Morr Client on eve of Big T senting Him for Atty. John H. Wilson Notes Appeal on Grounds that by Jury. Department Prosecu Joseph Sterling Graves, proprietor of Graves' Cafe, 18-20 G Street, Northwest, was sentenced to one year in jail and fined $1000.00 in Equity Court by Justice Stafford, Thursday. Mr. Graves was charged with violation of the Prohibition Law. Justice Stafford permitted his sentence to begin with the first day he was removed to jail without bail which was June 25th. The Justice denied Mr. Graves bail, although his attorney filed an appeal. Atty. T. Morris Wampler (white) who represented Mr. Graves in all previous cases regarding his alleged violations of the Prohibition Law, did not represent Mr. Graves Wednesday. Atty. Wampler, it is alleged, informed Mr. Graves late Monday night that he would not continue as his representative in the case, which was then ready for trial. This left Mr. Graves practically before the Court without a lawyer. At this point, Atty. John H. Wilson was called in by Mr. Graves. As he was new in the case, Atty. Wilson asked Justice Stafford for a continuance, which was denied. Arrayed against Atty. Wilson was Assistant District Attorney Kelley and two special Attorneys from the department of justice. During the trial Wednesday, over a thousand bottles of liquor, alleged to have been taken from Graves' $ \mathrm{Ca}^{2+} $ during the various raids, were on display in the Court room. The bottles occupied all the tables and benches not reserved for spectators in the Court. This wilful display evidently had a great effect on the Justice. Attorney Wilson noted an appeal Fifteenth Annual of N.A.A.C.P. Philadelphia; The Fifteenth Annual Conference of the N.A.A.C.P. met in Philadelphia, Wednesday of this week. The Convention will be in session through Tuesday, July 1st. A varied and interesting program has been arranged by the Philadelphia and Atlantic City branches. The Convention is meeting in the First African Baptist Church. Mayor Kendricks, of Philadelphia, welcomed the Convention to the city. Among those who are to address the conference are: Atty. Moorfield Storey, Boston; Congressman L. C. Dyer, Missouri; Hon. Ira Jayne, Detroit, Secretary of Labor; James J. Davis; Prof. Allaine L.

Graves' Cafe, while being subject to a padlock injunction, was not and has not been padlocked by the Government. However, after being harrassed so by the Prohibition Agents, Mr. Graves closed his place about two weeks ago. Many rumors were current that Mr. Graves had violated this injunction but he had not. The charge against him, was, that the Court had charged him not to violate the Prohibition Law for one year; during which time, it is alleged, he violated the Court order. Therefore, he was arraigned Wednesday for violation of the Court's orders on April 8th and other dates. Joseph S. Graves is one of the most well known cafe men in Washington, he operated a cafe here for over twelve years. Graves' Cafe was the finest equipped place owned by colored here. Mr. Graves maintained his leadership by giving superior service and unexcelled food. He carried food on hand at all times, enough food to serve a thousand people, within a few minutes notice. Mr. Graves, because of his illness, will probably spend most of his time in Galligher Hospital. His sentence is to be served in the local jail. Attorney Wilson is bending every effort to have Mr. Graves committed to bail. John Haynes Holmes, New York City; Congressman Theodore E. Burton, Ohio; Senator David I. Walsh, Mass.; Mr. F. B.

