Harlem Churches Open For Feeding of Needy Of Five Serving Din Harlem Churches Open Kitchens For Feeding of Needy Poor, Each Of Five Serving Dinners Daily given families where there are no children. The police attached to the 123rd street station distributed 500 baskets to poor families on Friday, December 5, under supervision of Capt. James J. Wall. Patrolman Raymond Gleason was actively in charge of the distribution. 850 Baskets were given from the 32nd Precinct, the distribution being made in the gymnasium of the Harriet Beecher Stowe Junior High School, P. S. 136, 136th street and Edgecombe avenue, just across the street from the police station. Capt. Frank Brady was in command, and the actual work of the distribution was carried out by James McMahon Carl Jordan, Edward Green, Martin McMulty, Anthony Buckner, Martin Rhodes, Eddie Jackson and Henry Parker. The Harlem branch of the Salvation Army, Ensign Lambert Bailey in charge, continues its servicing of two meals daily to thousands of the needy poor. The meals are served morning and evening at the branch, 58 West 135th street. Last week acknowledgement was made in this paper of a large bundle of wearing apparel, all neatly mended and pressed from Mrs. M. E. Gibbons of 219 West 139th street. The address was given mistakenly as 130th street. And again thanks must be extended Mrs. Gibbons for another large bundle of clothing for, both grownups and children, all in the most excellent shape. In listing the school distribution for Thanksgiving, it was not noted that the Julia Ward Howe Junior High School, P. S. B1, 212 West 120th street, made a generous distribution of both clothing and food to poor families of girls attending that school. Miss Adeline E. Simpson is principal of this school. Abyssinian's Pastor Pra Walker and Commissioner Abyssinian's Pastor Praises Mayor Walker and Commissioner Mulrooney that distress. "I often wonder why the press and pulpit are not stressing this good work done by our policemen in stead of stressing the alleged irregularities of about twenty-seven men on the force. It is surprising, when we think of the temptations to which all policemen are subjected, that the number of accused is so small. "I doubt whether any other group of men on earth could make a finer show of honesty and faithfulness. "If we were to line up 18,000 preachers, whether white or colored, I fear that the ministers who are unfaithful to their trust and a discredit to their calling, would go far beyond the number of twenty-seven. "All honor to our over-worked and much abused Police Force! They are practicing as much Christianity as any group of men in the United States. "I don't care whether a man belongs to a church or not, if he is helping to relieve the suffering he is a follower of the Lord Jesus Christ. "The Seward Prosser Committee is as truly Christian as the Council of Federation of Churches of Christ in America. In fifteen, days this committee has raised nearly $5,000,000 to give work to hungry men and women. More than 14,000 have already been put to work through the Craigers generosity of this. Committee. Mr. Darkness gave $500,000 of this amount. Rockefeller, sr. and junior. $10,000. "The Prosser Committee, make it possible for our Relief Bureau to pay out about $1.00 in salaries last week, and to distribute 1,500 pairs of clothing and more than 400 pairs of shoes.

Five of the local churches have agreed to cooperate with the Harlem Cooperating Committee on Relief and Unemployment, 111 West 105th street, the Rev. Shelton Hale Bishop, chairman, in bringing effective and immediate relief to needy poor in Harlem by each church serving one meal a week in its dining room to deserving persons who are given tickets at the committee's headquarters. Each church has a particular day, and while it is announced as a soup kitchen, the meals are nevertheless of a solid and substantial nature. To avoid the possibility of having the people served the same meal at the different churches, varied men were prepared, one for each church, and each different from the others. The five churches, it is reported, cooperating, in this movement, are Emanuel A. M. E. Church, Rev. D. Ward Nichols, pastor, Mondays; Mother A. M. E. Zion Church, Rev. J. W. Brown, pastor, Tuesdays; T. Mark's M. E. Church, Rev. J. W. Robinson, pastor, Wednesdays; Methel A. M. E. Church, Rev. E. A. Clark, pastor, Thursdays; St. James Presbyterian Church, the Rev. William Lloyd Lions, pastor, Fridays. At the St. James the people are given a dinner of corned beef and cabbage and white potatoes. The hours are 12 noon to 3 p.m. except at Emanuel where the meal is served in the evening. Tickets are issued by the general committee, each day's ticket bearing the name of the church to which the applicant is to be sent. Police Distribute Food. The Police Department is continuing its weekly distribution of food to por-families of Harlem in which there are children. This aid is not Dr. A. Clayton Powell, in a remarkable sermon delivered before 2000 people at the Abyssinian Baptist Church last Sunday morning, declared that: "Christianity was never so popular as it is today. Fifteen years ago it was a startling thing to see a long article on religion in a daily paper—today there is hardly a big daily in the U. S. that does not give at least a page a week to religious notes. "Many-of our metropolitan papers, like the World and Tribune, feature sermons on Monday and give religion the first place on their front pages. Ex-President Coopidge rarely ever delivers an address or writes an article in which he does not streg Christ and the Christian religion as the panacea of our national ills. "The trend of our religious thinkers today is away from speculation