First in Local Circulation. Vol. 4, No.5 DELEGATES FACE COLOR LINE IN CLEVELAND Separate Entertainment List in Papers for whites That the Republican Party is gradually becoming a party of segregation is again proven by the Jim-Crow policy of entertaining the delegates to the Republican National Convention, this week in Cleveland. In the Cleveland Press each day appeared a list of the program for the entertainments for the delegates. This list under the caption of the day, named the time and place for the various activities. Under the list of events is another caption "For Negro Delegates," under this head is listed where the Colored brethren may go to enjoy themselves. This is the first time a complete separate program for the delegates has ever been made. RAW DEAL GIVEN RACE POLITICIANS RAW DEAL GIVEN RACE POLITICIANS Events at Cleveland this week has just shown how the local Republican leaders pulled the wool over the eyes of the local Colored Republicans. While the delegation from the District consisted of only two delegates and two alternates, Mr. Colliday, National Committeeeman and Mr. Prescott, head of the Republican Central Committee here, after getting to Cleveland, found a way for Commissioner Cuno Rudolph, to be made an honorary Vice President of the Convention; Mr. Prescott was placed on the committee to notify the President of his nomination and Charles J. Bell placed on the committee to notify the Vice President of his nomination. With these official appointments this gives the white Republicans ostensibly four delegates, while the Colored Republicans got only one. This method was used evidently so as not to give the Colored Citizens a fair share of the delegates. Therefore in order to keep from giving the Colored Citizens their just share, which is recognized as one half, this deceptive method of naming men at Cleveland to these various assignments was apparently adopted. It was for the reason of eliminating the Negro alone that the local Republican leaders decided to use this method of appointments. The Democrats allowed the district this year six delegates, while the Republicans only chose to give them 2 delegates, but finally decided to grant three unofficial delegates, at Cleveland. This action has caused much resentment on the part of the local leaders. Some of them have admitted that they were caught napping. According to the completion of the District Delegation at Cleveland, it was unofficially composed of four white delegates and one Colored. This gave the Colored Republicans one-fifth representation, instead of the agreed one half. This action evidently bears out the statement made by Mr. Prescott before the Senate Investigating Committee that he was the Political Boss of the District. The Dunbar High School Year Book The Dunbar High School Year Book for 1924, published by the Senior Class of the school, was released for distribution on Monday, June 9th. The Year Book, the most arbitious undertaking of any of the books so far, consists of 172 pages containing information regarding the Administration, Classes, School Activities and Alumni. The book contains liberal illustrations and cuts of the seniors, officers of various groups, etc., and is bound in imitation mission leather in school colors, and embossed in gold. The book contains a complete and interesting history of Dunbar High School, dating back as early as 1807. This article is contributed by Prof. J. C. Wright, a teacher at Dunbar. (Continued on page 5) The Washington Tribune Campaign Contributions Play Big Part in D. C. Delegate Contest THE CONGRESSIONAL LIBRARY FIRST ST., S. E. The Published Weekly Campaign Cont Big Part in D Con The fight of John T. Rhines and Aaron Bradshaw before the Credential Committee of the Republican National Convention was in vain, as the Committee after hearing arguments lasting over an hour, on motion of S. W. Green, Supreme Commander of the Knights of Pythias, of New Orleans, a member of the Committee, the Committee voted to seat Wm. T. Galliher and Atty. Thos. L. Jones, Capt. Julius I. Peyser was supposed to represent Rhines and Bradshaw, but because of pressing business here, did not arrive in Cleveland in time to appear before the Committee. In his absence, Atty. E. L. DePoure (Colored) of New Jersey, was engaged. Mr. Bradshaw also spoke in behalf of his delegation. The principal reason for being seated advanced by the winning faction was the fact that they had contributed over $30,000 to the Republican Party Campaign fund and that they were being asked to raise $100 this year. TEACHERS FACE SALARY CUT TEACHERS FACE SALARY CUT After July first the public school teachers of Washington will not receive the increased salary they expected as allowed in the new bill just passed, but will get $20 less a month in their pay envelopes, when they return to work in September, all because, Senator Pittman of Nevada in the final hours of Congress on last Saturday talked to death the second deficiency bill, carrying with it the sum of $2,025,102.21 to meet the urgent needs of the District Government. In a stubborn fight he stood out, until adjournment, for the addition of an amendment to the original bill, seeking to provide for an appropriation of $800,000 to finance an irrigation project at Spanish Springs, Nevada. He thus blocked the measure. Early in the evening, Senator Pittman made it plain to his colleagues that he would defeat the entire bill, unless the conferees would include his amendment to which they stoutly objected. While the reduction is merely temporary and may not last longer than six months, great hardship is seen for those affected by this sudden and unexpected event. There seemed to be an agreement before Congress adjourned, however that the teachers would be granted the increase as soon as Congress reconvenes in December. When the bill became a law, ordering an increase in the teachers pay, it was thought that the measure, which carried the money for the increase would go through without failure, hence the bonus was dropped. Not for a moment did any one suspect that any opposition would be encountered, when the time came to make the provision intended to cover this loss. School officials regard the situation as extremely unfortunate, but express the belief that the reduction will only be temporary and that the extra allowance denied at the opening of the new school year, will be properly adjusted when Congress meets again next session. Alumni Association Elects Officers Alumni Association Elects Officers On Thursday evening, of last week, the General Alumni Association of Howard University held