Bar Klansmen From Jury First in Local Circulation. Bar LAWYERS OBJECT TO MEMBERS OF K.K.K. ON JURY Fairness Challenged in Case With Colored Client and Jewish Lawyers Klan membership played an important part in the selection of a jury for the trial of Ernest A. Brown, William Ludley, Lloyd Monroe and Joseph P. Slaughter on a charge of murder in the first degree for the alleged killing of Policeman John W. Purcell last October. Klan No Bar Chief Justice McCoy, who is presiding, ruled Tuesday that former members of the Ku Klux Klan are eligible to sit as jurors in a case in which colored persons are on trial. An exception to his ruling was noted by the defense attorneys. The question arose for the second time when Edward D. Talbert, 1918 18th Street, Northwest, was under examination. This question had come up previously and an active member of the Klan had been excluded from the jury. "Are you a member of any organization which discriminates against Catholics, Jews, and Negroes?" asked T. Morris Wampler, one of the attorneys for the defense, who is himself a Jew. "Not now," answered the panel man. He was then asked whether or not he ever belonged to such organization. He refused to answer. "Were you ever a member of an organization known as the Ku Klux Klan?" asked Attorney Foster Wood of counsel for the defense. The panel man again refused to answer. Justice McCoy first ruled that the prospective juror need not answer these questions. But after a short argument by Attorney Wood he changed his ruling, declaring that "if anybody had belonged to such an organization, the defendants might suppose he could not have got over any prejudice he entertained." The talesman then admitted that at one time he was a member of the Ku Klux Klan. He was challenged for cause because of such membership. Judge McCoy over-ruled the challenge and an exception to the ruling was noted by the attorneys for the defense. The four men went on trial last Monday morning. The panel was exhausted Monday afternoon and the case was continued until Wednesday morning in order that additional venirem might be summoned. The Klansman was later put off the jury by a peremptory challenge by defense attorneys. The selection of jurymen was continued Wednesday and Thursday. When court adjourned Thursday afternoon the jury had not been completed. Third Degree Difficulty in the selection a jury was encountered because some of the panel men had conscientious serviles against capital punishment. Others were unwilling to return a verdict of murder in the first degree, which carries with it the death penalty, on circumstantial evidence, upon which the prosecution indicated it would partly rely. Some of the questions put to the panel men point to a vigorous fight by attorneys for the defense to prevent the prosecution from introducing as evidence a confession alleged to have been made by the defendants. It is indicated that the defense will charge that these confessions were obtained by "third degree" methods and that the defendants were brutally assaluted by the police in order to force confessions from them. Policeman Purcell was fatally shot (Continued on page 3) The Washington Tribune THE CONGRESSIONAL LIBRARY, FIRST ST., S. E. The Published Weekly Mrs. Boyd's Estate Valued at $21,000 Letters of administration on the estate of the late Mrs. Cordelia Syphax Boyd have been granted by the probate court to her daughter, Mrs. Edna Boyd Gary. Mrs. Boyd, the victim of a fourth of July automobile accident, died intestate. Her daughter, Mrs. Gary, is her sole surviving heir at law. The estate is valued at approximately $22,000. The total amount of indebtedness of the deceased, according to the petition for letters of administration, is less than $900. The estate consists of the premises at 208 S Street, Northwest, valued at about $12,000, of which Mrs. Boyd was the owner in joint tenancy with her daughter, Mrs. Gary; $7,000 in cash on deposit in a local bank; an equity of $1,200 in a note of $3,600 secured by a deed of trust on the Whitelaw Hotel bearing interest at 6 per cent and payable in 1925; a cash deposit of $200 made as part payment by Mrs. Boyd on the purchase price of 1505 Swann Street, Northwest, and household furniture. The approximate total valuation of her personal property is $9,900. The petition for letters of administration was filed on July 11, by Attorney R. R. Horner for Mrs. Gary. Traffic Officer Asked for at Dean Ave. (By Ike Murray) At Dean Avenue and Forty-eighth Street, Northeast, traffic congestion between the hours of eight and twelve in the evening is so heavy that the public at times is completely denied the privilege of crossing at this intersection and those on foot compelled to wait from ten to fifteen minutes before any attempt can be made to resume the journey, no matter how urgent. Traffic improvement in Washington is always important and should never be delayed, especially at points where there is no disposition to direct it. At such grade crossings, just menthe privilege of crossing at this interurban trains and local street cars are allowed to run at a speed greatly in excess of the law, accidents, often resulting in loss of life, occur, adding more victims to the already large death toll now on record in the District. Dean Avenue and Forty-eighth St. the last few years has been the scene of several fatal mishaps, because of the utter disregard on part of motormen and automobilists to observe proper precaution in making the crossing. Dean Avenue at this juncture—somewhat bewildering—has a snake like bend, rendering the course extremely dangerous for motorists at night on their way to the Suburban Gardens or other resorts in the line of travel. W. B. and A. cars, entering the District, seldom check up and at the rate of twenty-five to thirty miles an hour, dash through this section, not withstanding, between 8,000 and 10,000 automobiles are the possible victims of this sheer recklessness, should anything deadly take place. It is doubtful whether the establishment of a fire stop here would be a strong enough rule to secure better life protection or minimize the chances of collisions between the electric cars and auto machines; surely, something of a more drastic power seems necessary. The appearance of a traffic officer at this crossing between the hours of 8 and 12 each night, while the roads are crowded with pleasure seekers, would very likely regulate the traffic and bring to account those who wink at the law and have no respect for the ethics of discretion. --- WASHINGTON, D. C. SATURDAY, JULY 19, 1924 Race Migration Discussed by Dr. Haynes Race Migration Discussed by Dr. Haynes Toronto, Canada—Declaring that in a general way the movement of Negroes from the South to the North and back, since 1870 is only one phase of the migrations of populations from one section of America to another, and from Europe to America, that it represents the last act in the historical development of interracial problems, of interest to the entire country, and that such restlessness is one of the signs of aspiration natural to the Negro, Dr. George E. Haynes, secretary of the commission on the Church and Race Relations of the Federal Council of Churches, in a speech before delegates to the National Conference on Social Work here, pointed out that effects of migration had been in the vast majority of cases beneficial. Various reasons given by many students for the Negro leaving the South were touched upon, economic, social and personal. Evil effects of migration were shown to have grown out of the Negro worker naturally falling into the unskilled and more poorly paid work and to the effort in some parts to segregate him. Segregation, according to Mr. Haynes' studies, in Northern communities has been the bane of the Negro. There is no truth to the fearful charge that the urban rates in western cities has increased out of respect to the influx of migrants, the most reliable statistics showing that while the Negro death rate is still high, too high, there has been a gradual decrease since 1910. The Negro community in the North although considerably segregated, has advantages, Negroes believe, over their former localities in the South, such as: theatres for amusement; public libraries, parks, playgrounds, museums and non-"lim Crowed" street cars. Negroes are taking part more and more in the civic and political affairs of the community. In large measure newspapers, especially Negro newspapers, are being read as never before. Negro newspapers and magazines with the largest circulation are published in Chicago and New York. The headquarters of nearly every one of the Negro betterment organizations are now in Northern cities and many of the general offices of the Negro churches have moved North. Negro small business enterprises are increasing rapidly. A study of "The Negro at Work in New York, in 1910," before the present migration, lists about 475 enterprises; in 1921 a similar survey showed at least 584 such business enterprises in the Harlem district alone, a larger number than in the three Negro neighborhoods of all Manhattan in 1912. LaFollette To Discuss Issues Senator Robert M. La Follette, independent candidate for President of the United States, will give a full and frank expression of his views on every important question in which Negroes are particularly interested, as the campaign develops, Robert M. La Follette, Jr., stated today to a Tribune reporter. At present the Senator is giving his attention to the selection of a candidate for Vice-President. When this matter is disposed of, his campaign plans will be mapped out. In August he will begin an active campaign. There will be no discussion of any issues now: The Senator seeks to avoid reaching the peak of his campaign too early in the game. He recalls the election of 1896 when William Jenpings Bryan began a vigorous campaign too soon and thereby defeated his chances of a victory on election day. Race Represented on Notification Committee The formal notification of President Coolidge of his nomination by the Republican national convention, which met in Cleveland on June 12, will take place on Thursday, August 14. The original date was July 24, but the death of Calvin Coolidge, Jr., caused an indefinite postponement. President Coolidge yesterday notified Chairman Butler that he had selected August 14 for the ceremonies. The notification will be held in Continental Memorial hall at 8 o'clock in the evening. Admission to the hall, which has a seating capacity of only 2,000, will be by card. Frank W. Mondell of Wyoming, member of the War Finance Corporation, who was the permanent chairman of the convention, will make the notification speech. There are three colored members of the notification committee. They are Aaron E. Malone of St. Louis, Mo., Dr. S. D. Redmond of Jackson, Miss., and John H. Goodwin of Columbia, S.C. The notification of General Charles G. Dawes of his nomination for Vice-President of the United States is set for August 19 at Evanston, Ill. Democrats to Wage Active Campaign The general disposition at the headquarters of the Democratic party is to wage an intensive campaign all along the line and appeal to every element of the electorate. It is noted that there has been a strong tendency among colored voters toward the Democratic party, especially in the last congressional campaign and in recent municipal elections, and a strong appeal will be directed to them in the national campaign this year. John W. Davis, the Democratic nominee for President of the United States, will stress the question of liberalism in his speaking campaign, and that is expected to influence the colored voter toward the Democratic party. The Republican party will be bitterly arraigned on the klan question. The Democrats plan to emphasize the antiklan plank in their platform and point to the side-stepping of that issue in the Republican platform. Liberalism, carrying with it necessarily a certain amount of independence—a breaking away from reactionary interests, old customs and methods—is believed by Democratic leaders here to offer inducements to the colored voter for the reason that the Republican party has too long regarded him as a political chattel. Only thru liberal policies and a measure of independence can the colored voter be freed from this political servitude and become a real influence in politics and the affairs of government. SIX PASS BOARD OF PHARMACY EXAMINATION Reports from the recent examination for admission to the board of pharmacy in the District of Columbia show that out of 31, taking the examination, only six were successful in passing. Of this six, three were colored. Of the total number who took the examination, twelve were colored. Out of the three colored who passed two were Howard graduates and one was a graduate of the Washington School of Pharmacy. The successful students were Leroy Tolliver, William C. Davis and W. E. Johnson. HOWARD UNIVERSITY R. O. T. C. BOYS DISCRIMINATED AGAINST BY OFFICERS AT CAMP MEADE VIRGINIA BEAUTY KILLED HERE V DESPONDENT MAN KILLS SCHOOL GIRL WIFE T COMMITS DESPONDENT MAN KILLS SCHOOL GIRL WIFE THEN COMMITS SUICIDE Grieved because his wife's love for him had grown cold and her refusal to live with him, although she desired his support, is believed, by the local authorities to have been the cause of William H. Hill, age 42 of 1809 4th Street, N.W., shooting his wife, Mrs Marzelia Rooks Hill, age 23, 126 Seaton Street, last Monday night about 12:30 oclock, near the corner of Seaton and Second Streets, northwest. The tragedy had no eye witness and no survivals, therefore the real cause of it may never be known. Only two shots were fired by Hill. The first one entered his wife's temple near the right eye, causing death within a few minutes afterwards, the second shot, Hill fired into his own brain; the bullet entered the middle of the forehead, coming out the top, after penetrating the brain. He died instantly. On hearing the shots ring out hundreds of people gathered to investigate the trouble. The first arrivals found the body of Mrs. Hill lying prostrate on the ground and that of her husband close by. Believing a spark of life remained in Mrs. Hill's body, she was rushed to Freedmen's Hospital where she was pronounced dead. The body of Mrs. Hill was removed to McGuires Undertaking parlors, while her husband's body was first carried to the morgue and later removed to Winslow's Undertaking parlors. His body was claimed by his people in Portsmouth, Va., and was shipped noon Wednesday. Mrs. Hill's brother, Mr. A. W. ERSITY R. O. T. DISCRIMINATED A OFFICERS AT TY KILLED HERE N KILLS GRL WIFE THEN COMMITS SUICIDE Rooks, of 1423 W St., N.W. claimed her body. Funeral services were held 3:30 Wednesday afternoon and the re- mains were shipped on the Norfolk boat to Portsmouth, Va., her former home. Marzelia Rooks Hill was born in Portsmouth, Va., Sept. 10, 1900. Her parents were Rufus Rooks and Theodosia Johnson Rooks. She married William H. Hill about three or four years ago in Portsmouth, Va. Hill was a cook on the Southern Railroad and was also a native of Portsmouth. Later the couple came to Washington to live. Because of Mrs. Hill's beauty and talent, she quickly made a number of friends and became very popular in the younger set. Her husband being much older, it is alleged, did not share the social ambition of his wife. Little by little they were drawn farther apart, it is claimed. Mrs. Hill entered Minor Normal School two years ago and by hard work finished this year; standing 10th in the largest class to ever graduate from this school. Because of her high standing she was practically assured of an appointment in the Public School this fall. Hoping for reconciliation, it is further alleged, Hill gave up his work on the Railroad and secured employment as Chef Cook at Harrison's Café, on Florida Avenue. Apparently all his efforts along this line failed as his wife continued to live apart from him. This is believed to have been the cause of the shooting. According to those who knew him, Hill was a very sober minded person and a hard worker. His nearest rela- Office: 920 U St., N.W. Washington's Best Advertising Medium. ury T. C. AGAINST CAMP MEADE Students Refuse to Take Part in Track Meet After Mass Meeting Because of rank discrimination which had the endorsement of Bridier-General H. B. Fiske in command of Camp Meade, and Lieutenant-Colonel O. F. Snyder, in charge of the R. O. T. C. trainees, the Howard University unit refused to take part in the Athletic Meet held at the camp Wednesday. Every other R. O. T. C. unit took part except Howard. As the track meet was part of the R. O. T. C. program, the Howard boys had to put their time on the tennis courts and baseball diamonds. Learning of this flagrant discrimination, a Tribune reporter was sent to Camp Meade, where he made a thorough investigation of the affair. About June 27th, notices were posted that there would be a track meet, Wednesday, July 16th. Each R. O. T. C. unit was to select its men for the various events. attention of the Howard University unit, they made up their list of men, and were planning to start training. Then it was brought to the attention of those in charge that, according to Southern prejudices, Howard University boys could not take part in the races with the whites. However, as the meet was part of the official R. O. T. C. program and the various prizes were furnished by the United States Government, Howard University boys could not be denied the right to compete. Realizing this, the camp officials then decided that in each event, the white boys would run their race and then the colored boys would be permitted to run. Their times would indicate in what places in the rating they should be placed. When this state of affairs became known, the Howard unit, held a mass meeting and decided that unless they were permitted to take part in the meet on an equal basis with the other units, they would not participate. Upon learning of this decision, the camp officials were pleased to agree to Howard's withdrawal. In lieu of taking part in the athletic meet, the Howard boys had to play tennis and baseball because their men had to be employed so that the report could be made out and sent to Washington. According to the military rules each hour must be accounted for and the officials could not afford to let the Howard University unit report sheet show unfilled blanks. When a Tribune reporter asked Lieutenant-Colonel O. F. Snyder, who is in charge of the R. O. T. C. units, (Continued on page 3) tion here was a cousin, Captain Gibson of No. 4 Engine Company. There were no notes or anything to show that Hill had planned for this tragedy. His wife was rooming at 126 Seaton Place. She went to the theatre with one of her girl friends, Miss Velma Boone of 1907 Second Street. They parted at the corner of Rhode Island Avenue and Second Street. By the time Miss Boone arrived at her home, she heard two shots ring out. Evidently Hill was waiting for his wife on Seaton Place. That there was no argument is proved by the people who lived close by. The only noise they heard was the two pistol shots. Mrs. Hill was unemployed. Her means of support could not be learned. Her brother refused to give out any statement to the press. LOCALS AND SOCIETY PAGE TWO Mr. and Mrs. R. H.

