ATTEMPT MADE TO FIRE JUDGE TERRELL'S SECRETARY First in Local Circulation. Vol. 3, No. 40 JURIST'S ILLNESS TAKEN ADVAN- TAGE OF Judge Aukum Accused of being Prejudiced in Demanding Resignation Henry Brown, enrollment clerk of the Municipal Court, acting as secretary to Judge Robert H. Terrell, was handed a letter by Judge Aukum, Thursday, stating that his services would cease on March 31. A few days ago Judge Aukum made charges of "inefficiency" against Mr. Brown and asked for his resignation. Mr. Brown refused to resign. The Judge proceeded to get rid of Mr. Brown even to the extent of dismissing him. Attorney George Hayes, president of the local Bar Association is investigating the charges of Judge Aukum as is also Shelby J. Davidson, of the N.A.A.C.P. They express the opinion that race prejudice is at the bottom of Judge Aukums' attempt to get rid of Mr. Brown during the absence of Judge Terrell, who has been in Freedmen's Hospital since last May. Mr. Brown is the only colored clerk in the whole Judiciary Department of the District of Columbia. Judge Aukum seems to think that this is a good time to get rid of him. It is alleged that Judge Aukum is the prime mover in this matter. It is also stated that Judge Mattingly has refused to be a party to the demand for Mr. Brown's resignation or to sit in Bank to even consider it. Judge Terrell in his sick room at Freedmen's Hospital stated that he was astounded at such charges, for Mr. Brown had always performed his duties efficiently. Higher authorities are to be consulted before Mr. Brown's time will expire it is claimed. In the meantime the charges are being investigated. The Bar Association will meet Saturday night to consider the case and everything that can be will be done to prevent Mr. Brown from being sacrificed on the alter of Judge Aukum's prejudice. Pullman Porters to Seek Better Wages Washington porters heard outlined Monday, for the first time, the crystallized plan of procedure for the twenty-four delegates to be sent to Chicago, Ill., to present the Pullman Company management their demands for increased wages and better working conditions. Porter Lancaster of the Penn Terminal District, New York City, spoke to a large gathering of the men at Terminal Yards here on the status of the porter, and apparently convinced all, by the deftness of his logic and his inimitable manner of presentation of the facts, that, far from being radical in their demands, the Pullman porters were barely asking for a living wage. The company has recently granted the men a 5 per cent blanket increase, under an agreement with the porters, called the Industrial Relationship Plan, and, which was rejected by the Pullman conductors. The porters' delegates will go to Chicago instructed to abrogate this plan, and to present the following demands, together with some of lesser importance: 1. A minimum monthly wage of not less than $100; with time and one-half for overtime; a working month to consist of not more than 240 hours. 2. Porters to be paid full time when told to report, beginning at the time of reporting, whether assigned to service duty or not. 3. All lines vacated or newly established to be placed for bids, seniority rights prevailing in the selection of porters. Shining shoes, etc., optional with (Continued on page 3) The Washington Tribune Published Weekly RECONSIDERATION OF COHEN NOMINATION UP MARCH 16th Senator Henrick Shipstead of Minnesota, moved, on the floor of the Senate this week to reconsider the nomination of Walter L. Cohen, to be Controllor of Customs at New Orleans, La. The reconsideration will come up for action through an agreement, next Saturday, March 16th. Cohen has been twice turned down by the Senate for this post. The fact that Senator Shipstead, a Farmer-Laborite, moved for reconsideration of the nomination, means that the progressive Senators apparently will support the nomination when it comes up. It is claimed that a number of Northeastern Senators have experienced a change of heart since last month, and will, if given another opportunity, vote for confirmation. STOCKHOLDERS WANT WHITELAW INVESTIGATION Audit Committee Named at First Meeting in Two Years The stock holders of the Whitelaw Hotel Corporation held their first meeting in two years, Friday night. The meeting was called despite the protest of some members of the board. President John W. Lewis, presided. A full attendance was out as the stockholders were anxious to know the exact status of the corporation since so many threats have been made to sell the Whitelaw Hotel recently. However, the officers of the corporation were unable to give the stockholders much information which resulted in numerous heated arguments and near fights. So, on a motion by Mr A. W. Mitchell, a resolution was passed after a heated debate, demanding that a committee be appointed to make a complete investigation of the affairs of the corporation since its organization up to March 1st, 1924. The following committee was named from the floor to make a complete audit: Mr. A. W. Mitchell, chairman; Prof. John R. Hawkins, secretary; Mr. John T. Risher, assistant secretary; Mr. Jesse J. Porter and Dr. Carroll A. Brooks. Life Insurance, The Transformer (Bv Simeon Cunnigham) (By Simeon Cunnigham) In the transformation of material wealth into social wealth, Life Insurance performs another sociological function and plays its part as well as it does in the process of distribution. Money is of value only for what it will buy, and the wise man is constantly exchanging it for something better. Life Insurance transforms money into comfort, self respect, education and character. Social processes are of value according as they create conditions and sentiments favorable to still better processes. Patriotism creates condition only, and, too often, is attended by violence. Industrialism is dependent on the utilization of new materials and processes but, these new elements render the old useless and create new conflicts, thus reducing society's net gain. Life Insurance, based on the continuity of the race, erects a social structure that destroys no pre-existing values; creates no new conflicts and depends in its operation, upon moral and social forces. Patriotism, admirable as it, tends to separate men into nationalities and make them contingent enemies; industrialism, necessary as it, introduces competition and its progress is marked with conflict and waste. Life Insurance draws men together as moral and social forces whose highest interest lies in the future and in their children. The Federal Life Insurance Company transforms the race's wealth, intrusted to its care, into race protection. A Federal Policy in every home will be of benefit to all concerned—let a Federal Representative explain how. —Adv SERVICE CO. OF ATLANTA, GA. IN TROUBLE Quick Resale of Mississippi Life is