and reformation and decidedly toward individual and social regeneration. While we must shamefully admit that there never was so many signs of rottenness and decay we also boldly and gratefully declare that the church never possessed such an abundance of Christian Salt to save society. There never was manifest so much practical Christianity as there is being manifested today. Organizations in general and churches in particular throughout this city, with few exceptions, are trying with each other in feeding, clothing and housing the unemployed. Mayor Walker's committee gave away last week 30,000 tags of food to needy families. "Commissioner Mulrooney and his 18,000 policemen deserve our commendation and gratitude for the splendid way these 20,000 bags of food were distributed. Many of the policemen are working night and day, seeking for families in distress, and trying to relieve The New York Age COAL BARGE PLUNGES TO BOTTOM IN LONG ISLAND SOUND; CARRIES SEVEN, ALL COLORED, TO DEATH Outbound from New York to Nantucket, Mass., with a 250-ton cargo of coal. the schooner Stormy Petrel, with Captain Dial, his wife, three members of the crew, another.woman the ship's cook, and a little child, all Negroes, plunged to the bottom of Long Island Sound seven miles off from Watch Hill, R. I., late Saturday evening. The Stormy Petrel ran into a storm almost immediately after leaving New York. A gale on Thanksgiving Ever raged over the ship for twenty-four hours, stripping the ship's sails and sending her upon the rocks of Hen and Chickens Reef, near Cornfield Point, at mouth of Connecticut River. She was towed in New London, where the captain sought to make repairs. Afterwards, until Saturday, the captain sought to get a tow for the rest of the voyage and finally secured the coast guard ship Nemaha, in command of a boatswain whose name the New, London coast guard officials would not divulge. Moton Commission Submits Report On Haiti, Upholding Complaints Against Occupation School System Washington, D. C.-Substantial grounds for complaints by Haitians against the "service technique" or separate vocational school system set up during the American occupation because were found to exist by the special commission headed by Dr. R. R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute, sent to Haiti by President Hoover this year to conduct an educational survey, according to the commission's report to the President, made public Monday by Secretary Stimson. Dissatisfaction with the "service technique" contributed to outbreaks late last year, which precipitated a serious situation for the American occupation. President Hoover requested to investigate general conditions and later the Moton commission to study the educational system. As a result of the Forbes Commission report, military control of Haiti has been modified, free elections have been held, and a Minister has replaced the American High Commissioner at Port au Prince. Major Recommendations The State Department is now studying the recommendations of the Moton report which, which was signed by all members of the commission, comprising, in addition to Dr. Moton, Dr. Mordecai W. Johnson president of Howard University, Professor Leo M. Favrot, field agent of the 'General Education Board'; B. F. Hubert, president of Georgia State Industrial College, and Dr. W. B. Hill, president of the college at Tuskegee and field agent of the Jeanes and Slater boards. The outstanding recommendation is that the service technique be articulated with the national school system of Haiti and that financial and administrative aid be given by the United States in developing an adequate system of education. The Moton committee urged that a permanent joint commission be established, composed of Americans of Negro descent and Haitians, to formulate plans for articulations of the two educational systems and to advise how the two governments may cooperate in carrying out other recommendations of the commission. It recommends a grant from the United States Treasury to aid Haiti to develop an adequate educational system and to finance private at low interest from private sources in this country at the instance of the American Government for that purpose. It suggests that President Hoover use his good offices to encourage private philanthropy in this country to aid education in Haiti. Declining Support of Education Declaring that, from a financial point of view, education in Haiti has been worse off under American occupation than under exclusive Haitian an control, with the national school system receiving progressively declining proportions of the annual appropriations, the commission asserts that the setting up of, a separate system of primary schools "was a mistake" and that the fears of the Haitians that the service technique intended to supplant the national school system "appears to be justified." All that could be justified under temporary American occupation, it adds, would be a limited program to demonstrate a desirable type of school for town and country. continues, the service technique "app-ears extravagant," while the standard of achievement set up was far beyond the capacity of the-Haitian treasury to support. The service; according to the report, was projected on too elaborate a scale, contained too many Americans with salaries too high in comparison to those paid Haitians and failed to cooperate with or recognize the authority of Haitian Government officials. No practical results in agricultural promotion or improved standards of living have been noted; it is declared, after seven years of activity. Change in "Attitude" Urged "The commission finds, however, that the type of service inaugurated under the service technique