Beside taking up the various problems affecting the administrative end of the Association, the program calls for a discussion of various civic and Political problems affecting the race in general. On Saturday, June 28th, all delegates and visitors will go to Atlantic City for a special one day service. WASHINGTON, D. C. SATURDAY, JUNE 28, 1924 JUDSON W. LYONS FORMER REGISTER DEAD IN GEORGIA Augusta, Ga., June 23—Judson W. Lyons, former Register of the Treasurer of the United States, died here yesterday. He was sixty-six years old. Mr. Lyons was prominent in national politics for a long period of years. He was a member of the Republican National Committee from 1896 to 1908. He was appointed Register of the Treasury in 1898 to succeed the late B. K. Bruce. He was born in Burke County, Georgia, in 1858. He was a graduate of Atlanta Baptist College, now Morehouse, and later studied law at Howard University, where he completed his course in 1884. He practiced law in Georgia until his official duties took him to Washington, D. C. He married Miss Jane Hope, the sister of President John Hope of Morehouse College. He leaves a widow, two daughters, Hope and Edith, and one son, Judson W., Jr. His two daughters are teachers in the public schools of the District of Columbia. URGE TEACHERS RECEIVE PAY YEAR ROUND In a few days, the new salary bill, regulating the pay of teachers, supervisory officers and other employees of the local public school system, goes into effect and the old one automatically repealed. There is a section in the law, that permits certain principals to receive their pay in twelve installments instead of ten; hence on August the first, these employees, coming under this rule, will receive their first check and each month thereafter throughout the year. This removes the inconvenience so many teachers suffer during the summer vacation and who are forced in some instances to go in debt to tide them over until the next school session begins. It is regretted that those who were so thoughtful as to establish this new method, were not a little more liberal, include every teacher and wipe out the hardship caused by the ten-month installment plan now in use. School teachers are highly trusted public servants, loyal to their profession and respond freely to any demand. Surely some recognition should be shown for faithful service. The Tribune has always felt and still feels that the public school teachers of the city should receive their money the year around, as others employed of the government do and while no suggestion is in mind, yet the belief is that the teachers would greatly aid this contention, if they would take up the matter, as soon as school opens, sign a petition, go to Congress when it convenes and let them know what is wanted. OFFERED PRIZES FOR BUILDING HOMES Birmingham, Ala., June 28 (P. N. S.)—The interracial commission of Birmingham has offered cash prizes totaling $1,000 to stimulate the building of better homes for Negroes in this city. The contest which is fostered by leading white citizens will run for one year. First Democratic Delegate Comes From N. Y. City By Lester A. Walton In the New York World For the first time in the history of American politics a Negro is an accredited member of the New York State delegation at a Democratic National Convention in the person of Dr. Paul A. Collins, No. 221 West 135th Street. He is an alternate to Murray Hulbert from the 21st Congressional District. Owing to pressure of business the President of the Board of Aldermen found it necessary to be absent from the convention the latter part of the week and notified Dr. Collins to be on hand to sit with the New York delegates. The selection of Dr. Collins as an alternate is in recognition of the large Negro vote polled by the Democratic Party in New York County since 1921. Up to that time the Negro Democratic vote was negligible. Today both the 19th and 21st Districts, where live the bulk of the Negro population in Harlem, are Democratic. The Democratic Alderman and Assemblyman from the 21st are Negroes. Representative Weller is a Democrat. Dr. Collins, born in Oakland, Cal. is a graduate of Lincoln University Pennsylvania, and the Flower Hospital, having studied for medicine from 1909 to 1913, when Senator Copeland was dean. He is an assistant surgeon at the New York Ophthalmic Hospital. BUTLER TALKS OF APPOINTMENTS WHILE HERE William M. Butler, new chairman of the Republican National Committee, is in the city conferring with party leaders in regard to the coming campaign. It is expected that he will make a selection of the persons who will have charge of the campaign among colored voters. While there is no intimation as to who will be chosen, it is certain that neither National Committeeman Perry W. Howard nor Henry Lincoln Johnson will be named. They have asked not to be considered. Both of them, however, will be used as speakers. A successor to the late Phil H. Brown, who had charge of the publicity at the Chicago headquarters four years ago, will also be selected. There are many aspirants for this place, including Nahum D. Brascher and Claud A. Barnett of the Associated Negro Press and Melvin J. Chisum, field secretary of the National Negro Press Association. AGED WOMAN PASSES AWAY Mrs. Isabella Wade, aged 97 years, after an illness of three years, died last Saturday evening, 11 o'clock, at St. Elizabeth Hospital. She leaves to mourn their loss: one sister, Mrs. Maggie Goines, Rock Hill, S.C.; four children, Joseph Wade, Philadelphia, Pa.; Phoebe Campbell, W. B. Wade this city and David Wade, Kankakee, Ill.; seven grand-children and five great-grand-children. The funeral services were held Wednesday at Galbraith A. M. E. Zion Church, Rev. W. D. Battle, officiating, assisted by Rev. Watson, pastor of Metropolitan A. M. E. Zion Church. The bodily was interred in Payne CONVENTION DISAPPOINTED OVER LETTER CONVENTION DISAPPOINTED Philadelphia, Pa.—One of the big features of the opening of the Fifteenth Annual Conference of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People here was the reading of a letter from President Calvin C. Coolidge. The President's letter, however, was one of the big disappointments of the opening day. Some few weeks ago the officials of the National Association wrote President Coolidge asking him to state specifically his views on the Ku Klux Klan, especially with reference to the Indiana situation. He was asked to send his reply so it could be read at this convention. In the reply received from the President, he completely ignored all the questions asked him about the Klan and confined his whole letter to the conference, with the exception of an introductory paragraph, to his recent speech delivered at Howard University's Commencement three weeks ago. In the Howard University speech the President evaded all questions in which the race is interested and simply spoke of the "great progress" the Negro race has made since slavery Out of an address of 1875 words, according to a compilation by the Afro-American, the President used the word "Colored" fourteen times, "Negro" eleven times, "Black" twice; "Race" nine times, and "African" once. After the reading of the President's message, there was an audible silence in the convention and each face bore a sad and disappointed look. ISAAC H. NUTTER MARRIED HERE THURSDAY Attorney Isaac H. Nutter of Atlantic City, N. J., was married to Miss Mary H. Gordon of Trenton, amoon, June 26, at First Baptist Church, 6th and G Streets, Southwest, by Reverend James H. Marshall. Mrs. Marie M. Marshall and Mrs. Mildre Knight stood with the bride. The party left immediately for Atlantic City. Mr. and Mrs. Nutter were recipients of hearty congratulations. Attorney Nutter recently won a favorable decision from the courts in the recent attempt to disbar him. At the station to see the party off were Dr. W. H. Jackson, Lawyer J. Franklin Wilson, E. Lawson, Mr. M. M. Morton and Dr. Smith. ALLEGED AX WEILDER IS DENIED CHANGE OF VENUE Birmingham, Ala., June 28 (P. N. S.)—A motion for a change of venue for Frank Ownes, charged with attacking F. W. Warren and F. M. Hawkins, with an ax and robbing them, was denied by Judge Fort in Circuit Court here Thursday. Attorneys for Ownes in the motion contended that the public mind is so inflamed in Birmingham by newspaper accounts of the ax murders that faintrial cannot be obtained. Ownes, who according to officials, has confessed the attack, entered a plea of not guilty by reason of insanity when the trial opened. His case was set for two weeks ago, but was postponed when he injured himself in a jump from the high window in the court room. WILL BE FIRST TIME IN HISTORY RACE MAN HAS RECEIVED NOMINATION Madden's Record in Office Shows Little Real Service Rendered Race although he has had Big Opportunities Is Master Stroke by Democrats Mr. Dickerson is Well Known in Chicago where he holds Office of Assistant Corporation Counsel Dr. Geo. E. Cannon Calls Race Republicans to Meet in Atlantic City Next Week Office: 920 U St., N.W. R IN AGAINST M WILL BE FIRST THE HISTORY RAC RECEIVED Madden's Record in Office Service Rendered R has had Big Op Is Master Stroke Mr. Dickerson is Well Known in Office of Assistant Co New York City—The Illinois Democrats to the National Democratic Convention here this week at the organization of delegates, threw a bombshell into the camp of Representative Martin B. Madden, of Illinois, by announcing that Assistant Corporation Council, Earl B. Dickerson, of Chicago, will be offered the Democratic nomination to oppose Mr. Madden. Nothing has happened in Chicago politics, in recent years, which so upset Mr. Madden, as the announcement of Dickerson's candidacy. For years Mr. Madden has pacified his Colored constituency by proposing first one measure and then another for the race's benefit, but somehow not any of these proposals have ever gone through. Although he represents one of the largest Colored dominated districts in the country, no piece of legislation for the relief of the Negro bears his name. His record consists of more or less a few personal appointments and some favorable remarks about the race put in the Congressional Record. The Democrats in proposing Mr. Dickerson's candidacy have made a master stroke. Dr. Geo. E. Cannon Race Republic in Atlantic City Jersey City, N. J., June 25—A call for another conference has been issu ed by Dr. George E. Cannon, of Jersey City, N. J., who was pitilessly booed at the Republican National Convention in Cleveland when he be gan telling a rather pointless story in a speech seconding the nomination of President Coolidge. Colored Republican Conference This is the third conference that he has proposed within a year. Last year he issued a call for a con- ference in Atlantic City, July 20-21, of "all colored Republicans in states where they vote." In May after his election as a delegate to the Republican National Convention he issued a call for a conference on May 22, last, in Jersey City, N. J., of all colored delegates and alternates to that convention. The third call is for a session of the National Colored Republican Conference—whatever that is—which was born at the conference of "all colored Republicans in states where they vote" held last year. It will be held in Atlantic City, July 3. This call is signed by Dr. George E. Cannon, president, Jersey City; Mrs. Daisy Lampkins, vice-president, Washington's Best Advertising Medium. Price 5 Centa JAIL MADDEN TIME IN ACE MAN HAS ED NOMINATION Office Shows Little Real Race although he Opportunities like by Democrats n in Chicago where he holds Corporation Counsel has been watching closely the success of Tammany Hall, New York City, in its dealing with the colored voters and he desires to create the same situation in Chicago. Therefore, the Democrats realizing that they cannot beat Madden with a white candidate, he intends to kill two birds with one stone, merely by nominating a man who has a good chance of defeating Madden, and who will at the same time attract a large number of Colored voters to the Democratic ticket. Earl Dickerson is well known in Chicago and Illinois, having graduated from the University of Illinois, and the University of Chicago. He has been active in Chicago politics as a Democrat, and when Mayor Dever was elected, with the aid of the Negro voters, Mr. Dickerson was one of the first to be given a worth-while position. Mr. Dickerson served in the late war and is Commander of the Giles Post of the American Legion. This is the first candidacy of a Negro Congressman that has the support of a national party, to be announced this year. It also comes at a time when the masses are demanding representation at the United States Capitol. annon Calls icans to Meet City Next Week Pittsburgh; Dr. Walter G. Alexander, executive secretary, Orange, N. J.; James E. Kefford, recording secretary, Waterbury, Conn., and C. C. Fitzgerald, Baltimore. The significance of the conference is gleaned from the statement in the call that "this is a National Campaign year," which may be interpreted to mean that there is work to be done for which padded expense accounts may be rendered and checks in payment thereof received from the treasurer of the Republican National Committee. It may be, however, that before this feature is gone into, the problem of selecting suitable personages to manage the Republican campaign among colored voters will be considered. Dr. Cannon is in a receptive mood, it is understood, and nothing would be more fitting or logical than to have this conference, of which he is president, to indorse himself. Meanwhile, progressive Negroes thought the nation are looking toward a conference of colored Republicans in the ninth congressional district of New Jersey, the object of which will be to select a candidate for Congress. --- SOMETHING OF INTEREST By I. L. PARKER Plank Specifying Klan Farm-Labor Parties Senator La Follette and W. Z. Foster Convention leaders have shown much concern over the Democratic National Platform touching Kluxery. Some would omit all mention of it entirely; others insist that a satisfactory anti-Klan plank may be had by a comprehensive platform utterance without specifically mentioning the Klan; while still others, under "Boss" Brennan of Illinois mention of it entirely; others insist that a satisfactory anti-Klan plank may be had by a comprehensive platform utterance without specifically mentioning the Klan; while still others, under "Boss" Brennan of Illinois. (I. L. Parker) will not be satisfied unless the plank is so made as to cover "any sect or order or creed" and at the same time specifically mention the Klan. As we write it is not known just how the plank will read when it is finally accepted by the Convention. However, we are of the opinion that a plank specifically mentioning the name of the organization against which its expressions are directed will be more effective, psychologically. An accurate description of the motives and methods of the Ku Klux Klan and a repudiation of them so clear that there can be no doubt as to the target of this part of the platform will bind the party, morally, but will not be so efficacious in vote-getting as one of specific denunciation. Senator Glass of Virginia presented a comprehensive plank,—so did many others,—but not one so specific as that presented by E. H. Moore of Ohio. If Mr. Moore, supported by Messrs, Brennan of Illinois, Guffey of Pennsylvania, and other leaders should rewrite his plank so as to deal with sects or creeds as well as the Klans, the denunciation would be broad enough to cover past, present, and future organizations of this sort of skulking outlawry. It seems absurd that either Party should be affrightened into hiding behind a feeble mumble of words about constitutional guarantees of religious freedom. If the Committee on Resolutions honestly believes that the Klan is a menace, it should have the courage to let its expressions be specific and denunciatory. Three Farm-Labor Parties have preceded the one which convened in St. Paul last week: National Farmer-Labor Party formed in Chicago, 1920, on call of Committee of Forty-eight, died 1921 Farmer-Labor Party formed in St. Louis, 1922, at meeting called by John Fitzgerald and others of Chicago, died in 1922; Federated Farmer-Labor Party, formed in Chicago, 1923, died in May, 1924. An analysis of the platform of the assertion of Chairman Joseph Manley recent party in St. Paul, dispute the of the Platform Committee that it is not a communistic document, shows a strict conformity to the latest industrial program of the Soviets, and an advocacy of the Soviet system of division of lands. Therefore, we may expect it to share the ill-fate of its predecessors. The program calls for the nationalization of all large industries, leaving the small ones in the hands of individuals. The Soviets are now trying to work a similar system after the abandonment of their earlier policy of nationalizing everything. Sovietism bids an "organization of workers in industry until industry comes under the control of those who produce, subject only to such control as will protect the interest of producers as a whole." A like similarity is seen in the demand for the repeal of the national banking laws and Government operation of all banks to the system now in operation of all banks to the system now in operation in Russia. Planks on which all liberals agree and some on which the more conservative can stand—the abolition of child labor, the establishment of various forms of social insurance—may be found scattered throughout the platform. Perhaps the bid which appeals most to Colored Americans is the plank which calls for the abolition of all Jim Crow lands and "full equality, economic and political, for the Negro people," with the hope of bringing "into effect the equality of the Negro at the ballot box, in the use of public services and places and institutions of public resort." Senator La Follette, thought he at one time seemed inclined to accept the Presidential nomination of the new Farmer-Labor Party organized at St. Paul, haughtily turned his back on the St. Paul group because its action was too openly dictated from Moscow, William Z, Foster, who Fall Time the time to give your dances and receptions Several of the Best Dates of the Dancing Season Can Be Booked AT THE CASINO where the floor is smooth and restful and the ventilation good and healthful Apply at Office, 920 U St., N.W. chooses to use the party as an instrument in his fight for control of the labor and farmer element which are willing to specialize in third party movements, has now put up a Presidential ticket of his own for trading purposes at Cleveland. He may withdraw it and indorse the La Follette ticket for political values received; he may try to induce part of the Cleveland delegates to join him in naming a new ticket; or he may, as a last resort, keep the St. Paul ticket in the field and withhold from La Follette the support of the extreme third party elements. Ruthenberg, Fosters' lieutenant, flatly opposed a La Follette indorsement and said: "A solid Farmer-Labor Party that can cast 1,000,000 votes is better than a coalition of all minority groups that might cast 5,000,000." It is very unlikely that the Cleveland delegation will compromise with Foster. La Follette may receive a nomination on his railroad record. I fact, we believe that his greatest strength will be shown when he attempts to win union labor votes by exploiting his railroad ownership views and at the same time use his war record, his opposition to the Versailles Treaty to attract the hyphenate groups, and his pleas for Soviet recognition as a bait for the Red radicals, whose greatest desire is to destroy the American Federation the American Federation of Labor. MISS ROSA CECILE HERSHAW BECOMES BRIDE OF DR. GRANADY The marriage of Miss Rosa Ceceile Hershaw, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Lafayette M. Hershaw of 2215 13th Street, Northwest, Washington, D.C. to Dr. James T. W. Granady of New York City, took place Wednesday evening, June 18 at 7:30 o'clock. The ceremony was performed in the home of the bride, the Rev. Thomas J. Brown, rector of St. Luke's Episcopal Church, officiating.