First Evidence of Difficulty The Service Company is the parent of a number of other businesses among which are a chain of drugstores; a construction company, a coal mining company; a publishing company; the Citizens' Bank and the Standard Life Insurance Company. The apparent instability of the parent company has affected all of its subsidiaries. It is claimed by a man on the inside, that the Standard Life Insurance was the only unit of the Service Company that was making money. Naturally any trouble with the parent or holding company would affect all the other units. Therefore, the Standard Life has been drawn into the haze of mystery. The true status of conditions relative to the Standard Life will possibly be known in a few days as S. W. Rutherford of the National Benefit Life Insurance Co., of Washington, D.C., and C. C. Spaulding of the North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Co., of Durham, N.C., are due to arrive here by Friday as well as several other men who head large insurance companies. These men will try to determine the status of the Standard Life and save it from any scrambled condition that may result from an investigation of the Service Company. Standard Life in Good Condition is Report Atlanta, Georgia—The Insurance Department of the State of Georgia has just approved the annual report of the Standard Life Insurance Company of Atlanta, Georgia. This statement indicates that Standard Life is still the premier life insurance company in the world managed and controlled by Colored brains and capital. The gross assets of the company, it is revealed, amount to nearly three million dollars. The increase in assets for the one year 1923, alone, being more than one half million dollars, or $682,571.31. The report also indicates that Standard Life has the largest surplus of any Negro, life insurance company in America, and that the increase in its income is more than one half million dollars. The total insurance in force at the close of 1923 was nearly thirty million dollars, representing an increase in insurance for the year of nearly six million dollars. These are staggering figures when it is keen in mind that the Standard (Continued on page 3) Important Events of the Week in Pictures THE BAR Interior view of New Office of Mortimer M. Harris, 613 F Street N.W. M. M. Harris Co., Moves to New Quarters Seldom has Washington witnessed such a grand opening as that of the new quarters of Mortimer M. Harris Tuesday. All day long throngs of friends and customers visited the new quarters, which are pronounced to be among the most commodious in the city. Each visitor was given a souvenir pamphlet which gave many interesting facts regarding the M. M. Harris organization. Mr. Harris is one of the race's largest real estate dealers. His office specializes in sales, rentals and insurance. The building at 613 F Street, Northwest, a four story brick, was purchased by Mr. Harris, Mr. J. A. Cobb and Whitfield McKinlay a short time ago and was remodeled completely, making it one of the finest owned by colored here. The property is located right in the downtown business section. Mr. Harris started as a rent collector and salesman in the office of Whitefield McKinlay. In 1916 he started in real estate business for himself. His business has grown from a small office to large and palatial quarters in the building above mentioned. During the last eight years, Mr. Harris has negotiated more than $1,000,000 worth of local property. The new quarters were christened with the announcement of the sale of a row of houses in the 1800 block of Eighth Street, Northwest, to a young lawyer named Gordon Dingle of New York City. This sale involved nearly $100,000. With the opening of the new offices, Mr. Harris also announced the beginning of a building project involving the construction of several palatial residences on Second Street near W, Northwest. These homes are to be resplendent in every particular. The buildings underway will cost around $100,000; with subsequent building, the total will be over $208,000. This project is owned by Prof. John R. Hawkins of this city and Dr. A. B. Penn of Alexandria, Va. Associated with Mr. Harris are Mr. Robert L. Evans, sales and loan department; Mr. Fritz W. Alexander, sales and insurance department; Mr. Frances M. Settle, cashier; Mrs. Francis M. Thomas, secretary and Miss Florence M. Hunt, rentals and sales department. The Harris office resembled a miniature floral shop on its opening day; large floral tributes being sent by Dr. J. M. Dowling, Mr. E. H. Bachschmidt, the h. L. Rust Co., Mr. Jesse Powell, Mr. J. H. Lomax, Miss F. M. Hunt, Mr. Richard Peters and others. 100 Kelly Miller and the Howard Appropriation AN EDITORIAL In our issue of last week we carried a feature news article in which it was stated that Kelly Miller nearly wrecked Howard University's appropriation then pending in Congress. This news story was carried in the utmost good faith, and stated what appeared to be true in the light of the facts at hand at the time. It was not intended to in any way question either the sincerity or good intentions of Professor Miller, but to state the facts as to the effect of what he did. In the light of facts learned by The Tribune, since this publication, it should be stated in fairness to Professor Miller that he carried out what appeared to be the consensus of opinion among the officials of the University. But in the light of subsequent events it has developed that the willingness to withdraw the fight for the $500,000 item for the Medical School, as apparently agreed upon by the University officials and as expressed by Professor Miller to Senator Smoot, was a mistake in judgment and turned out to be unnecessary. It appears that there has been some misunderstanding as to our attitude toward Professor Miller by reason of the news story as carried by us. A careful reading of Professor Miller's letter in last week's Tribune will serve to show that he was in no sense actuated by indifference to the welfare of the Medical School—in which his son is now a student—but was endeavoring to save—as he supposed—something from what looked like an imminent wreck. Neither The Tribune nor anyone else could dare question the loyalty of Kelly Miller to Howard University or to his race. He has given the best years of his life to Howard, during some of which years the compensation barely kept the wolf from his door. In the early days, when Howard could not boast of her present large buildings, her present large teaching force and her present adequate salaries, Professor Miller was numbered among that faithful few who, by their sacrifices in the school room and on the public platform, kept the doors of Howard open for the black youth of this land, who with little or no money sought a higher Photos by Scurlock Office: 920 U St., N.W.

