LINCOLN DEFEATS HOWARD 31-0 First in Local Circulation. LINCO RECEIVERS FOR DEFUNCT BANK SOUGHT IN COURT Following on the heels of his suit filed last week in the Municipal Court against the Union Laborers Bank on a Christmas Savings Account claim, Attorney Charles H. Houston on Wednesday filed a bill in the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia, asking that a receiver of the bank be appointed to take charge and wind up its affairs. In addition he made claim against the shareholders of the bank, alleging that they had associated together and actively participated in the business of the bank as partners. If his contention is sustained by the court, it means that each shareholder will be individually liable for all the debts and obligations of the bank. Such a decree by the court would fall like a thunderbolt on many members of the community, as it is rumored that not a few of our well known citizens would be caught in the crash. The Union Laborers Bank for some time operated on the corner of Fourteenth and T Streets, Northwest. It suspended operation last August, and has been out of business ever since. A committee of shareholders has offices now at 1113 U Street, Northwest, but no banking business is done there. Attorney Houston's suit will probably be argued some time in December. AccuseDaughters of Murdering Father Mrs. Teresa Freeman, 23, and her sister, Mrs. Annie Timberlake, 21, of 2709 Eleventh Street, Northwest, are held in the Rockville jail on a charge of murder in connection with the shooting to death of their father, John Green, a well-to-do farmer of Chevy Chase, Md., about noon last Saturday. Confession Mrs. Freeman is said to have confessed the killing. She says she fired to protect her sister who was being attacked with a stick. Another version of the crime is that the shooting resulted from a quarrel over possession of some furniture. This is the story of the affair told by Miss Mary Wrack, a niece of Green's who was at the scene of the murder. Miss Wrack said that the two daughters met at the family place last Saturday and prepared to move the furniture to Washington. Green returned about noon and upbraided them. The three were upstairs. Miss Wrack, who was downstairs, heard a shot fired, she said, and ran into the yard. Soon afterwards, she said, Green fled into the yard. He ran toward the barn, followed by Mrs. Freeman, who fired three times, one shot taking effect in his heart and another in the back. The body was then hidden. Mysterious Phone Call Police of Montgomery county were summoned to the place by a telephone call from an unknown man, who told them that a murder had been committed and the body hidden. Green's body was found hidden under crates, boxes, and old carpets, in the basement of his home by Sheriff Clay Plummer and Deputy Sheriiff C. L. Howard, about 2:20 o'clock Sunday morning after a long search through the dark and deserted house. Sheriff Plummer located Miss Wrack at 2709 Eleventh Street, Northwest. From information obtained from her, he arrested Mrs. Freeman in a hotel on New Jersey The Washington Tribune Part of the Crowd that Witnessed the Big Football Classic Thanksgiving TOP—Inserts: Left to right: Captain Crudop, Lincoln.

"The North Capitol Citizen" is the name of the new publication and its entire news columns are practically devoted to gossip about the sale of property to colored buyers. The editorial staff is made up of eight men who live in this section. The duty imposed upon these editors according to the editorial in the "Citizen," is to serve the interest of the five thousand property owners who will "watch with eager interest for first-hand accounts of the cooperation which their executive committee may receive in the great fight which it has undertaken and which it is so successfully prosecuting for the good of the community." One reason advanced for the issuing of the paper is to combat the growing sentiment against the property owners in the Bloomingdale section and keep up the morale of the citizens, many of whom it is claimed have lost hope of stemming the expansion of colored citizens into that section. The paper has a total of 21 advertisers. It is on the shoulders of the advertisers that the real burden of carrying the paper will fall. How long sensible merchants can be induced into paying for the carrying on of a racial propaganda especially when many of them are openly seeking the business of the colored people who are already in this section, remains to be seen. It is alleged that many of the advertisers were scared into placing their ads in the "Citizen" by threats of a boycott by the whites. However, as it is almost a sure thing that the whites will lose their fight, many of these merchants may be killing their own future.

