TWO APPEALS
U. S. Circuit Court of Appeals to Review Segregation and Democratic Primary Rulings by Judge Groner.
VOLUME XLVI NO. 3)
U. S. C
City Attorney James E. Cannon and Assistant City Attorney Lucius E. Cary on Monday, August 12, 1929, filed an appeal from the decision of Federal Judge D. Lawrence Groner in granting an injunction restraining the enforcing of the Negro segregation ordinance because of its unconstitutionality in that it violates the 14th Amendment of the Constitution of the United States. The appeal will come before the United States Circuit Court of Appeals and will be heard in October. Should that court sustain Judge Groner, the matter will end, as there can be no appeal unless a writ of certiorari is granted upon which it can be reviewed by the Supreme Court of the United States. Last Tuesday Assistant Attorney General entered an appeal from the ruling of Judge Groner in the Democratic primary case of James O. West. J. B. Deans is the plaintiff in the segregation case.
CHEAP FIRST CLASS SERVICE
The Yellow Cab Co. has started this section by its radical reduction in rates with the same super first-class service. Call a Yellow Cab anywhere and from any phone, ride in it, check up the distance you ride and find out how surprised you will be. To bring the matter closer home to you, note the prices and distances from any point. No zones to worry you. Twenty-five cents is the minimum price. You can ride one and one-quarter miles in any direction you choose for that amount. If you wish to go further, the meter will keep an accurate check and you pay only two cents per passenger of five for every additional two-thirds of a mile and company fare you ride. The large Yellow's carry six passengers at no additional charge per passenger. This is as cheap as street car and bus service. Some people think it is cheaper, for you are not confined to a given route. You are the judge of what streets you travel and also the direction in which you go.
You get out at your destination, right at the door or gate. You can ride from Harrison and Grace Streets to Sixth and Grace Streets for 25c, from Tenth and Main Streets to Adams and Broad Streets, from Broad Street Station to Boulevard and Floyd, from Seventh and Broad Streets to Twenty-fifth and Broad Streets, from Ninth and Main Streets to the Mosque with four other companions for the same 25c on each of these designated trips. It only costs 45c to ride from Seventh and Broad Streets to Broad Street Station. This is 7c per passenger in a party of five.
Read the advertisement in this issue. Send in your call to Boulevard 6644 for either a Yellow Cab or for additional information.
REMARKABLE SINGER
(Special by John Mitchell, Jr.)
I was at the Fifth Street Baptist Church last Sunday afternoon to hear the famous Sabbath Glee Club, of which the well-known Joseph Matthews is the leading character. He was presenting Miss Ethyl B. Wise an unknown singer, so to speak, she being noted for her soprano voice. A sweet-faced, modestly retiring girl of medium build and of pleasing appearance faced the audience.
No One Ready
No one seemed to be ready for the surprise that she sprung upon a large audience that had come to greet the Sabbath Glee Club. Miss Wise has a voice of transcendent sweetness. J. Harold Brown, who accompanied her on the piano was a master with that instrument. Any one would have known that regardless of the fact that he been given the 1929 Harmon award.
Many Languages
But to Miss Wise. She sang in English. She sang in French. She sang in Italian. She sang in German. all from memory. She danced on top of the scale and then soared above it with no apparent effort. When she came down and bowed to the audience pandemonium broke loose, even though all of us were within the sacred precincts of a church. I am not versed in music, but I am a master at listening and in appreciating good music. Those Who Know I approached those who know music and its intricacies about here. They told me that she had ascended to "E flat", whatever that means. I learned that she is a graduate of the Howard Conservatory of Music, and teaches in Maryland. She has not been abroad, and is now spending the summer at Hampton Institute, where Prof. Brown is substituting in place of Prof. R. N. Dett. Mr. Brown is director of the Indianapolis Conservatory of Music. As for Miss Wise, she will never lack for an audience at the hands of those who noted her transcendent display of musical ability and the astounding flexibility of her voice.
Had Volume, Too
It may be well to add that she has the volume and that she filled that spacious church with her melodies as easily as she continued her exhibition of her mastersy of the measures above the scale at "E flat". At the conclusion, the accomplished Fifth Street Baptist Church organist, Miss Florence E. Fields, accompanied her in the rendition of "The Crucifixion."
Mr. and Mrs. K. C. Morton accompanied by their sister Mrs. Fanny M. Drew and her little boy, Earl returned to the city after a delightful motor trip to Philadelphia Atlantic City, Red Bank and New York. While in Philadelphia they were the house guest of their aunt, Mrs. A. B. Garrett.