represents a pressing need, that real progress has been made in laying the foundations for agricultural and industrial development, and that the motives of the leaders cannot be questioned. The lack of the Haitian people following the American occupation has made it difficult to obtain their cooperation. "The Haitian leaders themselves are not beyond criticism for neglecting the development of opportunities for their rural population, for overemphasis on the cultural branches of education, and for their aparment lack of concern for the welfare and well-being of the people, to institute the foundations of their government;" the report continues. "Your commission is distinctly of the opinion that a change of attitude on the part of officials of the American occupation, and especially those representing the service technique, from one of independent self-sufficiency to one of interested and sympathetic cooperation will meet with such a response from leaders of education and government, officials in Haiti as will yet make that department a welcome addition to the forces of enlightenment and culture in the country, rather than an object of suspicion and a reminder of unwilling subjection. "America can surely be generous toward the people whose forebears shared her struggles for freedom from a foreign dominion; by nothing can she more assuredly vindicate her claim to be the protector of liberties of the nations of the West than by the fulfillment of Haiti of her pledge to her lands more productive, her people more productive, stitutions more firmly established and her liberties more secure, for having gone to her rescue in the hour of peril." Refused to Pay For Pig Feet, Jumped From Roof According to the detectives of the 79th Police station, Lee Wilkins, of 1996 Pulton street, would not pay for an order of pig feet and as a result a gun was drawn on him, he fled to the roof of the house at 868 Myrtle avenue and leaped from the roof of the building on early Sunday morning December 7. As result, 'Shillie' Caraock 28, was held on a charge of murder when he was arraigned in the Homicide Court on Monday, December 8. According to the police a party was being held at the home of William Hemley and his wife, 868 Myrtle avenue, Wilkins ordered the pig feet, and when Mrs. Hemley asked for the money, is alleged to have refused to pay. When the boat left New London, she was riding low in the water, but the captain felt the vessel was seaworthy enough to complete the run. A fairly stiff wind was blowing. Three hours out, the boatswain in command of the Nemaha became dissatisfied with a small searchlight being used to light up the tow, 200 yards astern, and turned it off for a moment while preparing a larger light. When the stronger beam was focussed upon the spot where the Stormy Petrel had been last seen, there was no sign of the ship, which had plunged to the bottom, carrying all souls aboard to death. The Nemaha put about and radioed New London, from which point four destroyers and two patrol boats were despatched to the spot with all possible speed. An all-night search, lasting well into Sunday morning, revealed absolutely no trace of the vanished vessel. The Stormy Petrel was the property of the Fingerboard Coal Co., of West New Brighton, Staten Island, N. Y. White Plains School Principal Is Found Guilty of Slapping Student White Plains School Principal Is Found Guilty of Slapping Student THEIR SEPARATION DENIED Dr. EUGENE NELSON, colored, of Los Angeles, Calif., denied separation as being permanent as it was learned that HELEN LEE WORTHING, former Ziegfeld Follies beauty (shown above with her husband), was confined in Neurological Institute in New York City for nervous breakdown. White Plains, N. Y.-Charles O. Beaman, principal of the Eastview Avenue School, has been convicted here of assault in the third degree for striking and injuring a colored girl's student, Antabella Stepney; the girl being represented in court by William T. Andrews, special legal assistant at the national office of the National Association for the Advancement of Colord People. The attack upon the young colored girl by the white 'principal' was the outcome of his ordering. her not to walk across the lawn of the old high school building. The complaint against the principal alleged that the girl was summoned into his office, that he grabbed or arm him, that he tore herself he said he would "not take any ammunition from anybody, white or black." The girl retorted that he needn't tell her she was black, whereupon it is charged, the principal struck her across the face causing a flow of blood and injury which was testified in court by a colored physician, Dr. Williams. The handing of the case by the N.A. A. P legal assistant has been the subject of legal attention in White Plains and a movement is under way to hire about the dismissal of the offending principal. Judge William Gray, who found the white principal guilty of third degree assault after short argument by attorneys for both sides, suspended sentence. Dr. Errold D. Collymore, of White Plains, reports that judge C. H. Hancock the first time in his court that any lawyer had conducted himself with such dignity and intelligence as did Mr. Andrews in this case. Police Arrest Man As Dope Peddler In San Juan Hill Distric John Stephenney, Negro, 25, of 231 West 63rd street, was arrested Wednesday. December 31 by police of the narcotic squad. Police said the arrest came after they followed Stephenny from 237 West 62nd street where they said they had bought $2 worth of heroin from him. In the man's rooms, police said they found a quantity of cocaine and heroin, three guns and ammunition. Just In Time To Save Baby's Carriage Wheels A baby