BIRTH OF NATION KICKED OUT OF STATE OF OHIO An Exponent Of Truth and Justice A Square Deal For Every Man Picture Adjudged As Neither Moral Educational Or Amusing; But A Libel On The Colored Race And Menace To Orderly Government NEW YORK, June 16—The Birth Of a Nation" film is barred from the State of Ohio by a decision just rendered by the Ohio Supreme Court, sustaining Vernon M. Reigel, State Director of Education in his contention that the film is not moral, educational or mossing. Mayor-Dayls of Cleveland had ordered the film seized at the opera house, where it was to be shown. The Griffith interests appealed to the Federal Court for the right to show the film, which was granted, but the State Supreme Court now bars it. It was a second attempt to show the same picture in Ohio, which met failure each time. The effect of the decision by the State Supreme Court in this film case, is said by well informed persons, to mean that the film is barred in any city in the entire state. In commenting on the picture, Mayor-Dayls said: It is slanderous and a libel on the colored race, and is designed to stir up and foster racial hatred. I would not be true to my official oath if I allowed the picture to be shown. It is a menace to orderly government." It will be remembered that the "Birth of a Nation" picture is based upon the work of the Ku Klux Klan.

TWO MEN ACCUSED OF MURDER ARE SET FREE One of the big surprises in the trials of murder cases; came Wednesday of this week in Circuit Court No. 10 of criminal causes, when Judge Taylor sustained the demurrer of Attorney Allen in the case of James. Addison, charged jointly with Silm Sherman with murder in the first degree of Max Biederman, a Franklin avenue hardware merchant, who was found dead in his store at 1047 Franklin avenue, last November. The State had the stage all set with twenty witnesses on hand to give testimony in the case. A special prosecutor was employed to assist the State's attorney to see that no legal technicality would save those men from the gallows. But, "providentially," as one of the accused put it, Attorney G. M. Allen immediately set about to see that his clients received justice because he thought they were innocent of the charge against them. The prosecutors he found the main witness, whom from the State was relying to convict Addison and Sherman, was a drug addict. He also found other contradictory evidence among the State witnesses. So, at the trial Wednesday, when the State put its main witness, James M Coughlin on the stand, Allen on cross examination sprang a surprise which resulted in a dismissal of the charges by grilling a confession from Coughlin that he was drug addict. Once getting that confession from the State's main witness, in open court, it was easy for the attorney for the defense to show that such a person was utterly unreliable and upon filling a demurrier to the evidence, Judge M. Coughlin insisted the demurrier and Addison went free. The state then, upon recommendation of the assistant circuit attorney, dismissed the case against Sherman who was jointly indicted with Addison. Many congratulations have come to Attorney Allen for the part he played in saving these two men. It will be remembered that Sherman, after his arrest, attempted to make his escape from police headquarters by jumping out of a window. He was recaptured by police after he was killed. The only comment Attorney Allen would make was: "I always have a deep interest in my clients and work hard to see that justice is done them. Many innocent men have suffered because of lack of sympathetic service." M. E.

URBAN LEAGUE NOTES Industrial Department Employment through the Urban League Office has shown a greater degree of stability for the past two months than it has at any time in the past two years. With the close of school, however, our office has been somewhat crowded with boys and girls seeking summer employment. Quite a few have been successful. The Urban League wishes to encourage young folk, for it is through them that larger opportunities can come to Negroes. There are many employers who have little faith in the Negroes ability to do technical work, but the young folk push themselves to the front and make openings for other Negroes. In next week's Argus there will appear a human interest story of a St. Louis girl who started on a job and now has a position with the same company she started working with.

Dorothy Polk brought down the house when she sang "Sweet Little You," and did a pretty little dance in accompaniment with all the maneuvers of a professional actress. The Dancer Dance, in which Miss Martina Dorsey backward on the tips of her toes across-stage together with a difficult backbend, was the star feature on the program: from the point of technique, as was "Bulerlas" by little 3-year old Mildr. Lorraine Franklin, from the point of age and size, she was the youngest person on the program. "The Charlston" by Gwendlyn Tyler closed the performance. The cause and grace with which the participants danced, solos and ensemble—showed their training had been thorough and reflected credit on their teacher, Mrs. Franklin; under whose personal direction, they were presented. The costumes were beautiful and all of them were designed by Mrs. Franklin and executed by the pupil and their parents and Friends. Misses Chlotilde Hudlin, Virginia Givens, Mesdames A. M. Blair, Frederica Young, Harry Douglas, W. O. Emory, Donzella Dorsey, Alice Polk Davis, Sadle Williams and Solena Bordeaux served as chaparrons. Stage makeup was superintended by Misses Grace Nichols, Marietta Douglas, Margaret Lorick and Mr. Maurice Grant. In every respect, "The Dance Reve" was a decided success. MRS. HERRIOT PURSUES HER MUSICAL STUDIES AT CHICAGO UNIVERSITY Mrs. Adelaide M. Herriot; 4322a Avenue east, left for Chicago on the 17th inst. for "stay of eight weeks" to study voice culture under the noted coach, Prof. Oscar Saenger of New York and Chicago. Mrs. Herriot is a graduate of Grand Conservatory of Music of New York City and possesses a rare coloraturd soprano voice. She has been heard on many occasions. She has made recent successful tours to various cities throughout the South and East where she sang to delightful audiences. "Following are some of the press comments: Atlanta Independent—Madam Adelaide M. Herriot is indeed one of the finest and best trained singers of her race. The recital was held at the Morehouse College Chapel. She received the greatest ovation of any singer who has visited Atlanta in years. She is the one singer of her race who reaches high F "perfectly." Shaw University, Raleigh, N. C. "Mrs. Herriot is a singer of unruly ability and charm. The beauty of her voice, her gracious manner and perfect stage decorum won the students as evidenced by the applause. She gave us a heavy program of rare beauty and range." Johnna C. Smith U., Charlotte, N.C. — Mrs. Herriot is a coloratura soprano, with pleasing personality and poise, possessing a voice of wild tenor range, clear, with pure, bird-like tone, quality, flexible and especially pleasing in the high register. Her versatility enables her to express a remarkable variety of moods and shades of passion, a vivid preception of beauty that pervades life. Mrs. Herriot's work serves the corsummate skill of the artist's song. With ease and charm she takes the high F in the "Shadow Song" much like Galli Curcl. noted for this range of voice. Mrs. Herriot was President of the St. Louis Musical Association, and through this medium has done much to advance St. Louis' position in the musical world. Only a few weeks ago "listeners THE ST.

ANARCHY IN ACTION What a Confederate Veteran Said of Mob Violence Every mob is a stab at the sovereignty of the people, and a malign denial to them by force of arms of the right to the freedom of orderly government. The fire bells would ring out the alarm and the streets of any of our cities would swarm with armed and indignant people if they were told that a gang of intruders coming to expel their chosen judges would attack them, and put irresponsible and vicious men chosen by the marauders. In their places. Yet that is the mission of the mob when it arms to storm a jail and put a prisoner to death. If men would only reflect what treason mob isw to their homes and institutions, mobs would be well night impossible. Aside from this attack on government, the evils of the mob have all, almost boundless sweep in all the relations of life. Can any man, in the wildest flight of the brain, picture Robert E. Lee or John B. Gordon, no matter what the charge against the criminal joining a mob to break down the government out to hang him? Why not? Because they are types of courage and honor, and justice and veneration for law, and all these cry out against such an act. —The late Judge Thomas G. Jones. Current Events Hello, Auntie. Hello; Mabel; Anythings of interest? Yes, auntie. I finished an article in the Argus a few moments ago, on the 5th annual session of the Pennsylvania State Medical Association. I read with much pleasure of the wonderful operations, performed by several of the attending physicians. I noticed that there were expressions of surprise from some of the great surgeons of the other group present, at the skill and doxorty shown by the Negro surgeons. On reading this auntie, I was forced to ask myself the question, "why the surprise?" Why Mabel, that can be answered easily. It is due to the fact, that the majority of the other group, like a great many of our own, believe that a Negro's ability in whatever profession he may follow, is naturally inferior to that of others. There would not be occasion for surprise of the other group, if the Negro was the opportunity occasionally to demonstrate his ability, instead of giving him his ability, show what he can do, the other group spends the time closing and locking the door of opportunity in the Negro's face and if he does something in spite of opposition, there is always surprise. The Negro youth should be given opportuni- The Collure Style Show and Dance given by the Beauty Culturist League Local No. 29.

OWENS The_Consolations_of_Literature : I am attempting to tell why the "working man"—by whom I mean the "whole" brotherhood of industry" —should set on mental culture and that, knowledge which is wisdom, a value so high—only not supreme—subordi- nate to the will of God, the nature of religion itself; and that is, that therein he shall, so surely find rest from labor; succer under its bur- dens; forgetfulness of its cares; com- posure in its annoyances. It is not always that the busy day is followed by the peaceful night. It is not always that fatigue wins sleep. Often some vexation outside of the toll that has exhausted the frame, some loss in bargain; some loss by an insolence; some unforeseen rise or fall in prices; some triumph or mean or fraudulent competitor; 'the laws delay, the proud man's contumely, the insolence of office, or some of the spurs that patient merit from the unworthy takes"—some self-reproach, perhaps follows you within the door; chills the fireside, sows the pillow with thorns; and the dark care is lost in the last wakening thoughts and haunts the vivid dream. Happy then is he who has laid up in youth, and has his heart in all for a genuine passion of passionate love of her balm of hard mind; of surer and more healthful charms than "moppy or mandragon, or all the drowsy syrups of the world"—by that single taste, by that single capacity, he may bound in a moment into the still regions of delightful studies and be at rest. Let the case of a busy lawyer testify to the priceless value of the love of reading. He comes home, his temples throbbing, his nerves shattered from a trial of a week, surprised and alarmed by the charge of the judge, and pale with anxiety about the verdict of the next morning not at all satisfied with what he himself has done, though he does not yet see how he can improve it. With a superhuman effort he opens a book and in a twinkling of an eye he is looking into the full "orb of Homeric or Miltonic song" Well may he prize that endearled charm, so effectual and safe, without which the brain had long ago been chilled by paralysis, or set on fire by insanity! Let us, then, prize literature as Denham 'describes them; "Bookx should to one of these four ends conduce. For wisdom, plety, delight or use"— and agree with Robert Heath that: "Learning is more profound When in few solid authors it may be found. to enter any of the universities and colleges of this country, that he may desire. The Negro doctor should be given the opportunity to enter the operating rooms of the hospitals of this country. If the doctor of the other group is a superior surgeon to ours, he should be given the opportunity of experimenting on all of his folks and the most of ours. They say, "practice makes perfect," and the more he has upon which to practice the better he should be. It is not the color of the man's skin that makes him superior, but the opportunity he has had to develop. Amntic, I hope, the day will come when they will realize this. America is called the land of equal opportunity" and the black man. I trust we have more admiration us who believe that a man is inferior or because his face is dark. I fear we have, Mabel, but I am hoping that this relic of slavery will soon pass to the beyond. Ability should never be measured by the color of a man's skin, because color like beauty is only skin deep; and within the cranium of the darkest member of our group, maybe, and often is found the brains of a genius. We have but to visit the laboratory of Carver of Tuskegee and see what his genius has done with the potato. Good-bye, Mabel. Good-bye, Auntie. pens are wired and dried.

