(Photo courtesy World Wide Photos) HARLEM'S POOR AND NEEDY FAMILIES RECEIVE FOOD SUPPLIES FROM LOCAL ORGANIZATIONS AND FROM THE CITY AT POLICE STATION, SCHOOL, & CLUB The Mayor's Committee for relief of needy families in the New York City area started its definite functioning on Friday, November 14, by the distribution of cartons containing sufficient food for a family of four for four days, from certain police stations throughout the city. In Harlem about twenty patrolmen, under Captain Frank Bradey, were assigned to the task of handling the distribution of food to more than 800 of the neediest families in Harlem, whose condition had previously been investigated by the police.

Eight Hundred Need Measures to Help the Watching the Distribution Left to Right Beh Welfare; Chief Inspect HARLEM RECEIVE ORGAN AT PO The Mayor's Committees in the New York City functioning on Friday, distribution of cartons contain family of four for four stations throughout the city. In Harlem about twenty Frank Bradey, were handling the distribution of the neediest families in had previously been invest hen was in charge of the distribution which started shortly after 9 o'clock, the baskets and boxes having been made up at the Bronx Terminal Market, 151st and Exterior streets, and delivered to the 32nd Brenton the night before. The Bronx street station house did not have sufficient room for the distribution so the food was transferred across the street to the gymnasium of the Harriet Beecher Store Junior High School for girls, P. 115, and placed upon a long row of tables, from which it was safely passed into the waiting hands of the long row of men, women and children. He lives weighed on an average weight of pounds, and some of the children were not strong to handle them. In these the policemen themselves as the poor folks with their hands to the street door, or called the men out of the line to the women and children. The men then returned and got her own boxes. Commissioner Mulrooney Present Police Commissioner Edward P. Mulrooney, Commissioner of Well fare Frank J. Taylor and Deputy, Chief Inspector John J. Hennessey came in about 12.30 to look over the distribution, and gave expressions of praise to Captain Brady and his men for the splendid manner in which they handled the situation. Each box or basket contained ample supplies of potatoes, onions, beets, carrots, cabbage, coffee, mar- caroni or spaghetti, and bread. Then as the people were being given their food, the local policemen put a carton containing a half dozen grade A eggs in the box. The policemen assisting in the distribution, besides Captain Brady and Patrolman McMahon, were Patrolman Martin McNulty, David Eagan, James Turner, William Hunter, Carl Jordan, William Atdiff, Edward Jackson, John Walsh, Ernest Olphin, Allen Benton, Martin Rhodes, Jackson, Olphin and Joidan were in charge of packing the eggs FOOD GIVEN AT P. S. 119 A vital and significant effort to relieve the present and distressful conditions was inaugurated two weeks ago by Miss Anna E. Lawson and her staff of teachers at P. S. THE Principal of P. S. 119, which is dispensing food to the poor. 119, 133rd street and Eighth avenue. Discovering that many of the children attending that school were in poor physical condition through lack of proper food, the teachers voluntarily donated a part of their salary toward a fund for the purchase of food supplies to be used in relieving temporarily the needs of families of their pupils. Many of the children, it was found, came to school without having had air breakfast and with no means to get lunch. These are taken care of in the school cafeteria each day, more than one hundred being given hot cocoa soup and sandwiches each day. Besides, shoes are gotten from the Board of Education for those children unable to get them otherwise, and many articles of clothing co- NEW YORK, N. Y., SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 22, 1930 tributed by children from families in better circumstances are given the poorer pupils. In the extra work entailed by this charity, Miss Lawson is being given the hearty cooperation of the assistant principal, Mrs. Charlotte von Meske, the entire staff of teachers and the larger girl pupils. The girls are divided into details, each group giving up their lunch period to service in the school cafeteria, serving the tables and then washing up the mugs and dishes used in serving the poor children. Food Sent To Families The substitute teachers, who are not regularly employed, and who report each morning in the hope of getting work, are also willingly giving of their time and effort in aiding the poor. Failing to get work, these teachers go into the cafeteria and assist in preparing the food for the needy and in serving it. The funds contributed by the teachers are used in purchasing bulk groceries for distribution to those families of the pupils which are discovered to be without food. Upon receiving such information, a bag containing food sufficient for two days for four people is sent immediately to the home. These bags contain bread, if the mother has to go out to work, or flour and baking powder if she remains at home, a small piece of cured or fresh meat, potatoes, canned corn, tomatoes, and speaches, spaghetti, coffee, evaporated milk, Karo cup, cocoa, sugar and oatmeal. After the bag is delivered, a visiti- teacher or truant other calls and makes a personal investigation then refers the family to either the police relief, the Salvation Army, or the Cotton Club, for permanent aid Starks, general manager of the Cotton Club, happened to pass one of the bread lines downtown, and was struck by the large number of men waiting to get food. Then he read in the daily papers, that of the various efforts to relieve the poor none were in Harlem. He took the matter up with his associates, and suggested that the Cotton Club could do something tangible toward relieving the Harlem situation. His associates agreed, and the funds necessary for the carrying out of the plan were authorized to be used out of the club receipts. No donations from other sources are accepted, the only contribution the employees and entertainers are permitted to make being their personal service each morning from seven to nine, when a substantial breakfast of beef or lamb stew and bread is served to all who come, without any distinction. No red tape attached to this effort, the only rule being first come, first served, until the day's allotment is exhausted. The Daily Food Supply The daily food supply consists of 90 pounds of lamb or beef; 50 pounds of onions, 125 pounds of potatoes; 50 pounds of carrots, 12 stalks of celery, all chopped up and made into a rich savory stew, which leading chefs in Harlem declare to be as tasty as any made anywhere in the city. Besides, 140 leaves of bread are used daily. All men who come are fed in the club at the small tables at which the club patrons sit. Women come with receptacles in which to carry food home for their families, and they are supplied in accordance with the number of their dependants. In some cases where mothers with (Continued on Page Two) Charged As Drug Seller, Jumps From Window To Death When Detectives Boyden, Robinson and Garvey of the 32nd Precinct cornered Jacob Griffin, 28, and two friends in Griffin's room at 39-41 West 127th street, Wednesday night, November 12, Griffin jumped from the window into the court below and was so badly hurt he died a few hours later in Harlem Hospital.

Mrs. Branch testified that on the 9th day of last August at her home address, her husband inflicted a severe stab wound on her arm, which caused her to remain in Harlem Hospital for several weeks. Mrs. Branch refused to press the charge, but when Police Officer Flinton of the 32nd Precinct told of the trouble that the case had given him, the woman was held in $100 bail as a material witness to await the action of the Grand Jury.

Walker, who was present to present the new Health Center to the people of Harlem; Health Commissioner Shirley W.

Immediately they were in place, the music changed into the strains of "America," and the entire audience stood while, that hymn was being sung, led by the school children, under direction of Mrs Robert L. Peace, in charge of the Glee Club from P. S. 119. After earnest invocation by the Rev. Dr. Brown, in which he specifically asked God's blessing on His Honor, the Mayor, and the civic government the children sang with splendid effects, two Spirituals, "Deep River" and "Heav'n! Heav'n!"

Health Center, its need and its purpose, prior to presenting Mayor Walker. Dr. Wynne said this is the first Health Center to be established in New York City, and perhaps in the entire country. He explained its purpose as being to help prevent the spread of disease by getting the service to the people. He pointed out that under his administration the infant death rate had been materially reduced from 50 of each 1,000, to a probable 11 per thousand for the current year. The death rate from diphthera, he said, is only one third of what it formerly was, and he expressed the hope that in a short while the dread disease will be entirely eradicated. Major Walker, upon being introduced, declared that when the hour approached for him to come to Mother Zion Church, he did not think it much of a day, reiterating to the steady, penetrating, chilly (Continued on Last Page) SOCIAL AND CLUB NEWS PAGE TWO Sterling Buffalo has returned from a visit to Berkley, Va.

Despondent, Man Shoots Self To Death John Simmons, 22 years old, who lived at 2459 Eighth avenue, had walked the streets of New York for more than one year in search of work. He was not particular as to the kind of work, but was willing to do anything to help him buy a few morsels of bread in order that he would not be a burden to his family or charity organizations. He did not want to beg, and was too honest to steal. As a climax to his despondency, he walked into the hallway at 2380 on Wednesday afternoon and shot himself through the head in the presence of his sister, Mrs. Daisy Wigfall, who lives at that address. He died instantly. An ambulance surgeon from the Harlem Hospital pronounced him dead. His aged mother, who lives at 2459 Eighth avenue, was too heartbroken to discuss, her son's death. Funeral services were held Sunday afternoon from the Easwicks' Undertaking Parlors. Parent-Teacher Meeting At H. B. Stowe Jr. High Parent-Teacher Meeting At H. B. Stowe Jr. High More than 850 parents enjoyed a delightful and profitable evening at the H. B. S. Jr. High School last Thursday from 8 to 9. Miss McEvoy, assistant principal, presided. In a clear and interesting manner, she explained to the parents of our youngest citizens, the courses offered in our school—the general, practical arts and commercial courses. She suggested that parents consider the natural bent or desire of their girls in the home, their success in studies as shown by report cards and the length of time which they desire the girl to spend in training, so that they may be ready to fill the blanks which they will later receive, stating their decision in the matter. Following, is the excellently rendered program: Songs, 7th year Group; dance, Junior 'Dancing Club'; "That Old Section Book," 7A3; song, 7B Group; Explanation of Courses; "Welcome to Armistice Day," 9B12. The audience was invited to take part in the Salute to the Flag, and the singing of "The Star Spangled Banner."

"Learn to Swim" Is Slogan at 137th St. Y The Physical Education Department is advocating 1930-1931 as "Learn to Swim" year. As a racial group, a knowledge of swimming is by no means as general among our girls and women as it should be, but we are improving. It is only so recently that we have had facilities. Indoor swimming pools are, after all, pretty new among us. No one we see is going to be hoped that we will swim—for safety, for health and for pure joy. If all goes well this will be the last week of the campaign. It is scheduled to close on November 24. But it is hard to think in any terms but those of campaign in the Branch during these busy days. Things are discouraging, on one hand, because so many friends of the work are unemployed and cannot give; they are encouraging, on the other hand, because so many friends are "standing by" even though they may not be as well able to help us in former years. Salem Tutt: Whiteney of "The Green Pastures." Adelaide Hall of "Brown Buddies," and Miss Pauline Ray, soprano, very generously contributed their services for the campaign on November 16.

