New York Members of Brotherhood Of Sleeping Car Porters Astounded When Roy Lancaster Loses Position Had Been Secretary-Treasurer Since Founding of Organization, Headed By Randolph, and Was Largely Responsible For Its Growth Pullman porters attached to the New York districts were astounded when the announcement came, following the second annual session of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, held in St. Louis September 15 and 16, that Roy Lancaster had been supplanted as general secretary-treasurer by the election of Ashley L. Totten, who had been first vice-president. Alderman Fred R. Moore of the 19th A D, because of the vital importance of this line of transportation to the people of Hatlem, requested Joseph V. McKeen, president of the Board of Aldermen, to give his views on the proposed removal President McKeen, under date of September 18, wrote Alderman Moore, citing five reasons why he opposed the proposed demolition of the 60th avenue elevated line. His main reason was the fact that 150,000 people annually use this line to reach their homes in Hatlem and the Bronx, and that no other means of transportation is available for this great mass of hardworking men and women. Pres. McKae's Letter His letter to Alderman Moore read, as follows. September 18, 1930. My dear Alderman You have asked me my views regarding the demolition of the existing Sixth Avenue elevated line from Trinity place to 33rd street. I will be able to give them you. I am opposed at this time to the removal of this artery of rapid transit. I have several reason in support of this. Would Inconvience Thousands First The removal of this elevated would cause inconvenience to thousands of people who live in Harlem and the Bronx. Reports indicate that this line is used annually by about 104,000,000 people. About 15,000,000 people annually use this line as a means for reaching their homes in Harlem and the Bronx. If it were to be taken down, there would be no other means available for this great mass of hardworking men and women to (Continued on Page Nine) New York Member Of Sleeping Car H When Roy Lanca Had Been Secretary-Tri of Organization, Head Was Largely Respon Pullman porters attach tricts were astounded when following the second annu hood of Sleeping Car Portember 15 and 16, that Ro planted as general secretar of Ashley L.

According to report, there has been a converted effort by certain individuals of the organization who were unfriendly to Mr. Lancaster to locate opposition to the proposal that his removal could be brought about. Succeeded by A. L. Totten At St. Louis session, it is reported there were fourteen detainees present, with proxies Philip Randolph of New York and general organizer M. P. Webster of Chicago.

Rivers received the highest vote in the September 16 nomination to nominate Republican candidates for the magistracy in the newly created 10th Municipal Court District. The report gives Mr. Rivers 3,185 votes, 625 votes more than the next nominee, Alderman John Clifford Hawkins, who received 2,562. An unexpected development was shown in the votes cast for the two defeated independent candidates. Assemblyman Lamar Perkins, who was shown in the first returns as running behind Pone B. Billups, actually received a majority over Billups of 24 votes, the respective ballots being Perkins, 1,854: Billups. An unusual feature of the young vote was that the 1,690 blank ballots were cast. Another regretful disclosure was that 673 votes were so careless in marking their ballots as to void them. Including blank and void votes ther were 11,764 ballots cast in the six districts which make up, in part the 10th Municipal Court District The districts are the 11th, 13th, 17th 19th, 21st and 22nd. s of Brotherhood Porters Astoundedaster Loses Position reasurer Since Founding led By Randolph, andsible For Its Growth hed to the New York disn the announcement came, al session of the Brotherers, held in St. Louis Sepy Lancaster had been supy-treasurer by the election had been first vice-presi- give Tolten's name in the list of officers.

Was Efficient Officer Friends of Mr. Lancaster in New York, who are familiar with the workings of the Brotherhood, point out that much of the solid progress that has been made by the organization, particularly with respect to financial increment, has been due largely to Lancaster's efficient energy, and acumen, and that it was largely through his initiative that the present Brotherhood home at 239 West 130th street was acquired. When seen, Mr. Lancaster refused to make any criticism of the action taken at the convention, saying only that he hoped to have his desk cleared within a day or two, when he would immediately turn his office over to president Kendolph. Mr. Lancaster has been with the Brotherhood since its organization. NEW YORK, N. Y., SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 27, 1930. THE NEW STATION HOUSE, 32nd PRECINCT HARLEM BUTCHERS TO BE INSPECTED FOR BAD MEAT Investigation By Age Reporters Shows Meat Sold Is Poor Quality Harlem will get good meat and every store selling meat and poultry will be rigidly inspected as a result of complaints lodged with the Commissioner of Health, Dr Shirley W.

As soon as the purchase was made the chicken was taken to the Board of Health to undergo tests to determine whether or not it was good. An inspector looked the chicken once and said that while it was fit to eat the meat of very inferior grade. At the meeting Mr Moore man Moore sent a letter asking the cooperation of the Commissioner Wynne in giving Harlem only good meat. Under date of September 20, Commissioner Wynne replied to Mr Moore as follows: "I immediately upon receipt of your letter, I directed that an inspection be made of the poultry on sale at the establishment to which you called attention. "Recently; after a conference with representatives of retail butchers, in Harlem, at which it was stated that unbound meat and poultry were sold on Sundays, a special officer was assigned to the duty of inspecting butcher shops from 12th to 13th streets. As the result of a survey on Sunday, September 14th, a small quantity of unfit food was discovered, but on the whole the conditions found were satisfactory. "The Department will continue its Sunday inspection until it is convinced that the food offered for sale in this section of the city meets the requirements." CHAS. E. MITCHELL Chas. E.