The Whitmans can always be counted on for a lively, artistic entertainment, but this time they have crowded novelties and features into a revue that far distances their previous efforts. The show is making a big hit and the crowds are growing larger with each performance. A six-piece jazz band under the leadership of Prof. Shapp, helps to make the production run smoothly in rhythm and harmony. There is a bunch of good looking girls who can sing and dance gracefully. Many unusual features are introduced. Alberta and Alice Whitman, with "Bort," as a male impersonator, are teamed together with a song, "Who Calls You Sweet Mamma Now," and do a sprightly dance that goes over big. Alice is often seen in the chorus and also puts over a solo buck that wins her usual applause. Alberta has an artistic vamp number "Wait Till You See My Gal," with the young ladies in brilliant attire, and graceful dancing. Essie Whitman impersonates, in dramatic pose a dranken and has two song numbers that score hits. Little Albert is doubled with Billie Adams, another tot, with fun and dancing that go over screamingly. Another juvenile pair, Ernestine and James Rodgers, are wonderful with fancy buck and toe dancing. W. B. Johnson and comedian Sam Jenkins have a comedy sketch, "The Stolen Coat and the Spirits." Johnson is also seen with Princess Wee Wee singing and dancing "Tell me, What is Your Name." The princess, a tiny edition of womanhood, is also in other features. Mattie Dorsey presents two blues numbers, assisted by little Billie. Ernest Machall makes a big hit with his clarinet blues. The chorus numbers are winners, especially the one with the "Charleston" dances it's a great show all thru. New Show Next Week The Whitman Sisters and "Their Gang" will be held over for another week, by inanimous request. They will offer an entirely new show with songs, dances, comedy and features that have never been presented on this stage. Their second week is said to be their best. Pay Day Starts Monday Beginning Monday, "Pay Day" will be resumed. Every person who enters the theatre on Mondays will be given a pay envelope containing a valuable coupon, eagle stamps or money. THE STAR The most notorious underworld cafe in Vienna—the Simplississimus—frequented by colorful Apache bands and a few curious, courageous tourists—is the unusual locale of "The Crimson Runner," starring Prisella Dean, which will be shown at the Star Theatre this Saturday. It is a dashing tale, of a daring female Robin Hood who rose out of the chaos and confusion that enveloped postwar Vienna, terrifying the aristocracy and tormenting the police, until a handsome young Count won her heart and hand. "Beauty and the Bad 'Man'," the film featuring Mabel Ballirn and Forrest Stanley will be the Sunday special. It is the tale of a young talented girl who got her big chance to make good on her glorious voice thru the philanthropy of a California miner who was considered a bad man by the community. "Is Love Everything?" will be the Monday feature. "Tainted Money" and "Westerdays' Wife," will be the specials on Tuesday; and "The Legends of Hollywood" will be the Wednesday headliner. "The Price of Pleasure." Universal Jewel co-starring Virginia Valli and Norman Kerry, will be the feature attraction, on Thursday and, Friday. The story is of a shop girl who enjoys one week of the pleasures. She then becomes the wife of the sun of an aristocratic family, and then is thrown on her own resources. Dorothy Devore and Matt Moore in "The Narrow Street" will be the Jestamere Theatre special this Saturday. Dorothy Mackaill, John Bowers, Hobart Bosworth, Myrtle Stedman, Gladys Brockwell, Olive Tell, Paul Nicholson, Lora Sonderson, Louise Mackintosh are some of the famous stars of the screen who are in the cast of "Chickie," the attraction for Sunday, Monday and Tuesday; It is the story of a poor typist who loves for a millionaire husband and the luxuries this wealth can provide. Dorothy Mackaill in the title role finds her millionaire, but, as in real life, she finds there are many drawbacks to the marriage of wealth and poverty. After finding nothing but bitterness in the bottom of her cup she marries for love. Heart interest, pathos, tragedy, comedy-all are found in this picture. "Idle Tongues," a love story of Cap. Cod folk will be shown on Wednesday. The special for Thursday and Friday will be "Recompense" Marla Prevost and Monte Blue are the stars. It tells the gripping truth of a tremendous love that held a man and woman fast. The stirring action moves from Paris of Armistice Day to Africa of the desolate velts, and thence jumps to London, when the drama comes to a climax. THE COMET *Peta Negri in "The Charmer" will be the Comet Theatre special this Saturday. It is a story of two immigrants—who arrive in America from Strain and who attempt to penetrate the harrier of the immortal four-hundred through the popularity of one as a Broadway dancer.

Smith, father of the two young artist whose etchings have attracted attention in Paris, Rome and New York, and who is himself well known as a leading artist by virtue of active interest he maintains in musical headquarters. New York City, is again in Europe. In a recent letter, he very fully describes the baseball league maintained in Paris by the colored Americans there. The Chel Club contingent of New York musicians located in the French capital have a team in the league. Other teams represent the American legion, the American students and the fourth is called the Bedford-Eco team. While the Cletfes have so far proven better musicians than baseball players, Noble Smith says they provide an interesting game, and are much appreciated by the Parisians as well as the Expatriates. At the initial game of the season, the American Ambassador tossed out the first ball, and the Chel club band 25 pieces provided music for the occasion and banjo they made up for the barwaying deficiencies of their co-workers. However, they won the game against a team of ex-college students by a score of 13-12. Jones, Billy Taylor, Joe Faulk, Louis Mitchell, Eugene Parker, Bert Jones, Greely Franklin, George Brascher and Albert A. Smith with Bobby Jones as captain, made up the Chel Club team.

Colored Ball Players Are Real Stars, Expert Says BALTIMORE, Md., June 17—Much has been said relative to the relative merits of colored baseball players and white big leaguers. Many experts have advanced the opinion that many stars on Negro teams would easily find berths on nines in American and National Leagues were their skins any other color but black. One such opinion was given space by Roger Pippen (white) sports writer on the staff of the Baltimore Evening News. It follows: "For the first time in four or five years, I saw the Black Sox, Baltimore's representatives in the Eastern Colored League, play in their park in South Baltimore. Their ability astonished me. If colored players were permitted in the National, American and International Leagues, three or four of the Sox would have their names in big type in every sport page of the country." "Beckwell, shortstop of the locals, could play with any club in either big league. He is a giant, six feet one, and weighing over 200 lbs. He is as agile as a cat, grabs grounders on either side and throws from all angles. Against the Royal Giants he came tearing in for a slow roll past the defense, and he stepped up the ball and gave it an underhand flip to first. It was a picture of Mike Doolan, formerly of the Philies and Baltimore Reds, at his best. Fielding, however, is not Beck with's best point. He's the home run hitter of the Sox. Nine times this year he has crashed the sphere over the fences at Maryland Park. He hit a liner off Rector of the Brooklyners, and he has scored a board in center field, at Orlando Park. A right hand hitter, he takes a long swing and when his 200 pounds meet the apple it surely rides. "Rojo, the Black Sox catcher, plays in the Cuban Winter League, and it is a treat to, see him peg. John McGraw of the Giants is credited with having declared that Rojo would be an asset to any club in the National. Another nifty fielder with the Sox is Day, second sacker. He handled 12 chances, four of them difficult against the Brooklyn. Twice he went over back of first to get grounders on the run. Wilson, first baseman, is also an impressive player—Baltimore seems to be approaching this class of ball the Sox play. In two Sundays they have totalled over 12,000 admissions. —After one has reared a family of children then is one qualified to express an opinion on how it should be done.

All four of the young ladies are graduates of 1925. Black Fall, the little bantam weight sensation from Cuba, continued to mark 'em up to his credit last week when he scored his fifth victory in his fifth fight since he entered this country, by easily outpointing Summy Hamfield, a white New Yorker in a ten round bout at the Commonwealth Sport Club in New York last Saturday. Paul Berlenbach, who recently won the world's middle weight crown and Tiger Flowers, the Georgia Deacon, will meet in a ten round no decision contest at Benton Harbor, Michigan, July 4. If Berlenbach does not back out of a match with the Georgian beauty again, the bout will not entail the loss of Berlenbach's precious new title, unless Tiger registers a knock out. The Italian Hospital Boxing fund bouts in which Harry Wills is scheduled to meet Charlie Weinert, have been set for July 2 at the Polo Grounds, following their postponement from an earlier date, because of the disability of Mickey Walker, who is scheduled to meet Harry Greb on the same card. Negotiations are said to be under way for the signing of Gene Tunney, the senator for New York, who died in October. Gibbons by a knock out in the twelfth round of a scheduled 15 round match recently and Harry Will, the Brown panther, for a 15 round match early next fall. De Hart Hubbard is scheduled to make his first appearance since his triumphant world's record jump at Chicago last week, at Boston, this Saturday, June 20, in a track meet under the auspices of the N. E. A. A. W. Ned Fourdin, former world's broad jump champion will also participate. Hubbard was the big attraction at the Public Schools Field Championship meet which was held in his home town, Cincinnati, last Monday. He was acting in the capacity of an official of the affair in which the 14 grade schools of the city participated, but the majority of his time was spent in telling the many enthusiasts who crowded around him how he achieved his remarkable victories. That Hubbard will some day pass the inch and an eighth that now separates him from 26 feet in the broad jump is the opinion of Fielding H. Yosk. Director of Athletics of the University of Michigan. Time and training will help the fighter reach the best known of some of the best known American athletics preceded that of Hubbard as record holder; the broad jump.

District Court here last week. Smith had the honor of winning one of the two verdicts that have been rendered in prohibition-violation cases in the court in the last two years. PUBLIC IS VICTIMIZED BY FOOD SUBSTITUTES WASHINGTON, June 17.—Enforcement of the pure food law has been made ineffective by manufacturers of adulterated foodstuffs, according to Dr. Harvey W. Wiley, former chief of the bureau of chemistry. In a conference with the secretary of President Coolidge, Dr. Wiley declared that the law has been paralyzed by a series of executive orders issued by various secretaries of government. Dr. Wiley said, because most of the preservatives and adulterating materials—such as bansoate of soda, aluminum, sulfite and bleached flour—are used in preparing ready-to-serve foods. He urged that the president investigate his charges. Dr. Wiley was chief of the bureau of chemistry when the pure food act was passed in 1906. His office holding was marked by continuous controversy with food manufacturers. Best' anecdote you tell is the end when you are carving the roast, we crybody's hungry.