"We Serve the Right Weight." The Week of November 22 Astrologically Considered By "THEARCHER" All those who have birthdates in this week will need to be careful not to deceive others or to be deceived by others. Neptune, the mystic planet, is in adverse position for the people of this week for a period of several years, and will bring about many changes in the social and vocational fields to those who do not try to think clearly. Those who can not remember very easily should not think that they are losing the mind, but should try writing down all of the important facts or ideas that they have. In fact, a memorandum book should be carried around by those of this group. Nothing should be bought on the time payment plan, and no money should be loaned or borrowed. None of this group should try to get rich quick or invest without very good judgment if they wish to keep the money that they have. A reliable bank is the only place that they should consider. Strangers and doubtful friends should be watched. The days that will require care in December are: 4, 8, 11, 14, 17, 23, 25. This paragraph could be re-read on these days with benefit to those who like to be prepared. These days are not to be used in any other month. Quarrels, will lose really worth while friends. The birthyear for November 22 will bring many opportunities for social and vocational gain to those who have ambition; and yet it is best to stick to those things that have already been started and to old friendships. Changes in the, employment will come to nearly every one, and can be made to advantage if good judgment is used. The year can be very good. The health and diet should be guarded. Those who begin another birthyear on November 23 will experience sudden changes in the domestic and family affairs. Those who try to be patient and thoughtful will not find the year so difficult. Financial affairs will require very careful judgment. Legal matters are adverse. Those who can believe that better times are coming will not regret the faith that they have, and will learn some worth while lessons. November 24 begins a hirthyear that will bring about changes in the domestic affairs for the women of today, although the men are affected too, but not to as great an extent. Those who have patience and tact will find the year very good and full of opportunities for progress. Changes in the employment can he made to advantage by those who use the best of judgment.' The hirthyear for November 25 will bring a need for very good Harlem's Poor and Needy Families Receive Food Supplies from City Continued from Page One) small children come, or aged or infirm persons, they are supplied specially with eggs and coffee. It is impossible, however, because of lack of facilities in the club's small kitchen, to supply coffee generally. This charity was started Tuesday, October 28, and will be continued through the winter. Last Xmas the club gave away more than 500 baskets to the needy. Plans have already been perfected for the giving away, of 1,000 Christmas, baskets this year. The distribution will be confined strictly to families where there are children, the names of which will be supplied by the police, the newspapers, and established charitable agencies. Clarence Toliver, Cousin to Dr. A. C. Powell, Is Dead After an illness of about two years, Clarence Toliver, of 600 St. Nicholas avenue, died at the Preserving at 3 o'clock, where he was takbyterian Hospital Sunday mornen a few weeks ago. The late Mr. Toliver was a nephew of Rev. A Clayton Powell, pastor of the Abyssinian Baptist Church, of this city, and brother of the late Attorney Harry Toliver of New Haven.

Church, in charge of the church work in Monrova, Liberia, West Coast, of Africa, with Mrs. Matthews and their daughter, Miss Juanna, reached New York on Thursday, October 13, enroute to their home in Washington, D. C. They were in Africa since 1928 and will remain in the United States for several months. judgment in financial affairs. Those who like to quarrel will lose good friends and money. Worthwhile opportunities will come to nearly every one, but it is best not to begin new plans, but to develop old plans and but to develop old plans and carry on old business. Patience and tact, as well as a regard for the health, will bring real gain. Accidents should be avoided. Those who begin another birthday on November 20 will find it possible to make worth while progress if the can avoid arguments and dissension in the domestic affairs. Those who are married should try to remain married, and those who are single should be very careful in dealing with the opposite sex. Letters, writings, and what they or others say, will be the dominant factor for those who begin another birthyear on November 27. These people should try to live so that no one else will have an opportunity to discredit or slander their lives, and even at that, there will be some unpleasant things that will have to be met because of the actions of others. Those who are employed should be patient and careful in the work, and not make the mistake of giving up the old job for another job. Regret will be certain. Legal matters will cause unhappiness and loss of honor. The people of today should think carefully, before they speak or write. November 28 begins a birthday that will bring about some change in the employment through the health or through changes in the personnel in the employment. The health will care, and those who live wisely, and avoid too much drain on the physical body will come through the year safely. The vibrations concern the lungs and chests of those of today. Good food, plenty of sleep and rest, and the wise use of the strength, will be better than any medicine to keep in good health. Those who are married will incur a change in the domestic status. The men and women of this date should consider the first paragraph well. Those who change jobs will be disappointed in the end. The readers who would like to know how to get ahead and to understand the planetary influences that are now affecting them, should send the full name, the birthday, month, year, hour and place with a stamped and self-addressed envelope and ten cents in stamps to Thearcher in care of The New York Age, 290 West 135th street, New York City. This paragraph should accompany the data. All communications are confidential. On Saturday of last week, a rainy, chilly morning, the club broke, all previous records by serving 353 people between 7 and 8:30, when the supplies were exhausted. 240 men ate at tables and 145 women and children received food to take home. Mr. Stark's gives his personal attention to the distribution, and is assisted by his brother Louis Stark who is manager of the kitchen department of the club; Harry ("Kid" Griffin, headwaiter, and Eddie Smith, office assistant to Mr. Stark. THE SALVATION ARMY Besides these agencies for relief, the Salvation Army, at its Harlam headquarters at 48-50 West 15th street, which is in charge of Adjutant Lambert Bailley, has for four weeks been serving free soup, coffee and colls, twice daily, from 9 to 11 a. m. and 9 to 11 p. m. as was told in this paper last week. The daily average number of poor people, men women and children, who are fed daily is about 1,200. There is no red tape, everybody who comes being given all the food they can dispose of. Where there are several in a family, large containers of soup and coffee are sent to their homes. An effort is being made to obtain large quarters where sleeping room can be found for unemployed homeless. Bad as conditions are in Harlem there, is much criticism of reputed utterances attributed to certain social service workers, who have been quoted in the daily press as stating that there are more than 35,000 unemployed in the community. This is believed to be an exaggeration of considerable proportion. The fact that men are seeing standing around various corners and in other localities, does not mean that they are unemployed. Many work at night or go to work at different hours during the day while a considerable number are in the Pullman-and dining car with layers that give them a day or two of leisure during a week. Another precondition, in order without justification, is the statement that a sizable number of prisoners are to be released on parole just before Christmas, and that the majority of them are Harlemites. The assumption that these men, unable to find employment will turn to racketeering is not believed to be justifiable. Conservative thinkers who have Harlem's good at heart express themselves as of the opinion that such rash and ill-advised statements are calculated to do irreparable harm. ```markdown ``` THE SALVATION ARMY Conditions In Harlem .....

Kracke and one of his deputies was shown recently in the promotion of the Rev. B J. Lowry to a forensic testimony. According to reports, the Rev. B Lowry, who resides at 527 Washington avenue, was in line for promotion, but the white man who was his immediate superior did not feel inclined to make the recommendation. A deputy insisted that the recommendation be made, and when it was not made, he took the matter up with Mr. Kracke, who gave instructions in no uncertain words that the Rev. Mr. Lowry be promoted, because he had merited it. This was done forthwith. Mr. Kracke is the Republican leader of the 21st A. D. and one of the powers of the party in this state. Since he has been Port Appraiser, much encouragement has been given our group to enter the Federal service under him. When ever he could make an appointment for temporary work until the appointee could pass the civil service examination, he has done so. Several well known Brooklynites have entered the service since he has been the appraiser. Among them are George Billups, a Spanish War veteran, and former Republica leader of the 16th A. D. Walter A. Peterson, a past aide ruler of the Elks: Baker Fowlkes, also a prominent Ek; Clarence Holland, Republica leader of the 17th A. D., and others. Holland played a big part in the election of ex-Assembler Robert K Story of the Assembly in the recent election. Story, the only Republican Assemblyman to be elected in Kings County, and by only 792 majority, admits that the colored votes elected him. This district has the largest Negro vote in the county, and yet from reports there were only about 1,500 registered Negro voters, when there should have been at least 3,000.

(Corner Avenue, Ave.) What was considered the biggest and best demonstration of the Knights of Pythias and Order of Courts of Calanthe (alphabetical) ever held in Brooklyn took place on Thursday evening, November 13 when the members of both branches of the order in Brooklyn and Long Island staged their mounster street parade and dance. The dance, which was preceded by a short program, was held in the spacious Crystal ballroom of the Elks' at 1008 Fulton street. There was such a crowd that the grill room was also used. Over 600 Sir Knights and Calanthes were in the line of march which was formed at Lefferts place and Classioi avenue. They were led by the famous 1st New York Brigade band of the Uniform Rank, of which Lieut. A. Phillips is the leader. This band defeated the crack O. V. Catto band of O. V. Catto Lodge of Elks of Philadelphia on October 26 in a contest in Manhattan. General Presston Cumberbatch, head of the uniform rank in the state, and his staff headed the parade. His chief aid was Col. Arthur Pope, commander of the first regiment, which is composed of the 1st, 2nd and 3rd battalions. This also includes the uniform ranks of the Order of Calanthe, the C. D. C. Because of the lateness of the hour of starting, the parade did not go the entire distance. From Lefferts place the marchers went to Franklin avenue, to Jefferson avenue to Throop avenue, to Herkimer street, to Bedford avenue, to Lefferts place. They disbanded at the Elks home. Here a short program was rendered, General Roland R. Johnson, who is 'grand lecturer of the order in this state, and also a member of the Supreme Lodge, was master of ceremonies United States Assistant. District Attorney Francis F.

S. with 376,000 members, with negotiable assets owned by the order throughout its supreme department of over $11,000,000, thus making it the largest Negro fraternity in the United States. While these organizations do much good, Mr. Giles asserted that he believed more good could be done through political activity. Dr. Johnson, the master of ceremonies, in his introductory remarks, took occasion to claim that he believed the fraternal organizations working as unit could be of more aid to the Negro. Mrs. Gertrude Brawner, a member of Naomi Court of the O. C. C. was also one of the speakers. She delivered a short but eloquent address on the Calanthes and woman's influence for good in the church, fraternal and political world. General Cumberbatch and Grand Worthy Councillor Bessie Johnson of the O. C. C., also delivered short addresses. Grand Chancellor Sir Lee Crawford, was expected to be present, but was detained by business of the order unstate. The speechmaking was, preceded by a fine musical program rendered by the Pythian Band. Among the numbers played were "Gloria" and the Overture from "Faust."