PECULIAR CASE AT OLD DUTCH
MARKET
(Special by John Mitchell, Jr.)
Samuel Windley, colored, was in the Police Court last Monday, charged with stealing $75.00 in currency from the Old Dutch Market, Seventh and Franklin Streets. The evidence submitted by Sergeant L. R. Kellam showed that some one had tampered with the cash register, abstracting $75.00 therefrom. Windley, who cleaned fish there, dressed poultry and the like, was suspected. When called to the office, he told the officer where to look to find the money.
Money Found
The amount was found and then the warrant was sworn out for Windley's arrest. Mr. Paul Nesser is in charge of this department and he had assisting him another white salesman, who answers to the name of R. E. Holdschlar. When Windley was placed on the stand, he said that he had been assigned to this department by Mr. Schmidt, who is in charge of the store, contrary to the wishes of Mr. Nesser. He said that he did not have access to the cash register.
Took It Out
Mr. Holdschlar and Mr. Nesser had access to it. He saw a check sticking out from the cash register and called Mr. Holdschlar's attention to it. He had seen Mr. Holdschlar go to the cash register and take out something and throw it over to a point, where he had told Sergeant Kellam he would find the money. Just as he had expected the officer located the money and charged him with stealing it.
No Need To Steal
Windley's wife said she worked hard and that the two of them made a living which kept them from want and that her husband had no need to resort to such practices. Samuel Windley had a good reputation, not having been in any trouble before. Judge T. Gray Haddon listened carefully to the evidence and upon the plea of Windley's counsel dismissed the case.
MR. BRAGG'S INJURY
Further information concerning D. P. Bragg brought out the fact that he owns a thorough-bred setter and a pointer. It was in the middle of the night that he heard them fighting each other and he went out to part them. In doing so, one of them snapped at the other, the fangs missing the dog, for which they were intended, and landing in the leaders of Mr. Bragg's arm. Apparently aware that he had bitten his master unintentionally, he went off and laid down. Dr. White reports the arm as being in good shape. One of the dogs cost Mr. Bragg approximately $140.00 and the other $165.00. He could not stand for that much money being chewed up even by his own dogs.
NATIONAL IDEALS
The sixth annual outing to Bay Shore Buckroe Beach, on Tuesday, July 86th, was greatly enjoyed by all who were fortunate to attend. This being the ideal Outing in six years. The committee was warmly congratulated by the C. & O. train officials because of the most orderly outing of any.
Several applications for charters for new lodges to be organized this week. This shows progress.