KLAN TO PARADE AT NATION'S CAPITAL It is reported that 150,000 Klansmen will take part in a parade in Washington, D.C., early in August. Somehow we are wont to believe that such a spectacle at the nation's Capital is impossible. Yet, when one stops to think of how silent President Coolidge has been on the Klan question, a little more tight, possibly, is shed on this most important matter. It will be remembered that during the political campaign last fall, all effort on the part of many advisers, admirers, and political friends of the President, was made to urge him to denounce the hooded band as a menace to orderly government, but as far as we remember, Coolidge kept cool and was silent as the Sphinx, on that all important question, so far as the public was concerned. Whether the President's silence on this matter has anything to do with the mammoth parade that is to be staged in Washington, we do not know, but if the statement is true that the parade is really to take place, then we say that the suspicion expressed by some of us regarding the President's attitude toward the Klan has been fully justified. Everybody knows that the Ku Klux Klan is a lawless organization, born in the spirit of intolerance and nurtured on race and religious hatred. Its policies are against every fundamental law of the land as touching citizenship rights. President Coolidge knows that the Klan would deny the Negroes, Jews and Catholics the right to hold-public office because of their race or religious beliefs. To do this is a violation of the letter and spirit of the Constitution of the United States. It is the duty of the President, therefore, being fully advised of these facts to prevent such a parade in the interest of law and order, as well as upholding the spirit of the Constitution of the United States. We are discussing this affair in the light of the responsibility. The President of the United States is directly responsible for whatever goes on in the District of Columbia. An executive order from, him will stop the parade. It is up to him. The President, of course, knows that to allow the Klan to stage a regalia parade at the nation's Capital is to give governmental sanction to the work of the Klan. He knows that such sanction will be an official insult to a large group of loyal American citizens, namely, the Negroes, Jews and Catholics. The President knows that in these groups may be found a very, very large constituency who loyally supported him for the high and exalted office he now holds. All of these facts are of the outstanding sort that cannot be easily hidden under a hush. As to just what the President will do under these circumstances, the public will be slow to, venture an opinion, except to get a picture of the way the President has treated this subject in the past,—like a Sphinx. Despite his silence, the fair minded people of the nation will protest against any public, Klan parade at the nation's Capital. This may be done, not only by writing the President himself, but your senator and congressman who also have taken the oath of office to uphold the Constitution of the United States. C. G. Williams of, Jefferson City is quoted as saying: "Malone and Dr. Perry made a mistake in not standing by the governor in the Lincoln University controversy." If he is correctly quoted, we hasten to answer and say: Take heed that you do not wake up too late to see your mistake in betraying your people. These men did the only honorable thing under the circumstances whether it pleased the governor or not, therefore, the children of the state, in generations to come, will rise and call them "blessed," while the mark of Benedict Arnold will follow him who would rob the children of his race of the proper kind of education just because it pleases the governor. A short while ago, a mob of nearly a thousand, stormed the jail at Dallas, Texas, bent upon lynching Frank and Lorenzó Noel, two brothers, incarcerated in the jail charged with murder. The mob was repulsed and put to flight under fire from the officers' guns. Following close on the heels of this incident, however, these two men were put through a form of trial, hastily convicted, and sentenced to die at the earliest possible moment allowed under the law. We are informed that at the time of conviction, the mob spirit was much in evidence in and about the Court House. Certain mob leaders were promised that the victims would be "hanged" if no further efforts were made to "take them by force," hence, all that was left to be done in this case was going through the motion. We have a similar case right here in Missouri—James Crump, whose death sentence was recently affirmed by the State Supreme Court. Crump was convicted in Montgomery County, of killing a sheriff at Mexico during a revolver battle between him and the sheriff. When the trial of Crump was held, the local newspaper, The Ledger, commented thus: "There were men present when the verdict was returned who were "ready to go" if a life sentence had been given the murderer. We have learned this group was composed of both Andram and Montgomery county men and that the rope was resting in a suitcase in the hall of the court house there. The only thing that saved Crump from hanging was the verdict in the case. "Had there been any doubt about the hanging of Crump at Montgomery City, he would never have been allowed to leave there alive." This looks to us like the court acting with a mob club over its head. There is not a fair minded man in the state who will for one moment, say that anyone could get justice at the hands of any court thus dominated. This ought not to be the case. There ought to be some operative power that could step in and interfere in cases of this kind. It seems that Governor Baker is endeavoring to impress upon the people of the state that it will do no good to petition him for a cause, be it ever so worthy. We wonder if this is indicative that a big office, like that of governor of a great state, is too big for some men. PAGE EIGHT A NEW FORM OF MOB LAW THE ST. LOUIS ARGUS, FRIDAY, JUNE 19, 1925 MUSIC, ART, DRAMA AND LITERATURE By RICHARD JACKSON the ridiculous, quick detection and miration of the kind hearted and pittable nature, their Godliness aversion to ill-treatment and in tice, in the popular lines of civil music." The average American citizen knows little about African music, and the majority of them, if they were asked their conception of the music of this distant continent, would most likely give a picture of a group of natives beating tom-toms, pleicking queer string instruments and mumbling wied tunes. But Hokon Okokon, a native of Africa, who is a student in one of the country's leading Negro colleges, gives a different version of the music of his country. Mr. Okokon in writing on music and its enjoyment in Africa, declared: "The Africans are passionately fond of music and have many ingeniously contrived musical instruments, most of which are of their own inventions "For brevity and convenience, 1 put African music into two classes. The first is that which gives entertainment in a purely African native display, and the second, that which gives him entertainment in either parity or entirely Caucasian display, as they both together go to the preservation of his tradition and satisfaction of his happy nature. The first much liked by foreigners who have the privilege of living an African town during a moonlight night, or days of general merchant, can only be somewhat understood by supposing yourselves as going several miles to one of the Native African towns to visit a purely native display. While, yet after off, listen and you will hear on the wings of the whirl, soft, smooth, melodious blending of human voices, now rising, now fading, now awakening, gently as the soft sea breeze wafts to the sun heated, const to cool the stream of a hot summer day. Nearer and nearer you will tame you can actually distinguish the voices of the leaders from those of the responders, a they enter with their parts and resume their rest in a most perfect oneness and harmony. Now you are closer. Now you are on the scene. You face a clean open air enclosure, something like the Roman arena. On the right, seated are the worthies and high-borns of the town and neighborhood stately dressed, and on your left is a sea of humanity composed of the spectators, strangers and the general public in their various apparels and costumes. In your front and behind are the chief singers and their responsors, all gaily expirienced and in the center the dancers and drummers. "The mother drum, as it is called, is a wooden hollow substance about thirty inches long, cleverly carved, with one side covered with a special soft, clean brown skin, so worked on the wood that when hit, it produces a sound like that of a bass drum. With this mother drum are two others, smaller, yet equally made with comparatively smaller sounds. The fourth is a round carrion pot with a small round "mouth" well moulded, well designed for its specialuse. With these are three others representing the chimes, the cymbal and the ket the drum, each with a sound of its own. These are the musical instruments. Now the signal is given. The first of the two chief singers begins a song in a familiar key, without a book and without a note. The responders on his side an answer to the tune and tone. The opposite singer follows, is likewise responded by his men; and so they go alternatively. They are singing of the love of God to man or of the life and foldes of the towr or of the description of a beautiful man or woman, or of the hopes and disappointments that life presents or of such unusual happenings as the keen observation, so typical in the African expert singer so to them. "Suddenly, expert hands are on the instruments, the music is complete and the blending work out to an inexpossible melody. Now the fascinating. Beauteous dancers in their number step in with their supple forces laden with gold, jewels, diamonds and silks of value. Gently they begin their graceful motions which increase gradually with the intensity of the music and song to a display of guitars and gestures wonderful in time, in harmony and connelly. "You are spellbound. Here is the sight of unsurpassing grandeur; the eye sees, the mind comes to think and away fly the troubles, the sorrows the cares of the world; lifes is here again worth living, and thus the ultimate aim of art are realized. As for the more classical music, this is represented in ball-rooms, in the churches where either the English language or its translation is in common use, and in social functions, concerts and various displays. In the ballroom, the latest sets of musical instruments are in use, played by the Africans, either under their entire management or that of European band masters. Sometimes as a variation from technical compositions "jobe" "gombé" or such pieces are played, they are West African Folk Songs put in sprite and airs. They are always a great favorite with the people and often provoke a mild nirth. "Musical instruments as organs, pipins, violins, accordions, Zitches, banjos, harps and the like are come and aptly used. "Pipe organs of one or more keyboards, are prominent equipment in all decent churches, upon which the organists display their natural musical ability with compositions, either of their own or those of foreign countries. "A good voice is considered a common possession to everybody, and vocal music in many West African churches" and social functions is hard to beat. In conclusion, the Africans believe in music as the one and only art that transports the feeling of the soul, that soothes the troubled heart, that blinds the poor to the rich, that awakens the perform and lonely life that characterizes the performer, chatter boxes, their laughs, windpipes, tum-tums, pot-drums, they have handed down the tradition of their ancestors. And now, they are handling down to boistery their keen sense of the ridiculous, quick detection and admiration of the kind hearted and hospitable nature, their Godliness and aversion to ill-treatment and injustice, in the popular lines of civilized music. Squibbs Harry F. Burleigh, the internationally known baritone singer and composer, sailed with his son, Alston Burleigh, a music instructor in the public schools of Washington, for Paris, where the latter will continue his studies in music. The Burleighs plan to give several concerts while in Europe. They will make a short tour through Spain and England before returning to the United States. Los Angeles is all agag over Mine. Florence Cole Talbert, coloratura soprano, who will give a farewell recital in the const city next Monday, following which she will depart for Italy. She will visit the chief art centers of Europe, where she will face the leading music critics of the old world. A Florence Cole Talbert committee and a Cosmopolitan Art Club have been organized in Los Angeles in honor of the celebrated artist. The latter body is composed of various nationalities interested in the promotion of the arts. Mr. Charles S. Gilpin, who stands with Paul Robeson as American's leading Negro dramatic actor, was the guest star of the Rose Valley Player in three special performances at Morton Pa., last week. Mr. Gilpin is now playing his old famous role as Emperor Jones with Jasper Dreter as the cookey trader.