The music was provided by the orchestra of the Rexington musical band. The dance was attended by 500 persons prominent in the civic business and fraternal life of Brooklyn, Long Island and Manhattan.

The visit had been pre-arranged by the Brooklyn lodges-and courts, and Rockville Center was decided upon as the central point. The gathering assembled at the Shiloh Baptist Church The Brooklyn delegation was greeted by representatives from the seven lodges and guest courts on the Island W. Fletcher of Excelsior Lodge was chairman of the committee that was in charge of the delegation and Leon Butler was secretary. The visit which had been arranged by the committee that will entertain the 42nd annual grand lodge session which will be held in Brooklyn next year, has brought about a closer tie between the Brooklyn members and the Long Island members of the order.

The measures taken by a group of leading residents of Harlem, under auspices of the New York Urban Leap, give immediate and practical aid to unemployed members of the gr those families are suffering from lack The measures taken by a group of the leading residents of Harlem, under the auspices of the New York Urban League, to give immediate and practical aid to those unemployed members of the group whose families are suffering from lack of food and clothing, indicate a prompt and sensible appreciation of the serious nature of the present economic crisis. While the reports of the proceedings of the meeting held for organization last week may have overstated the case, as is the habit of daily newspaper writers, the situation is quite serious enough to arouse attention. While the number if unemployed in Harlem was stated at thirty-five thousand, it must not be accepted that all the men seemingly idle on the streets during the day are not working part of the time. That so large a number of idle, or better unemployed, wage earners, were "facing the blackest winter in the history of the Negro race in the history City of New York," may be accepted as a bit of oratorical emphasis added to spur on the activities of the workers, who had enlisted to raise funds and administer relief in those directions where it was most needed. Putting aside the tendency on the part of professional welfare workers to magnify the extent of their labors and so present the situation as darker than it really is, there remains enough want, and suffering caused by lack of jobs to go round, to justify all the relief measures inaugurated by the residents of Harlem. The most pressing cases of suffering for the bare necessities of life were met by the inauguration of the relief administered by the Mayor's Committee through the police of the various city precincts. This was rendered promptly and efficiently through the members of the force in each district, who were able to investigate the merits of each applicant and distribute food, and in some cases shoes and clothing, where they were most needed. The chief merit of this system of relief was the absence of red tape and overhead expense, the goods supplied being distributed directly to those in need of them. Many of the most pressing cases were met and relieved through this medium in the Harlem district. At one of the Harlem schools the principal and teachers contributed to distribute food to the families of those children who appeared to be in need, besides feeding the pupils who came to school without breakfast and who were not provided with lunch. Shoes were also furnished for the pupils in need of such equipment from a fund, provided by the Board of Education. One of the popular night clubs in Harlem gave meals to 385 hungry people last Saturday, it having begun that practice and kept it up during the whole week. The Salvation Army, at its Harlem headquarters has been serving meals to an average of twelve hundred people daily, without distinction of race or color. While most of the measures of relief so far projected are of a temporary nature, intended to relieve the situation until a more systematic scheme is adopted, it is gratifying to note that the residents of Harlem are alive to the needs of the situation and are banding themselves together to meet the emergency promptly and effectively. The committee formed to plan further measures of relief have decided to urge the property owners of Harlem to spend as much as possible in the improvement of their apartments and tenements, so as to furnish jobs for the jobless. Meanwhile, those who cannot make jobs or give jobs to those seeking work, can at least contribute a dollar or more to the fund to relieve the necessities of the jobless and their dependents. Without seeking to overdraw the exigencies of the case, there is room to employ all the possible measures of relief for suffering caused by unemployment and consequent destitution and suffering. It is well that the people of Harlem should do their bit to help the unfortunate of their number, though this is no reason why they should not receive the benefits of all the measures of general relief proposed under governmental auspices. Those who strive to help themselves deserve all the help extended to other members of the community. URBAN LEAGUE ON UNEMPLOYMENT. What the National Urban League has done and is doing to meet the economic crisis caused by the growth of unemployment among Negroes is succintly summarized in a pithy report of its activities prepared by T. Arnold Hill, director of its Department of Industrial Relations, and Ira DeA. Reid, director of its Department of Research and Investigations. In March 1930 it was estimated that the number of unemployed Negroes was not less than 330,000. In October a re-check of the figures showed that this number had increased to an unheard of extent. The state of unemployment was making the situation quite acute and reports from free employment bureaus in urban centers warranted the statement: that the present unemployment crisis is "the severest test of the urban and industrial adjustment of the Negro worker since the recent immigration." The larger centers of population, such as Detroit, Cleveland, Chicago, St. Louis, Philadelphia, Cincinnati and New York were affected more than the smaller towns having no basic industries. Figures covering twenty-five cities showed a decrease of 34.5 per cent in the number of available jobs for Negroes during nine months and an increase of 39.9 per cent in number of applicants over the same period for 1929. Unemployment was shown to be increasing in such local fields as Washington, Wilmington, Dell., Springfield, Ill., Gary, Minneapolis, Philadelphia, Buffalo and Detroit. In many cases it was reported that the whites were replacing Negroes in occupations hitherto filled by the latter. In some Northern cities white girls were taken on as janitors, elevator operators and as waiters, thus replacing colored men. In the South the whites were doing domestic and menial work hitherto performed by Negroes. Industrial plants that hired Negroes as unskilled labor in the North refused them employment in their Southern branches. In some cases the whites have taken the places of the Negroes at lower wages, thereby reversing the charge hitherto made that the Negro underbid white labor. Realizing that the present state of employment, so far as it relates to Negro labor, is due to more than technological causes, the Department of Industrial Relations of the Urban League, instituted a Vocational Opportunity Campaign. Fifty cities organized committees for this program, which was conducted during the week April 20 to 27. This effort, it is claimed, resulted in increased opportunities for Negro workers and gave stability to some uncertain situations. In the present emergency the Urban League is seeking to intensify its regular industrial service along the following lines: 1. Gathering data on employment conditions from the country at large to advise Negroes where and under what conditions work is available 2 Releasing to the public authenticated facts and figures on the employment problems of Negroes. 3 Securing business jobs for poor workers. phasing the necessity for better types of work than those commonly open to them in order that the growing number of trained young people may find employment commensurate with their capacity. 4. Interviewing leaders of business, and labor union officials, in order to secure better occupational advantages. 5. Cooperating with welfare organizations and provide to provide for the participation of Negro workers in programs agreed upon for all workers. 6. Advising Negro workers to improve the quality of service rendered by them. 7. Assisting in the movement to promote accepted vocational guidance standards where they can be made available to Negro youth. The League also included among its special activities the obtaining of emergency and part-time work and the participation of Negro workers in employment created by governmental agencies to help the unemployed. This is an important matter, which the League has done well to bring within its scope of its activities. The League will also serve on committees and commissions to adjust the unemployed, disseminate information on local employment conditions, provide temporary relief for families of the unemployed and serve as a clearing house for administering relief. The report emphasizes the fact that the problem of unemployment among Negroes is serious enough to demand special attention, and that, "to offset the inequalities usually found in work relationships involving Negroes and certain to appear during a crisis such as this, special attention will have to be given this group through official agencies functioning in the emergency." It is claimed that normally one out of every eight wage earners is a Negro, and that the race should receive its normal share of employment, both for its own welfare and for the restoration of business. The Urban League has shown in this survey of the unemployment situation, that it can play an important and useful part in helping to bridge over the emergency, until its aim is attained, that "the color line must be taken out of industry." A. REPUBLICAN HOPE. One of he few Republican candidates,ator Congers to survive the late Democratic landslide or tidal wave, whichever it was that struck New York City, the first Tuesday in November, was Mrs. Ruth Pratt. In addition to facing a strong Tammany candidate in the person of Judge Brodsky, Mrs. Pratt had a second opponent in the person of Heywood Broun, the well known columnist and writer, who ran on the Socialist ticket. Notwithstanding all this opposition, Mrs. Pratt won out by over six hundred plurality, in spite of the fact that Mr. Broun garnered over six thousand votes, due largely to his personal popularity as a champion of the under dog in every fight. The fact that Mrs. Pratt will return to Congress with renewed prestige as a woman representative of a large city district, re-elected in an off year, makes her to a large extent a big hope for Manhattan Republicans. She has the experience of one term in Congress and is in sympathy with the present Republican administration. She knows the desperate state of the Republican party in New York City as illustrated by the close figures by which she was returned for a second term. She knows what means are necessary to reorganize and rehabilitate Republicanism in this city. With this knowledge and experience, it seems that Mrs. Pratt, as a New York Representative, might establish some sort of sympathetic cooperation with the Republican administration in Washington so as to set in force a militant policy to aid in building up the Republican party in New York City. What is left of the party organization here is due solely to the efforts of such local leaders as Mrs. Pratt in her district, Representative L. Guardia in his, and such exceptionally strong local candidates as the Assemblyman elect in the Seventeenth of Brooklyn. Even such strongly Republican district as the Nineteenth and Twenty-first of Harlem lost their candidates for the Legislature as well as those for the new Municipal court judges, when a helping hand from the county organization might have resulted in added prestige and patronage for the party. The crying need of the Republican party in New York is for a stronger leadership looking to building up the party and restoring its vitality as a working political organization, instead of merely means for the unequal distribution of political patronage to a favored few. If Mrs. Pratt can help to bring about a new and virile leadership, she will have done well for the cause of Republicanism in New York City.