One day I heard of Exelento Quinine Pomade for the hair and purchased a jar. Almost immediately it stopped all dandruff, made my hair grow long, soft and fine, and gave it a delightful sheen. Because of the perfectly wonderful results I obtained from Exelento Quinine Pomade, I purchased a jar of Exelento Skin Beautifier. It changed my sallow complexion to a clear, lovely skin, glowing with health. For pimples and other skin blemishes, it has no equal. If I am as beautiful as people say, it is all due to Exelento preparations. Exelento Quinine Pomade and Exelento Skin Beautifier may be obtained for only 250 at most drug stores, or will be sent postpaid upon receipt of price by the EXELENTO MEDICINE CO. Atlanta, GA AGENTS WANTED EVERYWHERE Write For Particulars RO" The Tribune Sport Review Local Independents in Mad Scramble For Union League Pennant PAGE FOUR Local Ind Tigers Win Pair To Take Lead BUFFALOES PUT OVER THREE BIG TRADES Double victories by the Teddy Bears and the LeDriot Tigers over the Va. All-Stars and St. Cyprians, respectively, and a single win by the Oriental Tigers over the Buffalose, caused quite some shifting in this week's standing of the Union League clubs. The Tigers for the first time this season are at the top of the heap, closely followed by three other clubs—Bears, Orientals and Saints—with the Giants and D'eanwood but two games away. Big Trades Made Sweeping changes were made by the managers of various teams. No less than three deals were put over by Manager Harris of the Buffaloes. The biggest trade was completed between the Giants and Buffaloes. "Spike" Bland, last year's leading independent pitcher, and Nixon, generally regarded as the class of local shortstops, were traded by Manager Jones of the Giants to the Buffaloes for Williams and Smart. Manager Poe of the Orients announced the release of Joe Lucas to the Buffaloes for a cash consideration with no players involved. The Buffaloes also got the Harris brothers, Van and John, from the Teddy Bears, in exchange for Harry Johnson. The addition of the five new players is expected to make the Buffaloes a real contender. Player Suspended and Fined Player Suspended and Fined George "Lefty" Smith, the temperamental southpaw of the LeDroit Tigers, was suspended for two weeks and fined $1.50 by the league officials for his behavior during Sunday's games. Smith's action nearly caused a small riot on the St. Cyprian's diamond. The trouble occurred when he was called out on a close play at second by Umpire Fish Barbour. Smith protested vigorously and is alleged to have used language unbecoming a player for which he was put out of the game. Shortly after he had reached the bench he picked up a ball and heaved it at Umpire Barbour, barely missing the latter's head. But for the cool-headedness of the players, the ball game might have been broken up. Fells Leads Bears According to a report going the rounds, Tom Fells has again taken over the reigns as manager of the Teddy Bears. It was Thomas who carried the Bears through last season's Twilight League, a contender all the way. Harmony is evidently within the Bears ranks again, which means they must be watched. MD. WHITE SOX BOOK FOUR GAMES The Maryland White Sox took a double-header from the Manchester Giants Sunday by the score, 6-3, 4-1.