Nashville, July 19—Completion of the first million-dollar endowment fund ever to be established at a college for Negroes was announced today by Dr. Fayette Avery McKenzie, President of Fisk University, which began its career in an army barracks in Nashville inocured by General Clinton B. Fisk in January, 1866. This fund has been made possible by matching a conditional offer of $500,000 from the General Education Board of New York. Among those contributing are the Carnegie Corporation of New York, which gave $250,000; the John F. Slater Fund of Charlottesville, Va., the J. C. Penney Foundation of New York and prominent individuals in New York, Philadelphia, Chicago, Cleveland and Boston. Anticipating the successful completion of the $1,000,000 endowment fund, the citizens of Nashville organized this spring to raise a supplementary fund of $50,000 for Fisk. This is the first time that any such sum has been contributed by any Southern City for any type of Negro education. Among the leaders in this local campaign are bankers, business men, educators and clergymen. The endowment fund, the income of which is to be awarded annually to teachers' salaries, is conspicuous recognition of the leadership which Fisk has achieved in meeting the growing need for higher education for the 11,000 Negroes of the country according to Paul D. Cravath, the internationally known lawyer of New York, who is chairman of the Board of Trustees and whose father was one of the founders of Fisk and served as its president for twenty-five years. In a letter to Dr. McKenzie, Mr. Cravath said: "We are to be congratulated on this conspicuous and generous endorsement by the great educational funds and by so many prominent individuals in the East and Middle West. For fifty years Fisk University has held before Negro youth the highest standards in collegiate training. During your administration your effective emphasis on standards, of both character and scholarship, has won for Fisk an impressive series of recognitions. The Carnegie Foundation made Fisk in 1921 one of its associates, thereby admitting the faculty to full participation in its pension scheme As a result of this recognition, Fisk was given full standing at the University of Chicago in 1922. Only this spring Columbia University has officially singled out Fisk among the Negro colleges of the South for like recognition. Now we have this financial support which carries with it the considered endorsement of many thoughtful Americans." Among the individual contributors are Julius Rosenwald, Cyrus H. McCormick, Harold H. Swift and Mrs. Emmons Blaine of Chicago; Samuel Mather and Mrs. Francis F. Prentiss of Cleveland; Miss Fanny T. Cochran and Miss Juliana Wood of Philadelphia; Joseph Lee, George Wigglesworth and Charles E. Mason of Boston, and Edward S. Harkness, George Foster Peabody, Paul D. Cravath, V. Everit Macy, Arthur Curtiss James, Dwight W. Morrow and James H. Post of New York. Samuel Sachs, of New York, a trustee, has established the Ella Sachs Plötz Memorial Professorship. Completion of the endowment fund is the first step in the development of Fisk University to meet the growing demands for the training which it offers, according to President McKenzie. "Present accommodations in dormitories and classrooms are limiting the number of students who can be served," he said today. "College attendance at Fisk has doubled during the last nine years.