The New York Telegram recently indulged in a series of speculations on the subject. "Is Hoover Through?" It conveyed, without any too much delicacy that the popular verdict on the election The New York Telegram recently in bulged in a series of speculations on the subject, "Is Hoover Through?" It coneyed, without any too much delicacy that the popular verdict on the election COMMENTS BY THE AGE EDITORS ON SAYINGS OF OTHER EDITORS was something to this effect: "They say Hoover is through. He will go the way of Taft." The Telegram is not so sure that this will be the outcome, as it sagely concludes that a lot can happen in two years. It was even suggested that the President might even get mad some day and kick out the hack politicians and yesmen, "who have led him in two short years from the heights of a record popular vote to the depths of his recent election, defeat." The Telegram further said: If Hoover has the capacity to profit by bitter experience he can build up two years of splendid achievement on top of his past mistakes as President. All he has to do is stop 'compromising and begin to fight. The country is no less in need of a fighting leader today than two years ago when it overwhelmingly elected him as that very leader. The country is crying for leadership now. Hoover's friends say the fickle voters have turned against him and won't give him a chance. Absurd. No one need Under the slightly ironic heading, "When An Ethiopian is Not an Ethiopian," the Gary American referred to a definition in Webster's International in which the Abyssinians were described "as a mixed Hamito - Semitic people who ... belong fundamentally to the Caucasian division." This led to the following deduction: So an Ethiopian is not an Ethiopian because he has a strain of Jewish blood in his veins. By the sage reasoning an Aframerican would not be fundamentally a Negro because he has English, Irish, German or Spanish blood in his veins. And that immediately makes all but twenty per cent of us belong to some other race, for no more than twenty per cent of American Negroes, due to slavery and Southern gentlemen, are of pure African descent. But, in reality these same Nordic scholars who worked so diligently removing Ethiopians from the Ethiopian race because of a strain of Hebrew blood, find that in America the presence of any traceable amount of Negroid blood makes its possessor a Negro, Strange, but it's true. It seems to be the policy of your Nordic to claim everybody who achieves. After the Olympic games of 1924, Finland, who carried off many high honors, was described in the daily press as being a Nordic country, although she was scientifically classed with the Mongolian or yellow race. It was indeed regretful that the anthropologists could not, at the time of their classification, have forgeen Finland's future. Possibly in self-defense, many a Negro has for a long time been trying to prove to the world that Jesus Christ, David and many another Biblical character was a Negro. So it goes. Until Ethiopia is conquered by some strong European nation or indulges in too many of Western civilization's taboos, an Ethiopian will not be an Ethiopian. So the country which lends its name to a race, according to Blumenbach's accepted classification, is not people by members of that race Three cheers for Nordic logic! All this fine spun sophistry is attributed to the fact that Abyssina possesses considerable natural resources and has so far resisted European efforts at exploitation. A significant note of the recent campaign was sounded in the reasons assigned by the Portland Advocate why colored voters were going to vote for a Republican candidate for Congress, from Oregon. It recited his special service to the race as follows: Congressman Korell has demonstrated his interest in the man tarthest down in a number of ways. For example he is a member of an interracial group working to make the American Negro physically free from ennage, mentally free from ignorance; politically free from distranchissement and socially free from insult. It will be recalled by many that Mr. Korell voted for the passage of the. Dyer anti-lynching bill to make Lynching a federal crime when that measure, a few years ago passed the House by a two-to-one vote. In response to requests of some of his colored constituents, Rep. Korell introduced and secured the passage of a, special bill granting a lifetime pension to Mrs. Alice E. Holliday of Portland, Oregon. The bill which was introduced last November recently became a law. William Duncan Allen, a Portland young man, an instructor in the music department at Howard University, Washington, D. C., has been granted the privileges of the music department of the Congressional library at Washington through the courtesy of Mr. Korell. The privileges of the library as a rule are extended only to the members of Congress and other national officials. He actively engaged in the effort which secured larger appropriations for Howard University, largest school of its kind for Negro education. This shows that discriminating voters demand more than a party label to win their support. give him a chance, no one can give him a chance. He has the chance already and no one can take it away from him now. That is what the Presidency of the United States is. He is in the most powerful position in all the world. He can do what not even Kings and -Emperors can do. A President can govern, if he will. Hoover has the power. He has the mind. He has the good intentions. But it also takes courage. He has not shown courage in the-White House yet. If he had, he would not be on, the defensive as he is today. We would be glad to believe with the Telegram that Mr. Hoover was capable of taking the leadership of that, the country, demands and leading it into the paths of peace and justice. But so far he has failed to demonstrate either the will or the capacity to stand up for human rights and equal opportunity for all classes of American citizenship. That demands courage, as the Telegram says. Time will show whether Mr. Hoover possesses that essential gift. The following news item, taken from the Iowa Bystander, published at Des Moines, shows the increasing tendency of women to qualify for civil service: Mrs. Agnes Lee Hermansen, recorder of Polk county, announces this week the appointment of Miss Anna Mae Manuel as a deputy county recorder effective October 31. Miss Manuel has been employed in the county recorder's office since August 1. So satisfactory has been her service that Mrs. Hermansen said she was glad to recognize the efficiency of Miss Manuel by appointing her as a deputy recorder. Miss Manuel's appointment marks the first appointment of a colored deputy in the recorder's office. She is a graduate of North High school where she finished with high honors, being president of her home room, a member of the student council, president of her sewing class and chairman of several committees. After graduating from North High, Miss Manuel attended the State University of Iowa for two years. She resides with her mother, Mrs Ruth Moore, at Des Moines, Iowa. The action of the county recorder in recognizing the ability of one of her own sex is calculated to upset some prevalent notions: as to feminine failings in that particular. The widespread popularity of card playing either as a pastime, or more often a fad or craze, was illustrated by an editorial plea in the Northwest Monitor of Minnesota for "A Bridgeless Week." It said: "I wish someone would declare a bridgeless week from November 10 to 1/1," remarked a Community Fund worker the other day. The speaker, a woman drive captain, had been experiencing some difficulty in getting solicitors to help carry on the work of the drive. In many cases the excuse had been, Oh, I have several parties that week. I'm sorry, but I just haven't the time." This year, in response to a greater need, the Fund quota is considerably higher than it has been in recent years. Consequently the need for workers who can give time and enthusiasm to their laborers is also increased. Where are those workers to be found? Strangely enough many of the most earnest and faithful solicitors are to be found among persons already pressed with work necessary to their own livelihood or the welfare of their families. This is admirable but it should not be the rule. It is only a fair apportionment of things that those who are supported by the efforts of others and consequently have a greater proportion of leisure should spend more time in the service of those who need. It is a sorry mal-adjustment of values which places parties and entertainments before needed work for the good of the community. The Minneapolis editor sagely concluded that a bridgeless week would not be a bad thing for the community, regardless of the demands of the auction or contract game. Under the heading of "The Reaper Comes," the Birmingham Reporter paid a moving tribute to two Alabamians who recently ended their labors. It said: The passing of Prof. E. C. Roberts of Tuskegee and Prof W. J. Echols of Birmingham within a few days of each other reminds us forcefully that the Grim. Reaper takes the strong and the fair, as well as the weak and withered in the harvest of souls. The race in Alabama had no stronger men in worth and character than these two educators, and, certainly, none in whom there was posed more confidence as leaders in thought and examples of upstanding thrift and integrity. Mr. Echols had forsaken the teacher's desk for business, but with an ever apparent longing for his first love, while Mr. Roberts fell in the harness and on the pull as his devotion for his work ever indicated it as his big desire. To know these two men that were similar in character, similar in strength of intellect, similar in undaunting courage and forceful man- THE AGE READER'S FORUM Communications addressed to the Editor will be printed in this column if they bear the name and address of the writer.