The great football classic which was played at the Amercian League Park here Thursday, Thanksgiving Day, without a doubt, drew one of the largest and most colorful crowds of the kind ever assembled in America. Coats, hats, and everything. They were all there and in a variety that made the huge concrete stands resemble a human rainbow. Every woman seemed as if she were a manakin for some Parisian modiste. No sporting event in America, regardless of race, carried more color than this football classic. This annual sporting event has, in a comparatively short time, grown from an ordinary football game to be the premiere sporting event of the year. Graduates and friends travel miles to witness the annual contest. Some come from far off California so great is the attraction. Fur coats, and automobiles of every description were as plentiful as calicos and open-top buggies at the once popular camp meetings. Livered chauffeurs graced more than one of these cars. Washington, true to its tradition, tries to out do itself in furnishing clean wholesome entertainment for its thousands of visitors. While the official figures are not known, conservatism estimates place the attendance between 18,000 and 20,000. A little over half of this crowd was made up of local people. The main problem of the visitors was to find good food and a place to sleep. So far, very few complaints of not being able to obtain accommodations have been heard. Local business men measured up to every expectation. The crowd this year is the largest in the history of this event. The handling of this great throng by the local police was complete in every detail. The crowd filtered in and filtered out without any mishap or disorder. This year, the University officials provided sufficient ushers to see that everybody got the seat he paid for. This was a big improvement over past years. While the majority of rooters were for Howard, Lincoln was not without its followers. In fact at times it seemed as if the big crowd was non partisan. Good plays on both sides were well applauded. All in all, the great classic of 1924 goes down in history as one of the greatest racial events of a generation. HIKE FROM CLEVELAND FOR BIG GAME Three pretty Cleveland, Ohio misses, enjoyed the big game possibly more than any one else because they were so anxious to see it that they walked all the way from their home city to Washington. These young girls left Cleveland, November 12th and arrived here noon, November 25th. They experienced many thrills on their hike here. The distance traveled all total was 510 miles. The three young ladies are: Miss Margarette Burford, Miss Corean Cooper and Miss Ida Winston. They are membrbs of the Phi Delta Sorority. This club is composed of business girls of Cleveland. They stopped at the Y. W. C. A., while in the city. Details of the Game Again another "classic" has been recorded in the archives of athletic history. Again the roaring "Lion" of Lincoln has humbled the snorting "Bison" of Howard. Records reveal that only on one previous occasion has a more decisive score been made than the 31 to 0 victory of the Lions of Thanksgiving, 1924. All Lincoln From the Kick-off The first Lincoln touchdown came early in the first period. The visitors had advanced the ball far into Howard's territory from the kick-off, but when things looked real serious for the locals, a forward pass was attempted by Linecoln which Payne intercepted. However, Howard was forced to kick after failing to gain on three downs. Grasty broke through and blocked the kick and Lancaster recovered the ball for Lincoln on the 6-yard line. The Bisons put up a stubborn defense and held for downs. Dodson kicked out of danger to Lincoln's 40-yard line. On the second play, Anderson tossed the oval 18 yards to Lancaster who raced over the line. Crudop added the extra point from placement with Byrd holding the ball.

After many exchanges of kicks, Grasty blocked another of Dodson's punts on Howard's 30-yard line which Crudop picked up on the 12-yard line, but stops outside. Two line bucks gained 5 yards and Goodman hurled the oval to Crudop who was downed on Howard's one-yard line. Bal Taylor took it over and Crudop's toe completed a perfect 7 points, bring the total to 14. Lancaster shortly thereafter scored again when he picked up a Howard fumble and raced 47 yards across the goal line. After this score, McLean received the kick-off for Howard and ran it back 38 yards, being tackled by Byrd with a clear front in front of him. A pass, McLean to Braden, accounted for Howard's initial first down. Kicks were exchanged and Long received a pass from McLean for another first down. The Howard stands were wild. Unsuccessful attempts to split Lincoln's line were tried. Braden then took another pass from McLean and carried the ball to Lincoln's 3-yard line. On the next play Brooks was off-side and Howard was penalized 5 yards. This penalty robbed Howard of an almost sure touchdown. A pass fell into the end zone giving the ball to Linein just as the first half ended. Crudop's Toe Accurate In the third quarter, Lincoln added ten points to her total. An intercepted pass by Morgan and three consecutive first downs with Rod and Lee carrying the ball play. Lincoln close enough to the goal for Crudop to score a placement kick from the 22-yard line. Byrd continued his spectacular work after Howard had tried many incomplete passes and raced around Longo for 44 yards and the last touchdown of the day. Crudop added his fourth point-after-touchdown from placement. Lincoln tried hard in the final period to reach the 42-point mark, which was the margin of Howard in 20. Lee covered 60 yards on an intercepted pass but stepped on the line about midfield. Excel in Every Department In every department of play, Lincoln excelled Howard. The local's line, a veritable stonewall in every game, played so far this year, failed to measure up to the opponents' line. While Dodson got off a number of vi (Continued on page 5). Price 5 Cents ALPHA PHI ALPHA WILL MEET IN NEW YORK New York City—The important factor college fraternities play in the life of Negro college men and the instrument of service in promoting the progress of our race and nation will be more definitively impressed upon the minds of the Colored people of our country this year as the result of the plans now being made for the coming Seventeenth Annual Convention of the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity to be held in New York City, December 27th to 31st, inclusive, declared Norman L. McGhee, National Secretary of the Fraternity. Raymond W. Cannon, National President of the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, with the help of the other National officers, and the officers of the Chapter of New York City, promises to present a most constructive program for the coming convention in New York City. It is predicted that the attendance will reach a thousand this year. This is a fair estimate of attendance since there are more than 2000 members of the Alpha Phi Alpha living within a radius of 300 miles of New York City. The railroads of the country have again granted rates of one and one-half fare on the certificate plan for the round trip to the members of the Fraternity, and dependent members of their families. The Eta Chapter of the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity at New York City is making extensive plans for the accommodation of all those who attend the convention. Dr. P. J. Anderson, President of Eta Chapter in New York City has just announced that W. B. Allison, 204 West 136th Street, has been named Chairman of a Housing Committee and that attorney Thomas B. D. Dyett, 2303 Seventh Avenue, is Chairman of the Publicity Committee. Delegates and visitors to the Convention will be adequately provided for by these committees. The importance of college fraternities can be seen in their various activities. Among the very useful movements they have inaugurated are "Go to High School—Go to College" by Alpha Phi Alpha; "encourage reading of literature of Negro authors" by the Omega Psi Phi; the "Guide Right" movement by the Kappa Alpha Psi.