HANDY EARLY DEAD The death of Mrs. Handy Early, of Gordonsville, Va., on Thursday, July 10, 1924, witnessed the loss of a faithful wife, a devoted mother and a kind neighbor. Though she had suffered intermittently for years her last illness was but a day. Her last words to the family who stood at her bedside before her parting breath were: "I am leaning on Jesus, I am depending on Him." She expired calmly as though asleep. She was born in Albemarle County, Virginia, May 11, 1853. When a child she was sweet, kind, and loving, and as she grew older her broad and sympathetic heart expanded into her life like sunshine to all of those about her. From her marriage to Nathan Early of Orange County, Virginia, she lived in the vicinity of Gordonsville and was his constant helpmeet in rearing a family of six. She had always been an affectionate mother and a devout Christian. Her cares were many and her sympaties were as broad as her MILLION DOLLAR FISK 11th and U Sts., N.W.

WILLIAM A. CONAWAY DEAD Mr. William A. Conaway, a life long resident of this city, died this week at Carson's Hospital. He was a barber at the capitol for number of years. Mr. Conaway had several sons who were well known in musical circles here and in New York. The deceased was a member of a number of fraternal organizations.

Dr. Algernon B. Jackson, Director of the School of Public Health of Howard University, Washington, D.C., delivered an address before the conference on "The Need of Health Education among Negroes." Among the interesting and important matters with reference to Negro Health Education which were called to the attention of the conference by Dr. Jackson was the suggestion of the establishment of a Foundation for Negro Health Improvement. Added interest in the problem of health education among Negroes is a result of the remarks upon this subject by Dr. Jackson at the Conference. His contention that the problem of health education is a national rather than a racial one was agreed to by many attending the Conference.