WEDDING ANNOUNCEMENT
Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Booker and nounce the marriage of their daughter, Mary Stuart, to Alfred Douglas Price, Jr. The ceremony was quietly solemnized on July 26th, at the home of the bride with Rev. Jos. T. Hill D. D., pastor of Second Baptist Church, officiating.
A PECULIAR ACCIDENT
W. T. Gray was painfully injured at his place of business, 412 N. Second Street, last Sunday. He had taken up a soft drink bottle hurriedly with his left hand, when it slipped and he caught it with his right hand jamming it against the wooden table. It exploded and the glass badly cut two of his middle fingers. Dr. D. Webster Davis, who is an adept at this surgical business, sewed up the gash, and so well was the operation performed that Monday afternoon Mr. Gray was using his hand again.
Deacon I. H. Scott, who died after a prolonged illness was buried last Thursday at 2 P. M. from the Ebenezner Baptist Church. Funeral Director A. D. Price had charge of the remains.
Dr. E. R. Jefferson, the well-known physician, is improving as rapidly as could be expected at his residence, 708 N. First Street. He fractured his knee cap.
Whether in town or out of it, R. C. Scott will serve you. Remember that.
LIBERIA GOING FORWARD FAST
SAYS DR. TAYLOR
Tuskegee Vice-Principal Brings Good Reports From African Republic, and Also From the Gold Coast.
(Special Correspondence)
London, August 1.—"If I were still a young man, with my way to make in the world, I should unhesitatingly go out to Africa", was the statement made to me by Dr. R. R. Taylor, Vice-Principal of Tuskegee Institute, Alabama, the great Negro educational center, founded by Booker Washington. He has just arrived in London after a visit to Liberia and the Gold Coast. He received a special invitation from the President of Liberia, to give the Negro republic the benefit of his experience and advice concerning the foundation of a Liberian "Tuskegee", for which a sum of $$$75,000 was recently left by the late Miss Olivia Phelps-Stokes, of the well-known American family whose members have supported so many schemes for Negro progress.
"The International development of Liberia is proceeding fast", said Dr. Taylor. "There are larger appropriations for schools than ever before, and the late Mr. James L. Sibley, the American who is the Educational Advisor of the Government, whose tragic death has just occurred, had their complete confidence. These schemes and the building of excellent roads are now possible, President King explained to me, now that border problems and the hostility of the people of the hinterland are questions of the past. The activities of the 'Firestone' interests, who have already developed about 55,000 of the million acres assigned to them, have stimulated a number of the Liberian people to plant rubber also, and there is also agricultural development in other directions.
"There is great enthusiasm for the idea of a Liberian 'Tuskegee' among all of the three sections of the community, the Americo-Liberians, the natives, and the Europeans. I was able thoroughly to recommend the preliminary choice of a site at Kakata, situated on the fine motor road which is being driven through the country, at a point about 46 miles from Monrovia, the capital. It is thus easily accessible, and is in the center of a thickly populated district, while it is also at a spot where the territories of three tribes, the Bassa, Pesseh and Golas, meet. It is on rolling ground, is well watered and the soil is good and will do excellently for agricultural development and experiment. I have little doubt that the scheme will be approved by the advisory board in New York to which I am reporting." Dr. Taylor also paid a visit to the Gold Coast, where he was entertained

by Sir Ransford Slater, the British Governor. He is very much impressed with the progress being made at the Prince of Wales' Government College Achimota, "Principal Fraser and his staff have gained the complete confidence of both the Africans and the Europeans," he said. "The period of suspicion has been outlived, and most of this is due to the influence of the late Dr. J. E. K. Aggrey, whose memory is revered throughout the community from the Governor to the smallest children. I was very much impressed too by the favorable attitude on the part of the Africans to the British administration, as well as the sympathetic attitude of the officials towards the Africans. I found there no word of bitterness or hostility. The Africans, too, all seem eager to learn, and the fact that they can own their own land gives them a self-respect which is most important." An architect by profession, Dr. R. R. Taylor has been asked to draw up the plans for the Liberia College buildings when he gets back to the United States, if his recommendations are accepted
Miss Aleas and Miss Inez, daughters of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Neal, 605 N. Second Street, left the city for a ten days' trip. They will visit their uncle in Philadelphia and will spend some time at Atlantic City and Norristown.
Funeral Director Robt. C. Scott has made improvements in his business and is making others. Anyone of his 'phones will bring prompt service.
When you go to South Richmond and call on "Clarence", as his friends affectionately call him, you will find an up-to-date" funeral director's establishment. He is as prompt in service on this side of the river as he is on the other side. Embalmer H. L. Minor, the expert, is ever ready to respond to a call.
"C. P." means C. P. Hayes. He has the rolling stock and the service. If you do not get both, it will be your fault. He had five bodies laid out a week ago and there was no hitch in the service.

The suit of Alonzo C. Waller against Rev. Leroy Frayser, which resulted in a verdict of $500 damages against the preacher, was called in the Hustings Court, Part II, Monday, August 5, 1929, to pass on the motion of Attorney's T. Dix Sutton and F. A. Rosher, who represented the defendant.
Judge Wells set aside the verdict upon the ground that Waller's wife's better condition should not have been admitted in evidence. A retrial of the case has been ordered to take place at the October term of the court. Attorney Thomas I. Talley represents Waller.