A Statement Of My Case By James Crump St. Louis, Mo., June 8, 1925 To the Editor of The St. Louis Argus St. Louis, Mo., June 8, 1820 To the Editor of the St. Louis Argus: James Crump, now in the city jail sentenced to hang on July 17, at Mont- gomery, Mo., for the murder of Sherif Bilum of Mexico, Mo., on the night of Feb. 10, 1824, at 11 p., makes the following statement: "I want to call the attention of the public to the true facts which I now relate, to show to the public that I did the shooting in self defense. When Mr. Blum first fired five shots at me, while I was feeling, one shot took effect and I fell to my knee. I then regained consciousness and drew my revolver and fired three shots back. To prove that I did this in self defense, take the statements of Dr. Strode and Dr. Carl, the first two gentlemen to examine his wounds. They testified for the state, and said, "A man with such a wound it takes 50 seconds," and it looks impossible for him to shot him first because of the distance from the place where his voice was first heard and the place where his body was found. It was impossible for him to have drawn his revolver and staggered 50 feet over four railroad tracks. This shows that I did the shooting after I was shot. "Listen, readers! Read carefully! The doctors stated that this man could not have lived over 36 seconds, therefore he might have shot me first. "The next statement I want to make is this: Two railroad employees, Mr. Hamilton and Mr. Acum, stated in the presence of Prosecuting Attorney Halieringworth and five other officers and spectators, that they did not see me in the railroad yard that night; and at my trial Mr. Hamilton and Mr. Acum testified for the state. Mr. Acum at that time declared that when he attempted to throw the switch, I shot out the light, but at neither of my trials did they produce the switch light glass for evidence. "calling your attention back to the night this trouble occurred, the said Mr. Acum and Mr. Hamilton came into the Prosecutor's office and I said, 'Ask Mr. Hamilton and Mr. Acum if they saw me in the switch yards' that night.' Their reply was 'No, we have not seen him tonight.' For what reason would these gentlemen get on the stand and swear my life away? About things I did not do, and things they did not see, they really rewarded me evil, and for what? "I would like for the public to answer. As I've had respect for each and every one and treated each and every one as a gentleman to the best of my knowledge, as I was a citizen of that town about 15 years, and this is the first time that I have caused the officials or officers any trouble; as I've lived respectably among my associates. Negroes and whites, throughout the period of time of 15 years—and as I am so unfortunate as to be in this trouble, and as the time is drawing near, the days and hours passing by, I am on the mercy of the people to save me from the gallows. "I have a poor gray haired mother and think what sorrow that will bring to her, if her only son has to go to the gallows because he has not his justice in this trouble. I must say, this is an awful hard pill to swallow. "I want the public to consider the contents of this article, and give me their deepest sympathy, and also pray for me, as I am a poor, unfortunate Negro." JAMES CRUMP. City Jall, St. Louis, Mo 200 KLANSMEN VISIT NEGRO CHURCH IN N. J. ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., June 17.—Two hundred Kluix Klansmen accepted the invitation of the pastor and congregation of a newly organized church at Pleasantville, and visited the services last Sunday clad in full regalia. The Klansmen formed in the center of the main thoroughfare of the city and marched to the chapel, where a crowd of nearly 630 people had gathered. The leader of the klansmen took a seat in the pulpit with the pastor. The pastor spoke in favor of the men of the invisible empire. After the services, the klan body made a liberal contribution and filed out of the church in an orderly manner. FRIEDMAN'S ECONOMY SALE 1800-1802-1804 FRANKLIN AVE. OLD BUILDINGS TORN DOWN!

She was considered the oldest colored person in New England. "Aunt", Fanny was born a slave on the estate of General Early of Green County, Va., five years after the war of 1812. She was with the family long after freedom had been declared, but in her old age was left on her own resources. She shifted around and finally settled in the St. Monica's Home, where she stayed for the last fourteen years. Aunt Fanny was alert to the last. She would often relate many interesting stories of the 40's, 60's, 70's and 90's, and even liked to talk about the great World War.

From an Interview with the Riffian General by Lafcatha Egienias, N. Y. American Foreign Correspondent Abd-Ek-Krim, the great Arab general who is leading the offense of the Riffians against Spain and France in northern Africa, was recently interviewed by a daring Spanish reporter, who ventured into the very center of the country, her story. Although much publicity has been given to the European side of the struggle, this gives the first intimate view of the Riffians' stand. Abd-Ek-Krim, in a frank and open way, gave the following message to the correspondant that the world might know the true position of the North African in the war that is now raging in their country: "I am the chosen representative of 200,000 Riffles who are today in a life-and-death struggle with two foreign powers, who about fifteen, years ago, apportioned among themselves, in a distant city of Europe, our mountains, valleys, rivers, pitched tents, walled cities, as well as every living being in Northwestern Africa. "But obliterating titles is not being in possession, Spain, to her sorrow, discovered the fallacy of such high-handed aggression. In the futile attempt she sacrificed tens of thousands of her citizens, causing an intense home crisis and a $400,000 shortage in her budget. And now France is carefully preparing for a similar catastrophe. Desire Peace We are not asking for anything from Spain or from France. We simply wish to be left alone in our ancestral mountains and tablelands, to evolve a civilization of our own, "We have no national ambitions other than to resent the unasked-for protectorates of foreign nations, whose only aim is to exploit the riches of our land in their own way, and for their own advantages, at the expense of making us slaves and paupers. "We are not rebels, because we have never recognized 'the sphere of influence invasion of our country by Spain and France. We never wanted to fight Spain. We do not want to threaten us.' Three years ago I asked General Castro-Guerra, when he was at Mollil to inform his Government at Madrid that we Riflans were willing to go more than half way to have peace with Spain. I offered to make a treaty with Spain to give them every economic preference to exploit the mineral resources of our country. We do not even put in any iridistant claim. We were willing that Spain and even France, should keep in their possession some of our cities in which, although unjustly, they had established themselves. We only wished to be left alone to administer our country in our own way. They insolently refused and ignored all my advances of peace. "Now they fill the newspapers of the world with untrue stories about the Riff Rebellion." Against whom are we rebellting? Use Treacherous Tactics Herefore foreign powers have ruled us by turning our leaders traitors against their own, but I warn that in the present struggle with France, every African soldier fighting for France, when captured by us will be dealt with as traitors; and France need not complain, for she herself knows how she dealt with such traitors. Want Independence A year before that I sent a special plenipotentiary to London to lay our case before Lord Curzon. Our Riff representative stayed in London for five months, attempting to interview the British Foreign Minister, but was unsuccessful, and returned to us dejected. On learning of the French preparations to attack us, I repeated my declaration that we wanted peace with them. The French, too, rejected more insolently than Spain, our proffers. We are not hostile to the foreigner. Even today I am conducting serious negotiations with an American group for the exploitation of our mineral resources. We want progress and we are anxious to introduce modern methods to our country, but we want to work out our own salvation ourselves. We have coal, lead and copper mines waiting for development. We need capital. Spain is poor and is unable to develop her own home resources. She is not able to be of any assistance to us. But she has willed that none other should have this privilege. I again repeat, we want peace, And so far as Spain is concerned, after LET THE ARGUS BE YOUR SHOPPING GUIDE. IF YOU DO NOT SEE YOUR MERCHANT'S ADVERTISEMENT IN THE ARGUS, ASK HIM THE REASON. DR. MOTON TO ADDRESS MADAM WALKER AGENTS INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., June 15—The National Convention of Damam G. J. Walker agents, largest exclusively Negro women's business convention in the world, will meet August 12, 13 and 14 at Atlanta, Ga. Advance indications are that this will be the most largely attended and beneficial assembly of these women ever held. More than 30,000 agents are members of the convention and reside in every state of the Union, Hawaii, Europe, South America, the West Indies, Alaska, Africa and the Philippines Islands. These agents have their own clubs and will send a large number of delegates to Atlanta. On the night of the 12th a special reception will be held for the delegates, at which time some of the country's prominent business leaders will speak and a general welcome to Atlanta be extended. Thursday evening, August 14, Major Robert R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee, Inst., and president of the National Negro Business League, address the delegates the public. Medical and educational men are scheduled to address the sessions on their respective phases of life. Several features of entertainment are planned, among which will be a city wide beauty, contest. At this event Atlanta's most beautiful girl will be found and showered with beffiting honors on the closing night of the convention. From the plans now being made, Atlanta, for entertainment, will outdo Detroit, Cleveland, Detroit, Philadelphia and other cities in which the city has been held from year to year, which is indeed planning a great deal. Madam A'Lella Walker is president of the convention and will be as will other officers of the Madam. J. Walker Manufacturing Company. CHICAGO PREPARING TO RECEIVE MEDICAL MEN Colored Professional Men From All Over Country Will Gather For Meet Ang. 25--28 CHICAGO, Ill., June 17—Windy City is preparing to entertain the colored medical men of the country in grand style, when they gather here August 25, for the annual meet of the National Association, which will hold sessions for three days. Leading colored physicians, dentists and pharmacists of the country are expected to attend in larger numbers than ever before. Elaborate plans are underway for giving the association a highly effective meeting from a business and professional view, as well as a social standpoint. Sessions will be held in the spacious Wendell Phillips High School, where arrangements have been made to exhibit the latest medical, dental, pharmaceutical and clinic supplies. Leading men of the profession will give talks on things of vital concern to the association's members, while plans will be formulated for the betterment of the professions. Several large social functions have been arranged to the entertainment of the association. A grazing will be held at the Eighth Armory. A smoker will be given for the men, while the local Women's Auxiliary has arranged several social functions for the visiting ladies. The railroads have announced reduced traveling rates to the association meeting. Dr. J. W. Burrell, 201 East 37th street, is chairman of the Housing Committee. COLUMBIA, S.