carriage, which was practically new, was left on the sidewalk in front of 106 Bradhurst avenue, after a woman had taken her baby up to stairs for a nap. Two boys came by, and looked at the carriage and decided that the wheels' would be just three things for a wagon. They proceeded to take the carriage apart. A neighbor came to the door just in time to see the boys remove the last wheel, and stop them from taking them away. They seemed to have felt that luck wazagainst them. They almost had wheels for a wagon. HARLEM 'NUMBERS' WOMAN IS WITNESS IN INVESTIGATION OF POLICE AND 'STOOL PIGEON' ACTIVITIES IN GREATER N. Y. Seeks Revenge After Serving Term on Welfare Island----Charges She Was Double-Crossed By Police The Supreme Court, Appellate Division, investigation into the operations of police officials through the use of "stool pigeons" was brought into Harlem on Monday through the testimony of Mme. Stephanie Ste. Clair, formerly of 409 Edgecombe avenue, recently released from serving a term on Welfare Island after being convicted as a "Numbers Queen." she was operating as a "numbers" banker, from 1923 to 1928, she paid $6,000 to various police officers, including one police lieutenant. In this part of her testimony she swore that she had paid $1,100 to the lieutenant through a confidential messenger, one "Mus tache" Jones, alleged to be a well known Harlem gambler, and that on each occasion the officer had phoned his acknowledgment of receipt of the money. "She declared that in her contacts with the police, she had, frequently seen them with Chile Mapocha Acuna, the South American who tes- ified last week as to his activities for a number of years as a "stool pigeon" for the police, at which time he named and identified nearly thirty police officers as having employed him at various times in "framing" innocent women and railroading them to prison unless they could raise money enough to "pay off" the officers. Bail-hounds and lawyers were also implicated in his testimony. Besides the lieutenant, she accused another officer of taking $400 from her house, named another already been accused of perjury in the Woman's Court was suspended from duty, and brought in the names of four officers not heretorelmen mentioned. All are in the 6th Division. She alleged further that after being robbed of the $400, she telephoned the lieutenant and demanded protection, which demand, she said, was ignored. Then Mine Ste. Clair inserted a number of paid 'advertisements,' adorned with her picture, in a local Harlem newspaper, making bitter and drastic charges of graft 'and venality among the police. Almost immediately she was arrested on what she termed a "framed" charge and sent to the workhouse on Welfare Island for 8 months. Since being released, it appears, she has not returned to her As she rang for an elevator to leave the Supreme Court building on Monday. former residence at 409 Edgecombe avenue, but is living elsewhere. She is reputed to be wealthy, the owner of two apartment houses. She appeared at the investigation wearing a mink coat, an expensive gown and a small fortune in jewelry. She claims to have been born and reared in Marseilles, France, and speaks with a distinct accent. She stated frankly on Monday that she was out "for revenge" because of the manner in which the men she alleges she paid afterward turned on her and "double-crossed" her. She was accompanied by a body guard and received an audience which she said, were records that would substantiate her story. The investigation is being conducted by Isidor J. Kressel, special counsel, before former Judge Samuel Seahury, appointed by the Appelate Division for that purpose. Two Arrested On Charge of Murder Charged with the murder of Daniel Gaston Flowers of 308 West 127th street on Sunday morning, December 7, two youths were arrested Tuesday morning, December 9, by Detectives Dorfman and Sullivan of the West 130th street police station. The two men, according to police, confessed killing Flowers on 143rd street. They gave their names as John Williams, 240 West 143rd street, and George Smith of 5 least 135th street, when arrested. When taken to the Homieidle Court, they were held by Magistrate Brough without bail. Husband and Wife Make Up In Court Frank Hudson of 200 West 144th street was haled to Washington Heights Court Monday on condemnation of his wife, Annie, who said that he had beaten her and put her out of the house. They were terribly sour with each other, and Mr. Hudson had his lawyer right there to verify his statement that his wife was not telling the truth. The defendant said that he was sure that his wife did not love him, because she had brought him to court, and then the wife began to shed bitter tears. Magistrate Burke adjourned the case for an hour to give them time to make up. The lawyer who had come to defend Mr. Hudson acted as peacemaker. They went to the year of the court room and put their heads together. When the case was called later, they came in smiling. | SOCIAL AND CLUBNEWS =(:: ~ — SPECIAL FEATURES -Manhattad’ Personals “were recent visitors in Soston, =, “Miss Alice Crawford of Baltimore «spent the holidays in New York.

I. Is Postponed The fraternal visit by Brooklyn Knights of Pythias, and the Courts of Calanthe to Glen Cove, L. L., has been postponed until Sunday, December 21. It had been planned to go on December 14, but owing to the fact that there are many Pythians and Calanthes who are Elks and Daughter Elks, and this is their memorial Sunday, it was decided to hold it on the later date. This was decided at the regular meeting of the joint grand lodge committee meeting at the Gartton Avenue Y. M. C. A., on Wednesday evening, December 3, Chairman L. F. Green presided.