IN MEMORIAM
In sweet remembrance of my dear daughter, Dorothy Neal, who left me eight years ago, August 21, 1921.
Dear little hands I miss them so
All through the day wherever I go,
All through the night how lonely it seems
For no little hands to wake me out of my dreams.
I miss them all through weary hours,
I miss them as you miss sunshine and flowers.
Daytime or nighttime wherever I go,
Dear little hands I miss them so.
Just budded on earth to bloom in heaven.
May her soul rest in peace.
Sadly missed and never forgotten.
—By Her Mother,
JANNIE NEAL.

That Russia may be involved in war with China seems almost certain unless the Powers can force these two countries to observe the articles of the Peace Pact that became effective July 24th. On the surface the cause seems to be such a trivial thing as the ownership of a railroad. China has seized a Manchurian railroad built by Russia. As a result of the seizure the mobilization of Soviet troops has taken place in Manchuria. Here we see two soldiers of the Russian Red Army writing their hygeia commandments for the detachment of which they are a part. The army is teaching its soldiers the importance of hygiene and is stressing the fact that during their term in the army it is practically their religion. The Russians claim they do not desire to have a war with China and the Chinese are equally emphatic in their awe of keeping the peace. The leading powers have offered their good offices to bring the crisis thus created to an amicable settlement. (Herbert N. Y.)
THE WORLD'S ENGINEER
Now that the S. S. Bremen, German-built passenger liner, has broken all trans-Atlantic records by nine hours, another record breaker has been completed in Germany. This record breaker is something new in flying machines. This flying machine is so big that on an official inspection trip, it took visitors just three hours to see every part of the Queen of the Air. The photograph that is presented here is that of the world's largest hydroplane, The Dornier Superwal Do "X", built to carry 100 passengers and a crew of 12 officers and men. The monster flying ship has three decks and is driven by 12 Siemens-Jupiter motors, with a combined h.p. of 6200. It is expected that the ship will attain a speed of more than 250 kilometers an hour. With such remarkable progress being made in the field of aviation it will be but a matter of a few years before giant air liners will be competing with equally gigantic ocean liners for the commerce of the world—(Herbert Studios),

THE SAME OLD WORLD—A WONDERFUL
STORY OF PROGRESS—RURAL
EXTRAVAGANCE
A recent magazine writer contends that friendship is passing . . . It is the same old world—so far as friendship is concerned, and in nearly everything else, except that we have more to play with . . . The modern man, when time hangs heavily, turns on the radio, to see what sort of devilment is going on in other parts of the world; in an older generation, a bored man shouldered his riffs, and went out to shoot an Indian.
I have observed that Literature is unfriendly to men. Yet, in all fairness, and justice, the most marvelous thing is the progress men have made. Tell me, if you can, a tale as wonderful as the growth of men from barbarian or worse to his present state
A writer in a farm publication says "No century has ever seen such a thing as rural extravagance." . . Extravagance is as common in the country as in the towns. When a farmer buys more machinery and hard stand it in the weather then not in use, what is that but extravagance?
When he over-borrows at the bank, that is extravagance. When he spends more time in town than is necessary or profitable that is another exhibition of it. Farmers live too economically so far as food and housing go, and are too extravagant with agents, and in the use of their working hours. We sympathize with farmers because their calling is not very profitable. This is true of many others. Teachers and preachers are worse paid than farmers. There are millions of clerks not so well paid as farmers, and factory employees everywhere are appealing to the government and public for help. In all the hullabalo the fact remains that citizens of all classes may do pretty well in this fat country if they accept generous opportunities and handle them with reasonable intelligence and efficiency. And the fact remains that those who chose to appeal for aid cannot be much helped by public appropriations or tears. We can no more make everybody prosperous than we can make every

I lately heard a woman talk of a male relative who had been a drunkard all his adult life, and she made one statement that interested me. She said all the man's relatives, friends, and acquaintances were in league to keep him away from whiskey but that he could go into any strange community anywhere on earth without funds, and within a few hours secure all the whiskey he wanted, and be howling drunk. . . . Often the needful things may not be had for love or money, but whiskey and pistols seem to be within reach of anyone wishing to use them.
I often hear of what mothers should "tell" young daughters. The first should be the agony and danger the best of wives suffer, the second the inevitable disposition of men to be less thoughtful as husbands than lovers. Such information is gross and material, but young girls are entitled to know what they are stepping into when they put on wedding dresses.

