennial Convention In New York City, With Pres. Lemus Presiding
"Progress is digestion. Digestion mostly is what food preparation, service and handling make it. You prepare, serve, handle, the food of this country on the move. Hence the digestion, therefore the Progress of this Nation is largely committed to your keeping. Wherefore yours is the basically most vital function of any group of rail employees—not even excepting the engine and signal forces."
So declared Grand President Rienzi B. Lemus to the convention of the Brotherhood of Dining Car employees in evening session at the New York Market, where he joined July 15. The dining car cooks-waiters union held its third triennial meeting here July 14-15-16. All sessions, were held at the Urban League building. The convention was called by order of Past Grand President Thomas O. Gee of Philadelphia. He was the president's address, in the form of a recapitulation of "Ten Years of the Brotherhood.
Mr. Lemus said wages are 100 per cent higher than before the war and 60 per cent higher than the railroads intended them to be afterwards—all and categorical because of your work. Brotherhood, he said. He working conditions are at least 300 per cent better. "Remember how we used to pay $2, $3, $4 a month each for breakage on the Pennsylvania, sure! and why do we not pay it any more? because you broke it up, and it is written in the contract," he admitted. July 17
President Lemus said the Brotherhood of Dining Car Employees is the only rail labor organization of colored men, more or less, having signed copies of contracts with railroad companies on file in the U. S. Mediation Board.
"Be not annoyed, brethren, because your organization does not encompass the work. Your work does like Booker Washington's Tuskegee railroad thats but a mile long; you are standard-gauged. Better to get one man a raise in pay and pay for overtime service: rendered opportunity to be fairly when accused, then to be wasting energy talking about what's going to be done for the multitudes—when Martin comes" the dining car chieftain added.
The last contract was made by the Brotherhood and the Boston and St. Louis based on April 18, 1930, sued feeding "gentleman's agreement" continuously in effect since 1921, he said.
"Your greatest achievement was recognition of the Brotherhood as such by the dining car management on the Pennsylvania Railroad." President Lemus continued. "This nine year up-mountain and, at times, despairing task successfully ended less than two months ago, on May 21, when your chief servant was summoned to and cordially received in the headquarters of the dining car department by the Superintendent who said—"That door is open." He said to Mr. Lemus, "And don't forget Pennsylvania's gross income for 80 days equals or surpasses Pullman's gross for any year." Lemus added. He said it is infinitely easier for 5-times more to resist 10-times' mess, that it is for 5-times less to resist 10-times more.
Mr. Lemius astounded even his own group when he stated than no group of Negroes in the world has ever done as much for itself in its own community as any group of the Brotherhood of Dining Car Employees. "You have constrained-changes in diing car management due to the attempt of those at fault to shift responsibility for bar and uneconomic service to your private employer," he said; and you successfully convinced three high rail managements that new drivers were needed. he said. "You have done as much for yourself in ten years as it could be possible for any other group to do to ease under the most favorable circumstances," he declared.
"You put the 240-hour-month and overtime on the dining car for all cooks and waiters—black and white—on the Continent of North America, when you made the pre-production without which none would until this hour ever have heard of it." Lemus declared. "Then" he continued, "you have preserved it until now where you are employed—on three of the world's great passenger carriers," Pen New Haven—by the express contract in each, and throughout the dining car industry by force of example."
secretary of the work on the grounds that these men were not responsive to the wishes of the White Plains Young Men's Christian Association to the secret by them of certain fundamental citizenship privileges.
Contrary to Christianity.
"We believe this action to be contrary to the Christian principles of the Young Men's Christian Association and a direct violation of Association law." This conference regards this as more than a local issue, for, if such action is not challenged by the brotherhood, it may come to fie regarded as a precedent which will mean that the prize that a secretary would have to pay to hold his position in the question to the dictation of his board of directors, whatever the issue might be. This would be true also as to service of lauren on committees of management of branches. "We respectfully call upon the Start Committee of New York and the White Plains Board of Director with this action."
Mr. Lemus said wages are 100 per cent higher than before the war and 60 per cent higher than the railroads intended them to be afterwards—all you need and categories—all you work for.

"Remember how we used to pay $2, $3, $4 a month each for breakage on the Pennsylvania, sure! and why we paid you up, because you youoke up, and I is because in the contract," he thundered.
The convention adjourned July 17 to meet at Washington, D. C. in July, 1932. Grand President Lemus was re-elected. Also Herman L. Clark, New York, as grand secretary treasurer. Other officers elected were: Grand President J. F. Thomas, Boston M. Scott, Cennanti; J. A. Ware, Jersey City; R. Whiting New York; W. M. Belcher, Atlanta; J. G. Dickerson, Washington. J. P.

Former Red Cap Now In Pressing Business
After working for seven or eight years as a Red Cap at the Pennsylvania Station, Edward Virgin opened up a cleaning and press shop at 267 West 33rd street, just opposite the station, and made a bid for the business of his former fellow workers.
To his surprise and disappointment, only a few of the men gave him their uniforms and other clothing for cleaning, repairing and pressing, and even these few gradually withheld their work from him, according to a statement he has made to The Age.
He employed a young man as assistant who was a student at City College, and dependant upon his wages for financial support. But with the falling off of business, Mr. Virgin had finally to let the young man go.
Deeply discouraged, he thought his business venture was about to collapse, but chancing to meet one of the railroad officials, Virgin told him of his predicament. The official gave seed and immediately turned to the company, pleased was he that other officials were spoken to who gave him some of their work. A few weeks later, the first official had a story printed in the Pennsylvania News, the company's official organ, together with his picture. The result has been the growth of Virgin's business into a profitable enterprise, giving the bulk of his work from the railroad officials, together with other work from patrons of the Pennsylvania Hotel.

PRATERNAL BUILDING PROJECTS.
Several of our fraternal orders have vened to extend their essays in cooperative efforts beyond the original purposes of caring for the sick and burying the dead, they have begun to make provision for the benefit of the living in the shape of model housing enterprises, which serve lessen the congested conditions prevailing in Harlem, and at the same time remain modest dividends to the shareholders in bondholders. One of the most notable of these enterprises is that undertaken under the style of Monarch Lodge Apartments, Inc., which has erected and rented the members of the Elks the first unit of series of buildings on West 138th street. The success that has attended the first stage of this project has encouraged the corporators to proceed with the construction of a second unit to provide more names for the members of the order in joining lots. This building project is not in nature of a charitable proposition, but a purely business enterprise to provide additional housing of a modern and improved character, in a section where the conditions justify the investment. The capital is raised by an issue of bonds, which may be bought by members of the order and the general public. These bonds are secured by lien on the property and are commended by the incorporators as a wise investment. They are issued in denominations of twenty-five, fifty and one hundred dollars.
The next move of the organization will be to erect an upodate temple for lodge purposes. This last idea is not new to members of fraternal orders in this city, and the outcome has not always been that the projectors anticipated. The present plan, however, has provided the most essential revenue producing investment cost, so that an income may be provided from the first and second units of the housing enterprise before the temple project is begun. This seems to be a wise thought on the part of the founders of the organization, as although the temple could in time prove a self-supporting proposition, it would probably require more than the apartments to place it on at basis.
The housing proposition conducted under the auspices of this group of Elks appears to have been started on a sound plan, the first unit of apartments was readily rented and placed on a revenue producing basis. There should be no difficulty in disposing of the bonds necessary to provide the funds for further construction, investment in New York real estate based on permanent values. The venture of fraternal organizations into this mode of cooperative investment is an innovation that should prove of permanent benefit to both investors and tenants.
Ventures of this sort, under proper management, should help to lessen the condition of population and bring about better housing for the residents of Harlem.

HOW TO CURB COMMUNISM.
The Congressional committee appointed to investigate Communist activities in the United States held several sessions in New York City last week. The net result of the hearings, which were presided over by Representative Hamilton Fish, Jr., failed to bring out anything that was not already known about communist propaganda, although the witnesses examined by the committee included police and school officials, former Police Commissioner Whalen, Alderman Moore, A. Philip Randolph of the Pullman Porters' Brotherhood, the Rev. F. Ethelred Brown, a Unitarian clergyman, and others thought to be familiar with the tactics of the Reds. One of the police officials read an article purporting to come from Russian Soviet sources, in which stress was laid upon the necessity for the work of the International in the United States being put in the right way, as the results so far had been negligible. The American proletariat, or working classes, were held to be inoculated with small bourgeois ideas of saving, being fed down to stocks, private houses and automobiles. The ownership of any of these was evidently inconsistent with the

ideas of communism. The main reliance of the propagandist of communism was the fact that there are a great number of dissatisfied people in this country. The extension of communism must be made among these groups where dissatisfaction prevails.
For that extension the foreign Communists are obliged to seek out and depend upon their workers among the twelve millions of Negroes, and the two millions of whites who are unemployed, or the dissatisfied farmers. It is from these elements that the Communists expect to build up their ranks in America, not among the small tradesmen nor the skilled manual workers, who are drawing high wages, through the strength of the trades unions to which they belong. It was also urged that communistic ideas must be spread among the victims of the sweat shops, who were termed excellent material for a revolutionary movement. Dissatisfaction with present social or economic conditions is the necessary condition to make converts to communistic doctrines.
It is plain to be seen why a foreign communist should count the twelve million Negroes in America as fruitful soil to furnish recruits for a revolutionary movement, as no group is subjected to greater social and political discrimination or suffers greater economic injustice. But there are many reasons which prevent the race from grasping at the tempting bait of communistic teachings as a panacea for any or all of these evils. This was shown by the testimony of several of the witnesses as to the small results accruing from communistic efforts made among the group in New York. The New York Negro would prove especially poor material for communistic propaganda, since most of the group are essentially bourgeois in their ideals and aspirations. At the same time they are not satisfied with the discriminations practiced against the race at large, and do not hesitate to express that dissatisfaction in orthodox fashion when opportunity affords.
Thus the Fish Committee was told that the main causes for discontent among the ranks of those who espoused communistic principles were lynchings widespread peonage in the South, and the withholding of the franchise in certain localities. The Constitution' and the laws of both the national and State government should be ample to remedy these conditions. So the Congressional Committee has only to recommend the enforcement of the constitution and the laws as the best way of curing communism. If the laws of the states are inadequate to stop lynchings or mob murders, then Congress should step in and enact a Federal law to reach that matter.
Dissatisfaction with existing evils is at the bottom of all conversions to communism. Without that there would be no room for communistic propaganda. At that the recruits made to communism are few and far between, because thinking people believe that the evils that would follow in its trail, would transcend those from which the country now suffers.
LYNCHING MADE THE ISSUE.
The Columbia State and the Charleston News and Courier, the leading white趴ies in the State, in a front page editorial in the issue of July 9, declared that south Carolina Democrats cannot renominate Cole Blease for *Senator* this year without endorsing lynching. The editorial continued:
There is no way of getting out of it. The News and Courier, regrets that the issue has been made. The people cannot re-elect Mr. Blease without endorsing lynching. Mr. Blease's speech was not so interestful, if not the contribution to the propaganda of Northern Negro agitators and especially the Society for the Advancement of Colored People that has been made in twenty years. They will say when the bill to try lynchers in federal courts shall come into effect, if South Carolina shall re-elect Mr. Blease.