Phone Haddingway 0849 BROOKLYN, MANHATTAN, LONG ISLAND Brooklyn Lodge of Elks Have Warm Time in Its Annual Election When Past Exalted Ruler Higgins Wins Despite the fact that several factions united to defeat him, Attorney Thomas L. Higgins, a past exalted ruler of Brooklyn Lodge of Elks, was elected by a ratio of two to one over P. Albert Myers as exalted ruler, at 17 stirring election on Monday night, December 1. It was one of the largest attended elections ever held at the Elks Home, 1008 Pulton street. Much campaigning and many fraternal political moves were made during the last moments of the election. A number of Elks in the "lodge who had opposed past exalted ruler Higgins heretofore, united up-how as the "man of the hour" to preside over the destinies of the lodge for the next six months and the man to whom all could look for a constructive program. The election of Higgins was not the only battle, for some members had centered an attack on the trustee board headed by Warren E. Dillard, but the machine behind Dillard and Higgins seemed to be well oiled; and their slate went over to the last man. Past Grand Exalted Ruler George E. Wibecan, one of the members of the lodge, centered his opposition on Higgins, and during his speech is reported to have said in substance that the lodge should never go back when it comes to electing an exalted ruler but go forward. Zeno Scores Wibecan This drew the fire of Past Exalted Ruler Robert L. Zeno, secretary of the trustee board, who stated that Wibecan had been a candidate several times since his defeat by J. Finley Wilson, and this was a case of trying to come back. This brought a hot retort from Mr. Wibecan, but Mr. Zeno did not reply. This was one of the lively moments of the meeting. In order to defeat Dillard for the trustee board a number of the "Old Guard," headed by "Bill" McFarland, formed a combination, and at the last moment persuaded Dr. Roland R. Johnson to accept the nomination for trustee, as popular as Dr. Johnson is he failed to be elected because the new machine which has succeeded the McFarland machine was functioning perfectly. There were few changes in the other officers. One new man goes on the board or strutsmen. He is William H. Banks, president of the Society of the Sons of North Carolina. He succeeds Benjamin F. Butler, who declined another term. The officers are Exalted Ruler Thomas L. Higgins, Exalted Leading Knight George Layton, newly elected; Exalted Lecturing Knight George Zeno, re-elected Exalted Loyal Knight Louis Van Dorn, re-elected; Financial Secretary John H. Felder, re-elected, Treasurer, P. D. Early, re-elected, recording secretary, Ralph Ripley, newly elected, Tristress, Warren F. Dillard, re-elected, William H. Banks, newly elected. The remaining members of the board are William H. McFarland, Edward Jones and Robert L. Zeno. Their terms did not expire at this time. District Deputy Grand Exalted Ruler James Williams presided at the election. With the election of Higgins, it is reported that many of the members, who had lost interest in the lodge will return, and will aid greatly in solving some of the problems that confront the order. The Annual Sermon The annual memorial services of the lodge will be held at Fleet Street A M E. Zion Church, on Sunday afternoon, December 14. The pastor of the church, Past Grand Chaplain Dr W. C. Brown, will deliver the sermon. A special program has been arranged for the occasion On Saturday night, December 13. a special meeting will be held, at this time a number of candidates will be instated into the mysteries of Elkdom Exalted Ruler Percy Buchanan will preside 29's Club To Hold a Christmas Reception The 29th of December, will be a gala night in Brooklyn as the popular 29's Club, of which A.

P. To Raise Funds for Needy New Man On Board Negro Jew Fails to Convince Jewish Judge Abbey Cohen, 21, colored, told County Judge Nova that he was Jewish, but a Mohammedan, when he appeared before him on Thursday, December 4, on the charge of assault, but this did not preempt the judge from remanding him for sentence. Cohen's case was preceded by two young colored boys, playing the Alphonse-Gaston act for each other, but this also failed to make an impression "upon" the court. Harry Hodges, 20, of 1593 East New York avenue, and Maco Cleabest, 20, of 269 Marion street, were up on the charges of stealing an automobile on November 17, last Cleabest, who has no police record, claimed that he took the car, and asked Hodges, whom the police state has a record, to take a ride in the car. When Hodges saw the judge was not impressed he took the blame. The judge said that it was a good story, but he had heard it before. So he let Hodges plead guilty to petten larceny, and Cleabest to plead not guilty, and held him in $1,000 bail to use as a witness against Hodges. When Abey Cohen, was asked by the judge, who is Jewish, if he was Jewish, he is alleged to have said yes, but when asked if he was Orthodox, he answered that he was Mohammedan Judge Nova stated that he had heard of the lost tribes of Israel, and that Cohen must belong to them.

Mrs. Ida Williams Dead Mrs. Ida Williams, a member of one of Brooklyn's oldest families, died at her home, 429 Herkimer street, on Saturday, December 6, after several weeks' illness. She was a deaconess of Bridge Street Church. This is the second time within the past month that the grim monster death has invaded the ranks of the deaconesses of the church. On November 23 Deaconess Henrietta Edwards died. Mrs. Williams who was secretary of the deaconess board, was a poetess, and one of her poems was set to music by the late Fredrick I. Braxon, one time president of the Chel Club, and a member of the church. She was a close relative of the late Patrolman Brown, who was a member of the police force in Brooklyn before consolidation in 1899. She was a member of the Church Relief Society, Mite Missionary Society, Floral Club, Fidelity Club, the Ladies Auxiliary of the Coachmen's Society, and other organizations. Formal service were held at the church on Tuesday evening. December 9. The deceased is survived by a son daughter and a grandchild. The Book Sensation of Years The lid is off, the curtain has been drawn, and the back-stage doings of white folks and Negroes in these United States have been brought to light in more ways than one in the latest book, entitled "Negro, The Battle of Bloods," by Dr. John Louis Hill, a white man, born in the State of Tennessee. It is what the Negro has waited for, and it is NOT what the white people want—not all of them. It will be the table talk of the winter months, and it may be the subject of debate for years to come. Sensational —it is not that—it is more. This white man, with unusual courage, has really started something with this book. He outs deep—and the blood files—yes, all over everything and everybody. What is a white man; what is a Negro; what is a part Indian? Is the Negro a liability to this country or an asset? Do we believe our school books? Does the Bible do justice to the Negro? Were white people always afraid of black people? The weakness of white men for colored women started long, long ago. The Battle of Bloods rages right under our eyes. This book tells it all, including religion, politics, and heaven, if there is any. The book sells for $2.00. ORDER COUPON Literary Amorificen, no. Chrysler Bldg., New York City.