MRS. WILLEBRANDT'S BLUNDER
Mrs. Mabel Walker Willebrandt has proven the contention of the Association Against Prohibition that the 18th Amendment and its accompanying Volstead Act legislation are impossible of enforcement. The evidence may be found in her articles now appearing in the New York Times.
Here is the story of a city teacher, who conceived the idea of taking afternoon instructions in law, who from an insignificant practice was elevated to one of the highest positions in the land by the support of her sex and vouchsafed unlimited power for the time being by the wave of prohibition fervor. Being a good speaker, she attained prominence until as a woman, she was made Assistant Attorney General and assigned to the prohibition side of the contention, although as she unfortunately admits, she had never been a teetotaler, until the rigorous legislation made her so.
She made Negroes, the special objects of her vitriolic attacks and was influential and powerful enough to cause the removal of prominent white officials in various parts of the country, boldly setting aside all precedents by having "stool pigeons" incarcerated in prisons to spy upon the wardens of Federal prisons and using the Federal courts to secure fraudulent commitment papers.
This was done under the administration of Attorney General of the United States, John W. Sargent. We said at the time that she was "riding for a fall" and she has landed in a position as humiliating and as discreditable as that occupied by some of her worst victims. In her first article, she indulges in a brazen laudation of her own achievements and attempts to impress the public with her transcendent ability as a practitioner at the bar.
She has admitted that she had no brilliant law school record to back up her claims to transcendent ability, virtually admitting that according to the English standards of legal capability, she could not have secured a fourth rate legal certificate, much less aspire to recognition as an English barrister. She rode upon the crest of politics to prominence, which has no solid foundation in fact.
She admits that her armor was pierced and that she had an expensive cry, when attacked by enemies, who knew best how to penetrate her most vulnerable armor of defense. She says:
To the charge that I am a bigot and injected the religious issue in the last campaign, the unstinted faith and support of my many Catholic friends is the best and perhaps the only reply. For intolerance and bigotry are motives of the heart and he deep.
It so chances that the man most responsible for securing my appointment by President Harding is Frank Doherty, an attorney of Los Angeles, a Catholic. When the cartoons were picturing me as a sort of modern with burner, I could stand it no longer and called Frank one Sunday afternoon and said, "Surely you and Sarah do not believe these things of me?" And with the friendly reassurance in his warm Irish voice, all my "front" collapsed. I laughed later as I paid the bill for my record long distance and most expensive "cry". What satisfaction my weakness would cause a lot of folks who thought I was "leather-necked!" I do enjoy a clean fight, political, legal or otherwise, but most of us have a vulnerable spot where we can really be hurt and the charge of religious

intolerance found mine.
I have said enough—perhaps too much—about myself. But if what I am to say about prohibition, the most controversial question in the public mind, is to receive fair hearing, there must first be presented a basis for belief that my opinion and my actions are not those of a zealot, unguided by facts and reason.
Why talk about prohibition at all? Certainly I have no overwhelming desire to force acceptance of my views.
That Mrs. Willebrandt has suffered and in a measure has said for her folly is evident from her comment, when she says:
I have lived so much of prohibition for the past eight years that sometimes I wish I might never hear of the subject again. But it is no more possible to avoid prohibition discussion than to avoid breathing. In every newspaper every day of the year, on every street corner where people stop to talk, at every afternoon tea party, in every social gathering of any kind involving any class of society, one subject recurs time after time and is of universal interest.
No political, economic or moral issue has so engrossed and divided all the people of America as the prohibition problem, except the issue of slavery. There were and are millions of people who have not the slightest conception of or interest in the tariff, important as that subject really is to every citizen. There are millions of people who take only small notice of the great problem of international disarmament and the security of nations against war. There are millions of good citizens who are totally unaware of national immigration policies.
But ninety-nine out of one hundred people, whether children in high school or graded school, or men and women in the vigorous or declining years of life, have definite and aggressive views on the wisdom or folly of prohibiting the manufacture and sale of intoxicating liquor and the methods used to bring about enforcement of the law on that subject.
It seems proper to me, therefore, for one who has given eight of the "best" years of her life to an effort to enforce prohibition now to reveal the facts of the situation and give an opinion resulting from such facts and experience. I hope they may help to a clearer, less emotional view of the national problem.
I shall endeavor to answer some of the questions in which the great majority of the people of America are vitally interested.
I shall not discuss the wisdom of adopting prohibition as a national policy. Such an argument is not timely. The essential fact is that imbedded in the Constitution of the United States is the Eighteenth Amendment:
She is absolutely correct in her conclusions. She overlooks the fact that drastic punishment will not check crime or eliminate it, that the teachings of history, the experiences of the past must be taken into consideration. Sane methods must be restored to and that irresponsible.

