Chelsea Bank Closing Hits Harlem Clearing House To Stop 'Numbers'
END OF NUMBERS RACKET IN SIGHT AS NEW YORK CLEARING HOUSE MOVES TO DISCONTINUE DAILY PUBLICATION OF DIGITS
The lottery game known as "numbers," which has been reaping a harvest in Harlem for the past five or six years, will no longer flourish, if plans now under way by the clearing house committee of the New York Clearing House become effective. This committee plans to end the publication of its daily clearances, balances and the Federal Reserve. Bank credit balance in the daily press after January 1.
Certain digits of these figures are the basis for the popular "numbers" game. To check the use of the figures for this purpose the Clearing House some years ago decided to make them public only in round numbers. The figures are posted every morning on a blackboard in the lobby of the Clearing House at 77 Cedar street.
The system of deciding on the winning number is to combine the second and third digits of the bank clearings and the third digit of the bank balance. As an illustration, the clearings on Monday were $589, 000,000 and the balance $116,000,000. Under this system the winning number for these totals was 896. The odds are as high as 600 to 1 and the daily collections are said to run into the hundreds of thousands of dollars.
It is reported that Wall Street is acting in the interest of the credit business houses and insurance companies by discontinuing publication of the figures and thus stopping the game. The credit houses, industrial insurance agents and small business men have been having tough sledding in Harlem for the past two or three years. Many of their customers have been using their surplus funds to play the "numbers," and frankly tell the agents for the business concerns that they will pay up their installments or insurance when they make a "hit." Some of the "numbers" bankers are dubious about the possibility of suppressing the information on which the game is based.

Holdup Man Shot By Victim; Is Held in Bail
Josheph Stokes, 51 Hamilton place, was arraigned in Washington Heights court on Monday, charged with robbery. Sidney Small of 71 West 125th street, complainant, testified that on the night of December, 13, he went to 214 West 143rd street to collect from several tenants in the house. When he entered the hall, he said, Stokes told him to put his hands up. Of complainant said that instead of obeying the man's orders, he opened his coat and told him to help himself to anything that he could find. "There is no need of being rough," he said. He further stated that Stokes said "Go to the roof, we can work a little more easy up there." When Stokes turned his back to look out the door to see whether or not anybody was looking in, he was shot in the back and leg by Small.
On cross examination the defendant said that he was shot during an altercation on 136th street, near Harlem Hospital. When he was asked why he did not go into Harlem Hospital for treatment, he said that he preferred to go to his family physician, who lived about seven blocks from the 136th street address given by him. Magistrate Wiel held Stokes in $25,000 bail for the Grand Jury.