its annual meeting in the Andrew Rankin Memorial Chapel with Attorney W. Justin Carter, President of the Association, presiding. The annual address was delivered by Father F. N. Fitzpatrick of the Class of 1914 of the College of Arts and Sciences. Other prominent alumni made remarks including Dr. Scott Wood of New York City. Attorney Carter, of Harrisburg, Pa. of the Class of 1892 of the School of, Law was re-elected President of the Alumni Association. WASHINGTON, D. C. SATURDAY, JUNE 14, 1924 "LINC" JOHNSON AND HOWARD VICTORIOUS Both are Elected National Committeemen by State Delegates The Negroes went into the Republican National Convention with one National Committeeman and fortunately came out with two. This is the first time in the history of the party so far as available statistics are concerned that two Negroes have held such office at the same time. Henry Lincoln Johnson was elected National Committeeman from Georgia by his state Delegation at the Col. Henry Lincoln Johnson Convention in 1920. He was re-elected for a second term this week at Cleveland. Perry W. Howard, special assistant to the Atty. General, succeeded in ousting M. J. Mulvihill (white) for many years National Committeeman from Mississippi. The Republican party split in Mississippi again this year as usual and this time the Perry W. Howard faction was recognized by the Credential Committee and finally the Convention itself. The faction headed by Mr. Howard then elected him National Committeeman for Mississippi. While "Line" Johnson was elected in 1920, the two Republican Presidents refused to officially recognize him in the dispensing of State patronage. It is now a question as to whether the Coolidge Administration will officially recognize both "Line" Johnson and Perry W. Howard or whether the policy of ignoring them will be continued as in the case of "Line" during the last four years. As an assistant, in accordance with the ruling of the National Committee, Henry Lincoln Johnson appointed Mrs. George Williams, of Savannah Georgia, as National Committeeman from Georgia. This was the first time any Colored Woman has held such a position in the Republican Party. In all probability, Mrs. Williams will be continued by Mr. Johnson in this post. TIGNOR AND PETERSON WIN UNIQUE VICTORY Attorneys C. W. Tignor and George W. Peterson scored a unique victory in the District Supreme Court on Wednesday last in securing the acquittal of Roy Riley of Takola, Ga. Riley had been indicted in two instances for robbery upon a single citizen in one case and upon two others in another. Notwithstanding Riley had made a detailed confession to the police as to both cases; and supposedly identified to their satisfaction by the victims, the attorneys showed the confession to have been unlawfully obtained and produced so strong an alibi in Riley' behalf that the Jury promptly acquitted him. NAT'L TRAINING SCHOOL ENDS ITS BANNER YEAR Miss Nannie Burroughs Voted First Vacation in Four- The National Training School for Women and Girls, Inc., located here, of which Miss Nannie H. Burroughs is president, has recently closed the most successful year in its history. This school is one of the few institutions of its kind managed entirely by a woman. The commencement exercises crowned the banner year of the school history. The graduating class of '24 was the largest since the founding of the school. The amount of money raised and the number of students registered all surpassed the record of other years. More than trustees met this year than at any previous meeting. All in all this was easily the banner year of this school which was founded over fourteen years ago by Miss Nannie H. Burroughs. The graduating class, including those receiving diplomas and certificates, consisted of twenty-four students representing seven states, the District of Columbia, Africa and the West Indies. The Departments furnishing these graduates were: Normal, 2; Commercial, 1; Domestic Science, 1; Dressmaking and Plain Sewing, 8; Department of Religious Education, 8. The commencement address was delivered by Rev. Robert L. Brady of Detroit, Mich., Thursday, June 5th and it was a masterpiece both for logic and oratory. So inspired were the trustees present, representing twenty-one states, with the work done, that they have organized for the immediate raising of $250,000 for a new building and a central heating plant. The also voted to complete parish trustees them into execution for the raising of a larger endowment fund. After fourteen years of intensive work in building up the National Training School from one building and a campus that is one of the most beautiful in the capital city, the Trustees voted to give Miss Burroughs, the one responsible for this remarkable growth, her first vacation in fourteen years and money to enjoy it. One of the most singular events of the present school year was the interest the students and alumni manifested in the school. During the year they gave over $1000 in cash or legacies. Included in the legacies was a fine radio set which proved a real source of enjoyment to the students during the winter. Miss Burroughs, in cooperation with the trustees is now working out plans for the enlargement and expansion of the school's property and activities. This year's faculty consisted of twelve teachers coming from the leading colleges in America. This being the only school north of the Potomac and Ohio rivers for the exclusive training of colored girls, it is rapidly extending its influence throughout the northern states. Many of the new expansions contemplated are for the purpose of taking care of the increased number of students yearly matriculating from these states. Being located in the nation's capital, the school has a natural attraction that makes it a favorite in both sections of the country. Many students come up from the south because of the unusual advantages offered here. The National Training School was founded as a Baptist school and has remained under the care of this denomination since, although some of its trustees and supporters are of other denominations. The school is national both in the completion of its student body and its influence. Each year the student body is drawn more and more from the various states of the union and foreign countries. O STREET VOCATIONAL SCHOOL The former graduates of the school met recently and formed an Alumni Association with Miss Grace Piper, president and Miss Felitha Carrington, secretary. From reports made by members present, a number of the graduates are out of town doing well in their particular line of endeavor or trade.