TITLELE IN CENTRAL DASH Pittsburgh, Pa., June 27 (P.N.S.) Miss Ruth Allen, star girl athlete from the Westinghouse High School, added more laurels to her already splendid record, by winning the senior girl's championship in the 100- yard dash at the A.M.A. track field Press meet, held Saturday at Kenny- wood Park and placing third in the 50-yard dash for girls. Her time in the century dash was 13 second even, qualling the girl's A.M.A. record. TIGERS DOWN TREASURY The LeDroit Tigers defeated the Treasury team of the Departmental League in an exhibition game in Brookland, Saturday, by the score, 7 to 2.

HUBBARD HAS ODD WAY OF JUMPING De Hart Hubbard, of the University of Michigan, is the strangest broad jumper that ever donned a pair of spiked shoes. His leap of 25 feet 3-8 inch at the recent Olympic trials at Cambridge, Mass., won him first place in the event, and it was his first try at that. Hubbard runs to the take-off like a dash man, and after he leaps he begins to "climb" through the air. That is the only manner in which his feat can be described, for it is exactly as a man "treads" water when in swimming. His legs fly out as if he were crawling for a toehold in the air, and he does this several times before he finally lands. It looks as if he were fighting to stay in the air until he is satisfied to land. His novel manner of jumping makes him look for all the world as if he were "climbing" while off the ground. BATTLING SKI BEGINS TRAINING FOR SCRAPS New York, June 27—Battling Siki started training this week up at Grupp's gymnasium and hopes to be ready to take up employment within the squared circle in about three weeks. Bob Levy, who is handling Siki, has many offers for his services, but he will not close any matches until he is confident that his charge is ready to give a good account of himself. CUBANS LOSE BARO Although the Cuban Stars took a double-header from the Bushwicks, one of New York's strongest white semi-pro nines by the scores 8-4 and 14-6, the double win cost the services of one of their best players, right-fielder Baro who crashed into the right fence and had to be carried off the field with a fractured ankle. WINTERS PILES 'EM UP When "Nimp" Winters turned the Royal Giants back last week he registered his ninth victory in eleven starts against league clubs. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE SATURDAY, JUNE 28, 1924 HILDALE CLUB DEFEATS BLACK SOX IN SLUGGEST Philadelphia, June 19—The Baltimore Black Sox made their first appearance of the season at Hilldale Park and were turned back by the locals in a game featured by heavy hitting on both sides, score 9 to 7. Red Ryan for the home team opposed George Britt, who has been hurling sensational ball for the Monumental City crew this season. Ryan had all the better of the argument up until the seventh inning, in fact the home team had pecked away at Britt's benders in the first six frames, until they had amassed an eight run lead. Britt was removed from the scene of action in the sixth inning and Force prevented further scoring during his stay on the mound. Ryan ran into trouble in the seventh inning, the Baltimore crew putting over three runs and duplicating the feat in the eight. Jess Winters was called into the fray to stop the threatening Sox. Bizz Mackey and Judy Johnson led the Hildale team with the stick, each snaring three hits, while Lefty Smith with a brace of doubles led the Sox.