There is no way of getting out of it. The News and Courier, regrets that the issue has been made. The people cannot re-elect Mr. Blease without endorsing lynching, but it was the greatest contribution to the propaganda of Northern Negro agitators and especially the Society for the Advancement of Colored People that has been made in twenty-years. They will say when the bill to try lynchers in federal courts shall come up, if South Carolina shall re-elect Mr. Blease.
Look at South Carolina. As a state it endorses lynching With white judges, white sheriffs, with courts and government all white, and no Negroes on juries, it still endorses lynching. Senator Blease, who has been the his advocate of it. It is the duty of the Congress of the United States, to protect the lives of its citizens. Shall the courts' and the laws of a state that endorses lynching in a state-wide election be trusted to protect the lives of American citizens. That will the argue the rights of transfer rules of laws to United States courts. How can any senator or congressman of South Carolina answer it?
Senator Blease at Union made the issue plain.
This is the result of Blease's unblushing and defiant advocacy of lynching, which rovoked 'strong editorial rebukes' from such liberal minded Northern papers as
This is the result of Blease's unblushing and defiant advocacy of Lynching; which provoked strong editorial rebukes from such liberal minded Northern papers as the New York World and the Telegraph. But his advocacy of murder by the mob is too flagrant a defiance of law and order for the conservative journals of his own State, as shown by this protest against his renomination. Blease should not only be retired to private life, but under the law he should be indicted as an instigator to riot and lawlessness.
both black men and women, like that of both black men and women like that of Aiken two years ago, have been allowed to go without punishment, does not inspire much confidence in the willingness of South Carolina voters to repudiate Blease and his incitement to murder. There may be many good people in South Carolina who are opposed to murder and lynching, but they are mostly inarticulate and helpless before the mob. However, the issue has been drawn and South Carolina must meet it. This Southern protest against lynching should appeal to all Southerners who have not become inoculated with the lynching fever.
I$ AL SINGER YELLOW?
As color has a great deal to do with the arrangement of contests in the first arena, as well as the outcome of the same many of the fight fans are propounding the question, "Is Al Singer yellow? Singer is the fighter who was awarded the lightweight championship last week after he had apparently smashed the former champion, Sammy Mandell, in less than two minutes pounding in the first round. Some of the New York fight writers were not slow to assert that the title was bought and sold, while other attributed the collapse of Mandell to having weakened himself by reducing weight, a warning to many of the other sex. Be that as it may, the first announcement of the new champion was that would fight anyone for the title except Kid Chocolate, thereby drawing the course.
This barring of the colored fighter not solely on account of his color, but because he has proved himself too formable an opponent for Singer to dispose of without incurring considerable risk, was shown when they met before. Sing now puts his refusal to meet Chocolate to the ground that he would be going out this class to fight a featherweight, but even the fight writers take but little stock that evasion. Paul Gallico in the Daily News said:
I note from an account that Kid Chocolate has already been barred as an opponent and it seems to me that this a prop beginning. His hair is kinky and his skin too body of choice for the teenager, but he can fight like hell. No champion is ever really champion until he acquires some or duck. Singer's management apparently waited just long enough for Al to reach dressing room before supplying that deficiency. Welcome to the championship.
The new champion, whose real name, Abraham Singer, is a Jewish youth from the East Side, which prompted another air and outspoken ring critic, Dan Park of the Daily Mirror, to say:
Colored folks say they get the most terent treatment at the hands of Jews. This, perhaps, accounted for by the fact that the Jews themselves know what persecution is and sympathize deeply with another reason that has felt the heel of oppression. It too body of choice for the teenager, but his race, that in his first statement after winning the lightweight title Al Singer should say: "I will take on all comers in Kid Chocolate."
But what has the New York State Boxing Commission to say about this violation of all rules of fairplay and refusal to give colored fighters a chance to prove their merits, either because of fear of the wresters or as a concession to racial prejudice? Both Mr. Farley and General Phelan are conceded to be fairminded more honorable in their dealings and not to be influenced by either commercial or prejudiced motives. The other member, Mufeldon, has shown himself for unknown reasons firmly opposed to giving colored fighters an even break. But even his low career in athletic affairs and positive idea in the subject should not enable him to dominate the other two members to the detriment of the sport.
Most of the fairminded writers on the subject agree that the boxing game is ruled by commercialism and marked by unfair discrimination against colored fighters. The Boxing Commission is supposed to be the safeguard against such degradation and ruination of what was once a popular sport. When it has failed pointlessly to fulfill its functions, it should be done away with and some new form of supervision provided.
As color has a great deal to do with the arrangement of contests in the fistic arena, as well as the outcome of the same, many of the fight fans are propounding the question, "Is Al Singer yellow?" Singer is the fighter who was awarded the lightweight championship last week, after he had apparently smashed the former champion, Sammy Mandell, in less than two minutes pounding in the first round. Some of the New York fight writers were not slow to assert that the title was bought and sold, while others attributed the collapse of Mandell to his having weakened himself by 'reducing weight, a warning to many of the other sex. Be that as it may, the first announcement of the new champion was that he would fight anyone for the title except Kid Chocolate, thereby drawing the color line.
This barring of the colored fighter is not solely on account of his color, but because he has proved himself too formidable an opponent for Singer to dispose of without incurring considerable risk, as was shown when they met before. Singer now puts his refusal to meet Chocolate on the ground that he would be going out of his class to fight a featherweight, but even the fight writers take but little stock in that evasion. Paul Gallico in the Daily News said:
I note from an account that Kid Chocolate has already been barred as an opponent and it seems to me that this a proper beginning. His hair is kinky and his skin the color of a chocolate easter rabbit, and he can fight like hell. No champion is ever really champion until he acquires some one to touch Singer's management apparently waited just long enough for Al to reach the dressing room before supplying that deficiency. Welcome to the championship, Al.
The new champion, whose real name is Abraham Singer, is a Jewish youth from the East Side, which prompted another fair and outspoken ring critic, Dan Parker of the Daily Mirror, to say:
Colored folks say they get the most tolerant treatment at the hands of Jews. This is perhaps unwelcome to the man that the two themselves know what persecution is and sympathize deeply with another race that has felt the heel of oppression. It is too bad, therefore, for the tolerant traditions of his race, that in his first statement after writing the twentieth edition All Corners should say: "I will take on all Corners but Kid Chocolate."
But what has the New York State Boxing Commission to say about this violation of all rules of fairplay and refusal to give colored fighters a chance to prove their merits, either because of fear of their prowess or as a concession to racial prejudice? Both Mr. Farley and General Phelan are conceded to be fairminded men, honorable in their dealings and not to be influenced by either commercial or prejudiced motives. The other member, Mr. Muldoon, has shown himself for unknown reasons firmly opposed to giving colored fighters an even break. But even his long career in athletic affairs and positive ideas on the subject should not enable him to dominate the other two members to the detriment of the sport.
Most of the fairminded writers on the subject agree that the boxing game is ruled by commercialism and marked by unfair discrimination against colored fighters. The Boxing Commission is supposed to be the safeguard against such degradation and ruination of what was once a popular sport. When it has failed so pointedly to fulfill its functions, it should be done away with and some new form of supervision provided.
NOT AN UNKNOWN HEROINE
The reference in "Black Manhattan" by James Weldon Johnson to the fact that Jim Crow cars were abolished in New York through the instrumentality of "hilliant Negro woman teacher," has prooked some speculation as to the identity of the unknown heroine and the reason for her name not being disclosed.

The reference in "Black Manhattan" by James Weldon Johnson to the fact that Jim Crow cars were abolished in New York through the instrumentality of "a militant Negro woman teacher," has provoked some speculation as to the identity of the unknown heroine and the reasons for her name not being disclosed. The name of Chester A. Arthur was mentioned as being one of the counsel who prosecuted her action in court.
In searching for the facts relating to this incident of unwritten history, The Age was informed that the teacher who made such a firm protest as to require the use of force to eject her from a public vehicle which excluded colored passengers was Mrs. Elizabeth Jennings Graham, a teacher one time in the Colored Community.