Our t Manager $100 UP Negro Finance Corporation Growing Durham, N.C., Nov. 24. (By the Associated Negro Press—Dedicating their efforts to the motto "Service to the Race, rather than the making of money" and declaring that, "The future of the Race depends upon our ability to develop business, solve our economic problems and take our places in the commercial world along with other peoples." More than fifty leading business men from various sections of the country, met here last Monday to consider plans to stabilize, strengthen and protect Negro business. The occasion was the formal launch of the new million dollar National Negro Finance Corporation. The group of earnest, capable men of affairs representing in themselves and their institutions resources running into millions, who sat in conference all day studying the plan and program proposed, expressed the unanimous opinion that a step had been taken which means a new era in the commercial life of the Negro and therefore by natural sequence in his social and civil life as well. It was freely admitted that the corporation was destined to be very profitable, but the idea of service is ever to be held uppermost. The organization of the National Negro Finance Corporation, was announced at the Chicago session of the National Negro Business League last August. Dr. Robert R. Moton, is president; Mr. C. C. Spaulding, president of the North Carolina Mutual, is chairman of the executive board; while W. Gomez of the Banker's Fire Insurance Company, of Durham, who is now recognized as one of the organizing geniuses of the Race and under whose direction the plan was finally whipped into workable form is secretary-manager. The purpose of the finance corporation is "Service and Conservation." Its program is to provide working capital for individuals, firms, corporations; to seek and point out new opportunities for profitable efforts; to create and develop a market for listing, exchanging, buying and selling Negro securities; to organize our individual and corporate interests so that they will function in such a way as to bring about a new birth of confidence and assure economic independence; to create and propagate a nation-wide spirit of co-operation, coordination and consolidation; to give the largest possible opportunities for participation in directing, managing and controlling corporate investments, as well as sharing fully in their profits; and to foster and advance by every legitimate means consistent with good business, the financial and commercial development of Negroes. The meeting was called for the purpose, as chairman Spaulding expressed it, of talking over, thinking through, criticising and getting started on the plan. It was clearly established that the men and women of the country are a unit in feeling the need and believing in the possibilities of such an organization as the Finance Corporation. Single Farmer Subscribes $10,000 Some idea of the enthusiastic response of the big business men present to the program when submitted may be gathered from the tremendous subscriptions to stock which they made spontaneously. One man alone, R. J. Beverly, successful farmer of Wadesboro, N.C., whose 1,300 acre farm is one of the finest in his country, rose to his feet, pledged $10,000 and wrote his check for $5,000 on the spot. The Negro Wall Street Parrish Street, Durham, which houses assets of some $50,000,000 was frequently referred to as the Wall Street of Black America. Indeed, it was the consistently successful conduct of big business affairs by the Durham group which won for the "Bull City" the headquarters of the Finance Corporation. As Dr. Moton pointed out, "The men at Durham have demonstrated the possibility of success through cooperation and conservative, constructive method." Some stirring addresses were made—sane, logical, business-like—even though they had a sentimental appeal. Said Chairman Spaulding, "We have here today the cream of the Race when it comes to finance. To wield them together means saving assets of millions which are lost by individuals and firms because they have no place to turn for succor." Ben Davis of Atlanta declared, "We must have faith, the same sort the white man has in his own. We have come to the right men, one on one, can put it across." "My heart is full," said Mrs. Maggie L. Walker of Richmond, Virginia, the only Negro woman bank president in the world LOCAL PHYSICIAN Honored by Y.M.C.A. Since the meeting of the Constitutional Convention of the Young Men's Christian Association which met at Cleveland last year, much interest has been shown concerning the reorganization of movement. It was decided at this convention to change the organization from a more or less self-selected International Committee to a representative body called the National Council which would be elected by the vote of the active members of the local Associations throughout the country. This year, State and Interstate Conventions have been held throughout the country where representatives of local Associations have met on a representative basis to elec- ne members of the first session of the National Council which will meet in Buffalo, N.Y., December 3-6, 1924. Representation both to the local convention and the National Council's based on the active membership of the local Association. The Interstate convention area comprising, Delaware, Maryland and the District of Columbia is divided in two electoral districts, one comprising the Associations of Delaware and eastern Maryland and the other Western Maryland and District of Columbia. Each electoral district is allotted three members on the council. It is interesting to know that Dr. Chas H. Marshall, a well known physician, educator and religious worker of this city, has 1 selected as one of the three delegates representing western Maryland and the District of Columbia, which area has practically a negligible colored vote. An official account of the actual relation between the colored and the white vote among the association of this district shows that of a total active voting membership of 3,000 only 205 were colored. This means that Dr. Marshall goes to the National Council not merely as a representative of the colored association, but of the white associations of this district as well, having been selected by an overwhelming majority of the white associations. The other two representatives selected from this district are Mr. Hugh A. Thrift, President of the Young Men's Christian Association, city of Washington and Mr. William Knowles Cooper, General Secretary of the Washington Association and acting Secretary of the Interstate area of Delaware, Maryland and District of Columbia. It was largely through the efforts of these two men that the election of Dr. Marshall was made possible. They stood firmly for the recognition of the colored work in this district. In selecting Dr. Marshall they said that the Young Men's Christian Association not only honored Dr. Marshall but honored itself in selecting one of the outstanding Christian, Iaymen of Maryland and the District of Columba regardless of race. When the National Council, which is composed of approximately 445 members, meets in Buffalo on December 3rd there will be six colored members present. They are Dr. Chas. H. Marshall of Washington, D.C.; Prof. J. W. Barco of Richmond, Virginia; Dr. M. W. Dogan of Marshall, Texas; and Dr. W. T. Nelson of Cincinnati, Ohio. In addition to these members of the Council there will be present Dr. R. R. Moton of Tuskegee, who, as a member of the Committee of thirty-three of the outgoing International Committee, has been active in arranging for the Council meeting and Dr. C. H. Tobias, senior secretary of the Colored Men's Department of the International Committee. The National Council is the law-making body of the Association Movement.