The articles of incorporation were drawn by Attorney Chas. S. Hill of 611 F Street, Northwest. The organization is the only one of its kind in America; its incorporators have high hopes of making it one of the strongest labor organizations in existence. Already it boasts of a large membership in and around the District and has accomplished much good in bettering local working conditions among women. The object of the Wage Earners organization will be according to their articles of incorporation, to develop and encourage efficient workers; to assist women in finding the work for which they seem best qualified; to elevate the migrant class of workers and incorporate them permanently in service of some kind; to standardize living conditions; to secure a wage that will enable women to live decently; to assemble the grievances of employers and employees into a set of common demands, and strive mutually to adjust them; to enlighten women as to the value of organization; to make and supply appropriate uniforms for working women; and to influence just legislation affecting women wage earners; to grant certificates of memberships to kindred branches affiliated with this association.

PAGE TWO A sacred concert of rare musical quality was given Sunday evening of last week in the main auditorium of the 15th Street Presbyterian Church at six-thirty by the choir. "Ave Maria" sung by Benjamin Ragsdale was warmly received and it easily puts him in the ranks of those whose musical interpretations strike the popular chord. Stanley Brooks, as a silver-toned tenor, made a modest hit in his rendition of "Oh That I had Wings," and showed a voice that was pleasingly mellow. As a violinist, William Jefferson seemed perfectly at home and reached the most difficult notes with apparent every day ease. "Weary of Earth and Laden With My Sin," rendered by a quartette consisting of Miss Josephine Muse, Joseph Walker, Dr. Bessie Stevenson and Mr. Benjamin was above the average and exhibited unusual refined vocal technique. ```markdown ``` Rev. Francis Grimke, pastor of the church delivered the invocation and the benediction. The prelude "Even Song" by Johnson and the Postlude "Allegro Pomposo" in F were played by Miss Celestine Lott, the organist. Property Long in Family's Name To be Divided By a bill filed in the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia, the estate of Anthony Coates, which has been handed down in the family's name from parents to children, from brothers to sisters, then to grand-children for a period of about a hundred years is to be divided share and share alike. It is alleged that the property can not be divided in kind, and the court is asked to decree a sale of the property for the purpose of the division. Attorney Edmund M. Chaplin, appears on record for the petitioners. Lincoln Congregational Temple At the Lincoln Congregational Temple, Rev. R. W.

Special mention was made of Dr. Emily Brown Childress and the Beta Chapter in Los Angeles, California. The life of Susan B.

The civil service commission an- nounces an open competitive examina- tion on March 26 for the appointment of apprentices at the Government Printing Office. The trades in which instruction is_ given are_printer, press- nian, ‘eleetrotyper,- stereotyper, bind- er, photoengraver, and machinist. The age limit is sixteen to.nineteen years. Persons who have seen service in the army or navy are not restricted to age limit. A postal card addressed to the U. §$. Givil Service Commission, Washington, D. C.,-will bring all nec- essary information. It is desired that a large number of colored boys will take this exam- ination as an opportunity of this kind is seldom offered. The greatest need of the Negro in the United States is the opportunity to learn to be me- chanies and business men. Our vo- cational and teehnical schools are not producing results. ‘The first examination for appren- tice,'under the present administration was held in March, 1922. Twenty-five boys received © appointments. The “writer was unable to learn whether there were any colored- applicants. Four colored boys were induced to try in the second examination which was held in July, 1928. About seventy-five persons took this examination from which three colored boys and forty _ white boys received appointments. FORMER ROSETIME PLAYERS TO TAKE ROAD WITH NEW TITLE Despite the confusion brought about by the indiserect actions of two or three leading members of the erst- while Rosetime Review which caused ‘a sudden cancellation of its recent en- gagement at the Howard Theatre, the Company has been put back into the running with a new title which will mean more for its selling power than its former title. é In addition to its new title, one of the most prominent female stage artists of this section of the country has been engaged to play the leading role which has never been done with entire satisfaction since this pro- duction’s initial performance. ‘Thru the energetic efforts of Messrs Chas. $. Johnson and Jas. R. Fletcher the company has secured several sub- stantual bookings in the East, and with special costuming by experienced designers and special scenic and elec- trical effects by such Artists as Fred B. Pelham and other members of the colored branch of the stage employee's Alliance, the Promoters intend to bring this production -to the highest plane of real Musical Comedy. pro- ductions. ‘The comedy will as usual be under the tutelage of J. Hartwell Cook, who so far has been the backbone, of all o fthe previous successes. With a new cast of leads (with Jerome Car- rington taking the male side) sup- ported by such principals as Hazel Jones; Restina Banks, Cafol Clark, Ewelyn Rawls, Davis and Ratley, Dyer and Glascoe, Eddie Zenderdown, Alden Garrison, and Chick Collins, and with a few valuable additions to the already peppery Beauty Chorus, a successful spring season can be expected. Z SENATOR MAKES CONTRI- BUTION United States Senator O. E. Weller is a recent contributor tothe Cardinal Gibbons Institute, national school for colored youth, to be eregted this summer in Southern Maryland. In a note accompanying his donation, he states: - “The Cardinal Gibbons Institute is a most laudable and appropriate un- dertaking. It will be an institution in keeping with the life and character of the. late Cardiiini.