Stellar pitching by White featured. Butler for the Indian Head also was in good form. MAJOR ALLEN IS RED CAPS' SECOND SACKER Dr. Major Allen, Howard graduate of 1924 and baseball coach, is holding down the keystone sack for the New York Pennsylvania station Red Caps, Crossen, the former Boston University shortstop is also playing for the Caps, as are a number of other collegians. BECKWITH WITH SOX The Baltimore Black Sox added another star to its roster last week in the person of Beckwith who was placed at shortstop last Sunday. Beckwith was with Rube Foster's American Giants last season but started the present campaign with Cum Posey's Homestead Grays. He is an all-round performer and heavy hitter. With fair pitching the Sox will be mighty hard to beat in the future. SPORTS CHATTER By H. Scott, Tribune Sports Editor As this is being written the entire city is singing the praises of Clark Griffith's Nationals. The club jumped from a second division berth to the top almost over night. What struck us so forbly was the reaction of local fans toward the locals when victories started coming in. Everybody likes a winner. It has been the writer's contention all spring that the Potomacs, once they went on a rampage and annexed a flock of wins, would take a similar place with local fans. But the Potomacs failed, pitifully. They did not play the brand of ball to thrill the fans. If they had there would have been no need of transferring the week-day games to Wilmington. Four defeats and no victories is the record of Ben Taylor's Washington Potomacs since they left their home-grounds. The Brooklyn Royal Giants and Lincoln Giants have feasted upon the locals with two winsings each. The club is now on equal terms with the Cuban Stars for the honor of holding down the cellar position. The Harrisburg Giants, Bachin in that order begin June 27, and arachs and Black Sox are to be faced extending through July 6th. And*in the face of these games and the pace the club is now maintaining, or the rarest of optimists could predict a higher place than that which the club now holds. Few changes have been made in the Union League W. L. Pct.

Dies From Heat James Frierson of Deanwood, while working on a building at Second and V Streets Northwest, Saturday, was fatally struck by the intense heat. Another employee placed him in his automobile and rushed him to Freedmen's Hospital. But before doctors could apply restoratives the man was dead. His body was removed to the morgue. John Taylor, 20, of 1507 P Street Northwest, was drowned in the Potomac River Saturday while bathing at the foot of Half Street. A Clergyman Defined New York, June 28—James Thomas testifying yesterday in General Sessions at the trial of two Negroes on a charge of robbing him of $35 two weeks ago, told Judge Talley and the jury that there was a difference between a clergyman and a minister of the gospel, as he described himself. He said that an ordained clergyman was a man who rode on trains on a clergy ticket, but that ministers of the gospel did not "accept of such advantages." The witness said that he was a Baptist and lived at 213 West 134th Street. He said that on the night of the robbery Fletcher Roseberry, a Negro met him at Seventh Avenue and 124th Street and Seventh Avenue and asked him to come to 164 West 133d Street, where a brother was dying and needed spiritual ministration. When he entered the apartment, Thomas added, he was set upon by Roseberry and the second defendant, Jeoffrey Mills of 12 West 133d Street. The trial will be continued. Still Losing SCHEDULE club's line-up since the opening game. Yet it has been on a gradual toboggan toward the bottom. Jenkins and Grier, pitchers, Smith, infielder and Woods, outfielder have been the only additions. The catching staff has been weakened through the shifting of Eggleton to third. Third-base has been strengthened. There is no way possible for Eggle to play as badly as Godrich did when he was stationed there. Goodrich at second is no improvement over Anderson. Illness has kept second baseman Smith back. Hamilton is not the calibre of short-stop for an Eastern League club. True he can hit but his erratic fielding will cost many games. The club has felt the absence of Shively who is laid up with a severely pulled tendon in his leg. Brown has played in-and-out baseball. Washington is due for a ride. New faces are needed. Watch Tally Holmes Who will win the national singles tennis championship this summer? Edgar Brown, according to officials, will not be re-instated in time to compete in the nationals. Otherwise it would be a case of Brown against the field. Now, it is a very open affair. It would not surprise us any to see the "old master," Tally Holmes, stage a come-back and regain the title that formerly was his, almost by acclamation. Reports from the courts here state that Tally is flashing all of his old-time form which certainly won't be pleasant news to the many youngsters who have dreamed of winning the title. Departmental League Treasury's Defeat Tightens Dept. Race The Treasury nine of the Departmental League suffered its first defeat of the current season Monday at the hands of the City Post Office nine. This defeat put the Treasury and Veterans Bureau clubs on even terms. The Treasury nine has won the league cup for a number of years. The team this year is without the services of many of its former stars. The rules adopted last year which only allow three outsiders to play on a league club nearly wrecked the Treasury. Bland, who led the club to victory last year is no longer connected with the club. His loss was keenly felt. Grant is the leading moundsman, while the club is managed by W. Ellis. The Veterans Bureau has only been represented in the league two seasons. In its first year the team finished in the second notch. Nothing but the cup will satisfy the Vets this year, according to Manager Jack Coles. Many postponed games are to be played off in the near future which means that whatever club wins most have plenty of class. Bi - State Association Elects New Officers Annapolis, Md, June 28.-The B-State Association, I, B, P, O, E, of W., composed of the lodges of Maryland and Delaware, held a brilliant and successful convention here last week, several of the most prominent persons in public life being in attendance.

BOY DROWNS IN HATCHIE CHUTE Memphis, Tenn., June 27 (P. N. S.) —George Cable, an employee at the Panama Cafe, was drowned Thursday in the Hatchie Chute where he had gone for a swim. Garvey Asks $2,000,000 New York City, June 28.—Under the caption, "Colonization of Africa by Negroes as Solution of Race Problem," the Universal Negro Improvement Association ran a page advertisement in the New York World daily last Wednesday morning. The statement amounts to a request from the general public for funds for the colonial development of Liberia for Negro inhabitation. Part of the plea reads: "The Universal Negro Improvement Association . . . aim at assuming the responsibility of helping to develop Liberia as a natural home for Negroes. . . The following plans have been decided on. . . That the association is to build four colonies in the Republic, the first on the Cavalla River. The first batch of colonists will sail from New York during the fall of the present year and following years. "The association is raising a fund of $2,000,000 to bear the cost of constructing and establishing the first colony. This is the best solution of the Negro problem." A list of subscribers to the fund headed by Garvey gives a total of $4,086.20 already in. Dr. John Surgery DENY Now Loc 1102 9th STREET, N.W. Franklin Former patients 2143 L Street, N.W.