WILBERFORCE UNIVERSITY HONORS PROMINENT WOMAN Wilberforce University, Ohio-At the commencement of Wilberforce University held in June, the degree of Doctor of Divinity was conferred upon Miss Mary G. Evans, prominent minister and evangelist of the A. M. E. Church. Miss Evans is an alumnus of Wilberforce, having received her B.D. degree from there in 1914. She has since then pursued her theological studies in Union Theological Seminary and Columbia University. She is now pastor of St. John A. M. E. Church, Indianapolis, Ind., and is considered one of the most prominent evangelists in the country. She is one of the 24 trustees of Wilberforce, and a woman of rare talent. It is generally conceded that she will be one of the first women delegates to the next General Conference. In this humanitarian world about the only person left who can indulge a sharp tongue is a traffic policeman. A K.K.K. Members Obected to as Jurists (Continued from page one.) on the night of October 15, 1923. He died two days later. He and Policeman H. R. Crawford were patrolling their beat that night when they heard the sound of a garage door being broken open. They went into the alley in the rear of the Bell school, First Street and Virginia Avenue, Southwest, to investigate. Purcell flashed his light. The staccato of rapid pistol firing followed. Although Purcell fell mortally wounded, he drew his gun and fired one shot. Crawford was also wounded, but he managed to crawl to a patrol box at Second and D Streets, Southwest and sent in an alarm. An hour later the Emergency Hospital ambulance was summoned to 446 Six ond One-Half Street, Southwest. Detective Sergeants Mullen and Murphy beat the ambulance to the call. Forcing their entrance they found George Ludley lying on a couch seriously wounded. He was rushed to the hospital in the headquarter's car. When Ludley was told he was dying, he made statements that later resulted in the arrest of his brother, William Ludley, Lloyd Monroe, Ernest Brown and Joe Slaughter. According to the detectives the men were planning to take liquor out of a garage in the alley in which the shooting occurred. Thy had partially jimmied open the garage door when the officers discovered them. Elzie Jones of 425 First Street, Southwest is said to have been the intended victim of the attempted robbery. There was no liquor in his garage, however, when the officers searched it. The attorneys for the defense are Wampler and Lynch, John H. Wilson, Foster Wood, and Abnal Seigal. Howard R.O.T.C. Boys Discriminated Againist at Meade (Continued from page 1) about the segregation, Col. Snyder stated that everything was okeh, that the Howard boys could take part in the meet and stand a fair and square chance of winning the prizes. When asked what about the colored boys having to run their races by themselves, Col. Snyder replied that he was for a square deal, but sa so many of the units are from southern schools, he thought it would be best for harmony's sake, for the colored boys to run their races by themselves. By doing this, they would not offend the southern white boys. Col. Snyder took great pains to assure the reporter that he was fair and square but stated that these southern boys had not yet learned that there are no differences in the abilities of the various races. The athletic meet was not the only time the Howard boys have had to face the segregation barrier. There is a swimming pool at the camp. The hours for the various units to swim were posted in every building except the Howard boys' building. When Col. Snyder was asked about this, he stated that hours for the Howard unit had been agreed upon but the order just had not been issued as yet. (The camping period is half over.) The tennis courts have also come in for their share of discrimination. In every other building except the one occupied by the Howard University boys, hours and days for the tennis courts were issued a few days after the camp opened. After much wrangling, the colored boys were finally told they could use the tennis courts on Saturday afternoons. To appreciate this generosity, one must realize that all activities so far as regular military program is concerned, ceases at noon on Saturdays and after that hour, the students are permitted to go on pass until taps Sunday night. However, to somewhat offset the bad feeling in the Howard unit, because of the Wednesday track meet, an order was issued permitting them to play tennis on Wednesday afternoon, July 16th; the order further stated that after that day, further orders relative to Wednesdays would be issued. So it is still doubtful if this privilege will continue. Whenever the R. O. T. C. units drill in battalion formation, much time is always consumed in figuring out how the companies form, in order that the colored boys will be placed in the rear and on the extreme end. When passing the reviewing stand, the Howard boys are always farthest from the reviewers. There are forty-three students in the Howard unit. The Reserve Officers' Training Corps is composed of 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. college students, who sign up for two years' training, which if completed successfully, entitles them to commissions in the Reserve Officers' Corps. In case of war these students would be inducted into the regular army as officers. During the school term they are allowed thirty cents a day and they must take military instruction so many hours each week. Before the commisison can be obtained, the student must spend six weeks in training at a camp designated by the War Department. As Howard is close to Camp Meade, Md., this R. O. T. C. unit always goes to Camp Meade. During the six weeks of training in camp, the student is allowed seventy-cents a day, and is furnished rations and clothing. The camp opened this year Saturday, June 19th and will close Saturday, July 30th. The Howard University is one of the largest units in camp. This unit comprises the 4th Company. All told there are twenty-eight schools represented at Camp Meade this year, of this number, sixteen are southern schools, nine are northern schools and one colored. The flagrant discrimination against the Howard boys has caused much resentment both in the student ranks and among the colored citizens generally. Billited in the Howard University barracks are three young men, one from Philadelphia, and two from Washington who entered camp to receive Citizens' Military training, which is a separate and distinct class of training from the R. O. T. C. When the C. M. T. C. men arrived at Camp Meade, and the officials found these three men were colored, it created an immediate prbolem. Here were three colored men who were offering their services to Uncle Sam, but, being colored, they were different, and therefore could not get the same training as the other men who came to the camp with them. As there were only three, they would not even make the rear rank in a squad. Because there was no way of setting them off to the side, it was decided by Brigadier-General Fiske to place them with the Howard University R. O. T. C. unit. Although the R. O. T. C. training is far advanced over the first year of the C. M. T. C., these three men have been forced to make the best of it and learn just whatever they are able to catch.

Mitchell, business manager of the West Virginia Collegeate institute and secretary of the Virgin Island Committee recently appointed by President Coolidge, will be in this city this week, and will speak at the Price Memorial A.M.E. Church on Wednesday evening, July 16. The topic of his discussion will be "The Negro of America and the Isles of the Sea." Miss Margaret Robinson, aged 95, was buried Saturday morning from her late residence, 2009 Blaine Avenue. The deceased was known as the oldest living resident of the Northside and has resided in this city for the past ninety years, coming to the shore from Vineland. She was the aunt of Summy Robinson, star athlete and member of the football team while a student at the Atlantic City High School and later prominent in both amateur and profession ring circles. She is survived by several nieces in this city. Among the many prominent visitors now stopping at the shore is Nahum Daniel Brascher, president and editor-in-chief of the Associated Negro Press, of Chicago. Mr. Brascher, who is taking up his summer residence at 1006 N. Ohio avenue, is perhaps the best known colored journalist in the country and is head of the organization that supplies news for 112 colored periodicals. Miss Winifred Frye, a well-known member of the younger social set of Washington, D.C., is visiting in Atlantic City. Louis Brown, director of the orchestra at the Lincoln theatre in Washington, D.C., was listed among the prominent week-end visitors in the resort. GUESTS AT HOTEL DALE, CAPE MAY, N. J.