Read down for games abroad. 1924 SCHEDULE OF THE EASTERN COLORED LEAGUE PAGE FOUR Th Alcoe B Score Brilliant Victory Over Carlisle "District Champs" is the insignia on the sweaters of the players of the Alco basketball team. This phrase has been the subject of much controversy; but at last, the issue has been settled and the Alcoes will continue to sport these words with the full sanction of the local basketball populace. This honor was valiantly won on the Colonnade court, Tuesday night when the Carlisle "5" was conquered 29-27. An extra five-minute period being necessary to decide the issue. Today, Willie Hope is the idol of all Alco followers and the target of the Carlisles; for, it was Hope who sank the only basket of the extra period and gave the victory to Smith's warriors. While Hope's pinch-shooting won the tilt, others had a very important hand in the final outcome. Archie Berry going at a break-neck pace throughout the game was a real star. But it would be unfair to pick out individuals; for, every man on the court did a yeoman's job. However, the Alco defense solved and bested the individual work of the Carlisles and thus the whole story is told of the greatest game seen on a local court this season. Line-up and summary: Alco(29) Carlisle(27) Berry ..... L. T. Hill Neale ..... R. T. Ed. Davis Frazier ..... Cen er. Wheatland Harris ..... L. I. Mayo Graves ..... R. T.

Williams Richmond, Va., Mar. 2-The Hampton basket-ball quintet closed its 1924 series last night by defeating Virginia Union University, score 34 to 26, in one of the hardest-fought games of the season. It was Hampton's first appearance on the local court. A big crowd of loyal Hampton and Union rooters were present to cheer their favorite teams.

WASHINGTON POTOMACS WASHINGTON POTOMACS Follow CUBAN Lincoln Again Bows to Howard Philadelphia, Pa., Feb. 29—The basketball team of Howard University defeated their rivals from Lincoln last night at the Musical Fund Hall before a large gathering, 31-16. The game was fast and bitterly fought with the Lincoln lads refusing to admit defeat till the end. The winners got away to an early lead and at half time had the better of things to the count of 19-10. Howard showed plenty of form and accuracy in all departments of the game. Their passing dazed the Lincoln boys time and time again, while the shooting of the Capitol boys was not only timely, but executed with precision and in beautiful form. It was noticeable that the Howard team was not a one man team for every man that entered the game was able to fill the shoes of the previous player, and each player contributed his bit to the final score. From the showing Howard made in this game it is certain that Howard will again be in the lime light in basketball circles and classed among the best teams of the race.

The game Friday gave Howard C. I. A. A. championship and it is said that the two teams will most likely meet and play off the tie on a neutral floor. Many of the Alumni of both institutions are crying for the game to be played in their town. Baltimore, Orange, and New York have been suggested. It is hoped that some agreement will be met in the next few days so that both teams may be kept in condition for this tilt to decide the championship. Hampton Union McNichols . F..... Gregory Jones .

THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE SATURDAY, MARCH 8, 1924 DREW IN DANGER OF LOSING LEG Charles Drew, former all-round Dunbar athlete and star end of the 1923 Amherst College eleven, is in grave danger of losing a leg, according to a report received here recently from Amherst. Constant rubbing of an old shoe started the injury which resulted in blood poison. The leg is reported to have swollen three times its normal size and a desperate attempt is being made to save it from amputation. Tuskegee Captain Thrills Spectators With the score deadlocked, two minutes left to be played, and the Tuskegee Tigers and Atlanta Hurricanes fighting like the Spartans of old, Captain Wells of the Tigers received a tap-off, dribbled through the opposing defense and put Tuskegee quint in the van with a spectacular goal. Not satisfied with this exhibition Wells followed it up with two other goals from mid-court just before the final whistle which ended the game with the final score Tuskegee 21, Atlanta 15.

FIRST NEGRO ORGANIZED BASEBALL SCHEDULE For the first time in the history of organized Negro baseball, a schedule has been drafted and sent out for publication. The 1924 schedule of the Mutual Association of Eastern Colored Baseball Clubs appears in this issue. The schedule was worked out on a basis of 70 games, each club meeting each of the others ten times. The season opens on April 24, and closes October 5. The Eastern Colored League (Mutual Association) officials deserve much credit for the publication of this schedule. Considering the fact that two clubs—the Cuban Stars and the Royal Giants—travel exclusively (having no home grounds) and others have to adapt themselves to dates available in the parks where they will play, drafting the schedule was not an easy job. The Mutual Association has made rapid strides in one season. Consideration for the spectators has had much to do with this success. COLLEGES ENJOY UNUSUAL BASKETBALL YEAR Within a few days the most successful basketball season in the history of the sport in our colleges will come to a close. Despite the lack of gymnasiums and of suitable places to stage games, more institutions engaged in varsity basketball this season than ever before. Howard and Union put teams on the floor after a two-year idleness. Virginia Seminary was represented on the courts, we believe, for the first time. Hampton, Lincoln, Wilberforce, West Virginia, Shaw, Tuskegee, A. & T., and Johnson C. Smith had teams on the floor. Southern basketball never realized a better year. Probably the biggest single event was the basketball tournament staged at Atlanta, Georgia, on February 8th and 9th, which was won by Morehouse. It is reported that the crowds which viewed these games exceeded all records for that section. So successful was the tournament that officials expressed the opinion that next year Northern schools will be invited to take part. Clark, Atlanta, Morehouse and Morris-Brown competed in the tournament. It is regretted that Eastern fans were unable to see the Wilberforce Five in action. Coached by that well-known basketball tutor, Dean Mohr, the Ohlans proved their worth with a decisive victory over Morehouse who had in turn defeated every one of its collegiate opponents. was not intended to convey the impression that Kappa used any unsportsmanlike procedure to win the game. The Elite Panthers defeated the Manchester A. C. 20-19 and the Community Center "5," 22-21. In the preliminary to the Alco-Carlisle game the Sentinel beat the Silent "5," 39-17. The winners followed this up with a 42-30 victory over Dunbar. The St. Cyprians crushed the Delta "5" last week, 43-24, but lost to Armstrong, 32-23. Gunn has played his best basketball game for Hampton. He was captain of the 1923 quint. He leaves a notable record behind. The Alco-Carlisle game drew all classes and creeds. It was a game worthy of the gallery. Benny Washington and "Mouse" Johnson handled it superbly. Coaches Conway and Smith, both expressed themselves as willing to clash again. If another game is booked, everyone of the 600 spectators on hand Tuesday night will be back. A series would be the best test although since there was no previous understanding, the Alcoes would be perfectly within their rights to rest on their laurels.