Hyscainth picks up her doll, to which she plays mama, and seems to wonder what is all the fuss about. It is all because the little tot has returned from the Harlem Hospital with only a few brushes on her body caused by her falling three stories off the fire escape about eight days ago. She lives with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Roberts Martin at 148 Lenox avenue. They had placed three boards over the fire escape, in order that Hyscainth would not fall through while playing. In some way one of the boards was displaced. After she had been there about two minutes her mother heard a peculiar mouse and ran to the window in time to see the child holding on to one of the iron bars beside her body dangled in the air. Before Mrs. Martin could get out of the window, the child lost her grasp and fell. NEW BURGLARY TRICK FAILS AND MAN LOSES MIND Used Phone to Get Elevator Job; Duped Tenants to Rob Apartments Theodore "Lewis, a Negro, forty years old, was taken to Bellevue hospital Sunday, suffering from a nervous break down which resulted from the break down of his "cop proof," burglary system. Lewis formerly was a fire-escape man; he entered apartments from fire escapes or porch windows, but after being arrested three times he invented his new system, one of the most ingenious ever devised. Lewis learned the name of a man or corporation which owned a building then passed himself off as a representative of the owner. He ordered the superintendent by telephone to dismiss the elevator operator and employ a new one who was on the way to the building. Lewis then would appear, as the new elevator boy, and take his place. Worked It Too Often: After learning the names of tenants he would telephone to one that a special delivery, package was being held for them at a nearby postal station. When the tenant left, the apartment Lewis would enter it and take what he could find. His most successful work was done at the flat of Mrs. Herbert Meyers at 536 West 111th street, where he obtained jewelry and clothing worth $1,600. The Lewis system was alright but he worked it too often. Detectives warned: apartment house owners against him. When Lewis appeared at an apartment house at 151 West 105th street Sunday, he found Detectives William May William Barrett and James Hennessy waiting for him. On discovering that what he considered the greatest burial scheme ever invented had failed him, Lewis was seized with hysteria and melanoma and was taken to Believe Hospital. The detectives computed that he had perpetrated fifty burialies since last April.

Efforts were made by her husband, William Roach, and several friends to have Mrs. Roach committed to Bellevue Hospital for observation prior to her being sentenced to prison, as it was thought that heavy financial burden and humiliation caused. This she refused to agree to, and so was sentenced August 8 by Judge Max Soloman in the Court of Special Sessions. Had Been Dispossessed the complainant in the case against Mrs. Roach was Elmer M. Stengler, a white real estate man, who lives at 35 Hillside avenue. Queens. He had her arrested last May for passing the worthless check. She was released in $500, bail by Magistrate McQuade and the case was postponed from time to time in order that she might make good When she failed to do this, the case was sent down town. While this case was pending, Mrs. Roach was dispossessed from her home at Edgecombe avenue and at stet street. The action following the dispossess caused her husband and friends to believe that she had become mentally unbalanced. Instead of securing another home, or a furnished room, she is reported to have spat her days and nights between July 15 and August 8 in the city parks, and refused several offers of friends to help her.

Brown, Pastor Metropolitan Baptist Church, Dies Of Heart Attack at Late Residence Was Aggressive Leader of One of Largest Congregations in New York, Emphasizing Value To Them Owning Their Own Property After fifty-two years of service as a Baptist minister, the Rev. Dr. Willis W. Brown, pastor of Metropolitan Baptist Church, 128th street and Seventh avenue, died suddenly on Wednesday evening, September 17, at 7:50 o'clock, from a heart attack. Death occurred at his late home, 143 West 131st street. He was 71 years old. Dr. Brown had been in bad health for about thirty years, but had managed to attend to his pastoral duties with the assistance of his son, the Rev. W. Abner Brown, who is associate pastor of Metropolitan Church. His physical disability was incurred when, as a teenager, he strenuously winters weather and had a foot frozen. He had received treatment at Saratoga Springs, but received little benefit. Urgéd Property Buying Dr. Brown founded Metropolitan Church sixteen years ago with 200 members. The enrollment now is more than 3,000. He was always a strong advocate for property owning, and not only influenced the church, to buy valuable properties, but exerted himself among the members of his church to the extent that several hundred are now home owners. He organized among his members the 50 Per Cent Prof Sharing Co., starting with a capital of $30,000, which acquired in time ten apartment houses having an assessed value of $500,000. These properties were sold in 1919 to the Watt Terry Holding Co, Inc., 2380 Seventh avenue. Later, he organized the Progressive Commercial Association, which has assets of about $500,000, including a real estate business, a hardware sstore, and seven houses, all owned and controlled exclusively by Negroes. He was reputed to be individually wealthy. The Metropolitan Beneficial Society was another organization he sponsored. Had 15 Days Schooling Dr. Brown was born February 1, 1859, in Franklin, Va. the son of John and Susie Brown. His entire scholastic education consisted of fifteen days attendance in the Franklin school, but he has had the benefit of tutoring from well qualified teachers, one being a fellow pastor. Dr. George H. Sims, pastor of Union Baptist Church, this city Dr. Brown was given the degree of D. D.; in 1901 by Guadalupe College. Sequin, Texas. In his early youth, he engaged in farming, but entered the ministry at the age of 19. After several years of itinerant preaching, he was called to pastor High Street Baptist Church, Roanoke, Va., remaining there 13 years; then followed 14 years as pastor of Ebenezer Baptist Church, Pittsburgh, Va., after which he came to New York and founded Metropolitan Church. Metropolitan was originally located on West 138th street, between Lenox and Seventh avenue where a crypt was erected. The edifice was never completed, as the congregation, eventually got possession of the present stately edifice at 128th street and Seventh avenue. This property, valued at $300,000 could not be purchased directly by Dr. Brown and his people, as the others did not want to sell to Negroes, but he arraigned the purchase through a white friend. The building was paid for in the remarkably short space of nine years. Sold Church To Garveyite The 188th street property was sold to Marcus Garvey, and he opened it for the U. N. I. A. as Rummage Sale For Katy Ferguson Home The House Committee of the Katy Ferguson Home For Unmarried Mothers is planning the usual Katy Ferguson Home Rumimage Sale to be held October 10, 11 and 13, at the home, 102 West 130th street, and are asking the public generally for contributions of clothing, hats, shoes and household articles.