When arranged before Magistrate Curtis, recently, he is alleged to have stated that he was drunk, and felt that he wanted more to drink, but could not account for getting into the policeman's house. He was held without bail for examination when he appeared in the Gates avenue court. The police state that Motorcycle Patrolman Edward Steevers was awakened in his home, 1460 Bergen street, and found his neighbor, George Salvino, white, struggling in the hallway with the intruder, and Wilson was getting the better of the white man. Wilson was right by hitting he colored malfunctioned head with his service revolver. Wilson was arrested and charged with burglary and felonious assault, the assault charge being based on a laceration on the scalp which Salvino claims he received at the hands of the colored man.

It will be,remembered that the party not only lost the: city to ‘Tam- miany Hall candidates, electing -but one Assemblyman it’ Brooklyn, but it also lost all-but four counties up the state, This repudiation of Republican poiicies in the ‘Sections where the party was counted’ the strongest, may have been the moving cause for the resignation of William J. Maier, as chairman of the State Commit- tee, but the reasons that led to the selec- “tion of W. Kingsland Macy of Suffolk gounty as his successor are not so simple. +: Some observers went so far as tu, re- Wmark that Mr. Macy was elected to the wrduous post of chairmafi by default, no ther Republican leader of equal strength ‘aid capacity being willing to take the post. Be that as it may, Mr. Macy is not Jacking in the qualifications needed tor ‘the position... Besides the advantage of Being a milhopaire. he has shown himself outspoken and courageous as the political leader of Suffolk county, unhesitating in his criticism oi party’ policies when they did not accord with his personal tonvic- tiéns. Under these circumstances and in view of the wide variance of opinion be- tween the new chairman and his predeces- sors, it is a question ‘as to whether his election was intended to give him an op- ‘portunity to either make’ or break him- ‘self as a political power. = “ While Mr. Macy. before assuming the responsibilities of state leadership, was out- spoken in demanding progressive policies on,state issues, 1t is doubtful if the reaction- ary leaders up the state, will give him whole-hearted support in carrying out such policies However. the fact that they lost their home counties to Governor Roosevelt may have enlightened them as to-the trend of public opinion on certain State issues. As a matter Of self preser- Nation they may have determined to give the people what they’ want in legislation and state government. . . How far the national administration will go to back up the new chairman ‘through the use of Federal patronage is ‘another important feature of the situation. “AS New York State has no -Republican ‘Senators, the duty of recommending can- “Gidates for Federal office devolves upon ‘the ‘State chairman of the Republican Re- jpresentatives in Congress. Among the ‘Tatter Mrs. Ruth Pratt of New York City js credited with having the greatest influ- “ence, with President Hoover. «As the of- fites of United, States: Attorney*and Col- lector of Internal Revenue for the Second district of New York are now vacant, the ‘naming of-candidates for these posts is awaited with some concern., < ‘With the change in state leadership the question is again raised as to the neces- sity of establishing a Virile and progres- sive leadership in the five counties of New York City. Kings county made a change about a year ago when Jacob Brenner was deposed in favor of Meyer Steinbrink, a.staunch supporter of Hoover, but no improvement in the party vote was ap- parent. Bronx county has new. leader: ship, without making much change for the better. New York county did nothing in the way of giving effective support’ to Jocal candidates in Harlem last month, thereby supporting the belief that the: dis- trict leaders prefer to Keep the Republican enrollment to its present figures, so as to havea emall and exclusive organization, sufficient to absorb all’ the Federal pat- ronage: available but useless as a vote- machine, County Chairman Koenig is tobd‘acute an individual not to see where this-policy is going to land. his organiza- tion, as a side show to "Tammany Hall, He has the brains and ability: te map out a more vigorous policy for his dis- trict leaders. With a new spirit -in- fused dnte the slate ormaitizatiin, the op- litical force in the community. If the Re- publican .party cannot meet this emer- gency, some other political organization must do it, The time is ripe.for new Re- publican leadership in New York City, as well as in the state. . SESH SU SNS 258 WEES According to advices from Geneva, the report on alleged conditions of slivery in the republic of Libetia has been submitted io the Leagud of Nations.” This report was the outcome of a Commission of three members, which visited’ the West African republic to investigate the charges of slavery, ‘of which Dr, Charles S. John- son of Fisk University was the American member, The ‘findings of the commission were embodied in an official report which reposes in the confidential archives of the League. Enough has been given out, however, to justify the charges made and warrant, the statement that the conditions existing in Liberia were “scarcely dis- tinguishable” from slavery. °° In fact, the conditions that obtained in Liberia, so:far as forced labor is concern- ed, did not appear to differ.greatly from the peonage system practiced in many parts