There was also in them a similarity of ambition to do race building, without violating manhood principles, an earnest craving to be useful and the embodiment of the fine sympathies which interweave the mesh of kinship in -the souls of all mankind. They were the type of stalwarts that always stood firmly in the vanguard of race leadership and the types of integrity by which men swore. Having been prominently connected with every movement that concerned the progress of the race for years, these men will be missed in the councils and in the line of leadership duty. That is the type of men who are contributing steadily to the upbuilding of the race in the South, as well as in other sections of the country. It is fitting that their labors should be appreciated. Charging the Governor of Georgia with "A Misuse of the Pardon Power," the Atlanta Independent boldly stated the case as follows: The commuting of the death sentences of Wayman and Harvey Bradberry to life imprisonment is an abuse of the pardon power and a travesty upon justice. The travesty sets up the law line in law enforcement. Three white men (Wayman and Harvey Bradberry, brothers and India Thanks The Age For Aid To Country Editor of The New York Age: On behalf of Mahatma Gandhi and the entire Indian population throughout the world, together with friends and sympathizers, I beg to offer my sincere thanks for the work which you have done through your newspaper for the great and noble cause of India and the entire world. While the New York Times kept on publishing false and biased reports which they received through their correspondents, The New York Age, through its own correspondent, published the truth and nothing but the truth of the happenings in India. Readers of the Times who formed their opinion from reports published therein are not "thiggers," for they should know that the British objected to the truth coming from India, and to be sure of securing false publications they censored the Indian press and all other news relating to the incident. When Mr. Webb Miller of the United Press endeavored to dispatch the truth, the British government objected to it and he had to write and send it through the mail. But after this, truth was published, we read that Mr. Miller had left India, whether ordered out by the British or left of his own accord, we are not sure. Time and over again the New York Times has impressed us through their based correspondents that the princes and the educated class in India were not in sympathy with Mahatma Gandhi and the Nationalist movement. The princes have now left the censored zone, and since they reached France the news has come to us that all the Indian delegates have agreed that they are on their way to England to discuss nothing but dominion statutes and frame such a constitution. The truth will always come forth at the end and I do not know how the editor and publisher of the Times feel about the moral standing of the correspondents they employ. A crooked man today in this world does not feel ashamed of himself after he is exposed. He feels that he lives in a world that does not warrant shamefulness. Mahatma Gandhi will rectify this as soon as opportunity affords him. The Mahatma's first aim is to destroy the power of the sword upon which western civilization is built and replace it with "Truth," and "Love," bringing every man to that equal platform which God intended him when He created him in His Own Image. India is thinking of the millennium and she cannot work towards that end and succeed as long as she is being ruled by foreigners. The ruling nations have refused to work towards the end of fulfilling the Will of the Father and they have been preaching Christ to the entire world without any effect for the last two thousand years. In words to the peoples of the subject colonies and to the entire world they extol Christ, and their lips, overflow with words of praise and hope in Christ. In their action they prove to be the most deadly enemy of the Savior. They are anti-Christ in everything they do, but Christlike in almost everything they say "Actions speak louder than words." Mahatma Gandhi is going to rid the world of this and bring it to that civilized standard where all men alike will tell the truth and be trusted to love and peace, thereby enjoying in fullness of the time the "Millennium." I. sincerely pray and hope that through your clean paper you will continue to fight for the right, which is always right, and assist in bringing about the millennium to be received by our own generation. G. MADHO SINGH, New York City. Father LaFarge Thanks Editor of The New York Age: Just a line to express my appreciation of the generous publicity given to my radio talks in The New York Age. I hope that they may at least have some effect that I intended to arouse in the conscience of Raymond Cooper, brother-in-law) planned the murder of, and印加 Dock Elder and wife, Negroes-motive, robbery-in-oconee County several months ago. They were indicted, convicted, and sentenced to die in the electric chair at Millidgeville tomorrow, and would have been executed as the law 'directed, if not for the interference of the Governor. The action of the Governor in this instance, in our judgement, is a travesty on justice and a serious interference with law enforcement. This was a case of cold blooded murder without a single mitigating circumstance, for the sole motive of robbery. Governor Hardman may think that he is saving the white youth from disgrace and crime, but he is seriously mistaken; and he is licensing the young white man to believe if he kills a Negro, he may escape adequate punishment. This policy in the end will make criminals of good white boys. If they felt that the killing of a Negro was murder in the same degree as the killing of a white man, and that the law does not tolerate murder from any person or in any degree, there would be less murderers among the white youth of this age. Editor Benjamin J. Davis of the independent rightly insisted that law enforcement must be color blind or else anarchy will result. Anarchy is already a condition that confronts the South." our white friends on the situation; as well as to let, the Negro group know how I, for my part, feel about it. With every good wish, I am, faithfully yours. JOHN. LaFARGE, S. J. New York City. Editor of The New York Age. In your issue of the present, you comment upon the matter of a certain text book which characterized the race, following emancipation, in a rather uncomplementary light. Over against such characterization I desire to record the words of the late Colonel Walter H. Taylor of Virginia, Adjutant to the staff of the Southern hero, General Robert E. Lee. It was my good fortune to have been a close and warm friend of Colonel Taylor, as fine a gentleman as ever lived. I have an autographic copy of his book, "General Lee," which he presented to me some years ago. In this book he says of the Negro: "It should be recorded of the Negroes of the South that during those four years of war and its distressing consequences they were universally loyal, and their conduct in all respects admirable. Let the fact be noted that while the white men went to the front, the women and children were left a home and on plantations, with Negroes, without fear or apprehension; and although of the same racial instinct and passions of the Negro of today, so far as my knowledge and observation enable me to speak, not a single case of assault was ever recorded in the South during that period. "Here is cause for reflection for the philanthropist: The Negro under a condition of servitude, acknowledging his subordination to his superiors, is well mannered and contains himself within the bounds of perfect and unfaltering respect for the white race, even when no one is near to make him afraid." A people must be judged by its best representatives. The men of the old South, of the calibre of Colonel Taylor, were unanimous in giving forth the identical testimony as above noted, with respect to the large body of sober and industrious colored people who emerged from the other side of the war between the states GEORGE F. BRAGG, Jr. Baltimore, Md. Nov. 13, 1930. A Travesty on Justice Editor of The New York Age: We are in the midst of observing Armistice Day, recalling recollections of that sad happening, with all its horrors and loss of lives and the destruction of property, which attended that terrible slaughter of thousands of our brave boys who quitted the shores of this country at the clarion call to arms to repulse a foreign foe. Among the rank and file of the many regiments that crossed the Atlantic in defense of this Republic may be found men who are still fighting the battle of life in the Pullman service as Pullman porters. While they deserve a better fate, and a riker recompense, yet they bow in humble submission to their country's decree, thereby showing a loyalty and patriotism which transcends all other forms of devotion to their native land. It does seem like a travesty on justice when many of our brave warriors returned from the World War and witnessed scenes of barbarity on their race that showed a poor reward for their labor in defending American fortunes from a foreign enemy. I should bring the blush of shame to the cheek of every white man of this Republic who sat silent and allowed those outrages to go unappalled. Did God is neither dear nor alopecy, and out of the dead adores of the skin victims of the blood-thirsty mob will rise a retribution which will be paid by this nation that will probably stagger the world in its severity. The scales of justice will then balance themselves and our soldier boys will come into their own. MANHATTAN AND BROOKLYN RELIGIOUS ACTIVITIES EMANUEL A. M. E. CH. The annual reunion and class leaders contest; marking, the fourth anniversary of the entry into the present beautiful edifice, 37 West 119th, street, was begun November 11 and closed November 14. An appropriate program was rendered on the closing night, E. W. News, master of ceremonies. The senior and junior choirs finished excellent music. After the vending of the program the audience repaired to the basement which was tastefully decorated where was served a palatable supper, plus punch, cake and ice cream. Sunday at a high day. Despite the element weather a good congregation was present at the morning service, at which time the Revi D. L. Ruffin Nichols of Charleston, S. C., preached from the text, St. John 3:16, "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten son, whoever believed in Him, should pensh, but have everlasting Here are a 'few excerpts': "For God so loved the world." This is a plain, straightforward, unequivocal statement. Jesus, Christ, a peculiar character, born in a manger, son of God, unchangable, for with Him there is no variability, neither shadow of turning, for "He is the same, today, yesterday and forevermore, the same God, the same God." He said of himself, "Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my word shall stand forever." He was a positive teacher. If you rob the human soul of God, you rob it of the greatest thing it can have. The Christian idea of God is the sweetest concept of the human mind. Nicodemus was ridiculed by some because he went to Jesus by night, but this stands to his everlasting credit, for he went to Jesus. "God so loved the world"—Why are we here?—Because of God's love—how indiscriminate, how personal, how inclusive. Why did He love the world? How did He obey that man? How did He permit His son to lay down His life for me. Life—How we love it, cling to God knows the value of life. The devil叭 one occasion said, that man叭 one occasion said, that life叭 When we reach heaven, then and only then will we realize the value of life and the extent of God's love. When he gave me His son He gave me a portrait of Himself: God loves us and we ought to love Him supposedly, but things as they bear the moral impression of their creator God's love—its object: that all men might live forever. Belief, faith in God; believe that Jesus is God; believe in Him as your personal Savior. Come unto Him. Provision has been made for all. Room in heaven for all. To all who believe God will grant a personal revelation of Heaven. The sermon was lucid, forceful and convincing. Dr Nichols will deliver his parting message next Sunday at Emmanuel at 11 a.m. at the office officers and members extend heartfelt thanks to all who in any way contributed to the success of the anniversary. BETHEL A. M. E. CHURCH Despite the inclement weather many were in attendance at the early morning prayer meeting which was led by class leader J Harrison. At the 11 o'clock service those who present were delighted by the beautiful singing of T Pinkney, tenor soloist, who sang "The Prodigal Son." The scripture lesson was read from the 7th chapter of the Gospel of St. Luke. Rev E A. Dale, minister with Sunday day school lesson used for his subject, "The Believing Centurion," a sermon on Faith. At the conclusion of the sermon one person was converted. Dr. Wm. Lleyd Imes, pastor of St. James Presbyterian Church and his junior choir were guests of the church school at 3:30 p.m. Dr. Imes delivered eloquently the address on "Righteousness on the Church." Calling Ritime, Ruthmeit and Righteousness, he adhired a parallel using facts derived from the knowledge of the fourth dimension. Other participants of the programs were Mrs. Everee Young, alto solost, and a reading by Jones.

Class night Tuesday at 8 p. m. pae, meeting Friday 8 p. m. ST MARK'S M. E. CHURCH Despite the inclement weather a fair congregation was out to bear Dr. Alexander P. Shaw of Los Angeles, Cal., at the morning service. His text was taken from Mark 1-21. He beautifully portrayed the beauty and obedience of the life of Jesus, and that life is Glow Jesus when every day is a bright but when conditions become disengaging they by the wayside. That God desires us to be willing to sacrifice when the burden is heavy as we will. The path is smooth. He further said that it is most church is 'successful', but it must hold on when the storms come. He told in an interesting manner of the inspiration that came to the Disciple John to write the message of Jesus. The ushers sermon of Baptist Church was held at 3 p.m. at our church. Prof. Kelly Miller was the principal speaker at the lycme hour. GRACE CH. OF HARLEM Sunday morning was rally day at Grace Church, and in spite of the congregation was present. Dr. A. Garner pastor did his text from Palmieri 023. Search me, God and know my heart. In an eloquent sermon he told the congregation that they must first search their own hearts before we, condemn the hears of our fellow man, because often the word "hears" is used. Leon Martin, 357 Edgecombe avenue, accepted the fellowship invitation and was received into the Congregational Church. A goodly sum was realized from the which has been extended.

The pastor, the pastor and church went over to Salem to fill an engagement on their anniversary program. The services were very singular. Bishop Lawson preached from Isaiah 22:11-12. In the church, the priest probed the Bible is being fulfilled and the fast approach of God's Kingdom. The stone which Daniel saw cut out of the mountain without hands is still to suture the image and grind it into a stone. Wednesday, the junior pastor was successful in rendering a mutual program which was inspiring and edifying to the audience. Thursday, the Bible class in psychology was taught in the chapel by the pastor. The lecture was sublime on the "Ser WHERE TO GO TO CHURCH pent" as is spoken of in Genesis. He proved beyond the shadow of doubt that it was not a real serpent as we see crawling on about us. Friday, the services were good, though not largely attended, due to the inclemency of the weather. In spite of the rainy weather the Saturday night prayer meeting went on; the Sunday morning meeting was held; the Sunday night services were at a high spiritual ebb. The pastor spoke from Matthew 18:28. His message was centered around this thought. We are all debtors to the debt we owe to acknowledge our sinful state and yield our hearts to God." If you want to witness a meeting where the Spirit is felt through songs as are the preaching as are welcome to our doors stand open the whole year round. 52-54-56 West 133rd street.