School on West Forty-first street, under the principalship of Professor Charles L. Reason. The vehicle from which she was ejected was said to to be a Broadway stage, which at that time refused to accept colored passengers. The lawyer who prosecuted her suit to a successful issue, doing away with any color line in city conveyances, was Chester A. Arthur, who afterward became Collector of Customs at New York and later was elevated to the Presidency of the United States through the killing of President Garfield, shortly after he took of-
The Philadelphia Tribune which is conducting a crusade for jobs, in cooperation with the Armstrong Association, and a citizens' committee, finds that it is sometimes as difficult to get persons for jobs as it is to get jobs for persons. It said:;
A stock argument of employers who do not employ Negro labor is that such labor is unreliable, cannot be depended upon, takes too much time off, with a resultant turnover that makes his employment unwise and an economic hazard.
The fact is that this is true, not of course to the extent that is claimed, but sufficiently, true to prove, section and to offer for really plausible reasons for refusal to employ colored labor. This kind of worker may very well be termed disloyal, and more than that, a traitor. For he fails not only to show appreciation for his employment by the quality and quantity of the service he renders, but—and this is without doubt worse—he makes it much more important others of his race and employment.
This matter of finding persons for jobs has another angle, that of being ready for certain types of employment in which we do not now figure to any appreciable extent. The principle of the diversification of crops, so well known to the modern farm, may be the bright light we field of non-employment for Negroes. In other words, there are too many of us who do the same kind of work, and one need not be an expert, economist to know that a glutton market results both in unemployment and in low wages for those who are employed.
These two matters are being investigated, with the purpose of finding the right kind of people for jobs.
Talking about "Dark Races at the Council Table," as referred to in a campaign booklet designed to stir up opposition to the entering of the United States into the "League of Nations, the Boston Chronicle said:
One of the principal reasons why this country should not enter the League is set forth through the use of an address in the Senate, by former Senator James A. Reed of Missouri in the Senate to the League because the League is dominated by colored races. He quoted from tables to show that 17 countries known as "dark" are members of the League, with a population of 811,000,000 while 15 white counties, with a population of 890,000,000. If we entertained any objections to the United States' entry into the League of Nations Court, Senator Reed's objections here disclosed are certainly not among ours. While the Senator sets forth his reasons clearly his premises are very, very faulty and inaccurate and barbarity is through ignorant and barbaric actions. A nation which statistics shows leads the world in crime and lawlessness, including lynching and moral turpitude, superinduced by religious and racial prejudices, will draw the hate of human beings, and lifts high its skirts to tip-toe through the stink of world dung.
Japanese, Chinese, Negro and semi-Negro nations void of the imperialized urge, gathered around the world to take aargues more safety for humanity at larger than do those white nations steeped in nonsensical race hatred.
Notwithstanding the apparent domination of the League of Nations by colored races, the union is really controlled by Great Britain and its colonies, France and Italy, together with the unofficial Influence of the United States. Senator Reed was invoking a Southern bogie, as usual of his kind.
Pointing to the emergence of the Ku Klux Klan, from appropriate obscurity to take an active part in political maneuvers of late, the Chicago Sunday Bee said:
To those souls that have rested in the security of the thought that the Ku Klux Klan is dead there must be a shocking awakening when they learn that the Klan is still alive, alacry, a verbal cat. it must have at least nine lives. We refer to the northern wing of the Klan.
Recent disclosures reveal the fact that the chief investigator of the senatorial committee investigating funds in the recent senatorial primary in Illinois is alleged to be one William Hunter Baldwin, a chief Klanman. Since the expose of Baldwin's alleged close association with his 'record as a Kegman and of Klan, steps were taken to dismiss him by Senators Wagner and Nye of the senatorial investigating committee.
The south is going to be permitted to send Klan members north to investigate elections, then the north should resist by sending
rice in 1881. Arthur was born in Vermont, but was of Irish extraction. He had been prominent in New York politics before his nomination as Vice President, being allied with the combination headed by Senators Conkling and Platt. His confidential messenger was Alexander Powell, who might have thrown more light on this incident of past history during his lifetime. At all events the name of Elizabeth Jennings Graham should be inscribed in our local Hall of Fame, as the heroine who fought against Jim Crow cars in New York City.
communists and Negroes to investigate senatorial elections in the south. This incident should serve as a warning to American Negroes to support to the limit their own organizations that keep tab on the lines, acts, and attitudes of public men.
The Chicago editor intimates that the mission of this Ku Klux emissary is to get a line on the political activities of Illinois Negroes, so as to work toward their elimination from politics.
Viewing the "Rising Tide of Lynching," which scored thirteen victims during the first half of the current year, the Washington Tribune suggested that President Hoover's crime commission would do well to study this angle of lawlessness. It added:
Several lynchings 'and' a recent wilful murder point to the intensifying and deepening economic crisis that is confronting the race. Of course race prejudice is at the bottom of the whole situation. Lynching is evidence of deep seething animosity to war evade valiant in this, the supposedly most advanced nation in the world in civilization and Christianity.
Cannibalism is no more inhuman un-Christian and beastly than burning a human being alive and singing "Happy Days are Here Again". Reported by the white press, we know that does not record half of the Negroes who were killed and secretly done away with thru the nefarious peonage system which honeycombs the entire Southland. We all remember the Williams farm in Georgia and there are hundreds of where scattered over the country, where Nelson was killed and no report made of them.
In checking up on the reported lynchings we find that only one or two were for assault, or alleged assault. White women have Negro lovers all own the South and are caught up with there is nothing gaid about it. But as soon as an exposo looms up, will cry out assault and rape, when the facts were permitted to be brought out, would reveal carnal knowledge for months and even years.
This view of the situation has been confirmed by the testimony of Southern writers of both races. Lynching is the saddistic pastime of an ignorant and uncivilized people solely in need of missionary efforts.
Referring to the present low ebb of tennis enthusiasm in Norfolk, the Norfolk Journal and Guide said:
Since 1924, one or more tournaments a year have brought to Norfolk from all sections of the country some of the best known followers and players of the game. And Norfolk was lavish in its hospitality. As a result, Norfolk gained fame in far sections of the nation as being that one might call a Meca for ten thousand Pepa began to look forward to the tournaments there. Such popularity has adverisng value.
But now all of that is a thing of the past. The local Tidewater Tennis Club which sponsored tournaments here lost the use of the Goff Street property on which it had constructed three excellent courts. And although it has since obtained permission to play at the old Academy lot, it has so far to revive the interest in the game which began ebbing about two years ago. Members of the Tidewater Club have put forth meritorious efforts to restore Norfolk's enthusiasm, but try as they might, they have succeeded but little. Norfolk, once the toast of lovers of tennis, the favored city on the Seaboard, the most solent, tranquil, and boring—like fireworks which has spent its brilliance.
This lamentable situation should disturb more than the players who, of course, feel most strongly the loss of professional merchants, business and professional citizens have lost something by the passing, of these tournaments from our seaside home. It will be hard to measure, but there is no getting around the truth of it. Nor will lost a valuable asset in the demise of tennis enthusiasm and interest here.
Efforts are urged to revive the sport as a factor in the progress of the city, as golfing and baseball have failed to take its place.
Reviewing the work of the session of Congress, just closed, the Baltimore Afro-American found some measures of vital importance to the Negro, outside of the fight to prevent the confirmation of Judge Parker. It included the revised tariff and the farm relief program among these, saying of the latter:
to stabilize prices of farm products and its objective is, to provide adequate wages for farm workers. For this, Congress is taxing every American citizen. But there can be many a slip between the cup and the lip, and unless there is some distinctive organization, seeing to it, that the money filters all the way down to the Negro wage-scales on Southern farms, here too, there will be no benefit. The reorganization of the federal prison system cured an abuse of Negro labor which has been a stigma on American civilization for some time. The leasing of prisoners to Southern private interests left room for cruelties and exploitation characteristic more of the dark ages than modern times. This measure of the Congress will be of direct benefit. It is too early to predict what President Hoover's law says and enforcement work will do but the lez-
The Week of July 26 Astrologically Considered BY "THEARCHER"
The new birthyear for July 26 will be full of changes and readjustments in the family and domestic circle for every one who was born in July. We need to guard the health and moderation in all things will be really worth while. Honor and success can be attained through worth while effort. New plans are not worth it. New work will July 27 begin a birthyear that will be worth while in many ways, especially where worth while efforts are made. This will not be a year in which to do anything that is not. wished to be known as good or otherwise. The financial aspect is, very good, however, it is best that those plans that are already begun should, be carried out to completion instead of being delayed. The tendency to quarrels and impatience should be watched.
Those who begin another birthyear 'on July 28 will be able to do a great deal that is worth while and time to think well. It will be possible to the honor and reputation through relations with the opposite sex. Those who try to get rich quick will only lose all. This will be a very memorable year, especially in an emotional way, and will come of a beloved friend or relative.
Occupational matters, dealing with the superior in the employment and building up established business will be quite worth while during the year. July 28 will dominate affairs, will require patience and tact. New plans will not turn out well, and will only cause loss in the end. Pushing old plans and building up will be quite worth while. This is very good for years. The first impression will usually be right, and those who change their minds will regret the change.
July 30 will bring a very pleasant year in many ways, and a very good opportunity to gain honor and success in the natural vocation. The tendency to haste and nervousness should be watched.

Wisdom in Race Relations
(Prof Charles H. Moore of Greensboro, N. C., educator and race leader, wrote the following letter to the Greensboro Daily News on "Wisdom. In Race Relations." The importance of his utterances warrants reproduction in The New York Age.)
Editor of The Daily News:
A few years ago while traveling through Georgia, I chanced to read in the Atlanta Constitution 'one morning a communication from the pen of a prominent Georgian, whose name falls me just now, in substance among other things, in his letter, that he saw no reason able objection to granting the Negro a fair chance in the race of life. That one of the main capitals to the real progress of the Soul was an unwarranted fear of Negro he added that, after all of years, the background of inherited training, and thequence his superior advantages, should he be outstretched by the Negro, he would be the last one to complain. Therefore, he would urge all fairminded white men of South not-to put, intentionally, any doubts in the path of the Negro's uplift, and they would be agreeably surprised and benefited by the result.
In consonance with the charitable spirit as manifested in the liberal statement mentioned above, we refall the ringing declaration of the Gov. Charles Brantley Aycock, who has been moved movement for equal educational unity in North Carolina that we hold our title to power - by the tenure of service to God, and if we fail to administer equal and exact justice to the Negro, we shall in the fullness of time lose ourselves for we must know that the God of love, trusts no people with authority, for the purpose of enabling them to do injustice, to the weak.
The above two examples remind me of what took place on the grounds of the capitol at Raleigh a few days ago, when in the shadow of the statue of Charles Brantley Ayeocw, our Governor, Gardner was photographed with a collar on his right and a white boy on his left, two races who had competed for ideals but not the same prizes for the best essays in the statewide "live-at-home" contest, conducted among the more than 800,000 school, children of the state.
It is said that when the picture