of the South, notably in Georgia and Florida. ‘The report was said to have denounced the Americo-Liberians as the worst offenders, in declaring that “they even take native women ‘as pawns, using them io attract laborers to” their lands.” Forced labor was said to be wastefully recruited under’ a tribal system, and- fre- quently used under “conditions involving intimidation and ill-treatment on the part of government officials. Labor recruited by county superintendents and district commissioners for public purposes has been diverted to privaie use on the farms and plantations of government officials and private citizens, This reads Tike a re- port of a Department of Justice operator on peonage in the United States. But Liberia is gomg to abolish this system of forced labor. pow that the at- tention of the world has been drawn to it in this pointed manner, The President of Liberia has issued a decree. in which it is declared: “All domestic slaves of native tribes are hereafter declared defimtely iree and released from servitude.” Pawn systems, wil Ibe abolished and forced de- barkation in connection with labor con- tracts is also forbidden.. Incidentially; the commission fatled tu find that the American rubber company, which is work- ing ‘under a government concessio#f, “con- sciously employs anything but voluntary labor.” But it was ‘pointed out that the company has no control over the compul- sory system oi recruiting labor practiced or condoned by the Liberian officials. “Altogether, the gist of the report would appear to be in the nature of a verdict of not .guilty technically, but do not do it any more, which the Liberian government has promised to do. Ii the effect of this investigation has been to’ put the labor system of Liberia on a better basis, well and good. But the charges of slave labor were evidently well enough grounded to warrant a change. Now, why should not the League of Nations investigate the conditions of peonage” in: Georgia. Florida and other Souther states, where a system of forced labor prevails, supported by ‘the local courts and officials? Of course, the United States is too great a nation to permit out side interference into its internal affairs, but logically it is as much in need of cor- rection on the question of slave labor as ‘Liberia, THE VILLA LEWARO SALE. The sale by auction of the furnishings and decorations of the Villa Léewaro, the former residence and show place built by the late Madame C. J. Walker at Irvington, furnished another proof, if one was needed, of the ability of the Negro to assimilate theAmerican spifit.. It showed the ability to build up-a fortune, to indulge in the luxury of a show place, surrounded by all the ‘aids and’ exhibits of culture, and the coming of a newer generation which had little sympathy or interest ih such cultural aspirations and the’ scattering vf the col- Nection of costly objects of art and beauty. ‘The daily papers made much of the sale of costly rugs, tapestries and other decor- ations, never failing to insist that Madame Mather “made a fortune out of hair tonic for straightening kinky hair.” This was ‘as legitimate a business as_making tonics ‘to restore hair to its original color, or give it any color desired to match the owner's costume, . Madame Walker was a shrewd and energetic woman, who found~ out what a large number of -people wanted and proceeded to furnish the article re, quired. In the: process ‘of subduing unt ruly'locks to a-tamer aspéct, she improv ed the personal appearance of her pros- pects and led therm to adopt other meth- oils of hygienic value in the treatment of the’ hair and’ skin. She richly deserved all-the monje that, she acquired in her voéation of improving the personal ap- geatance: of het <ustonsers,’ e The fact that-she chose to invest s0 great a portion of her accumulated earn- ings in a building of the type she chose, my not have ‘been ‘sound business judg: ment, but it probably-satisfied some inne: craving fot rural surroundings and archi- tectural beauty. She had earned the money to satisfy this aspiration, and her pur- chases of expensive art. objects was in- tended ‘to gratify cultural ambitions which probably she never voiced, The fact that the, objects she collected were later dis- persed at a forced sale is the stereotyped history of many American art collectors: The prices obtained for some, of the articles auctioned off at this sale, as well as the character of thé buyérs, showed that the collection as' a whole -was composed of genuine art stuff. When wealthy con- noisseurs pay as much as fourteen hun: dred dollars for a” rug at auction, there must be some value in it, The fact that smaller articles, such as bits of ivory, vases, ‘small rugs and .dresden figures, brought excellent prices, in many cases as much as the retail value would be, showed the eagerness of the buyers, nearly all of whom were white, to get what they con- sidered good ‘bargains, * The auction “sale at the Villa Lewaro was another object lesson as to the ability of the Negro to absorb the spirit of American civilization, with its. abrupt transitions from the role of the wealthy collector of beautiful objects, to’the layish spender, who must disperse such a collec- tion in onder to make good: in other direc- tions. It must’ also be remembered that Madame Walker while living was'a gen- erous contributor to. welfare movements working among the race, SIGH SCHOOL HISTORY. So muchthas been writtén and said con- cerning the repeal of the Eighteenth ‘Amendment, which has become so unpop- iular with the rising generation, that the movement seems