The story of "The Next Corner" concerns the love problem of a young married woman, who, with her husband away on business in South America gets mixed up with a gay crowd of French frolickers, and is swept away by the glamorous love of a Spanish nobleman. The smashing climax is great stuff. Others in the cast are Dorothy Mackaill, Ricardo Cortez and Louise Dresser. A comedy, newsreel and music by the Republic Theatre Orchestra, under the direction of A. Russell Wooding, complete a perfect bill. On Friday and Saturday, March 14 and 15, "The Love Charm" with Wanda Hawley in the leading role, will be shown. She will be remembered by her wonderful work in Valentino's "The Sheik." In this story, "The Love Charm," Miss Hawley demonstrates how the present "jazz era" won her a husband. If you want to see a real jazzy party, see this picture. Mae Busch and Warner Baxter are others in the cast. An array of short subjects and Wooding's music complete the program. The show begins every day at 3 p.m. at the Republic. Doors open 2:45. Novelist Helped to Rename his Story When titles of well-known books are chaned for the screen versions, there is usually a storm of protest. Critics say that the practice misleads the public. But it was to keep the public from being misled that Goldwyn changed the name of "Name the Man!" which comes to the Lincoln theatre next week. When Sir Hall Caine wrote the story, he published it under the name of "Master of Man." Since that time, COSH, THINGS IS BREAKIN' HARD, HERE I AM AS RACCEDY AS A BOWL OF YAKIMAY, CAN'T GO HOME UNTIL I GET A JOB, AN' JOBS IS ABOUT AS PLENTIFUL AS NON-BOOTLEGGIN' REVENUE AGENTS!! POST NO BILLS DRINK PLUVO ONLINE REFRESHING INSURES AGAINST SICKNESS, ACCIDENT AND DEATH Condensed Annual Statement, December 31, 1923 several pictures with similar titles, but based on altogether different themes, have been issued, and it was to avoid a confusion that Goldwyn consulted with the celebrated English novelist, and with him, agreed on "Name the Man!", even at the risk of losing the value of the advertising which resulted from the interest which the story aroused under its original title. The new name is in perfect keeping with the story, which deals with the young and very human judge on the Isle of Man, and of the great climax in his love and in the lives of two girls. The all-star cast includes, Mae Busch, Conrad Nagel, Patsy Ruth Miller, Hobart Bosworth and Creighton Hale. Several spectacular scenes call for great mobs, and along with beautiful scenes of natural grandeur are elaborate settings, including those of the great castle and prison on th eIsle of Man. This is Victor Seastrom's first American picture. A course in radio will be offered by the Dunbar Night School, beginning on Monday night, March 3, at 8 o'clock. The course will consist of a series of lectures on the theory and operation of different types of radio sets.

Registration cards for admission must be filled out on Monday night, between the hours of seven and ten. "When love rejected turns to hate Then ill-betide the man." Mr. Kipling with these words of poetic candor and subtle innuendo plunges deep into the throbbing emotional heart of that romantic story, "St. Elmo," from the pen of August Evans, the screen version of which, with John Gilbert in the title role, which will be offered by William Fox at the Broadway Theater Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday of next week. Lives there anyone with soul so unromantic that he or she at one time has not read "St. Elmo?"

"STEPPIN' OUT" MONSTER MUSICAL COMEDY AT HOWARD What is beyond question the outstanding even of the musical comedy productions of the season will visit the Howard Theatre for only a one week engagement, commencing March 16th. This comedy which carries the name "Steppin' Out," is a musical extravanganza, featuring the team of celebrated colored comedians, Billy Higgins and Cliff Ross. They are supported by an exceptional cast of talented performers, including Ernest Whitman, Billy Gunn, The "Steppin' Out" Four, Susie Sutton, Rogers and Rogers, Julia Moody, Alice Gorgas, and numerous others. A scenic equipment of rare beauty and massiveness and wonderful creations of feminine apparel such as are rarely seen with this class of entertainment, tend to verify the claim of the producers that this is the wonder show of musical comedy.