Later, the lodge will erect an Elk's home on the center plot. Always interested in civic, political and economic affairs; Dr. Brown was always active in all movements that affected the Negro. His church gave thousands of dollars to foreign missions, and several missionaries were educated for service in the foreign fields. One of them was Dr. J. H. East, correspondent secretary, Foreign Mission Board. (Continued on Page Nine) BARBERSHOPS IN NEW CONFERENCE REDUCE PRICES 50 Cents Is New Price For Hair Cuts; Make Change In Hours The Harlem barbershops which belong to the Union have reduced their prices which they increased following the strike last month. The new price for haircuts will be 50 cents instead of 60 cents; the working-hours on weekdays will be from 9 a. m. to 9 p. m. and on Saturdays from 9 a. m. to 11 p. m. The change in price and hours of working came as a result of a conference last week called by the Associated Master Barbers' Association to determine by what means the union barbershops could be helped out of the peculiar predicament in which they found themselves following the strike last month. Many of the Union shops were finding it difficult to maintain the wage scale in the face of such competition. Non-Union Shops Open In all sections of Harlem, shops outside of the Union were and are advertising haircuts for 40 cents and people flocked to these shops in preference to the Union shops where haircuts were 10 cents. In many of these shops where the low prices are prevailing union barbers are working in distance of the union, and efforts by union officials to call these men out of the shops have been of no avail. In a street where there is one union shop, it is not uncommon to find three or four non-union shops with big signs on the outside advertising the lower prices. As a last resort--for they were doing no business—the union boss, barbers have come to the agreement that from now on the price will be 30 cents for haircuts: SOCIETY, CLUB & FRATERNAL DOINGS Mr. and Mrs. A.

Reed of Boston, Mass. is the inventor of a new type of auto brakes. His demonstrations in New York City have attracted the attention of the leading auto brake manufacturers and it is reported he has received several flattering offers. His brakes are similar to air brakes but instead of using compound stroke the motor is used. This locks the wheels instantly. It can also be used in dumping trucks, shooting sand to prevent skidding, etc. Mr. Reed who has been working on the invention for the past 6 years, also claims, that it can be used to increase the horsepower of a motor Man.

BROOKLYN, MANHATTAN, LONG ISLAND Passing of Alleged Counterfeit Bills Causes Friends to Fall Out And Ends With Serious Shooting Harry Gardner Taken to Hospital With Bullet Wound Over Heart After His Friend, Chas Robinson, Accepts Two Phony $20 Bills The alleged passing of two $20 bills on his friend, Charles Robinson of 61 West 131st street, who is employed as a bartender in a Lenox avenue speakeasy, by Harry Gardner of 870 St. Nicholas avenue, was the direct cause of Robinson firing a .45 calibre bullet into Gardner's body, just above the heart, on Wednesday morning, September 17. The shooting occurred in the barroom of another speakeasy at 2450 Seventh avenue, following a heated argument between the two men. The argument started when Robinson walked into the saloon, found Gardner there, with some friends, and refused to take a drink offered by one of the friends because of his feeling against Gardner. a long Colt .45 in his hand. He deliberately rested the gun on his left arm and pulled the trigger. Simultaneously with the report, Gardner grasped his left breast and turned, fleeing out of the back door. Robinson followed, as others in the scene drowned back gun of range. All save Blackman, who ensured to follow Gardner through the rear. Passed Counterfeit Bills The report is that some days ago Gardner went into the saloon where Robinson is employed and called for drinks for everybody in the place. After he had repeated this three times, Gardner tendered a $20 to Robinson in payment of his bill. Because of his confidence in Gardner, Robinson unhesitatingly accepted the bill and returned the proper change. Gardner then pulled out another bill of the same denomination asking Robinson to return it, but reminding Gardner that he had just received a lot of change, but When-Gardner stated that he wanted to attend to some money matters Robinson willingly made the change. But later, either when the owner of the saloon checked up the money in the cash register, or when he made the decision that the two bills were counterfeit. Robinson had to make good the $40 shortage. Failed to Adjust Matter Then because of his friendship for the man, he tried to adjust it with Gardner instead of reporting it to the police. It was his failure to accomplish this that engenderedutterness of feeling toward Gardner.When Robinson, on Wednesdaymorning, refused to drink becauseGardner was in the party, the latterwalked over to where Robinson was standing and urgedher to drink the drink.This action angered Robinson,and he protected to upbraid his former friend, using such stronglanguage in doing so that Gardner protested, saying that he Gardnercould not use this drink.Robinson this only unsecuredRobinson the more, and ledto him making the charge thatGardner had passed "phong" moneyon another friend. Ernest Blackmanof 2450 Seventh Avenue, whois bartender in a saloon furthera South avenue, at 140th or 141st street. Lost $40 Bet Gardner denied the charge and the argument became heated to the extent that the two men made a bet on the matter. The betting began when Gardner reached it reached $ each: The money was placed in the hands of "Dian" who runs a lunch counter in the saloon. Then the men went up to where Blackman took the money. Gardner had passed any bad money on him, thus casing Robinson to lose the second $40. After that, the men returned to 2450, Blackman with them. The adDITIONAL money the Gardner had passed to have preyed on his mind, bringing him to a desperate determination. In a few minutes he walked out of the saloon, saying nothing to anybody. The other men continued standing at the end of Shortly afterwards, Robinson returned. He walked to the middle of the bad, eyed Gardner for a second, then turned his back on the men, fumbling at his waistband. Aman standing near seemed to have surmised what was coming and yelled at him, saying, "Man, what are you doing Quit that foolishness." Gardner Shot By Robinson Robinson paid no heed, but turned again to face the group, with CORRECTION In reporting a "good Samaritan" act by Jumis M. Green in last week's issue of *The Ace*, he acted this week for the state of South Carolina of 213 West 190th street, was a former number's banker. This Mr. Smith denies, and also that his wife is sick and in despair circumstances, as was stated. Mrs Smith is in good health, and is now living in New Haven, Conn., states he was arrested. Mr. Smith was arrested a few weeks ago for giving a bad check to Walter Jolly, a garage owner. When the case was called in the Heights Court, and it appeared that Mr. Smith could not make good, the police said Mr. Green came forward and said it for him. a long Colt .45 in his hand. He deliberately rested the gun on his left arm and pailed the trigger. Simultaneously with the report, Gardner grasped his left breast and turned, sleeping out of the back door. He walked in behind the saloon dropped haack out of range. All save Blackman, who ensaw to follow Gardner through the rear exit as Robinson was trying to get through also. So Blackman fell with one bullet in his hip and another in his leg. His gun empired, Robinson walked through the saloon, out of the front door. He walked in his hand, where he coolly hailed a taxicab and ordered the chauffeur to drive to the West 130th street police station. Entering the station, he walked up to the desk, laid his gun down and told the lieutenant the building and shot two men on Seventh avenue. He was quickly taken into custody, while a host of reserves and plain clothes men piled out of the building and rushed to 240 Seventh avenue, where they found Robinson, where they found Robinson, who did not find the wounded man. Gardnera Physical Stamina , For not understanding that it was a most serious wound, Gardner had made his way out the street, with Blackman, and the two men had taken a taxicab up to 141st street, where Gardner's girl friend lives on a top floor, then had gutten eat and called to her from the pavement, telling her, "I've been shut down on down and take a look at the hospital" and "looking at the window, saw that Gardner's light hat was blooded on the brim, as though his bloody fingers had spotted it. He was taken to Harlem's Hospital with Blackman. The latter's wounds were found to be not serious, though painful, but Gardner was found to be badly wounded. Robinson is being held to await the outcome of Gardner's wounds. Scores of police officers investigated the shooting headed by Inspector McNeal. Flashback photographs of the saloon were taken by the employees of the saloon were held on charges of illegal possession of alcoholic liquors for the Federal court. Gardner Wanted by Police Additional information is to the effect that Gardner was released from the hospital on Saturday, and that now the police are looking for him for a crime he was wanted in that city on a charge which has not been stated. Another story is that Gardner had been in jail on the charge of passive counterfeit money, based on the Robinson incident and another, but that on real he was accrued beaten and not to have appeared against him.