Ward was hanged at dawn today at the State Prison here for the murder of Ted Grosh, Arizona University student. Ward was convicted of one of the most brutal murders ever perpetuated in the State. Grosh was killed on December 26, while riding in an automobile with Miss Maxine McNelly. Ward stopped their car, stepped on the running board and fired a bullet into the head of Grosh, killing him instantly. He then forced Miss McNelly from the car and to accompany him to an abandoned mining tunnel, where he attacked her and fired two shots into her body, leaving her for dead. She eventually recovered and was a witness against Ward. After his conviction and confinement here Ward tried to gain his freedom by attempting to kidnap and hold in his cell two women missionaries who were calling on him. One of the women sustained severe injuries as he attempted to force her into his cell, there to be held until he was promised his freedom. Fellow convicts, attracted by the screams of the women, rushed to their rescue and were prevented from killing Ward only by the intervention of R. B. Sims, Superintendent. Ward was confined in the prison hospital for several days following the beating by the convicts. Blame for his criminal career was laid by Ward on the white race, which he said, burned in his memory a hatred for Caucasians when he witnessed the burning at the stake of six Negroes by a mob in Paris, Texas, several years ago. Ward spent his last days in a solitary cell and these were marked by his religious devotion. He read for hours daily from the Bible. Mr. John W. Ghee Entertained Mr. John W. Ghee, president of the B. Y. P. U. of the Vermont Avenue Baptist Church, was very pleasantly surprised last Monday night at his residence, 1609 Sixth Street Northwest, by the executive board of the union. Mr. Ghee and just returned from the B. Y. P. U. and Sunday. School Convention, which met at Cleveland, Ohio, and says the sessions were splendid. He will at an early date give a complete report.

THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE SATURDAY, JUNE 28, 1924 Press Comment on Republican Convention The Freeman or Indianapolis says: "The Republican national convention is now history. Many Negro delegates were present, what for we do not know, but they were there. . . . The point is the colored delegates were ignored, as they are always ignored by the great Republican party." After telling of discrimination and denying of constitutional rights of the Negro by the party, the editor goes on: "If a Negro organization would treat him that way he would be darn quick to knife it. We wonder if he will ever learn to knife the Republican party? If he doesn't, some bright day his Republican party finding they cannot shake him off in any other way, will disfranchise him even as he is disfranchised in the South." In an editorial headed "Taint Time Yet" The Argus, of St. Louis says: "As a group, we have been held back already too long, waiting for the voice of the leaders to say, 'Come up higher.' All we have heard is 'Taint time yet.' We therefore say to the voters to go to it. The time is rope for action. Let the fellows who say 'Taint time yet' say it at their own risk." The reader will note that the statements are from colored papers of the older type, from New York to St. Louis and are quite significant of the general trend of the political mind of the thinking Negro voters in all of the states where their votes will count this fall. It is truly a hopeful sign. Now, the statement from two white papers may be of interest. The New York World, in commenting on the atsays: "With votes enough in twenty titude of The Washington Tribune or more doubtful States to turn the election to one party or the other in a close contest.

The Republican Congress, in its two last sessions simply showed that it had no sympathy whatever with us as partisans and strove to drive us out of the party by sidetracking necessary legislation sought by us, and by refusing to cone Senate for confirmation by the firm the few Negro nominations sen. President. Discontent with the party is rampant among thoughtful Negroes in all of the Northern and Western states. The unexpected and unwelcome influence which the Ku Klux Klan has demonstrated that it has developed in Republican politics, with the maintaining of Klan headquarters in Cleveland, and even demanding that its candidate for Vice-President, Senator Watson of Indiana, be nominated as President Coolidge's running mate—the thing has confused thousands of Negro voters who hate the Klan as the devil hates holy water." The Tribune of Philadelphia says "The Old Game. The band played the mob howled and the organ pealed forth the Kluxer's marching hymn of 'Onward Christian Soldiers' and another Republican national convention had gone into history. Important issues were dodged. Fences were straddled. They refused to condemn the Ku Klux Klan because they have votes. Colored delegates and big guns held their little outside pow wow. They accomplished nothing and got nowhere. . . . As a result the race will remain in its present position of outer darkness." The Pittsburgh American heads its editorial with "Honeyed Words." It says: "So far as the Cleveland convention is concerned, the colored citizens have been promised very little indeed. . . The Negro voter has ceased to listen to 'honeyed words' spoken by Negroes or white men. He is demanding that all complimentary phrases be translated into worthwhile deeds. He realizes that a party that has nothing but honeyed promises to make is not the party to support. . . The Democrats are attracting thousands of Negro voters in New York State and elsewhere. In the meantime the G.O.P. continues to hand out 'Honeyed Words.'" SUNDAY—MONDAY—TUESDAY Supper Show—Monday 6 P.M.

At their request officers were sent to their home and assisted them in digging up thousands of small coins reaching $3,982. The money filled two large flour sacks and several smaller sacks. At the suggestion of the officers they deposited the money in a bank. They have been servants in prominent families for years and the money extending over a period of forty years. No one of their acquaintances had ever suspected that they had saved any money. Klan and lynching mobs "Almost to an individual here (in Washington), Negro men and women are severely criticising Senator James E. Watson, for his intimacy with the Ku Klux Klan leaders of his State. They had looked upon him as a friend but they are after his political scalp now. Indiana Negro will be urged to vote the Democratic ticket or remain away from the polls on election day. Republican workers are concerned over the threatened revolt of large groups of independent Negroes; they fear the results in pivotal States." The Baltimore Sun has a long editorial on, "Will the Colored Legions Revolt?" It says: "Clearly the Republican management at Cleveland inflicted a deep wound on these faithful hearts, and they are protesting with a bitterness that argues ill for Negro Republican solidarity on election day. . . . But in anything like a close contest they hold the balance of power in so many States essential to Republican success that it is not impossible the missing Ku Klux Klan plank may prove, like the sunken run at Waterloo, the deciding cause of a great political disaster."

But for the inaction of Secretary of War Weeks and his aide Col. Sherrill, the colored people of Washington would have a decent place for a bathing beach. It was reported that in one day more than 9,000 persons took advantage of the present beach on tidal basin, built and maintained by public funds for the public, but defying Negroes to bathe therein. If the present beach is such a great asset to the Capital City why did Secretary Weeks, permit the $25,000 appropriated for additional beach facilities to revert to the treasury without an honest attempt to use the money for the purpose it was appropriated? WATER UNDER THE MASONIC TEMPLE Under the Masonic Temple, which was begun two years ago, at the corner of 10th and U Streets, northwest, there is a basement extending under the whole building. Since last fall this basement has been from a fourth to more than one half full of water. This water has become stagnant and an excellent breeding pool for mosquitoes, which endangers the health and life of the people living near that corner. Why is it that Grand Master Ford, of the Masons of the District, will not have that water pumped out, if the sewers are too high there to carry it off? Will not that standing water also injure the basement of the building as well as endanger the health of the community? Public welfare, if not the welfare of the building, demands not only the draining of this basement but the fixing of it so that water will not gather therein. RACIAL CONSCIOUSNESS vs. PARTY LOYALTY According to a press dispatch from New York, it was announced that the Democrats of Chicago, would run a Negro for Congress in the first Congressional District of Illinois, now represented by Martin B. Madden. If this be true, it is a master stroke of the Democrats. More than seventy-five per cent of the population of this district is colored. They are supposed to be loyal to the Republican party. One Negro leader is reported as saying that Martin B. Madden could have the nomination and election from that district as long as he wanted it. The Democrats realize that they would lose the district at any rate, if they were to run a white man against Madden. Hence in order to possibly turn the colored voters from the Republican party in this district and give the Negro recognition for his vote all over the State, they will nominate Earl B. Dickerson, assistant corporation counsel of the city of Chicago. The question naturally arises will the Negroes of the First Congressional District of Illinois place race pride or racial consciousness above Republican loyalty? In the person of Mr. Dickerson they will have the first opportunity in more than a score of years, to be represented in the Congress of the United States. Not only will it be an honor to the Negroes of Chicago, but an honor to more than 12,000,000 Negroes of this country, to have a man of the race elected this fall to the 69th Congress. If Mr. Dickerson runs this fall, every Negro voter in Chicago's first district should be early to the polls and cast a good solid vote for him as their representative and win a victory that will be nation wide.