Bennett Appointed Member Board of Education When the announcement was made by the judges of the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia that Rev. R. I. A. Bennett, pastor of Calvary Episcopal Church, 11th and G Sts., N.E. had been elected as a member of the Board of Education, there was no person in Washington more surprised than Rev. Bennett himself. His appointment came as a complete surprise, as Rev. Bennett was not a candidate and did not know that the judges were even considering his name. When the announcement was made Rev. Bennett thought someone was playing a hoax on him. He first stated that he did not know whether he could accept or not as he had endorsed Atty. William L. Houston for a candidate run the Rev. Bennett several years ago, but since then his name has not been mentioned. Rev. Bennett stated to a Tribune reporter that he would make no statement as to his policies but would prefer to wait until he had had an opportunity to study the situation. He further stated he had no friends to reward nor enemies to punish. Rev. Bennett is the second Episcopal minister to be appointed to the Board within the last ten years; Rev. Tunnell being the other member. Rev. F. I. A. Bennett came to Washington in 1892 as a student at Howard University. He graduated in 1897 from the College Department. In 1900 and 1901 he assisted Rev. Tunnell in the instruction at Kings Hall, which at that time was an independent Theological School. In 1902 he organized Calvary Episcopal Church and has been its rector since. He is very popular in local ministerial circles and is well liked by all citizens. He is a past master of Prince Hall Masonic Lodge, and is a member of the Public Interest Association of East Washington, which he organized sometime ago. JOSEPH S.GRAVES CLOSES CAFE Graves' Cafe, located at 18 G Street, Northwest, was closed by Mr. Joseph S. Graves, the proprietor on Wednesday of this week. The place was not closed by the Government, although a padlock injunction is pending. Mr. Graves who has operated his place for over twelve years, said to a Tribune reporter that he was tired and needed a rest. He further said the place was closed only temporarily. He was undecided as to what he would do. His first desire he said was for a vacation so he can catch up with his rest as he has worked night and day for a number of years. He is now resting at his home, 14 G Street, Northwest. For twelve years Graves' Cafe was a synonym for good food. It was one of the largest and finest cafes in this section. Its closing will greatly inconvenience the number of patrons who dined there every day. Office: 920 U St., N.W. Howard Commencement Mrs. Coolidge; The President; See'y sevelt. Photo by Scurlock Annett Appointed Head of Education JOE C. BROWN INDICTED Among the indictments returned by the June Grand Jury this week was one for Joe C. Brown, (white) a real estate dealer. He was indicted on four counts, for alleged false pretense in connection with the handling of clients' deposits for the purchase of homes. The firm of Joe C. Brown operated almost exclusively among colored home buyers. Many of the alleged victims of this firm were people who had little or no education or knowlvolved in "purchasing a noine" Joe, numerous did these irregularities become until it has finally landed Joe C. Brown in the hands of the law. Protest Removal of School The Parent-Teachers' Association of the John F. Cook school presented a petition to the Board of Education at its meeting Wednesday asking that the school not be moved from its present location to a place on North Capitol Street. Of the 584 pupils enrolled only 15 of them live East of Third Street. Speaking of "the injustice" the petition states: "It will at once be seen what an injustice is involved to have the 584 pupils attending John F. Cook, many of them living as far west as 10th Street, cross a net work of car-tracks, autos and trucks, that use New Jersey Avenue morning on the way to the Union Station, the Printing Office, The House and Senate and all the places east of Fourth Street. That the change of site will prove unsatisfactory, will appear more certain, when it is recalled that the Slater-Langston group located there, is not crowded. "We have sought to place before Dr. Ballou are objections, to the proposed P Street site. He refused an interview, and sent us to Mr. Wilkinson from whom we have never had any satisfactory report. We addressed a letter to the then President of the Board, Mr. T. J. Callahan, but doubt if the matter went further than the Superintendent and Assistant Superintendent's office. "We respectfully request that this matter be referred to the proper committee of the Board, for immediate attention before a single resident shall be asked to move or a spadeful of earth turned.