The dominating question uppermost in-everyone’s mind, since the point of order was made in the House against the appropria- tion for Howard University Has been, what is behind the point of order? me Many reasons have been suggested, some with merit and others with less merit. Representative Byrnes’. use of Dr. Grimke’s lecture was only a subterfuge. In the Senate, the now_ famous note left by Dean Miller dn Senator Smoot’s desk was mentioned. A still smaller subterfuge. Others have advanced the idea that the purchasing of a home by Dean Woodard in a section where certain white people thought colored ought not to live, was a fac- tor, and yet others think that the fact that Howard has connected with it a Theological School was the basis for the opposition, on the ground that Congress should not help a religious institution. All of these are insignificant. The Grimke speech was seized upon by Mr. Byrnes because it would foster race prejudice. There is deep seated envy and prejudice toward Howard University per se. : A few years ago when the colleges and universities of the Dis- trict were examined) for Class A ratings, Howard, Georgetown University, the Catholic University and Trinity College were all given first class ratings. George Washington University failed to make the grade. The Southern white Baptists are trying to get possession of George Washington University and Representative B. G. Lowrey, from the second district of Mississippi has been appointed on a committee of three, to arrange for the control of George Wash- ington University by that church. Mr. Lowrey, formerly president of a college in Mississippi, is unalterably opposed to higher education for the Negro; and for Howard University, training Negroes in the arts and sciences, to be rated higher than the George Washington University, a white school, cuts Mr. Lowrey to the quick. Therefore, thru fear of Howard’s influence on the Negro and on account of envy for its rating above this white school, Representative Lowrey, rankling over his failure last vear to choke off Howard’s appropriation by Congress, begun in good time this year to get in his dirty work. Last year he used the same tactics as were used by Byrnes this year, but failed on a technicality. This year he made a speech which inspired Byrnes to make his point of order. However in addition to the race prejudice and jeafbusy of these Southern gentlemen, they, or Mr. Lowrey atleast, probably have an eye to business. For if he and his crowd obtain possession ct George Washington Unijyersity, he will then have the opportu- nity of becoming President of this university and of diverting the appropriation to his school. As for Byrnes, most likely he only used his point of order to further his political ambitions. © Shortly-after making his point of order against Howard, and the papers in South Carolina had carried the news to “the folks at home,” Mr. Byrnes announced himself as a candidate for the Senate to contest for the seat now’ held by Senator Dial of that state. Fostering race prejudice to advance their political ambitions is the favorite scheme of the Southern un-American politicians. A certain Rev. Hugh Stevenson, who is pastor of the Baptist Church at Rhode Island Avenue and Second Street, northwest, is also said to be busy in opposition to Howard University. He is quoted as having “predicted” that the refusal of Dean Woodard to move from his home on W Street would react against Howard’s appropriation. He is a Baptist and says that Howard is subject to a point of order against its appropriation because of its Theo- logical School, maybe with an eye single to-George Washington University also. . KELLY MILLER AND THE HOWARD APPROPRIATION (Continued from page 1) i education. For the race at this time to forget those sacrifices and struggles would be base ingratitude. Kelly Miller has reared a family of boys and girls all ef whom he saw fit to educate in the school which he has so much helped to build and develop. These sons and daughters not only attended Howard, but now reflect credit upon their Alma ‘Mater. This demonstration of faith in Howard and race institutions, dispels any suggestion that Professor Miller does not love the school he has served so long and so loyally. No man has done more to make Howard University known throughout this land as the one great institution for the higher education of our race than has Kelly Miller through his books, his pamphlets, his speeches, his lectures and his example. This writer has been told by a young man from Oakland, Cal., (a student at Howard) that not until he got to Washington did he know that Kelly Miller was not the President of the Howard University, with which his name and fame have been so long and so closely associated.

The theme of the pfogram was “United effort. for the common good of all.” A chronological history of the as- sociation was given by the several ex-presidents. J.

And who is this genius? None other than Dorey T. Rhodes, the conductor, hailing from Topeka, Kansas, whose achievements at the Institute of Musi- cal Art, New York City, where he won a competitive musical scholar- ship in 1916 with high honors; or- ganized and trained the 51st Field Artillery Band which saw service at the front during the world war in France; and for one year prior to going to Howard University, was musical conductor of the Crescendo Club in this, have won the heartiest praise from crities who are usually circumspect in their commendation. Mr. Rhodes is a musieal giant. Yes, but he is a rather remarkable giant. We knew he was big when the band concluded the first movement of Wil- liam Tell’s overture, but our eyes popped when this remarkable conduct- or appeared to grow in stature throughout the balance of* the pro- gram. Possessed with keen dramatic imagination, of infinite detail in quietude, of heroic mold in full in- strumentation, and over all with a real humanity in his reading of scores, Dorey Rhodes attained such immen- sity he dominated everything, show- ‘ai a winaher hand te colce dnd alee recognition, representation, co-opera- tion. The President, W. T. Patterson, has inculeated these requisites in his administration. Assistant Supt. of Schools, G. C. Wilkinson, after congratulating the Association upon its work during its nineteen years of existence, and as- suring it that the School Administra- tion owes its suceess to the untiring efforts of the well organized civie as- sociations, brought a message from the 5,000 superintendents of the de- partMhent of superintendence of the Natjonal\Educational Association who met in Chicago last week. The message laid stress upon the value of the school teacher in” the community, the co-operation of teach- ers, parents, and civic organizations, making for progress, law and order, and a one hundred per cent citizen- ship. Without such ¢o-operation, they form themselves imto free lance or- ganizations, which usually become dominated by highly emotional, in- competent leaders and gradually de- generate into « morbid attitude of un- friendly criticism and general lack of function. ‘This in turn generates “a restless, gossipy and highly unstable condition,” with a lowing of efficiency and morale. Very impressive but sueeinetive re- marks of unity and co-operation of teachers and parents were made by Mrs. G. Pelham, Miss F. §. Bruce, H. B. Queen, and Dr. Richardson. After the benediction by Rev. E. T Broadus, President Patterson gave thevgpdignee a chance tghgvarits-say at the Tooke tables, ~~ ee ADVERTISE ‘The Washington Tribune And Get ~ RESULTS ing. He plays upon his band with all the moods in the various instruments. He is undoubtedly one among the really few great colored conductors of our time—with the -most graceful wielding baton. Safranek was chosen as the heart of the evening’s ;yresentation, with the “Suite in Four Parts—Atlantis,” from the composer's virile pen, breathing a joyous yet soulful message, deep- hued throughout. It was dignified, full of strength and rich in tone color. MusicianAlfred E. Smith made his debut as Soloist paying “Air Varie” as clarinet solo. He exhibited re- markable command for a student with only three years training. It might be said that he possesses qualities of marked musical aspects as a clarinet- ist, should he continue his success. In this connection we noted that the pro- gram contained the name of the Clarinet incorrectly spelt “Clarionet” derived possibly from “Clarion,” an obsolete sort of trumpet instrument of differemt nature. Mr. Clinton A, Walker was the other soloist-of the evening performing in a masterly manner the difficult BB flat Bass Solo “Barberosso,” entitling him to a place in the front ranks of the: fore- most Bass playepé of the race. Spe- cial mention should be made of the March ‘Governor’s Own” compos by Alton A. Adams, U, 8. Navy Band- master stationed at St. Thomas, Vir-) gin Islands and the only colored man, of such rank under the Stars and Stripes. This March has been played and commended by the U. S. Marine Band in Washington and by other no- ted musicians, It is a wonderful: martial air by this talented composer of thd Islands. The March “Suifra- gette” and waltz “O Sol Mio” were other selections rendered. A fresh free spirit romped through the entire program with a twinkle of gorgeous beauty here and there. ‘The one and only lamentable fea- ture of the concert was the lack of patronage on the part of local musi cians and musie lovers, even Howard was meagerly represented. Certain- ly there must be something radically wrong in a great city of a hundred thousand citizens of color that only a mere handful turns out to hear and encourage a promising band of am- bitious young musicians who have sacrificed hoth time and means to pre- pare themselves and then in concert must play to almost empty seats. That such a thing could happen in a community of highly developed intel- ligence and culture, of such as we openly boast, is an absolute reflection i the least. It seems that we are partial towards wind and brass: choirs’ favoring. instead the solo voice in nearly all classes which is an evi- dence of the slow development ee public musical taste and the tack of musical appreciation generally. ‘The Howard Band repeated the program in part before the student body of Howard at the noon assem- bly hour, in the chapel last Wednes- day and ‘they gave the band a grand_| ovation.