Phone, N. 5292 Omega Psi Phi Meets Here The Thirteenth Annual Convention of the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity will meet in Washington, D.C., December 27-31, 1924. The fraternity was organized at Howard University thirteen years ago, having the distinction of being the first college Greek letter Fraternity to be organized in a Colored institution of learning. From the original Alpha Chapter at Howard the fraternity has grown until now it has fifty chapters in the leading schools of this country and Canada. It is expected that more than five hundred delegates and members will attend. Much interest centers around the meeting in Washington this year as it is the first time the conclave has even met at the seat of the Alpha Chapter since the beginning of the great expansion program of the fraternity immediately after the war. From an organization composed of a few chapters on the Atlantic Seaboard the expansion program has developed Omega until now it stretches into the far southwest and to the Pacific Coast and Canada, making it the first colored college Greek letter fraternity to become international in scope. Last year the fraternity was guest of the Upsilon Omega Chapter at St. Louis, Mo. At this meeting the two great metropolitan centers of the country, New York and Chicago, made strong bids for the thirteenth session, but partly from sentimental reasons and partly through a desire of the chapters to hold the next session near the center of distribution of the older chapters where the meeting could take on the aspect of a grand reunion rather than merely that of a formal business gathering, Washington was decided upon. Dr. C. Herbert Marshal, who has charge of the arrangements for the convention says that the business and social program which has been arranged will serve to give even to the people of the capital city a new and finer idea of the place which the College Greek letter fraternity has rightly assumed in the educational, professional and civic life of the race. The Howard University authorities have offered every courtesy to make the social feature of the convention a success. The open meeting, which will be addressed by Dr. J. W. E. Bowen, of Atlanta, Ga., will be held in Andrew Rankin Memorial Chapel on the campus. Dr. J. Stanley Durke, the president of Howard, will welcome the fraternity on behalf of the University and the citizens of Washington. William Stuart Nelson, of the faculty of the College of Liberal Arts and the School of Religion of the University, will also speak.