Segregation everywhere, Jim-Crowism, too, Disfranchisement in the South Ku-Klux evil do. Lynching as a pasttime, Laws corrupted deep. Justice dreaming in the Courts, While Judges feign to sleep. Cross the mighty ocean Into foreign lands. Uncle Sam you'll find there Stretching forth his hands, Teaching them wise dogmas, How to keep the peace, While at home his black sons, Beseech him for relief. And oh! our boys fought nobly, All the world has said. Give them but the chance now, To live—to earn their bread. "Give me liberty or death," Patrick Henry cried. "Justice to all" Lincoln wrote Long before he died. Wake up justice, dreaming judge The blood bought flag unfurl, Equal chances with all men Is all we ask the world. Land of brave men and of free, We have not solace but in thee.

Lark, formerly of Washington, is having great success in his law practice in Welch, W. Va. His recent success in a murder case won for him the high esteem and confidence of the white and colored people of this county. His practice thereafter grew so rapidly that if was necessary for his brother, Thaddeus S. Lark, to join him and assist around the office. Now the brothers have formed a partnership and the younger is studying law under Attorney Lark. McDowell County is expecting much from Mr. Lark and his brother.

Art Department of Howard University The Commencement at Howard University probably meant more to the Art Department this year than ever before. For the first time this department had a graduate, Miss Alma Thomas of 1530 15th Street, Northwest, who received her B.S. in Art last Friday. Miss Thomas made an exceptional record in her work, showing much skill with the pen, brush, charcoal and clay. Her Murial design which is shown on page three in this paper, is considered an exceptionally fine piece of work. During the past year, Miss Thomas was granted permission to copy in the Freer Art Gallery, be- THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE SATURDAY, JUNE 14, 1924 ing the first colored person given this privilege. Prof. James V. Herring who has charge of this department ha don exhibit commencement week many fine specimens of art work done by his pupils. Under the caption of Pen and Ink, the work of Mr. W. E. Weir, J. B. Lomack and Jas. A. Porter, stood out. These sketches included many of the designs in the various publications of the school. The five and twenty-five minute sketches in coalware unusually well done. The anatomy sketches including the work of Ellis Bright in addition to the above-named students, was also very good. The repeated pattern designs embracing designs in wall paper, linoleum, tapestry, etc., was very attract- tive. In this branch, the work of Jennie W. Lee, Novleate I. Hall, and Mildred Carney was outstanding. The department also had on exhibit some fine specimens of modeling. This work is taught by Miss Mas Howard Jackson. Miss Alma Thomas's bust of a little girl was exceptionally well executed. Among the many other exhibits deserving praise was the relief work by K. Galloway; luminated manuscripts; drawings from the antique and other work. Next year this department will have a new instructor in the person of Miss Gwendolyn B. Bennett of New York University and Pratt Institute. She will teach designing and craft work. THE NEGRO VOTE IN THE NORTH.

The Bacharachs are still giving the league leaders a chase and scored a 3-2 victory over the Lincoln Giants early in the week. The Atlantic City clouters, Lundy, Lloyd, White and "Home-run" Mason, who on his last appearance here put one over the right field fence, are always drawing cards. Mack Eggleton is slated to hold down the hot corner while Goodrich is being treated by a local eye specialist. Eggleton is one of the most versatile men in pro baseball and is enjoying a good year. Hilldales Win From Potomacs Taylor's Recruit Pitcher Fans Nine Men Wilmington, Del., June 9—Hilldale defeated the Washington Potomacs in an Eastern Colored League game here today by the score of 3 to 1. It was a pitchers' battle between Red Ryan, for Hilldale, and Red Greer, a recent acquisition to the hurling corps of the Potomacs. The latter, although green and unpolished, acquitted himself creditably, allowing but seven hits Ryan, on the other hand, allowed eight hits and sent seven down via the strike-out route. Hilldale started scoring the very first inning. Warfield singled with one out. Lewis doubled against the left field wall his 'untied men' and 'widened the brown scored. Judy's third hit, a double and Mackey's single scored the other runs for Hilldale. Manager Ben Taylor, of the Capitol lads, scored the only run for his club when he hit a home run over the fence in the sixth Hilldale Carr,1b Warfield J.Johns' Thomas, G.Johns' Cockrell, Ryan,p Hildale r h a Potomacs r h a Carr,1b . 0 0 1 Goodrich,2b 0 1 3 Warfield,2b 1 2 3 Hamilton,ss 0 1 2 JJohns,n,3b 1 3 1 Taylor,lbf 0 1 2 Thomas,n,lf 0 1 2 Brown,rf 0 1 0 GJohns,n,cf 0 0 1 Eggleton,c 0 1 0 Cockrell,rf 0 0 0 Woods,cf 0 1 0 Ryan,p 0 0 5 Anderson,2f 0 0 4 2r Washington,lf 0 1 0 Greer,p 0 0 0 Shively, 0 0 0 Hampton,lf 0 0 0 Totals 3 7 14 Totals 1 8 11 Hildale 200 001 000—3 Potomacs 000 001 000—1 WINTER'S SUPPORT WOBBLES AND LINCOLNS WIN Aided and abetted by the numerous miscues of the home team; Jim Keenan's Lincoln Giants chalked up the second straight win over the Hilldale club on the home lot of the Philadelphiaians. The Giants put over four runs in the last two frames of play and clinched matters in a 10 to 4 victory. Dave Brown of the New York outfit and "Nip" Winters of the home club hooked up in a southpaw pitching duel and despite the fact that the New York contingent won by a jig handled score, Winters hurled effective ball and but for errors by his supporting cast, had a good chance to hang up another victory. "Bizz" Mackey was the chief offender on the Hilldale squad, the big short stop kicked in with a quartet of glaring miscues. Catcher "Texas' Burnett, of the Giants, although not in the game, rushed from the dugout and slugged Umpire Burton and according to the league rulings, a $100 fine and suspension is the penalty.