But now France is attacking us. We admit that we have a more difficult task in deciding this controversy with the sword. But if France must decide this dispute with the sword we are confident that God gives victory to the one on the side of justice, and the Riff Republic is willing to abide by the decision of the All Just. The St. Louis Argus ST.LOUIS,MO,FRIDAY,JUNE 19,1925 "We are living, we are dwelling, In a grand and awful time; In an age on ages telling, To be living is sublime." These words, though uttered in another era, were never more appropriate than in this, the age in which we live. And while this is true, it become preeminently so when civilization, with regard to the general status of woman is made the criterion of judgment. The advantages and opportunities open to us of today to prepare themselves for service in society every branch of social and professional endeavor, are patent factors in the development of this present great democracy of which we hast. For centuries has been the wide-spread feeling among physicians, and lawyers that theirs are men's professions, and that women no matter how well trained in these professions, are outsiders and intruders. Some of the leaders in each profession have not held this view, the war has done something to shake it, and the new political status of women is helping to do away with it. This attitude on the part of professional men, however, has played its part in deterring women from entering medicine and law, together with the length and cost of training, and the difficulty of establishing an independent practice. Law is a profession much less commonly entered by women than is medicine. It being the most conservative of all professions, its standards and methods of training are far less well established, and it has been less affected by the modern social spirit. Yet, despite the fact that it suffers from being dominated by the spirit of precedent rather than by the spirit of scientific inquiry, there are signs that it is entering upon a period of reorganization, standardization and socialization. It has always commanded the interest and services of men of the highest ability, and its contribution to public and social welfare—the securing of justice in human relations—has never before been so imperatively needed. There is a strong movement within in the profession for the simplification of American procedure which is overburdened with precedent and detail, and for a clearer recognition of its public and social obligations, a greater emphasis upon its responsibilities as the guardian of essential human rights, and the furtherance of justice to every economic and social group. These newer developments in the legal profession strengthen its appeal to women. Their own new political status tends to widen their legal opportunities and will enable them to take n. more active part both in the administration of justice, and in the promotion of sound legislation. The call to women in the legal profession is undeniable. Their relative detachment from vested interests and large property transactions leaves them free to devote themselves to the human and preventive side of law. Women lawyers are especially needed in matters concerning the protection and welfare of women and children. They are also needed as judges' in juvenile courts, municipal courts, courts of domestic relations, small claims courts and the like. Just at present there is almost an obligation upon women lawyers of sound liberal education, thorough training, strong character, and indisputable standing in the community, to become candidates for judicial and other public offices. New York has a woman assistant district attorney, and a woman city magistrate presiding over the Women's Court and the Court of Domestic Relations. Washington, D.C. has a woman, judge of the Juvenile Court, and one in the Municipal Court. Another has been elected judge in the Court of Common Pleas in Ohio. Another has been federal probate attorney for Indians in Oklahoma. A California woman has been appointed assistant attorney general of the United States, the first woman to hold such a position. There are, doubtless, young women among the June graduates to whom the profession is calling. Some may not altogether recognize it for the voice of law is varied. To those whose ultimate goal is that of a finished business woman, the call is directed, for legal training is not only essential but obligatory to a successful business career. Those who plan a life of civic and political leadership, the call is directed—since law is not only the basis of all public endeavor, but also the hope of its final adjustment to the people, for the people, and by the people. To those who would be practiced in the profession has always resounded and the mission—the securing of justice in human relations—has, since the world began, known neither sex nor race. Without doubt there is a steadily widening field for women with legal training, and those who wish to enter the law should endeavor to secure preparation in a law school of high standing in which the training includes study by the case method, practice in moot courts, and emphasis upon modern legal and social problems, as well as technical legal procedure. This training should be tassed upon a comprehensive liberal education, including some Latin, and a course in economic theory, philosophy, political government, philosophy with attention to its abnormal aspects. They should be women of good health, clear and vigorous minds with ability to weigh evidence impartially, to handle detail, to rea- practical decision without ideal ideals. ism, and above all, to mantief an inexhaustive interest in the workings of the body politic, and the workings of the popular mind. According to the census of 1929, there are now 1500 women members of the bar, only five of whom are reported colored. Of the seven law schools of highest entrance requirements, Harvard, Columbia and Western Reserve do not as yet admit women. The Yale Law School was opened in 1919-20 for the first time to women with a satisfactory college degree. The University of Pennsylvania Law School has been open to them since 1898, and there is little doubt that the next few years will find the above institutions opening their doors. It is interesting to recall that Howard University was the first institution in the District of Columbia to admit women to the law department, and that its first women graduates were white women. It is of ever greater interest to remember that the present opportunities for women to secure legal training in the District of Columbia, the rent of American government and the home of the law making bodies of this great republic, were fostered, promulgated and are at present supervised by women graduates of a Negro institution. When we pause to consider the outlook, the scope and opportunity for women to engage in earnest professional endeavor, and note the encouragement given them, together with their correspondingly awakening interest along these lines, we are forced to say that ours is an age when to be living is indeed sublime, and whatever may be the fault with our democracy, it is still great. PA. PHYSICIANS HOLD A HIGHLY SUCCESSFUL CONVENTION AT PITTS Doctors Carson and Curtis Of Wash ington Perform Difficult Opera- tions Before White Surgeons Preston News Service PITTNBURGH. Pa., June 17. The clinics held during the three-day convention of the fifth annual session of the Pennsylvania State Negro Medical and Dental and Pharmaceutical Association, created an exceedingly favorable impression. In the minds of white members of the medical profession in Pittsburgh. Some of the most eminent surgeons here express themselves as surprised at the skill and dexterity shown by the Negro surgeons who conducted the clinics. Special praise was given the work of Drs. Carson and Curtis of Washington, D. C. The sessions were held in the Center Avenue Branch Y. M. C. A. The opening address was delivered by Dr. M. O. Dumas, Washington, D. C. president of the Negro National Medical Association. On Wednesday night a meeting was held in Warren M. E. Church, at which Mayor William A. Magee and Dr. C. J. Vaux, director of Public Health, made addresses. Attorney William M. Randolph, assistant City Solicitor, introduced Mayor Magee other speakers were; Dr. P. M. Edlund, F. M. Lawrence of Philadelphia; Dr. D. M. Simonson, Cursor of Washington. Dr. C. specialists at Howard University Medical School. The surgical clinics held at Merry Hospital, where Dr. J. I. Buchanan turned all the facilities of the hospital over to the specialists for the operations. Ten major operations were performed by the visiting and local surgeons. Dr. Curtis performed a goat operation, using only a local anesthetic, and Dr. Carson performed an abdominal operation with the use of spinal anesthesia, a serum that is injected into the spine which permits the surgeon to operate on the abdomen while he talks to the patient. White Pittsburgh surgeons who witnessed the operations declare that these specialists are the best they have ever seen. Special praise was made about the work of Drs. Curtis and Carson. Drs. J. B. Hos, G. L. Winstead, F. Allen, M. Burwell, A. N. Levy, R. W. Taylor, A. G. Gantt, C. H. Carroll, J. G. Fowler, and other race physicians believe that the wide spread and favorable impression made upon the Pittsburgh will serve to stimulate a more effective interest on the part of the public for the consummation of a first class hospital for Negroes here manned by members of the race. Considerable effort has been made during the past few years to raise sufficient funds to establish such a hospital. The Livingstone Hospital appears to be the nearest approach to the realization of this desire. It is said that effort will be redoubled for the completion of the Livingstone hospital project. The building has already been purchased and the property largely paid for, but a considerable sum of money is needed to equip the institution for a modern hospital. Preston News Service *PITTSBURGH, Pa.* June 10—John I. Clark, founder of the John L. Clark Service, and for many years assistant to the Superintendent of one of the largest white printing establishments in Pittsburgh, and recognized as one of the best printers in the country, his specimens having taken first prize it "numerous exhibitions throughout the country, has been chosen directing head of the Pittsburgh American Printing and Publishing Company as well as manager of the Pittsburgh American. Friends of Mr. Clark feel that the By ERNEST RICE McKINNEY Preston News Service All the various sorts of heads that are going along with Mr. Bryan in his drive on the Theory of Evolution, should look long at Rollin Kirby's cartoon in the New York World, for June 12. This cartoon is a philipine in a few words as only Rollin can do it. There is a cave with a very dark-interior showing plainly. A servery barefoot, ovalled bare-headed, boy is just entering the cave. An old lag of a school teacher, thin, wrinkled, flat-footed and thin-fingered, stands in front of the cave ringing a school bell. A row of anameles stoop-shouldered, stringy-headed, skimmy-legged half-fed children are marching up to the cave to the tune of the bell. On the cave is an old board sign on this sign in cave-man lettering is the following Bryanese inscription, "No Evolution - Taut in - This Cave." When Mr. Bryan sees this cartoon he will probably exclaim "Amen." It is related that the fictional asses held a convention recently. The meeting was called to consider the case of Mr. Bryan. It was moved, seconded and carried that Mr. Bryan he refused membership in the body and that each member of the convention covenant to refrain from any and all association with the thrice stung candidate. Which brings us to Tennessee, the law against the teaching of evolution, Mr. Bryan as chief prosecutor and Prof. Scops. In the first place Mr. Bryan knows nothing about the theory of evolution, the principles of pedagogy or any of the things that the modern intelligent world is concerned with. As prosecutor in the Scopes case, he will be a complete fizzle. The state attorney is all the prosecutor needed. There is no question about Scopes having broken the law. The law as passed, by a "very 'granite'" headed legislature and it is the law of darkest Tennessee. This law forbids the teaching of the theory of evolution in the state schools and Prof. Scopes broke this law. He admits it. The court will find him guilty; as it should. When a man breaks the law he should be punished no matter how assinine the law. But Mr. Bryan is not concerned with the breaking of the law per se. If Prof. Scoops had committed murder he would not be concerned. His only concern is to try with all his might to return the American youth to the status of the cave man intellectually. He is against the theory of evolution, freedom of thought, intellectual honesty and truth. He doesn't believe that our youth should have an opportunity to fight their way through the darkness. He doesn't believe that they should search for the truth man-misered and unfaithful. His god is not Ophiocord. He knows nothing of the long struggle to develop what little scientific method we have. Our scientific men don't know a great deal about the universe, but they know more than the best of our ancestors and infinitely more than Mr. Bryan. The theory of evolution as well as all the rest of our theoretical and experimental accomplishments are here to stay. The pillars of ignorance, represented by Mr. Bryan, cannot prevail against the intellectual progress of the world. 94 PER CENT N. Y. NEEDY PHYSICALLY DEFECTIVE NEW YORK, June 17—A health survey shows that 94 per cent of the members of families coming under the care of the New York association for improving condition of the poor are physically defective in some respect. The survey covers 62 families of 372 individuals selected at random, as typical. Forty-two per cent of the children and 36 per cent of the adults were found to be undernourished and suffering from one or more of the diseases which result from insufficiency nutrition. Ninety-five per cent of the adults and 72 per cent of the children were found in need of dental treatment. Respiratory defects, chiefly -adenoids and tonsils, were found in 62 per cent of the children. Defective eyesight was found in 39 per cent of the adults and 27 per cent of the children. Mortality is the accumulated sense of countless generations of men. There is a time to change one's mind. It is when one gets mad. Those who are 'bent with toll' didn't know how to go at it right. Men who have earned their leisure are the ones who usually play golf. American has been fortunate in securing a man of his efficiency and sterling worth to devote his time and ability in the production of the paper as well as directing the output of high grade printing in the job department. Mr. Clark's specimens of job work for years have been receiving favorable mention and comment in the Inland Printer and other printing trade magazines. His connection with the Pittsburgh American in managerial capacity presages a wonderful success both from the stipulation of policy, typographical production value. Since Mr. Clark's connection with the establishment we learn that minibars of large users of printing have mixed orders with the firm.