A PRIMARY LESSON The result of the primary elections held last week, to nominate two candidates for the newly created municipal court in the Tenth Judicial district of Manhattan, demonstrated in no uncertain manner that the voters of Harlem are mastering the intricacies of civic government. While there were two independent candidates in the field, contesting the designations made by the Republican organization, the campaign was carried on without aud slinging or acrimonious debate. The good qualities of all the candidates received recognition and they polled a large enough vote to indicate the existence of independence of choice on the part of a minority of the enrolled voters. But the majority rolled up for the regularly designated candidates left no doubt as to their carrying the bulk of the party vote with them. The casting of the ballots was carried out in good order without any disturbances at the polls, and in such manner as to insure a full and free expression of the will of the enrolled members of the party. The election was pretty nearly a model of what a primary election should be and carried with it popular approval of the selections made by the party leaders. This is the logical result to be expected from any primary contest, unless some issue is raised arousing popular interest. As a rule primary elections are not regarded very seriously by the masses of the voters, although their results often determine the actual choice of elective officers. The only jarring note in the primary campaign was sounded by a disgruntled white office-seeker, who sent out cards to any of the enrolled voters printed as follows: The result of the primary elections held last week, to nominate two candidates for the newly created municipal court in the Tenth Judicial district of Manhattan, demonstrated in no uncertain manner that the voters of Harlem are mastering the intricacies of civic government.

Alderman Moore is an insulting and conceived BOSS. Eliminate his influence from JUDICIAL control. DEFEAT RIVERS his handpicked candidate. The result of the primary vote showed that this malicious and mendacious slur proved to be a political boomerang, the total vote given Rivers being much larger than that received by any of the other candidates. This was a deserved rebuke administered to a disturber of the political amenities that characterized the rest of the campaign. The general result was encouraging as indicating the progress made by the voters of Harlem in expressing their confidence in the leaders whom they have chosen and to whom they have ledged their support. All of the candidates are to be commended for the fairness and freedom from cheap trickery that have characterize their campaign, and which enabled the voters to make their choice solely on the merits and records of the individual candidates. One of the features of the primary which should receive careful scrutiny and attention by the leaders and workers, as the large number of blank and void ballots cast for the judges. When one out of nearly every five ballots cast moves to be either blank or void, there is necessity for some investigation as to the reason why an enrolled Republican either avoids making a choice of candidates or fails to mark his ballot properly. One election district, comprising nearly white voters, there were counted eighty ballots left blank in the column for a choice of judges. If these voters are good Republicans their district leader and election district captains should point to them the importance of making choice in the matter of new judges for the new municipal court, intended to serve their interests. As to the void ballots, which perhaps aggregated five percent of the total vote, they were largely due to blunders of the voters in indicating their choice. This is matter which could be corrected by a more intensive work on the part of the captains and workers in each election district.