emotional people cannot either solve or settle great moral issues.
The mistake made is that jail, imprisonment abuse, ridicule will halt crime. You must first make the punishment fit the crime. You cannot elevate misdemeanors to the category of felonies, without bringing the law into disrepute and making a martyr of the person punished. You are sowing "dragons teeth". God help the harvest.
But enough for this week. We shall deal further with this most interesting discussion.
You may do wrong a long time and get away with it, but you will find that retribution is sure. Wrong-doing carries with it punishment.
Trouble has its uses, just as success has its abuses.
Being polite and obliging to white people and to colored ones, too, for that matter will pay in the long run.
Preachers are all right, but many of their people are all wrong and sometimes some of the preachers are all wrong, too.
Some people do not know how to raise children and in some instances the children raise them and cause them "oceans" of trouble.
Some people study how to do wrong just as others plan how to do right.
Hon. John Garland Pollard has many friends hereabouts among the colored people and some of them have expressed their intention to support and vote for him regardless of party affiliations. They are disposed to follow in the foot-steps of Hon. Robert Hughes, Sr.
In changing the size of the paper money, the government did not make it small enough. Its purchasing power is much smaller than its present size.
Practice upright living. The world is corrupt, but heaven is pure and it requires those kind of people to secure admission there.

A REVERIE
You do a beloved poet wrote, "There's nothing true—but heaven." This, after saying how deceitful were the smiles of joy and the tears of woe. To my then youthful soul, the poet's words rang in the sweetest of chimes. Something at last would prove true!
Last week I read in a well-known publication the cold statement of a professional writer and profound theorist that this thing we call heaven is nothing more than a film of the fancy; that there is not an iota of ground for any such belief; that the idea is too silly even for respectable fiction.
He would have it that way. He would wipe away at one sweep, the prop that has sustained many a pure life to the very margin of the grave under the weeping willows.
This modern wise man did not waste any time on the smiles of deceit, or the baby-tea of imaginary woe, although there is much that he might have said to the edification of the human race; but he aimed his poisonous shafts at the most precious of promises.
He seemed to float in his ability to tear down something pure, beautiful good, reassuring.
The heaven of which I have beet hearing from my childhood up, has been one of the strongest of incentives working within me, to make of me a better man. I cannot think of a single atom of harm that my belief in a heaven has done me or any one else about me. I am persuaded that such a belief can never harm me. Just why any individual should buckle on his sword and rush to my rescue from such a belief, is too deep for me to fathom. Perhaps he has nothing else to do. And wants to be busy at something notoriously vivid.
So far as I am concerned, he has wasted his time and energy, though he may realize the few cents the editor paid him for filling the page sensational. I am for anything that goes to make men better, not worse. Aren't you?

Please send me a treatment of medicine. I have been sick all this year. I had the worst colds I have ever had and it was just as loose as it could be. I just spit it up, phlegm, by the mouth full. I have some dizzy spells sometimes and I can hardly walk across the house as I am so weak. I can hardly get up when I sit down and my system is gone clean down. I had a slight stroke and I can hardly talk. I can't deliver my speech very well. So please forward me the medicine at once to hit my case.