litation it may inspire may go into the American shame of lynching. Brought into existence to halt the lawlessness involved in prohibition maladministration, it may have to go deeper and tackle the basic causes of disrespect for law in this country.
Here, there is especially hopeful speculation. For when this more or less scientific body shakes up its test tubes of crime factors, it will be certain to find traces of influence running back to the very first step taken in the South to nullify the U. government. It will find that the only way out will be to enforce all laws in the spirit and to the letter.
Constituting one-tenth of the population of this country, it would be singular if the Negro was not vitally affected by its legislation. The great trouble is to have such legislation equitably applied and enforced.
This aspect inclines those of today to be very abrupt in the speech and actions, and this will cause rather serious misunderstanding hearts and friends, although deep in the hearts of today there is a very kindly and strong feeling for those whom they love. Good judgment will be really worth while. Law suits are not advised.
Those who like to travel, or follow some location that requires them to travel, will have opportunities during the new birthday for July 31. Financial gain will come to nearly every one. It will be necessary to use very good judgment and tact in the employment to avoid offending the supersedes. The year that they begin new enterprises that require the support of the public.
Mental ability, worth while financial gain, honor and 'success' will come during the new birth, which will be August 1, but it would be wise for those of today to stick to old plans instead of beginning new plans. Those who have good judgment will certainly find the 'thinking' a tendency to forget should find it worth while to keep a memorandum of the plan of action. All the people of this work should try to master and that this should be trying, however, this should be analyzed carefully. Those who give with the intention of getting more in return, and those who give nothing, but always take or ask for help, should classify the Service from love brings the greatest gain and honor

gratuitously warned the governor: "If you ever get into politics again this picture may be used against you," to which remind our courtiers or Gardner replied: "If I ever get into politics again, I shall use this picture for me." When Governor Aycock started the hall of education a-rolling over a quarter of the century ago, the death anniversary and prejudice in North Carolina, it was a harbinger of the emancipation of the white people of the state from their fears and prejudice towards the Negro. For some improvement, yet the generous and beneficient fruits of such a movement are today visible and manifest in the white public press, in the goodwill and friendly relations between the two races than in any other state in the South. Furthermore, the economical and industrial status of the Old North State surpasses any other state in the entire South, both of which instances are easily understood by student of sociology and economics.
For no misfortune is more expensive than ignorance; no evil more baleful and destructive than prejudice.
Anathema, therefore, be the person, black white, who would attempt to destroy the harmonious relations between the two races of this state.
To Follow Their Trail
Editor of The New York Age:
Editor of The New York Age:
Black Gold Star mothers and the world at large can now and often be offered a discomfierable offer as comparatively small to what the black soldiers had to suffer "over there." They fought and died to make the world safe for democracy "and at the same time were openly discriminated against." to Black Gold Star mothers, my likewise suffer and accept the injustice of jim-crowstering and prejudice of their slave sons, our Flanders. They were poppy growers.
These Negro mothers will no doubt accept this insult with heavy hearts just to be able to kneel and say a praver at the grave of the love one who went over but never returned.
The American Government alone to be thanked for this unpatriotic event and the excuse office will lay a joke. In the hands of the Brave and the Land of the Free such things should not be.

The morning server, the speaker was Rev. Daniel Lewis, whose talk was very inspiring and impressive. The Sunday school, under E. C. Holman, superintendent, assisted by his teachers, served dinner all through the afternoon. In the evening, Douglas praached to the Missionary Society. The choir is showing signs of taking on new life, and bids fair
to be in full force and effect by the opening of the fall season. This being vacation season, most of Rush folks are now rushing either to the mountains, or seashore, so as to be physically fit to tackle the problems that confront them next fall.

Wherefore they arose and fled in the twilight, and left their tents, and their horses, and their asses, even the camp as it was and fled for their life.
He hirsited 'Miracles.' He emphasized the fact that God does interfere with the affairs of mankind, and--that the real definition of miracle is that which occurs in the external world. He spoke-of how God-changes, people's hearts in mind, how people die when God's withdraws His hand from them. He said we have the spirit of truth in our hearts when we are converted and do; not have to go elsewhere to obtain the Holy Spirit. We take the of the effectiveness of prayer.
At 330 o'clock there was an interesting musical program rendered by Miss Gladys L. Freeman, White Rose Singers and Male Choir of the Church Mr. Wright from Truth Church School; Miss Calma, who made beautiful music on a saw. There were solos also. This delightful program was under auspices of the Girls Culture Club. A presentation of $7 was given to the Bible and the proceeds of the pew rally. The B. Y. P. U. had an interesting program.
At the evening service, the assistant pastor preached from 1st Samuel 27th chapter, 1st verses and then preached from 1st Samuel 28th chapter, 1st verses. He shall now perish one day by the hand of Saul; there is nothing better for me than I should speedily escape into the land-of the Philippines; and shall despair of me, to be saved, by the heart of Israel. To seek me 'any more in any coast of Israel: so shall I escape out of his hand." Subject: "Atheistic Reason." The theme was concerning the attitude to eschatology and the attitude to that attitude, and an appeal was made to the people to return to the church.
Eleven people joined the church during day one. Thursday, July 24, will be the date for the outing of the church to Long Branch.
REFUGE CH. OF CHRIST
The weekly missionary service on Monday, July 14, was held in the church, chapel, as the main auditorium was undergoing re-organization of the church mother's a science and much appreciated talk. Services were resumed in the auditorium on Tuesday evening, when Elder C. L. Edwards, venerable evangelist, returned some days ago from Atlantic City, where he had been conducting services on Young, state elder of New Jersey, proclaimed an unusual manner. He was given a cordial welcome on his return.
Wednesday, July 16, Junior Church services were held in the main auditorium. Miss Geneva, one of the junior missionaries, led the song, prayer and testimony meeting, assisted by Ernest H. Steiner, pastor of the church chorus The assistant pastor, Leon D. B. Seely, preached from Paul's Epistle to the Romans, 8th chapter. Miss Claudia Nowell, who is much associated with the young people, sang a solo subsequent to the sermon. R. C. Lawson, accompanied by the senior chair, officers and members of the church, visited St. Mark's M. E. Church, Rev. J. W. Robinson, pastor; on July 17, They were given a cordial welcome, and the pulpit was turned over to Bishop Lawson by Pastor Robinson. The sermon text was written by the man have not the Spirit of Christ he is none of His" The message was instructive and spiritual.
Bishop Lawson said that God did not create the world and leave it to be cared for by nature, but that God made man and put him at the head of creation. God was the first Missionary to bring man back to man, said the minister, to man, said the priest, to withdraw himself from the Holy Presence of God, the eternal Being. As time elapsed into history, Israel was without a prophet for more than 400 years.
Jeremiah prophesied His return; Jesus came to deliver man (Acts 2:38). Jesus came to deliver, liberate man from death and set him free. He made a strong appeal to him to be obtained by accepting 'the Gospel of Christ; and let Him fill us with His Holy Spirit. The service in general was impressive from beginning to end. Collection was $47.27. Prayer was offered by Father Edwards, and prayed throughout the entire year is dedicated to fasting and praying on part of church officers. On these Friday nights divine healing meetings take place. People have actually been healed and have gone out and told of it. The sermons preached by our pastor are consequently our church continues to grow. Truly, the Lord is stirring up the hearts of the people.
Saturday night services from 12 midnight to 6 a.m. Services opened Sunday morning by ministering deacons. The weather was wonderful and people flocked to the Refuge Church of Cristo's Bishop Lawson spoke from Galatians 2:5, telling of Paul, and why he went to Jerusalem, to whom we gave place by subjection, not for an

FLEET ST. MEM. CHURCH
In spite of the torrid weather still permeating this section on Sunday, the auditorium of Fleet Street Church was well crowded at the regular services for the day. 10 a.m. a.m. The pastor, Rev. W. C.

He is grand master of the exchequer for that body.
CONCORD BAP. CHURCH
Speaking of question of discussion of religion by various types of people, he said: "A person has no more right to discuss religion who has had no experience with God, than has the youth of today who was born during prohibition relative to its status of street corner saloons and free liquor as over against prohibition. Neither one has had any definite experience and hence can know only from hearsaay, which is unreliable at times."
In the evening he mentioned that each generation will develop better experiences that the series of experiences that God has passed it through. But there are some abiding principles given early in man's history which persist as fundamentals, serving all ages to eternity's end.
At the close of the evening service, Rev. Mr. Adams went to the Nazaren Congregational fellowship with Rev. Mr. Proctor, the church anniversary services.
During the past week, the total enrollment of the Church Vacation School reached the 104 mark with a rather low average attendance of 62 students far larger to the fact that many of those children registering for the first two weeks have gone away to camp. Through the gifts of Mrs. John T. Brown and others, milk is being served daily to the milk lots in the Beginners' Department.
NAZARENNE CONG. CH.
The 57th anniversary of the Nazarene Congregational Church was celebrated Sunday with notable exercises.
At the morning hour the Rev. George N. Simons gave an inspiring sermon on "The Golden Rule in International" and Racial Relations. He first taught his class to clean house before it criticised conditions in the old world. Then he held that Communism as he had seen it in action in Russia offered nothing of relief to the American Negro. He held that Communism was of making themselves worthy of the best things in American citizenship, and he urged the nation to give its colored citizens all their rights and privileges irrespective of their race. Among the visitors at the morning hour were J. E. Conner, formerly U. S. Minister to Russia, a fellow graduate of Dr. Proctor at Yale; Mice Emma Lima, formerly a missionary to Russia; George George Ga, Major Perryman of Atlanta, Ga.
The following letter was received from former President Calvin Coolidge: "My dear Dr. Procter: Please accept for the memorial of my father for yourself my congratulations on the fifty-seven anniversary of your church which is to be celebrated this Sunday, July 20th. I wish for your community, many more celebrations and honors, an increased growth in size and influence. Very truly yours, (Signed) Calvin Coolidge." At the evening hour there was a union service with addresses by Charles Winter, Lord on Rev. J. B Adams, Concord Baptist Church Rev. S. T. Timms, Unity Institutional Church; Rev. G. W. Hinton, Corona Congregational Church; Rev. James Garner, A. M. E. Wintimer. The choir was assisted by Miss Wintimer Gordon, soprano.
Dr Proctor will fill his pulpit at both services next Sunday, which will be his last message and the morning he will speak on "The Interplay of the Divine and Human Elements in a Great Adventure," and at the evening time his theme "and at the evening time his theme." Forever: "Mrs. Mabie Diggs Bergen will be the soloist at the morning hour."
SILOAM PRES CHURCH
The morning hour of worship at Siloam Dr. George Shippen Stark, pastor, the subject of the discourse was found in Psalms 78:11. The pastor in his usual and forceful manner, strikingly brought out that our conception of God is vital, that the power of the Holy Spirit is wonderful in the world. If our conception is small then everything is small. Our prayers go up to God at night but how often do we pray in the morning for that same leading as we deceive the night by the time of greatest temptation, danger. It was shown that no man can be busy here and there, Man can-