Write For Particulars The Tribune Sport Review Dr. Edwin B. Henderson To Head New Public School Athletic Office PAGE FOUR Th Dr. Edwin Dept. of Physical Education Created The creation of the position of director of the department of physical education in the high schools and the promotion of Dr. E. B. Henderson to fill the position marks the high point in the growth of athletics and physical education in the schools of Washington. Dr. Henderson graduated from M Street High School in 1902 and led the class of 1904 of Miner Normal School. He received his professional training in Harvard Summer School of physical education and Howard Medical School which he attended for two years. Following "Bill" Foley of Central High School in M Street High School in 1904 he has been connected with this work ever since that date. At nearly every athletic meet and at most football and basketball games he has officiated. He founded the Athletic Association of the Middle Atlantic States, organized the Public Schools Athletic League, and edited the only annual publication dealing with Colored athletes now in the Congressional Library. DR. EDWIN B. HENDERSON Dr. Henderson is considered the dean of Colored football, basketball, and track ocals, and has been on the list of approved officials in these sports longer than any other official of our group. For a number of years he worked on school and community playgrounds, conducted municipal games, and corresponded for numerous white and Colored newspapers and periodicals. Lately he graduated from the Central Chiropractic College and specialized in the treatment of athletic injuries. The salary of the director will begin at $3,200 and run to $3,700. In the department will be the following well known teachers: Mrs. Tessa Lee Connelly, Mrs. Etta Williamson, Miss Chandler, Mrs. Amos, Miss Claytor Williams, Miss J. E. Davis, Mrs. Marshall, Messrs. Pinderhughes, Miller, Contee, and Dr. Cupid. It is predicted by the officials that closer cooperation will be afforded and unified results obtained by the creation of the department head.

Nineteen points were scored by America's three colored track stars at the Olympic meet. Dehart Hubbard annexed ten points by winning the broad jump event, and Ned Gourdin garnered five by finishing second t oHubbard and Earl Johnson secured four for landing third place in the 10,000-meter cross-country run. Charley West failed to get in the games while Charles Brookins, the much-discussed "white and black" athlete, was disqualified for leaving his lane. America's Negro point-scorers performed notably. While Hubbard's winning jump will be looked upon as one of the greatest victories of the American team, the stubborn battle staged by Earl Johnson against the two greatest distance runners in the world, Nurmi and Ritola, will long be remembered. The race was run under a scorching sun and over half of the runners failed to finish. Ill luck probably robbed Hubbard of the chance to win two events when an injury forced the coach to scratch him from the hop, step and jump event. GEORGETOWN IN WINNING STREAK The Georgetown A. C. has won 16 out of their last 18 games. The Brook- and A. C. turned in the team's only defeats. The Stonewalls will face Georgetown in an effort to even up the series between the teams on Diamond No. 8, Sunday.

July 15, 1924 Dear Sports Editor: On a visit to the Lafayettes' baseball field I noticed that the refreshment concession was run by a white man. On a little investigation I learned from some of the fans( since the team men seemed not to know) that this same man has the sole privilege of selling refreshments on these diamonds. Of course there is a reason, but why is this? Why should a person of the other race have the monopoly of such a paying proposition, supported by colored people, over numerous business men of color? The public wants an explanation. Yours for the good of all, H. C.

Philadelphia, July 10—Nimp Winters added another victory to his fast growing string of Eastern Colored League games when he pitched the Hildale Club to a win over the Brooklyn Royal Giants at Hildale Park, score 5 to 1. The Hildale finger allowed but three safe blows and won under wraps when the locals bombarded Rector in the fifth inning for four runs. The Giants kicked in with some weird fielding in the fifth inning that aided the home crew to pile up their tallies.

ROYAL GIANTS HAND HILLDALE SET-BACK Eddie Douglass' Brooklyn Royal Giants, minus the redoubtable Eddie himself, scored their first win of the season over the Hildale Club. The Flatbush delegation, after aiding Hildale in their scramble pennantward by dropping four straight games to Bolden's clan came back with vengeance and literally mopped up the home crew in the Saturday afternoon battle at Hildale Park by the score, 8 to 2. Pritchett, a new left-hander pitched managed to get by without permitting the visitors to increase their total. Capt. Frank Warfield's fielding was the high light of the game for the locals, the Hildale leader accepted ten chances without the semblance of an error. Potomacs Play Harrisburg Here, July 27 OSCAR CHARLESTON, GREATEST STAR, TO MAKE BOW After an absence of more than a month, Ben Taylor will bring his hired ball players back to the American League park on Sunday, July 27, for a single game stand against the Harrisburg Giants. The latter club is now resting in the fourth place in the league standing, while the Potomacs occupy the cellar position. Harrisburg under the management of Oscar Charleston, generally regarded as the greatest Race ball player in the world, has been one of the biggest drawing cards in the league. The club is well balanced in all departments. Pring Gardner, a Washington product, is one of the club's leading pitchers. Manager Taylor will show many new faces to the local populace. Two new infielders, Finley and Jeffries, at shortstop and third base, respectively, are playing good ball. Hamilton has been shifted from shortstop to second base where his playing a bang-up game. White, a hard hitting, fast outfielder, formerly with the Bacharachs is now covering the middle garden in grand style for the locals. All in all, Manager Taylor has a greatly improved club.

NEW JERSEY JUSTICE OF THE PEACE UNDER FIRE PEACE UNDER FIRE Lawnside, N. J., July 10, (P. N. S.) —Activities of John C. Farmer, Justice of the Peace here, are being investigated by Assistant Prosecutor Verbalow and motor vehicle inspector Robie. It is said many complaints against Former have been filed by motorists with Motor Vehicle Commissioner Dill at Trenton. Inspector Robie placed the matter before Prosecutor Verbalow with the result that Squire Farmer was ordered to produce his court record. Squire Farmer is a Negro. Bears and Tigers Tied for Lead The Teddy Bears drew up to a tie for first place by defeating the LeDroit Tigers, Sunday. The St. Cyprians are right on the heels of the above pair, while the Buffaloes are certain to give plenty of trouble in the future. The Deanwood club suffered heavily through the injury to its star shortstop, Rufus Barbour. Young Barbour was severely injured in an automobile accident recently, and will be out of the game for the balance of the season. He was one of the brightest prospects in the league and left a gap in the Deanwood infield that will be hard to fill. Umpire Richardson was fined $1.00 by acting president Hayes Jones for failure to put in his appearance at a recent game. Austin Guy has been added to the league umpire staff. Two members of the LeDroit Tigers are on the hospital list. Sherman Baylor will be given a rest to have his eyes treated. Kenner was painfully spiked Sunday by Muley Stewart when the latter slid into second. Martin Lewis is in the city and is a welcome addition to the Tigers' catching staff. The outfielding of Muley Stewart of the Teddy Bears was the outstanding feature of the twin-bill between the Bears and Tigers. Stewart is regarded by many as the leading league gardener. He is a brilliant fielder as well as good hitter and smart man on the bases.