Undertaker Witherspoon May Lose License for Unethical Conduct Buried Stranger in Family Plot
Court Gives Verdict of $40, Cost of Grave Against Him, But Family Is Appealing on Ground That Verdict Is Insufficient
Charges of unethical conduct have been filed against Undertaker James W. H. Witherspoon, jr., one of Harlem's best known morticians, in both the Metropolitan Funeral Director's Association of 25 West 43rd street and with the Department of State, Albany, N. Y., which issues licenses to undertakers and embalmers in this state.
2,250 Chickens To Fire Sweeps Old Harlem Poor On Harlem Opera Christmas Eve House
On December 12, Mrs. Lucy, Jenkins of 614 St. Nicholas avenue won a verdict of $40 and costs from Mr. Witherspoon for illegally burying a stranger in her family plot at St. Michael's Cemetery. Mrs Jenkins sued for $1,000 damages when it was discovered that the unauthorized burial had been made. Her attorney, H. Bustace Williams, at 2350 Seventh avenue, has brought a motion before the Supreme Court to set aside the verdict as insufficient on the ground that Justice Morris in the Seventh District Municipal Court failed to take into account the humiliation, delay and additional cost in the burial of another member of the family. Mrs. Jenkins suffered when the umertakers "desecration" of their family plot was discovered. Justice Morris awarded the plaintiff damages only to the amount of the cost of a new grave.
The original complaint against Mr. Witherspoon states that he purchased a plot for Mrs. Jenkins in St. Michel's Cemetery at the time of the death of her husband, the late Walter Jenkins, in 1912, and that the plot contained burial accommodations for three bodies. On January 31, 1915, another member of the family, a grand-daughter, died and was buried in this plot. When on June 21, 1930, a third member of the family, Anna Jen-
2,250 Chickens To Harlem Poor On Christmas Eve
P. S. 119 is celebrating the Christmas season by dispensing 50 Christmas dinner baskets to the needy families of pupils in that school. In addition, the school is dividing large quantity of toys between the St. Benedict Catholic Day Nursery on 132nd street and the Hope Day Nursery, on 133rd street, both between Fifth and Lenox avenues.
No distribution of food was made by the Police Department on Friday of last week. All supplies were held over for distribution on Christmas Live, except that officers on the 28th Precinct stationed at the West 123nd street station, distributed 300 hams on Saturday.
On Christmas Eve, the police of the 32nd Precinct, the West 130th station, near Edgecombe avenue, under Capt Frank Brady, are preparing to carry joy into 1350 homes of the needy poor, to those families in which there are children. Each basket will contain a plump chicken, in addition to the other concomitants which go to make up the regular baskets of food.
On the same day, at the 123rd street station, commanded by Capt James Wall, 700 baskets, each one including a chicken, were distributed.
kins, age 2, also a grand child, died, it was discovered that there was no room left in the plot for its burial. Mr. Witerspoon admitted than on February 19, 1915 he had buried one Jenette Schavers in the third grave and he explained his action by saying that Mrs. Jenkins daughter had given him permission to do so. This was denied by the plaintiff's lawyer and Mr. Witerspoon was unable to produce the young woman in court to substantiate his story.
It was explained by Mrs. Jenkins that she permitted the undertaker to hold the deed to the plot, she accepting only a receipt with the number and a description, etc.
Mr. Witerspoon offered to pay Mrs. Jenkins $20 for the grave he had used illegally but when she found that a new grave would cost her $40, she refused to accept his check and the matter was placed in the hands of her lawyer.
Now Attorney Williams is not only suing the undertaker for money damages but is also demanding the removal of the body of the stranger from the Jenkins' family plot and filing a complaint against him with Metropolitan Funeral Directors' Association and the State Department which grants licenses to all undertakers doing business in this state.
Fire Sweeps Old Harlem Opera House
Fire which broke out early Monday morning in the old Harlem Opera building at 211 West 125th street, for a time threatened to spread through adjoining buildings. It was one of the most spectacular blazes seen in New York in recent months
Traffic was at a standstill for more than an hour as two water towers and a score of hoose lines pumped water into the building in which Oscar Hammerstein, who built the building in 1890, once provided musical shows and light opera for the uplown theatre goers. Once during the long fight, as firemen were breaking into the miniature golf course on the second floor, there was an explosion, but there were no injuries and the principal damage was to the many windows which were shattered by the concussion.
The-old auditorium, away from the building proper, was spared, as the fire swept toward Seventh avenue. The auditorium is now used by the M & S Harlem Theatre.
Police and fire officials have not determined how the blaze started in the top floor where scenery was stored. Damage was estimated to have been about $80,000.
Transit Commission Urged To Order Discontinuance of Bus Transfers At 125th Street and 7th Avenue Alderman Moore Again Asks Chairman Mullen To Relieve Harlemites of Inconvenience And Discomfort of Present Operation
Aderman Fred R. Moore of the 19th A. D. is in receipt of a communication from William G. Fullen, chairman of the Transit Commission, 270 Madison avenue, advising that the matter of installing through service from Washington Heights via Seventh avenue (busses Nos. 2 and 7) by the Fifth Avenue Coach Co. is being investigated by the Commission.
Formal opening of the Seventh avenue extension from 151st to 155th street and the dedication of the park at the end of the avenue, was held Friday afternoon, December 19, with His Honor Mayor James J. Walker officiating When John D. Rockefeller Jr. decided to erect the Dunbar Apartments and to improve his other property in that vicinity, his architect, Andrew J. Thomas, suggested that instead of having the double curve approach to the 155th street viaduct from Seventh avenue, the roadway be straightened out so that automobiles could approach the viaduct directly from Seventh avenue
Mr. Rockefeller agreed to pay all expenses for these improvements, which cost over $000,000. Under Mr. Thomas direction the shore front along the Harlem River was rearranged and beautified: Seventh avenue, which formerly terminated on the river shore front, has been raged from 151st street to meet the Central Bridge and vaduct over 155th street. In addition the Harlem Lane Park was laid out and beautified. As part of the general plan, 152nd and 153rd, streets were regulated and graded from McCombs Dam place to Harlem river. Mayor Walker was accompanied by Borough Président Julius Muller and several other city officials.
Transit Commission Discontinuance of At 125th Street Alderman Moore Again len To Relieve Harlem And Discomfort of Aderman Fred R. Moore receipt of a communication chairman of the Transit avenue, advising that the m service from Washington H (busses Nos. 2 and 7) by th is being investigated by the
This communication was in answer to one sent by Mr. Moore suggesting that this change be made because of the serious inconvenience suffered by the large number of people who live on Washington Heights in the Edgertoncom and St. Nicholas avenues sector who use the Fifth avenue buses in going to and from their work in the lower sections of the city.
This need for a change in routing of the buses was called to the attention of the Transit Commission as early as April 2, 1900, when Mr. Moore asked for the installing of the through service so as to eliminate the bother of transfers which had to be made, on many occasions, in extremely cold and inclement weather. At that time, Chairman Fullen, after a conference with the vice-president and general manager of the Fifth Avenue Coach Co., stated that the distance involved would be too great, as a round-trip from Washington Square to 168th street and Broadway on the heights would approximate -21 miles, and that congestion on lower Fifth avenue would make it impossible to maintain regular schedules.
To this, Alderman Moore rephased that the distance from Washington Square to Fort George, terminal of No. 3, which runs through St. Nicholas avenue, is much longer than that traversed by buses Nos. 2 and 7, covering the Fifth and Seventh avenues line through to Washington freights.
"PURSUANT TO SECTION 57 OF THE STATE BANKING LAWS, I HAVE THIS DAY TAKEN OVER THE CHELSEA BANK AND TRUST COMPANY, 20 EAST 45th STREET,—JOSEPH A. BRODERICK, SUPERINTENDENT OF BANKS." This statement, posted at the Chelsea Bank on the corner of 135th street and Seventh avenue, Tuesday, December 23, at 2 p. m., caused Harlem's suffering to greatly increase, for hundreds of depositors now cannot withdraw any of their money until the bank reopens. The bank closed in Harlem about a half hour after the downtown branches had closed their doors.
The action of the State Banking Department followed a run which started early Monday. So great were the number of persons in line on Monday that the bank could not close its doors until after 10 p.m. Many of the clerks stayed at the bank all night getting their accounts straightened out for the opening Tuesday.
In Urged To Order of Bus Transfers and 7th Avenue
In Asks Chairman Mul-
ites of Inconvenience
Present Operation
more of the 19th A. D. is in from William G. Fullen, Commission, 270 Madison matter of installing through heights via Seventh avenue the Fifth Avenue Coach Co. Commission.
Mr. Moore took on the matter with the Transit Commission again on December 16, reminding Chairman Fullen that the winter is now upon the people, and that necessity of having to transfer from one bus to another at 125th street and Seventh avenue is working a hardship upon the people in that there is absolutely no protection from the weather afforded them at this point, at which at times they had to wait five or ten minutes for a bus. This was characterized as a menace to health of the passengers.
Dr. Moton Improving
Rochstester, N. Y—Dr. R. R. Morton, principal of Tuskegee Institute, who underwent an operation at the Strong Memorial Hospital here on December 13, is getting along nicely. He is expected to remain in the hospital for about two weeks longer. Mrs. Moton is remaining with him through the Christmas' holidays.
BISHOP W. T. VERNON IN CITY
Bishop W. T. Vernon of Detroit, Mich, a visitor in New York over the weekend. The Bishop arrived in the city for a brief visit after spending some time in Washington, D.C. attending a church conference While in the city he was a caller at The Age office.
When the bank opened Tuesday morning, hundreds of depositors were already lined up and made a rush for the doors. Police from the West 130th street police station were called and they quickly restored order and handled the large crowd in an orderly manner. A few depositors were allowed into the bank at a time. With four tellers working fast, and with others helping to check up the accounts, many left the bank with their money. Several of the large chain stores and many of the business people showed their confidence in the bank by making their regular deposits.
Then at two o'clock word circulated through the crown that the bank was going to close. More police were called under Capt. Frank Brady and they quickly took charge of the situation. At 2 o'clock a notice was posted on the door of the bank that the bank had been taken over by the State. When interviewed by a reporter of the New York Age Mr Heims, vice-president of the bank could give no information. He said that he had tried hard to see that all those who had money on deposit at the bank, and who had come there to withdraw their money, were accommodated. But at 2 o'clock the bank was closed.