INDUSTRY TO BE EMPHASIZED AT URBAN LEAGUE New York City—One of the principal subjects for discussion at the Annual Urban League Conference in Cleveland, Ohio, beginning Tuesday next, December 2, will be The Negro in Industry. This is considered most important by the officials of the League in view of the recent reports of the speeding up of those industries which Negroes have entered most largely during the recent migration period. Several representatives of the United States Department of Labor as well as the Urban League specialists on industry will participate in the discussion. Secretary James J. Davis of the United States Labor Department accepted an invitation to be present some months ago as well as Karl Phillips, Commissioner of Conciliation. Personnel workers from the Pittsburgh Steel District and representatives of the largest northern Ohio plants will discuss the efficiency and increasing opportunity of Negro workers. The National Urban League is about to launch a National Industrial Program which will seek to standardize its local employment service, develop better relations between white and colored workers, and establish more personnel activities in the plants where Negroes are employed in large numbers. Round table discussion on this and other problems faced by the League will be the order of the day in the morning and afternoon sessions and at the evening sessions such persons as Miss Jane Addams, Mrs. Mary McLeod Bethune, L. Hollingsworth Wood, James J. Davis, James Weldon Johnson, Eugene Kinckle Jones and Professor Herbert Adolphus Miller of Ohio State University will speak. The officers of the Cleveland Negro Welfare Association (Cleveland Urban League) 2554 East 40th Street, who will entertain the Conference are Dr. Q. A. Taylor, president; Rev. F. Q.

The Howard team lay for Byrd in the early part of the conflict, but the Lincoln coaches evidently had ordered that their star be saved for the final period and Byrd carried the ball but three times in the first haly. Lincoln surpassed Howard by far in the running game. On only three occasions did the Bisons have the ball in Lincoln's territory. Many Lincoln Stars There were many Lincoln stars. Lancaster Crudup, Grasty, Byrd and More easily outshone their teammate. Lancaster gave a wonderful exhibition of end play. Crudup was good defensively, while his toe added seven points to Lincoln's total. It was Grasty that blocked the two Howard punts that paved the way for Lincoln touchdowns. "Jazz" Byrd, a real star, who was held under cover for the first half, opened the eyes of the spectators with a number of sensational dashes in the final period. Morgan's passing from center was enough to give him honorable mention; and time and again Lincoln backs followed him through the center of the Howard line for big gains. Calloway and Henry helped Morgan to make the center of the Lions' line in acceptable. Lee, aside from punting, outgained every back on the field. McLean was Howard's entire offense. Once or twice he threatened to run through the Lincoln team but one man was always there to stop him. He threw most of Howard's passes, a few of which netted long gains.

First Time Real Status in New Salary Bill Explained How and where they stood was in substance the aim of a lecture delivered by Dr. Frank W. Ballou, Superintendent of schools, to the teachers of divisions 10 to 13, in a lecture Friday afternoon of last week, at the Dunbar High School, when the speaker explained to those present what the new salary bill expected them to do and what was necessary before a promotion in any branch of the service could be considered. This address, through invitation from the teachers' council, was the opening of a series, voted on by the teachers, as a supplementary feature to the annual institute to be held January 30, 1925. The superintendent treated the various phases of his subject in such a manner, as to impress those who heard him that their profession in the future must regard merit as the cause for promotion and that the teachers owed it to themselves and the children they taught to see that the highest professional code was kept. The school head devoted considerable time to the Junior High School situation and freely admitted that much care was used in the selection of a principal for that particular type of school, giving in detail the method that the present school administration was following. The lecturer also paid a splendid tribute to those, who, through past labors, were responsible for the high standard of the Washington school system and predicted that in years --- --- Baptist Women To Meet (Continued from page 1) who also has just been recently appointed social worker by the general convention to look after juvenile delinquents of that denomination, has some very interesting reports in connection with her work.