"So long as we stand together, white supremacy must be at least as impregnable." This states closing sentence of a long editorial, not in a southern Democratic newspaper in Mississippi, but in the Republican Catholic Tribune in Chicago. The editorial in question is entitled "The Tide of Color Goes on Rising"; it is long, suggestive, frank and conclusive, so far as the Tribune, is concerned. The conclusion of the whole matter is: White supremacy must still hold on the world, the fact of the matter is indeed the Tribune, it is not going to be an easy matter to continue this front line position. The Tribune analyzes the subject by bringing together all of the darker people of the world against the white people. China - hates Japan, but these people, with Africa, India and other dark peoples of the world would combine against the autocracy and concept of a white world, unless the American republic and the British Empire, the oil of the world, combine in an alliance to keep their forward positions. "It therefore, behooves us to remain on the best terms with England and allow no issue to drive us apart," says the Tribune. It is urged that the American foreign policy henceforth be formulated with the color tide in mind. There is no suggestion of justice, but the welfare of America's fifteen million white people, whose whole thing is a matter of "white supremacy" from the Tribune viewpoint. Colored America Must Have World Wide Vision The dark skinned person of America who feels no concern for the future or who feels that his position, for himself and his posturity is secure, may well be induced to wake up and get a world wide vision of what it's all about. "The indifferent Colored person is asleep at the switch," said a man to the writer, Continuing: "He shares in our benefits, but assumes no responsibility. But, likewise, he suffers with us. It would seem to me that this should give him some concern. The Chicago Tribune has a world grasp of conditions and facts. Colored America must have world wide vision at once, or else suffer the consequences, according to the best opinion of today. The vicious racial policy of The Tribune is absolutely no benefit to that of the most rabid newspaper in South. The Chicago Tribune stands for white supremacy, first last and all the time, declares so boldly and proceeds not only to defend its position, but uses the cleverest tricks of the trade, backed by the ample means, to carry on its propaganda. There are other northern newspapers in America that do the same. They not only have a definite policy, but they have a definite understanding. All of them are given their viewpoint by Southerners who honey-love departments. This is a concrete evidence of missionary zeal of race prejudice. Working With Vigor and Tirelessness While Colored America is asphyxiated by, preparing for vacations, conventions and excursions; having a "good time," jazzy away life in bootleggery, playing the races, poker and black jack, this group of white propagandists are busy making the way uneasy for the Marmouss, Cadillacs, McFarlans, Arrows and Lincoln owned by black people. President Coolidge in his Minnesota address, went on to prove that the "melting pot" had been a success in America, and he gave it as a practical example for the world. The propagandists absolutely refused to include Colored America in this amazing success of united races. Nevertheless they are there and will remain, according to best opinion. Robert Lee Bullard, a Major General of the World War, of southern extraction, giving his personal thoughts on the war, takes occasion to give a blanket indictment of cowardice and inefficiency to all Negro officers from the World War. This expression from such official caused a tremendous stir, and is regarded as a definite part of the program of propaganda for "white supremacy." The Ku Klux Klan of Indiana, at Gary, have been terrorizing colored people, and this is a further part of the program. An alleged moron assaulted a white woman. For more than a week, armed guards, city, county and state, have watched all roads, stopped all colored men and women in cars, policemen, made threats and made insulting remarks. Up to this time, only the greatest forebears on the part of the colored people has prevented a real riot. The trouble is in West Gary, and not in the immediate city, but all the people are affected. The Rifman success of Morocco, northern Africa, remember, has had A TRADE MAKER PAGES 9 TO 14 a strong psychological effect on white America. These dark skinned people have surprised the entire civilized world, (probably including General R. L. Bullard) by their military skill in literally holding Spanish and French "feet to the fire." The Tribute says editorially, "The growth of the white man's power reached its peak toward the beginning of this century." It is maintained by numerous white thinks of white supremacy, that Rifflan success would be greatest setback to white civilization, that has known it would encourage the oppression of Africa and even Japan and China to "knock" the tar out of the conceit and arrogance of the white peoples of the world," according to one leading authority. President Coolidge, as indicated by recent addresses, is of the opinion that all these matters can be adjusted peacefully, and not by guns, threat, the world. He has many on his side among the whites, but the groups belonging to the Tribune school want superiority and power without due regard to human justice. Their view is: "World power must be forever white, regardless, and further regardless, with honor and without, at any price, just so is is white, white white!" All of which, of course, remaining to be seen, as the Tide of Color goes on Rising. EUGENE KINCKLE JONES CONDUCTING NATIONAL URBAN LEAGUE EFFORT EUGENE KINCKLE JONES CONDUCTING NATIONAL URBAN LEAGUE EFFORT National Executive Head Is Traveling 3000 Miles In Campaign For Social Welfare Work. Preston News Service. PITTSBURGH, Pa., June 17.—With the recent enlargement of the program of the National Urban League, Eugene Kinchele Jones, the Executive Secretary, has embarked upon a tour of inspection and unification, planned to be the most extensive in the organization's history. Beginning last week at Detroit, he placed before the Wayne County Social Workers' Conference the new social frontage of the Negro industrial situation. He then visited Pittsburg, center of the steel industry; in Denver, he combined his organizational activities with his function as a member of the Executive Committee of the National Conference of Social Work in Seattle there. This conference has a membership of about 8,000 social workers throughout the country. For the first time, the frontier of the Urban League will reach the Pacific coast thru a personal representative. Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Oakland, California, Portland, Oregon and Seattle, Washington will be visited and working programs discussed. All of these cities have requested conferences on social work programs for Negroes. On July 2, Minneapolis and St. Paul are to be visited. A new organization is just being launched in Minneapolis and will be placed under the local direction of Abram L. Harrington, of the league, and recently a professor of Economics at the West Virginia College Institute. On July 4 he will meet with the Directors of the Chicago Urban League where there has been a change in Executive Secretaries. This tour of unification will consume about six weeks and cover approximately 3,200 miles. GEORGIA MAN IS SCALLED TO DEATH Preston News Service Preston News Service AMERICUS, Ga.

Edwards Associated Negro Press 14. He descended from a long line of Ethiopian Kings, and fell heir to the throne of his fathers. His renown became known to Cambyssa, king of Persia, who fresh from successful campaigns in Egypt set out to ensnare Ethiopia. A Greek historian tells us that this King at the head of his army met the Persians at the Oasis of Ammon and literally obliterated them in open battle. The loss of 50,000 killed, wounded and captured of its flower practically ended the Persian Empire. Hoosit? Answer to Hoosit 13, Bishop Francis Burns of the M. E. Church. THE WHATNOT COLUMN 197. Who was Latino? In the days when the grandeur of Old Spain illuminated the world, some Spanish traders along the coasts of North Africa stole a little black boy, brought him home and sold him to de Cordova, a Grandee of Spain. Cordova, discovering the aptness of his young slave, allowed him to be tutored along with his young master. His progress was so rapid that at an enclosure de Cordova gave him his grandson, de Grammar, Latin and Greek at the "Catholic University of the Holy Soil". Cervantes' contribution to the world's classics, the author has immortalized his Jun Latino, and called him the greatest Spanish of his illustrious sons in the church at St. Angus, Granada is one of Latino, and his ciphilum is "Our Latin poet. He sang the birth of Prince Ferdinand II, and the deeds of Pius I, significate, and the Aime of Don Juan of Austria at Lorenzo." 185. Who was the first champion pugilist of America? John Molineus, a Negro slave of Richmond, Virginia, was the first champion pugilist of America. He gained his freedom by winning a stake of one hundred thousand dollars for his master, Algie Moffineaux. 186. Who were Alexandro Dumas et perte, et tilis? Alexander Ducas, pery (sr.) born in 1802, was the greatest romance novelist and the universally known and read story teller that the world has ever seen or orkrd and today stories from the pen of this great genius are sought and cherished by the most classical minds of the century. His "Three Musketters," and their connecting stories, and "The Count of Monte Christo," being the most superior works of romance and genius that has been the world's fortune to possess, Dumas' father, who was the son of a Haitian woman, was one of Napoleon's most gallant generals, Alexandre Dumas of his (Jr.) son of the pere, inherited most of the genius of his father but was strangely a puritanical moralist.