Eastern Colored League Potomac Notes Manager Taylor will show a greatly changed line-up against the Seashore team. Four players—Owens and Anderson, infielders, and Bell and Newsome, pitchers—have been let out. All were sent to an independent club at Providence (R. I.) except Anderson who returns to Kansas City, Wodos, outfielder, Smith, infielder and "Red" Greer, pitcher, all formerly of the Brooklyn Cuban Giants and Jenkins, pitcher from the Dayton (Ohio) club are the new men signed. Greer a left-hander, attended the A. & T college of Greensboro, N. C. Against the Hildale club Monday he fanned nine men, getting every man on the club at least once, excepting J. John son and Warfield. He will be sent against the Bacharach Sunday. Elias "Country" Brown is easily the most popular member of the Potomac squad. When it comes to color and pep he almost stands alone. Winning or losing, Brown's always fighting. Shively will be back in the garden soon. He was leading the club at bat when "charley horsed." Once Hamilton could get that eratic fielding out of his system, a good shortstop would be found. Few young ball players come up with a better eye at bat. Smith, the new infielder, has been sick every since he joined the club, but has about recovered. He has only faced a pitcher once since Taylor got him. On that occasion he banged out a homer as a pinch-hitter. He comes with a record of fourteen home-runs. "Stringbean" Williams has been suffering with a sore pitching wing. The Potomacs will make Wilmington (Del.) their home grounds for week day games in the future. The club has become extremely popular there. Manager Taylor claims his pitcher staff—Williams and Hampton, veterans, and Greer, Jenkins and Smith, youngsters—will be the best in the league in another month. Let us hope. RICHARDSON FAILS TO QUALIFY FOR FINALS Roland Richardson, the fast Shaw matched his speed against the fleetest in the country at the Eastern tryouts at New York, Saturday. Richardson ran creditably in both the 100-meter and 200-meter races but was forced to bow to the superoir speed and experience of such famed dashmen as Leconey, Murchison and Lovejoy.

JUNE 14. 1924 LOCAL PRODUCTS ARE HAVING GREAT YEAR Washington sandlot products continue to make their name in the professional ranks. The Eastern League boasts of four. The Hildale club has "Nimp" Winters and "Script" Lee. In the Black Sox line-up is "Jutt Wilson. "Pring" Garden is one of Harrisburg's leading hurlers. The Wilmington (Del.) Black Sox Club has many local products in its line-up. George Ford and "Buckley" Ridgeley former Black Sox players hold down infield berths. Greenfield and Barnes the St. Cyprian battery are also members of the club. Anthony Mahoney, a star whose pitching record fans have followed for years, is now convalescing at Walter Reed Hospital. Mahoney was with the Black Sox last season. According to those who follow amateur clubs at least two or three other players on local clubs are ready to move up. Ben Taylor pronounced Barner as a good prospect during good form in the Union League games. Nickens, shortstop of the Washington Giants has been loudly praised. Many claim Nickens good enough right now to fill an Eastern League berth. The Teddy Bears have a promising youngster in Fauntry, an outfielder, while in Barbour, Deanwood has a classy shortfielder. And there are many, many more, yet club owners send to all corners of the country and gamble on their prospects. EGGLETON LIKELY TO ESTABLISH CATCHING RECORD (By Lloyd P. Thompson) If Ben Taylor, mentor of the Washington Potomacs, has more than one catcher on his outfit, he has kept his identity shrouded in a deep mystery that would cause the average slueth to wear out more than one pair of gum shoes to find the missing catcher, in a box score. For during the fifteen league battles that the Washingtonians have waged hither and yon in the Eastern Circuit the name of Mack Eggleton has been a fixture in the Potomacs' lineup. This Eggleton person has a hunch that there is no hokum in that earning your living by the "sweat of the brow" and daily, bi-daily or regularly as it may be, does he do his stuff behind the opposing foemen's ash. Oftimes players of the plugging consistent type are overlooked, their achievements unsung and their relative worth to their club overshadowed by the fact that the club they are playing on is not up there in the thick of the fight for the top run, but the season is young and in fact every club in the Eastern Circuit has a chance to cop the bunting at this stage of the game. All of the pitchers appear to look alike to Eggleton, when it comes to handling their benders, the big boy smothers 'em all in his mitt with ease. His style of receiving is of the aggressive type that encourages a pitcher to get the old zip on the ball. With the exception of String Bean Williams and Hampton, the Washington team has a bunch of young pitchers and a man with the experience, patience and ability of Eggleton plays a prominent part in bringing new timber to the fore.