CHURCH With the advent of a glorious Sabbath, Rev H. W. Stanley was greeted by a large number and sad smiling Seals. He preached a wonderful sermon from Matthew 14:26, subject, "Jesus Walking on the Sea." Among the many interesting points which he cited in his dis- course were these words spoken with such validity that they who head were speechless. Christ the sea is an incident that stands alone and the coerced acts of Jesus, as a peculiar manifestation of His character and dealings. In general Christ's miracles were founded on the principles of relieving human want and misery, while also displaying Divine power. But here the object was diffeled appear from a careful consideration of the circumstances it had been a day of self-revelation on the part of Jesus. He had also relieved, by a miraculous increase of food, the hunger of five thousand men, thus demonstrating to the people at large that He was at least a messenger of God, and more immediate disciples, however, it was necessary that He should now manifest Himself in a character of more unquestioned greatness. It was important that they should regard Him not merely as one come from God but as one closely connected with the Deity, whose hensible indeed but undeniable. In this character, therefore, he exhibited himself to the disciples. In conclusion he urged us to intercourse with the Father in Heaven in prayer and fasting, and in doubling this example we may instantly lead public lives innately and usefully Conversing SECRETARIAL Lincoln School 201-209 West 125 St. N.Y.C Special Civil Service Classes Secretarial Commercial Languages EuroLL For The PALL TERM Catalog on request - Phone Mon. 3040 Evangelist GEORGE E.

Rev. John J Hickey, pastor of St. Joseph's Church at the lower end of Sixth avenue, preached a most eloquent sermon on the civilizing influence exercised by the church founded by our Savior, Jesus Christ. In glowing language and vivid pictures he brought to the minds of his hearers a clear idea of the degradation into which even the most advanced nations were sunken at the time Christ was born into the world, and then the world was had degradation gradually abashed as the work of the church advanced from one nation to another. Opposition and persecution even to the death have always attended her path yet inspired by the promise made by her: 'Founder to be always with her up to the end of her life, she has kept at her task for the last 20 years and is today as full of life and vigor and success as ever in her history. Father Hickey emphasized the fact that in sanctifying a nation the church applies her efforts to the individual. And he be so persuaded, to follow the same method, to make use of the same means, namely the seven great sacraments, beginning with baptism.' For the benefit of the church treasury, which in these hard times have suffered considerably, St Charles opened a fair in the auditorium on Monday November 10 and carry on for two weeks. That evening the two program of music and several speeches, among one by Municipal Justice Elect James S Watson Ten beautiful booths have been erected on which the ladies of the parish have piled heaps of pretty articles and thus they hope to captivate the eyes of hostiles as well as the clockwork of the city in the fair is being manifested in several other parishes of the city.

BASKETBALL WITH THE RENAISSANCE FIVE Despite the copious showers of rain that fell all day Sunday, a fairly large crowd showed up at the Renaissance Casino to see Ripley's Washington Palace Club do battle with the colored champions. Shortly after the game got under way Ripley scored on a long shot. Right here and then the Renaissance launched their offensive and so swamped the Washington outfit that the game did not hear thesemblance or a contest. It seemed as if the "Rens" had a chained ball shooting at a charmed circle for they rarely missed but apparently the boys did not want to look so good for with the score standing 17 to 2 Sloum and his boys began the back step and towed with the boys from the historic capital. It was quite evident that they intended to "carry" their opponents but "there's many a slip twix the cup and the lip." The champions, slipped and slipped and it was more good fortune than otherwise that they were able to limp home a bare point ahead.

State Howard-Lincoln Game Attracting National Interes Washington, D.C.—Interest in the Howard—Lincoln game at Washington on Thanksgiving Day has grown in spite of other grindron clashes that have developed to huge proportions. A special train has been chartered by the Bronxman to bring a crowd from Chicago and the midwest. The Interstate Latters are again running its "Queen of the Classic" special from New York, and judging the applications for tickets received, from other sections of the country, the attendance this year will approximate 30,000. Many social functions have been arranged for the entertainment of the visitors. An alumni reception will be held in the University of Pennsylvania. The Student's Council will act as host in the University During Hall to student guests. The beautiful architecture of the new masseuse hall, the Lincoln Hall, alongside, and Murray's Castle, have all been booked at the Brinkswyn new recreation. Numerous private parties to popular in other towns are being arranged. The game won't have consolate promise. Unlike but not less, the game will not impress the players with the excitement of the unfolding. That will be a concern to both teams, present for a big score, and the confidence and a wish to win expressed by Captain Mack of Jenson, French, Ashby, Mourning, Har- s, Kane, Sydnor.

Pappy Ricks covered himself with glory, such as it was, and was responsible for pulling the fat out the fire more than once. The last five minutes of play was a mad scramble for supremacy as the teams alternated with the load with close-like regularity—Renaissance, Washington, Renaissance, Washington—and never more than one or two points to the good at that.

White neither team thus far the season has shown championship calibre, both have to their credit derivative victories. After a 44-6 score against Livingstone, Howard beat North Carolina State following the Eagles defeat of A. & T the team that last Saturdays provided one of the seasons greatest upsets in defeating Humpton. Off with a good start and a momentary slump, the Lions attempted for their slaughter by the Morgan Bears in holding the Sea-Siders at the Yankee Stadium. Lancolin's smashing attack and Howard's aerial will challenge the defensive strength of both teams, and on the offensive may provide the thrills for which the game has been famous in former years. The management of the classic has always catered to the comfort and convenience of the crowd. When the National League Ball Park at Philadelphia was found to be too small, the game was shifted to Shibe Park. In Washington, on some of the commercial outings in building the Howard stadium which comfortably accommodates 15,000, the game was treated to the Griffith stadium with a constant number of bowers to stretch and control stand to the seatings in the event of a crowd.

The first was against the Collegiate, who suffered their worst defeat yet and the second was against the All Stars, who in seven years have never had two touchdowns scored on them. The first half saw all of the scoring for the All Stars. Bouldering the Collegiate with a variety of passes, they scored two touchdowns in each quarter. But in the second half, the Collegiate completely outplayed their rivals, outgunning them in first downs and showing them a passing attack swailing their own. For the Collegiate, Artist scored both touchdowns with a very flashy pass. Hall to Graham which the long rang end took on the run after polling in the hall with his finger tips, scored the extra point. A patched-up team took the field with Stanley a newcomer on end in place of Leonard and Jackson at full back for Dunlap who was out on account of injuries. Hansboro was at quarter back. But the stellar plays of the game were contributed by Tuppance, the diminutive quarterback who replaced Hansboro and showed some clever work in handling the team. It was Tuppance who plunged, ran, received passes and inspired the Colleagues to do their best. The playing of Whitlock at tackle surpassed his former performances to such an extent that he is being considered as a starter. Graham played a superb end and despite has being knocked, out twice in the game, after which he was reeled by King, the tallest man on the squad. King's height stood him in good stead when he intercepted a pass in the last few minutes of play. Jackson surprised his team mates with his ball carrying and once intercepted a pass and ran fifteen yards before being forced out of bounds. Brackett and Mical played their usual steady hard game. Hill and Artest in the backfield were particularly bright $^{80}$ on the offence and the defense. Hill doing most of the kicking and passure. The crowd which packed the field declared the Collegiate the best team seen in that section.

S. Atlanta, Ga.—The American Negro has achieved in a few generations what it usually takes centuries for racial group to attain, according to Hon. Graham Ballenden, head of the native affairs' department of the city of Johannesburg, South Africa, who is on his first visit to America studying the condition of Negroes in this country. Said he: "I have been especially interested in the educational progress which American Negroes have made, as I have seen it at Tuskegee Institute and other of your Negro schools. There is only one word of warning that I would venture to offer, namely, that in the pursuit of higher education for Negroes consideration should be given also to the great mass who cannot hope for this special privilege, but desperately need practical training for efficiency and success in the common pursuits of life. It is not a question of neglecting either, type of education, but of making proper provision for both and or recognizing that in their respective places they are equally valuable and important. "For the American Negro, in general, I have only words of congratulation and of hope. As contrasted with conditions in Africa, the American situation is certainly a hundred times more favorable to the race. Nor is the future over here shadowed by any intolerable or extremely difficult problems, so far as I can see." W. Va. State College In American Council Institute, W. Va.—Official communication has been received by President John W. Davis that West Virginia State College has been admitted to membership in the American Council on Education. This recent recognition places the institution in the society of America's greatest colleges and universities, and will enable the college to cooperate with the Council in interesting cooperative experiments in higher education. : --- IN WOMEN'S REALM NEWS ABOUT WOMEN Ruth R. Dennis, Editor BEAUTY AND HEALTH By OLIVIA D. TUCKER Pharmacist and Chemist Bunions and Enlarged Toe Joints There is nothing more painful or more annoying than a bunion or enlarged and, inflamed toe joint. Bunions not alone are pain- ful, but they are disguring, spoiling the shape of the shoe. Yet they can be relieved permanently and their appearance completely concealed. Bunions are produced by various causes, sometimes narrow, pointed shoes, sometimes short and pointed stockings, while again they may be hereditary. A partial dislocation of a joint must occur when the great toe, bent by the footwear, is forced to overlap the next toe. It is the resulting inflammation and swelling at this joint which gives the foot an uncoath form and, under pressure of the shoe, causes the severe plain. There are different devices which can be worn to straighten the crooked toe, whether it is overlapping or underlapping, bringing it back into the position and correcting the cause of the bunion. This, together with the best care in the selection of shoes and stockings, can relieve a great deal of misery.