WASHINGTON, D. C. June 18—According to an announcement made by an official of the U. S. Navy Department, Secretary Wilbur has indicated that he might give his personal attention to questions which have arisen concerning the administration of the Virgin Islands as a result of representations made to him by the Governor, and directed charges against the American judge and the Governor of the Islands. It has been charged that the Governor nor arbitrarily disbanded the Council of St. Croix because it had refused to recognize or seat his appointees, but it is said here that no question had been raised of the Governor's legal right to take such a course. The charges against the Judge involve his alleged course in sentencing a native editor to jail on charges of criminal conduct. The judge is said has asked the island authorities for reports on the incidents. Colortul News "Movies" By The Cameraman For Preston News Service With a high temperature and a rapid pulse, Howard University wearliness upon a bed of pain and sickness Specialists have been asked in are Howard alumni have preferred in are curatives, but the big school, which has so long been a heaven of knowledge edge for Negro youth, is the victim of an epidemic of dissension and unrest, the final effects of which may leave wounds for time and tolerance to heal. The student strike which seems to have been won by the protests has apparently invinnovated other Howard elements with a feeling of restiveness, and internal and external groups, perhaps sincere and perhaps otherwise, have filled the university organization with educational antidotes, mostly painful ones. We have no arguments to advance which involve the Howard organization in detail. We do not know who ought to be at Howard, or what man, woman or child should be either or acted in order to return Howard to the educational vigor which the university at one time enjoyed. However, there are those essential facts concerning Howard, which we do not know. (1) Howard was created primarily for the higher education of Negro students, and as such its past history is enriched the annals of Negro education; (2) Howard is a quasi-public institution in that funds from the public treasury are appropriated yearly by the people's representatives in Congress for the maintenance of the school; and (3) Howard is an eyesore to many members of Congress, who believe that higher education for the Negro should by no means be fostered and preserved. It follows that the dissension and strife now present on Howard hilltop are spectacles happily observed by "told you so" enemies of Howard, who may, during the coming year have a say in the dispensation of public funds. The days of President Wilbur Thirddle should be hastily recalled as exemplary days at Howard when peace, harmony and unity made Howard what it was yesterday. The education of Negro youth should be the paramount item for consideration by Howard's well wishers, and the co-operation of the public should be courted rather than, jeopardized by all who would see Howard rise to the heights of its long-for-career, and the positive and substantial thought with the big idea of Negro education and public welfare as a foundation for any reconstruction which may be needed at Howard should only be prescribed for any reconstruction which may be needed at Howard should quickly be prescribed in the stead of unrest and agitation. The situation should be reversed by making molehills of personal strife and by making mountains of Negro education. The Negro Press— The increasing power of influence of the Negro press is nothing short of marvelous, and the alertness of Negro editors, who fill their editorial pages with a plain talk concerning current events' marks a new day in the moulding of public opinion among the Negroes of America. No longer are newspaper galleries filled with mere words. Quite to the contrary, they are laden with modern opinion built by an honest, straightforward analysis of everyday affairs—affairs of vital importance to the hundreds of thousands of Negro readers who yearn for the truth and ideological of the propaganda so widely diffused and past years by a large percentage of the white papers and periodicals. The result of the wide-wake attitude of the press are becoming more and more noticeable, as readers and their associates calmly absorb the opinion of Negro editors. The day of fooling all the Negroes all the time has become medievak as thoughtful subscribers of the Negro press become informed, of wages, employment, legislation, history, statistics, education, health and dozens of kindred topics of everyday effect upon Negro life in America. It is almost safe to assume that the philosophy of reason which accompanies the effort of Negro journalism is stronger than that of racial group contemporaries of the human people, who are wondering just how much of the real truths of life the latter are absorbing through the means of printers' ink. It follows then that the Negro press is helping the Negro to outgrow the skein of thought which a great part of the white world has so long thrown about the former, and that parallelism of opinion must ultimately emerge from the journalistic evolution which is now going on through the heroic endeavors of the Negro press. The facts must be faced and, all people must realize that American Negroes are thinking in terms of modernism—not heated modernism, but safe, sane modernism, dealing with the naked truth and seeing it just as the rest of the modern world, white, yellow, brown and red see it. The transition is to be commended by all honest people, who should, reciprocally call a spade, spade and discontinue attempting to deluge the Negro with a veneered surface of American events and American hopes. Refreshing Hopes And now comes Senator Royal S. Copeland, of New York, and for a plea doth say that "personal, occupational and religious differences of the Democratic Party" must be thrown upon the scrap pile of disuse. Eureka! And the rose would have been as sweet by any other name, we think. Nevertheless, the Senator's hopes are encouraging, and if they are materialized, there'll be peace on earth and good will toward men. Geography, creeds and skin tints have waved so much power through all the ages that we wonder, at times, if the new civilization has very much THE ST. LOUIS ARGUS, FRIDAY, JUNE 19, 1925 on the old. Racial differences trickle through all the elements named by the good senator, and if sections, occupations and religions, can mend their variances and smoke the pipe of peace in all sincerity, then racial differences will go along too the scrap heap with all the banalic differences named by Senator Copeland. The task, of course, depicted by the Senator, is a superhuman one, and it will be necessary, first of all, for him to secure the hearty co-operation of his confesses below the Mason and Dixon line, and to be alienated from the church south: his history begins with the Battle of Gettysburg; and where occupations frequently suffer from the intervention of practices which challenge law order and Christianity. There's a virtue, though, even in a hope; and there can be consummation of that hope if the good old preamble of the U. S. Constitution can be applied. The Constitution claims the right of its inspiration and the benefit of its protection. Organizing Labor The Pennsylvania Labor Journal of May 23 announces the decision of the Executive Council and the representatives of the national and international unions of the American Federation of Labor to launch a great organizing campaign among colored workers of America, who it is said, are at last to be stimulated in whatever desire they may have to accept the joys and sorrows of the American Federation of Labor, advancing picture narratives are to be used in the drive for membership, which, it is presumed, will forward upon the bases of both mixed and separate unions, as the case may be, depending upon the locality of the group workers. Notwithstanding resolutions frequently passed in convention by the parent organization, the A. F. of L. in a national sense, has not augmented its lists with Negro membership to any appreciable extent during the past few years. Here and there the brother has been taken in, but stimulus from either within or without has not by any means set the world afire. The experiment, then, of a drive for Negro membership will be worth watching, and it seems to us its success will be largely dependent upon the degree of preparation which the brethren have made interracially for such a project. Although the best of faith undoubtedly exists in this experiment, the brethren must remain racially clamish to a sufficient degree to be ready to cope with the segregationists—few we sincerely believe,—which exist even in organized labor ranks. Care must be taken that the plan is elastic enough to see that the brother is given a place of actual vantage at the council table, and that his work interests are fully preserved along with those of his white organized contemporaries. For genuinely good accomplishment, we believe the mixed union is far the better, for work ought to know no color line, and who gives a picyane, after completion, whether red bricks were laid by a white or a black man. Suspicious must be removed from the minds of Negro labor, which has ever been subject to exploitation, whether organized or unorganized; and this faithful contributor to American production must know that glit-edged good will and sincerity thoroughly pervade the experiment. This is not the hole in the doughnut; it is merely a statement of the facts as we see 'em. Tennessee Day— Friday, said to be "unlucky" day in Washington, D. C., reversed itself on May 29, and gave way to celebrants from Sunny, Tennessee, who fetched, tined and entertained Tom Lee the Mississippi River hero, who had previously been escorted to the White House where he was received by President Coolidge. Lee, who was on his way to receive a Carnegie medal, was thereafter taken in hand by the Tennessee society, headed by Colonel Joseph M. Trigg, and "unlucky" day was quickly made over Tennessee Day in the Capital City. Colored Washington was mighty proud of his presence in the city and their gleam was highly visible all the way from Your Street to Pennsylvania avenue. Old Washingtonians, who remember Grant's return from Richmond, said they hadn't been such happy expressions on the brethren's faces since the Civil War Hero's homecoming. Lee, who recently snatched thirty-two drowning souls from the Mississippi River, although thoroughly modest, was quite abashed at the furore which followed his visit to Washington and was a bit ill at ease before the clicking cameras or movies and photographers. The hero will never be able to carry back home the amenable taste of northern hospitality, those donors he brought a living picture of life in the Southland, which could be expanded to him and his kinsmen in commensurate with his and their contributions to fealty and bravery, not withstanding Darwin's evolution of man, which is under the ban in Sunny Tennessee. Reactions In Africa- Even a worm turns and lashingly contends for its rights. Thus are certain tribes of West and South Africa, particularly those under English rule, who feel that their Lord Paramount has not dealt justly with them, beginning to protest against what they assert is an era of injustice, both mild and marked. Their protests were first mere frenzy, but as civilization has slowly crept into the midst they have begun to follow in the steps of others whom civilization has wrought into, a chafing people seeking light, wisdom and equity. Native labor has but sullenly accepted the labor conditions and wages set up by English overseers and employers. Frequently, farm lands have gone to waste under the idle hands of African labor which has become thoroughly attached to the joy and the sorrows of the industrial day. So apathetic have been the African laborers working under English one of the English governors made a trip through several colonies, exhorting labor to go to the post, and outcourting to paint rosette pictures of wages and conditions of labor, hoping to stimulate greater interest and stammer loyalty. World civilization, though, is making itself felt even in West and South Africa, whose natives resent the growing race prejudices and segregation. They resent being debarred from Parliament. They dislike the debarment from South Africa's real army, which is supposed to fight for the country in times of war. They are angry because people of color are prohibited from offering products for sale in the public markets of Johannesburg. They can see caught but prejudices in the Urban Act, which deprives the natives of the right of owning ground or building lots in any of regions of South Africa. They claim that the present rule it is sought to prevent is rising above the level of hewers of wood, drawers of water—a precedent of inequality, injustice and unfair dealing. These are some of the reactions laterly tabulated from the dark continent, and are outstanding even amid the tumult and shouting said to have followed in the wake of the visiting Prince of Wales. It was to be expected; for the exploitation of any people, as history shows, is a time, check affair, and when the alarm strikes, the sleeping awaken and, the exploiters become troubled. Exploitation is bound to pass away in Afri, just as it did in Amerien, and thoughtful nations which have temporarily benefitted at the expense of the masses in Afrien will, as they review history and see what has happened to other exploiting nations, hasten to make amends for the evil they have wrought. Negro Business Year- Nearn business week is oblique away and Negro business week is, as ever before, in our midst, plaintively seeking permanent development. The drug mist who did well this year hopes to do better next year. The booths who performed ten thousand shines this year, wants to hand up a new bond next year. - The butcher, the baker, the candlestick maker are dining for heavy dividends next year. Every proprietor in Negro business, from banker to man, is like little Oliver Twist, asking for but not everyone has pledged himself to give more—more goods, better goods and more service, in return for the dimes and dollars sought from the purses of customers and clients. "Nowhere in life is reciprocity as helpful or as harmful at it in the career of the infant "Negro Business." For example, when Lawyer Johnson's wife died, he refused to employ Understaffer Jones, because in all the latter's lawsuits he always employed Messrs. Ketcham and Chesterham, a prominent firm of white counsellors. Banker Smith, couldn't unintentionally why Thompson, the tailor, depended his money in the white bank downtown, until the latter reminded the banker that he always had his Prince Albert made by Chesterfield, the most exquisite tailor in the city. John Doe the restaurant man always cussed roundly he saw a colored man eating in a white restaurant; yet, he, himself, not even for the sake of encouragement, ever bought a pound of sugar from the colored groceryman on the corner As we said before, Negro Business is an infant. Like other youngsters, it needs special nourishment to make it grow strong and healthy. It really requires a straight diet of Efficient Service. Honesty, and Courtesy, on the Negro merchant, who, having set forth those virtues to the suffering nubile man, he expects his trade, has a right to enclave, Loyalty, Pride and Honesty, together with some overtime boosting of "Our Business Men," who, if they continue to stay square, plumb, and level will eventually mean, for the Race, wealth, employment of our youth, commercial recognition in organized form, and, rt least a small corner" in the world's business. Listen. Friend! Boost Negro business; Negro Business. Do unto others as you would have, them do unto you, Dramatizing Bacial Traits— Miss Elizabeth Gertrude Stern (white) of New York has generously called the attention of the public to the experiment which is taking place in that city in the matter of endevouring to dramatize racial traits of the Negro. In a complimentary vein, Miss Stern has described the Ethiopian Art Theatre, a New York institution of drama devoted to proving that the Race's contribution to the American stage may be as great as it has been to poetry, music, etc. There could have been added to these comparisons, without fear of immodesty, science, warfare, industry and dozens of other branches of American progress in which the Negro has risen to the same dizzy heights of perfection as those set by his teachers. However, as to the Negro students attending the Ethiopian Art Theatre Miss Stern generously states that they have been found easy to teach, ready to receive, eager to learn, and responsive to suggestions, and that they need but to be shown to grasp a mood or an expression. The inference is as plain as day, namely, that the Ethiopian Art Theatre will eventually produce a black Mansfield, a Marlowe, a Mantell or an Ellen Terry, just as there have been produced in other walks of life Hayes, Harrison, Carver and endless numbers of "stars" in virtually every attitude of word endeavor. It is well and good for Anglo-Saxons to boast of their years of civilization; but it is a sad example of selfishness for them hopefully presume that their long endurance of perfection¹² is to be kept within the confines of their own minds. There have been among them, and these ever will be for that matter, kind people like Miss Stree who are opening wide the parts of