THEATRICAL NEWS "THE BEDROOM WINDOW" AT THE REPUBLIC "The Bedroom Window" a William de Mille Paramount picture will be the feature attraction at the Republic on Sunday, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, July 20, 21, 22 and 23. It has a star cast including May McAvoy, Malcolm MacGregor, Ricardo Cortez, Robert Edeson, George Fawcett and Ethel Wales. De Mille has done the unusual in "The Bedroom Window." He keeps the audience in the dark about the solution of a murder problem until the very end of the picture. The vaudeville portion of the bill consists of a comedy, song and dance numbers by Eleanor Wilson, Teepose (Miss Foster) and company of girls. Added short film subjects will also be shown. Harry Carey in his latest picture, "The Lightning Rider" will be shown on Thursday, Friday and Saturday, July 24, 25 and 26. Carey plays the part of the "Black Mask" in a story of the Mexican border. All live in fear of the "Black Mask" until he is conquered by the woman he loves. New song and dance numbers will be featured by Eleanor Wilson, Teepose (Miss Foster) and Company. HOWARD PRESENTS GOOD BILL By Jay Bee The vauderville-hungry folk of Washington, despite the sultry weather of the last few days, were delectably served with one of the most sumptuous repasts ever offered from the wings of old Howard. Little George Tucker's hand-picked bill of clever laugh-producers played to commendable audiences throughout the week. "Lost in a big city," film offering, with its many crucial situations, served as a pleasing appetizer; then followed the mirth menu proper. Dainty little Baby Mack and her "moon-shine" partner, put over a clever song and dance number in great style. "Sitting in the Corner," a parody number just about got 'em. Sarah Venable of William and Walker fame and loose-jointed Joe Sandifer, who has not peeped over the footlights of Howard for about eight years, kidded and kidded until there was no more kid left in him. Sarah rendered a song number that was well received. They close with a peppy dance. Jenkins and Jenkins, man and wife, new faces in these diggins, did a screamingly funny turn. They closed with a musical dance eccentricity, which gave them an opportunity to show their skill with a harmonica and guitar. Billed as a special added attraction, the Rosetime Revue Whirlwinders, gave some mighty clever demonstrations of the terpsichore art. Easton and Stewart, billed as the craziest pair in the show business, lived up to their billing to the letter. These birds were the direct cause of convulsive laughter from their entrance to their exit with their multitudinous eccentricities. Their musical number was a riot. REVIVAL WEEK AT BROADWAY Broadway puts on big revival week. The entire week will be devoted to the playing of big productions of the past. This will give the movie fans an opportunity to again see their favorite stars and plays. The pictures have been selected from the best ever produced in pictures. They are of the type that one may see again with the same enjoyment of the first viewing. Among them are "Little Old New York," "Quincy Adams Sawyer," Rex Ingram's "Turn to the Right," "Enemies of Women" and "Where are My Children?" and a picture with an entire colored cast, "A Modern Cain." WILEY COLLEGE Marshall, Tex.—Wiley University takes another step toward the attainment of that goal set for it by the Board of Education for Negroes of the Methodist Episcopal Church. Last year the kindergarten classes were dropped; this next session the grammar school will be discontinued and each year hereafter one grade will be cut from the high school until only the college courses remain. Two or three schools in the system have been designated for development into institutions offering nothing but courses above high school; and Wiley is one of them. The educational directors who have the destines of these institutions in hand feel that there is a sufficient number of second class and Junior colleges to amply care for the secondary education of the race and that what is now desirable is a few highly developed institutions with clean, wholesome, Christian environment to meet the demands for training in leadership. It is fortunate for Texas Negroes that Wiley has been chosen as one of the schools for this larger purpose; nor has it been altogether without reason: Wiley is strategically located so as conveniently to serve not only Texas, but Alabama, Oklahoma, Louisiana and Mississippi; it has given continued evidence of its ever widen- A Circulation that is Maintained byPopularity THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE has never had a circulation campaign giving prizes as inducements for subscribers. But by giving the Washington public CONSTRUCTIVE NEWS week in and week out, has maintained undisputed leadership in local circulation. THE TRIBUNE HAS NO STALE READERS An outstanding feature of The Tribune's leadership is the fact that 90 per cent of its readers buy their papers by the week or month. This unusual fact alone testifies to the sterling qualities of The Tribune as these readers must be attracted each week by the sheer interest of this paper's news and features. NEWS POLICY RECEIVES GREAT CARE The fact that The Tribune is quoted more widely by the leading Metropolitan dailies than any other race journal, not only speaks well for the quality and forcefulness of these articles, but it shows the time, care and thought that is given to the news policy of this great weekly.

During the Civil War, the Republican and the North became so President, who happened to be free the slaves if the Southern Union and stop the terrible slave They refused. Forced by necessity Republican President issued a pro-in the States in rebellion. Since then the Republicans haveduce the Negro to vote for that position and grateful for even small of unpaid toil, and the most inhumely be indulged in by a supposed blindly followed the Republicans ago he began to think on his poor he had been voting for the Republic had received precious little in rediscontent began to creep into the Four years ago the Negro began for himself. Since then he is Republican party. As a result counting and is more determined to play the game of real independence him the best service. And why should he not do so? a one party man? The Republican majority of 7,000,000 in 1920, the need the Negro any more and his intention of ignoring him. Realizing the intention of the Negro has experimented in political years and found that he had suffered to defeat the Representative at Jersey he threw his vote against Senator remained at home.

So far, for the Negro in the past two years in the past sixteen years. If La Follette forms a third policies, the Negro will have even La Follette. All of the Negroes are not good nor will all of them switch to La But the Negro was born in this schools of this country—such as white man's Bible, and Christian he reads the white man's daily serious magazines along with any stant touch with advancement, his political freedom as the white measures, and the party that country the best service? He party, now. On the other hand to the Negro for fifty years of THE NEGRO AND POLITICAL FREEDOM Freedom like religious freedom, is an inalienable guaranteed by the Constitution and its aim of one of the fundamental principles of our society. Every man and woman, who is a citizen, of age, is a legal voter in this country, and he or her ballot in every or any State of the United States. The exercising of the privilege. The Civil War, the Republican party happened, the North became so hard pressed that the who happened to be Abraham Lincoln, the lives if the Southern States would not rest, the terrible slaughter and ravages it led. Forced by necessity to obtain fresh President issued a proclamation freeing and resisting rebellion. On the Republicans have harped on that in the Negro to vote for that party. Being of a kindateful for even small favors, forgetting the civil, and the most inhuman treatment that is alleged in by a supposed Christian nation, weaved the Republicans for fifty years. Above, to think on his political condition and to voting for the Republicans for lo these mankind precious little in return for his loyalty to began to creep into the rank and file. Years ago the Negro began some real thinking itself. Since then he has found little comparty. As a result he has split his vote and is more determined this year, than the game of real independence and cast a vote on the best service. Should he not do so? Why should the New man? The Republicans were so elated 7,000,000 in 1920, that they thought the Negro any more and have certainly demonized it ignoring him. In the intention of the Republicans to ignore experimented in political freedom within the ground that he had sufficient voting power in the Representative at large and a Senator threw his vote against a Republican Senator maintained at home. In Baltimore he flirted and helped to elect a Democratic mayor. Actor in changing the administration from static. In New York City he grew tired of and tried Tammany's offers and landed a Newalderman, a member of the Civil Service, larger than any Republican President had with a number of assistant attorneys and Chicago, a Negro is running for Congress on it. Actual examples of real service and benefit years of experimenting, the Negro has gone forward he is going to vote for the men, he may be, that will really make an effort to promise. So far, the Democrats have Negro in the past two years than the Republic sixteen years. Gillette forms a third party and continues to the Negro will have everything to gain by. Negroes are not going to leave the Republic of them switch to La Follette. That is Negro was born in this country, he attends this country—such as they are—he has a Bible, and Christianity as taught by them. The white man's daily and weekly newspaper trains along with any number of books, be with advancement, then why should he be freedom as the white man does, and vote on the party that he feels will render the best service?