It indicates that the average voter of the race is intelligent enough to express his choice clearly and to withstand the attempt of any disgruntled politician to becloud the issues. CALIFORNIA LEGION SCORES LYNCHING. The California Department of the American Legion, in its recent convention held in Sacramento, adopted a resolution calling upon the National Department of the Legion, to use its influence in stamping out lynching. The resolution adopted read as follows: The California Department of the American Legion, in its recent convention held in Sacramento, adopted a resolution calling upon the National Department of the Legion, to use its influence in stamping out lynching. The resolution adopted read as follows: Whereas, the practice of mob violence and lynching is increasing in such a way as to shake the very foundation of the American government, and Whereas, the commission of any act against society by any person or persons; at any time is repulsive to the progressive, thinking and law-abiding citizens, and Whereas, the practice of persons in nullifying and disregarding the constituted methods of deaths with crime and the meeting out of such punishment they see fit, even to the taking of lives of men, women and children, without due regard to their guilt or innocence, is mob violence and is a menace to the peace and security of its citizens, now therefore be it Resolved, that the American Legion, Department of California, in regular convention assembled, this 19th day of August, 1930, hereby calls upon the National Department of the American Legion at its Twelfth Annual Convention assembled at Boston, Massachusetts, to use its influence to destroy the menace of mob, violence in all of its phases, and to approve any measures tending to remove this blot from our daily life. This sentiment is in keeping with, the denunciation of lynching made by the Texas Free Mason, which called upon the order in that State to stand unalterably opposed to such vicious, ignorant violence, and supplements the excoration of lynching by the New York Daily Mirror as a form of moral perversion. It should seem that a resolution of this kind should be adopted by the National Department of the American Legion without debate. But it is well to consider that the National Encampment of the Grand Army of the Republic, composed of the Veterans of the Civil War, once known as the War of the Rebellion, refused to pass a similar resolution directed against lynching. The only reason given for this refusal was that such a resolution might give offence to their former opponents, the unreconstructed rebels of the South. That shows how far the surviving Union veterans have fallen behind the sentiments that carried them through the war to preserve the Union and to preserve human rights. The forces that are opposed to lynching, as a menace to the national peace and security, should get behind a movement to have Congress pass an anti-lynching measure.

INSURANCE AND JOBS. In an article entitled "Premium Income and Jobs." Harry H. Pace, well known as an authority on insurance, shows, why our people should patronize their own life insurance companies in preference to others. His statements, while startling as to amounts of income paid to white insurance companies are given as underestimated rather than overestimated. The result of this tabulation of the total premiums paid to nine white companies by colored policyholders during the year of 1929 was over sixty-seven million dollars. Out of the income created and maintained by these premium payments he asserted that not one job was given to colored people. On the other hand, Mr. Pace found that the total premium payments made to twelve colored companies by colored policyholders during the same period amounted to a little over thirteen million dollars. The total number of jobs created and maintained by these premium payments is stated as 5,451. It is assumed that all of these jobs are filled by colored people, which warrants the following conclusion drawn by Mr. Pace. In an article entitled "Premium Income and Jobs." Harry H.

The total number of jobs created and maintained by these premium payments is stated as 5,451. It is assumed that all of these jobs are filled by colored people, which warrants the following conclusion drawn by Mr Pace. Let us suppose that the $67,210,355 that went into the hands of white companies who refused to employ a single colored agent or clerk or stenographer had gone into the hands of those colored companies. This vast sum of money would have created jobs for at least 15,000 colored men and women who would have been employed as clerks, stenographers, agents and bookkeepers to take care of this additional business. In addition there would have been Millions of Dollars available for first mortgage loans on the property of colored people whereas not a one of these companies listed in the white group make a practice of lending money on property either owned or occupied by colored people This is a phase of the life insurance business that is not generally considered by the applicant who takes out a policy. In fact, when the matter of loans is taken into consideration, there are two phases of the insurance question hitherto ignored. Mr. Pace has thrown some light to dark places that illumines this saying: Patronage is closely akin to jobs when the patronage is race patronage." REMOVING THE ELEVATED ROAD.

Mr. Place has thrown some light in dark places that illumines his saying: "Patronage is closely akin to jobs when the patronage is race patronage." REMOVING THE ELEVATED ROAD. The conductors and guards on the Sixth avenue Elevated Road have been secur- THE NEW YORK-AGE signatures from passengers on the street during the last few weeks protested against any movement by the city to remove the structure. Most of the passengers willingly signed this protest, that a convenient and airy mode of transportation would be denied that before any adequate substitute had been provided. This seems to represent failure in the popular attitude against any removal of the elevated structure, in order to provide for the construction of a subway wiper over the avenue. Last week President McKee of the Board of Aldermen announced his operation to the projected removal of the structure, being the first city official to take his position clear on that subject. Mr. McKee does not believe that the Sixth Avenue subway will take place if the elevated road, even after the latter demolished, for the reason that it merely a branch of the Eighth Avenue subway, and he favors a suspension construction of the former road until the Eighth Avenue subway is completed and is carrying capacity tested. Other points raised by Mr. McKee against the removal of the elevated road are the matter of cost and who is paying the bill. The cost of the removal of the extension above Fifty-third street is not yet been settled, nor that of the Fort second street spur branch. The assumption that the adjacent property owner will have to pay the cost is not assured and the fact that the engineers are calling for the removal of the road on the ground of safety during construction of the subway, would weaken the case of the city attempting to assess the cost upon the property owners. A Brooklyn paper, in citing the example of the construction of the Full Street subway while the elevated road continued in full operation as an argument against this warning of the engineers, stated that perhaps the Brooklyn road being a later undertaking, might be a better construction than the Sixth avenue structure, which was one of the pioneer experiments in this mode of transportation.