"At the other extreme of life beyond' the allotted age of man, a wonderful showing has been made by the women workers of the world. In the hands of "At the other extreme of life, beyond' the allotted age of man, a wonderful showing has been made by famous workers of the world. In the decade from seventy to eighty years of age may be mentioned among many others, the following brilliant records of achievement: Catherine Esther Beecher, clever daughter of a still more celebrated father, when 71, wrote "Woman's Profession as Mother and Educator." with views in opposition to Woman's Suffrage Anne Jemma Clough presided over Newnham College until her death at seventy-two, and Sophia Smith, at 74, founded Smith College, the first woman's college in New England Anna Charlotte Bolta when 70, helped to establish Barnard College (here in New York City) and her home until her death at 71, was a favorer of literary and art circles Martha Finley, the popular writer for girls and author of the "Elise" and "Mildred" Books, wrote steadily until 70 years of age, Margaret E. Sangsier, the beloved pretess, wrote her verses until her death at 74. The next decade, from 80 to 90 years, contains many marvelously young old women whose vigor seemed unabated although the sands of time were running low. Here are found Harriet Beecher Stowe at 84 active to the end; Gertrude Mara retired from the stage at 71 but for ten years more delighted her friends with her beautiful singing, with her voice extending with ease over three octaves. When 87 years of age Florence Nightingale was signally honored by Edward VII, who conferred upon her, the first woman ever to receive it, the Order of the Garter. The famous blind poetess, Fanny Crosby, died in 1915, when 95 years of age. She celebrated her 90th birthday with poems composed by her for the occasion, and continued to write up to a short time before her death. Mr. Dorland gives many other references but I think in this brief word the above references are enough to convince those who may be discouraged and disappointed because they have failed to realize their dreams of accomplishment that there is yet time. Don't envy youth—encourage them and keep faith in yourself and God and work out your own destiny. WOMEN APPEAL TO GOVERNORS TO STOP LYNCHINGS Atlanta, Ga—The twenty-one Southern white women representing eight states, who last Saturday issued a public statement denouncing lynching and repudiating the claim that it is necessary "as a defense of womanhood," followed up their statement Tuesday with a telegram to the governors of thirteen states, calling upon them to take vigorous steps for the complete suppression of such crimes. Pledge Cooperation The message was signed by all the members of the group, who pledged themselves to cooperate with public officials in support of the law, and was sent to governors of Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Florida, Georgia, the Carolinas, Virginia, Tennessee, Kentucky, Missouri, Arkansas and Indiana. The telegram in part was as follows "We, a group of white women drawn from religious, educational and political groups assembled at Atlanta to consider shocking resurgence mob violence during current year, appeal to you as chief executive of your state. Decrease in lynching noted during past ten years ALL ROADS LEAD TO SMALLS PARADISE ENTERTAINMENT Dining & Dancing --- EALM Daily Happenings Among the Girls At Hunter College By RUTH FORD OF SENIOR CLASS Economic Status of Negro "Peonage still exists today," said Gladys Stoner, a Negro student, in her address on the "Economic Status of the Negro" before the International Student Association last Friday. Miss Stoner began with a survey of conditions after the Civil War. She spoke of the competition between the freed Negro and the unfreed white population which led in some cases to the confiscation of property owned by Negroes and the migration of Negroes to the North. Illiteracy in the Negro led to many evils in the South, some of which will still exist, according to Miss Stoner. Negroes unknowingly signed contracts which bound them for life to work with little or no compensation, she claimed Peonage, whereby a Negro receives credit instead of money, is prevalent, continued "Miss Stoneer in the General Affairs the Negro in the South Miss Stoner also called attention to the pine camps where the Negroes spend their, whole life in everlasting debt. Farming, until Booker T. Washington established schools for training in agriculture, was not profitable because of the lack of science, stated Miss Stoner. The North offered still less to the Negroes, 50 per cent of whom were unskilled, according to Miss Stoner's statistics, for the Negro was not recognized in labor uni- therefore, she continued, in 1919 the Negroes organized the National League on Urban Conditions. The business most profitable to the Negro, Miss Stoner stated, is that which caters exclusively to the Negro, such as Mme. C. J. Walker's beauty establishments. Insurance companies, banks, funeral directories, and the new C. M. A stores are other businesses carried on by the Negro, added Miss Stoner, who claims that the reasons so mazy Negro banks have failed is the lack of capital to make sound investments To solve this economic problem, Miss Stoner concluded, the Negro must become class conscious and lose his race consciousness. POET'S CORNER Understanding Because the rain is falling hard today And window panes with tears are glistening bright I feel a little sad—and yet I know That God is looking after things all right. Because a cry of pain upon the air Bespeaks a woman's anguish in the night. I feel a little sad, and yet I know The morning sun will dazzle her with light. Because I meet with, sorrow now and then And tremble never stays quite out of sight. I feel a little sad, and yet I know They're just the things that challenge me to fight. Caroline E. Sloat Homely Philosophy Georgia Douglass Johnson After You Fail, What? After you fail then comes the real test of character. Do you double your determination to succeed after every 'rebuff or do you slump down and despair? Failure tries a man out, it separates the wheat from the chaff, the strong from the weak. Can you laugh in the face of failure and plug on? If so, for you then there is no failure—the struggle itself is success. sions or benefits available for the widows and dependent mothers or children of deceased world war veterans who were honorably discharged, from the service.

By RING LARDNER THINGS SEEN, HEARD AND DONE AMONG PULLMAN EMPLOYEES MR. SCUDDER MOVES AGAIN There is something almost heroic—certainly it is nothing less than admirable—in the way these Pullman superintendents accept the mandates of their organization. Take, for instance, the case of Superintendent Daniel F. Scudder. Since 1926, Mr. Scudder has been a superintendent in the New York district. Of course, he has not been a head superintendent since then, having only been promoted to that position in the last six or eight months. But previous to that time he oocupied the position of first assistant chief in this district. Before coming to New York, he occupied a similar position in the Detroit district. Following Mr. Scudder's service, peregrinations, during the two past decades, we find him serving Pullman interests in New Jersey, Philadelphia, Washington, Detroit and, finally, in America's great city—New York. "I shall go." This comment was made without any apparent regret at having to leave one of the largest districts in the Pullman circle, which is unusual with these officials. He did say, however, that during his four years in New York he had found many things to admire in the cordial relations that existed between the official per- Now moving from one environment to another, especially when the moving comes in a sort of serial order, is nothing snort of heroic fealty. As one rustic philosopher once said, when asked why didn't he move to the upstairs instead of remaining in the valley. No, one ever moved from one environment to another that he didn't lose something by the change." According to the Pullman program, the next change to be made by the supervisor will be his transfer from New York to some other city. When the former chief of the New York district, Mr. J. A. Rittenhouse, was transferred last summer from the territory to the Pacific Coast as assistant general manager, it was predicted in this column that he would most likely be followed by Superintendent Scudder. This prediction was based upon the former peregrinations of this official in following his old chief from district to district. It now appears that the prophecy will be sustained. When interviewed on the subject last week by this reporter, Mr. Scudder said he was unable to say definitely where the was slated to go "I am going somewhere," he smilingly said, and added: "I don't know any more than von, limmie, where, I shall be sent. I only know that wherever the company requires my service, there Mrs. S. P. Williams Mrs. Sophia Porter Williams of Williamstown, Mass., widow of the late John Morris Williams who had been steward of the Alpha Delta Fraternity House at Williams College for thirty years at the time of his death in 1911, died in a New York hospital on Thursday, November 13, of a cerebral malady. She was 77 years old. Born in Bennington, Vermont, Mrs Williams was the daughter of David and Ann Eliza Porter, who were descendants of Indian and Negro parents, many of whose offspring are to be found in Vermont and Western Massachusetts. Early in life she went to Williamstown, and there met and married John Williams. From that union issued nine children, nine grandchildren, one of whom is Prof Walter Williams of Tuxekee Institute, and two great-grandchildren. Aside from having been a devoted wife and mother, Mrs Williams was known in the town and on the college campus as a woman of exceptionally fine and lovely manners, the exemplified and maintained that reputation to such extent that she was one of by professors, students, and residents, in terms which left no doubt as to the degree of their respect and admiration. During the years her husband lived, their home was a social center for Negro students at Willis College. When he died, so well did the students think of the family that the 1911 humble class made all arrangements for the funeral services and burial. One of the apest tributes paid her husband, and one to which she always referred when speaking of him, was made by the late under Sanborn Tenney of Willimanshire who said, in culigoring the wrist of Alpha Delta Phi steward, "Madam Tenney husband was an example for the young men of Willimans College." Mrs. Williams, was one of the oldest members of the First Congregational Church of Willimanstown. She was also a charter member of the Women's Temperance Union in that town. Besides the number of grand and great-grand children mentioned, reexposed by survived by her daughter, Mrs. Spencer and Mrs. Bessie Turner, and hiamstown; Mrs. W. D. Robinson of New York City, a son, John Taylor Williams of Albany. The body was accompanied from New York to Williamstown Saturday, September 15, by Mr. and Mrs. Robinson and their daughter Miss Juhla, of 936 East 216th Street, with whom the late parent had lived for the past two years. Burial in East Lawn Cemetery, the resting place of the Williams family, was on Monday, November 17, and was attended by representative residents of Williamstown and adjacent towns. ADVERTISE YOUR FURNISHED ROOMS I shall go." This comment was made without any apparent regret at having to leave one of the largest districts in the Pullman circle, which is unusual with these officials. He did say, however, that during his four years in New York he had found many things to admire in the cordial relations that existed between the official personnel and the employee personnel of the district. Asked directly what impresssoins he had formed while here of New York porters, he replied: "As a whole, they found them to be as fine a body of porters as I have ever had to supervise." Several months ago, Superintendent Scudder suffered a family tragedy which still shows traces of its effect. An only child, a youth just entering manhood, was killed in a motor accident in Dallas, Texas. Mr. Scudder started in the Pullman service in the old Jersey Southern district more than twenty years ago. From that job he has worked his way upward to his present place in the Pullman organization, and has served with the Pullman, the North, the East, and now they say, he will serve it in the West. Of the 12000 Pullman porters, the guess it that a tenth of them have read the following editorial, which appeared in the New York Evening Sun of November 14. For the benefit, however, of those who may not have seen it, we are reproducing it here. To our mind, of the best compliments paid the thrift, and common sense of the Pullman that we have observed for some time. Incidentally, it offers whole some food to the Pullman management for reflection. Communism in the *Parlor Car* "The Rev. F. Edmund Walsh of Georgetown University gave to the Fish committee investigating Communist activities some interesting information as to what he saw and read learned in a summer tour of Europe this year. Among other things he called attention to certain statements in a document published by the high priests of Communism in Moscow. This purported to tell about the effeminacy of Red propaganda in the United States." "Agitators were said to be paying especial attention to the American Negro, but it was admitted they had made little progress. Among Negroes they have made least headway with Pullman porters. In fact, the document declares, 'the one group which is entirely unsatisfactory is the Pullman porter.' "Unsatisfactory? Nobody who knows the Pullman car porter can doubt he is 'unsatisfactory'-as a target for Communist propaganda· He is among the most intelligent and industrious of workers and his presence gives his initial selection for his employment his aptness to learn; he keeps it because he is industrious; he makes it pay because he knows how to make his service valuable and his presence agreeable to the traveling public. He has had to understand, as few other work do, the importance of individualism of going in order to get, of keeping on the job for as many hours in the day as there may be need. "The only clock-watching he performs is that of seeing how closely his train is running on schedule so that Mr. Blank can be warned in time to be ready before he reaches his destination. He has no more notion of dividing up with loafers the earnings of his personal labor than he has of going forward and taking the throttle out of the hands of the locomotive engineer. "The Pullman porter is a thankless subject for: Communistic propaganda because he knows better." Picked Up Here and There The final election of Pullman employees under the Plan of Employee representation, was ended on Tuesday, November 11. Representatives elected to serve on Local Committee C, the porters and maids unit of the plan, in the Grand Central District, were as follows: A. B. Logan, T E Griffin, J B. Ford, T. Hairston, C. G. Griswold and W. G. Butler, the last three being elected for the first time as committeemen. S. J Freeman of the board of directors of the P. P. B. A. and welfare worker in the Grand Central district left on Friday, November 11, and Porter J. B. Ford, Local 53's delegate, left New York on Sunday, November 16, for the annual convention of the P. P. B. A, which opens its sessions on Tuesday, November 18. There is a considerable amount of agitation for an Eastern agency of the association, the same to be located in New York City, as such an agency will serve both the Grand Central and the Bahama Terminal districts. At a meeting held at Mott Haven recently by the members of Local 5, this ag PAGE NINE LOYEES tation developed into a resolution for an agency, which had the approval of a majority of those present. Whether the local's delegate to the Chicago meeting, can put the resolution on the minutes of the meeting, remains to be seen. Mrs. Harriet Wells, a senator, maid on the Twentieth Century, Limited, who was on the cross-country trip with a party of telephone officials and an their gave to friends a gift and highly interesting description of the army and other features of the trip. Mrs. Viola Williams, long known as one of the star maids in the P. T. distart, is receiving the congratulations of friends on her promotion to the position of welfare worker among the women employees in that district. Mrs. Williams's selection for that role is looked upon as an ideal one from an internal as well as service point of view. Mrs. Mabel Fitts Taylor, who has been ill for a month or more, is reported to be well on the road to complete recovery from her confinement. Mrs. Taylor, it will be recalled, is one of the original residents of Nepperhan Heights, Yonkers, a home-owning community in Westchester County, which has been developed in the last ten years. Penn Terminal Notes By J. T. REID P. A. Sample left for Chicago Friday evening, November 14, on the Manhattan Limited. He will represent the Penn Terminal Local at the P. P. B. A. convention. After the convention is over he will start his two weeks vacation. We wish for him a pleasant time both in Chicago and at his old home in Kentucky. C. E. Tolliver, who has been off sick for more than a year, died Sunday morning. While we mourn his passing, we cannot overlook the long time he has suffered from an incurable illness. Therefore, we can only hope that our dear brother porter is relieved of his pain, so that he may now rest in peace. May the Supreme Power of the universe protect the widow, relatives and friends. To the widow, we extend our sympathy, at the same time remind her that "The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away-blessed be the name of the Lord." The following porters are still on sick leave; G. E. Callahan, N. G. Tatem, L. C. Jackson, J. W. Graham, H. Perrin, A. Robinson, W. H. McPherson, G. Gaskins, H. Collins, G. W. Jordan, P. Hinton and A. C. Thomas. Fellow porters, we should visit our sick, it is the least we can do. I know how you feel. You say to yourself, "I ought to go up and see Bill but I have not got anything to give him. I will wait until I can spare something, then I will go see him. Now boys, that is wrong. Bill will be glad to see you regardless of your condition. It will make him glad to know that your thought of him and came around to spend an hour or so. What do you think of those who claim to be your friends and never show up when you are sick?