Adams League of Music Lovers to Meet The National League of Music Lovers Clubs, formerly the National Federation of Music Students Clubs, will hold their next meeting at the Y. W. C. A., Rhode Island Avenue and Ninth Street, Northwest, this Saturday evening, June 28th, at 8 o'clock sharp. Members of the Nathaniel Dett, Roland Hayes, Mozart and the former Bach and Adams Clubs, especially the officers are urgently requested to attend this meeting when a special election shall be held. This organization is now open to all musicians, choirs, music clubs, orchestral performers and others who are interested in musical advancement locally in order to make it a clearing house of musical opinion. Music teachers are cordially invited to attend and join the league. Among leaders of this movement are Rev. G. A. Fisher, rector of St. Monica's Episcopal church, Miss Run B. Waters of Anacostia, Mr. Charles Myers of Howard University, Miss Verdie Mae Jefferson, Miss Marion Sabbs, Mrs. Rosella Molson, Miss Nira Wright, Miss Emma Washington, Mr. and Mrs. William Williams, Miss Altenia Queen, Mrs. Leona K.

Susanna Swann's Letter to "Children's Page" The "Children's Page" of last weeks' Tribune contained a letter from Susanna S. Swann (16) commenting on "Roland Hayes' Voice Re-recorded." The letter is interesting from several angles; first, the musical interest manifested; second, the quest for information shown; third, the pointed queries propounded. We venture to answer Miss Swann's letter in part where she states: "But with all of Mr. Hayes' ability he is listed as singing four Negro spirituals. . . While I admire our spirituals I would like to hear some of our artists singing other classics on records. All that we hear are blues, jazzes, spirituals and comics." First: the young lady makes the mistake of classifying the spiritual with that of blues, jazz and comics, which are no more related in theme and essence than are ballads and arias, differing not only in text but as well in character of treatment of the theme. In this connection would add that a Negro spiritual possesses the same element of greatness in its characteristic racial trend as do the Hungarian airs, the Scotch ditty or the Irish dialect song and we have no less reason to shame our own racial melodies wrung from the soul, than have other races. Remember, John McCormick won his fame singing Irish ballads and Galli-curci, the greatest singer in the world today often closes her program with "Swanee River," though not a spiritual it just the same is a Negro dialect melody living on through the ages. "Deep River" a Negro spiritual, is a favorite of the artists. Secondly: Hayes, Cole-Talbert, Antoinette Garnes and others have recorded classic songs and they may be had if desired. Why they are not numerous is the fault of the Negro race itself more than other reasons as we purchase more "blues" and "jazz" records than all other races combined possibly, seldom if ever requesting better race records. The "Adams Music House" (pardon reference) now has in stock several classic records of Mme. Florence Cole-Talbert entitled "Swiss Echo Song" and "II Bacio" and despite advertising they are passed over for ordinary "blues" records by inferior talent. Mme. Barnes' record "Ah, Fors 'E Lui" and "Caro Nome" (double face) are not even mentioned by colored patrons. Hayes has several excellent classic records and how many purchase or even desire them in preference to foolish jazz stuff in the home? Why we pass a certain house frequently and all we ever hear through the windows of that house is jazz and riot aplenty and that is typical of a majority of Negro homes. Pray tell us when shall colored people learn to appreciate race talent of merit on the record? Lord knows we don't know so Susanna, you had better write another letter to the "Children's Page" on this particular point! We commend the young lady on her bright little letter and hope it may encourage other to write more interesting letters. Second Baptist Choir Gets New Director Mr. Scott Mayo, former director of St. Luke's Choir and at Miner Normal SATURDAY, JUNE 28, 1924 FORUM on A. Adams Community Center a few years ago has assumed the leadership of Second Baptist church choir. Several persons have unsuccessfully served this church as choirister. But it is hoped that the director-elect may find it possible to survive where others have failed due to the fact that the officers of said church have placed full authority in his hand as such, although they are years behind in the act which was inevitable the way things have been allowed to smother there. That's a great old church with a great preacher and pastor in Rev. Holloman but they certainly need to move "choir disturbers" and build up a great choir. Dr. Mayo has our best wishes as well as the choir and church. FROG LEAPS INTO BOAT, BOY LEAPS OUT AND IS DROWNED Rome, Ga., June 28 (P. N.

ABYSSINIA By Gladys D. Wheeler, 14 Abyssinia corresponds in the main with ancient Ethiopia. Its bounda- ries, formerly remote and vague, have been so curtailed that it is now shut off from the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden by the Italian dependency of Eritrea, by the French Somali Coast and by British Somali Land. ‘The European powers have been confirmed in their claims of posses- sion of these territories by treaties made at various times with Menelik, the Abyssinian emperor. The claim of Abyssinia to extend as far southward as the second degree north df the equator was regulated by treaty with Great Britain in Decem- ber, 1907, But the internal integrity. and independence of the empire have been maintained, notably’ by the crushing defeat inflicted ‘on the ‘Ital- ian army at Adowa by the forces of Menelik. The Abyssinians were converted in the fourth century and are regarded as a branch of eastern Christiandom, Their sovereign claims descent from Solomon. The area is estimated as 210,000 square miles and the population as 10,000,000.

She took it, only to re-appear a few minutes ‘later. “So sorry to trouble you again,’ she said, “but could you let me have another glass of water?” “Delighted!” said the gallant man- ager, as he handed her another ful glass.