THE material contrast between the 'structures with which (Booker T. Washington) began and the present great, ample and common-law one plant is autotactically strong to be enough for one man to bring about. But satisfactory and encouraging as this is, it but an (perfect) measure of Dr. Washington's work and achievement. The education and annual turning out of two or three hundred young men and women for lives useful to themselves and their families is of course a more commendable and balpful work, but that was only one part of what he did and sought to do. His purpose was to radiate from a center like Tusquega de la Hogue to the base of the ever-living structure which must form the basis of real advance for his race, or any race—William Howard Taft, Chief Justice United States Supreme Court.

not serve God and mammon at the same time. Man may know muhce he but does not know all. The Bible is in itself, not a book of one's library, but the guide and example for all life and living. Just as a soldier, when he finds much of his pack too burdensome and must throw some away, finds that he carrying his away, finds that he carrying his bread and water. The Christ is this to us, these are the things of the Divino Spirit. The seat of whether a man is christian is not so, when all is going well, everything prosperous, but when he is insulted or made angry, if, as Christ, he will bear these insults and for religion to get way down into our hearts, but Jesus knows and will give us credit, for the little we have.
All is readiness for the excursion on this Thursday to Forest View. Grove up the Hudson. Dale up the school is reaching up to all children of the community. The attendance is good each session, and classes from the kindergarten age to the junior boy and girl are well filled, and competent teachers giving in-depth knowledge and recreational that is healthful. Although this is the summer season and much of the activity of the church is lessened, many of the organizations of the church are still active, so that when the fall season opens they can begin immediately to carry out these programs. Mrs. G. M. Styles is among the sick of the membership. She is a keen Brooklyn Hyde, a hearty welcomer, is extended Benjamin F. S. Keele, member and radio operator at sea.
BRIDGE ST CHURCH
The pastor, Dr. Edward Ernest Tyler, filled the pulpit at the morning hour. He delivered a soul-stirring sermon to a large and enthusiastic congregation. His text was St. Mark 16:15. Dr. Tyler asserted that the religion of Jesus Christ is different from all others in that it respects the personality. We, of today must not let the world believe that the church is ethically impotent, but must be so organized in this machine age that we will take care of the church as we will impress the world. We must endeavor to meet the new phase of thought of the world in regards to Christianity. Dr. Tyler closed with a plea that all Christians spread the gospel to all the people with the fact that, Christ is risen. For it is a gospel of hope, goodwill and triumph. One person joined the church when the invitation was extended. In evening, the Allen League men met in Jesseville. There was a large attendance, and much interest was shown.
The Rev. E. E. Johnson preached at the evening services, Dr. Johnson-is a new member of the New York Annual Conference. He delivered very spiritual sermon and impressed on the congregation, impression on the congregation. After the sermon the officers of the Allen League and Ruth Mite

Reforming the Aldermen
(The New York World)
The Kings County Republican Ad-
visory Committee has a bright idea
for the reorganization of the Board
of Aldermen. The Aldermanic branch
of the Municipal Assembly at present
consists of sixxyte members, re-
ceiving salaries of $5,000 each, and
the five Borough Presidents, sitting
in the Council. The O. Q. committee
would reduce the number to twenty-
three, one for each State Senate distri-
ct in the city.
Except that it would be an annual saying of $210,000, which is no great matter in New York's many-million-dollar budget, we do not see that much would be gained by the change, while something would perhaps be lost; it would not be possible for the individual Alderman to passages the intimate knowledge of his district which now he is supposed to have. At the Alderman's district contains 108,000 people. Under the proposed arrangement it would have 324,000 inhabitants and be a small city in itself.
The Board of Aldermen needs more prestige. This can be sought by electing members of ability, with less regard to party labels, and by the members themselves, when elected, refusing to play any longer the thankless role of a mere echo of the Board of Estimate.
Another Negro School Provided In Atlanta
Atlanta, Ga.-By unanimous vote of the City Board of Education, the valuable Walker street school property has been designated for use hereafter as a Negro school, a step of great importance which will go far to relieve the present congestion in nearby colored schools. The plant is modern, commodious and in good repair and will provide for many hundreds of pupils.
4-H Clubs Hold Short Course at St. Augustine
*Raleigh, N. C.—More than 200 boys and girls were in attendance at the recent short course of the North Carolina 4-H Clubs. The meeting was held at St. Augustine's College as a fire early in the spring had destroyed many of the facilities at the A. C. College. The boys and girls represented 20 counties in the State. They heard addresses by Mrs. Jane McKimmon, assistant director, Division of Extension Service; L. A. Oxley, State Welfare Director; H. L. Trigge, State High School Inspector, and others. They were entertained with sightseeing at Splinter Park. Mrs. D. F., Lower State—Homa Demonstration Worker; C. R. Hudson, Stage Farm Agent, and J. W. Mitchell, Digitight Agent, were in charge, assisted by Mrs. C. S. Wilson, Mrs. B. M. Edwards, Miss W. A. Barker, Books, B. Harrison L. H. Roberts, D. W. Jeffries, C. J. Hubbard, D. D. Durree, C. S. Mitchell and E. C. Lackey.

Saturday evening, July 19th.
Miss Aoola Miller, soprano, members of the music staff of Tuskegee Institute appeared in a jigs recital at the Florida A. and M. College, Saturday evening, July 19th.
The remarkable and unusual training of both performers was reflected in the range and the diversity of the numbers they presented. Drawing liberally upon the masters music of both institutions, she offered the approval of a most appreciative appraisal of the 'outstanding musical contributions of Chopin, Schumann, Handel, Gotschalk, Puckini, Coleridge-Taylor, Pardesiewski, Lissat, Burleigh and many others. The most difficult scores were played or sung with a fluency and accuracy that went for both artists, the admiration of the summer school audience. Ms. Pitman, daughter of the late Booker T. Washington, and one-time pupil of a student of Lizzt, played Lizzt, 'Rhaghody, No. 12', with such vivacity and feeling that any music lover could have realized her familiarity and probable partiality for this artist, Lizzt, breathing into her interpretations. In addition, she revealed her emotional sincerity and intense love for her art. The audience could and refrain, from acknowledging its response to her singing of the Spirituals.
It will be remembered that 'Mrs. Pittman has an experienced concert artist, having spent approximately four years on the concert stage after having "studied" under various masters in America and Europe, being particularly fortunate in having been a student of one of Lissit's progeses. Mrs. Pittman acquired national recognition last year as Director of the chorus of 500 voices that gave a program for the National Educational Association when it met in Dallas, Texas, in which city she directed the music of the public schools for six years. Miss Anola Miller, even though she has just re-entered the profession, has already caused quite a "girl" in musical circles and was awarded the Juilliard Scholarship in Music upon the completion of her work at Howard. As soloist and Director of the Choir and Quartet at Tuskegee she promises to be heard from in a larger sphere in a very few years.
This recital was a part of the regular concert and lecture series, one of the regular and attractive courses of the Florida A. M. Colleges. Summer 523 is which an enrollment of $23 is enjoying its greatest session—

NORTH CAROLINA DEMONSTRATES JUSTICE, AMITY Governor Visits "Death Row," Saves Man From Doom; Girl Gets Cup
Raleigh, N. C., As a partial offset to, the depressing story of, interracial conflict that came this week out of Emelle, Alabama, it is gratifying to record two incidents that have just taken place here, in which interracial friendship and the desire for equal justice, and opportunity are strikingly illustrated.
One was the commutation of Governor Max Gardner of the death sentence that for two years was hung over, Wurit McLeod, Lee County, Negro, because of doubt of his guilt; the other was the public presentation by the Governor of silver, loving cup to Ophelia Holley, colored high school student, from Bertie County, as one of the first colored high school student from Bertie County, as one of the first prizes, in a state-wide "Live-at Home" essay contest.
Both incidents, as it happened, were prominently featured the same day on the front page of the News and Observer, leading daily paper of the city.
Commutes Death Sentence
The case of McLeod, who two years ago was convicted of assault and murder and sentenced to die, has been retired by the Superior Court and twice reviewed by the State Supreme Court, which upheld the second "conviction. Still doubtful of McLeod's guilt, however, Lieutenant A. L. Oxley, of the State Board of Public Welfare, investigated the case and recommended clemency. . . . Perplexed about the matter, Governor Gardner visited "Degath Row" in person and for more than an hour worked with McLeod, who was ignorant of his identity. Deciding that there was too much doubt of guilt, to "let the prisoner die, the Governor committed the sentence to life imprisonment. Investigation of the case will be continued, it is announced, in the hope of reaching certainty as to McLeod's guilt or innocence."
Presented Loving Cup
The 'presentation' of the losing cup came as the culmination of an educational campaign in which more than a thousand essays were written by high school students on the need of learning to "Live at Home" by more efficient productive methods. Two identical silver cups, very large and, handsome, were presented by the Governor to the two first prize winners, a white boy and a colored girl. The presentation took place in th' House of Representatives, which was crowded with an interracial audience and the exercises were broadcast by radio. The News and Observer carried on the front page a picture of the winners, holding their cups and standing on either side of the Governor. Forty additional prizes were presented by white and colored speakers.
'Atlantic City, N. J'—Mrs Sara S. Washington, founder and president of the Apex Hair Co, and the Apex Success, Co of Atlantic City, Philadelphia and New York, was tendered a testimonial banquet by the workers in the organization at Fitzgerald's Auditorium. Covers were laid for 250, and Mrs. Clarice Walker, national organizer, was teammaster. The speakers were Attorney Raymond Pace Alexander of Philadelphia; Eugene K. Jones, National Urban League; New York City; George of Atlantic City; Dr. John Marquess of Philadelphia; Dr. Viola Hinkson of New York; and others Mrs Washington responded.
Staff members presented the guest of honor with gold embossed tea set.
Dr. E. A. Abbott Named To British Society
New Orleans, La.—The Rev. Dr. E. A. Abbott, pastor of the A'M E. E. Zion Church, here, has been notified of his election as a life member of the British Society for the Propagation of Christian faith, advancement of monasticity, devotion and prose, and general literature, the Corporation of the Church House. He is a native of New York, former pastor at Rush Memorial A M. E. Zion Church.
Judge Fines Man, Then Performs Marriage Rite
Yaphank, L. I — A summons issued to John O. Huntz, colored, of Amstyssen, for passing, a red light on the Middle "Country" Road at Goubout last weekend led to a ground hitter" in the form of a marriage license, being issued to him this weekend by the same judge who finished him $2 for passing the light. Hunter explained to Justice F. P. Marchant that he liked him so well when he fined him $2 that he had decided to get married right way and have him perform the ceremony.
Greensboro, N. C.—Work is progressing rapidly on the new administration building at A. & T. College. Contractors are putting forth every effort to complete the building by early fall.