Scott, Tribune Sports Editor WEST'S CHANCE FOR OLYMPIC TEAM FADES Charles West, the great Washington and Jefferson track star failed miserably in the final Olympic pentathlon try-out at New York, Saturday, finishing in a tie for fourth place. West's poor form may cost him a place on the American Olympic team as it is thought that not more than three men will be carried to compete in the pentathlon. The W. & J. star failed to land a single first place. His best performance was in the javelin which he his time was 4 minutes, 39 8-10 second place. West finished third in the broad jump, leaping 21 feet $2\frac{1}{4}$ ins. In the 2000-meter run he finished fourth, timed in 23 9-10 seconds. His mark of 103 ft. $10\frac{1}{4}$ inches landed him in fourth place in the discus throw while in the 1500-meter run hi stime was 4 minutes, 39 8-10 seconds, the third best. Bob LeGendre, former Georgetown athlete, covered the events with the lowest score. Hope was generally expressed that five men would be taken to Paris to compete in the pentathlon. Ned Gourdin did not enter the try-out because of a bad ankle. He is resting for the broadjump event at the Harvard stadium today.

The writer prefers to read the story of the Wills-Madden fight from the pen of a Race sport writer who witnessed it before he draws a conclusion on Wills. The fight by rounds as sent out by the white press sounds much like a marathon race and a hugging contest with Madden the chief offender when either style would save him punishment. As it was Madden was a severely punished man. Wills is hardly the Wills of four years age but we still believe him the best scraper in the world. We also believe he tried his best to K. O. Madden but could not because of the latter's carefully planned defensive style of fighting coupled with a certain amount of natural ability that he has not in the past received credit for. Few if any of the heavies can win a decision over Madden. That includes Dempsey. Golf is slated to take a boom here among members of the Race within the next month. Last Saturday, a new nine-hole golf course, known as the Lincoln Memorial course, was opened for Race golfers. The National Capital Country Club is scheduled for a formal opening next month with all attractions including a golf link. Golf will never grow to great popularity among our group, because the masses have two much walking to do during their days labor to turn to a diversion of trailing a ball for miles. School teachers during summer vacation, students, physicians and others who ride around in automobiles the greater portion of the day may fall for the sport. But what about the old barn? Never that prefer see insurance agents, waiters, dentists ing the other fellow run. "LIONS" ANNOUNCE GRID SCHEDULE Dr. W. G.

June 19, 20, 21 DOROTHY DALTON IN 'The Moral Sinner' EVILLE ILSON presents RUDE & TRIO the Lord of Song and Dances" U STREET NEAR 14th Telenphone—North 7956 Letters to the Editor Let us hope it is not too late to unde the harm we have occasioned in passing the Japanese Exclusion Act. Just six years out of war and we are fast heading toward another. A question like this is too large to be decided upon by our present day representatives for all time, but should be put to a referendum vote by all the people. There is a great feeling that a war with Japan would be an insignificant one. The assassination of the Arch Duke of Servia was a trifling beginning. With the hatreds of the last great holocaust lingering and the munition makers, profiteering patriotic business men and war butchers still drooling over the profits and spoils of the last great conflict, it is not a hard matter to conjecture another world horror of superior dimensions. Japan will use the argument of America's belief in the inescapable inferiority of dark-skinned people as a means of consolidating the resources of Asia. The economic greed of many nations, the socialistic aversion to fighting nationalistic and patriotic inspired wars, growing religious and proletarist antipathy to war, the political tendencies of governments are reasons why it would be impossible to develop an all-white alliance to stem the dark-skinned battle line. France for example, depending upon her millions of black men of Africa could scarcely afford to support a principle of God-made inferiority of dark-skinned people. With a conglomerate polyglot population like ours ranging from colorless white of the Albino to the blackest black, the admixture of a few Japanese with our citizenry in proportion to the number of immigrants admitted yearly should matter little and should certainly not be a reason for passing discriminating laws against them. Our representatives have been accused of voting according to the messages they got by keeping their ears close to the ground. For the millions of souls of children or boys who have had no voice in the decision of the lawmakers and who may have to let their bodies rot like carron on so-called fields of honor it is devoutly to be wished that it is not yet too late without a sacrifice of that thing called national pride to make amends for what we have done to Japan with which no country has expressed approval. Japan has made rapid progress in this civilization but this civilization has not taught men how to avoid descending to the savagery of war. E. B. HENDERSON School Board Lauds Principal School Board Lauds Principal Commenting upon the manner in which Miss Laura Arnold, principal of Wormley school met the situation, when policemen entered the above school while in session early last April, causing a near panic between teachers and pupils, a report, submitted by a special committee composed of members of the board of education to investigate the affair, calls attention to the fact, that the principal acted promptly and with authority. The accused officers have had a hearing before the trial board and while the findings thus far is only a record of the court, it is positively certain that the police department is plainly convinced that sharp action on its part is needed to correct the evil. As stated in the Tribune recently, Maj. Sullivan has taken up the matter personally and issued an order to captains of the precincts to warn their men to stay out of school houses while in session and use other methods when making an arrest. This case has been very much in the limelight and the citizens as well as school officials are using every possible ounce of energy to see that justice is not miscarried.