TRICKY HARLEM RETAILERS. Investigation of a number of complaints coming to The Age office has shown the number of retail dealers in Harlem are frauduing their customers by selling them bad meat and poultry and rotut. These articles, which are unfit food, are not only a fraud on the bus but a direct menace to the health of the consuming them. In the interest of a number of complaints the office has shown that dealers in Harlem are customers by selling poultry and rotten les, which are unfit for a fraud on the buyer to the health of those In the interest of the and there ply p One City Act Look come ment. three condu wonder in the Thee Investigation of a number of complaints coming to The Age office has shown that a number of retail dealers in Harlem are defrauding their customers by selling them bad meat and poultry and rotten fruit. These articles, which are unfit for food, are not only a fraud on the buyer but a direct menace to the health of those consuming them. In the interest of the people of Harlem, whose healths and pockets are exploited and endangered in this brazen manner. The Age sent out several investigators who purchased meat and poultry at several of the places named as practicing this sort of fraud. The purchases were sent to the Department of Health for inspection and in many instances the complaints were verified. The Health Department, under Commissioner Wynne, has done much to improve sanitary conditions in Harlem and has established many reforms in the guarding of the physical welfare of its residents. This matter of the sale of bad food stuffs to ignorant or unwary purchasers is one of prime importance, which demands the most rigorous measures to prevent ill effects. Strict inspection of all places selling meat, poultry and fruit is necessary in order to stop the selling of articles unfit for food. Besides the damage done to the payer's pockethook, there is the greater peril to the health of the consumers involved in the consumption of unfit foods. There is also the practice of giving short weight on the part of some unscrupulous dealers, who do not hesitate to doctor their scales to the extent of allowing only fourteen ounces to the pound. This is another fraud on the customer, who pays for much more than he receives on every purchase made. The city department of weights and measures is supposed to test the accuracy of the scales of retailers, at certain intervals, so as to insure the giving of full weight on every purchase, but the inspection is not rigid enough to guard against trickery on the part of the dishonest retailer. Housekeepers and others who do the marketing for the family, should post themselves, so as to be able to determine had meat and poultry by its appearance, and avoid the purchase of any articles that look doubtful. This may involve the change of dealers in some cases and perhaps the paying of higher prices for articles of good quality. The reputation of the dealer for giving fair weight and good quality should always be taken into consideration, however great the inducement offered by others who cut prices to dispose of goods of dubious quality. Health and honest weight should be a first consideration in buying articles for home consumption. We see no such dark cloud ahead. We trust the union barber shop means, (1) that barbers because of higher pay and shorter hours will be better workmen; (2) that the excellence of service and appointments in union barber shops will make the operation of any other kind of shop unpopular and unprofitable. While the barber shops of Harlem may be unisonized, it must not be forgotten that there are many others throughout the greater city where the cheaper rates still rule. Barber's prices, like other retail tradesmen, seem to vary with their location. The Palmetto Leader of Columbia, S. C. did not hesitate to charge the dictator of Italy with responsibility for the Black Shirt movement in Atlanta, in the following editorial: The efforts of Benito Mussolini are doing their best to spread terror COMMENTS BY THE AGE EDITORS ON SAYINGS OF OTHER EDITORS Until the average shopper is drilled in the practice of A peculiar feature of Southern journalism is the Colored section in the white dailies, devoted to news gathered by Negro writers for readers of their race. For example, the Florida TimesUnion of Jacksonville devoted nearly a full page to this purpose, under the heading of, "News for and About Colored People." In a box it carried the names of four "Colored News editors," including a sports editor and a society editor. The news articles included a monthly meeting of the Home Demonstration Council, Church activities, club and social happenings. The titles of Mrs. and Miss were scrupulously used in the reports of the female organizations, while Revs. and Deacons sprinkled the church doings. One feminine group announced a coming meeting at the home of a certain miss on Bloggett lane, under the uncompromising title of "Gold Diggers Social Club of Broadway." That sweet simplicity of name should carry its own story. Recalling some unusual things encountered on a visit to Detroit, E. Washington Rhodes wrote in the Philadelphia Tribune: There is nothing unusual about a street car motorman. But when one sees a black man running a street in democratic America, one sits up and takes notice. In Detroit, forty colored men operate street cars through that city's streets. There are several conductors who are identified with the Negro street. And nothing alarming has happened. It is worth observing that the street railway system in Detroit is under city management. Then there are hundreds of Negro taxi drivers. Several cab companies are owned by Negroes. Incidentally, one company so owned operates more than a hundred cabs. Any time I visit a large city, I like to check and double check on what Negroes are doing politically. I believe Tribune readers are just interested in these things. There are in Detroit, three Lieutenants of Detectives, two Sergeants and three police women—of course there are numerous policemen I simply point out the most interesting One City Tax Assessor, one Country Accountant, five Deputy Sheriffs Look out Philadelphia—One Income Tax Clerk, Federal Government, one Circuit Court Clerk and three County Clerks of all these the motormen and conductors interested me most I wondered why we couldn't have them in the City of Brotherly Love. There is no valid reason why Negroes should not be employed to a larger extent by city transportation companies, except perhaps that few of them seek jobs as conductors or motormen. The same qualities that make good elevator operators should fit them for transportation service. Discussing the New York barber situation, as affected by the recent strike and other developments of the trade, the Baltimore Afro-American said: Finally came the barber's biggest opportunity. Women discovered that they wanted their hair bobbed, washed, ironed and marcelled. Barber shops were equipped to handle this business; but they lacked knowledge of the various "systems" of hair treatment. While they looked down upon the "hair business" of the weaker sex, beauty parlors owned and operated by women sprang up by over the country trade by ride with barber shops. The barbers had muffed their chance. In Baltimore, women pay $1 to $150 for having their hair "washed." men pay 35 cents for a hair cut. Beauty shops for women have regular hours and the managers and journey-women get a two to four weeks' vacation. Most harber shops are cheap in price, irregular in hours and work the employees the whole year through. Unionizing of Harlem's harber shops, accordance to Mr. Rivers, B. Lems, mineral resident of the Railway Dining Car Cooks and Wasters Association, is bound to result in bootleg harber shops and outlaw harbers. picking out wholesome meats and poultry, and fruit that has not been spoiled in transit; the need for strict and vigilant inspection of food shops by the Department of Health should not be relaxed. The Age has already taken steps to bring to the attention of the Health authorities some of the most flagrant offenders in the matter of selling bad meats and poultry. and consternation among the darker denizens of Georgia. The Fascists have applied for permission to incorporate in that state with the avowed purpose of upholding the United States Constitution and maintaining white Supremacy. Fascismo would have all Negroes regrinvol whatever jobs they have and turn them over, pronto, to the white unemployed. Whether or not these Fascists are successful in setting up their organization in Georgia they will do a great deal of harm by stirring up the Georgia populace, and stimulating racial hatred which will be enough in Georgia in turn. Is woods that Negroes take kindly to the ideas expressed by the Communists, when they find democracy to be what it is; and the other world political movements at charged with the venom of hatred as they are? Many Georgia towns have turned deaf ears toward the inanities of the Fascists, and it is not likely that their efforts will meet with complete success. Editor Frederick need not go as far as Italy to fix responsibility for this new movement, which is only another phase of Ku Kluxism, which has exchanged its white sheets and pillow cases for black shirts. Fortunately, the Georgia courts do not seem inclined to favor giving the promoters permission to incorporate, possibly because of its menace to business. Referring to the movement "For a Greater Los Angeles," the California Eagle of that town asked: "Have we here in Los Angeles given consideration to the appeal, or the appeals, which will create new residents for this wonderful city?" It continued. Conventions will try any community once and they will not feel greatly disappointed if the things offered and promised are not delivered. One can be sure, however, that that particular convention gathering will not again visit the particular city for many years if the citizens fail in their promises. Activities will pass and merely smile at bombastic claims which cannot be proven when once on the ground. Home seekers, new residents, are in earnest. They expect what is promised. A home builder depends upon what is offered to be as represented. If one disappoints him one makes unfriendly forever and a day someone who might have become a part and parcel of the community. Its analysis of a community brings forth the action of one of the leaders in the newsroom, that objective should be promoted in earnest, on a sound economic basis. We must not overlook the fact that jobs and financial assistance will be vastly more important than climate and scenery, in obtaining newcomers to Los Angeles. While these latter are desirable and often enjoyable, it is impossible to live on them as an exclusive diet. Communities that cannot offer tangible things cannot take care of more people and absorb them. The California editor regards this as a phase of the local situation that demands the best thought of our people to help solve it. In the same issue an industrial council was announced for the following Sunday to join in a big industrial demonstration. A pertinent question that should interest the police, was raised by the Louisville Leader in an editorial headed "Robbers" in which it said. According to local news the Negro is painting the old town red as a thief and robber. Is it? Are the assaults of men and women on our streets and the fellows who are breaking into Louisville homes, in both cases seeking money—are they really Negroes? Or are they burnt-cook artists? Or are the victims adding mendacity to crame? Or are the reporters eating the public what it is entitled to—the facts in the case? One can see why anybody (who can put his hands on his conscience) might in these times resort to attacking pedestrians and breaking into houses in search of that very scarce necessity—money. And white people who have it or are supposed to have it are not surprised at being the objects of envy and attack while the poor yellow—the unbleached American—whose pocket book is flat and whose larder is empty would yield to his lower instincts to obtain what he needs. Far be it from us to condone theft and robbery. But every newspaper reader has the same thoughts as we have expressed when he opens his paper and reads several accounts of robbery or attempted robbery. We are living this summer in the kind of times that breed robberies, hold-ups, burglaries. Unfortunate it is. May we soon pass through these crime-suggesting crime breeding days. While we offer this explanation for the frequency of hold-ups and burglaries, we yet do not offer this explanation as any excuse for these crimes, whether they be committed by white men or colored men. The device employed by many white criminals, of blackening their faces before starting out to commit a crime, is so well known to the po Saturday, September 27, 1930 THE AGE READER'S FORUM LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Communications addressed to the Editor will be printed in this column if they bear the name and address of the writer.