The exercising of that right is a personal privilege. During the Civil War, the Republican party happened to be in power and the North became so hard pressed that the Republican President, who happened to be Abraham Lincoln, threatened to free the slaves if the Southern States would not return to the Union and stop the terrible slaughter and ravages of the war. They refused. Forced by necessity to obtain fresh troops, the Republican President issued a proclamation freeing all the slaves in the States in rebellion. Since then the Republicans have harped on that incident to induce the Negro to vote for that party. Being of a kindly disposition and grateful for even small favors, forgetting the 250 years of unpaid toil, and the most inhuman treatment that could possibly be indulged in by a supposed Christian nation, the Negro blindly followed the Republicans for fifty years. About ten years ago he began to think on his political condition and finding that he had been voting for the Republicans for lo these many years but had received precious little in return for his loyalty to the party, discontent began to creep into the rank and file. Four years ago the Negro began some real thinking politically for himself. Since then he has found little comfort in the Republican party. As a result he has split his vote where splitting counted and is more determined this year, than ever before, to play the game of real independence and cast a vote that will render him the best service. And why should he not do so? Why should the Negro remain a one party man? The Republicans were so elated with their majority of 7,000,000 in 1920, that they thought they would not need the Negro any more and have certainly demonstrated their intention of ignoring him. Realizing the intention of the Republicans to ignore him, the Negro has experimented in political freedom within the last two years and found that he had sufficient voting power in Delaware to defeat the Representative at large and a Senator. In New Jersey he threw his vote against a Republican Senator and the Senator remained at home. In Baltimore he flirted with the Democrats and helped to elect a Democratic mayor. In Chicago he was a factor in changing the administration from Republican to Democratic. In New York City he grew tired of Republican promises and tried Tammany's offers and landed a Negro assemblyman, an alderman, a member of the Civil Service Commission at a salary larger than any Republican President has ever given a Negro, with a number of assistant attorneys and other positios. In Chicago, a Negro is running for Congress on the Democratic ticket. With practical examples of real service and benefit before him, after two years of experimenting, the Negro has decided that from now forward he is going to vote for the men, or the party, as the case may be, that will really make an effort to keep their pre-election promises. So far, the Democrats have done more for the Negro in the past two years than the Republicans have in the past sixteen years. If La Follette forms a third party and continues his fairplay policies, the Negro will have everything to gain by supporting La Follette. All of the Negroes are not going to leave the Republican party, nor will all of them switch to La Follette. That is not expected. But the Negro was born in this country, he attends the public schools of this country—such as they are—he has accepted the white man's Bible, and Christianity as taught by the white man; he reads the white man's daily and weekly newspapers and various magazines along with any number of books, being in constant touch with advancement, then why should he not exercise his political freedom as the white man does, and vote for the men, the measures, and the party that he feels will render him and his country the best service? He owes nothing to the Republican party, now. On the other hand, the Republican party is in debt to the Negro for fifty years of unprecedented loyalty. THE WEEK'S BEST EDITORIAL THE TIME HAS COME Whatever may be the chances for success of a progressive party at the polls next November, there is no disputing the fact that it will give the Negroes the chance of their lives to show their disapproval of the Republican and Democratic parties in their recent conventions toward the Ku Klux Klan. For a while it seemed certain that the Democrats would rise to the situation and make short work of the hooded menace, but they too failed by a few votes to take a direct stand and acted in the interest of party expediency. The milk and water palliation written in the Republican platform is an insult to the intelligence of Negro voters. We believe the time has come to institute a new and more vigorous force in American politics; a force that will not only have as its foundation the fundamental principles of American fair play, but modern ideas of human relations. The old parties are honeycomed with reaction and corruption, and are bound body and soul to forces controlled by prejudice and bigotry. The public welfare is forgotten by politicians who throw principles of righteousness to the winds wherever political expediency dictates. Our government is becoming a framework of cowardly blundering wherever the rights of minority groups are concerned and the administrative machinery is used to exploit the weak and serve the ends of crooked overlords.