Mrs. Helen Lyons Rescues Monkey When Fire Guts Dr. Hayes' Corona Office
Mrs. Helen Lyons Rescues Monkey When Fire Guts Dr. Hayes' Corona Office
Virginia, L. I. N. Y.-When fire started Thursday, December 18, in an adjoining building, spread to the three story building at 10100 Northern boulevard where, Dr. Forest Hayes, Flushing physician, has his offices, a small monkey owned by Dr. Hayes was trapped in the blazing building. Firemen who answered the alarm were busy putting out the fire unaware of the fact that the monkey was in the building, until Mrs. Helen Lyons, a close friend of Dr. Hayes, broke through the fire lines and rushed into the building. On the second floor where Dr. Hayes offices are, Mrs. Lyons took the monkey from the kitchen and took in room adjoining the reception room. She brought the monkey out into the street and, soon afterwards, Dr Hayes appeared on the scene and took charge of his pet.
The fire completely gutted the reception room and another room in the doctor's suite but did not damage any of his surgical instruments. The boiler was not injured by the fire due to the quick action of Mrs. Larsen.
The one-man trolley cars that have been used on the Fulton street line for sometime, have been causing complaints ever since their use.
Last week, Miss Alice F. Thompson, the well known club, church and fraternal worker of 188 Lefferts place, voiced her displeasure in a letter to a Brooklyn daily paper.
In her letter Miss Thompson said in part:
"One waits from ten minutes to half an hour any time of day for a car, and then they are packed so that it makes it hard to get out, especially this time of the year when most every one has a bachelor."
Miss Thompson took others in also complaining against the lack of service to Fulton Ferry. This service would enable many who are employed on Columbia Heights or have business there to go nearer to the Heights.
In her final statement Miss Thompson asserted:
"Think our Borough of Brooklyn, with its growing population should do away with the one-man cars and give the service that will be in keeping with its financial statement, and with two men on each car the unemployment situation would be helped."
One mother in her complaint tells of getting off a Fulton Street car with her 3-year old son, and before she was able to take him off his foot was caught in the door and only the thoughtfulness of a passenger near the door, saved the child from possible serious injury

ALLEGED MURDER PLOT BRINGS 3 INTO LAW'S TOILS
According to the police, a colored man named Frank Fitzgerald is alleged to have stolen the watch of one Rayfield McTeague, also colored, of 1563 President street, and as a result three colored men were arrested by Detective Frank Layons last week, and held in $1,000 bail each, on the charge of violating the Sullivan law. The violation of the Sullivan law, according to the police, was due to one of the three men having been hired to shoot Fitzgerald for the pilfering of the watch.
Rayfield McTeague, who is twenty-three years old, is alleged to have claimed that Fitzgerald who lives on Bergen street, stole his watch and pawned it, and then gave McTeague the ticket, so according to the police, McTeague hired Frank Talbert, who is nineteen, to go out and shoot Fitzgerald for $25.
The $25 looked good to Talbert; and he lost no time in getting over to Fitzgerald's home, taking a reseller that he claims that McTeague gave him. But some how Talbert lost his nerve, and thought that it would be a good plan to hire another colored boy to do the same thing him. The girl went naked, according to the police, was Edward Cooper, also nineteen years old. The two of them, contractor and sub-contractor, thought that it would not be a bad idea to go back to McTeague and collect the money as evidence of good faith
The discussion over payment of the $25 became so heated between the giver of the contract, the contractor and the subcontractor, in McTeague's apartment, that neighbors were constrained to call in the law. Detective Frank Lyons responded and arrested the three men for violation of the Sullivan law.
Thus the murder job was halted, and the giver of the contract, the contractor and subcontractor are in the grip of the law.
It also shows how the law work. While only one man possessed the gun when the detective arrested, the alleged stranger caused all three to be shot. Since it was like a triple play in baseball, the gun had passed, the police say, from McTeague to Talbert to Cooper, and as each admitted possession of it at one time or another, the three were held in $1,000 bail each, when they appeared before Magistrate Huches in the Flatbush Court, for a further hearing.
According to last reports, Mr. Fitzgerald, the intended victim was alive and enjoying the best of health.
Aged Brooklynite Dies
Funeral services were held at Bridge Street A M E Church for Mrs. Elizabeth Henderson, one of the oldest, if not the oldest, colored women in Brooklyn on Sunday afternoon, December 14.