MADDEN Believes Speelman H for Present Politi His Cong Efforts to avert the dismissal of the forty-three colored employees in the office of the Register of the Treasury, who have been notified that their services will no longer be needed after June 30 next, have proved futile so far. Madden Incensed Influence is being exerted, however, to have that number of white clerks transferred from that office to some other bureau or department of the government and the colored clerks retained in their present employment. The near impossibility of securing appointments of colored persons in the departments make this necessary. Representative Martin B. Madden of Illinois, has been drawn into the fight. Harley V. Speelman, the Register, charged that Mr. Madden was responsible for the reduction of the appropriation for this work by the sum of $280,000 which made it necessary to reduce the force. This has resulted in the constituents of Representative Madden, who live in the "black belt" of Chicago, deciding to put a colored Democratic candidate in the field against him. According to press reports, this candidate is Earl B. Dickerson, assistant corporation counsel of Chicago. He is a graduate of the University of Illinois and the University of Chicago. His candidacy has the approval of George E. Brennan, Democratic boss of Illinois. Mr. Madden has become incensed with the Register, whom he blames for this trouble brewing in his district, and it is very probable that Spellman will be called into account. In the meantime, Representative Madden is helping in the fight to have these colored clerks retained in order to save himself. Outlook Discouraging Many of these employees, whose services will be discontinued, are on the verge of destitution. Some of them are mothers. One woman has two small girls who are solely dependent upon her for maintenance. The outlook for re-employment is discouraging. While a large majority of the 246 white clerks, who will likewise end their services in the office of the Register, have already been given employment in the bonus bureau of the War Department, the colored clerks are not wanted. The chief clerk at the Register's Office stated that all of the colored clerks have been recommended for appointment in the bonus bureau of the War Department. The Adjutant General's office, which has this work in charge, informs them that they have already obtained all the efficient The Home of G Make This Your He FOR PASSENGER CARS— FOR TRUCKS—Both solid and pncr Mid. Washington The Washington Tribune clerks from the Register's office. Appointments are still being made, but no colored persons are being taken on. Two instances of gross discrimination have come to light in the past few days. Two colored persons were certified for appointment by the Civil Service Commission and ordered to report for duty. They were advised that they were not needed. The fight will very probably be taken to the White House and the President fully advised of the segregation and discrimination which has existed in the office of the Register of the Treasury. The direct charge will be made that Mr. Speelman is a Democrat and is unfit temperamentally to fill this office, which has been so ably filled by such men as the late B. K. Bruce, Judson W. Lyons and W. T. Vernon. CHILDREN'S TEMPORARY HOME CADETS DRILL At the Children's Temporary Home on the beautiful heights of Anacostia there took place on Saturday afternoon, June 14th, one of the most interesting and inspiring events that has ever occurred in the history of this institution, now over twenty-five years old. It was the occasion of the "Battalion Parade" which took place on the recreation field, Saturday afternoon at three o'clock. After the "Battalion Parade" which was most creditable in every respect there was the awarding of commissions by Mr. Leon Perry, superintendent of Blue Plains Industrial School The commissioned officers were as follows: Staff: Nathaniel Dade, Major; Erskine Boston, Adjutant. Company A: Clinton Lindsay, Captain; James Goodman, First Lieutenant; John Jones, Second Lieutenant. Company B: Oliver Diggs, Captain; Lewis Harris, First Lieutenant; William Richardson, Second Lieutenant. Competition between the two companies was the next of the field events. The exhibition by the prize squad was commanded by former Sargent Lewis Harris, now Lieutenant Harris. The presentation of badges to the prize squad was made by Mrs. Dwight Holmes and Mrs. Perry, both of the Board of Children's Guardians. The badge to the best sargeant—Thomas Washington—was presented by the superintendent Miss Cook. The drill closed with the awarding of badges, to the winning "Company B" by Prof. George W.

Delegates to have Voice In Big National Educational Con- (By Ike Murray) On June 30, it is estimated between 20 to 30 thousand teachers from over the country will be in the city to attend the 62nd annual convention of the National Education Association which will convene in the Central High School Auditorium. Many of the delegates are already here and with trains arriving hourly at the Union Station bringing in others from most every section in the states. There are two local assemblies in the District of Columbia one being known as the Columbia Educational Association having for its membership teachers and officers identified with divisions 10-13. This organization under the careful supervision of Mr. M. Grant Lucas, its progressive president, has completed every detail, that assures perfect comfort in the way of entertainment for the out-of-town delegates. For the first time in the history of the National Association, the C. E. Dwight Holmes and Mrs. Perry of the Board of Children's Guardians, Mr. Herndon Jones, principal of the school, Miss Cornish and Mr. L. R. Evans, assistants, Mrs. Cornish, Miss R. B.

Imogen Howard of Philadelphia, scores of parents, other relatives and friends. Great credit is due Mr. E. K. Foster long connected with the Children's Temporary Home and Mr. L. R. Evans, previously mentioned as one of the faithful teachers, for the training of the boys for this event. The founder and superintendent Miss S. B. Cook, the assistant superintendent, Mr. A. P. Cook, Miss F. E. Cook and the corps of able assistants deserve great commendation. PEOPLES CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH At the Peoples Congregational Church, Sunday night, June 28, Rev R. W. Brooks will speak from the subject, "What do men live by?" Come and hear this suggestive sermon. Special music by choir. All are welcome. KLAN AIDS NEGRO CHURCH RELAN AIDS NEGRO CHURCH Trenton, N. J., June 26 (P. N. S.)—Alarm and indignation which spread through the congregaton of St. Phillips Baptist Church, a Negro house of worship at Broad Street Park last night, when a delegation of Klansmen entered in the course of the service, changed to astonishment when one of the intruding band, announcing himself as "Mr. Hobson, Kleagle of Mercer county," said the county Klan had donated $50.00 towards the church's building fund. In an address to the congregation, this man denied the Klan was antagonistic to Negroes. He said "We ask you to accept this contribution to encourage Protestant Christianity among Negroes." At Randall Junior High School Thursday evening a reception in honor of principal G. Smith Wormley and his corps of teachers was given by the neighborhod community circle, comprised of various groups representing the playgrounds, the Parent Teacher Association, the citizens' association and community center. Arrangements were perfected by Miss Lola LeBrandt and Mr. George Smallwood of the Cardozo grounds. The welcome address was made by Reverend P. A. Scott and responded to by principal Wormley. Dr. Creed W. Childs, former member of the board of education, spoke on the significance of the occasion in the Randall community. He was followed by Reverend Aquilla Sayles, a former pupil of Eliza G. Randall in the early years of the community school life, who contrasted the work of former days with the present junior high A. will have delegates, who will help shape the policies of the 700,000 teachers throughout the nation. These delegates were elected by the teachers through popular ballot in a most methodical scrutinizing manner. They are Mr. G. C. Wilkinson, assistant superintendent of schools in divisions 10-13; Miss E. F. G. Merritt, directress of primary instruction in divisions 10-13; Mr. M. Grant Lucas, president of the C. E. A. and Miss Rosa Stokes Netherland, vice-president of the C. E. A. Those chosen to serve as alternates were: Mr. E. A. Clark, principal of the Miner Normal School; Miss Corinne Martin, directress of permanship in divisions 10-13; Mr. G.