PARKER Handicaps of the Progressive Movement Why the World War? Many make light of the recent showing of the movement, but do they consider carefully the several Do they take into consideration the shortness of the the little support given by newspapers, the insufficie Many make light of the recent showing of the progressive movement, but do they consider carefully the several handicaps? Do they take into consideration the shortness of the campaign, the little support given by newspapers, the insufficient fund for legitimate expenses or the intimidation of the working class by big business interests? Some of these handicaps may be removed when the party is reorganized or a new political party formed for the campaign of 1928, but little can be expected as to the increasing of funds or as to mitigating the intimidation of wage earners by big business. Many of those behind the movement, especially editors of influential papers, were afraid to risk their careers in the support of a new party. Men are human and selfish, and in politics they are ambitious and jealous of their party standing. politics they are (I. L. Parker) party standing.

Looking at it from that point of view, it would be hard to find anything more impressive than the resourcefulness or luck—which carries one unscathed through such "a convulsion of nature." An ingenious person could spend weeks, months, years, writing volumes explaining the "how's" and "why." But, is not my friend wrong? Are not all historians wrong in thus designating the international, economical, social explosion known as the World War? Was it "a convulsion of nature"—something thrown up accidentally; a by-product? The terror, the method in the madness, gives rise to the belief that it was a man-made thing, engineered for profit by some shrewd rascals of the day. Consequently, believing thus, it was absolutely necessary, essential; the sine qua non, the only means to the end The World War was not for justice nor for equality, but for envy, malice, hatred and cupidity. True, many entered with altruistic aims, but those actually responsible had no such intent—theirs were to oust certain aristocracies and to take their places. We entered, so we say, "to make the world safe for democracy"; but in reality we entered to secure certain consolidated gains of a campaign in brigandage. It may be inexpedient to express such an idea, yet we can not prevail upon ourselves to believe otherwise, since there is so much selfishness and such a variety of methods for gaining self-advantage. to come those now struggling would get a similar reward. Discussing the retirement bill and pointing out that there were some irregularities existing in the measure, the speaker urged the teachers to look into the affair at once and not rest until these matters were properly corrected. COLORED CHAUFFEURS FETED BY LOCAL AUTO SUPPLY COMPANY The 17th and R Street, Auto Supply Company gave their 2nd Annual Ball for the benefit of The Colored Chauffeurs, of Washington, D.C., Friday, November 21st, at Odd Fellows Hall, 1606 M Street, Northwest.

Only one other armory anywhere has a larger floor space. The new drill shed in Hailey is 200x300 feet with 60,000 square feet of space. Utilizing both the floor and gallery, seating accommodations can be provided for 25,000 people. The 369th is unique in that it has a staff of white and colored officers. Of the fifty-four commissioned men twenty-three are colored, among whom are major, regimental adjutant and chaplain. The enlisted men have been recruited to 1,296. In September of this year the 369th was Federalized, and is the only Negro regiment, with the exception of the 8th Illinois, that has been made one of the units of Uncle Sam's standing army. From September 7 to 21, Col. Little's troopers engaged in the annual field training at Peekskill. CITIZENS OF BLOOMINGDALE START OWN PAPER CITIZENS OF BLOOMINGDALE START OWN PAPER Mrs. L. P.