THEATRICAL NEWS BORROWING HUSBANDS NOT GOOD BUSINESS "It's a wonder to me that somebody don't start a business of borrowing and loaning scenes of 'Borrowed Husbands,' which will be shown at the Broadway Theatre on Sunday, Monday and Tuesday. "There has been almost every scheme imaginable fostered upon the public in the past fifty years; but this one seems to have been omitted. "Perhaps many husbands have been borrowed without the consent of the lender," suggested Viole Palmer. And many of them were returned,' advised Florence Vidor who has the principal feminine role. "I don't know whether husbands have been loaned, strayed away, were captured or just naturally drifted, but it don't seem to me that an agency is at all necessary for the loaning of husbands," said Earle Williams.

"Some husbands like to be nice to other women," said Claire Dubrey, "so why should they object to being loaned. I should think they would like to act as escort to attractive girls with their wives' permission." "To pretty girls," said Rockliffe Fellows, "but each man has his own idea of beauty and the girl that might appeal to a wife is not necessarily attractive to her husband." VAUDEVILLE AND FEATURE PICTURES AT THE REPUBLIC A special vaudeville act—John Gertrude and his Trio of beauties—will be presented at the Republic for the entire week beginning Sunday, June 15th. Mr. Gertrude is a well-known and capable comedian and his trio of girls are especially talented. The act is full of comedy and song and dance. An entire new act will be presented by this company on Thursday, when the feature picture is changed. The feature picture on Sunday, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, June 15, 16, 17 and 18 will be a William de Mille production. "Icebound" tells the story of a young New Englander, whose smoldering revolt against the icebound moral restrictions of his stern New England elders burst into open flame following his return from the war in France. Expressing his revolt in card-playing and drinking escapades with the wilder young men of the community, he become entangled in one of the strangest love romances ever told. A comedy, newsreel and topics will also be shown. Dorothy Dalton in "The Moral Sinner" will be the feature attraction on Thursday, Friday and Saturday, June 19, 20, and 21.

For Sale at All Newsstands, 5 per copy Advertising Rates Furnished on Request THE G. O. P. The Republican Party of the United States has a rich heritage and a history full of achievements that the voters cannot and gen- erally do not seek to ignore. None more so than the Negro. It was under its banners that the mighty host marched to the de- fense of the Union and the liberation of the slave. The Freedman and his descendants have not forgotten this and have unfalteringly stood by their guns in defense of the old party, long enough for their gratitude not to be questioned. In the face of broken promises, hopes deferred, indifference and open hos- tility within the party, they have heretofore turned deaf ears to all who would have them desert. They would not forget the rock of their salvation. ‘ The matchless Frederick Douglass exclaimed tltat for him the Republican Party was the ship and all else the Sea. But patience| has long since ceased to be a virtue. The indifference of the party when in power has begotten indifference in the Negro. He ceases to listen to promises that he knows are made but to be broken. But | when the ship begins to sink every passenger boldly trusts him- self to the waves. He prefers to take his chances even against the raging sea than go down with a sinking ship. At the close of an administration which has become a byword for corruption and graft, the Negro of the District of Columbia| sees the District so-called representatives boldly claim seats in| the Republican convention because of the money that the organi-_| zation which sent them raised in the past campaign and will raise| in the oncoming. And their plea availed. The political philoso- phy seemed to be: “We will give you the money, you can buy the| votes,” and the committee on credentials listened to the voice of the contributors and paid no heed to those who claimed to repre- sent the voters. In the face of this performance can we credit. the hypocritical plank of the platform that deplores the corrup-| tion of public officials? In the same plank is contained the weak‘ answer to the challenge of the K.K.K. | It must be a poltroon party indeed that hesitates a single sec- ond as between government by lawfully constituted authority, and through the forms of law, and government by hooded mid- night prowlers. The Klan pretends to lift its voice in the affairs of this government, whose proud boast has been that it is a govern- ment of laws and not of men, yet the activities are such that its members must go masked because they are ashamed to look each other in the face; and yet the Republican Convention dared not even denounce them—as cheap as words are. How have the mighty fallen! The party of Lincoln and Grant and Roosevelt dares not defy a band of midnight assassins. Indeed the Republican party has lost its old time appeal to the Negro. The plank on the Anti-Lynch Law is a joke. For over: six months the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill has been pigeon-holed by a committee with a Republican majority and chairman. This same measure also fafled in the 67th Congress, where the G. O. P. had a preponderant majority. The Racial Commission also mentioned in the platform is with- out standing or support among the thinking Negroes. Any at- tempt to saddle such a commission on the race will be vigorously fought. The two bills pending in Congress, when it adjourned last week, calling for the appointment of such a commission, were vigorously protested when the committees in the House and Sen- ate held hearings on them. The Negro race will find no consolation in the Republican plat- form, in its councils, or in its Congress. The only recognition the race will receive, politically, will be that recognition which it forces by its votes, which should be given to parties because of their performances, and not because of promises.