whom to the world's black folk; and who can yet indisputably assert that the latter may have some innate gift or emotion, which, when given its full sphere of activity, may carry the black man to heights unknown by any other man! In the meantime, the Ethiopian Art Theatre is doing a noble work in dramatizing racial traits—traits which exhibit something more than comedy and spiritualistic. Negro life—traits which will eventually carry all people back to the days of the Master of men. Some from this old world and we shall see each other as God and we know that the yawning gap of race differences will disappear like the early morning mists. College Calamities And now come the psychiatrists, headed by Dr. P. F. Williams and Dr. A. H. Huggles (white) singing lamentations because, as they say, large numbers of college students (white) become "suicides and failures" with "intellectual wit" with little or no consideration of physical health, emotion stability," etc., in the prime objective of American colleges to the prejudice and neglect of other essentials in the educational career of college youth. Poor fellows are they the majority of whom have access to courses in liberal arts and sciences through the unloosening of the strings of fat purses as alders and abectors of the educational advantages of the course in most universities. With but two persons of American youth attending college, it is the physical diversions should be such an extent-that insanity and nervous breakdowns should take toll from the pursuers of mathematics and science. But, lo, American white youth would do well then, to follow in the footsteps of American black youth who seek diplomas from colleges. About 99 per cent of the darkhued college cone of necessity, augment their intellectual attainments with a physical eight-hour course (or plan full of physical exercise and mental emotion. We met one this morning on his way to the college laboratory. He had just finished cleaning some 20x30 plate glass windows downtown in a store, in which he was porter. Had to go back at noon and clean out the collar; and at night, yes, he clean up the first and second floors. Usually he home by ten thirty at night, leaving for bed and rest, for he was not due on his store job in the morning until half past six o'clock. Oh, no, there are no nervous, break- downs or suicides among Negro college youth—that is, there are; none from neglect of physical exercise or emotions. The former is always present. It is made possible by dining room trays, mops, brooms and other implements of work force made for similar purposes. Emotions! Plenty of them for Negro college youth, who live a perpetual emotion, wondering whether they can struggle through or not. We know, for it was our own personal experience, Dr. Rugles and Prof. Williams would do well to use this prescription among their own youth, whom they would yank from impending grieves. It undoubtedly cures the evils over which they are lecturing in mournful meter. Motion Over-ruled— Some absorbing events are taking place in the Courts. In Ohio, the Supreme Court has just overruled a writ of certiorari involving the Woodlawn rural school case regarding the segregation of Negro pupils in the lower grades. It is stated in the record that the writ was sought upon the ground of "general public interest," a ground which it is said the Court refused to recognize. In the United States Supreme Court, called Curtis case, involving a contract capping colored people from purchasing certain restricted property, is pending a argument, upon appeal. In New York, several cases are pending involving the head headed refusal of two or three ignorant whites who persist in ignoring the Levy Bill, which provides penalties for discrimination against colored people in public places. Appeals, that is to say, appeals from court to court, have done more to procure civil rights for colored people than any other step. In all the celebrated cases involving Negroes, the all-important question has been to make the appeal upon the right grounds; for a court of record cannot consider matter de hors (out side) of the record; and a motion based upon untenable grounds is usually overrured. Contractual, constitutional and other questions of public interest are often appealable upon the same grounds; then, again he who appeals from different elements of different phases of law growing out of the same base. One of the first cases ever placed upon the docket of the Interstate Commerce Commission, regardless Jim Crow cars, never came to trial upon merits, because of errors of form and procedure which stopped the further consideration of the case. In other courts, friendly judges have wept inwardly because some Negro litigant who had a good case came up on appeal in erroneous substance form or grounds. The question of segregated schools in the State of Ohio, which has a civil rights law, is an all-important one. Its principles date back to the Beren. College (Kentucky) case, long since passed upon by the U. S. Supreme Court, but up entirely different grounds than those now existing in Ohio. It is to behoo that appeal will be taken and the question of segregation in Ohio's school system wiped out forever. Likewise the Curtis case in Washington, involving restricting covenants against Negro teachers upon certain civil-rights which openly given to all American citizens, save the black man. It is then the ardent duty and pleasure of counsel to go the limit of the law both past and present, in presenting these cases to the country's highest tribunals. That they will do so faithfully and with a deep sense of pride upon the proper grounds, eliminating from possible advent the decision of "Motion Overruled" is not only our hope but our sincere belief. Low cost of living- Prof. E. L. Kirkpatrick (white) expert agricultural economist, has made his farm report upon the living costs of farm located in selected localities of Kentucky, Tennessee and Texas. The expert, the average total expenditure of $611.10 for colored families is less than half of a similar average of $1,436.00 for white families, and thus struck terror into our hearts; lest our brethren down home were underdressed and physical weaklings. Our grief was turned to joy, however, when we found out that of the $611.10 expended yearly per family, $5.5 per cent went for bread and meat, etc., as against only 44.0 per cent which the whites expended for food. In clothing costs the colored families ran neck and neck with the whites, the respective percentage being 17.5 and 17.7, illustrating the advantage of being able, in instances, to spend your money, when you rent. In rents, the whites were proportionately in the lead with 9.7 per cent as against 6.7 for our group. Necessity, you know, is first cause to location and down home there because the policy of keeping Negroes "in their places." Otherwise, we are confident that the rent item would make a higher grade. Our group was moderate in their pur- chase of parlor suites, planes and other home comforts, reducing this percentage of the expense budget to 7.7 as against 2.0 for the whites. In the maintenance of health expenses paid to physicians and nurses, our shamens were 4 per cent flat with the shamens being 10 per cent. Kirk patrick, who thus expelled allegation that colored people have careless health habits. Last, but not least, Prof. Kirkpatrick discovered that, colored families, who were steadily allocating 2.3 per cent of their budget for insurance of life and limb, compared with 2.6 for the whites, are virtually on a parity with the latter group bespeaking conservative pride and marked evasion of the potter's Held. And if Prof. Kirkpatrick had taken the time to measure the space occupied by the respective families, which is probably about one-half for our group of what it is for the white group, he would have discovered, we are sure, that their low cost of living is as high as that of the whites, and higher, perhaps. Dean Miller and 'His Critic' Our good friend, Dean Kelly Miller, of Howard University, recently billed modernism long enough to call generalism back to the children, the church and the thoughtful dean in the spirit of monotony used to word "Kitchen," symbolizing, we presume home and household duties, and admonished our ladies to be modest in attire, officers of the fireside and evaders of race suicide, all or which seems to have jolted the equanimity of our esteemed friend J. A. Rogers, "The life, who is in his ably-written comment on the month's 'Messenger' proceeds to take Dean mildly to task for daring to suggest 'substance' should take precedence over "form" in the ideals of every woman. Critic Rogers intimates that Dean Miller is a one hundred per cent pessimist for wanting to wave noble women back to the days of real kisses and kiddles. He figuratively refers to "the intellectual gap between the Negro man and the Negro woman," and gauges the discrepancy by showing that in "Who's Who, one colored woman is listed as against sixty-four colored men, whereas among the whites there is listed one woman to every sixteen men. The abatuation to intervene in the brief discussion of so absorbing a topic is so great that we are quite unable to resist. The imminent Hence, with apologies to the worth penman, we are making these few observations. Whether to "bear and rear" or not to "bear and rear" kiddies are not the true question of womanhood in its generic interpretation. Whether knickers and bobbed hair are womanly embellishments is quite immaterial. Whether or not there ever a single feminine name in "Who's Who" is of slight concern in the bona fide province of woman in this globe. Woman is the beautiful refiner of crude man lest he be eternally lonesome, she was sent into his midst to solace and comfort him. the peaceful smoothing veneer of life, the peaceful of ugly passions and the sedative of nausea. Such characteristics are not the result of modernism, which is high-powered and commercialistic. And if her influence brings about the results above described, it is merely incidental that she is in the kitchen or in "Who's Who". But when she loses that vision voluntarily or by the pressure of man, be she in kitchen or amongst the intellectuals of the world, she has traded her birthright for a mess of potage. According to the Associated Press, (white) the Pulman Company, builders of de luxe parka cars and coaches for the great trunk line carriers of the United States, are about to embark in the enterprise or building de luxe aerial equipment for use in a contemplated commercial traveler aerial service, soon to be imitated by several aeroplane companies. Cushioned aerial compartments, commodiously appointed, and not unlike the divaned bay windows of the Ritz Carlton or Hotel Pennsylvania are to be offered to aerial travelers to whom the Twentieth Century Limited or the Knickerbocker expres are merely snails. "And," says the A. P. "these Pullman compartments for aeroplanes are to be managed by Negro porters, to be taken from the Pullman service." And when we read those lines we knew that there was something wrong in Denmark. Negro porters in the air! We know of, course, of Leut. Julian, daredevil aerialist and parachute jumper, who is qualified for Pullman air service, but who makes a dollar a minute giving thrills to the public; And after looking over his record, we delved into the Negro Year Book for notations of the brethren's exploits as deep sea divers and aviators. No, not one. Then we remembered grandad's oft-repeated statement that a brother is happier when his feet are on the ground; and right away we resolved to bet our block of Liberty Life stock against one first-class ticket from Memphis to Little Rock that the Pullman porters in the air service-to be will be of purest white, serene. Freckingham University, Washington, D. C., paid marked tribute to the descented hero, on the 103d Anniversary of the birth of General U. S. Grant, K. K. K. destroyer. Cortz W. Peters, the 109-words-a-minute typewritten king of the Dumbar High School is now king for the World's Championship contest to be held at Madison Square Garden, New York, next October. Charles W. Anderson, Collector of Internal Revenue, Third District of New York, has been technically named defendant Zimbablist, (Neo Alma Gaud) against the U. S. Government, for refund of overpaid taxes. By I. A. (Billboard) Jackson NEW YORK, N. Y., May 27.—Some significant things have been happening in "Little Old New York" the past few days. Small things that tell big stories. Let's hear them in order. On May 15, the National Americanization Committee of the Veterans' of Foreign Wards conducted an Americanization night in Town Hall. The program consisted of a film exhibit entitled The Spirit of Lafayette, some very famed speakers and a number of distinctly "High Brow" and of almost national consequence. We participated. Yes sir. Right in the middle of the program, and one of its outstanding features was "The Poite Ventilouquist," John W. Cooper. He not only maintained our places as an artist but the developments of the evening were such that we were glad that he was there to maintain our racial right to be included in anything that has to do with sustaining historic traditions. Not that we need Americanization, for Peter Salem and Crispus Attucks attended to that for us even before Lafayette landed. Fred Wedton and H. D. Collins provided the talent. They, with Captain Walter Joyce, national patroltic instructor of the Veterans, are to be thanked for conserving our group interest in this connection. Oh, that Billy Kersands could have tried to have seen the day when ministrels could be offered at a five dollar top. It actually did come to pass. Five dollars and fifty cents for one orchestra seat is what it cost anyone who entered the Greenwich Theater day, May 17, when W. C. Handy, the Father of the Blues, presented his revival of oldtime ministrels. Walter Cornish and Mine, E. J Robbison presented the old fashioned cake-walk costumed in the style of its-period. Baby Annie Boyer contrasted with it by executing the modern Charleston-modern to the American public, though in reality as old as the cake-walk itself. Handy had some real minstrels Tom Fletcher, who has "Kicked Em" in many parades, McKissick and Halliday, Karle Cooke, Jesse Wilson and W. C. Handy himself were some of the real old-time troughes who made the limousine audience like the revival. Clarence White's Entertainers, a group that includes William Elmore, Casi Williams, Nelson Kinkaid, Mitchell Lewis, Joe Breen and Carl White, augmented for the occasion by Frank Robinson, Benjamin Mitchell, Clarence Wheeler and Handy. Jr. represented the modern race artists, and ob. boy, how that gang could play and sing. There were errors as might be expected in a specialist performance without adequate rehearsal; but the patrons liked it. So did Charles Gilpin, John W. Cooper and Noble Sissle who were guests of the "Blues Daddy." The idea has commercial possibilities for it proved conclusively that there are those even in the big town who have a longing for the shows of other days. Rich Wall street operators and their women folk laughed at the old time gags till tears rolled down their cheeks, notwithstanding the indifferent manner in which these things were done due to a lack of rehearsal. Fletcher and McKissack and are End Men, that's all. The comes the Colored Comedy Club, with the greatest Negro vaudeville bill we have ever seen assembled in Harlem. Great Guns of the theater opened the show. Just picture Paul Bass and Seminole for openers. Second, U. S. Thompson Johnnie Nilb and Willie Keene, -Individual star dancers, all hoofing together for ten minutes. Brown and DeMond replendent in new costumes and material. Then Winfrey and Brown doing the chink and sailor before a special drop; Eddle and Grace and another pair of topnotchers in either club or vaudevill. Then came George Harvey and her "Runnin' Wild" four, the most harmonious woman act we have ever witnessed. Mrs. Ruth Matson, Julia Mitchell and dancing Mac Barnes make up the quartette and it's a great one. That was the first half. Then came George McClennon and his clarinet, the same George as is proclaimed in waker colors before the Columbia from where he doubled to make the show. Dave and Tressle just from Proctor's 5th street theater, Butterbeans and Susie, stars of record and the T. O. B. A. and Byrd and Ewong. I leave it to you, wasn't that a knockout bill? The engagement was played 50-50 with the house, and the performers worked for their club at figures they would have laughed at should any agent offer them. Secretary McKinney sure staged a show; but the management will have to sell the theater, for they cannot hope to maintain the standard the club has set, not on a commercial basis. Now just to jazz up a bit, we can tell of the miniature strike staged at Wurth's theatre Brooklyn on Monday, May 18, by the chorus girls of the Chocolate Dandles. It lasted 25 minutes and held the curtain until the girls had won their point. Now comes Miss Bobbie Covington product of the Chicago Conservatory of Music. Met her soon after her arrival with the Davenport. Billy Pierce is going to place her. Jack Cooper sent along a letter declaring her to be the vocal surprise of the season. Sarking in rhubarb is a very powerful poison. This is oxalic acid, which is used for bleaching. In small amounts it gives pleasant thirst-quenching' properties to vegetables and fruits, as do the minute quantities of citric acid found in red currants, gooseberries, raspberries and lemons.