These signs are to be placed in the windows of the home so the inquisitive public will know that a "pure white' family lives there and is desirous of renting or selling their home to some other good "pure white" family. In some articles in the paper the editors spelled the word Negro with a small "n" while in others, they used capital. St. Martin's Council of the N.C.C.M. Catholic Church is one of the big boosters of the paper as is also the Eckington Presbyterian Church. The North Capitol and Eckington Citizens' Association is also strong supporters of the "pure white" paper. One of the officials of the association is a member of the editorial staff, Jesse W. Morgan, of 47 Seaton Place, Northwest. Another big member in this association which is practically entirely responsible for the ill feeling now being manufactured in this section, is Selden M. Ely. Ely is president of the association. He is a prominent teacher in the Public School system. The one editorial which purposes to set forth the whys and the policy of the paper states in part as follows: "The Mass Meeting of Bloomingdale Owners has gone down in history, but the community spirit which it developed, still lives and, we hope, will go on forever. One of the clergymen, at this mass meeting, suggested the publication of a community newspaper, and the Executive Committee has been prompt to act on the suggestion "The purpose of this paper is to publish news of especial interest to the residents of Bloomingdale and vicinity. This will include news of the churches, both Catholic and Protestant. Of our two Citizens' Associations and of other societies and organizations located in this section. We shall also report the activities of the Executive Committee and the facts developed in the course of its investigations, the progress being made in litigations which it has in charge, and other matters vitally affecting the welfare-of the community. . . . It is a fine thing when one having property for sale unselfishly declines an attractive offer rather than transfer his home to a purchaser who may not be desirable to his neighbors. Such a one deserves the strongest commendation of all other owners; he merits their good will and assistance in his business; he is the type with whom they may be proud to associate and acclaim as one of their own; he may look his fellow men in the face without shame and find them glad to return his greeting; he may go to his rest at night with a clear conscience, and when the time comes for him to depart this life, he will not regret that he refused to betray his neighbors for a sum of money which could do him but little good in this world and none at all in the next. --- The tablets in question were erected in commemoration of deceased employees of the Register's office who served in the World War. "I feel sure there was no intended partiality or discrimination in either the minds or action of those who planned this commemoration, but in order that no further uncertainty of the impartiality of the Treasury should continue, and that the colored people generally may have complete assurance of the desire of the Register's employees to accord the services of both white and colored soldiers like recognition, the employees have arranged for the substitution of a framed scroll upon which will be inscribed, in alphabetical arrangement, the names of the five deceased employees, both white and colored, who served in the World War. "Secretary of the Treasury." Last Monday morning when the employees arrived for work they found that the two tablets in the lobby of the building had been taken down. Later in the day the framed scroll was substituted. Colored Y Work Gains New York City,—Substantial gains are noted in the work of the Y.M.C.A. among colored men and boys throughout the country during the past year, according to a statement just issued by Channing H. Tobias, senior secretary of the National committee. The statement is based upon facts exhibited in the recently published year book of the organization.

As to those who are not big enough to consider the community a welfare at this time, whose greed for gain tempts them to brush aside all consideration for others—if there be any such in our midst, the least said about them the better. One of the duties enjoined upon the Executive Committee by the resolution adopted at the mass meeting is to give the widest publicity to all the facts developed in the course of its investigation. In obeying this mandate, we shall confine ourselves to a publication of the facts, withholding comment when we cannot praise, leaving the facts to speak for themselves." Separate Tablets Removed The two separate tablets erected in the office of the Register of the Treasury in memory of the deceased employee of that office who served in army during the world war, have been down. A scroll containing all alphabetically arranged has been instituted. These two documents erected after the Register of the Treasury had entered into an agreement with colored employees not to unveil them. They had protested against the drawing of the color line, and he had reluctantly agreed to have made one tablet containing all five names, for which the colored employees would pay. The next morning, however, the two tablets had been unveiled. Numerous protests were then filed with the President. He referred the matter to the Secretary of the Treasury. After an investigation, Mr. Mellon wrote Captain West A. Hamilton, commander of the James E.

CHARLES COTTRILL PASSES AWAY Toledo, Ohio, Nov. 24—Funeral rites for Charles Cottrill were held here today. He died last Saturday. Mr. Cottrill was very prominent in political and fraternal circles. He was collector of internal revenue at Honolulu under President Taft. He was one of three who managed the Republican campaign among colored voters in 1920. At the Republican Convention in Cleveland last June, he was an assistant reading clerk. Mr. Cottrill and the late President Warren G. Harding were close friends. After the inauguration on March 4, 1921, Mr. Cottrill sought appointment as Registrar of the Treasury, but for some reason the late President refused to appoint him. His friends think that this disappointment hastened his untimely death. R. D.

COLD WATER CRACKS A HOT GLASS Strange as it may seem, the thicker the glass the quicker it cracks, when cold water is poured into a hot glass or when hot water is poured into a cold glass. In filling an ordinary glass with hot water, the heat is conducted from the water to the glass, which immediately expands or stretches in the inside. But, as the outside is still cool it cracks from the stretched capacity of theinner lining. In filling a hot ordinary glass with cold water, the inside contracts or shrinks before the outside does, and a crack results. Very Well Mary W, your writing with a pencil is all right.