with its joy and good will—why not extend its spirit over the whole year? The fund from the sale of Christmas seals in December will carry help and education against tuberculosis throughout all 1931. The National, State & Local Tuberculosis Associations of the United States
The help of everyone in Harlem is badly needed to keep up the fight against tuberculosis. The Christmas Seal Sale is falling behind last year's returns. This is serious, because tuberculosis needs are already increasing, due to unemployment.
The work of the Harlem Tuberculosis and Health Committee described so often in this paper is supported entirely by contributions which are sent in return for the Christmas Seals.
Thousands of local people receive the seals in the mail and contribute. Those who have received the seals, and want to help should send their checks to Thomas W. Lamont, treasurer, New York Tuberculosis, and Health Association, P. O. Box 88, Station F, New York City Gifts of SI to SI are particularly needed. Any amount is welcome.
Surely the readers of the New York Age will want to help in this work which means so much in lives saved in Harlem. Those who have not received the seals may secure them by calling at the office of the Harlem Tuberculosis and Health Committee, 108 West 160th street. Please help today!

ee HAITI NOT .HOSTILE.
To offset the idea that the present gov-
ernment of Haiti is hostile to foreigners
sand to the introduction of foreign capi-
tal, the new President of that republic,
Stenio Vincent, gave a written statement
to representative Knutson of Minnesota’
who-has recently returned from a. visit
to that island. Mr. Kautson,.1n making
-public this statement. said that he had
“béen going to Haiti off and on ior fiiteen
years, and that during. that peried the is-
Yand had made wonderful progress.in sani-
tation, road building and in the ‘preser-
vation of law and order,
In his statement President Vincent. the
first Haitian President in fifteen years to
e chosen by the representatives of the
people of the island in: their national as-
sembly, sought to correct the impression
that the Haitian government or its people
are anti-white or anti-American. He ad-
mitted it was tre that the people and the
government officials have expressed thei
€pposition to the American occupation of
Haiti, for the excellent reason that “the
activities and usurpation of powers by the
officials of the occupation have far ¢x-
ceeded the conteniplation of the treaty oi
WIS! eB
Nevertheless, the new: President’ wished
to say to the people of the United States
and other countries, in most positive
terms, that’ Haiti 1s glad to have Amert-
cans, as well as other foreigners, come to
that country for the purposes of agricul:
tural development anil the investment: of
capital. He said that Haiti had not at-
tained the same degree of experience in
businéés lifes as its American neighbors
and {it welcomed experience and capital.
‘He emphasized the need of eaperience,
because capital: without experience 15
usually lost. Capital invested in Hart.
under the same conditions of preparatory
investigation and business management
required in the Umited States, he was con-
fident would give a good return on the
investment. .

moter type was not wanted in Harts, but

Nearly all the churches arranged to
provide Christmas dinners for the needy
among their members, not forgetting
those who aré not of the fold, The spirit
of giving has had a wider application this
Christmastide’ than evér before, as shown
by the number of "benefit pérformances
givén for the unemployed, and the volyn-
teer organizations doing their bit to re:
lieve the situation. Only last week The
Age. had occasion to acknowledge a do-
nation of ten dollars from a girls club
to the fund for aiding the unemployed
poor. This was just a young club of
twelve girls, who desired to do their
bit toward aiding in the work of relief.
Members of the theatrical profession,
as usual, havé been most generous. in
lending their services to entertainments
given to aid the unemployed, One: of
the most notable achievements of this
kind was the means’ of augmenting the
police fund to the amolnt of one thous-
‘and dollars one day last week. Commis-
sioner Mulroney announced that Bill
Robinson. the famous dancer and enter-
eae had called at headquarte:3 and pre-
sented his check for that amount to help
‘the unemployed. Mr. Robinson also gave
he Salvation Army seven’ hundred and
fiity dollars and five hundred dollars to
Father Shanley, pastor wf the Cathole
Church of St. Benedict the Moor. Mr.
Robinson 13 one of the most successful
entertainers of our race and his work for
charitable objects has been grven for the
benefit of all races. . 4
/ In the meantime, while the smaller €on-
tributions were coming in for-the imme-
liate reliei of pressing demands’ for “food
and colthing., the fund to provide emer
gency jobs for the joble’s went over the
top, to amount of $8,269,000 The final
returns were expected to add more to this
amount, This iund :s to back up the cre-
ation of jobs for heads of families who
are without work. The committee that
undertook to raise, the iund was formed
in September and @ campaign carried on
for six week. under the chairmanship of
Seward Prosser, the banker. With the
completion of the’ fund to the amount
dicemed necessary, the chairman said that
he wanted the affairs of this committee
to gh off the front pages. so that people
could go ahead and do their Christmas
shopping:

PROTECTING THE CHILD.
_ A, complete stenographic record. con-
‘sisting of fifty-six pages, of the White
House conference on Child Health and
protection, held last November. has heen
published as a supplement to the United
States Daily. The fundamental purpose
of this conference was to set forth an un-
derstanding oi the safeguards which
would assure t the children of the nation
health in mind and body, The problem
of -childhord was divided into three
groups: First,.the protection and stimu:
lation of the normal child: second, aid to
the physically defective and handicapped
child; third, the problems of the delin-
quent child.
Out of forty-five million children it was
reported that thirty-five million are rea:
sonably normal. (i the other ten millidn.
sx millions were improperly nourished,
while the other four million suffered either
irom defective speech. weak or, damaged
hearts. presented behavior problems. were
mentally retarded, tuberenlar, deaf or
with impaired hearing. partly or wholly
blind, or crippled, Twn hundred thousand
were classed as delinquent, while five
hundred thousand were dependent. Kighty
per cent af ‘those wha were abnormal
were not recenving the neceseary attention
to reifiedy their deficiencies,
Among the recommendations made by
the Committee on Family and Parent ed:
ueation was this significant paragraph:
“Special attentinn should be navd, ta the
Negra family im order that he may attain
that economic securmy nereesary far stable
family life and may be .assitted te the antain-
ment of higher ideals of family Ine”
Mr. W. Wa Alexander called’ attention
to the need for a broader economit foun-
dation-ior Negro hic, 1m order to regulate
‘the matter of vocational guidance. Among
other speakers who called epecial attention
to the cause of Negro childhood were
Mrs, Mary Mel.eod® Rethune of Florida,
‘Mrs, Sally Stewsut, president of the Na-
tiomal Agsecuition of Colured Wonten,

Feagne. “The last’ named inaie the stg,
wfstion that Mathers! asd: should he axe
tevdet te incline Negee tamiliee, as on
most states tas difheult for Negre mothers,
to séeure mothers’ aid, He also emptia-
sized the desirability of having Negro de-
pendents handled by agancies responsible
for the whole community, rather than to
organize special agencies. and that where-
ever possible there should be Negro repre-
sentation in administration and in support
of these agencies. : : :
In handling the question of racial prob:
lems presented in the care of the handi-
capped, Dr. C. C, Carstens set forth the
following conditions: ‘
-Ghild dependency hae been xicat.. aflerted
‘by ‘differences in race and nationality and by
.mass migration, The Negro, Mexican, Porto
Rican, and the Indian dependent and neglect:
‘ed children’ each present special problems of
great importance to this nation. The customs,
traditions, the mass migrations and other
special factors call for specialized methods
of meetng-thesegneeds The same general
principles - nf adequate income, wholesume
working and living conditions apply to the
children of these families a4 they apply to
others. This 1s accepted in theory by lead-
‘ers in health and welfare work but in practice
realization is far behind. x
That is the weakness of the entire racial
problem in this country today: that the
economic system is so one-sided that the
principles ‘of an adequate income and
wholesome living and working conditions
are not attainable fogithe members of cer-
tain: groups, of which the Negro is the
most conspicuous. Henee, the reason why
practical realization runs so far behind
theory in health and welfare work. In
order to protect. the children, the parents
and workers must he given a square deal

SOUTHERN PRUDENCE.
The “Chattanooga~ Times. in discussing
the matter of “The South and Reanpor-
tionment,” recently came to the sane ‘con-
clusion that “ordinary prudence would
seem to dictate that the South let well
enough alone.’ This was in «connection
with che effort of the dry leaders of the
South and the agricultural malcontents
of the West to combine their forces and
cuit down the representation of the large
wet industrial centers of the East. To
meet this threat, one & the Eastern repre-
sentatives proposed a retaliatory measure
against the South, +
Representative “Tinkham of Massa-
chusetts who has repeatedly introduced
measures to reduce representation of, the
Southern States im Congress on the
ground that the suffrage 1s denied to the
Negra population. threatened again to
press such a measure. ‘This was to meet
the attempt to eliminate the alien popula-
ton oi the Northern and Eastern cities
from serving as a basis for representa-
ton, The threat apparently has given
the Southern supporters of the ,measure
reason to pause and ty cosider whether
they can afford to lay themgelves open to
such a retaliatory measure.
The Chattanonga paper came out
squarely against the unwisdom of the
movement After quoting the Fourteenth
amendment. it said that considering the
clear meaning of this s{rovision ‘of the
constitution, ogether with the disiran-
chisement laws Of the Southern states. “it
would appear that these states are in no
position to jon the West in a dry agricul-
tural rive for reduction of the represen-
tatton of wet industrial centers of the
North and East because of alien elements
in their population.”
While The Age has never favored the
reduction ef representation as a proper
methoa ef dealing with the question of
disfranchisement in the South, it has here-
tofore given Representative Tinkham
credit for acting in good faith in hi, ef-
forts to enforce that prevision But this
ume it would appear that the threat was
merely to, make the South take water,

NEW YORK AND NEW JERSEY STATE NEWS AND SOCIAL BRIEFS
Jamaica, L. L, N. Y.
News, advertising and circulation headquarters of The New York Age, 109-23 174th street, Jamaica, L. L, N. Y., address J. T. Reid or phone Jamaica 6798. All items for this column must be signed and will be received up to Sunday noon of the week of publication.
Jamaica, L. L, N. Y.—Christmas the birthday of Jesus Christ—should be a happy festive occasion for everybody, 'because for many spellings, not gladness. You remember one of the catastrophes that occurred last year when flimsy decorations on a tree caught fire and two little lives were sacrificed when the home was destroyed by fire.
What is it that causes these tragic happenings that turn joy into sorrow? Inflamable decorations—the use of lighted candles on Christmas trees in the windows, Sturdy step-ladders should be used while decorating the trees, not chairs and boxes.
I know we all love to see the little ones enjoying Christmas but we should not forget that the children are responsible for a great many tragedies every year. Celebrate Christmas by all means but temper festivity with caution, because there is something dreadfully tragic about a Christmas accident. It does not fit into the ideals of ledger monize with the spirit of "Peace on earth and goodwill to men." Wishing you a merry Christmas and a safe New Year—J. T. Reid.