Gold Star Mothers. I am a soldier, black, and proud of it. I was hurt at the way the trip had been arranged, still I was not surprised because I toil each day, not only for my daily bread, but that my people may get what is their's. Men hold race pride so lightly, that it hurts me far more than anything else, because I know that is one of the main causes of our being shouldered to the rear at all times."
Timely. To The Point
From Julius A. Thomas, 137 West 123rd street: "Your remarks at the reception that was tendered the Gold Star Mothers of our group was timely and to the point. In addition to reading it in the Herald Tribune. I have heard many favorable comments on what you had to say. On occasions of this kind we should seize the opportunity to let our white fellow citizens know how they use their power to embarrass us. On such an occasion we should be unanimous in our declaration of protest."
From Mrs. Sadle Warren-Davis, owner of The Amsterdam News, who telephoned her congratulations was the best speech ever heard and the best she said. Arthur A. Schomburg, bibliophile of 105 Kosciusko street, Brooklyn, said "I cannot let the opportunity go by without expressing my high regards for the stand taken in the matter of the Gold Star Mothers. More power to you."

Katy Ferguson Home for Unmarried Mothers Appeals for Funds To Carry On Its Work
The Katy Ferguson Home for, Unmarried Mothers is rendering an invaluable service to the community-through its work in giving the unmarried mother a brighter outlook on life and an opportunity to become an asset rather than a liability.
The Home is in need of assistance in carrying forward its work during the summer months. It has but a small income, its principal dependence being upon freewill contributions from the public. Last year, its total income was $7,311.31, with disbursements totalling $9,800.26.
Seventy-five girls and 62 babies were cared for during 1929; the average age of the girls was 18, the youngest being 11; employment is found for the girls, with their babies. Volunteer workers give instruction in hygiene, care of babies, sewing, handicraft.
Contributions of money and food are urgently needed. An appeal is made to the public for help for this worthy work.
Send food or money to the Home, 162 West 130th street; or, send money to Alderman Fred R. Moore, The New York Age, 230 West 135th street.
Our Gold Star Mothers and Our "Brassy" Government: Fred R. Moore of The Age Makes Great Speech
Our Gold Star Mothers and Our "Brassy" Government: Fred R. Moore of The Age Makes Great Speech
By William Pickens
Mr. Hoover and our War Department haev certainly exhibited some "brass" in the treatment of the mothers and widows of the Negro soldiers who died in Europe "to make the world safe for democracy" During this whole affair, in our capacity as contributing editor of the Associated Negro Press, we have not said one word on the subject. You had used the words "these wanted to use" and "more are outside of all the dictionaries," it would have made Hoover and his War Department crowd, happy—for then they would have been able to put us in
The second reason is that I did not want to say or do anything to make it harder for the Negro Gold Star Mothers and Widows. I did not want to add to the unusually pathetic situation in which they found themselves the dilemma of either tolerating the gratuitous, excuseless and brutal insults of a great government, or of refusing perhaps the last chance ever to visit the graves of their beloved soldiers who more than half a score years died in a foreign country in defense of the power of this same insulting government.
Some of them, I knew, might refuse to accept the insult on their own choice; for some of them are able to go independent of government aid and at some other time. These I could aplaud, but I could not have the heart to do or say anything that would in the least imply that those who should go would be acting in any way dishonorable or would be betraying their race in any particular. The only dishonor attaches to the officials of our government, including President: Hoover who by act or failure to act, have taken advantage of the love and helplessness of these mothers and Widows. The only betrayal is this brass-masked betrayal of the enthusiasm, loyalty and hopes of the black men who died in France twelve years ago—to make the United States safe for the Democrats.
My words were held back when I thought of some of these women who were coming out of the cane brakes of Louisiana and the pine woods of Georgia, who perhaps never in all their lives would get across the Mason and Dixon Line but for this one opportunity. I had to ask them to give up what I could not be required to give up myself because I was not in their situation if I had been a Gold Star Mother.
I could have said "I am not going," and then with good grace I would have held my example up to the others. But knowing the South as I know it, I felt sure that if I had been living for the last fifty years where many of those women were living, I would come out of it. If I had a chance to come on a freight train and a cattle boat.
Today I have admiration for those who snapped their fingers as Herbert Hoover and his crowd. For those who went, I have understanding sympathy and unabashed respect. But now they are gone, and there is a clear field between us and Mr. Hoover's War Department. We can now shoot straight, without danger of striking the innocent heads of these devoted women.
The most cowardly of all cowardice is imposition upon the weak. Less than sixty Negro women have gone to France to visit the graves of their dead. They were segregated from the white women who had also gone on the same mission—many of the white women being as impertant and as poor as the most ignorant and the poorest class of colored women, and some of the colored women eligible to go are as intelligent and cultured as any white woman who was. Segregation of the weaker, and smaller element is therefore an inault.
Mr Hoover's War Department has had the nerve to inform the public that the hotels and the passenger lines "refused" to carry the government's passenger. Just think of it. The poor little old United States was turned down by a hotel and a ship, although those hotels and ships have not the right and would not risk the temeraion, of turn in down many individual citizens of the United States. We always thought that the government would protect its citizens against such discrimination, but if the government cannot protect itself against such discrimination, then the government is not worth a tourist's damn. It cannot get personal if it doesn't stand defense in the house of cooling, the strong always under-estimates the intelligence of the war. But to first build the weak in their helplessness and then on top of that to stoke your tongue in your cheek and say things that imply that the weak are esteemed to be damned fools also—that is a little too much.
There is not a ship line coming into an American port that would dare to be the subject of the United States Government's a ship line, could send a boat in or

Falling Hair
Almost every one is troubled
with falling hair at some time or
other. Sometimes it comes as a
result of a long, severe illness
Often an infection picked up by
the scalp is the cause.
But the most common form of alopecia (loss of hair) is that which middle age inflicts on many men and some women. Usually the trouble has started some ten or fifteen years before, when, for some reason, the scalp has had its source of nourishment shut off, or has become infected with dandruff germs. During all that time the hair follicles have been bravely struggling for life, but at last the fight is too much and, worn out, they give it up.
Alphecia of this kind comes gradually. New hairs, pushing the old ones out of the follicles, keep diminishing in size until they are as fine as down The shrinkage continues until finally no new hair appears. Under such conditions, partial or total baldness is the result.
But the case of the middle age is not always so hopeless. Falling hair, when men and women reheat middle or late forties, is frequently only the symptom of lessened physical well-being, the will improve, the general health under a doctor's guidance, they undoubtedly improve the condition of their hair, as well. At the same time they should help tone up the scalp locally by using a good shampoo and daily massage.
The type of alopecia which appears after exhausting illness like typhoid, influenza, or after a serious operation is also susceptible of cure. Usually the hair stops coming out as the patients health is built up by rest, fresh air and proper nourishment. Here again, regular gentle shampoos will be very beneficial, for the tissues of the scalp, like those of other parts of the body, have fallen below par and need the bracing that only thorough cleansing and daily exercise can give them. In cases of this sort, always massage gently so that the already weakened hairs will not be bulled out:
A third, and more unusual type of falling hair, is known as alopecia.

Courage and consistency are the Negro's great opportunity. We trust that, the White House was listening in.