There would be snow for Thanksgiving, but what difference would that make? For, snow or no snow, Thanksgiving wouldn't seem like Thanksgiving without a turkey. There had been a turkey, of course, a fine fat one which they had helped raise themselves ever since he was old enough to wander around the barnyard. But he had run away. They had discovered it after gradmother and grandfather had driven to town for the rest of the Thanksgiving fixings. "Let's go out and see Julius Caesar," Barrett had said. So betty had slipped into her hood and coat and had followed him out doors. Straight out to the barnyard they had gone, but no Julius Casear was in sight. "He may have gone inside the barn," Betty had suggested. So into the barn they had gone, but search as they might, there was no turkey to be found. "Isn't it strange?" Barrett had asked. "It almost looks as though he knew what is going to happen to him, and has run away." "If he has, he's a wise turkey," his sister had replied. Still, unwilling to give up, they had searched longer. All around the farm yard and into its most out-of-the-way corners they went, but it was of no use. Finally Barret had said, "Let's call Shep. He'll help us look." So they called Shep, the collie, who was usually tagging at their heels. But no Shep had replied to Barret's shrill whistle. "It's the furiest thing I ever heard of," Barrett had declared at last. "First we discover that Julius Caesar has run away, and then we find that Shep has gone, too. We'd better go in, Betty. The snow's getting pretty thick." So back to the house they had waded in the fast-deepening snow. Grandfather and grandmother returned in a blinding snowstorm which was so thick it seemed as though old Moll, the horse could never make her way through it. "The drifts are piling all over the yard," Barrett told his sister when he returned from the barn, where he had gone to help unharness old Moll. "And we won't have any turkey for THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 29, 1924 Thanksgiving, Betty, for nobody can get through this storm to get another." "I wouldn't care, if I thought Julius Caesar was safe," replied Betty, half crying. "I don't like to think of him wandering out in the snow and freezing to death. Shep can take care of himself, I know, but a poor turkey can't." Morning found the snow piled high and white everywhere. Barrett called his sister. "Betty, I hear a dog barking,—it sounds like Shep. Maybe he's come back. Let's get dressed and go look in the doghouse." Before they had reached it, they were greeted by Shep, who came bounding through the snow from the road, quite unharmed by his night out of doors. He jumped about them joyously then he ran ahead to his house. At the door he peered in barked, and came running back to the brother and sister. Betty threw dow her shovel. "I'm too tired to sit any more she said. "Now we have Shep, but not bother." But Barrett kept on shovelling. "I thought Shep acted strange," he said. "Maybeb there's a little animal in his house." So Betty picked up her shovel again. In a few moments they were resting, breathless, in front of Shep's home. But as they stood there, a strange greeting met their ears. It was very faint, but both started back in surprise. Then it was repeated. "Gooble. gobble!" “It’s Julius Caesar,” cried Betty. But already Barrett was on his knees before the doghouse. Within crouched Julius Caesar, looking very cold and forlorn. Reaching in, the they drew the half frozen turkey out. Together they cupped it on to the house. She stood about them each step of the floor. Food and warmth soon revived him, and he became quite lively once more. "Anyhow, we have a turkey for Thanksgiving, even if it is a live one," laughed Barrett. "And a wise one," added his sister. BUDDIES! BUDDIES!! BUDDIES!!!

As this key was kept in the vestibule of the Young home, and was missing immediately after the cutting, this definitely placed the blame on Paden, < James Paden roomed in the Young home up to about five weeks ago when he left and went to Richmond, Va., his home. He returned a little over a week ago and asked Mrs. Young if he could have his old room. He was told that he could not as Mrs, Young’s daughter was to be married and was to occupy the room. He became an- gry and began arguing with Mrs. ‘Young. He returned about two days later and tried to gain entrance to the house but failed. So he again re- turned Friday morning and after ob- taning the key which-usually hung in the vestibule he tipped up to the room occupied by Mrs. Young. Mr. Young works at the Post Office at night, he was not at home and Mrs. Young occupied the room alone. Mrs. Young’s screams attracted her daugh- ter Mrs. Helen Davis, who came to her mother’s assistance. Paden, in running out, struek Mrs. Davis, but the hall was so dark, she was un- able to identify him, Mr. William R, Young, a son of Mrs, Young was also awakened by the screams but before he could get down stairs, Paden had reached the street and vanished down Third Street. It is believed. that James Paden was a user of dope as it is said that at times he acted very queerly. Letters received’by the Young s from his sis- ter in Richmond, state that during his visit there, he stole $250 and an over coat from his sister’s home. Upon his recovery, he will be held on a charge of assault with a dan- gerous weapon, HAITIAN MINISTER HERE PROMOTED Leon Dejean, minister to the United States from Haiti, has been appointed to the post of minister of foreign affairs of the Haitian government, it has been announced at the legation. ‘The date of his assuming office has not been made public.