Tips on Children's Diet By Commissioner Wynne
Menu must be varied and balanced.
Good food habits must be formed.
Avoid food fads; use common sense.
Simplify in menus essential.
Special dishes not necessary.
A quart of milk every day.
Left owers should be reserved. -Tomato juice or cabbage water may supplant orange juice. If he refuses food let him "go hungry. Laughter aids digestion. The old-fashioned garden variety of common sauce and the soba-stopping of all food fads" in the feeding of children were stressed by Health Commissioner Shirley W. Wythe over Station, WGHS. He was giving his second paper in the Diet and Health series, and had for his topic "Food for Children From To to Six Years." That the satisfactory adjustment in the matter of the child's diet at this age is an important matter was pointed out by the

Happiness, of course, is an elic which is difficult to realize even vital after all. On the other hand, by any such reservation. You don't spontaneously.

CHRISTMAS THOUGHTS
Well, friends, let's forget hard times, for the next few days, anyway, and talk of something else. Christmas, for instance. As President D. A. Crawford of the Pullman Company quite aptly says, in his Yuletide message to the employees, "No matter what the condition of the world, the kindly spirit of Christmas is unsuccenrable, and the welcome given the New Year always equals the expectations of the happiness it may bring."
Happiness, of course, is an elusive condition, the attainment of which is difficult to realize even when acquired, for it is largely mental after all. On the other hand, the Christmas spirit is not inclosed by any such reservation. You don't have to struggle for it, it comes spontaneously.
One may doubt or question the authenticity of the narrative of the birth of the Child of Ruthlehem, His life and His death, but there is hardly anyone to be found in all Christendom who will dispute the natural spirit of Peace on Earth and Goodwill to All Men which exists on the day that commemorates that birth.
It is, therefore, with this philosophy of the period in mind and how it should be practiced, we extend to you, friends, this wish: May the blessings of Christmasmide fall in abundance upon you and yours.
At a meeting of the Zone General Committee of the Pullman Plan of Employee Representation, which was held in this city on Monday, December 15, T. E. Griffin, the best known porter in the East in Pullman industrial affairs, was elected a delegate to represent the New York Zone at a meeting of all the zones of the plan, which took place in Chicago on Friday, December 19.
Veteran Pullman Porter Dies In Malden, Mass.
Editor of The New York Age;
Again we are called upon to
influence the death of one of our
veteran Pullman porters.
Charles E. Cummings of Malden,
Mass., entered the service 38 years
ago. He began as private messenger
in the army, then the Stenoo-
man superintendent, J. W. Stuck-
ton, previously having spent
10 years in a wholesale business
in a clerical position.
He was born in Nova Scotia, but
came to Boston when two years old.
He married in early manhood and
leaves besides his devoted widow,
six children. He was well educated,
being connected with cultured rela-
tives by whom he was reared. His
aunt, with whom he lives, had the
benefit of solvent school training.
His uncle, J. Gordon Street, was
noted as a writer and newspaper
correspondent, the mental unisphere
He was forced to leave the office work for outdoor air and served as a full-time partner for 15 years, up to his death.
His home and its surroundings reflect the high ideals and the lofty ambition he cherished throughout his life. He was thrivy and economical. He leaves his family a beautiful mansion as evidence of his fragrance. He has educated all his children, some of whom hold good positions a skilled nature, and who are a credit to the family.
The deceased, in a measure, divided honors to Marshall Wells, who was a confidential credit and valet to the late George W. Pullman and who was a key guardianhip over the two sons of Mr. Pullman, Sanger and George junior.
When visiting the Boston District Charles Cummings got that diary at the staircase in Boston on his arrival from Chicago, and looked after his comfort during his stay, and was able to cater to his needs most satisfactorily. A legacy of five thousand dollars was left to Arthur W. Wells, who used the sum would perhaps have been left to Charles Cummings, had his memory been jogged in that direction.
There was a large attendance of friends and business men of the city The-P. P. B. V. A was well represented by a goodly number of porters present. The floral contributions were sorted and beautiful. District Superintendent C. A. Roth and assistant superintendent L. P. Kenney, of the Boston North Side, were present and paid an elegant tribute to the faithful service he had given the company. The leading undertaker of Cambridge, conducted the funeral service.
LOGIS WHITE,
Cambridge, Mass.
Commissioner<sup>2</sup> who showed that not only his present state of health depended upon it, but also his future happiness and vigor. The importance of a mixed variety of simple foods—milk, meat, butter, eggs, vegetables and fruits—in lieu of food fads and fashions should always be uppermost in the mind of the mother who wishes her child to grow healthy and strong. Simplify should be the keyword. Commissioner and he declared that one of the best balanced mixtures, of meats and vegetables is the old standby, the Irish stew.
"In regard to planning the child's meals," said Commissioner Wynne, "common sense should always be paramount. 'A busy mother with plenty of household care on her hands has not the time to spend hours in the kitchen preparing special delicacies for her two to six-year olds. Nor is there any necessity for it. The young's pencil must comfort a choosy child and the menu of the rest of the household."