The publishing of the telegrams ex- changed between Washington and Palm Beach last December shed a light on conditions, not yet brought under investigation, which call for immediate explanation.

All oily roads are leading to the White House. President Coolidge must want to clear them of their oil. If his trusted men—Seeret Service, tele- graph operators, and others—have se- cret relations with persons involved in the oil scandal, it is incumbent upon ‘him to demand an explanation of their conduct and a clearance of the pur- pose of their secret relations with Mclean and others of oil-seandal fame. ~ ee eee ; Churches have always had sharp competition—bunting, cock-fighting, bicy¢ting, motoring, movies. The radio has-been introduced bringing with it ‘a new type of competition. This new ‘competition strikes the pastors’ pock- ‘ets more than it affects the member- ship of churches, There was, according to the esti- mate for 1923, by the Federal Coun- ie of Churches, a total membership of all denominations of 47,461,558. ‘This is approximately half the total population of the United States and a little more than ba ira of the adult population. This shows that churches have competed quite suc- cessfully with all their earlier com- petitors. But this new type competition! Will the church adjust itself to. it? There are, according to the Department of Commerce, ninety-five broadcasting ‘stations operated by colleges; forty- six by newspapers; three national guard regiments, two State govern-' ‘ments, nine municipalities, and nu- ‘merous chambers of commerce and police forces, while only / twenty. churches have obtained licenses from the Department. This does not affect the church as keenly.as it does the average pastor. Sermons by the most eminent and elo-| quent pastors of the country are in popular demand, The broadcasters make up their Sanday programs to! meet this demand. Radio fans, instead if rushing off to hear some “jack-leg preacher,” listen-in to the best ser- mons delivered. As a consequence, the ministry has to fight the radio devil. for menetar} reasons. The churches, however, may be able to counteract this and encourage a renewed habit of chureh-going. Sey. nt) Me Returns from all sections of the United States show that there were, approximately, six. affirmatives to every negative vote cast in the Bok Péace Plan poll—490, 549 for and 71,- 473 against. Is this a true indication of thé at- fitude of the people toward world- peace? Did .all the voters carefully read the plan, and were they con- vinced that it was the one indisputa- ble road to peace? Were not most of them simply in favor of peace at whatever cost? If so would they not have accepted any “proposed workable plan? sIs it true that only ‘those interested in the co-operation of America and Europe for peace ‘took the trouble to vote? ‘Is such a vote more favorable than a national referendum? It is true that the common people ‘are against the ae of Death: ‘They realize ‘that they are the ones who must bear the brunt.