THOMAS Editor of The New York Age: Perhaps never before in the history of the world has a disfranchise, now more primitive than so completely dominated political questions and issues than is true of the fifteen million Negroes in America. The presence of the Negro in politics is not confined, to any particular section of the country. He seems more powerful, however, in the part of country where he is almost completely disfranchised than in the sec- not only in Georgia, but in foregoing segregation upon the Negroes in the various departments at Washington, D. C. Senator Harris was reelected. So much time was required to discuss the Negro and white supremacy that the contestants had practically no time to tell what they were going to do to promote the economic, industrial and political elements of the respective states. Of course the matter of tariff, taxes, commerce, industry, law and order fade into insignificance when the all important question of "how to keep the Negro in his place" is up for discussion. Thus a voteless people still either elect a voteless our candidates for public office in this Year our Our Lord, 1930. Belittling Colored Man Editor of The New York Age: One hears much about the preface of white writers who take every opportunity to take the white man an object of admiration and adoration among womanhood. About the most flawant offence of this kind I ever read was in the magazine section of the New York Journals of Saturday, September 20. Byron Bidwell, referred to as exalterns, an author and lecturer, telling of the romantic adventure of American sailors marooned on the Pacific Island of Tahoe writes: "The girls have a singular liking for the visiting white man. They distrust their own men folk, who in turn, know their places and do not try to mingle with them unless invited to do so. She trusts the man with incredible willingness and asks nothing but his love." There are Negroes who may smile and think lightly of the obvious intent to make a heroic figure of the white man at the expense of the colored man, but it is just such subtle prose that the false historian has created a false historian in one group, and a dangerous and superficial superiority complex in another. PRESTON C. COUSLEY. The Week of September 27 Astrologically Considered rowed, Domestic and family-fairs will require great patience. September 30 begins a birthyear that will bring gain and honor through earnest and patient effort. Those who follow professional vocations are well favored.