to have extended to an carher amendment. namely, the Fifteenth. This is one of the Civil War amendments, which provided: “The right of citizens o} the United States to vote shall not be de- nied or abridged by the United States, or by any state. on account of race, color, or previous condition, of servitude.” Weé know that certain United States Senators were in favor of such a repeal, in fact Sen- ator:George of Georgia exulted over the fact that the amendment had virtually been annulled in his state and others in the South. © “But 4 new reinforcemgot has come to the advocates of repeal and disfranchise. jment in the form of a, sixteen year, old Jewish girl a senior student in” the George Washington: High School of this city. In a paper read before her class, with a mixture of-boldness and arrogance, she essayed to show why the Fifteenth amendment should be repealed. The reasons mustered to support her plea were briefly as follows: ‘The-Negro has the mind of a child. He should not partici- pate in politics because he is susceptible to bribery. The right to vote makes him feel himself as good as the whites. She also cited opinions from certain prejudiced writers on the race question in, support of these assertions, While her class teacher stated that-he did not agree with his promising pupil in her conclusions, he complimented her vpon her presentation of the subject and the style of her composition. How he in- tended to mark the paper, as to the matter lof study and research of the subject and the authenticity of the authorities quoted, did not appear. .The absurdity of allowing a child of the age of sixteen to discuss a subject of such a controversial nature and which has taxed the powers of the. great- est of our native statesmen and civil ad- ministrators without bringing forth a reasonable solution, should be manifest to all concerned. “The high school senior evi- dently was merely acting as the, voice for the set of opinions framed, by an older mind. oo. ” “Not long ago a group of educators of Negro youth, at a conference held in Phrt- adelphia, agreed tipon the necessity of teaching the history of the Negro racé in America to their pupils, This incident in a New York City high school shows the necessity of teaching the same subject to white youth, so as to keep them from fall- ing into the same error as this misinform- ed Jewish girl.

ATHLETICS BASKETBALL WITH THE RENAISSANCE FIVE By C. R. S. The Harlem basketball fans witnessed an unusual event last Sunday night, when the Detroit Clowns regained in circus attire stepped on the court at the Renaissance Casino to do battle with Bob Douglass's world colored champions. While the visitors were good clowns and amused the crowd the proved to be mediocre ball players. The "Rens" took the occasion to "Strut their stuff" and gave a good exhibition of their sizzling passing which helped to show the Clowns up.

Take Ruth may adopt orphan- to show the generosity of his heart. but Al Brown, colored champion of the world's hantamweights, has opened his purse to subvention and expedition into darkest Africa to study native customs in the wilds. Migno Theophila Brown, of Panama, will not accompany the Geraldine expedition, but every time the party's car needs new tires Al Brown will sign up another fight and give his profits to the scientific mission. The Al Brown-torraille mission will start next February from West- ern Africa, head straight east and cross the continent to the Indian Ocean. The chief of the mission, a French war aviator, Giraille, versed in many African languages, will study particularly the native music, games and sport. Wherever the expedition goes it will try to instill in the minds of the natives that games can be turned into competitive sport. "When we went through Africa before, we were struck by the fact that the natives of the interior knew nothing of competition," Giraille explained to the United Press. "The idea has never struck them that the games they play could be made competitive matches and their lives could be brightened by inter-camp sports. We gave them the idea of relay races, and they race relays all over Africa now. "African golf is not merely an American slang expression for diving, for golf actually exists in Africa. Many tribes play the game, there are no holes, but the ball must be driven to specified spots. After the match it is tradition the clubs are burned and any player who takes his club home would be dishonored. "But the natives have no pleasure in playing African golf. To them it is a sort of rite. They are very serious faced when they engage in sport and there are no shrieks to enjoy." Washington, D. C.—Continuum, its unbroken series of victories, the Howard University soccer team again defeated Hampton in a game played December 10 in the Howard University stadium, with a score of 4—0. The Bison scores resulted from a pass from Jacobs to Burrows, with a cannon ball penalty kick by Hugo Brown, and a beautiful goal from a difficult angle by Roberts, who later showed his superiority as a dribber in breaking away and kicking for the final market. Hampton's only chance to score was from a free kick within the five-way line in the last two minutes of play. The kick was blocked. Summer and Steward started for the Sea-Siders, while Roberts was the outstanding Bison performer. The Howard soccer team was organized last year, with Nathan go as captain and center forward. Under the same leadership, the team has reportedly defeated Hampton, Lansdowne and all other for the past two years. Cut out the Howard team with as record appear in Spalding.