The election of Mr. Griffin, as the "employees" representative from this zone was, in one respect, a signal honor, when it is considered the various groups of employees which were represented at the conference. These groups, comprise, in addition to the porters and maids, the conductors, clerks, mechanics and cleaners. Conductors not connected with the order of Pullman Car Conductors function in their industrial relations under this plan. Other than the conductors, no Pullman employees are represented in their industrial relations by outside agents. Among the items of business transacted at the conference was the election of a representative from the porter group to serve on the company's industrial relations board.
In addition to being a representative of the New York Zone committee, Mr. Griffin is dean member of Local C Committee, which is the first unit of the employee's plan for the porters and maids. A delegation of porters, headed by A. B. Logan, chairman of the porters and maids governance committee, paid a visit last week to Assistant Superintendent J. H. McDermott of the Grand Central District, who has been confirmed to his home, 30th East 163rd street, the 163rd Street, the University. The delegation reported Mr. "Mae" as being much cheered by the call. He sent regards to all the boys. During Mr. McDermott's illness, Inspector Chris Robinson is filling his place.
Now, what do you thing of this—15 years in the service and no regular run! Well, you don't have to take our work. Just see Andy, of course, the office says, "Brother-of-law has a run," but "Brother-of-law declares not. Anyway, our old friend, Andy Condy, is on the extra list—that is, he was there last week.
From the comments we hear, if Assistant General Manager Ryan stays around these parts another six months or so, and keep up the improvement he is making, there will he few hooks left on which the boys can hang any complaints. Seemingly, the hit official is making, with the porters comes from the attention he gives to the correction of small details in their working relations. Perhaps this may be due to the fact that it has been the sensing of these little details from which the porters have suffered most in the past.

own request, after forty years of service. He entered the service in 1890 and was one of the best known porters in the country. He has served in all branches of the service—club, car, private car, sleeper and parlor man. The high point in his Pullman career "was reached when he was selected on different occasions, having charge of exhibition cars at two expositions and a world's fair. He was assigned to the car, "America" at the Nashville exhibition. At that time, the "America" was the finest and most luxuriously furnished car in existence. Cars equally fine and as richly furnished were built for the Omaha Exposition and the St. Louis World's Fair and Francis was selected each time as custodian of these cars. This is in itself quite an honor to any porter.
During the world war, he was appointed porter-instructor in the Penn Terminal District and held this position until the end of the war. He then elected to return to road service.
Among the trophies accumulated in forty years of service, with the Pullman-Company is a very fine letter of commendation from Mrs George M. Pullman for his efficient service on her private car. He was assigned to her private car for a number of years. He was also assigned to Mrs Pitcairn's private car for twenty-three years. He claims to have made more than thirty trips to California on Mrs Pitcairn's car. One book at Joe Francis will explain why he was so signally honored in Pullman service. He is pleasant, courteous and affable. He has a wonderful physique, standing more than six feet high, and has a most pleasing personality. Once seen, he is never forgotten.
He has not yet reahired the age limit of three score, and ten and does not look like an old man. Nevertheless, the ravages of rheumatism has made such inroads on his health that his legs are not able to withstand the vibrations of the train and standing on his feet any great length of time is too much for Joe.
He has been active in most porter activities—the P, P, B, A of A and the Employees Representatio plan were almost a religion with him. He was happiest when serving ice cream, cake and lemonade which is given gratis at the annual field day at Pelham Bay Park.
Francis always wore a happy smile and has been a fale fellow well met. A few years ago his life was darkened by the death of his wife. Even now whenever her name is mentioned, tears always come to his eyes. He says that since she's gone life does not mean anything to him.
He has another characteristic which is a valuable asset to any man and that is frugality. With two homes in Newark and a pension, he will enjoy a well-earned rest after forty years of service to the public on America's great railroads and finest trains.
G. E. Callahan of 2560 Eighth avenue, New York City, died on Wednesday evening, December 17, after an illness of more than two years. He entered the Pullman service on June 30, 1914, and was loved by all who came in contact with him. The members of the Penn Terminal District join with the family and host of friends in their hour of sadness. We extend to the widow our deepest sympathy. It does seem fragile to be cut down in youth and the full flower of manhood but we should remember that, "The Lord gives us and the Lord taketh away, blessed be the name of the Lord."