THE WEEK'S BEST POLITICAL MANAGEMENT The Republican National Convention held at Cleveland gave evidence in its closing sessions that there was a division in the management of the party between the old liners, represented by the Senatorial contingent, and the more progressive element brought into control through President Coolidge's candidacy for renomination. Chairman Butler is a business man and a newcomer in the field of politics. All the astuteness which Mr Butler may have exercised in his business will now be needed in the conduct of the political campaign. So far as the Negro voters are concerned it is not so much astute management that is required as square dealing that will inspire confidence and renew faith in Republican policies. The failure on the part of the last administration, especially in the Congress, to live up to the principles of the party and to redeem the pledges made in its platform and by its candidates four years ago, weakened the faith of this class of voters THE WASHINGTON IBUNE SATURDAY, JULY 19, 1924 MUSIC FORUM By Wellington A. Adams WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THIS DEAR CITIZENS? The writer very recently made a veiled attempt to get together a few Washingtonians to discuss the advisability of organizing a "Roland W Hayes Choral Society of Washington D.C." in honor of that great tenor. The list is cosmopolitan in its cast of civilians, musicians, music teachers, choir directors, choir organists and vocalists, varied intentionally. We wanted to see if there was sufficient musical interest and unity of purpose among colored citizens to warrant organizing a choral group representative of Washington in recent years. "July 5, 1924. 'Roland W. Hayes Triumphs in Berlin, Germany.' 'Roland W. Hayes Awarded 1924 Spingarn Medal.' Dear Friend: Roland W. Hayes will visit our city during the Fall or Winter season of 1924-25. The above headlines culled from the press of recent date indicate the world wide trend of public opinion of this justly famous colored artist. Washington would honor him in the organization of a Choral Society named after the noted musician, as "The Roland W. Hayes Choral Society of Washington, D.C." for which purpose a call meeting of well known local musicians, including yourself, will be held in the office of the writer next Saturday evening at 8 o'clock to draw up preliminary plans toward said end. We therefore, invite you to be present promptly. Please inform us if the invitation is acceptable and oblige Yours very truly." The list of citizens to whom invitations were sent were Miss Edna T. Gordon, Mr. and Mrs. Boynton Dodson, Prof. J. Henry Lewis, Mrs. Josephine Bland, Mr. Robert Blackwell, Mrs. M. A. Francis, Mrs. Anna Chandler Brooks, Dr. Eva Dykes, Mrs. Marie Jumper, Miss Josephine Muse, Miss Celestine Lott, Miss Virginia Willaims, Prof. and Mrs. Dorey T Rhodes, Mr. Stanley Brooks, Prof. R. W. Johnson, Mr. J. N. Beason, Miss Mary Europe, Miss Eva V. Johnson Mr. E. N. Broadnax, the "Treble Clet" Club through Mrs. Georgia Goins Fraser. (We desired to invite others but had no addresses. Note how many responded Miss Mary Europe sent this postcard statement: "Thank you for your invitation to assist in organizing the Roland W. Hayes Choral Society. I am however compelled to say that I cannot afford the energy or the time necessary to such a worthy project. Yours very respectfully" . . Prof. J. Henry Lewis sent the following statement by letter: "I have your invitation concerning the call meeting of well known local musicians in connection with The Roland W. Hayes' Choral Society of Washing- Unless they have some guaranty that the basic principles of Republicanism will be lived up to in the future, they can see no reason for preferring a Republican to a Democratic administration. If the pernicious practices introduced into the departments at Washington under Wilson are permitted to remain, why vote for a Republican administration? If the rule of the United States marines is to be continued in Haiti, despite the pledges of President Harding to restore autonomy to that subjugated republic, why vote for a Republican administration? If advancement in the civil service is barred to black men and their appointment blocked in the same manner as under Southern Democratic bureau chiefs, what is the advantage of voting for a change of parties? If a Republican administration fears to appoint a Negro as minister to Haiti because the affairs of that country are run by the American Financial Agent and the marines, as stated by an influential Republican in Washington, why worry about the sins of Democracy? These are the questions that Negro voters are asking. —The New York Age DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM New York, July 1—Sufficient time for a careful study of the Democratic platform having elapsed, colored voters find in it little or nothing of especial appeal to them. The general opinion seems to be that it is more indefinite and silent on questions in which they are particularly interested than the Republican platform, which pledged the party to the enactment of an anti-lynching law and contained other political buncombe. There are three planks in the Democratic platform, which are expected by the politicians to catch the unwary race voter. They are the planks on law enforcement, the Virgin Islands and the anti-Klan planks. After reciting Republican failure to enforce the prohibition law, the law enforcement plank pledges the Democratic party "to respect and enforce (Preface) The invitation read; ton, D.C., and thank you for this courtesy. The invitation is accepted and it will be a pleasure for me to attend, if other engagements do not prevent. Fraternally yours." Mrs. M. A. Francis made inquiry by phone twice promising support to the movement. Twenty-one persons were invited and three responded as noted above. The big question is What Shall Washington do About it? We have no representative choral society and it seems very much like we don't care for any judging by such a flimsy response and meagre interest manifested in the call. This city really is almost dead musically so far as unity of purpose and action is concerned, but there is a wealth of music talent hereabouts grouped into a hundred parts. These various groups may be easily identified but not unionized and that's the one big question—Can It Be Done? If the people of Washington want a Choral Society they could say so by writing their opinion to this column. If not, then keep silent and it shall not be mentioned again in this column by the writer, as we do not wish to waste space on "dead matter". Little Miss Madeline Holmes received a cash award instead of Miss Helen Wright as stated in this column last week in connection with the annual recital by pupils of Mr. Robert Blackwell at Metropolitan Baptist church. Colored Navy Band Here The native Virgin Island Navy Band under the direction of Bandmaster Alvin Adams, arrived in Washington last Tuesday, July 15, for a week's sojourn, giving several public concerts. Mr. Adams is the only colored bandmaster in the United States Naval Service likewise the band. They come well recommended as musicians, much of their success possibly due to the splendid musicianship of their leader, Mr. Adams, who also is a well known music composer of band music at home and abroad. Welcome, thrice welcome, ye sons from across the sea! Legane of Music Lovers Clubs Legale of Music Lovers Clubs The Roland W. Hayes Music Club, located in the northwest section, is planning a fall and winter series of music lectures and musicales by both white and colored musicians in monthly presentations to be given free to the public. All northwest groups are now merged with the Hayes Club and Miss Pearl Samuels is now the acting president of this group. Many started with the organization but as always is the case, the faithful few are still and will continue to "carry on" while the weak fallth. the Constitution and all laws." Independent colored voters look upon this section of the platform as having no reference whatever to the Thirteenth, Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments to the Constitution, which are practically dead in the Democratic stronghold of the "solid south." The intent was not to include these amendments. The Virgin Islands plank would have an especial appeal, but it is too indofinite and means nothing. The Republican platform is silent on this question. The Democratic planks is as follows: "We recommend legislation for the welfare of the inhabitants of the Virgin Islands." The nearest approach to a committal of the Democratic party on a question particularly concerning Negroes is the anti-Klan plank, which concludes with an insistence "at all times upon obedience to the orderly processes of the law and deplore and condemn any effort to arouse religious or racial dissension." Between the two platforms, there is very little for the colored voters to chose. The Republican platform so far as it concerns the Negro is practically meaningless. The Democratic platform says nothing upon the political issues which progressive Negroes advocate. There is no deploring of mob violence and violence. The occupation of Haiti, which was begun by the Democrats and continued under a Republican administration, was not even condemned. But as long as the Taggarts and Brennans are in the majority in the Democratic party, these things should not be expected. PROMINENT ARKANSAS MAN DIES IN PINE BLUFF Pine Bluff, Ark., July—(P. N.

C The Washington Tribune 图 FOR GOVERNMENT CLERKS Philadelphia, Pa., July 3—Declaring that "Negroes in the Government Service, because of unfair treatment, are deeply grieved over the Reclassification Act," the Twenty-Sixth Annual convention of the National Negro Educational Congress adopted a resolution which has been addressed to President Coolidge, stating that "proper allocation, looking to promotion and advancement, means nothing to faithful and dependable Negro clerks." The Congress stated that it felt "justified in protesting against dishonorable tactics and reprehensible methods resorted to by democratic chief clerks and division heads to prevent Negro clerks from receiving the same consideration granted other employees of the Government. The Reclassification Act referred to by the Congress, is a federal remedy for the better classification of Government workers, so as to insure more equitable salaries and opportunities for promotion. It is the application of this Act to which the Congress has taken formal exception ETHIOPIAN PRINCE REVIEWED London, July 17—Ras Taffari, the prince regent of Ethiopia, who arrived in London recently, was received by King George, of England, with all honors due royalty.

The Ethiopian prince and his suite are attracting attention by their picturesque dress and the dignity of their bearing. They are much interested in modern inventions and desire the best civilization for their country. FISKE SINGERS TO SING BEFORE Nashville, Tenn.