A certain race paper prefaces its society column with the thought that the careful host or hostess excludes from social functions persons of disreputable character, material and those possessed of ill-gotten gains.
```markdown
```
This is really splendid advice, but I am merely philosophizing and saying, "Just try and do it." The difficulty of carrying out this policy and maintaining an ultra exclusive society in our race group is three-fold.
First: Negro society differs vastly from the society of other race groups in that it is in its infancy, and, consequently has not the background of wealth accomplishment and heredity of the Anglo-Saxon. Then it seems ludicrous that the menial class of the other race is almost altogether dependent upon the aristocracy in an economic way, while our self-styled members of society are "buried-out" without the menials.
Second: To exclude menials, which in its general accepted usage, means servants, would entirely eliminate all of us because there is no race as obviously conceded to be altogether in that class as ours. So, as to menials, "Aren't we all?" I don't know how I should surmise really, if I felt that I could never hope to be a member of society. It means so much phonetics in many causes.
Third. Many of the outstanding members of Harlem society are possessed of ill-gotten gains. There is that great aggregation of "numbers" racketeers, "bankers," and runners, and the like, together with bootleggers, and destroyers of virtue and happiness, hobnobbing with the elite. Who dares to exclude them and clean up society? But it is of small import after all. Who cares a snap about society, it his life is filled with accomplishments for good? He in a society so small no mortal dare enter unless he measures up. That and that only is the society which will automatically exclude all undesirables and carry those who are really doing something—not talking about rigor attempting to impress others with their importance.

take a boat out or New York harbor without the express permission of the government.
And there are hotels in New York City where Negroes stay on their own request. Certainly they could stay in such hotels on request of President Hoover.
We are not going to ask Mr. Hoover and the War Department to "tell us another," but we are going to pounce right here and "tell them one." It may have been that the hotel or the ship company were reluctant, but it was not a case of flat retusal of a government request, it was an occasion where the government crowd and the private agents met, and "all of us being were folks together in our now they decided to go to the question "What shall we do with these colored folks?" The private crowd, of course, had its prejudices and its provincial American limitations, and the government agents betrayed the Negroes—as usual.
But the City of New York was greater than the United States; it entertained these Negro mothers without the shadow of color. Many white mothers gave the lie to prejudice, by turning out with these black mothers. The Mayor, the Acting Mayor and the Commissioners of New York honored them. The Negro Aldermer.

I use the term "encouragingly" because it was just that, as this is a new 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 WOMAN'S WORDS

pecia areata. In this the patient's hair comes out in patches, leaving the bald spots about the size of a quarter or half dollar. Young persons are usually the sufferers. Either a local nerve disturbance or a parasitic germ like ringworm, or a focal infection, causes this curious disease. When this type of alopecia is present, I would suggest only the treatment of a dermatologist or physician.
Temperament
ELIZABETH N. HAVER
The sea is a shrew, who is never tame;
A woman of countless moods;
She laughs, and she pouts, and she tosses her head.
And sometimes, for hours she broods.
She pensively studies the colorful sky.
She kisses her fingers in fun.
She dallies away a good part of the day.
Reflecting the rays of the sun.
At night when the moon is all silver and white.
She holds up her lips to be kissed.
Till sensing a charge in the jealous old Wind,
She buries her head in a mist.
Then suddenly angry, she shrinks forth her rage.
And dares him to order her ways
The wind howls defiance and bitter revenge.
And they battle for numberless days.
The sobbing repentance with tender cares.
She julls him to quiet again.
And whispers low crooning and whispers of love.
Like the dripping of rain in a glen.
BLEASE REBUKED BY PROMINENT CAROLINA WOMAN She Repudiates Lynching and Resents Use of White Primary
Charleston, S. C.—Cole Blease's recent defense of lynching as a "protection of womanhood" was vigorously rebuked here, by Mrs. C. P. McGowan, chairman of the South Carolina Committee on Race Relations, and one of Charleston's most distinguished women, who in a public he statement called attention to the fact that groups of prominent white women in every Southern state have condemned lynching. McGowan's statement was as follows:
"Hundreds of thousands of white women of the South feel that the law, as represented by sheriffs, juries and judges, is their honorable and reliable protection and avenger.
"Through church affiliation with the great religious organizations and the membership of these organizations in the Commission on Race Relations in the South, women have irredibly pudiated the use of the name of the white women of the South as a cloak for mob violence.
"They state that they stand for legal protection for women and lawful execution of those convicted of crime, be it that it will. The womens' South are not afraid to stand by the Cognition of the United States."

Dean Dwight O. W. Holmes, who acted as president of the university during the absence of Dr. Johnson, presided at the luncheon and presented Dean Kelly Miller to express to the president the sentiment of his official family. In responding, President Johnson stated that during his absence the mind was relaxed concerning the affection of the university because of his confidence in the ability of those whom he had left in positions of trust and responsibility.

JERSEY PASTOR PROTESTS SLURS IN BOOK REVIEW Excepts to Words Used In Hughes' Review of Book On Paul Robeson
Westfield, N. J.-The Rev. E. A. Carroll, pastor of St. Luke's A. M. E. Zion Church, located here, which church was built by the Rev. Wm. D. Robeson, father of Paul Robeson, the singer and actor, has taken exceptions to certain statements concerning the church and its congregation made in a review written by the young Negro poet, Langston Hughes, of the recently published book, "Paul Robeson, Negro," the author of which is Eslanda Goode Robeson Paul's wife.
In a letter of protest sent to the editor of 'The New York Age the Rev, Mr. Carroll wrote as follows: "After reading the review by Langston Hughes on the book, "Paul Robeson: Negro," by Elisanda Goode Robeson, which was published in the New York Herald Tribune, June 29, 1930, I am forced to write the following. I am pastoring for the fifth year the church in Westfield; name the St, Luke's A. M. E. Zion Church, on the corner of Orsborn avenue and Bowner street which the late Rev. Wm. D. Robeson, father of Paul Robeson, built, and which was so prominently spoken of in the review mentioned above.
. People are Intelligent
"At this church we have a group of very intelligent people, in moderate circumstances; three-fourths of the members own their homes, with all improvements and cars, and send their boys and girls to college. I say this because to my mind the resuew would give any one the impression that they were paupers. As St. Paul has made strides, the members of this church have also been making strides. "It's true that the church made cups and servants, but they also constitute the majority of the membership of the race churches today throughout the country.
"Our reading is not confined to the Negro weeklies as hinted in the review, which has been evidenced by our people since this review was published. The concensus of opinion is that Mr. Hüches wrote this review for the white press to be read by the white race. We as a race are very quick critters. The man says or does to us, it would pay us if we would be mode careful of the things we say about ourselves."

AMONG PULLMAN EMPLOYEES
THINGS SEEN, HEARD AND DONE AMONG PULLMAN EMPLOYEES
By JAMES H. HOGANS
DIFFICULT TO BE
To those who have known Sam Freeman will be difficult for them to credit him with his ment recently charged to him. The Pullman was accused, according to reports, of having sent writers of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Port Company would operate its 'company union' a in the elections, to be 'held in November port would be fired.'
DIFFICULT TO BELIEVE
DIFFICULT TO BELIEVE
To those who have known Sam Freeman through the years, it will be difficult for them to credit him with having made the statement recently charged to him. The Pullman welfare worker has been accused, according to reports, of having sent word to the headquarters of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters that "the Pullman Company would operate its 'company union' as heretofore, and that in the elections to be held in November porters refusing to vote would be fired."
Without any intention here of fore, the annual event was advert-defending the welfare-man, or of lised as a sort of free-for-all affrechtung the charges with fair. This year it will be different, while the charges in all fairness, according to the plans of the com- to him, there are certain facts that mittee of arrangements, are worth considering in connection "In-past years," said a member with the allegation.
In the first place, that any Pullman representative of subordinate position would be guilty of such a breach in traditional silence regarding a matter which is strictly a managerial problem is almost inconceivable. So much so that it reminds those who are familiar with the tradition of the story of the lady whose dog was detected in a compromising position. She "had never known her dog to do such a thing before." In the next place what bearing would such a statement from a welfare worker have on the case? Where lies the importance of what he has to say in the matter. In the third place, it is pretty generally understood that, the Pullman Company does not delegate the position of spokesman—in public affairs, to any of its welfare workers. In the fourth place none but a fool would take San Freeman for one. Therefore, those who really know the man will find it difficult to believe that he sent any such message.
But whether the welfare man is guilty or not, there is one further observation that might be made here. There is no need for the Pullman porter to set all alarms about the Court's decision of the same Court regarding Company unions," no matter what is said and who says it.
TO CARRY ON AT DEXTER
PARK
Two decided changes are to be made in the program of the athletic meet and picnic arrangements of the Pullman porters of New York and environs for this year. The first of these is that the affair will be held at Dexter Park, Brooklyn; instead of Pelham Bay Park, The Bronx, the site for the past eleven years. The second change is that admission to the Brooklyn playground will be by cards. Hereto will be included in the test. Watch for further information.
Federal examinations — clerk-carrier test to be held in August—Applications not being issued as yet. Age 18 to 45. Salary $1,700 to $2,100. Subjects—General paper, sorting and following instructions. Assistant director of social work $2,000 to $1,100 a year, junior director of social work $2,000 to $2,500 a year, and apprentice. Printing Office.

Again a large number of certifications were made in the three civil service commissions. Some of them follow. 100 clerks and carriers were appointed in the New York Post Office. 150 laborers appointed through the boroughs. 15 female attendants, Dent. of Parks at $5 a day; 6 dentists at $1,200 a year; part time service; 12 architectural draftsmen grade 4, at $2,700 a year; 24 sten-tips, grade 2, at $1,200 a year; 10 type-copiers at $1,080 a year and many others.

fore, the annual event was advertised as a sort of free-for-all affair. This year it will be different, according to the plans of the committee of arrangements.
"In-past years," said a member of this body, when asked the reasons for the change in parks, "there were as many outsiders at or picnics as there were members of Fortunately we are possible for that situation, for we made everyone one welcome. But this year we want only the members of our group, their families and other Pullman employees. This could not be obtained at Pelham Bay Park.
"Then again," he continued, "Dexter Park has better facilities for staging a ball game, which is always one of the main features of our meet. It also has a dancing, by us. We all he used exclusively by us. In fact, we simply wanted a change.
The dual affair, which will be held on Thursday, August 7, is advertised around Pullman quarters as an "old-fashioned basket picnic and field day." Aside from the baseball setto between the Mott Haven Yards team and the Sunnyside Yards team, which is expected to be a corker this year, the usual foot races for the W.C. Taylor's trophies, band concerts, dancing and other entertainments will be some of the features of the day.
In addition to those features, ice cream, cake and milk will be served free. But the more substantial food, will be carried by individual members, in the old fashioned basket picnic way. Dexter Park is located at 74-11 Jamaica avenue, Brooklyn. Buses to the park will be furnished by the arrangement committee. Where these will start from has not been decided upon as this goes to press, but the information will be contained in circulars, which will be given out the latter part of this week, so it is said.
GIVEN KEY TO CITY
The following letter has been received by this column from Seattle, Wash., and, it might be mentioned, by air mail:
"The Pullman crew that left New York City on Monday, June 30, on a special train with the Garden Club of America, were given the key to the City of Seattle on their arrival here, Sunday, July 6.
"We had one week's stay in the city, and we were royally entertained every waking minute of that time. First, Mrs Barney Johnston, a well known resident, was our hostess to a camp breakfast, served at Madrona Beach in true-Western style.
"The next day, Mrs Harry Duval, another of Seattle's social lights, gave a card party and Dutch supper for us as a hotel Dunbar. On our last night here, a supper was given in our room by the owner of the Dunbar. You see, it has been one whirl of pleasure for us."
"We will, return to the big city on or about July 22, with a warm spot in our hearts for Western hospitality. The members of our crew are: Sam Brown, Glasco Davis, Joseph Spaights, Moses Williams, G. K Woods, H Mallery, W. H. Gibson, A. J. Anderson, E. Williams, W. Holt, R. S Pope, H E. Conners and Mabel Fitts Taylor, mascot of the crew."