Condemnation of Building at West Virginia State College Brings End To All Indoor Sports Activities
Institute, W. Va.—Physical education program has been greatly curtailed at the West Virginia State College through an order issued by the State Board of Control condemning the A. B. White Trade Building, and putting a ban on its further use.
All indoor winter sports are eliminated as a result of this order, as this was the only building on the campus in which the students could play basketball, or hold class, fraternity or sorority proms.
The building was damaged by fire in 1923, after which the first floor walls were roofted over for the continuance of trade, industrial and athletic activities. This proved insufficient, however, and the Board of Control has warned against large group activities being conducted in the building.
Now the walls are falling down because of the heavy roof and mortar is coming out from between the bricks, and the order to give up use of the building entirely has been issued.
Resumption of these activities according to President John W. Davis, will have to await action by the State Legislature in the appropriation of sufficient funds to erect a new building, for which steps have already been taken.
MOREHOUSE DRIVE FOR $100,000 IS NEARING ITS END Founder's Day Set For Final Payment of All Pledges
Atlanta, Ga.—Two years ago the General Education Board made an offer of $100,000 to Morehouse College on condition that Morehouse raise a similar sum among its alumni and other friends.
Of the amount to be raised by the college the Julius Rosenwald Fund promised to give $100,000 provided Negroes give the same. Success in raising the third $100,000 depends also upon the gifts from Negroes and is assured if the Negroes reach the $100,000 goal.
Each dollar, therefore, contributed by Negroes will bring $5 from other sources. It is safe to say that if Negroes will give $100,000, $600,000 can be added to the college endowment, thus bringing the total amount to almost a million dollars
With this inspiration, a vigorous campaign was waged among Negroes for pledges and cash. Many of them who pledged $1,000 and have paid the entire amount and have expressed a willingness to give more if necessary. February 18 is Founder's Day at Morehouse College. The third and last year of the offer of the General Education Board expires during this school year. Founder's Day as been designated as the time when all pledges will be paid in full and Morehouse will rejoice that the $100,000 pledged by Negroes is raised. Records show that among Negro colleges in the United States Morehouse college has one of the widest geographical distributions of students of college grade. This is particularly significant because the enrollment at Morehouse has been restricted to men.
Of the number of graduates ten are presidents of outstanding colleges and universities, seven are college deans and reg strars, forty are college teachers, twenty-one are principals of secondary and public schools (and a large number are teachers in these schools), three are teachers of agriculture in colleges, one hundred twenty-eight are ministers, thirty six are physicians and dentists, seven lawyers, fifty-four business men, fifty-four workers and many others are pursued different lines of endeavor.
Marehouse College has been elected a member of the American Association of Colleges. This makes her one of the six Negro institutions, which are members of this organization.
Archer Made Acting President of Morehouse
President John Hope of Morehouse College has recently announced that upon his request the American Baptist, Home Mission Society has sanction the appointing of Dean S. H. Archer as acting president of Morehouse College for the remainder of the 1930-31 school year.
"Through this new arrangement," said Dr. Hope, "I expect to be able to give more attention to the Morehouse Endowment Campaign.
Mr. Archer came to Morehouse as professor of mathematics in 1903 and held this position until 1920 when he became dean of the college.
He has frequently been in entire charge of the college in Dr. Hope's absence; and during the World War he was acting president for one year while Dr. Hope was doing Y. M. C. A. work with soldiers in France.
Morehouse alumni and students have great love for Dr. Archer and this new appointment is being met with wholehearted approval.

Missouri Sheriff, Police and Tank Company, National Guard Prevents Mob From Lynching St. Joseph Negro
Supreme Liberty Life Insurance Company Takes Over Policies of Colored Insured From White Co.
St. Joseph, Mo.—Efforts of a mob to storm the Hutchinson County jail early and gain custody of Raymond Gunn, Negro trapper, charged with the murder of Miss Velma Colter, 19-year-old school teacher, were frustrated Sunday by the combined resources of the sheriff, the city police and a National Guard tank company. Approximately 150 men, said to have gathered from Maryville, Mo., home of the teacher, and from other nearby, Missouri towns first appeared at the jail here shortly after midnight.
Sheriff Protects Prisoner
Sheriff John Roach talked to the mob leaders through a heavily barred door, and told them he would protect his prisoner in every possible way. All deserter sheriffs immediately were called for duty. They were not molested as they entered the jail. City police also responded to the alarm, as did the St. Joseph tank company of the Missouri National Guard
The guardmen placed a tank equipped with a machine gun at the entrance of the numbers, reinforced by spectators from St. Joseph, were driven away

Husband Acquitted On Charge of Rape on Own Step-daughter
George West of 19 West 13rd street was acquitted in Part 3 of the Court, of General Sessions Wednesday, December 17, on a charge of rape. He was accused of committing rape on his 15-year old step-daughter when his wife discovered the child to be pregnant. West succeeded in having the case postponed a number of times. When it was finally brought to trial, the mother, testified that while she was working in the day, her husband stayed home, and by coercion brought about the relations that finally resulted in the child's condition. The girl was forbidden to tell anyone of their relations and threatened with confinement in the reformatory if she did tell. Through his attorney, West succeeded in convincing the jury that the complainant was a wawayd girl, and any one of a number of men may have been responsible for her condition.
The acquittal of West resulted in the Children's Aid Society turning the child back to its mother, who is in a quaranty as to what to do with her.
On Monday afternoon two unknown colored men walked into the jewelry store of Benjamin Zelvin, white, of 4721 avenue avenue, and asked to see some jewelry. As Zelvin proceeded to show them the goods, one of the men stuck a gun to his face and told him to do the sale. When he refused to do so, he was shot in the left arm. The men ran into the hallway of an apartment house on Lenox avenue and made their escape.
from the jail. After about three hours police guard lines circled the building, keeping all unauthorized persons at least a block distant. Members of the mob held a meeting on a street corner two blocks away, and it was said they decided to go to Platsburg, where reports, declared the Negro had been taken.
Mob Is Dispersed
Officers there said the Negro had not arrived and was not expected. The mob also was not reported at Plattsburg, and St. Joseph officers believed they had gone home. It was understood late Sunday that Gunn, 30-year old convict, still was in the county jail here. Officers, however, were reticent. He served a term in the Missouri penitentiary for conviction of attacking a co-ed in the Missouri State Teachers College at Maryville. Miss Colter, whose mutilated body was found Tuesday night in the rural schoolhouse where she washes single teacher, also attended the college.

The Laurinburg Normal and Industrial Institute, Dr. E. F. McDuffie, principal, had all its operating funds on deposit, as did many of the teachers and students Dr. McDuffie states that the school will continue without interruption, following return of students on January 5 from the Christmas holidays.