Please write your age after your name in "every letter." Answers to the Conundrums Dear Editor: Here are the answers to the conundrums I submitted last week. What is an old lady like in the middle of a river? Like to be drowned. What was it that went before Queen Mary and that followed King William to the end? The letter M. What is the keynote to good breeding? What is that word of five letters of which, when you take away two only one remains? Store on alone. "Bluebell" Dear Editor: I see someone got my pen name in before mine arrived, so I will choose "Bluebell." I hope that no one has already taken this name. "Musician" Has a Birthday Party Dear Editor: I am trying to make it my duty to write a letter to you every week, so that others may see that I'm living up to my promise, because I promised to be a true blue Tribunite. Now to proceed. I'll tell you of the birthday party that I had on Sunday, February 24. Several children were present who were school mates of mine. Mother had told the children not to bring any presents but I received two which were Victrola records (three), and an ivory set, consisting of comb, brush, and mirror. On the above date I was twelve years of age. Dear sir, I have now a question to ask you. Don't you think it would be nice to have "best story" contests every now and then, having children to write on subjects they wish or on ones you choose? Now, I think it would be splendid. Very soon, I hope, you'll be able to hear me play the piano, as my school, Lucretia Mott, and others are hoping to have orchestras. Twelve pupils in my class of twenty-six have enrolled. In school I am doing nicely, I'm hoping to be able to pass the 8-A grade in June. My present teacher is Miss H. S. Brown. Miss Brown is very nice, she teaches lessons that you remember if you try. I think I'd better stop writing this letter now, and think over some grammar and geography. Dear Editor: I always read The Tribune, but I never try to answer questions on the "Children's Page." Sunday night as I was reading the paper I decided to solve the puzzles. This is my first time to write you and I shall continue. I go to Dunbar High School. I am in the 2-B year high school. DARNELL JOHNSON A Jingle Dear Editor: This week I am sending you a gem called "The Season": Sing a song in season— EDWARD WASHINGTON (?) Brownie Dear Editor: This is the first time that I have written to you. I love to read the Children's Page. I would like to become a Tribunite. I am fifteen years old. I attend the Armstrong Manual Training High School and I am in my third year. I would like for my pen name to be "Brownie" because many of my friends call me that. I am sending in the answers to the puzzles. THELMA BROWN (15) A New Friend Dear Editor: I have been reading the Children's Page of the Washington Tribune, and I have been very much interested in it. I have enjoyed working out the puzzles and questions and learning all that I can about the history of my race. My name is Frances Murphy. I am eleven years old and am in the 6-A grade at Thaddeus Stevens School. Miss M. L. Mason is my teacher. I live at 2318 H Street, N.W. I would like for my pen name to be "Love" because I am called that at home. Inclosed you will find just a small drawing on which I am sending you a wish.

My teacher's name is Miss Holton. I am six years old and in the first B-grade. I notice that the boys are selecting pen names and I want to select one, which is "Sparkling Eyes." Lucille's Favorite Poem Dear Editor: I haven't written to you for a long time, but I have been reading the "Children's Page" every week. I see that many of the Tribunites are sending in pen names. I want mine to be "Charity", because it is my heart's delight to do something good for somebody every day. Here is a little poem called "All Things Beautiful" by John Keble. All things bright and beautiful, All creatures great and small, All things wise and wonderful, The Lord, God made them all. Each little flower that opens, Each little bird that sings— He made their flowing colors, He made their tiny wings. LUCILLE MILES TRIBUNITES' PEN NAMES Beatrice Scott: "Cherry Blossom." Thelma E.

SCRIPTURE READING A new commandment I give unto you, that ye love one another: as I have loved you.—John 13:34. Once upon a time there were two little butterflies. One was red and the other was white. One day these little butterflies were caught out in the rain. It was a fine day in April. They flew home, but the door was locked and they could not get in, and they could not find the key, so they flew to the garden where the flowers had closed up their petals until the rain was over. They flew to the tulip and said, "Will you let us come inside of your bosom, so that we will not get wet?" But the tulip answered, "the red one may come in because he is like myself, but the white one will have to stay outside." "If my sister cannot come in, neither will I," said the red butterfly. After the tulip had treated them so cruelly, they went to the lily, and said "Will you let us come inside of your bosom the tulip turned us down." "I will let the white one come in, because she is like myself. I will not let the red one come in." The white butterfly answered, "If brother cannot come in, neither will I." 4 F 4 P DRAWING CONTEST (Drawing Series, No. 24) You are to take the figure and the letter just as they appear above and make them part of a picture.

The tulip turned us down and, the lily turned us down, are you going to turn us down, too?" "No, I will not turn you two down. You may come into my bosom if you wish to." So the little butterflies went in. When the rain was over, they were dry and ready to go out again. They told the kind sunflower, "good-bye" and flew out of her bosom toward their home. When they arrived there, the door was open and they went in. The picture drawn by J. D. Morris, nine years old, of Fredericksburg, Va., is very good. We are sorry that it is drawn with pencil. Had it been drawn in ink we could have used it. Edith Morrison numbers each sheet of paper and writes her name at the bottom of each sheet. A very good idea, Edith.

Pe B Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity Sets Social Precedent Alpha Chapter of Phi Beta Fraternity set a social precedent at Howard University on Friday evening, February 29, by holding its annual ball in the new $201,000 uniiversity dining hall. In order to lend the proper dignity and Academic air to a Fraternity affair it was given under the shadow of the University. The University heads highly favored the idea and offered further to advance the plan. The idea of giving Fraternity affairs away from the campus sets aside the fact that such organizations were born in the Colleges and for the most part fostered there. Therefore in order to maintain this bond of affiliation, Phi Beta Sigma and her guests gathered beneath the roof of the beautiful Dining Hall and danced to the strains of Smith's Imperial Band until one-thirty, a.m. The scheme of the decorations was that of a Venetian garden. Ferns, palms, various kinds of green plants, blue and white crepe paper (the Fraternity's colors), and numerous banners and pennants were so arranged as to bring out the desired effect. From the west balcony an immense spot-light, producing every color of the rainbow, set between two large blue and white rectangular lights played upon the gay throng as mellow as moonlight. Upon the east wall was set the Fraternity pin with a gold background in which were set twelve white frosted electric bulbs as pearls giving an exact duplication of the pin itself.

At eleven-thirty, five hundred balloons filled with an oderless and haimless gas, a late French invention, were let loose simultaneously which floated aimlessly throughout the hall the remainder of the evening. Serpentine and confetti thrown hither and thither amidst the flood of lights and shower of balloons gave a splendid appearance of the Venetian gardens of old. The beautiful gowns blended perfectly with the soft mellow lights of many hues that danced merrily upon them as the dancers swayed lightly at on fantastic toes. The whole thing made one think he was dancing in a land of fairies and dreams. Caterers served punch from the Orient to keep the Venetians fresh of body and light of foot.