Financial affairs can bring unhappiness to the family circle if not watched. A good year for business and employment. The new birthyear for October 2 will bring opportunities for success to those who follow unusual or social vocations. Travel will bring honor in the future. Those who follow mental and professional vocations should get far ahead except for the negative periods that are mentioned in the first paragraph.

THOMAS Editor of The New York Age: Perhaps never before in the history of the world has a disfranchised, non-voting-minority element so completely dominated political questions and issues than is true of the fifteen million Negroes in America. The presence of the Negro in politics is not confined, to any particular section of the country. He seems more powerful, however, in the part of country where he is almost completely disfranchised than in the section where he is permitted to immortalize and in the senatorial contests in Georgia, South Carolina and Louisiana now closing, the Negro, although physically absent from the political meetings, and denied the privilege of participating in the white primaries, was the dominating influence in either the success or defeat of the contestants. In Louisiana, the veteran Senator Joseph Randell was allecled to have written a letter to Colonel Walter Cohen in which he addressed him as "Mister," Governor Long is said to have used this death dealing material to defeat the good senator. Long was elected. In South Carolina, Blease was accused of pardoning some Negroes who had been convicted of assaulting white women, and as a paradox he expressed himself as being in sympathy with lynching if the right Negro was caught. Under such circumstance he says, "To Hell with the Constitution," including the 14th and 15th Amendments. The notorious senator of the Palmetto state was retired to private life. In Georgia Senator Harris and ex-Governor John Slaton were contestants. Harris sought reelection. He stated repeatedly over the state that Slaton voted against disfranchising the Negro, as well as made speeches against it. He made bold to state that he. Senator Harris, was in favor of disfranchising the Negro, and did all he could to bring it about. By "THEARCHER" Financial affairs will improve considerably for the people of this week during all of August, 1931, and progress will be made in occupational and vocational matters. People of this week will not find it practical or advisable to lend or borrow money before then, and it is best that nothing be purchased unless for cash as it will not be easy to get money before next year. November and December of this year are periods, that hold strong vibrations of Saturn, and especially will this Saturnian influence be felt during the last week of December this year, and the first week of January, 1931. Those who have jobs will need to be careful to avoid antagonizing the superiors in the employment. During these months it would be well for people of this week to avoid buying real estate, avoid moving or changes in any way if possible, and to guard the health. Patience in domestic affairs will help September 27 begins a birthyear that will prove worthwhile to those who are patient and tactful. Those who plan ahead will be able to succeed "The inclination to be careless in manners and actions should be avoided. Nothing can be kept secret and it is best that nothing be done that would cause dishonor if known." The birthyear for September 28 will bring changes in occupational matters, and those who hold important positions should be on guard to avoid loss through enemies. Speech and writing should show good and discreet Patience will bring success quicker than haste and impatience and variations are intensely energetic for the folk, of olday; and the inclination to hurry and rush will be strong but will not bring results that will be worth while. Patience should be the motif. The people who begin another birthyear on September 29 will not go through the period without more or less changes in the employment or business.

Why then is not the health of children? This was the text chosen by Rev W. P. Hayes, pastor at Mt. Olivet, Baptist Church, Sunday morning, September 16, 2014, the holy and spiritual diseases of man, the right physician and the remedy. He described Jeremiah the weeping prophet, how he lamented the law of God. He defined law as the basis of order, and explained that one cannot, or educate evil by human methods, or machinery, either can we legislate and peace into the hearts of men. He explained the symptoms of disease as being selfishness, avarice, pride, envy, ungratefulness, jealousy, maliciousness, cruelty and defective wills and memory. The teacher diagnosed the case, would be the one who made us and knows all about us: One who suffered in the flesh the same as man has suffered. He who knows all about God and all about man, and he is mediator between the two. He then urged that we seek the Lord. Hearts, hearts, hearts, and accessible, and who cives his services free of charge, also guaranteed to heal. The two Bible classes held their sessions at 1:30 o'clock.

It is the time of learning and talking about fundamental things. The man who has advantages and opportunities and does not use them, shall suffer more at the day than he knows the plan and will of God but will not do according to this plan and will. The world today is full of wasted opportunities. We are to be judged according to our own abilities and will human life today. We should use our advantages so that we can grow. We must depend upon God for his help, to make those changes that will make for our betterment. Judgment is the only way to make inventions of today make everything at the hand of the youth of today. What more can God place in our hands? Advantages are wonderful, marvelous. It usually comes down to a matter of what we want to be somebody. The judgment of society voices contempt because we value not the things that are to be esteemed of God. Character must be back of God, and not a partial thunk, among the seeming educated today is that they are wefully partially educated. The laboratory of college will try the faith, there is a need of praying hard during those days that one's soul might be forgiven and so to be forgiven will turn your mind to God.

To the right of this could be noted the cornice band of what later proved to be the top of the Oklahoma Masonic Temple. Soon we drew near an oddly: shap- ed grey metal covered building that listened in the sunlight, Big manly letters announced it as “Electric Gin".