As a fitting tribute to the support given these artist recitals by the music lovers of this city, Mrs. Francis, the chairman and her associated members have selected a list of artists of the highest importance. There are six unusually interesting musical attrae- tions, including the famous Weir- Jeter Trio of New York City; Wilson Lamb, baritone of New York and New Jersey whom the “Musical Courier” styles) as “Distinguished Singer”; Abbie Mitchell, soprano, who makes her second local appearance under this management and who has been hailed as the greatest singer of today by many able critics; R. Augustus Lawson, pignist, whom Leschetizky claims has poetry; Marion Anderson, contralto, who makes another loca appearance by request of many pa- trons and who captured New York’s leading critics last’ season in recital; and, the Howard University Orches- tra with Wesley Howard, violin solo- ist, a local recognized artist of im- portance, ‘The series of recitals will be held fl | _ Standard Investment and Development Co. |_ ‘The Standard Investment and Development: Company presents the follow-| ing report for three quarters of their year, July 31, 1923 to Mareh #1, 1991, In a letter to the stockholders, President Board ‘says: | So great is the increased value of our holdings that the Board of Directors Unanimously voted to sell no ‘more of its stock at par ($10 a share) unless| ‘the company decided to recapitalize and give a substantial stock dividend to all old stockholders of record. - Stock now held by shareholders is estimated to be worth around $20.00 a share. : : | |Our balance shect at the close of the last corporate year June 30, 1923,| showed notes payable to banks and private individuals in the sum of $5,850,| and nine months later, March 31, the sum has been reduced to $3,700.

PARKER u ee SOMETHING OF INTEREST Two “Intellectual” Murderers Mareus Garvey's Idealism A very unusual murder case has been revealed. Two millionaire Chi- cago boys—produets of a good en- vironment, having had exceptional ad- vantages, the best Sq |kind of training, % . and decent homes— - Ihave been charged 4 with the murder of ‘ ome of their play- 4 mates. It brings to bie a | light a type of men- : tal perversion of which we know lit- (I. L. Parker) tie and medical science not much more. For their ghastly crime isthe result of im- pulses which lie below that surface indented by education, | In the case of two Negro boys or poor murderers, the theory of black- mail would readily be accepted, even thought the crime be due to some type of mental perversion; but in the case jof Loeb and Leopold, sons of million- aires, who have enjoyed every luxury that money can buy, such a theory ‘is dismissed and one of mental per- version intfoduced as the real cause. Perhaps rightly so, For the crime is obviously senseless and the be- havior of the criminals undoubtedly abnormal. It is as if the human ‘mind were filled with education until ‘it burst, like a balloon, and the explo- sion causing irresponsible acts, such as mutilation, kidnapping, and| mur- der,—thereby indicating a limit to the ‘intellectual capacity of the “average” brain, _ Perhaps a more unique murder has never occurred in the annals of mur- der. Their alleged confessions indi- ‘cate murder pure and simple, with all ‘the premeditation, deliberation, mali- cious intent, lying in ambush, and perfect execution, together with the careful attempt to conceal. It is unique because it shows that more ghastly criminals may come out of comfortable and respectable environ- ment.‘ Society is largely responsible for the crimes committed by children of the poor not because they are poor, but because the viciousness of their environment is brought to the atten- tion of courts, social workers, minis- ters and teachers. These agencies of righteousness are fully warned of the probable danger of children of the poor drifting into a career of crime, and responsibility is placed at their doors not because of the poverty of the children but because of the fail- ure to act cn the warning. But in the case of Loeb and Leo- pold, though it has not been shown whether symptoms appeared in time ‘to warn the parents and teachers who 'were responsible for them, we can not assess society with the responsibility. For public institutions had no early warning of symptoms of depravity. When the final diagnosis is made there is one thing certain. However, ‘monstrously twisted their constitu. tions may be, society should not be forced to witness another performance of Harry K, Thaw. Death is their Hob—or repeat othe.

The turmoil in which courts, families, doctors, lawyers, and care- takers would be kept over two hope- less creatures’ to' the end of their natural lives can not be justified un- der the present interpretation of the law. ee ee However absurd or amusing, the Provisional Republic of Africa, — the Sublime Order of the Nile, and the Distinguished Order of Ethiopia may be in their endeavors, we must at least give eredit to Marcus Garvey, President General, for his efforts in trying to make a downtrodden race have belief in itself, its history, its prophets, its .chafacter, and its des- tiny. At “the Fourth International Con- vention of the Negro Peoples of the World,” a program to deify “Jesus as the Black Man of Sorrow,” canonize “the Virgin Mary as a Negress,” and idealize Ged as “a creature of ima- ginary semblance of the black race, being of like image and likeness” was taken up. There is at least courage in it for those who have faith in it. German professors and military au- thorities induced courage in the ranks during the war by-diseovering God to be a German God. The Allies did the same by an opposite discovery. The sort of courage every warring nation, every warring faction deludes itself into when it believes it is right. God is with the right, it is right, there- fore, God must be with it is the gen- éral belief. .