HARLEM CELEBRATES NEW HEALTH CENTER Mayor Walker Turns Over First Health Center in City to Harlem Invite Them by Telephone ISN'T there someone you'd like to have join the family circle at Thanksgiving Dinner? Would son or daughter care to invite a chum whose family are far away? Why not extend an invitation by telephone—this evening? There's something about an invitation by telephone to out-of-town friends and relations that just can't be described in cold type. It's so much more intimate, so genuinely sincere—and it gets the definite replies that help you quickly make your plans. More and more people everywhere are using the telephone today. It's the cordial way to extend invitations for dinners—teas—bridge parties—social gatherings. It's modern—and surprisingly inexpensive. (Continued from page one) rain, that had been falling without cessation since early Friday evening. "But," said he, "after entering this church and observing the very attractive presence and realizing the importance of this meeting, I even feel better." He said there is much to be grateful and faithful for. Thanks For Blessing "I want to thank my dear old friend, Mr. Brown, for his very inspiring prayer." Mayor Walker said. "I want to thank him for asking that the Mayor be blessed. This is not usual. At least not for the last six or eight weeks. It makes me feel much better. I think this is a genuine day of blessing for the city." He referred to the fact that upon the platform were three heads of city departments whose duties were in nowhere connected with the matter of a Health Center, and expressed deep gratitude that these men showed such great interest. He referred to Commissioners Greef, Goldman and Deegan. Taking up the matter of the establishment of Health Centers for New York City, he said that Commissioner Wynne had observed that Harlem was chosen for the first center because its need was greatest. But the Mayor disagreed with this statement. He said that Harlem is a section of the city that lays close to big heart. It is one of his favorite communities, the center of culture a region, of melody, poetry, arts, and music. Continuing, he said that a certain indecision on the part of some as to the location of the first center did not obtain with him. "As far as the Mayor was concerned, he was from the first unanimously in favor of the suggestion of Alderman Fred Moore, that the center be located in Harlem," said the Mayor. Tribute To Alderman Moore In a personal vein, he paid a fine tribute to Alderman Moore, referring to the celebration a year ago of the golden wedding anniversary of Alderman and Mrs. Moore, say that his greatest difficulty had been to reconcile the vigorous, capable and effective energy and actively evidenced by Mr. Moore—with that of a man who is a father, grandfather, and now a great-grandfather—a man who already celebrated his golden wadding. "I shall never forget his 30th wedding anniversary," declared the Mayor. Referring again to the Health Center, the Mayor said in part: "While there may have been doubt in the minds of some, there is none in my heart this afternoon. My most sincere congratulations are upon the lovely presence made by these boys and girls of the public schools. I see evidence of cultured home life and industrious parents." Teachers. I bring not only the congratulations of the Mayor, but the deep gratitude of all the people of the city. There is not a place in this city where there are more intelligent or better behaved children than I see before me this afternoon, and keep that way, dear children. Your character has been formed and developed and presents such indications as you manifest this afternoon. Follow that children, and you will be a credit to BEST BUILT BEST LAW this city and your country. I hope that as you grow, your devotion to your school, and the progress of this city, and the welfare of this city, will grow with you. It is encouraging. I am happy that we have come to Harlem for our first public Health Center and I am sure it will communicate itself to every other part of the city. Must Preserve City Health These are, hard times, not only, in a commercial way, but in heartaches as well as industrial depression. But we must cling to the preservation of the health of our people, for without that good times would continue to be hard times. If the city is to continue in the decreasing of the death rate, we must start with these 'healthy' ones. This Health Center is part of a new system, that will bring service to our citizens. There is something in the way of imagination—something sincere and affectionate to be found in the people of this district. I give you this Center on behalf of the people of New York. This Health Center may be a great success, not because it is manifested from the minds of public servants, but because it protects the health and life of my fellow citizens who will take advantage of it—make their bodies and minds stronger. May it develop in these children, even in their elders, greater respect for law and order. I hope it will make them better citizen in this community. If shall accomplish that, it will make stronger bodies—stronger in mind and love of the city. If shall have done that it will have accomplished its full purpose. I give this Health Center to those who take advantage. They are welcome not as a class or creed or race, but as American citizens and "residents of the City of New York. The city gives it to you Keep it please, as you will want others to follow for the benefit of it Keep it please for when Health Centers have become numerous let this continue to be the first Health Center Take it for Harlem and preserve it. Rita Haynes Responds As the Mayor took his seat, amid long continued applause, little Rita Haynes stepped forward and gracefully and with self-composure accepted the trust imposed upon Harlem by the Mayor, pledging the fullest appreciation and use of the facilities to be obtained in the first Health Center to be opened in New York. Rita Haynes response was as follows: "Mayor Walker, Dr. Wynne, Alderman Moore and guests. I have the pleasure of representing the mothers and children of Harlem, and we wish to express to you our sincere thanks for presenting us with the first of the sixteen Health Centers in New York City. To repay you for your generosity to us we shall prove ourselves to be good citizens and to make good use of this Health Center. We thank you for this honor, and pledge you that we shall prove worthy of your trust and interest in us." Then the school children sang "Land of Hope and Glory," and the patrol of P. S. 119 marched forward as a color guard to Old Glory, and they led the entire audience in the flag salute and pledge of allegiance, the program ending with the singing of "The Star Spangled Banner." MILTON Pupils of Public Schools 119 and 68 who participated in the opening of the Harlem Health Center last Sunday: Following these exercises, the Mayor and other officials left the church through the 136th street exit and repaired across to 108 West 136th street to the old Mme. Walker Studio, which has been taken over by the city and remodelled to serve the temporary purposes of the Health Center. Later, a site is to be secured and a building especially designed for the service is to be erected. Visited Harlem Hospital After a few minutes spent in inspection of the Center and the taking of photographs, the Mayor and his party went on over to Harlem Hospital where an unexpected inspection of that institution was made. There was much excitement and pleasure among the patients in that overcrowded institution when they found, the Mayor was coming to see them. The public inspection of the Health Center followed after the departure of the Mayor and his party, Dr. Arthur L. Blau is the local health officer in charge of the Center, and he was assisted in receiving the visitors by Mrs. Genevieve McKinney, supervisor of the Department of Health nurses; Mrs. Mabel Doyle Keaton, secretary, Harlem Committee, N.