You can hear some hard luck stories nowadays in our sign-out room. One porter told our sign-out man that he could not go back home because he was sick without the bacon and the way it looked to him now, he was afraid he had seen his wife his last time unless she sends him her picture.

C. Strand returned Thursday July 17 from the coast—where he has been for about one and a half months. He is one porter who can talk himself around the world.
It has been a long time since we have seen porters hanging around the seniority list trying to find some poor man who is working. Believe me or not the worse is yet to come. To my mind this brings us back to 1907. Boys you should know the rest.
We wonder what J. F. Johnson was trying to do to our old friend, J. Eaton Sunday night, July 13. I bet J. S. Eaton will not spend another night in Harlem soon.
Manager Reid's boys defeated the Daily Star Tuesday evening, July 15 by the score, 9 to 7. The P. T. boys were in charge of their company. A Scott was the absence of Manager clerk, R. A. Ingram, who "is away on his vacation.
H. Hoggan will visit friends and relatives in Chicago before departing for Idle Wake on his vacation.
Well it is all over now. We have lost three straight games to the *Pullman* A. C. It's hard to believe that fate could be so unkind to Mgr. Reid's boys. Last Friday, July 18, McCrae held the Pullman A. C. to three hits yet he lost by the score of 4 to 1 when he should have won 1 to 0. Now this is the way we lost this hard fought game. After two men were out in the fourth inning, J. Donald hit a high drive which S. E. King misjudged and it went for three bases. Then our old friend, Cooper booted one. This tied the score. The boys then battled until the 6th inning when errors by Haywood and Mingo gave the Pullman A. C. three runs which were enough to win and sent Mgr. Reid's boys down to fourth place in the Commercial League standing.
H. Peay has been reinstated and is back on the job. We hope he will stay on the straight and 'narrow path as he must realize that all eyes will be focussed on him for the time being. We have joughed very hard for our old friend's reinstalment. We can repay us by attending to his duties as a porter.
We understand that the field day committee has decided to take 'us over to Dexter Park for our annual field day events this year. This should be good news to all baseball fans as we will be able to give every person a seat at this important game between the T. and N. Y. Dis-Dis-Another hit will give me manager. Hunter of the N. Y. C. team a chance to manage his team without interference from the outside fans who heretofore have crowded our players benches until it was almost impossible to give instructions to our players.
We gave one of our porters a sign-out slip the other day. He said that it had been so long since he had been out he was afraid that he ought to go out under instructions again before assignments to regular services.
You should see our sign-out office these days. You can meet all the old timers snow, that they have blanked so many cars. Boy the "repression" is one and how. All our friends who have been telling us what to do and what they wouldn't do had better soon tell us where, oh where, we are going to get our rent money from if this keeps up. They are telling you "what we are doing for your folks." To my ming they have done too much and are about to do us out of a job. Altogether boys it's time you stop and think some for yourselves and familiar before it's too late.
The above picture shows the class recently graduated by Instructor J. T Reid in the art of soda making. As hot as it is now, Instructor Reid does not seem to like anyone to mention ice cream to him for after all the sampling he had to do, to O. K. these men for work on the soda machine recently installed on some of the train stations he could see in the face now without thinking of all that he had to eat while giving the instructions.

New York City And Private Agency Rivals In Providing Recreational Facilities For Congested Area
133rd-134th Streets Neighborhood To Have Two Swimming Pools and Gymnasiums The neighborhood first occupied by Negroes when they migrated to Harlem-133rd and 134th streets-between Lenox and Fifth avenues-is now receiving the attention of rival social agencies in supplying recreational and playground facilities for the children of this congested area.
York-released a free public bat house on 134th street, near Fifth avenue and during the past few months the city has purchased the property occupied by the Mt. Moriah Baptist Church for a swimming pool. This property has a 60 foot frontage on West 134th street and is 100 feet deep. Contractors will begin demolishing the building about August 1 and work on the new swimming pool will begin immediately thereafter.
Across the street from the city bath house, the Children's Aid Society has purchased a large plot of ground, running through to 133rd street, which was opened this Spring as a children's playground. This property was recently enlarged by the purchase of three other private houses on 134th street, which will be demolished and a modern boy's clubhouse on planned on the 134th street side. This house will also have a swimming pool and gymnasium, similar to the one owned by the city.
Y. M. C. A's New Home
A little further away, on the South side of 135th street between Lenox and Seventh avenues, the Y. M. C. A. plans to erect a modern fireproof Y building, with a swimming pool and gymnasium, the building to cost almost a million dollars.
In discussing the close proximity of these recreational centers with a social worker recently, it was pointed out to The Age reporter that the work being done by these agencies is for different groups. The playground, said the social worker, caters especially to the young children and men with babies. As there are more in the childhood, it supplies

where the children may play, with safety and where the young mothers may sit out in the open air amid dignified 'surroundings. Incidentally, the playground opened its pool for kidnies to wade in last Friday. It is free. The bath-house, on the other hand, does not cater to children, although they are not barred. Its sponsors felt the need of a healthful place where residents of the neighborhood might take baths amid, sanitary surroundings and also; have a place to exercise, etc. The new city swimming pool, is also expected to be used more by adults than by the children, while that of the Children's Society will cater especially to the young boys of the neighborhood. The Y. M. C. A. does not continue its work to boys and men of the immediate-neighborhood but caters to the Negro youth of, all parts of Manhattan and the Bronx.
Some pessimists have argued that Negroes will be forced out of Harlem by economic pressure within the next twenty years but the coming of hese social centers, along with the Harlem Health Center, at 136th street and Lenox avenue, would indicate that 135th street and Lenox avenue, will be the heart of colored Harlem for some years to come.

Cambridge. Mass.—A monster picnic was given by a group of leading business men of both Cambridge and Boston, under auspices of the Commonwealth Lodge. Boston, and the Pocahontas Lodge of Cambridge, I. B. P. O. E. of W. on July 3 and 4, at Pinehurst Reservation, Bedford Hills.
It is sixteen miles from Boston, over 100 feet above sea level, with a stretch of sixty acres of land, consisting of white sandy soil, and a thick growth tall waving pine trees. It is a healthful retreat for both the robust and the weak and physically run-down. The grounds are thickly dotted with buildings to serve the needs of the pleasurable public. The dance pavilion is always an attraction which tends to draw the young folks. Baseball vultures can satisfy their desire by seeing the highest type of skill displayed by participants in that national game.
The spacious kitchen and dinging room departments are kept in the most sanitary order. Fishing and other out-of-door sports are sufficiently plentiful to satisfy the taste of the most exacting connoisseurs in their demand (or diversified amusements.
On the night of the Fourth of July, the Commonwealth Band gave an outdoor concert which delighted the large concourse of people who were present fireworks were displayed in all of the variegated colors of the rainbow; a clear sky and balmy breezes permitted the committee to carry out the entire program.
There were more than one thousand visitors who enjoyed these exercises, and their pleasure was enhanced by the knowledge they were walking on 60 acres of their own land, owned and controlled by their own people.
As darkness covered the earth at the approach of night, the electric lights were jurned on, giving the grounds a weird scene, amounting almost to a land of enchantment, like the magic lantern of Aladdin of the Arabian Nights' Tales.
We are sounding the keynote to the four corners of the earth, that from now on, we, the colored people of this section intend to keep the battle-scarred flag of business activities high in mid-air, and shall take the

Hampton Institute, Va.-The annual Hampton Farmers' Conference was held Wednesday and Thursday, July 9, and, 10, and brought, together, one hundred and sixty-seven farmers, farm women and rural leaders.-The program addressed addresses by Dr. W. J. Inchingham, special office of Farm Management' U. S. Department of Agriculture, Washington D. C., R. Hutcheson, director of Extension, Work in Virginia, and Miss Maude E. Wallace, state agent for Honie Demonstration Work in Virginia.
Dr. Spillman stated that the five major crops of the United States—cotton, wheat, corn, oats and hay—were being produced in greater quantity than the demand at present justified. The problem of alleviating the condition of farmers who are depending upon these five crops is exceedingly difficult. Addressing more, particularly the farmers of the conference who are dependent on tobacco, peanuts, and early potatoes, Dr. Spillman advised the use of market news reports and the planting each season of those crops which were likely to be underplanted and which were likely to bring good prices.
Told To Grow Own Food.
Mr Hutcheson urged members of the conference to grow their own food and feed to lower the cost of production.
Miss Wallace, addressing the women's section of the Conference told the importance of the woman in the success and happiness of the home.
Miss M. Hodsden, extension specialist from Blacksburg, Va., speaking of the immediate outlook in the poultry industry, urged the calling of flocks to fewer but more profitable birds, and the use of more poultry products on the farm. There were demonstrations and talks by J A. Oliver, M. S Klinck, A. C SIME, F. S. Gammack and J. S Higginbotham.
There were excellent moving picture shows on the two nights of the Conference and an unusually fine band concert on the second night. The customary picnic at Shellbanks Farm was enjoyed by everyone.
